Although Qin Song's acting skills were poor, her loud shouting was undeniable.

Her screams startled Ms. Zhang. Ms. Zhang turned deathly pale, took several steps back in panic, and her voice trembled.

"You're lying! I clearly didn't touch you! I didn't harm your child! You're lying!"

Qin Song clutched his stomach, wincing in pain: "It's you! It's definitely you! Discipline Instructor, hurry, catch her, don't let her get away!"

Ji Mingxuan stood up from the ground: "No problem!"

Ms. Zhang looked at him with a terrified expression: "What...what do you want to do?"

Ji Mingxuan: "Ms. Zhang, you knew my client was pregnant and still made advances on her. Now look what's happened, she keeps complaining of stomach pain, and it seems there's something wrong with the fetus. As the perpetrator, you must come to the police station with me today! I want to file a complaint against you for intentional assault!"

"Get away! I didn't mean to hurt you!" Ms. Zhang was intimidated. Seeing that Qin Song was really in a lot of pain, she quickly decided to turn around and run away.

"Hey—" Ji Mingxuan took a few steps and shouted at her back, "Don't run away! The police are coming soon!"

"..."

Ms. Zhang ran very fast, and in the blink of an eye she had darted far away.

"Sisi, this neighborhood is a bit old. Are you sure you want to open your studio here?"

"Actually, I'm not really sure. I just thought this neighborhood was quiet and suitable for creative work, so I wanted to come and take a look..."

"Alright, then I'll keep you company for a while—"

"Ouch!"

Ms. Zhang was running too fast and didn't notice anyone beside her. She bumped headfirst into Lu Yibai.

Lu Yibai staggered from the impact, but instinctively turned to shield Qin Sisi. After confirming that Qin Sisi was not injured, he turned back and glared at Ms. Zhang with a fierce look in his eyes.

Ms. Zhang covered her forehead and looked up at him. She was about to scold him for not watching where he was going when she was startled by his gaze and gasped.

"...I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" She took two steps back, bowed, and apologized to Lu Yibai in a flustered manner. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I didn't mean to, I'm so sorry!"

Lu Yibai glanced at her coldly and said in a deep voice, "It's nothing, you can leave."

"Hey..." Ms. Zhang didn't dare disobey, so she shrank back and hurriedly ran away.

……

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Ji Mingxuan helped Qin Song up, patted the dust off her clothes, and asked somewhat nervously.

Qin Song waved his hand: "I'm fine, I was just faking it to scare her."

"Hey..." Ji Mingxuan put his hands on his hips, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked in the direction Ms. Zhang left with a puzzled expression.

"This woman is really strange. She keeps demanding compensation from you, but she won't cooperate at all. If we ask her to sue us in court, she thinks it's a waste of time. If we ask her to listen to a lawyer, she's worried that we're conspiring to cheat her."

"Although we have known each other for a long time, as a lawyer, I still have the most basic professional ethics."

“Exactly,” Qin Song agreed. “Besides, strictly speaking, you know my husband, not me. How could I possibly be on the same side as you?”

Ji Mingxuan: "That's right..."

Qin Song stroked her pregnant belly and carefully recalled Ms. Zhang's behavior. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

"Is this Ms. Zhang really after the money?"

"Huh?" Ji Mingxuan didn't understand what she meant. "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"

Qin Song tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, her bright eyes narrowing slightly: "It's been a full four days since the incident. For four days, Ms. Zhang has done nothing but stand at our door every day, making a scene and causing trouble. She says she wants compensation, but she hasn't cooperated at all."

"Her husband fell and broke his arm and his front tooth. With such serious injuries, why didn't she take the time to go to the hospital to take care of him? Is she really worried about her husband?"

"Moreover, most people who want compensation will bring hospital examination reports or police reports. But she just brought a random banner."

"I don't think she's here to ask for money; she seems like she's just trying to cause trouble."

"Making trouble?" Ji Mingxuan let his imagination run wild on this clue, guessing, "Could she be an undercover agent sent by another real estate agency? Auntie's house is such a good quality, there must be a lot of agents envious. A house worth over three million, once it's sold, they can get a commission of sixty or seventy thousand, who wouldn't want it?"

"Hmm..." Qin Song nodded, finding it quite reasonable. "That's possible..."

"Qin Song?"

A sweet, cloying female voice suddenly interrupted Qin Song's thoughts. Qin Song turned his head in the direction of the voice and unfortunately saw the person he least wanted to see.

And there are two of them.

"It really is you!" Qin Sisi linked arms with Lu Yibai, a sweet smile of surprise on her exquisitely made-up face.

"Why are you here?"

"..." Qin Song didn't really want to talk to her, so he said perfunctorily, "I was just passing by."

"Just passing by?" Qin Sisi blinked innocently, looked up at Lu Yibai, and said, "But just now, we think we saw you arguing with someone. You can get into a conflict just by passing by?"

Qin Song: "..."

These words were indeed somewhat sarcastic. Qin Song was already harboring anger, and hearing Qin Sisi's words made her emotions explode.

She turned to face Qin Sisi, her eyes crinkling into a smile that was both adorable and sly: "Yeah, I can get into conflicts with people just by passing by... But there's nothing I can do. There are just too many abnormal people in this world. Whenever I'm just walking along, there are always some blind fools who want to disgust me, like right now."

"...Qin Song, what do you mean?" Qin Sisi wasn't stupid; she could tell immediately who Qin Song was implying.

Her carefully drawn, natural eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes immediately looked somewhat aggrieved: "I... I was just curious, that's why I asked you that. If you're unhappy, you can say so. Why are you implying that? I didn't do anything to you..."

As she spoke, she reached out and tugged at Lu Yibai's suit jacket, looking incredibly endearing.

Lu Yibai couldn't stand it any longer and immediately gave Qin Song a cold shout with a dark face.

"Qin Song, what's gotten into you again? You've fallen so low, don't you know how to restrain yourself?"

"..." Qin Song was speechless.

Looking at Qin Sisi's disgusting behavior, she quickly decided to be even more disgusting than her.

"What are you talking about?" She frowned, pouted, and looked even more aggrieved than Qin Sisi. "I was implying something about the person I just argued with, not you guys. Why are you being so hostile towards me?"

"Right, discipline officer?"
