Transmigrated as a Villain, the Heroines’ Personas Have Collapsed
Chapter 25 - Hating Evil, Privileged Authority!

Chapter 25: Hating Evil, Privileged Authority!

The rooster crowed, and the morning sky glowed with dawn.

Today, Lin Tai had no plot to follow. Typically, without a storyline, he lounged at home.

Unlike the original’s obsessive simp, without plot pressure, Xia Shihan barely crossed his mind. He savored a breakfast meticulously prepared by Hecate, embracing a lazy day.

As Lin Tai hummed over his meal, his father, Lin Zhentian, hurried in.

“Dad, what’s got you so worked up?” With the plot not yet at its late stage, the Lin family’s business was thriving, so there was little to worry about.

“You little brat, did you offend someone out there?” Lin Zhentian’s brows furrowed as he sat.

That morning, news flooded in about Lin Tai and Ling Weifeng directing thugs to attack, complete with video evidence. By morning, both the Ling and Lin family stocks had dipped.

This minor setback didn’t faze Lin Zhentian—such hiccups were easily smoothed over with money for a family of their stature.

What surprised him was the failure of their online PR efforts. No matter how much he spent, they wouldn’t budge.

Clearly, someone was fanning the flames behind the scenes, targeting Lin Tai.

“Offend someone? I haven’t done much lately. If anyone, it’s Ye Bai,” Lin Tai mused. That male lead had a serious grudge against him.

“You brat, watch the video yourself,” Lin Zhentian said, puzzled. Though Lin Tai was unrefined, he rarely did anything truly heinous beyond chasing Xia Shihan.

“No matter what, learn from this. I don’t care if you pursue Xia Shihan, but if you resort to violence or crime for her, I won’t spare you.”

Lin Zhentian doted on his son but had principles. Mistakes warranted criticism and punishment.

Lin Tai logged into Weibo, and the sight stunned him—his assault video topped trending, with over a billion views across platforms.

Was this Lu Ziyan’s doing? Compared to his past life, the impact was milder.

He recalled how, in his previous life, Lu Ziyan uploaded the video in the morning, and with the Lu family’s push, it hit three billion views by afternoon.

Public opinion turned against him, crowning Ye Bai a national idol while branding Lin Tai a pariah, landing him in jail for days.

Who’d have thought? After yesterday’s chaotic plot, Lu Ziyan overperformed today! Though the public backlash was less severe than before, it proved she sided with Ye Bai.

Lin Tai nodded to himself—heroines were heroines; they wouldn’t back a vicious supporting character like him.

If Lu Ziyan hadn’t deviated, yesterday’s “trap” might’ve been real. Damn! As a villain, not falling into a heroine’s scheme was a failure!

Lin Tai admitted his haste. Next time, he’d cooperate fully—maybe even speed up his return!

“Dad, I’ll handle my own mess,” Lin Tai shrugged. In his past life, jail was just a short vacation.

Though Lin Zhentian claimed non-interference, his love prevailed. He pulled strings for Lin Tai to get a private cell and stayed at the office for days, eating plain meals until his release—principled yet sharing his son’s hardship.

As they spoke, police arrived outside the Lin estate.

“Captain, this is suspect Lin Tai’s residence,” the officers said, upholding the law. Leading them was a female officer, Su Yanfei.

“I know this place better than you,” Su Yanfei said, almost forgetting how many times she’d entered the Lin home. Over time, the original residents had moved out.

Taking a deep breath, she strode into the Lin estate.

“Miss Su, you’re here,” Lin Zhentian greeted her without surprise. The Su family controlled the lawful world, but its main line produced two daughters.

The elder, Su Qingyan, shunned politics for entertainment.

The younger, Su Yanfei—her name suggesting gentleness—was a staunch, upright soul.

The Su family groomed her to succeed, assigning her to the police force for training. There, she thrived, arresting vicious criminals and fearless rich heirs no one else dared touch!

In China, her motto held: “I’ll handle what others can, and what they can’t, I’ll tackle even more—hating evil, privileged by authority!”

That was Su Yanfei!!!

Since she became captain, crime rates among the capital’s rich heirs plummeted. Few dared cross this formidable woman.

Arresting Lin Tai, a task others avoided, naturally fell to Su Yanfei!
