"Tsk, coward! Even the girls aren’t scared, and you don’t even dare to look."
Wei Xiaosu pouted her lips and then blinked her eyes curiously at Ye Xuan, asking, "Brother Xuan, don’t you love to peep? Why aren’t you looking!"
Ye Xuan broke into a sweat!
What does it mean ’I love to peep’? The way she said it, it’s as if I’m some kind of pervert.
Ye Xuan cleared his throat and said seriously, "Little Susu, what if I did peep at you and you insisted I take responsibility for you?"
"Brother Xuan, where is your mind going? I won’t cling to you, nor will I make you take responsibility for me." Wei Xiaosu said in a saucy tone.
Hearing her assurance, Ye Xuan suddenly felt a stir, his eyeballs sneakily swept across her lower body, and he smacked his lips, saying:
"Wow! It’s pink underwear with lace trim."
Who would have thought this little girl had such a flirty side? Hehehe...
A hint of cunning flashed in Wei Xiaosu’s eyes as she suddenly grabbed Ye Xuan’s arm, pretending to be angry, she said, "Oh! Brother Xuan, you really did peep there, I’ve been seen by you; how am I supposed to face people now? No way! You have to take responsibility for me, you have to marry me."
Ye Xuan’s face was covered in black lines, and a myriad of cursing horses galloped through his mind.
This little girl really was setting a trap for me!
He rolled his eyes and poked Wei Xiaosu’s little head with his finger, saying annoyed, "You little girl, what do you know about responsibility? And wanting me to marry you even though you know I don’t like cradle-snatching! I’m not interested in girls who are too young."
"Who says I’m young? I’m not that small, look!"
Wei Xiaosu proudly puffed up her small chest, indicating a certain area wasn’t.
"Little Susu, stop making trouble, I have serious business to deal with!"
Although he was secretly pleased, he still said sternly on the surface.
"Brother Xuan, you are so heartless! You think of me when you need help but forget me as soon as you’re done! Not even a thank you, what kind of person does that?"
Wei Xiaosu huffed lightly, her face full of melancholy as she glanced at Ye Xuan, sporting the expression of a deeply wronged woman.
Sensing her gaze, Ye Xuan felt a shiver down his spine. This little girl wouldn’t really try to cling to him, would she?
"Alright, alright! I thank you, thank you Susu for helping me... uh!"
After saying this, Ye Xuan himself realized that it sounded a bit improper and felt a bit awkward.
"Pah! A dog can’t spit out ivory..."
Wei Xiaosu spat lightly, her cheeks slightly blushing.
"I don’t care! Just saying it isn’t enough; if you really want to thank me, you should give me a gift! Remember, it should be a Qixi Festival gift."
Slyness flickered in her eyes as Wei Xiaosu made her demand.
"Little Susu, we’re not a couple, why should I give you a Qixi Festival gift?" Ye Xuan said, feeling morose.
"Who says you can’t give gifts if we’re not a couple? If you don’t agree, I’ll tell your wife about you peeping at me." Wei Xiaosu smiled cunningly.
Ye Xuan had a look of having slept with the dogs.
It turns out this little girl had it planned all along for me to peep, just waiting for this moment to hold it over me!
Ye Xuan gritted his teeth and said, then waved his hand, "Let’s talk about this later, let’s deal with the matter at hand first."
After finishing speaking, he simply stopped talking to her, fearing that he might inadvertently get caught up in her schemes again.
At the same time, a group of people had already entered Jade Pearl Nightclub, heading straight for the main hall!
The sudden intrusion of so many police officers made it difficult not to attract attention.
Soon, a middle-aged man around the age of forty quickly approached; upon seeing that Bai Wenrou was leading the team, his expression immediately changed.
This middle-aged man, named An Zhijie, was the manager of the Mingzhu Hall at Jade Pearl Nightclub and one of Xie Wending’s most trusted subordinates!
"Officers, why have you come again?"
An Zhijie’s expression quickly turned stern, and he spoke in a displeased tone.
"We suspect that there are drugs hidden here and must conduct another search," said Bai Wenrou straightforwardly.
"Hehe, drugs? Officers, didn’t you already search yesterday and find nothing?"
An Zhijie scoffed coldly, speaking deliberately, "I don’t know where you heard such rumors! We at Jade Pearl Nightclub conduct legitimate business and never engage in illegal activities. Your constant inspections really disrupt our business. If you keep coming , we won’t be able to open our doors anymore, and you’ll eventually run us into the ground. Can the police just falsely accuse people ?"
Bai Wenrou gave him a look and said indifferently, "Whether it’s a rumor or not, we’ll know once we’ve searched! Our police do not randomly accuse innocent people, but neither will we let a guilty person go."
"Of course! As long as you cooperate with the investigation, we won’t interfere with your normal operations. Once we confirm your innocence, we’ll no longer disturb you in the future!"
An Zhijie’s eyes flickered slightly before he responded, "Very well, I trust Officer Bai’s integrity. I’ll cooperate wherever you want to investigate."
He seemed to have compromised, but as he finished speaking, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth; he was not afraid of their search at all.
After all, only the members here knew about the existence of Jade Hall.
"Take me to Jade Hall," said Bai Wenrou.
An Zhijie was shocked, not expecting this female officer to know about Jade Hall!
But he wasn’t worried, Brother Dong had already made preparations for this; the items were hidden very cleverly, and even if the police turned the place upside down, they would find nothing.
"Hehe, please follow me."
An Zhijie smiled slightly and led the way to Jade Hall.
They took the elevator to the third basement level, and under Bai Wenrou’s instructions, the group headed straight for Xie Wending’s luxurious private room.
Soon, the group reached the door of the private room and stopped in their tracks, as the door was already locked, clearly unoccupied!
"Open the door," commanded Bai Wenrou.
"Sorry, Officer Bai, but I can’t open this door! This is our boss’s private office, and only the boss has the key."
An Zhijie seemed to be prepared and responded with a light smile.
"Then call your boss here to open it!" said Bai Wenrou.
"Officer, our boss is not here, and we do not know where he has gone," An Zhijie said languidly.
"Surely you have his phone number? Call him and ask him to come and open the door!"
"I’m also not clear about our boss’s cell number."
"He’s the boss, and you don’t have his cell number?"
"I’m just working for the boss; do I really need to memorize his cell number?"
An Zhijie spread his hands, wearing an expression of innocence.
"Hmph, it seems to me you clearly don’t want to open the door!"
Bai Wenrou’s tone grew colder, having sensed something was amiss; the other party was stalling and clearly had something to hide.
"No need to bother; I can open this door."
At that moment, Ye Xuan interjected and kicked toward the private room door.
