My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Luo Xiaolang just stared at Yin Qin.

She looked at Yin Qin who had suddenly appeared at her front door, urging her very seriously, very earnestly and very sincerely to marry him ahead of schedule.

She had thought they might not even have a wedding.

She didn’t speak, as she didn’t know how to respond.

Yin Qin came closer, “I hope we can have the wedding sooner. I want everyone to know that we’re married.”

Luo Xiaolang wondered if Yin Qin had been shocked again.

Just a moment ago, wasn’t he still saying he couldn’t abandon Ji Baixing? That he never could in his whole life.

So why does he now want to marry her right away?

She didn’t understand.

Her master said that people outside were complicated.

She felt that they are even more complicated than what her master described.

She didn’t know how to answer him.

“I’ll choose a time. You just need to prepare yourself and leave the rest to me,” Yin Qin said urgently.

He was very anxious.

What was he anxious about?

Did he fear not having a wedding?

But why would he be afraid?

Shouldn’t she be the one to worry?

“What’s wrong with you?” Luo Xiaolang couldn’t help asking him.

Suddenly, what’s wrong?

“I just really want to get married now, really want to have the wedding now.”

“But Ji Baixing…”

“There will be no Ji Baixing from now on,” Yin Qin said bluntly “In the future, there will just be me, you, and the little tiger ”

Luo Xiaolang still didn’t understand.

She somewhat doubted, was Yin Qin possessed?

“I will announce our wedding date soon, next week. I’ve decided, next Sunday. I don’t care whether the day is auspicious or not, we will just have our wedding!”

Luo Xiaolang stared at him blankly.

Was he really in such a hurry?

She felt that Yin Qin’s change was very drastic!

Suddenly, Yin Qin cupped Luo Xiaolang’s face and pecked her on the lips.

Luo Xiaolang’s face flushed slightly.

Yin Qin said, “Rest well these days, although I don’t expect you to look much prettier, but being a little better is still better.”

Luo Xiaolang nodded silently, nodding again and again.

Anyway.

Whatever Yin Qin said, it would be.

She was used to obedience.

Yin Qin said, “I’ll go and tell my mother so she doesn’t do anything reckless today.”

With that, he hastily left the room.

Luo Xiaolang stared at the direction where Yin Qin had disappeared.

In the end.

Should she look forward to it?

This sudden… wedding.

Yin Qin knocked on his mother’s door.

Yin Bin opened the door.

At that moment he almost hit his son, the only reason he didn’t was because he knew he couldn’t win.

He really didn’t know when his son gained this ability to take down four bodyguards!

Yin Bin strenuously maintained his dignity, saying coldly, “You have the nerve to show up!”

“Where’s mom?”

“She doesn’t want to see you.”

“Then could you tell her that I’ve decided to move the wedding ahead of schedule, it will be next Sunday. It might be a bit rushed, please ask her to help me with preparations,” Yin Qin said, his voice loud.

It was obvious that he intentionally said it aloud for people inside the room to hear.

Upon hearing that Yin Qin was suddenly getting married, Qin Keqin came rushing out.

Yin Bin wished she could slow down, isn’t she an elderly pregnant woman?

Could she be a little more mindful of her condition?

“Who are you marrying?” Qin Keqin asked harshly.

“Of course, it’s Luo Xiaolang. Who else did you think?”

“Are you sick or something!” Qin Keqin couldn’t help cursing.

“Mom, could you please see your son as a normal person.”

“I really fear you’re mentally challenged!”

“Mom!”

“Are you sure you want to get married?” Qin Keqin asked, disbelieving. “And you’re getting married next Sunday?”

“Yes, I’m sure. Please arrange it for me. I’ll announce the engagement in a while.”

“I’m telling you, I can tolerate you not marrying now, but once you are married, if you dare to do anything to Luo Xiaolang, I will really kill you. I’m not joking!” Qin Keqin said seriously.

“I know, I know what I’m doing.” Yin Qin nodded.

