"Brother Lin, I want to join you!" Wei Shengjin was resolute, his eyes brimming with tears.

He realized that schooling was utterly useless; the weak could only be bullied, and without power, one was subject to humiliation at will.

For a man, the most helpless thing is "at the age of your prime strength, you meet the girl you want to take care of for a lifetime, yet you can only watch her slip away helplessly."

Wei Shengjin didn't want such a tragedy. Without capabilities, he couldn't hold onto Chun, let alone protect her.

"Just focus on your studies; the world is very complicated, not as simple as you think," Lin Hai said indifferently.

"Brother Lin, I've thought it through; schooling is useless."

"Silly boy, education is the most useful thing. A brute force only makes you a thug, but it's education that paves the way to advancement; you don't understand now, but you will in the future."

Lin Hai took a drag on his cigarette. If he could have been educated, why would he have wanted to fight?

In this life, if one could be happy and peaceful, who the hell would want to live a life of turmoil?

"But Brother Lin, ..."

"Enough, just focus on school. If you still want to join me after you graduate from university, I'll agree," Lin Hai said.

Wei Shengjin seemed lost in thought but eventually nodded, trusting that Brother Lin had his best interests at heart.

"If you run into any trouble, just tell them you're the little brother of the Huadu Crown Prince."

"Understood, thank you, Brother Lin."

After leaving the hospital room, Zhuge Jianguo had already pulled some strings; the production crew canceled Yu Dasheng and Mo Shanshan's eligibility overnight and restored Chun's right to participate.

On the other side, Lin Hai arranged for someone to leak the "Video" on the internet.

The next morning, a student who had skipped classes sat in front of the computer, opened up a few forums he frequented, ready to dive into some major discussion and aim for a top-quality post, when he suddenly saw a scandalous video.

After clicking open, the intense content within nearly made him spit blood.

"F*ck! Epic, as good as a blockbuster! Man, I've got to jerk off to this ten times today!"

Then he reposted it and also sent it to his classmates via "Silent Group" on their phones.

In an instant, the video spread rapidly.

Yu Dasheng and Mo Shanshan were quickly doxxed, their information fully exposed.

The scandal of the unspoken rules within the entertainment industry exploded overnight.

Online, the video battle of "National Wife vs. Director Yu" garnered intense attention from netizens.

Yu Dasheng was accused of exploiting numerous third-rank actresses and young models, his character and morals reviled to the extreme, greeted with vehement loathing.

...

Huadu Police Station.

Queen Qi stood at the familiar doors she hadn't crossed in a long while, her mind filled with varied emotions.

It felt like forever since she had been to work.

Although her position had been reinstated a few days ago, she had been traveling to unwind and hadn't returned until now.

"Sister Qi is back."

"Sister Qi, we've missed you so much."

The young officers gathered around excitedly, full of warmth.

A touch of emotion flickered in Queen Qi's eyes; her colleagues were actually very down-to-earth.

She went to Xiao Selang's office, as was the protocol, to report.

"Reporting, Qi Weiwei formally resuming her duties, reporting for duty."

Queen Qi saluted Xiao Selang.

Xiao Selang was reviewing files for several cases, his head down. When he saw it was Queen Qi, he suddenly looked up.

Officer Qi is indeed very beautiful, a worthy mistress to that big shot, Xiao Selang thought to himself.

He immediately put on a smiling face, warmly inviting her, "Officer Qi, please have a seat. Would you like some tea or coffee?"

Queen Qi was a bit astounded; why was Director Xiao, who had always been cold to her, suddenly acting like a completely different person today.

"Officer Qi ah, there was a misunderstanding between us before, and there's a saying that no acquaintance is not made without a fight, I, Old Xiao, would like to apologize to you and hope that you won't take it to heart," Xiao Selang squeezed out a smile that aimed to please.

What's going on? Queen Qi was a bit slow to respond, eyes widening.

"Hehe, Officer Qi, you're still playing dumb with me," Xiao Selang was full of warmth, trying his best to ingratiate himself.

"Xiao... Director Xiao, I don't understand," Queen Qi was full of doubts.

Has Director Xiao taken the wrong medicine?

Xiao Selang hesitated for a moment and after a bit of thought, he asked, "Officer Qi, you know Yama Lord, don't you?"

"I do." Queen Qi became even more perplexed at heart, why on earth was Director Xiao suddenly asking about this?

Could it be that he's planning to take action against Yama?

But Yama doesn't seem to be bad, and he might even be Beast Lin, should I tell him about it?

"Officer Qi, hehe, I just knew you knew Yama," Xiao Selang said with a chuckle.

"Director Xiao, I believe that Yama is not a bad person, and he has immense fighting power. If we rashly move to capture him, it might provoke his anger, and what if he vents it on the citizens of Huadu? Please, consider this carefully," Queen Qi spoke earnestly and urgently.

As a police officer, no matter what others do, one must always consider things from the standpoint of the citizens and social stability.

"Aiyo, Officer Qi, I think so too," Xiao Selang said with a laugh.

Qi Weiwei was truly surprised; previously, every time Director Xiao mentioned Yama, he would gnash his teeth with hatred, wishing to annihilate Yama immediately. How come he's completely changed his tune today?

"Hehe, in fact, to be honest with you, I also know Yama," Xiao Selang winked.

Queen Qi was once again astonished; Director Xiao actually knew Yama too?

"Oh, it's only recently that I've come to know Yama, but I'm not clear about his true identity."

"I think, Yama is actually a noble person, someone who has pulled away from lowly tastes, a pure person."

"…" Queen Qi was at a loss for words again. If Yama really is Lin Hai, is he someone who has pulled away from lowly tastes? His mind is full of sleazy thoughts.

"Hehe, Officer Qi, I mean to say this: Please speak to Yama Lord when you have the chance, I, Xiao Selang, am willing to bend over backward for the people of Huadu, to fully maintain the public order in Huadu, let me know if you need anything."

Queen Qi was surprised yet again.

"Officer Qi, we are on the same team, oh no, we are comrades in arms, I know, you are the Yama Lord's mistress, uh no, his confidante."

"Alright, Officer Qi, you must be busy, little Xiao won't bother you anymore."

Xiao Selang was wearing a fawning smile.

Queen Qi walked out of the office in a daze, her mind short-circuiting a bit.

"Wait a minute! Since when did I become the Yama's mistress!" she suddenly stopped in her tracks, feeling both ashamed and angry.

Queen Qi immediately took out her cell phone and dialed that mysterious number, left to her by Yama.

The call connected quickly.

"Yama, what have you been saying to Xiao Selang? Since when did I become your mistress?" Qi Weiwei bit back angrily.

On the other end of the phone, Lin Hai was squatting in a hospital toilet, utterly confused.

Then, he realized it was a special number.

His voice turned cold: "What's the matter? You don't want to be my mistress?"

"Hmph, who's dying to be your mistress?"

"Officer Qi, is it not good to be my mistress? You don't know how many people long for it."

"I, I, I already have a man I like, his name is Lin Hai, I won't be your mistress! I want to be Lin Hai's one and only."
