Qin Ning's importance far exceeds that of Chen Tingting.
"...But you're saying you don't like me, right?"
Bai Weiran took a deep breath and remained silent for a few seconds.
"I never intended to like you from the beginning, Qin Ning. I never considered you as a potential romantic partner."
“Our meeting was bizarre. You met me when you were being emotionally manipulated and your emotions were extremely unstable. I knew everything about you, but you knew nothing about me. Moreover, I had superhuman abilities, and you were powerless to resist. In fact, our positions were not equal.”
"Do you understand? Your current feelings are likely another kind of illusion, just like when you were infatuated with Lin Luo, and now you're transferring that infatuation onto me."
"I don't think your feelings are born under normal circumstances."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ning blinked, but instead of getting angry, she chuckled.
“Masked man, do you know what you’ve got this problem? You start arguing when you feel guilty.”
"It's like you clearly disliked your ex-girlfriend, but you still put on a bunch of excuses for me back then. In any relationship, no one is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes."
"Can you use your logic properly and just answer my question directly—"
You don't like me, do you?
Yes, or no.
She insisted on a choice between two options.
Bai Weiran opened her mouth, then closed it again, and finally pursed her lips.
Qin Ning is indeed very smart; she has already figured herself out.
He simply couldn't answer that question directly.
His feelings for Qin Ning were complicated at first. When he first got to know her, he clearly created a defense in his mind. But if someone asked him, "If Qin Ning really appeared in your life, would you like her?"
He would have said at the time, "I wouldn't even think about a problem that's unlikely to happen."
Now that it has happened, he is conflicted and cannot come to an answer.
His silence made Qin Ning smile again.
The masked man is tough-talking, articulate, and eloquent, but when it comes to kissing, he's soft-hearted.
"I can let her go," the girl said, giggling.
"I've already said it, give me a man in return."
The two looked at each other through the glass door.
Bai Weiran's expression changed slightly, and then his tone turned cold.
"Then don't let her go!"
He firmly and directly rejected Qin Ning's request.
"I don't remember teaching you anything like this. I was completely lost during that time, and all that talking to you only gave you a few more theoretical and eloquent arguments."
He was actually angry.
Yes, Bai Weiran was unhappy.
He couldn't accept that Qin Ning would force a relationship to make him submit, even at the cost of breaking the law. He worried that she would have a criminal record, while Qin Ning was only focused on pursuing love and disregarded everything else.
"...People must first learn to respect and love themselves."
"If you still don't understand this principle, I have nothing more to say!" Bai Weiran coldly said and hung up the phone.
It doesn't matter, he can outlast Qin Ning anyway.
Even if he stays on this balcony and can't go out, he can go to another world to eat and sleep, satisfying all his physiological needs. Qin Ning can't force him.
Qin Ning was caught off guard by the criticism.
He actually hung up on her!?
She called back, but Bai Weiran didn't answer. He hung up the phone in front of her, turned his back to her, and gazed into the distance.
He finally answered on the third call.
"What do you want to say?" he preemptively asked.
"If you're going to keep threatening me with Chen Tingting's safety, then forget it."
“She’s my ex-girlfriend, not my mom. I wouldn’t even have time to sacrifice myself for my mom, so of course I wouldn’t sacrifice myself for her. And let me make this clear first, I won’t bow down to people who hurt my people. I will only fight back for them.”
Even without superpowers, Bai Weiran is still Bai Weiran.
Superpowers are just icing on the cake, but his ability to subdue yandere is something he already possesses.
Qin Ning was so speechless that she was completely shut down.
After a long silence, her voice became softer.
"...So what do you want?"
She understood that when Bai Weiran got angry, he was capable of being ruthless.
Moreover, once his bottom line is crossed, such as the incident where Lin Luo was drugged, he can ruthlessly make him dance to a high-altitude rave on the beach all night.
Apart from that, no matter how Lin Luo tried to bully him, belittled him, or insulted him, or put on that melancholy face in front of him, he remained unmoved.
“I’m definitely going to have you too.” She stared at him, declaring her resolve.
“…Give each other some time,” Bai Weiran said slowly.
"We all need to figure out how we are feeling right now."
He needs it, and she needs it too.
He needs to detach Qin Ning from the identity of the mission target, and Qin Ning needs to detach herself from the identity of the omnipotent superhuman, so that they can both be treated as real people around them.
The impressions they left behind contained some unrealistic elements.
