In the Xiao Family.

Under the dim light, Xiao Rong just kept typing on his phone.

He sent so many messages but got no response.

Finally, the darkness outside reminded him that it was already late at night.

No matter how many messages he sent again, he would get no response at all.

Song Shuang should be sleeping with her...

Thinking of this, Xiao Rong grabbed his phone and lowered his head with depression.

Outside the door, someone was staggering in the corridor.

The footsteps on the ground sounded disordered.

Xiao Rong raised his head, and his eyes were sparkly in the darkness.

As Xiao You passed by the door of Xiao Rong's room, the door was opened, and then Xiao Rong appeared at the door.

He leaned on the door and was looking at her silently.

In the darkness, the dim light in the corridor made Xiao Rong's handsome face more nonchalant.

It was as cold as the moonlight in winter.

Xiao You was annoyed by Meng Yunxi's plan to set up Xiao Rong and Bai Shengsheng.

She drank a lot this night, so she was a little drunk.

She just wanted to sneak back to her room, but just as she passed by Xiao Rong's door, she was caught by her d*mn brother.

Xiao You squinted and ignored Xiao Rong.

She just wanted to keep moving forward.

However, she was so drunk that she couldn't walk steadily. As she lifted her foot, she staggered forward.

Xiao Rong reached out his head to help her.

Xiao You had planned to kill her d*mn brother many times. Now he even helped her to stand well. She felt as if her arm had been bitten by a viper, so she shrugged his arm off.

She cursed with disgust, "Keep away from me, you d*mn mute!"

Xiao Rong was confused by Xiao You's malicious curse.

He tried to talk to her with signs.

However, Xiao You was not that patient. She just said, "I can't understand what you're saying. Go back to your room. I don't want to see you!"

Xiao Rong got her meaning.

He didn't use signs anymore.

He reached out his head to stop Xiao You, and then took out his mobile phone.

Then it was the mechanical voice on the phone.

"Then let's talk."

Xiao You was frightened by the mechanical voice. She trembled all of a sudden because of fear.

Maybe she would be killed if Xiao Rong could really talk.

She was irritated. She snatched Xiao Rong's phone with anger and threw it on the ground.

It was such a big noise to throw the phone on the ground on such a quiet night.

Han Lu was waked up. She opened the door and asked, "What happened?"

Xiao You glared at Xiao Rong while she answered with her teeth gritted, "Nothing, mom. My phone dropped on the ground."

Han Lu looked at Xiao You and then Xiao Rong with a strange look.

She didn't want to get involved, so she closed the door and went back.

In their room, Xiao Chengye asked Han Lu, "What's the noise?"

"The servant carelessly smashed something."

Xiao Chengye closed his eyes, turned his body aside, and continued to sleep.

Han Lu showed a wicked smile as she thought of Xiao Rong and Xiao You's expressions in the corridor.

In the corridor, Xiao Rong bent down and picked up the phone.

Xiao You just staggered forward.

However, she couldn't leave here now.

She was stopped by Xiao Rong again, and was violently pulled into his room.

"What do you want?"

Xiao You was pushed to the ground. She asked Xiao Rong in anger.

Xiao Rong closed the door calmly, then typed on his phone, and showed Xiao You what he wanted to speak.

"I want to negotiate with you."

"What can I negotiate with a mute?"

Xiao You sneered, got up from the ground, and wanted to push Xiao Rong away.

However, she was stopped again by the familiar voice on Xiao Rong's phone.

"Don't you know that you used my people when you did so? What if they find out? I just get rid of this trouble and I don't want to be involved in another one!"

Xiao You was shocked. She asked in a hurry, "Where did you get the recording?"

Xiao You looked calm. He just shook the phone in his hand.

As Xiao You rushed over and wanted to snatch the phone, he lifted his hand.

Xiao You was irritated, roaring, "Give me the phone!"

Xiao Rong shook his head.

Xiao You gritted her teeth. She grabbed Xiao Rong's arm crazily and bit it fiercely.

It hurt so much that Xiao Rong couldn't help moaning in a harsh voice.

Xiao You took the opportunity to snatch the phone.

"D*mn mute, do you think you can threaten me with that? Do you think you can stay away from this matter with the recording? Never think about it!"

Xiao You deleted all the recordings on the phone with her trembling fingers.

Xiao Rong covered his arm that was bit by Xiao You. He frowned and stared at his sister, while he talked to her with signs, "There are copies."

Definitely, Xiao You also knew this. She put the phone into her pocket, and grabbed his collar, questioning, "Where are the copies? Give me all of them!"

Xiao Rong shook his head.

