Chapter 200 Agreed
Chapter 200 of "Super Soldier in the City" opens revealing the plot: Chapter 200: Chapter 200 Agreed"Iâm asking you, compared to your girlfriend Su Yiyi, am I... Discover what happens!
Chapter 200: Chapter 200 Agreed"Iâm asking you, compared to your girlfriend Su Yiyi, am I not as pretty as her?" Lin Qiong grabbed Li Yifeiâs arm and stared at him as she asked.
Li Yifei swallowed hard, took a look around Lin Qiongâs figure, and thought to himself that this female police officer and Su Yiyi were indeed very comparable in looks.
Lin Qiong then asked, "Then is my figure not as good as hers?"
Li Yifeiâs gaze lingered on Lin Qiongâs chest; Lin Qiong could feel where his eyes were resting and subconsciously shrank back, but then she immediately pushed her chest out again.
Lin Qiongâs chest was actually a size larger than Su Yiyiâs, and her figure was somewhat more voluptuous than Su Yiyiâs. In this regard, it seemed Lin Qiong had a slight edge. Without thinking it through, he said, "Yours is better than hers."
Lin Qiong nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Then whatâs not to be satisfied with if I become your wife?"
Li Yifei shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Marriage is a lifetime commitment; how can it be decided just by looks alone? I admit youâre as beautiful as Yiyi, and even have a better figure. If you put on a uniform, the allure of the uniform would be irresistible to any man. But I promised Yiyi, to make her my girlfriend, then I must treat her well. I canât just abandon her because you have a better figure and marry you instead."
By now, Lin Qiongâs thought process seemed to be stuck in a dead end. She snorted and said, "Donât you understand that marriage is the grave of love? No matter how deeply in love you are, once you get married, the petty things in life will grind it down. In the end, whether you can stay together for a lifetime doesnât depend on love but on whether you can adapt to each otherâs lives."
"Even if itâs about adapting to life, Yiyi is gentle and virtuous, definitely an excellent partner for daily life. Living a lifetime with her, Iâd be sure to live comfortably. Why wouldnât I want to stay with her?"
"Nowadays, what does it mean to be gentle and virtuous? Whether itâs a man or a woman, who doesnât show their best side during dating? Who would continuously reveal their flaws? Plus, people in love naturally overlook each otherâs faults and amplify each otherâs good points. But after you get married, itâs the flaws that get amplified and the good points that tend to be overlooked."
"Still, that doesnât prove I should leave Yiyi and marry you, does it?" SŃará´h the NovŃlĆire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Iâve made myself clear. If she can understand, then you just continue being with her. If she canât, Iâll spend a lifetime with you. Although we havenât dated, throughout the time Iâve interacted with you, Iâve been able to make a more accurate judgment about you. So, Iâm also aware of your flaws, and wonât blindly magnify them. With that, the two of us living a lifetime together wouldnât be too difficult."
"Wait a minute, you understand me, but I still havenât come to understand you. I donât know if I can adapt to you in the future. I canât bet the rest of my life on you."
"What do you mean âbet on meâ? Havenât you seen that in the past, when men and women got married, there wasnât any dating process? It was just the parentsâ arrangement, and once both families agreed, the two people would be together, and they often lived well together. In contrast, itâs because of love marriages now that the divorce rate is so high."
Li Yifei suddenly felt a wave of frustration; Lin Qiong was spouting all sorts of muddled theories.
At that moment, Lin Qiong patted Li Yifeiâs shoulder and said, "I know you have lots of concerns, and I promise you here and now that Iâll treat you well and certainly be a good wife and mother. I, Lin Qiong, have always kept my word. Isnât that enough?"
Li Yifei stared at Lin Qiong, who was also looking directly at him, unblinking, to prove her determination.
They looked at each other like this for a full minute until Li Yifei suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Officer Lin, youâre willing to lay down your whole life for one case, isnât that a bit too much of a loss?"
Lin Qiongâs mouth twitched for a moment, but she immediately said with conviction, "If this case is cracked, it will save many people. Isnât it worth sacrificing myself for the sake of so many?"
"Such a grand spirit," Li Yifei said with a mix of laughter and tears. "Itâs just a smuggling case, right? It doesnât save that many people. At most, it would maintain economic stability and prevent the loss of tax revenue."
"You just donât understand. Smuggling isnât such a simple matter; it involves many aspects, and the economic impact is substantial. Think about it, smuggled goods are very cheap, and legitimate businesses will indeed be affected, possibly even unable to continue. If they incur too much loss, they might resort to actions that harm society. Once that happens, who knows how many people will be affected? Itâs all a butterfly effect. Law laxity in one area can lead to countless consequences."
Li Yifei listened, dumbfounded, as Lin Qiong brought up the butterfly effect. However, he had to admit, Lin Qiong did have a point. The ancients had said that you should not commit small evils, nor should you neglect small kindnesses. The apparent meaning is that small evils can accumulate and make it easy to commit greater evils, while frequently doing small kindnesses can accumulate infinite merit.