“Yin Qin, marriage is not child’s play. I don’t want you to follow in your father’s and my footsteps. Do you really think I’ve had a good life the last few decades?”

“I know, I’m not blind.” He knew that his mother had actually been quite repressed, but she hid it well.

“Before marriage, I can tolerate your feelings for Xiaolang being inadequate. No matter what, Xiaolang being pregnant with your child is not your fault. The reason I didn’t stop you today is because you weren’t wrong in the matter of your relationship with Xiaolang. So, I tolerated your care for Ji Baixing, I tolerated your inability to let go of Ji Baixing and even your love for her. But marriage is your own choice. Before this, everything was forced on you, but everything later on would be by your own will. Once you make a decision, you have to take responsibility for it!”

“Relax, I know what I’m doing.” Yin Qin asserted.

He was very clear that this was his own choice.

He chose Luo Xiaolang, chose to be responsible for her, chose to be responsible for the little tiger. He wouldn’t have another love interest.

He had decided to spend the rest of his life with Luo Xiaolang.

Just because it’s hard to fall in love doesn’t mean you can’t.

After spending so much time together, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with life with Luo Xiaolang. On the contrary, he sometimes felt strangely warm.

He felt that this was enough.

As for Ji Baixing…

Ji Baixing is the past.

A beautiful past.

Keep it for occasional reminiscing, that’s all.

“In that case, leave the wedding arrangements to me,” Qin Keqin said.

“Thank you.” Yin Qin smiled, “Ah, I’m really tired. I’m going to bed.”

Yin Qin turned around and walked away.

Looking at Yin Qin’s back, Qin Keqin muttered to herself, “Yin Qin suddenly wants to marry Luo Xiaolang, even if I can see his sincerity, it still makes me feel uneasy.”

“You should stop thinking about it. Since Yin Qin said he’ll get married immediately, it must be to cut off all his feelings for Ji Baixing. Trust your son, he knows what he’s choosing.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to trust him, but this guy…” Qin Keqin paused, “To truly let go of a deeply loved one from the bottom of one’s heart, it shouldn’t be as easy as he makes it seem. Shouldn’t it be painful?”

“It is painful.” Yin Bin chimed in.

Qin Keqin turned to look at him.

Yin Bin began to doubt whether he had said something wrong.

Qin Keqin enunciated every word, “You’ve experienced it, haven’t you?”

Yin Bin truly felt like crying but had no tears.

How could every matter somehow involve him?

He leaned in close to Qin Keqin, a devilish smile on his face, “Miss Qin, are you losing your temper on purpose because you want me to kiss you?”

Qin Keqin’s foot landed hard on Yin Bin’s leg.

Yin Bin grimaced in pain.

“Damn, idiot!”

Qin Keqin advanced towards her room.

Yin Bin clutched his leg.

That being said, this move was quite effective.

If Qin Keqin mentioned something he didn’t want to hear in the future, he would simply… force her into submission!

The news of Yin Qin’s upcoming marriage to Luo Xiaolang instantly spread to every nook and cranny of Jin City.

A moment ago, rumors were flying about the lingering love between Yin Qin and Ji Baixin, only for everyone to be utterly dumfounded by the sudden announcement.

Yin Qin personally announced the wedding date on her Weibo account.

Then, she unveiled to the media that she and Luo Xiaolang were about to host their wedding.

Immediately.

The news about “Yin Qin and Luo Xiaolang’s wedding” hit the headlines.

Ji Baixin saw it.

She had just finished preparing the outfit for today’s “Heaven’s Hall” competition, when she saw the headline about Yin Qin’s marriage announcement.

She remained silent for a long time.

Just silent for a very long time.

“Boss,” her assistant called her from the side.

Ji Baixin snapped back to reality.

“Boss, we’re running out of time,” the assistant reminded her.

Indeed, her sudden emotional shift was noteworthy. It was like something monumental had happened, like the sky was falling.

The assistant didn’t dare to probe further.

Ji Baixin said, forcing down her emotions, “Let’s go.”