Qin Ning didn't feel she needed to figure it out at all; she knew far more than he did.
But Bai Weiran is the kind of person who thinks things through before acting.
Since he's not running away, she'll always find a way.
She accepted Bai Weiran's explanation and opened the balcony door.
Xx
When Chen Tingting saw Bai Weiran push open the door, she was so excited that tears streamed down her face. Bai Weiran saw Chen Tingting tied up like a crab about to be steamed, and gave Qin Ning a speechless look. Qin Ning glared back at him with great dissatisfaction.
I only slapped her foot, isn't that enough to give you face?
It was Da Suo who came over and untied Chen Tingting. As soon as she was freed, Chen Tingting tried to throw herself into Bai Weiran's arms, but Bai Weiran quickly reached out and held her down, preventing her from succeeding. Chen Tingting was confused, but her anger made her ignore all of that and she pointed at Qin Ning and accused her.
"Call the police! This is outrageous! Your company's intern is insane! She kidnapped me and beat me! We have to call the police; this kind of criminal cannot be tolerated!"
Bai Weiran's answer was completely unexpected by Chen Tingting.
"It's a misunderstanding," he said.
"She was just playing a little joke on you."
"I already talked to her outside. It was a joke, she will..." Bai Weiran glanced at Qin Ning and reluctantly changed his words.
"I apologize on her behalf; she frightened you."
Getting a yandere to apologize would probably have to wait until the end of the world.
Chen Tingting's eyes widened, and she was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she raised her voice and accused him.
"You're still protecting her? Bai Weiran, are you out of your mind? You're even protecting her for this kind of behavior? Do you want to turn her into a crazed criminal? This kind of person should be sent to the police station and properly dealt with!!"
Bai Weiran: ...
He was exasperated by his ex-girlfriend's utter obtuseness at that moment.
She's always been quite pragmatic and has a keen eye, so how come she can't see now that the interior is obviously expensively decorated and that there's a bodyguard by her side?
Isn't that enough to demonstrate that Qin Ning is of noble and wealthy status, and is extraordinary?
In order to calm Chen Tingting down, he simply told her the truth.
“Tingting, Qin Ning is my boss. She’s not an intern. She holds shares in Shile Company, just like the other founders. She’s the owner of Shile Company. You offended her during your visit to Rednet last time, and she’s very unhappy. That’s why she’s trying to mess with you today.”
Chen Tingting was stunned.
There are two extreme situations in how the world treats the rich.
One type is those who resent the rich, firmly believing that wealthy people are people who have lost their conscience and became rich by not taking the right path.
One type is those who idolize wealth, praising the rich to the extreme, spouting profound truths, and acting with reason and evidence.
Bai Weiran knew that his ex-girlfriend belonged to the latter category.
When Qin Ning's identity was revealed, she was stunned. Her gaze shifted to Qin Ning, and shock, anger, resentment, jealousy, and other complex emotions intertwined on her face.
If she had known Qin Ning's identity from the beginning, perhaps she could have kept her composure. But now that she knows, and with a man caught in the middle pulling in her way, Chen Tingting finds it hard to swallow her anger. She can't be as flexible as usual and change her expression as easily.
"So what if he's the boss of Shile Company?" she retorted, raising her chin indignantly.
"So you're going to indulge her, Bai Weiran? You're going to spoil her!?"
"Are you still working for this kind of boss? His actions are dishonest and his words are disrespectful. I misjudged you; I thought you would never tolerate this kind of behavior!!"
Chen Tingting felt like a mermaid princess with her feet on the ground, both in pain and swollen, and reached out to pull Bai Weiran.
"Not only do you condone this kind of misconduct, but you don't even care about me anymore? I was bullied by her today!"
Chen Tingting was terrified all night and felt extremely wronged. She insisted that her ex-boyfriend stand on her side.
Even if they broke up, he shouldn't have sided with the other person.
The imperious and emotionally manipulative tone that was inadvertently revealed in her words made Qin Ning's eyes darken.
Bai Weiran noticed this.
It's so numb. If you're going to argue, can't you go outside and argue first?
The yandere is making a fuss about this; she's got a death wish. Who knows, she might want to slap someone else next time.
Bai Weiran was right. At that moment, Qin Ning was staring at Chen Tingting's still-full chest, darkly thinking that he would slap her breasts next time and flatten those two mounds.
Bai Weiran pushed Chen Tingting away, his tone solemn.
