Chapter 871 They're all crazy

Lin Tan was taken aback.

“If you’re satisfied with my character, job, and personality, we can get our marriage certificate right now,” Qin Mo said, looking directly at him. “The wedding can be held later.”

"You..." Lin Tan's mind went blank for a moment.

She had considered all the things he wanted to say to her, but this was the last thing she had thought of.

"This is the result of my careful consideration," Qin Mo said. "You can ask me any questions you may have."

"Have you forgotten our last conversation?" Lin Tan suppressed the flutter in her heart, maintaining a rather distant attitude.

She didn't know why Qin Mo suddenly told her all this.

I don't know why he used a car accident to test me.

But if she gets together with Qin Mo, Huo Sinian really will take action.

"I know those weren't your intentions, and I'm sorry for what I said to you last time," Qin Mo said patiently. "If you care about me, I hope we can face this together."

"I am Huo Sinian's fiancée," Lin Tan reminded him.

“That was one-sided on his part; you didn’t accept it.” Qin Mo saw it clearly. “Many things you did were out of necessity, under her coercion.”

Lin Tan pursed her lips: "What if I volunteer?"

Qin Mo: "Then I have no choice but to offend you and take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau."

Lin Tan: "?"

Lin Tan looked at him in disbelief.

It seemed that no one expected Qin Mo, such a refined person, to say such rebellious words.

"Before I came, I thought you would refuse, and I also thought you would continue to distance yourself from me for your own good," Qin Mo said clearly. "All I could do was use force to tie me to this."

"Qin Mo..." Lin Tan didn't recognize him.

"I only like you. Even if you reject me, I will still make it clear that I like you." Qin Mo let her see his heart. "I will pursue you openly and honestly, and I will stop Huo Sinian from hurting you."

Lin Tan didn't know how to reply.

The original plan was to use those reasons to shut him up and let him know that she was a selfish person.

But his unwavering resolve clearly indicated that he had certainty about something.

"There are two things I want to tell you," Qin Mo said.

Lin Tan looked at him.

“The car accident I was in last time had nothing to do with Huo Sinian; it was caused by the driver being fatigued.” Qin Mo’s gaze remained on her. “Grandpa has already agreed to our marriage, so you don’t need to feel guilty.”

Lin Tan did not believe it.

If it were truly unrelated, how could Qin Luofeng have received the text message?

She remembered everything he said to her that day, especially that sentence:

"If you really care about him, I hope you can break up with him. No matter how good the security is, it's impossible to guard against all the conspiracies and tricks in the dark. You probably don't want to see him disregard his family and put himself in danger for your sake."

She has never received much care or attention growing up.

No one cared about her or loved her except Lin Ling.

As a result, she values ​​relationships very much. She was willing to act by Huo Sinian's side for Lin Ling's safety back then, and now she is willing to give up everything for Qin Mo's safety.

It might seem stupid to outsiders.

But for her, all she wanted was for the people she cared about to be safe and healthy.

“If it were the old me, I might have stayed with you just to spite Huo Sinian.” Lin Tan didn’t give herself away. “But now I think you’re a good person, and I don’t want to hurt you.”

Qin Mo's expression remained unchanged.

Lin Tan said bluntly, "Thank you for liking me, but I don't like you."

Qin Mo: "Why?"

Lin Tan: "What?"

Qin Mo: "Why don't you like me?"

Lin Tan made up some excuse: "Maybe you're too rigid? Or maybe you're too boring? I haven't fallen for you even after spending so much time with you..."

"Hmm—"

Lin Tan's words were cut off before she could finish speaking.

She stared wide-eyed at the magnified face in front of her, feeling his slightly cold yet soft touch on her lips.

"And now?" Qin Mo released her. "Do you still think I'm rigid and boring?"

Lin Tan's mind went completely blank.

I forgot to answer, I forgot to do the action.

"Lin Tan, Huo Sinian isn't the only one who would resort to force and robbery." Qin Mo's eyes were pitch black. "If you continue to distance yourself from me for reasons I don't care about, I will go even further than him."

"You..." Lin Tan's heart was in turmoil.

“I used to restrain myself because of respect and affection,” Qin Mo said. “But if restraint becomes what you call boring and rigid, I will temporarily abandon it.”

"Then what's the difference between you and Huo Sinian?" Lin Tan asked deliberately.

She was afraid that if she didn't speak up, she would unconsciously sink into depravity, be led astray by Qin Mo, listen to his wishes and be with him, and then Huo Sinian would intervene and Qin Mo would get into trouble.

Just thinking about that.

She wouldn't be able to accept it, and she would regret it even more.

“There is a difference,” Qin Mo replied. “You don’t like him, but you have me in your heart.”

He knew that Lin Tan's feelings for him hadn't yet reached the level of love.

He also knew that she only admired and liked him.

But that's enough; she likes him.

"I told you, all that was just an act for you," Lin Tan stubbornly insisted. "I have no feelings for you, and I don't like you."

Qin Mo moved closer to her: "Really?"

Lin Tan firmly replied, "Yes."

Qin Mo's gaze fell on her chest: "Then why was your heart beating so fast when I kissed you just now?"

Lin Tan: "I'm scared."

Qin Mo: "Afraid your ears will turn red?"

Lin Tan: "That's anger."

Qin Mo: "If you're so angry, why don't you slap me?"

Lin Tan swallowed hard, realizing for the first time that Qin Mo, who was usually stern and unsmiling, could be so quick-witted: "I'm afraid that if I hit you, it will make you angry, and what if you kill me then?"

"Aren't you afraid I'll get angry if you refuse me?" Qin Mo retorted.

“It’s different.” Lin Tan was full of excuses. “Refusal is verbal, but hitting you can be classified as physical assault.”

Qin Mo looked into her eyes: "Then why did you chat with Huo Sinian for so long?"

Lin Tan paused.

Qin Mo answered for her: "You won't."

Lin Tan: "Of course not, because he and I have a love-hate relationship."

"Getting a marriage certificate with me won't stop you from your love-hate relationship." After saying this, Qin Mo left her and headed straight for her bedroom.

He found her usual bag and took out her ID card from it.

Lin Tan: "?"

Lin Tan hurriedly stopped him: "What are you doing?"

"Either come with me to get the marriage certificate now, or call the police and say I broke into your home and committed robbery, and also assaulted you." Qin Mo gave her a choice.

He understood Lin Tan's actions and knew why she did them.

Therefore, he understood even better that she needed to be forced to tell the truth and reveal her most authentic self.

"Okay." Lin Tan took out her phone.

The emergency number was pressed on it.

She performed these actions very slowly, and even pretended to be angry and excited, entering the wrong number.

She hoped Qin Mo would stop her and take her phone away.

But Qin Mo is not Huo Sinian; he truly cares about Lin Tan, so he respects her choice.

Just as she finished typing the last digit of the police number, Qin Mo spoke up: "When the police arrive, I'll confess to everything. I'll also take a few of your valuables and hide them on your person before they arrive, to make it easier to determine your sentence."

Lin Tan thought he was crazy.

But it's different from Huo Sinian's madness.

Huo Sinian's madness lies in using any underhanded tricks he can think of on her, while Qin Mo's madness lies in his complete disregard for his own reputation and safety.

"Do you want me to press the dial button for you?" Qin Mo walked up to her and tapped her phone screen with his finger.

Just as he was about to touch her, Lin Tan quickly moved away.
