"Sir, how did you get up here?" The host asked, feigning ignorance. How else could he have gotten up there? He obviously jumped. Of course, for the host, the situation was a bit complicated.
There were too many fans, and the pressure on him as the host was immense. Fortunately, experts from the Special Department were safeguarding the scene. There were also plenty of ordinary bodyguards. These bodyguards were all muscle-bound and burly, forming a perfect human wall capable of withstanding the overwhelming pressure of the crowd.
At this moment, there was a slight problem. Wang Shuo, a professional host, faced with this sudden situation, demonstrated absolute professionalism. He could handle anything without panicking.
He walked towards Lin Fan with a smile and waved for the bodyguards to come and escort the man down. This required professional handling, discreetly and without attracting attention, smoothly removing him and restoring order.
Lin Fan pushed Wang Shuo away. This guy was annoying, constantly blocking his view.
Wang Shuo was ready to sacrifice himself to save his goddess. If he got beaten up, hospitalized even, it would be the best outcome. Maybe the goddess would even come to visit him personally. This was something countless people dreamed of.
He screamed internally, Hit me! Beat me! If you dare, injure me enough to send me to the hospital, but don't kill me!
Mu Qing looked at him curiously. She felt that this stranger's gaze was a bit off, like something was wrong. She wasn't afraid that he would do anything untoward to her. She was surrounded by bodyguards, and there were experts from the Special Department. If she could be in danger here, she wouldn't have been able to travel to so many places and arrive safely in Yanhai City.
Mu Qing wasn't as fragile as one might imagine. Faced with uncontrollable situations, she wouldn't scream. Who am I? I'm Mu Qing!
Just as the bodyguards were about to pounce, Lin Fan swiftly reached Mu Qing's side. Under her stunned gaze, he opened his arms, embraced her, and spun around.
"Wife, I knew you were alright!" Lin Fan was overjoyed. He hadn't expected to actually find his wife. However, he hadn't considered one thing: dreams are dreams, reality is reality. How could the same person appear in both?
"Mua!"
Just as Mu Qing was about to resist, Lin Fan puckered his lips and showered her face with kisses.
Lin Fan held Mu Qing, gazing into her eyes, "Are you happy to see me?"
"Very surprised," Mu Qing stared, dumbfounded, at the strange man. She wasn't enjoying the kisses; she was utterly bewildered. She didn't know what was happening.
"I knew you wouldn't die." Lin Fan's head was buzzing. Mua! He kissed Mu Qing's red lips, cupping her face. Mua! Mua! Like a pecking chick, again and again, without stopping.
The scene erupted.
The host froze, dumbfounded, as if he had seen a ghost. He had never imagined such a thing happening, and on the stage he was hosting, no less. It was a huge disgrace to his professional career. The idol I'm hosting is being forcibly kissed by a stranger in public, and so many times! This is outrageous! Bastard! You have no respect for me!
The reporters captured this explosive scene. It would definitely blow up the internet tomorrow. No, wait… there were so many people present, so many eyes witnessing this. Many were recording the scene with their phones. Once it was posted online, who knew what kind of impact it would have.
Wails filled the air.
"Damn it! My goddess! Is this for real?"
"Who is he? Give me his details within a minute. I'm going to kill him!"
"No… stop kissing! You've bruised the goddess's lips!"
The fans below were dumbfounded. They hadn't expected this. Were those bodyguards just for show? They couldn't even stop one person. What use were they?
Seeing this, the Demon God's little sister felt envious. It wasn't that she wanted to be kissed, but if it were her, she could have replenished her blood within this short time. She was so angry.
Old Zhang muttered, "How can he molest a stranger?"
The Special Department members protecting Mu Qing were dumbfounded. Liu Ying's jaw dropped, and the chewing gum fell out of his mouth.
"My god, he's serious!" Liu Ying rushed out, stopping the approaching bodyguards. Others might not know who Lin Fan was, but he did. He was incredibly powerful. If a conflict arose, these bodyguards would be knocked out with a single punch.
"Lin Fan, let go!" What else could Liu Ying say? He could only try to keep Lin Fan calm, not to act impulsively, and especially not to perform a "multi-person exercise" in front of so many people. If it was photographed, his life would be over.
"You're here too?" Lin Fan released his hold, scratching his head shyly. Performing such intimate acts in front of so many people was embarrassing.
Mu Qing took the opportunity to move far away. She had now realized that she had been taken advantage of, in public no less.
Her agent immediately called the police, glaring at Lin Fan as if she wanted to devour him, roaring internally, How could you do this? Do you know how much this will affect Mu Qing?
Call the police! We must call the police! He should be imprisoned, locked up for life!
Liu Ying tried to reason with him, urging him not to do anything excessive. But when he heard Lin Fan say that this woman was his wife, Liu Ying was truly stunned.
Wife? Damn, that's a pretty domineering excuse.
