Villain: He humiliated the protagonist's sister, but she fell in love with him.

Before we knew it, it was evening.

Inside the Jiangcheng Grand Hotel.

Lin Ba had barely sat down when a series of footsteps approached.

He looked up and was momentarily stunned.

Tang Rui changed out of her police uniform and was now wearing a white dress, which accentuated her slender waist.

Even the exaggerated parts were due to Tang Rui swaying slightly as she walked.

Beneath the skirt, a section of fair and slender calves was revealed...

As expected of one of the female leads, Lin Ba couldn't help but take a second look.

Tang Rui felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, her ears secretly turning pink, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that choosing this dress specifically for tonight was worthwhile.

She certainly noticed Lin Ba's gaze, but instead of feeling offended, she felt a secret delight.

She rushed home after get off work to change into this dress, and stood in front of the mirror for a full twenty minutes before deciding to wear it.

Of course, if Ye Bufan stared at her like that, Tang Rui would definitely pull out her stun gun without saying a word...

After Tang Rui sat down, Lin Ba handed her the ordering tablet and told her to order first.

Tang Rui didn't refuse. She ordered a few dishes on the control panel and then handed them back to Lin Ba.

Lin Ba took it and looked at it, then joked.

"I didn't expect Sister Rui Rui to order all my favorite dishes!"

Tang Rui smiled gently, as if the person opposite her was still the younger brother she knew from childhood.

"I'm glad you like it. Looks like I remembered correctly, haha!"

"but......"

Lin Ba changed the subject.

"And there's one more dish I love, Sister Rui Rui, you haven't ordered it yet~"

Tang Rui was a little confused; she shouldn't have remembered wrong.

"Brother Lin Ba, which dish is it?"

Faced with Tang Rui's question, Lin Ba did not choose to answer, but instead stared straight at Tang Rui.

Tang Rui noticed Lin Ba's unwavering gaze and seemed to realize something.

Her face flushed unconsciously.

If her colleagues saw this, they would be absolutely stunned.

After all, in their minds, Tang Rui was a cool and aloof policewoman!

How could she possibly have such a shy expression!

Tang Rui felt a little uncomfortable under Lin Ba's gaze and subconsciously wanted to pick up her teacup to take a sip of water.

Before she knew it, the tea sloshed around the rim of the cup and spilled out, landing squarely on her.

The tea flowed slowly down her fair neck, past her collarbone, and then into...

Lin Ba stared wide-eyed at the scene from the other side.

Okay, okay, so you're going to use this to test the cadres?!

"Oh! I'm sorry!"

Tang Rui, realizing what was happening, tried to find a tissue to wipe herself.

"Don't move, I'll do it."

Seeing this, Lin Ba pulled out a few clean tissues from the table.

Before Tang Rui could refuse, Lin Ba leaned over and pressed down on the wet patch for her.

My fingertips touched the damp fabric of her chest through the tissue, the warmth and coolness mingling together...

Lin Ba lowered his head and "seriously" wiped away the water stains...

Tang Rui froze, her eyes lowered, not daring to look at him. She felt her cheeks burning hot and her heart was racing.

According to normal procedure, I should have refused Lin Ba.

But why can't I even muster the slightest thought of refusing?

Isn't this a bit too ambiguous...?

However, at that moment, in a corner a few tables away, a slender figure was staring intently at this scene.

Su Yuqing and her best friend Xiaofang had been shopping all day, so they came to this restaurant for a meal.

Unexpectedly, not long after I sat down, I caught a glimpse of Lin Ba's back.

Just as she was about to get up to greet him, she saw a woman sitting opposite Lin Ba.

Su Yuqing's smile froze instantly.

That woman was just as beautiful as her.

And most importantly!

That woman could actually lower her head so low that you couldn't see her toes.

Thinking of herself, Su Yuqing subconsciously looked down at herself.

At that moment, she felt a deep sense of inferiority.

However, it wasn't long before she saw that the two of them were so close that they were almost touching.

Su Yuqing's nose tingled, and her eyes reddened.

She felt terrible. She had helped Lin Ba so much, yet Lin Ba treated her like this!

It hurts, it hurts so much!!!

Growing increasingly angry, she slammed down her chopsticks, stood up, grabbed her bag, and said to the bewildered Xiaofang:

"Xiaofang... I... I suddenly feel a little unwell, let's go to another restaurant."

Before Xiaofang could react, Su Yuqing had already pulled her around and quickly walked towards the door.

At that moment, she felt like a helpless wife, unable to do anything...

[Ding! Host humiliated Su Yuqing, congratulations on obtaining a potent veterinary drug bullet!]

Lin Ba was completely bewildered after wiping the water stains off Tang Rui.

What the heck is this system message?

Is the name wrong? If there's going to be a hint, it should be Tang Rui!

But then, Lin Ba seemed to realize something.

It's possible that Su Yuqing saw his date with Tang Rui.

He quickly looked around and, sure enough, saw two figures hurrying away in the distance.

One of the figures was Su Yuqing.

However, Lin Ba had no intention of apologizing or anything like that.

This kind of situation was bound to happen sooner or later, so it's better to let her know sooner rather than later...

Moreover, as a qualified villain, Lin Ba naturally wants it all!

At worst, we can just stage a few more hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenes, hehehe!

Tang Rui saw Lin Ba's inexplicable sinister smile, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.

This guy, is he thinking of something weird or strange?

He is the male lead, and she is the female lead...

No, we can't let Lin Ba have such wild thoughts!

Tang Rui decided to interrupt him.

"Little brother Lin Ba, are you thinking about some strange things? Isn't that a bit inappropriate...?"

Lin Ba's face darkened as he realized what was happening.

You're the one who's thinking the wrong thing, okay?

Lin Ba quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, did you find the stun gun I gave you useful?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Rui's attention was indeed diverted, and she couldn't help but complain:

"Of course, you didn't see it. That scoundrel surnamed Ye dared to talk back to me in the interrogation room. If you hadn't given me that stun gun, I think I would have been disgusted to death."

"But speaking of which, that thug's physical resistance to electricity is really amazing. I had to shock him several times before he confessed!"

Lin Ba nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"But it's resistant to electricity!"

After all, he's the chosen one, and he's at the peak of the Dark Force realm, so it's normal for him to be a bit resistant to electricity!

Lin Ba silently mourned for Ye Bufan for a few seconds.

Then, as if remembering something, he pressed on with the question:

"By the way, Sister Rui Rui, how many days was Ye Bufan sentenced to?"

"Seven days in detention? If the security camera hadn't been broken, they probably would have let him stay a few more days!"

Tang Rui said with some relief.

Lin Ba thought for a moment. Seven days was the perfect opportunity to seize the chance shown on that map...
