“Xiang Feili has fled into hiding from my relentless chase. She can't even defend herself these days.” Bai Qinghao remained completely calm. “That time, she stayed concealed while dispatching her subordinates to target me. I had no clue about her true identity back then. But now that her identity is clear to me, wiping her out will be a simple task.”
“Mm.” She gave a nod. “You still need to stay cautious.”
“No need to fret.” He softly rubbed her back. “I won’t let any danger come to you ever again.”
As for the rest of the people, even if Xiang Feili managed to seize them, they’d pose zero threat to him whatsoever.
Additionally, he assigned more guards to protect the Bai family elders.
…
Within the Bai family’s ancestral mansion, Bodyguard Liu Li led a group of men charging straight into the Jing Xin Residence.
In the living room, Bai Chenxi and Huang Zhishu, who had been deep in discussion, shot to their feet at once.
“Liu Li, what’s the meaning of this!” Bai Chenxi bellowed. “This is Jing Xin Residence, our assigned home from the Bai family. No matter that you’re Bai Qinghao’s personal bodyguard, I’m still part of the Bai family. You have no right to burst into our place!”
Liu Li ignored him entirely.
With a glance at his men, he signaled them. Four bodyguards swiftly grabbed Bai Chenxi and Huang Zhishu by the arms.
A woman in nurse attire stepped forward, carrying a medical kit. She pulled out a syringe and moved toward Bai Chenxi, yanking back his sleeve.
Bai Chenxi suddenly realized what was happening. His face drained of color as he yelled, “What do you think you’re doing?”
He fought fiercely, preventing the nurse from drawing his blood.
Two bodyguards wrenched his arms behind his back and slammed his body down. They pinned his head against the coffee table, rendering Bai Chenxi completely immobile.
Finding the syringe awkward in that position, the nurse rolled up his sleeve further and ditched it. Instead, she sliced a small incision on his wrist with a scalpel and gathered the blood.
“What in the world are you doing?” Bai Chenxi cried out in terror.
The nurse stayed silent. She then advanced on Huang Zhishu with the syringe in hand.
Huang Zhishu’s brows furrowed deeply. “No matter what, I hold half-ownership in the Bai family. Aren’t you scared I’ll report this to Elder Bai and have you all dismissed?”
“Who do you think you’re intimidating?” Liu Li showed no reaction. “In the Bai family, the Boss’s command is absolute. Elder Bai has no say in this matter. Forget about getting me fired—you’d better worry about your own fate first.”
Huang Zhishu saw resistance was pointless, so she cooperated quietly as the nurse drew her blood.
Her voice shook as she questioned, “Bodyguard Liu, why take our blood? Is it… for a medical examination?”
“Keep dreaming.” Liu Li sneered. “You know exactly why better than anyone!”
He refused to let this scheming woman extract any information from him.
Huang Zhishu’s face turned ashen white. Had Chenxi’s true identity been exposed?
And Jingrou… she was blind, paralyzed, and rotting in prison right now…
If Chenxi and Jingrou’s secrets came out, their entire family was finished!
They couldn’t risk that. The instant Liu Li departed, Huang Zhishu resolved to flee with Chenxi.
Spotting the cunning glint in the old woman’s eyes, Liu Li knew she was plotting once more. “Thinking of escaping? Not a chance. Boss ordered us to bind you both and lock you away! You’ll be under strict surveillance!”
Bai Chenxi’s face went deathly pale. Tremors wracked his entire body.
Huang Zhishu shook just as badly. She could hardly stay on her feet.
Both were hauled off to the Bai family’s holding cells.
Upon hearing they’d been imprisoned, Elder Bai rang up Bai Qinghao demanding answers.
Bai Qinghao simply told him to stay out of it, promising a full explanation later.