But on another level, it is also an interpretation of the butterfly effect. A small evil act can affect someoneâs entire life in many ways, like a thief who steals just a few thousand dollars. It might not seem like a big evil, but if that money was someoneâs lifesaving fund, then that thief is almost equivalent to a murderer.
Seeing Li Yifei in a thoughtful mood, Lin Qiong pressed on, "So I must keep investigating this case. I know how dangerous it could be; Iâm even willing to risk my life for it, so why would I fear spending a lifetime with you?"
Li Yifei cracked a smile and said, "Thatâs quite a high price to pay."
Sensing an opportunity, Lin Qiong smiled slightly and said, "Not really. Actually, I think youâre not a bad person. Otherwise, I wouldnât have chosen you and no one else."
"Sweat, you havenât really fallen for me and are using this opportunity to get with me, have you?"
"In your dreams!" Lin Qiong immediately glared and snapped back. But then, feeling that tone might upset Li Yifei, she quickly rolled her eyes and said, "I meant to say that I think marrying you probably wouldnât present much of a problem, but I didnât say Iâve fallen for you."
Li Yifei was speechless, finding Lin Qiongâs thinking extremely bizarre at this moment, yet he couldnât help but admire her dedication to justice. Regardless, such a female police officer was absolutely worthy of respect.
Thinking of the understanding Su Yiyi, Li Yifei wasnât actually worried. As long as he explained the situation to her, she would surely agree. He therefore said to Lin Qiong with a wry smile, "Alright, youâve really beaten me. For the sake of your justice, Iâll help you this one time, but weâve agreed that youâll have to explain everything to Yiyi afterward."
"No problem! But we canât talk about it now, or we might let something slip and fail before we even start."
"Okay, then we wonât talk about it now."
Lin Qiong said excitedly, "Great, then weâll meet my parents today, and register our marriage on Monday."
"What? That soon?" Li Yifei exclaimed in surprise again.
"The sooner we crack this case, the better, right? We also need to get the money as soon as possible."
"But we need to prepare a bit, right? Otherwise, meeting your parents would be a dead giveaway."
"Oh, thatâs true. You have a girlfriend, so you must have met her parents before, right? You must have some experience, think about what we should do."
Li Yifei broke out in a huge sweat. Lin Qiong had actually pushed this task onto him, but he did have experience with such things, having easily handled meeting Xu Yingyingâs parents before.
Since he had agreed, Li Yifei got into character and started asking about Lin Qiongâs parentsâ preferences and such. Of course, the most important thing was to ask about Lin Qiongâs own habits and interests. After all, it wouldnât do to be about to marry and still not have a clear idea of what kind of person Lin Qiong was.
Lin Qiong answered most of Li Yifeiâs questions, but when he asked her if she had any bad habits, her face turned red and she awkwardly asked, "Do I need to say this kind of thing?"
Seeing Lin Qiongâs expression, Li Yifeiâs interest was piqued. He said with a smile, "Of course you have to say it. Weâre about to get married, so I should definitely know about this kind of thing, right?"
"I... I..." Lin Qiong stuttered, her face so red she couldnât get the words out.
"Come on, you need to get into character now, treat me like your husband, as if weâve already been to bed together."
"As if Iâd go to bed with you!" Lin Qiongâs eyes rounded in indignation.
"Get married without going to bed?" Li Yifei retorted sarcastically.
"Well... thatâs true. My bad habit is that I donât like wearing clothes when I sleep at night." After saying this, Lin Qiongâs face was beet red, and she turned away, no longer daring to look at Li Yifei.
"Ah ha..." Li Yifei was genuinely surprised; he had not expected Lin Qiong, a female police officer, to also have a preference for sleeping in the nude, similar to the flight attendant Meng Xiaofei.
"Donât laugh!" Lin Qiong turned back to glare fiercely at Li Yifei.
"Iâm not laughing. Sleeping naked isnât a bad habit. During the day, people are constrained in all sorts of ways. When itâs time to sleep, itâs time to completely relax. Of course, you should do whatever feels comfortable. Hehe, so now I have to ask, when we go to meet your parents, are we going to sleep together?"
Lin Qiong was about to get angry, but then realized that Li Yifei had raised a valid point, a question they couldnât avoid. Clenching her teeth, she said, "Of course weâll sleep together, weâre about to be married, how can we not?"
"Then you..." Li Yifeiâs gaze roamed suggestively over Lin Qiongâs body.
"Keep dreaming! I wonât sleep naked, and donât you think about taking any advantage of me."
Li Yifei immediately pursed his lips and said, "No advantages allowed? That talk about spending our lives together was nonsense then."
Lin Qiong was left speechless, finally managing through gritted teeth, "When I said spending a lifetime with you, that was if your girlfriend couldnât accept you. If your girlfriend accepts you, then why would I spend a lifetime with you?"
Li Yifei dropped his joking demeanor and said seriously, "Iâm not joking around with you. This is serious. Since weâre getting married, we canât avoid some intimate actions. If you get angry then..."
Lin Qiong froze for a moment, then bit her lip hard and said, "Fine, as long as we donât do that thing, anything else is no problem."
