Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 906 - 0 is going to have a headache! (First update)

Lin Qiao’er opened the door and was momentarily stunned to see a foreign face. She frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

"This is Ye Qiu’s residence. What are you doing here?" Caroline didn’t answer Lin Qiao’er’s question but instead threw a question back at her.

The two words "Ye Qiu" in her Chinese sentence sounded less smooth, carrying a distinct foreigner’s accent, her intonation habitually rising at the end.

Driven by a woman’s sixth sense, Lin Qiao’er felt this woman had a significant relationship with Ye Qiu. Otherwise, why would she counter her like this?

Thinking about her current rivals in love already gave her enough headaches—there was Fang Sijie, a fierce competitor, and now here came a foreign woman.

What’s worse, this foreign woman was slightly more outstanding in every aspect. Lin Qiao’er felt the growing pressure.

Returning a polite smile, Lin Qiao’er said, "The person you’re looking for is not here. Please check elsewhere."

Her words were exceedingly polite. Lin Qiao’er naturally wouldn’t allow such a strong rival to step into the villa, so she immediately denied that this was Ye Qiu’s residence.

Caroline frowned. The security guard earlier clearly told her this was the place. Everyone she had asked about Ye Qiu also directed her to Fengshan Villa. There couldn’t be a mistake. If there was an error, it had to be caused by the woman standing in front of her.

Caroline fixed her gaze on Lin Qiao’er, and their eyes instantly met.

Lin Qiao’er’s gaze was calm and composed. She smiled faintly without a hint of disturbance. After all, she, Lin Qiao’er, had seen all kinds of situations. When it came to lying, she could do it without blushing or her heart racing.

Caroline, too, was no ordinary person. Having once roamed the assassin world and earned the title of "Duchess," she was skilled at observation. One was set on concealing the truth, and the other was determined to uncover something.

After a long moment of staring, Caroline finally said, "If he’s not here, then thank you. I won’t disturb you further."

Caroline turned as if to leave, and Lin Qiao’er let out a small sigh of relief. A trace of triumph flickered in her gaze. However, at that very moment, Caroline suddenly turned back, catching the gleam of smugness in Lin Qiao’er’s eyes.

There was definitely something suspicious here.

If this isn’t Ye Qiu’s residence, why would this woman show such a satisfied expression?

Both being women, Caroline was no less clever than Lin Qiao’er. She instantly turned back and said, "I’m new to China and unfamiliar with the place. I’m feeling a bit thirsty. Would it be possible for me to come in for some water?"

Lin Qiao’er’s heart skipped a beat. She felt as though she had let slip a subtle clue just now. Claiming adamantly that Ye Qiu didn’t live here, she could hardly let Caroline in. Otherwise, if Ye Qiu suddenly came downstairs, her lie would fall apart in an instant.

"I’m sorry. My child was just born not long ago, and I don’t want outsiders coming in to avoid bringing in bacteria. As a fellow woman, you should understand," Lin Qiao’er fabricated another excuse on the spot.

"Alright, thank you then. Sorry for troubling you." Caroline still harbored doubts, but Lin Qiao’er’s excuse was nearly flawless. Coupled with her composed expression, Caroline believed her, if only a little.

Just as Caroline was about to leave, a lazy and casual voice called out from behind Lin Qiao’er.

"Who are you talking to?"

Lin Qiao’er’s face darkened. Of all times, why did Ye Qiu have to come downstairs now? Couldn’t he have waited just one more minute? She could see that Caroline was just about to leave.

Hearing the voice, Caroline’s body shifted, and in the blink of an eye, she stepped inside the villa.

Lin Qiao’er blinked in surprise, only to see Caroline dart into the house.

"Caroline!"

When Ye Qiu saw Caroline, he was genuinely shocked. Why had this woman come to China?

"Surprised, aren’t you?" Caroline said with a smile.

Ye Qiu nodded frantically.

"You told me I could come find you in China, so here I am," Caroline said.

As she spoke, she walked up to Ye Qiu. Standing right before him, she unashamedly threw her arms around him.

Seeing this, Lin Qiao’er’s lips pouted so much that you could hang a bottle from them. She cursed this foreign woman in her heart for being too outrageous.

Feeling a pang of jealousy, Lin Qiao’er coughed lightly. Ye Qiu, realizing Lin Qiao’er was also present, quickly pulled away.

"Uh... please, have a seat." Ye Qiu was at a loss for words, while Caroline silently enjoyed his embarrassed expression in amusement.

Caroline sat down on the sofa, and Ye Qiu asked Lin Qiao’er to pour some water.

From Lin Qiao’er’s reluctant expression, Caroline quickly deduced that this woman also liked Ye Qiu. That was why she’d lied earlier about Ye Qiu not being home.

In Caroline’s eyes, Lin Qiao’er had become a scheming woman. However, when Caroline deliberately evaluated Lin Qiao’er’s figure, she couldn’t help but feel a bit smug—her own appearance was in no way inferior to this Chinese beauty.

The unspoken rivalry between the two women went unnoticed by Ye Qiu, who only felt that Lin Qiao’er and Caroline seemed to be subtly competing with one another. They had just met, yet they seemed ready to butt heads. Couldn’t people just get along? Ye Qiu felt his head hurt.

He had a feeling Caroline’s arrival was going to spark a war among women at his villa.

Around Ye Qiu, Caroline shed the refined demeanor of a duchess. She enjoyed trailing after him, peppering him with questions about China, which made Lin Qiao’er’s eyes practically shoot fire. She truly couldn’t imitate Caroline’s demeanor—Caroline’s inquiries about Chinese culture came naturally, while Lin Qiao’er would have sounded fake and contrived.

Having been outmaneuvered by Lin Qiao’er before, Caroline took advantage of a moment when Ye Qiu wasn’t paying attention to show Lin Qiao’er a subtle pinky gesture, signaling her victory this time.

Lin Qiao’er, having been underestimated, was furious but couldn’t lash out and had to endure.

Settling into the villa, Caroline was amazed at the presence of Jin Yu. It was her first time seeing such a magnificent, beautiful bird.

Lin Qiao’er had already grown accustomed to Haidongqing’s intelligence, so she leaned in close and whispered into Jin Yu’s ear, trying to provoke it to scare Caroline.

However, Lin Qiao’er was quickly disappointed. Not only did Jin Yu not peck at Caroline, but it also closed its eyes in enjoyment as Caroline gently groomed its feathers.

"Hmph, this guy is just like its owner—worships all things foreign. Ignoring a great beauty like me, it prefers some foreigner," Lin Qiao’er grumbled indignantly. "Men really are all the same. It doesn’t matter the country; as long as she’s pretty, that’s all they care about."

Men are such pigs!

The more Lin Qiao’er thought, the angrier she became. She thought about how she, Lin Qiao’er, had everything going for her. How could she possibly lose to someone else? Even Jin Yu didn’t seem to favor her. And as for Ye Qiu, now every time he saw her, he seemed ready to take a detour to avoid her.

"It’s too much—just too much! Ye Qiu, you pigheaded fool! All men are pigheaded fools!"

Pouting in frustration, Lin Qiao’er sulked like an aggrieved little wife.