Obviously, he wouldn't give them to Xiao You.

Xiao You raised her hand and wanted to slap him on his face.

Just at this moment, Xiao Rong finally couldn't stand it. He pushed Xiao You's hand away.

Xiao You lost her balance and fell down again. She got up and still wanted to threaten Xiao You to give the recordings to her.

All of a sudden, Xiao Rong took the vase in his room.

It was a big vase. As long as he threw it on the ground, the noise would wake up all the family members.

Xiao Rong, as a mute, couldn't cry or roar to make noise.

But he could make a noise by smashing this vase.

She nodded, took a long breath, and pointed at him excitedly, "Good. You just want to threaten me, don't you?"

Xiao Rong was about to smash the vase.

Xiao You didn't dare to irritate him, so she gave in, "Okay! Fine! Let's talk!"

She had to give in.

Han Lu and the old guy would be waked up once Xiao Rong smashed the vase.

What if they came and found the recordings?

Then she would be doomed.

The old guy would know she was so stupid that she had almost offended the Bai family and the Song family at the same time.

She could no longer be the successor of the Xiao family if so.

Even the old guy wouldn't allow her to work in Xiao's Group.

Xiao Chengye was her father, so she knew much about him.

Her father liked smart persons.

And he hated stupid persons.

Now, she was the stupid one who had been too careless.

She would disappoint the old guy if the old guy knew the truth.

Since Xiao You gave in, Xiao Rong put down the vase on the ground.

...

Gu Baisheng was waked up by Qu Xiaobo's phone call in the early morning.

Besides Qu Xiaobo's voice, there were noises on the phone.

"Let's talk after we get in!"

"No! You are slandering me! All of you, the staff in the hotel!"

"Let's talk in the interrogation room! Go back to your interrogation rooms respectively!"

Gu Baisheng was confused by the voices.

Soon, the noises disappeared, and it was Qu Xiaobo's voice.

"Shengsheng, did you hear it?"

"What's going on?"

Gu Baisheng got up and wanted to move, but something occurred to her, so she didn't move and stayed in bed.

"The police asked Zhang Kai to the police station for a case about you. Do you know who the reporter was?"

"Who?"

"Xiao Rong! The reporter was Xiao Rong!"

Gu Baisheng was surprised.

"Xiao Rong? What was going on? He was injured, wasn't he."

As she asked this question nervously, Song Shuang happened to go out of the bathroom. He frowned as he heard Xiao Rong's name.

She lowered her voice in a hurry and didn't dare to look at Song Shuang. Then she asked Qu Xiaobo, "Tell me the details."

"Xiao Rong reported a case that someone was threatening him. The police followed the clues and found the staff of the Summer Hotel. The staff said it was Ms. Meng who had ordered them to do that. Besides, they said that it was still Ms. Meng who had drugged you and Xiao Rong before you went to the room there. She wanted to take photos of you to blackmail the Xiao family and the Song family!"

Gu Baisheng was amazed, "It's..."

"It's too weird, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's too weird..."

It was indeed too weird.

She certainly didn't want to blackmail someone.

If she wanted to blackmail someone, why didn't she only blackmail Xiao Rong, instead of Song Shuang?

Gu Baisheng glanced at Song Shuang with a strange look.

Song Shuang had just taken a shower. He caught her glance, so he walked over and turned on the hands free mode.

Qu Xiaobo's voice on the phone became clear.

"Ms. Meng is just Meng Yunxi, who has been arrested by the police. She claimed that she was innocent, but the police have the witness and evidence."

"What evidence?"

"Alprazolam and Valium. The staff of the hotel said the pills were all from Meng Yunxi. The police also went to investigate and found it was really Meng Yunxi who bought the pills in the hospital where she is working."

Gu Baisheng frowned.

Song Shuang looked at her as if he had not been surprised.

"She's not short of money, so why did she want to blackmail someone with that?"

Gu Baisheng was confused. She didn't think Meng Yunxi did this for money.

"We will know it after the interrogation."

Gu Baisheng nodded.

Then she asked Qu Xiaobo with worry, "How is Xiao Rong? Is he also in the police station?"

"He is..."

Beep...

Before Qu Xiaobo could answer, Song Shuang had hung up the phone.

Gu Baisheng was annoyed, "I just want to know his situation."

"It's time for you to go to work." Song Shuang looked at her and said coldly, as if he hadn't hung up her phone so imperiously, "It's snowing today. Let me drive you to the school."

Gu Baisheng frowned.

She stared at him for a while.

But she couldn't do anything, so she got up and wanted to go to the bathroom.

However, she didn't feel well as she moved.

Her waist... was so aching.
