143: Chapter 143 Excessive Self-Defense? Did I go too far?

The sound of someone falling to the ground echoed from behind him.

Qin Xun turned around and saw a woman dressed in a black casual suit curled up on the floor like a shrimp, her body twitching slightly.

"It hurts... ah, it hurts so much!"

She groaned continuously in pain.

Qin Xun felt a bit awkward and scratched his head.

"Sorry about that. I thought you were a man, so I didn't hold back that kick."

"I don't usually hit women."

The woman's face was contorted in agony. Although she wasn't a man, she had still taken a critical hit and didn't have the strength to talk to Qin Xun.

Mi Xier, who was huddled in the corner by the window, breathed a huge sigh of relief when she heard Qin Xun say he didn't hit women.

However, she then watched him bend down, pick up the stun baton by his feet, and jab it into her assistant's waist.

"Zzzzzzt!"

The assistant convulsed on the floor, screaming, "Ahhhhh!"

Mi Xier's face turned deathly pale with fright.

This... this was even worse than being beaten!

Qin Xun straightened up and paced around the room, his sharp eyes scanning the surroundings.

He specifically checked the bathroom and even under the bed.

Seeing there were no other outsiders, he walked to the door and double-locked it.

Mi Xier was dumbfounded.

"You... what are you trying to do?"

Qin Xun had a smile on his face, holding the stun baton.

"I should be asking you that. Why did you set a trap to frame me?"

Mi Xier looked terrified.

"I didn't want to frame you!"

Qin Xun said coldly.

"Then why are you running a honey trap on me?"

"You even had someone hiding in the bathroom with a stun baton. What exactly are you plotting?"

Mi Xier glanced at the stun baton and trembled with fear, explaining hurriedly.

"I just wanted you to misunderstand that something happened between us, so you'd be obsessed with me and lose sleep and appetite over me."

"Then I could get you to write songs for me and do my marketing."

"To build me up just like you did for Song Ying."

She stared at Qin Xun with wide eyes, not even blinking, trying to let him see as much sincerity in her eyes as possible.

Qin Xun stopped in his tracks, frowning slightly as he thought for a moment.

"Pah!"

He spat.

"You damn woman!"

"Fishing with a straight hook and not even putting out any bait?"

"You want me to be your simp without giving anything up?"

Mi Xier immediately understood that the 'bait' he referred to meant actually having a physical relationship, and her face became even paler.

Seeing Qin Xun shirtless, wearing only a pair of trousers, slowly walking toward her.

She hugged her knees and shrank further into the corner.

"Qin Xun!"

"Calm down!"

"Violating a woman's will is against the law!"

Qin Xun sneered.

"And stripping me naked and throwing me on a bed isn't against the law?"

Mi Xier's logic took a strange turn as she pointed at the assistant lying on the floor.

"Then you also committed intentional injury, which makes it even worse!"

"Don't go further down the path of crime!"

Qin Xun said coldly.

"That was legitimate self-defense."

Mi Xier immediately replied.

"It was excessive defense!"

Qin Xun was stunned.

He really couldn't understand how Mi Xier, with death staring her in the face, could still bicker over legalities with a 'Vicious bandit' like him.

He turned around, walked to the assistant, crouched down, and jabbed the stun baton into her waist again.

"Zzzzzzt!"

A burst of sparks flew!

The assistant twitched in pain, screaming loudly.

"Ahhh!"

"It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!"

Qin Xun stopped, patted her shoulder, and asked softly.

"Was my defense excessive?"

The assistant lay on the floor curled in a ball, drenched in sweat, her voice full of grievance.

"Not excessive!"

"Not excessive at all!"

"It was just right!"

"The level of force was handled perfectly!"

Two lines of humiliated tears flowed down her face; she felt she was getting a raw deal.

She had thought Mi Xier was some big influencer and must be very rich, but even the business van was rented.

Her salary wasn't high, and she hadn't expected to have to do kidnappings, only to end up being beaten in the end.

Mi Xier was dumbfounded!

She finally realized deeply that she had provoked a terrifying person.

Seeing Qin Xun getting closer and closer.

She quickly jumped down from the bay window, her knees buckling as she knelt before Qin Xun.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Qin Xun was startled and stopped in his tracks.

Mi Xier looked up, her eyes filled with tears as she pleaded.

"Mr. Qin, just like you, I'm still a... virgin."

"As long as you don't ruin me."

"I'll do anything you want!"

She pressed her palms together, bowing to Qin Xun as if praying to a Buddha.

"Huh?"

Qin Xun felt like he had heard the joke of the century. He looked at Mi Xier with an expression that said 'are you out of your mind?'

"You're someone whose singing is basically thirst-trapping."

"Hearing the sound of your singing makes me feel like I've walked into a brothel, and you're telling me you're as pure as I am?"

Mi Xier's face turned bright red.

"No one is born a Thirst-trapper!"

"And I really only sell my art, not my body."

Saying that, she tilted her head back and pulled open the neckline of her nightgown with her hand.

Inside, she was wearing a bra, with a tube top over it.

Next, she lifted her skirt.

Revealing a pair of black safety shorts.

Qin Xun: "???"

Dressed so tightly, who the hell are you trying to keep out? Erlang Shen?

Mi Xier looked up with teary eyes.

"Mr. Qin, I've only been doing suggestive content for half a year!"

"You can scroll back through my old Douyin posts. Back then, I looked purer than a white lotus, but I just never got popular!"

"It's not that I want to do suggestive content; it's that you men like to watch it."

Qin Xun: "..."

He had finally witnessed this woman's talent for being unreasonable.

For some reason, he was now taking the blame for every man in the world.

What do you mean 'all men like suggestive content'?

Only little boys like suggestive content.

Real men watch heavy-duty bicycles hauling bananas, donkey hoof trimming, Forged in Fire, wilderness survival, and that damn Italian cannon!

Qin Xun walked to the side of the bed and sat down, looking at Mi Xier kneeling in front of him.

Mi Xier's clothes were messy, and she blinked her eyes, looking quite pitiful.

"Big brother, I've always been a law-abiding citizen."

"Even though I do suggestive content, I never cross the line!"

Qin Xun gave a cold laugh and reached out to grab his phone from the bedside table.

Mi Xier panicked.

"What are you doing?"

Qin Xun said.

"Calling the police!"

"While a woman's violence against a man might not be classified as rape, it can still be prosecuted as intentional injury and Indecent assault."

Mi Xier knelt all the way over and grabbed Qin Xun's phone, pleading.

"Don't be like this!"

"If this makes the news, my career will be over."

Qin Xun broke free from Mi Xier's grip and raised his foot, wanting to kick her away, but then he saw her crying like a pear blossom in the rain.

"Mr. Qin, my family is in a very difficult situation. Ever since I was a child, my mother told me..."

He tilted his head.

"Huh?"

"Do you hear what you're saying?"

"That's my line!"

Mi Xier sniffled.

"Mr. Qin, my family really is in a very difficult situation. My whole family relies on me to survive."

She wiped her tears and looked up, as if she had made a certain decision.

"As long as you don't call the police and don't do anything excessive to me..."

"I'll do whatever you want!"