"Sister Mu, are you alright?" the agent comforted her.
Mu Qing shook her head, saying she was fine, but her gaze towards Lin Fan was furious. Her first kiss, her… and the saliva on her face. It was disgusting. She had never thought such a thing would happen. Her security measures were always top-notch. To be honest, Liu Ying had inadvertently helped Lin Fan this time. If he hadn't stopped the Special Department members from intervening, Lin Fan would have had a hard time hugging and kissing her.
"Wife, it's me! Don't you recognize me?" Lin Fan waved at Mu Qing, who was standing some distance away, looking excited.
Mu Qing's face turned pale with anger. He had taken advantage of her and now he was calling her his wife in public.
"Pervert!" Mu Qing shouted angrily.
Wah! Wah! Wah! Unfamiliar sirens approached.
Mu Qing's agent explained the situation to the arriving officers. Liu Ying felt that things were getting troublesome. Although they were from the Special Department, they couldn't break the law. He quickly called One-Eyed Man.
One-Eyed Man's life hadn't been peaceful. He had been monitoring the tracker's movements. It was strange. He had told the other party about this to see if they were a traitor. Now there was no movement. He was actually a little disappointed. It was a strange thought, to actually hope the other party was a traitor. This kind of thinking was dangerous.
The phone rang.
"What is it?" He had no interest in anything except who the traitor was. But soon… his expression changed to disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.
"What did you say? Lin Fan kissed Mu Qing in front of tens of thousands of people? What were you all doing? You couldn't even watch one person? I'll think of something about this."
One-Eyed Man was stunned. He hadn't expected Lin Fan to be so bold.
"I underestimated the mentally ill," One-Eyed Man muttered. The situation was complicated and not easy to resolve. If it were an ordinary citizen, they could talk and compensate for the damages. But now, the person who committed the indecent act was a high-profile individual. This made things difficult.
After thinking it over, he could only think of Hao Ren. He immediately called him.
As soon as the call connected, One-Eyed Man took the initiative, forcefully starting, "Hao Ren, why didn't you tell me Lin Fan had such low resistance to women?"
"What are you talking about? Didn't you see the news online? He kissed Mu Qing in the mall, in front of tens of thousands of people. He's been arrested."
"I can't handle this right now. You have to take responsibility for this."
For One-Eyed Man, he felt his opening was perfect, completely suppressing Hao Ren. The rest would be easy, completely under control. He wouldn't get involved personally. Hao Ren had to handle everything.
At the police station, a group of officers pretended to be busy. They looked busy, but their eyes kept glancing at Mu Qing. They were ordinary people too. Their curiosity about celebrities was the same as everyone else's.
"Miss Mu, we've investigated the matter and gathered most of the evidence. How would you like to resolve this?" a middle-aged man asked.
As the person in charge, after finishing his work, he heard his subordinates report a major incident. His work ethic immediately kicked in. When he learned that a young man had kissed Mu Qing in public, he was utterly shocked. It wasn't because of the man's boldness, but because he was extremely doubtful of the security at the scene. That someone could seize the opportunity, get on stage, and kiss someone in public was terrifying.
The agent said angrily, "How else can it be resolved? Arrest him, imprison him, and give him a heavy sentence! It's outrageous! Do you know how much this affects us? And those security personnel, they're like idiots, letting him on stage. Even an ordinary person would have reacted in that time."
The middle-aged man said with deep feeling, "Indeed, the security work was inadequate. If it were us, this would never have happened."
He knew the security personnel there were ordinary bodyguards and the Special Department. He disregarded the ordinary bodyguards. He wanted to compare himself to the Special Department. When the evil creatures attacked, although they weren't the main force, they had provided significant support, and many had sacrificed their lives fighting against the evil creatures. But the citizens only knew and appreciated the Special Department, forgetting them. Was this even human?
The agent said, "We should have hired you for security."
The middle-aged man smiled calmly. Hearing this was enough for him.
"Ahem!"
Liu Ying, standing not far away, heard their conversation and pretended to cough. Although their departments were indeed rivals, they didn't have to be so blunt. He was right there.
Liu Ying hadn't left. He had followed them. Now he was thinking about how to get Lin Fan out. This matter was troublesome. Members of the Special Department had no special privileges.
"Miss Mu, this incident was indeed caused by our negligence. We won't deny that. But I have a somewhat unreasonable request, and I hope Miss Mu will agree."
Just as Liu Ying was about to speak, Mu Qing, who had been silent, slowly said, "Since it's an unreasonable request, there's no need to say it. I won't exaggerate this matter. Everything will be handled according to the law."
The middle-aged man said, "Rest assured, Miss Mu, we will handle it impartially."
Liu Ying felt helpless. He shouldn't have said it was an unreasonable request.
"You know his name, right?" Liu Ying asked.
"Yes, why?"
"Then do you know about the incident where the evil creature army invaded and was finally stopped by one person?" Liu Ying wanted them to know that the person they had locked up was that hero.
