Chapter 26: Leisurely Days!
“Uncle Lin, I’m here today regarding the video online,” Su Yanfei said, in no rush to arrest anyone. After all, Lin Tai was right here, and he couldn’t escape. Besides, she knew Lin Zhentian’s upright character; even though he doted on his son, he would never allow him to commit cris. In her previous life, she had easily taken Lin Tai away from the Lin family and personally sent him to the detention center.
“I know,” Lin Zhentian said, taking a deep breath. “Son, if you’ve done sothing wrong, you must face the consequences. Go.”
“I understand,” Lin Tai replied without saying much. His feelings for Lin Zhentian went beyond re familial bonds; he admired his father’s integrity and uprightness. As a father, he pampered his son, but as a citizen, he understood the importance of upholding the law.
“Officer Su, let’s go,” Lin Tai said, proactively extending both hands toward Su Yanfei.
“No need for handcuffs,” Su Yanfei said, her gaze softening. Just like in her previous life, Lin Tai didn’t resist at all. It was from this mont in her previous life that she began to see him in a new light. This so-called “wastrel of the capital” rumored by the outside world didn’t seem as deplorable as people claid—at least he had the courage to take responsibility.
Su Yanfei gently took Lin Tai’s hand and led him toward the door. Holding his hand lightly, her thoughts drifted. She vaguely rembered how, in her previous life, these hands had tightly gripped hers, pulling her back from the gates of death. Even after so many years, she had never forgotten the warmth of his touch.
“????” The police officers following Su Yanfei were utterly confused. For so reason, watching Su Yanfei hold Lin Tai’s hand as they walked side by side gave them the impression of a couple strolling together. Especially when they noticed a faint, almost imperceptible smile on the usually serious and stern Su Yanfei’s lips, they were even more shocked. Was this still the no-nonsense Captain Su they knew?
In the police station, Su Yanfei’s image was always cold and unapproachable, but no one could deny her stunning beauty, which could only be described as breathtaking, like a goddess. Both within the station and outside, she had countless suitors. Yet, she always remained emotionally distant, keeping everyone at arm’s length. But now, she was actively holding Lin Tai’s hand with a faint smile on her face, leaving them completely baffled. Could it be that Captain Su actually liked Lin Tai?
Before coming, they had investigated Lin Tai’s background. Apart from being the wealthy young master of the Lin family, he had no notable qualities. They found it hard to believe that soone as outstanding as Su Yanfei would fall for a good-for-nothing like Lin Tai. At that mont, they could only convince themselves that their eyes must be playing tricks on them—there was no way Su Yanfei could like Lin Tai!
Even after boarding the police car, Su Yanfei didn’t let go of Lin Tai’s hand. She sat with him in the back, while the two officers in the front kept sneaking glances through the rearview mirror. It was as if their Captain Su had forgotten herself, never letting go of Lin Tai’s hand. Lin Tai, for his part, didn’t mind. If Su Yanfei wanted to hold his hand, so be it. He wasn’t familiar with police procedures—maybe this was just her way of upholding the law? If he let go abruptly, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?
As for Su Yanfei, Lin Tai didn’t have a deep impression of her. Their interactions had been minimal. In his previous life, they had t only five or six tis. Three of those were brief encounters during his childhood at the Su family’s banquets. The other two were significant plot points.
The first plot point was this very mont—being escorted to the police station. However, in his previous life, Su Yanfei had handcuffed him and hadn’t held his hand the entire ti. She hadn’t even spoken a single extra word to him.
The second plot point was much more dramatic. Lin Tai, enraged by seeing Ye Bai and Xia Shihan’s sweet relationship, devised another way to get revenge on Ye Bai. He had heard from his shady friends that Princess Elizabeth of the Eagle Kingdom had co to China, and the Elizabeth royal family had deep business ties with Ye Bai. Under soone’s guidance, Lin Tai kidnapped the princess. During the pursuit, Ye Bai’s Death Squad kept ambushing them, and Su Yanfei nearly fell off a cliff, almost dying. It was Lin Tai who saved her at the critical mont.
In a way, Lin Tai was Su Yanfei’s lifesaver. Although Su Yanfei was one of Ye Bai’s harem mbers and part of the enviable “sister flower” duo, there was no real enmity between her and Lin Tai. He didn’t particularly dislike her either.
The police car drove to the station, and it wasn’t until they entered the interrogation room that Su Yanfei reluctantly let go of Lin Tai’s hand. Along the way, their hand-holding had dazzled countless onlookers, leaving them wondering whether Su Yanfei was arresting a criminal or openly flaunting affection. It was just too conspicuous!
In the interrogation room, Lin Tai confessed fully to orchestrating the assault. Because he had caused harm to Ye Bai, he was sentenced to seven days of civil detention, fined 3,000 yuan, and ordered to pay Ye Bai 30,000 yuan in dical expenses. Lin Tai promptly paid the fines and was sent to the detention center.
Looking at the familiar surroundings, which were no different from his previous life, Lin Tai didn’t need the guards to guide him. He naturally walked in, lay down on the single bed, and settled in. Although the earlier plot had been chaotic, it didn’t matter. The detention center was his own storyline, and he was confident that no one could disrupt it this ti. With that thought, Lin Tai planned to spend seven leisurely days in the detention center.
