Chapter 4 : Police Handling

As soon as the words were spoken, Bai Ruoxi felt a sudden pain in her wrist. Without any awareness, the gun in her hand had been snatched away. The man swiftly held her wrist and pressed it against the pillow. His strong and imposing figure overwhelmed her. In that moment, Bai Ruoxi was completely stunned, unsure of what to do, and could only feel her heart pounding violently. Although she was afraid, she still couldn't help but feel a glimmer of anticipation. In a hoarse and authoritative voice, the man warned, "Bai Ruoxi, don't provoke me. The farther you stay away, the better." "Third Brother, you have great power. This small favor is nothing. As long as you can save my mother, I will agree to any request you have." Qiao Xuanshuo narrowed his dangerous black eyes and coldly asked, "Including sleeping with other men?" Bai Ruoxi's heart skipped a beat, her rhythm disrupted. If that man was him, she wouldn't mind. "Mmm!" Bai Ruoxi weakly responded. Qiao Xuanshuo suddenly jumped off the bed, roughly grabbing her wrist and forcefully dragging her towards the door. "Ah..." Bai Ruoxi couldn't react in time and stumbled as she was dragged along. Along the way, she bumped into furniture and door corners, her knees hurting so much that she couldn't walk properly, almost falling several times. The man's strength was incredibly powerful, gripping her wrist as if he wanted to crush it, causing her to feel weak all over from the pain. "Third Brother..." Bai Ruoxi pleaded weakly, "Please listen to me. I really have no other options. Please... help me..." The corridor was brightly lit. Bai Ruoxi looked at the man's broad back and his cold and heartless aura, and her heart sank to the bottom. He didn't care for her well-being and threw her into a room guarded by soldiers. The soldiers stood at attention as Qiao Xuanshuo kicked open the door as if he were alone. "Bang..." A deafening sound echoed. Everyone in the room, who had been sleeping, was startled and looked towards the door in fear. Qiao Xuanshuo didn't enter the room. Instead, he forcefully threw Bai Ruoxi inside. With great strength, she was thrown to the ground, leaving bloodstains on her palms from scraping against the floor. "Hiss." Bai Ruoxi frowned in pain, her palm torn and her complexion turning pale. Qiao Xuanshuo looked down at Bai Ruoxi from above, his face as dark as ink, extremely unattractive. In a cold and decisive tone, he said, "Hand this woman over to the police along with these people." The soldier on guard received the order and said, "Yes..." Biting her lower lip lightly, Bai Ruoxi slowly got up, tears welling up in her eyes. She heard the sound of Qiao Xuanshuo slamming the door and her heart shattered. Inside the room were a group of young models engaged in prostitution, as well as drug use. If they were handed over to the police, according to the laws of the country, they would have to spend at least half a year in prison. The lights in the room were still on, and the drowsy women whispered to each other. "Who is this?" "I don't know." "It turns out that a stranger has boarded our ship. No wonder the news leaked." "Let's not worry about it. Let's sleep and think about how to explain to the police tomorrow. The key is to avoid punishment." Several of the young models in the room went back to sleep. Bai Ruoxi looked around the room and fixed her gaze on the woman sitting quietly on the sofa. That woman, full of regret and pitiful, was none other than her half-sister, Bai Shanshan. Bai Shanshan stood up and walked in front of Bai Ruoxi. With a thud, she knelt heavily in front of Bai Ruoxi, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded, "Sister, I know I was wrong. I'm sorry, can you forgive me?" Bai Shanshan hugged Bai Ruoxi's feet, "Sister, I really know I was wrong." Bai Ruoxi's heart turned cold, a chill coming from the depths. She clenched her fists and looked down at Bai Shanshan, who was kneeling in front of her, without any warmth in her heart, unmoved by Bai Shanshan's tears. Bai Shanshan cried to herself, "My dream was to become a star. Tang Zong promised to help me win the championship in this modeling competition and make my debut smoothly. He wasn't interested in any other woman, he specifically wanted you. I was blinded by greed and made this mistake. Sister, you can hit me, scold me, do whatever you want, please forgive me this time." "Are you done talking?" Bai Ruoxi asked calmly and calmly. Bai Shanshan sniffled, looked up at Bai Ruoxi in surprise, and appeared remorseful. Bai Ruoxi stepped back, avoiding any contact with Bai Shanshan. In a calm tone, she said, "You don't have to kneel to me either." "Sister..." Bai Shanshan knelt on the ground and looked up expectantly, "Have you forgiven me?" Forgive? Bai Ruoxi sarcastically snorted, "I have never seen that man before. Don't make me pay for your dreams. Don't pretend to kneel in front of me anymore. Our sisterhood ends here." Bai Shanshan's face instantly turned dark, her gaze became contemptuous, and she impatiently let go of Bai Ruoxi's feet, immediately standing up from the ground and patting her knees. Her tone was full of disdain, "You made me kneel for nothing. So, you don't have any privileges either." Bai Ruoxi ignored her and walked to the door, trying to pull it open, but it was locked and wouldn't budge. She anxiously said, "Please open the door. I have something important to discuss with your general..." From behind, Bai Shanshan's voice filled with coldness and hostility came, "No wonder, your mother destroyed someone else's family and shamelessly married into it. You're the daughter of a mistress. It's no wonder they want to kill you." Bai Ruoxi clenched her fist, her anger rising, but she remained calm. Bai Shanshan crossed her arms and arrogantly mocked, "But it's no surprise. Your mother, that vicious woman, eventually committed a heinous crime and received retribution. Only you, who are so foolish, still want to rely on Qiao Xuanshuo to save your mother. It's simply..." Before Bai Shanshan could finish saying the word "stupid," Bai Ruoxi turned around and slapped her hard. "Smack." The crisp sound of the slap startled everyone, and they all looked at the two people at the door in astonishment. Bai Shanshan, humiliated and angry, covered her swollen and red face, stomping her feet in frustration, gritting her teeth, "How dare you hit me..."