The middle-aged man said righteously, "I know who he is, but we can't ignore the law just because of who he is. Anyone who breaks the law, as a representative of justice, a defender of the law, I must bring any criminal to justice."
As he said this, he felt that justice had truly descended.
The entire department's legal standing was suddenly elevated because of his defense.
Before their idol...
His image became grand.
He displayed a kind of backbone, integrity, and unyielding spirit to the members of the special department.
He absolutely wouldn't bow down to the powerful and influential.
He was already fantasizing about how his subordinates, upon hearing his words, would surely admire him even more.
Mu Qing prepared to leave. Yanhai City was a terrible place. Anger and frustration welled up inside her, but her composure told her she couldn't lose her temper. She had to remain calm.
Calm as still water, not a trace of panic.
Just then...
A voice rang out.
"It's been a while since I've been here."
Everyone followed the sound. Several people in white coats were carrying a stretcher.
"What's going on? Do you know where this is?" the middle-aged man asked, frowning. Where did these people come from? How did they appear here?
Hao Ren searched for Lin Fan and Old Zhang. Not finding them, he saw the man yelling, so he directly placed his identification card in the man's hand.
"See for yourself."
Hao Ren perfectly projected an air of authority, his aura dominating the scene. Then, seeing Mu Qing, his cloudy old eyes flashed.
"You're even more beautiful in person than on television."
The middle-aged man looked over the ID. A line of large characters caught his attention. He read aloud:
"Green Mountain Mental Hospital."
Hao Ren smiled. "Yes, that's right, Green Mountain Mental Hospital. Release them."
"Release who?" the middle-aged man asked. He was bewildered by Hao Ren. Showing him an ID and expecting him to release someone? Did he think it was a get-out-of-jail-free card?
"The two you arrested. They are patients from my Green Mountain Mental Hospital. They have severe mental illnesses. Detaining them here has a significant impact on their emotional state and will worsen their condition. Hurry up and release them. I need to take them back," Hao Ren urged. When One-Eyed Man called him, he knew the guy wanted to wash his hands of the situation.
Besides, this matter was indeed troublesome.
Publicly molesting a well-known figure was a serious offense.
Kissing and hugging.
Doing what many wouldn't dare to do.
"You..."
The middle-aged man stared wide-eyed, not expecting this turn of events.
"No 'you' or 'we'. Just hurry up. Why did you have to arrest my Green Mountain Mental Hospital patients?" Hao Ren said, patting the man's shoulder.
Then he looked at Mu Qing.
"Miss Mu, I'm so sorry you were frightened. After I take them back, I'll increase their medication. This will absolutely never happen again."
Mu Qing didn't speak. Her agent, however, couldn't help but say, "How can you do this? I suspect you're falsifying information."
Suddenly...
The agent shuddered.
"You say I'm falsifying information?" Hao Ren narrowed his eyes, a chill emanating from them. "Young lady, you can speak carelessly about food, but not about this. I, Hao Ren, have run Green Mountain Mental Hospital for decades. I'm a renowned expert internationally. You say I'm faking it?"
Director Hao's imposing manner intimidated the agent.
Head lowered...
She didn't dare to meet Director Hao's gaze.
At this moment, Liu Ying admired the leader immensely. He was too awesome.
He even thought of this method to get Lin Fan out.
Actually, Old Zhang was the most difficult to deal with.
Because Old Zhang was even more outrageous than Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan was being taken away, Old Zhang insisted on going with him. But the officers told him, "You haven't committed a crime, why would we arrest you?"
The officer was a woman...
Reasonably attractive.
Facing an elderly gentleman, she wasn't too cautious. Then, something horrifying happened. Old Zhang forcibly kissed the female officer.
The scene almost exploded.
Too outrageous!
The officer was stunned by the surprise attack, then burst into tears.
The result was obvious.
Both were arrested.
Hao Ren was a man of principle. He never falsified anything. These two were truly mental patients.
Honest and trustworthy.
Absolutely no deception.
Soon...
Lin Fan and Old Zhang emerged, smiles on their faces.
They were in good spirits.
"Wife."
Lin Fan waved to Mu Qing from afar.
Director Hao looked at Lin Fan strangely.
"Could it be they've discovered the mental patients have recovered?"
Although they could take advantage of their status as mental patients to do excessive things...
That wasn't allowed.
If discovered, they would definitely be confined to a single room, bound with chains – the whole nine yards. Strolling around would be impossible.
"Let's go."
Mu Qing hurriedly left with her agent.
She wasn't stupid.
Earlier, not knowing they were mental patients, she was fearless.
But now, she was truly afraid.
Stay here and continue to be taken advantage of?
Lin Fan noticed his wife seemed reluctant to acknowledge him. It wasn't like this before. She used to love clinging to him, accompanying him wherever he went.
Strange.
"Is she angry?"
