East District Police Station.

Qin Ying sat absently in her office, bored, unable to focus on computer games because she was missing someone.

"Where on earth has Ye Chen gone? It's been three days. Why hasn't he shown up yet?"

Ye Chen hadn't appeared for three days, which was driving Qin Ying crazy with worry.

Every day after work, Qin Ying would rush outside the police station, hoping to catch a glimpse of Ye Chen, longing for the man to come looking for her.

But Ye Chen had left and not returned, leaving Qin Ying anxious and distraught every day.

The prolonged absence of Ye Chen was beginning to scare Qin Ying. Their acquaintance was brief; their feelings not deeply rooted. She feared terribly that Ye Chen may have cold-heartedly abandoned her and would never come back.

"Ye Chen, you're not answering your phone, you're not showing up, where on earth are you?"

Qin Ying doodled with a pen on her book, her mind filled with thoughts of Ye Chen.

"Tap tap."

Footsteps and a mix of other noises sounded from outside; Qin Ying knew it was time to finish work again.

Qin Ying glanced down at her watch; sure enough, it was time to clock out.

"Sigh!" Qin Ying let out a sigh, slowly got up, and prepared to go home.

If it had been yesterday or the day before, Qin Ying would have certainly rushed to change clothes, grab her bag, and walk out to see if Ye Chen was there outside the station.

But the consecutive days of disappointment had made any expectations for Ye Chen's appearance a mere luxury hope.

Qin Ying vaguely guessed that Ye Chen might have given up on her. Given the short time of their acquaintance and their fleeting fondness for each other, the likelihood of Ye Chen abandoning her was high.

Considering this possibility, Qin Ying no longer panicked.

Whether Ye Chen came or not came, it wasn't worth hurrying for; she didn't need to rush out to see if he was waiting outside.

Qin Ying changed into her casual clothes, slung her bag over her shoulder, and prepared to calm her emotions, maybe forgetting was the best choice after all.

"Ye Chen, are you really not going to appear anymore?"

Ye Chen's prolonged absence filled Qin Ying's heart with disappointment, even a sense of despair, yet she still hoped against hope.

Qin Ying walked out of the police station, looked around, but still did not see Ye Chen, the figure she hoped for.

"Maybe he truly has given up."

As Qin Ying felt the sting of sorrow, she also reminded herself that perhaps it was indeed time to forget. Sometimes, the real beauty wasn't in holding on, but in letting go.

"Qin Ying, you're being so damn melodramatic. It's just a man. With your beauty, successful career, and good family background, you can have any man you want. Obsessing over somebody day and night, don't you get tired of the anxiety?"

After wallowing in her distress for a while, Qin Ying shook her head, trying to rid herself of the negative thoughts. She silently cursed her own lack of resolve, reduced to despondency over a man.

Finally, Qin Ying stopped looking around and headed towards the parking spot, planning to drive around to clear her mind, knowing that man would not appear.

"Beep!"

Just then, a Porsche drove up slowly, trailing behind Qin Ying, the driver honking at her.

"Huh?" Qin Ying was already in a bad mood, and being approached this way only added to her irritation, a scowl forming on her face.

Qin Ying turned around to see who was bothering her at such a moment. If it was some spoiled rich brat, she was ready to beat the tar out of them and vent her frustration!

However, the car's windows were tinted with a reflective film, and Qin Ying couldn't see anyone inside the vehicle.

Qin Ying stood still, and the Porsche approached slowly. It was obvious the person inside had intentions toward her.

"I wonder who the blind fool is that dares to mess with this goddess; they must have the guts of a bear and the courage of a leopard!" Qin Ying's face was icy as she waited for the car owner to come out, ready to give him a beating.

"Hey beauty, free tonight?" The Porsche pulled up beside Qin Ying, the window slowly rolled down, and a handsome man behind the wheel looked at Qin Ying with a brilliant smile.

"You!" Qin Ying hesitated for a moment, and then turned all cutesy.

The man was wearing sunglasses, and at a glance, Qin Ying felt he was familiar, but she recognized him instantly; she knew who he was.

"What's the matter, got emotional seeing a handsome guy, and feel like crying?" The man took off his sunglasses and chuckled at Qin Ying.

Ye Chen!

Seeing this familiar face, Qin Ying was happier than stumbling upon a fifty-cent coin. Her nose tingled, and she nearly burst into tears.

Qin Ying had been in despair, thinking Ye Chen would never show up, but just as things seemed hopeless, there was a light at the end of the tunnel; this bad boy had appeared again.

"Where have you been all these days!" Qin Ying had wanted to cry her heart out to express her happiness. But then she remembered who she was; she was the chief of the East District Police Station, a martial arts strong woman; how could she cry so easily? That would be so shameful!

Furthermore, crying would mess up her makeup, and what if it scared Ye Chen away?

"I went off to make money!" Ye Chen said with a laugh. "I'm naturally lucky; after getting a goddess for a wife, I casually bought a lottery ticket and happened to win fifty million. Then I bought a mansion, drove luxury cars, and climbed to the peak of life... Well, that's about it!"

"Pfft!"

Listening to Ye Chen's big bluff, Qin Ying was amused instantly. This guy was naturally funny with a smart mouth.

"Missed me?" Ye Chen blinked gently as if he was flirting with a goddess.

"I did!" Qin Ying nodded, obviously electrified.

"Boom!"

The cool Porsche roared and turned into a mesmerizing streak of light racing down the broad road, drawing the stares of passersby.

"Qin Ying, don't even think about monopolizing Ye Chen; he belongs to me alone!" Qin Lan emerged from the shadows, her face expressionless and cold. She had been lurking for a while and had witnessed the affection between Ye Chen and Qin Ying.

Ye Chen had disappeared for three days and had finally reappeared, which excited Qin Lan.

While Ye Chen and Qin Ying were hitting it off, Qin Lan was not discouraged because they had laid their cards on the table!

Qin Lan and Qin Ying had agreed: both were free to pursue Ye Chen, and whoever succeeded would be simply more capable!

And the one who failed would step aside willingly!

Qin Lan had already decided to wait for the right moment to use her beauty trap on Ye Chen... with Ye Chen's resistance to goddesses, her victory was almost a foregone conclusion.

Qin Ying and Ye Chen had left earlier, and by the time Qin Lan got home, Qin Ying was already packed and ready to go out with Ye Chen.

"Sis, where are you guys going to hang out, I want to come too!" Qin Lan saw them leaving and said nonchalantly.

"I'm dating your sister; what's a kid like you meddling in our business for?" Ye Chen said coolly.

"Take a hike; you're not even qualified to talk to me!" Qin Lan replied even more coldly.

"..."

"Lan Lan, I'm on a date with Ye Chen. Why would you tag along?" Qin Ying frowned slightly and said.

They were twin sisters and had always had a good relationship.

But since they both liked the same man, they were now rivals in love, so Qin Ying was wary of her sister, fearing she might seize an opportunity.

"Sis, you remember our agreement, right?" Qin Lan asked.
