Bai Xi frowned, staring at the person in front of her. After a careful observation, she finally recognized him and asked, "Qin Mu? What are you doing in the Dark Division?"
The person was none other than Qin Mu, who had been handed over to the Dark Division by the Security Bureau.
Qin Mu held onto the iron bars of his confinement with both hands, his face a picture of fawning supplication. "Bai Xi, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have deliberately slandered Yao Yao, nor should I have indulged Zheng Qian's vicious words towards you. I truly know I was wrong. Please, give me a chance, and I will change… Please, let me out!"
Hearing her words, a scene flashed in Bai Xi's mind.
It was what happened when she and Tong Yao went to the Huaman Bridal Customization Studio.
Qin Mu had provoked them, and then she had taught her a lesson, ultimately resolving the matter perfectly.
But… why had they gone there at that time? Was Tong Yao supposed to be customizing a dress? But what happened afterward… why couldn't she remember anything after dealing with Qin Mu?
Not at all.
And when did it happen? Was it before dealing with the Lord of the Kui Hall? But that didn't seem right either…
As she thought, Bai Xi pressed her temples.
Seeing this, Bai Han immediately said, "Xiao Xi, you haven't recovered yet. We should go back and rest early."
With that, he prepared to take Bai Xi away.
Qin Mu had been calling out to heaven and earth here for days, unable to find help, and had been locked up in solitude. Although the Dark Division had not subjected him to any terrible punishment, he was already terrified by the screams of pain from the hardened criminals being punished nearby every day.
Now, having finally seen Bai Xi and knowing her influence within the Dark Division, how could he miss this opportunity? "Miss Bai, don't go, please don't go! Let me out, please let me out."
Bai Xi, who had no intention of dealing with this scum who had slandered Tong Yao and deliberately sowed discord between women, continued to walk out with Bai Han.
Seeing Bai Xi walking further away, Qin Mu panicked even more. Thinking of the man who had advised Bai Xi to leave earlier, he suddenly seemed to understand something. "Miss Bai, please spare me. As long as you spare me, I'm willing to serve you well. Although my looks don't compare to your fiancé or this man beside you, I have other skills… You'll know once you try."
Rich and powerful men like beautiful women.
So, what do powerful and influential women like? Naturally, handsome men.
That man at the Huaman Bridal Customization Studio had claimed to be Bai Xi's fiancé, but in the blink of an eye, Bai Xi had another man by her side, who also seemed very intimate with her. Both men were handsome and possessed their own unique charm, undoubtedly chosen personally by Bai Xi.
If others could do it, why couldn't he?
He had known since he was young that he was not bad-looking, otherwise, so many women wouldn't have been willing to spend money on him and dedicate themselves to him. Moreover, his energy was extremely vigorous. He could eat this kind of "soft rice."
If he could get close to Bai Xi, wouldn't that be better than Zheng Qian?
For a moment, he couldn't help but praise his own vision and perspective.
As he spoke, he didn't forget to reveal the pose that had always attracted women the most.
He looked at Bai Xi with his large, innocent eyes, tinged with seven parts grievance and three parts melancholy.
Bai Xi indeed stopped and looked at Qin Mu.
Sensing Bai Xi's gaze, Qin Mu couldn't help but feel excited.
As expected, he was still quite charming to women.
Being able to get out was only the first step. In the future, he would find a way to make the woman in front of him infatuated with him. This way, he could rely on her as a mighty tree, getting whatever he wanted.
Thinking of this, a hint of excitement flickered in Qin Mu's eyes.
But he didn't know that he had been locked in the Dark Division for several days. His hair was messy and greasy, and stubble had grown on his chin. His usually fair and pitiable face was now shiny with oil. Perhaps because of the oppressive environment here, he hadn't slept well, and his dark circles were very prominent. Combined with his once-thought-to-be-charming expression, he looked like a fallen beggar.
A delusional, foolish beggar.
Bai Xi looked at him and said, "My fiancé?"
Qin Mu was slightly stunned by this. He had thought Bai Xi would let him out or negotiate with him, asking how he planned to serve her. He hadn't expected her to ask about that terrifying man earlier.
As soon as he thought of Han Mo, his chest and abdomen ached fiercely, as if the spot where he had been kicked was still sensitive.
"Isn't it the man who was with you and Tong Yao earlier? The one who's very good at fighting! Xi'er, can we not talk about him? Let's talk about our own matters. Actually, I'm skilled in many things and have many tricks. As long as you're willing, I can definitely serve you well…"
As soon as he finished speaking, a fist landed directly on Qin Mu's face, making his already disheveled face even more unsightly. Blood trickled from his nose, and he yelped in fright.
Bai Xi was slightly stunned and looked at the person who had thrown the punch.
The person who had thrown the punch was none other than Bai Han. Bai Han still wore that elegant and gentle smile as he slowly retracted his fist. "Xiao Xi, let's go. Don't let this disgusting person pollute your ears."
Bai Xi had never seen Bai Han hit anyone before and looked at him with a hint of surprise.
But then again, Bai Han's mind had only been that of an eight-year-old child before. How could he think of hitting someone? When he was angry, he would just throw a tantrum or throw things.
Before she could think carefully, Bai Han pulled her away from the corridor of the interrogation room.
However, she hadn't asked for clarification, so she shook off Bai Han's hand and said seriously, "Brother, he just said I have a fiancé? What's going on? Who was he talking about?"
Bai Han smiled and said, "He also said I was your new lover just now."
Bai Xi frowned. "He misunderstood. He was just assuming things."
Bai Han smiled and said, "So if he could misunderstand me as your new lover, how could he not misunderstand someone beside you as your fiancé? Aren't these all assumptions?"
Bai Xi: "..."
Although she felt her brother's reasoning was a bit far-fetched, logically… it seemed to hold up.
Bai Han said seriously, "Xiao Xi, the doctor said your memory is still very confused. Remember not to force yourself to think, or it will damage your brain. If the damage becomes irreversible, I don't want to have to take care of a little fool at home every day!"
After speaking, he extended a finger and gently tapped Bai Xi's nose.
Bai Xi looked at Bai Han in front of her and sighed, "Okay, I understand."
Since she was still in the recovery phase, it was best to follow the doctor's advice.
After all, she felt that doctors were a gentle and enlightened profession.
But why did she suddenly feel this way?
She always felt like there was something she had to do, something urgent and pressing, but she could never recall what it was. Therefore, she didn't want to stop, but she didn't know where to go or what to do.
