Bai Lixin carried Miss Jia’er back to the room and placed her in the wheelchair.

The attendants who followed them silently waited outside the room, showing no intention of disturbing them.

As they passed Mrs. Nick’s room, Bai Lixin glanced inside. The blood on the floor had dried up, and the black-red stain formed a gruesome mark on the floor.

Mrs. Nick’s room was in the shade, and after a day had passed, there was no foul smell inside.

After putting Jia’er in the wheelchair, Bai Lixin was about to leave when someone suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Bai Lixin’s body swayed unsteadily, and he staggered slightly. He instinctively held onto the wheelchair’s armrest for support.

The veiled face was suddenly close, just inches away.

“Don’t meddle in this,” Jia’er held Bai Lixin’s wrist and whispered in his ear, “No one can escape here, but I can save you as long as you beg me, how about that? It’s a very advantageous deal, isn’t it?”

While speaking, Jia’er’s hand gently brushed against the back of Bai Lixin’s neck. When her fingertips touched a certain spot, there was a tingling sensation.

The pupils hidden beneath the black veil flickered slightly. Jia’er retracted her finger and asked in a low voice, “Whom did you meet?”

Bai Lixin didn’t hide anything and recounted the incident of encountering the detective with white hair and white clothes last night. In the end, he added, “But it’s strange, I haven’t seen the detective since I woke up this morning.”

Jia’er silently narrowed her eyes, her gaze finally resting on his lips.

Her eyes suddenly darkened, and she asked with a sinister tone, “Why are your lips swollen like that?”

Could it be from a kiss?

Under her scrutiny, the young man’s cheeks flushed slightly, but he ultimately remained silent.

With a snap, Jia’er’s folding fan broke into two pieces in her hand.

Through the veil, she looked up at the young man with a gloomy expression, but he merely gazed back at her with an innocent and clear look, as pure as a pristine lake.

Jia’er: “…”

It’s not the young man’s fault.

How could such a pure and innocent soul as his be responsible?

It must be that hypocritical angel, feigning innocence and leading the innocent young man astray.

Damn angels, hypocritical as ever!

Jia’er took a deep breath and, once again, spoke with her customary elegance and gentleness, “While the roses in the rose garden are undoubtedly beautiful and fragrant, it’s precisely because of their fragrance that they attract many pests.”

“As the gardener of the rose garden, naturally, I have means to eliminate those pests.”

While speaking, Jia’er’s fingers quietly brushed against the back of Bai Lixin’s neck. Her hand hovered above his neck, and her fingers lightly tapped there, revealing two patterns on Bai Lixin’s neck.

One was the imprint of a black chain, and the other was the imprint of a pair of white wings.

The wings wanted to envelop the chain, and the chain wanted to entwine around the wings. The two imprints seemed to come alive, vigorously dancing on Bai Lixin’s nape, emitting electric currents and blue-purple sparks that crackled.

As the sparks landed on Jia’er’s gloved fingertips, a thin white smoke immediately rose.

Both Jia’er and Bai Lixin frowned simultaneously.

Seeing Bai Lixin’s pained expression, Jia’er placed another black imprint next to the existing imprints. The two black imprints wrapped around the white wings from left and right, finally calming them down, keeping them still.

Jia’er secretly exhaled a breath, and an invisible layer of sweat formed on her forehead.

This pest was somewhat capable.

After completing all of this, Jia’er withdrew her fingers from Bai Lixin’s nape and used her usual seductive voice to ask, “Have you made up your mind?”

Bai Lixin only felt as if two mosquitoes were fighting on his nape just now.

Upon hearing Jia’er’s question, he paused for a moment, then quickly realized that she was asking whether he wanted to make a deal, to protect himself as the content of the transaction.

“Not for now,” Bai Lixin broke free from Jia’er’s grasp, rubbing his nape as he stood up. “Thank you for your concern, Miss Jia’er, but as a member of the Emil family, how can I betray my lord for the sake of my own life during the most dangerous time? It’s immoral.”

Old gong, we haven’t finished the important matters yet. How can you only think about love? What a love brain!

Jia’er silently stared at Bai Lixin for three seconds. “This is your second time rejecting me. You may leave now.”

In the live broadcast room.

[Voiceover: There’s a limit to giving second chances. I absolutely won’t let you off the hook the third time!]

[Although the two big bosses have never met, they have already fought several rounds with Bai Lixin’s body.]

[??? Brother, your words are very ambiguous.]

[Maybe it’s not ambiguity but a prophecy. I believe it will come true in the near future.]

[Wow, so thrilling! By the way, should both angels and demons be able to fly?]

[2333.]

[They should be able to fly, and then?]

[… And then… soaring ninety thousand miles, achieving perfection under the moonlight.]

[… Brother, be normal. That sounds a bit creepy. Let’s just be regular people. If they fly too high, they’ll be seen.]

[Uh, yeah, you’re right. Well then, I’ll just let my imagination run wild for a moment. Sorry.]

————————

After leaving Jia’er’s room, Bai Lixin returned to his own room with the attendant he had originally selected.

As he opened the door, the attendant respectfully stood at the entrance.

Bai Lixin: “I’m sorry to bother you, please come inside. I have something to ask for your advice.”

The attendant hesitated once again, pausing for a moment, but eventually entered the room under Bai Lixin’s urging.

After closing the door, Bai Lixin changed into a pair of slippers and walked inside while casually saying to the attendant, “Come in, no need to change shoes. Feel free to sit, treat this place as your own room.”