She led her assistant to the set.

She oversaw her staff as they dressed each contestant in the prepared outfits.

The costumes were truly stunning.

All performance costumes are somewhat exaggerated. Each one featured a subtle shimmer in the light, lifting the appeal of the stage. All the contestants loved them.

The assistant couldn’t help but comment, “Boss, this design is truly outstanding.”

Ji Baixing responded, albeit unenthusiastically.

The assistant refrained from disturbing her further.

Once Ji Baixing finished her work, she turned around to find Yin Qin.

Yin Qin had also come backstage to check on the preparations.

The two of them met again.

Although they had only been apart for a day, it felt like an eternity had passed.

Ji Baixin said, “You’re here.”

“I came to check the preparations.”

“I just helped them change into the costumes. Two groups of contestants have just gone for rehearsal, the stage effects are great, everyone says they look good.”

“They are indeed beautiful, I saw them outside,” Yin Qin replied.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became awkward and tense between them.

Ji Baixin gave a small smile, “I saw the news.”

“Huh?”

“The news about the wedding.”

Yin Qin nodded, “Next Sunday. If you’re free, come and join.”

“Sure, I’ll be there,” Ji Baixin said.

“I’ll look around over there.”

“Yin Qin,” Ji Baixin called him back before he could leave.

Yin Qin turned back to look at her.

“Yin Qin, if you don’t mind, I want to personally design your wedding suit,” Ji Baixin took the initiative to say.

She wanted him to wear her design.

Even if she wasn’t the bride.

“No need, my mother has already ordered someone to custom make it. She has arranged everything for both Xiaolang’s and mine. If I rejected her offer, she would kill me! You know my mother is a high-risk pregnant woman, I don’t dare to provoke her,” Yin Qin said humorously, refusing the offer.

“Is that so?” Ji Baixin seemed a bit disappointed.

“You shouldn’t work too hard. You have to design the costumes for ‘Heaven’s Hall’ and spend time designing my wedding suit? Isn’t that going to tire you out? It’s just a suit, merely a formality,” Yin Qin reasoned.

“Is the wedding merely a formality to you?” Ji Baixin asked.

Yin Qin pressed his lips together, “The wedding is just a formality, but marriage is for life.”

Ji Baixin gave a wan smile, hiding her disappointment.

A marriage is for life.

Then he and Luo Xiaolang are going to be together for life, right?

She said, “Then, congratulations in advance.”

“Thank you,” Yin Qin said, intending to leave before he paused mid-step.

Ji Baixin watched Yin Qin, feeling a slight flutter in her heart.

“By the way,” Yin Qin began, “I forgot to tell you, Li Wenjun is having a terrible time. He upset someone and got his cheques stolen, now he’s wanted by the court. Various manufacturers are demanding payment from him, he’s like a rat crossing the street, living in fear every day in Jin City. He’s in debt and can’t leave Jin City, leading a miserable life.”

The flutter in Ji Baixing’s heart gradually cooled.

She couldn’t care less about Li Wenjun now.

She was only interested in Yin Qin.

Yin Qin said, “He asked me for money and of course, I didn’t give it to him. But it shows that he doesn’t have your video anymore, otherwise he would have threatened me again. You can put your mind at ease now.”

Ji Baixin gave a bleak smile.

“Alright, I’ll go over there and check,” Yin Qin said, then left.

He left without any hesitation, leaving her behind.

Yin Qin could feel Ji Baixin’s gaze on him all the while.

He relaxed into a smile.

This was the start of their relationship as friends, a gap they could never cross.

At 8 o’clock in the evening.

The “Heaven’s Hall” program started on time.

All the actors were ready.

The pre-show sitcom started, all the contestants made their appearance. Then, at the peak of the performance, the stage suddenly plunged into darkness.

All the lights on the stage went off.

Instantly, it was all chaos.

Then suddenly, the lights came back on.

The moment they did, the awkward poses of the contestants on stage were exposed, making the entire performance a complete mess.
