Cui Jiaying was gasping after she finished saying her piece and coughed quite badly.
Bai Muchuan didn’t want her to get agitated and didn’t talk about her son anymore.
Fine, even though you didn’t have confidence in the police, you should know that only by cooperating with the police, you’ll have a way out…
Cui Jiaying looked at the ceiling indifferently and sneered a few times without saying a word.
Bai Muchuan continued,
Operation Heaven’s Wrath, you are one of the executors…
Hurhur, hurhurhurhur.
Cui Jiaying laughed and paused to catch a breath.
I won’t tell you anything. Don’t bother to waste time on me.
Why must you go against the police?
If Operation Heaven’s Wrath failed, they will kill my son.
…
Cui Jiaying’s eyes were blank and listless.
Her words were similar to her faith which were engraved on her heart.
Even if it meant death for her, she wouldn’t say a word.
Bai Muchuan stood there quietly for a moment before turning to nod his head at the doctor and left the ward.
…
The media reported that the hospital fire did not cause any casualties due to the timely arrival of the firefighters and the quick response of the hospital personnel where they quickly evacuated the patients out of the hospital. The cause of the fire was still under investigation. This incident had drawn a lot of public attention. There were even netizens who linked the incident to the ‘zombie’ case as they felt that it was similar to a ‘scare’ tactic, just like the ‘zombie’ case.
That day was three days before the Lunar New Year.
When Xiang Wan got hold of all these news, she was at home.
Fang Yuanyuan had taken a flight back to Jin City early in the morning.
The sky was already dark.
And she was alone at home.
She did not know what exactly happened at the hospital. She had been sitting inside her room for a long time and wrote some of her story plot. Then she tried to analyze the people involved in this case. This was the first case ever since she got to know Bai Muchuan, that all the victims had no social relations with the actual perpetrator.
Heaven’s Wrath.
The wrath of heaven.
Who are the angry people?
she thought.
And who are the people that they wanted to punish in this Operation Heaven’s Wrath?
This was a very crucial question.
Xiang Wan placed a hand on her face to think for a moment and actually felt a little drowsy. She got up from the chair and wanted to go to the balcony to enjoy the night breeze and also to clear her head.
When she walked out of the bedroom, she noticed Bai Muchuan’s briefcase was on the sofa…
He’s back?
she thought.
And he actually didn’t let her know.
Xiang Wan’s eyebrows turned downwards a little. She looked around the house and walked to the toilet.
The toilet near the living room was a very big one with a wet and dry area separated by a glass partition. Bai Muchuan was standing before the washstand in the toilet and was looking at the mirror. He was looking at himself in the mirror and seemed to be deep in thoughts… Until Xiang Wan’s face showed up in the mirror.
He seemed a little startled as he saw the bright and beautiful pair of eyes in the mirror.
Why are you looking at me like this?
Things are not moving smoothly?
Xiang Wan walked up slowly to him and hugged him from behind.
Mm.
Bai Muchuan did not move but he put a hand on hers.
We can give up Cui Jiaying already.
Why?
She won’t talk.
He told Xiang Wan what happened at the hospital.
They had it all planned out that she wouldn’t be able to say anything.
Not necessarily.
Xiang Wan said seriously,
It’s not definite that she wouldn’t talk.
A woman would keep her mouth shut for a child.
That’s right!
Xiang Wan agreed and moved beside him. She looked at his face with a smile.
Her child is her weakness but also her armor at the same time. Her child could be the reason that she would keep her mouth shut as well as being the key to getting her to talk!
Bai Muchuan’s eyes lit up.
He looked at Xiang Wan in the mirror.
Her eyes were glimmering and her eyebrows were slightly raised with a gleam of confidence.
Undoubtedly, Xiang Wan was the charming type of woman.
As long as we got the right key, there is no lock that couldn’t be opened.
Bai Muchuan frowned for a moment, he held her hand and pulled her closer. His stiff expression seemed to relax a little and he even showed a smile.
My Little Xiang Wan, you’re getting really sly. Tell me, what wicked idea have you come up with?
Hey, it’s not a wicked idea. Any idea that is for the good of the people is an invaluable advice…
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Bai Muchuan laughed and pinched her nose gently. His earlier tense and gloomy face was replaced with a livelier and relaxed expression as if he didn’t know how he could dote on her. Then he gave a peck on her lips.
Mm, I’ve given you the seal of approval, words that come from your mouth will certainly be invaluable advice.
…
Seal of approval? On the mouth?
Xiang Wan rolled her eyes.
Geez!
Bai Muchuan couldn’t wait to hear her out.
Quick! Tell me, how are we going to find that key?
The best key is,
explained Xiang Wan,
of course, her son. Based on what she had said, the chances of locating and saving her son are too small… So, we should only try to find the master key.
Bai Muchuan raised his eyebrows.
Master key?
Xiang Wan blinked at him.
In order to get her to talk, we need to lie!
Lie?
What if her son’s dead? Surely she would want to avenge her son?
…
Bai Muchuan turned grim in an instant.
As the police, we can’t do that.
You can’t but I can!
Xiang Wan smiled.
I’m not the police. Moreover…
Her expression seemed slightly down.
To be frank, from what she had told you, chances are, her son should have been dead long ago.
Why?
She did not manage to see him once. She couldn’t even hear his voice. This is really abnormal. Moreover, her kid was so young then, do you really think the Dark Clan would be so nice to help find a nanny to take care of that young kid? You have to know that although kids are the most powerful tool to threaten a mom, taking care of a kid is also the most troublesome hot potato one could lay their hands on. Especially when the kid is still so young and knows nothing…
Bai Muchuan nodded his head.
So what do you intend to do?
I’ll let the Dark Clan know that Cui Jiaying wanted to see her son… Otherwise, she would expose all that she knows!
How are you going to do that?
The same method that we use to tell them that Cui Jiaying has woken up.
Through ‘Murder The Dream Guy’?
From this ‘arson’ incident, she could confirm that the Dark Clan did read her novel,
Murder The Dream Guy
.
Bai Muchuan’s eyebrows were closely knitted.
After a long silence, he managed to calm down.
Fine.
Xiang Wan looked at him through his mirror reflection and smiled.
Bai Muchuan also looked at the mirror where their line of sight met each other…
And sparks were sent flying.
He suddenly laughed and carried her up by her waist.
Hey! What are you doing?
… What do you think?
Xiang Wan was startled by the look in his eyes.
No putting on credit. You haven’t updated your novel.
I’m worried that too many words would tire my beauty out. We should take it slowly.
…
Too many words would tire my beauty out? What is he talking about?
thought Xiang Wan indignantly.
Tsk!
Xiang Wan snorted angrily.
The more words there are, the merrier! I’m not afraid at all!
It’s good that you’re not afraid.
Bai Muchuan carried her to the bathroom in their bedroom and placed her on top of the washstand. Then he knocked her head.
I’ll give you more, so you could digest all in one go!
Xiang Wan stared at him with her eyes wide-opened.
Really?
Really!
Wah! I’m going to die of bliss…
She had automatically thought that he meant the number of words and chapters and was so elated that she jumped onto Bai Muchuan’s back and hang onto him like a monkey.
So when are you going to write? Tonight? Hmm, something’s not right…
She finally realized the location that she was brought to as she was too exhilarated earlier.
Why did you come here when you wanted to write your chapter?
