The interrogation room was silent.
Tang Xi took out her notebook and placed it on the table. She calmly poured herself a glass of water before asking, "Name?"
"Li Se!"
"Gender?" Tang Xi continued to ask.
"Can't you tell?" Li Se was somewhat speechless, clearly finding Tang Xi’s questions deliberate.
"When I ask you something, just answer honestly!" Tang Xi said coldly.
"Male." Li Se sighed softly, realizing it was indeed a mistake to provoke a woman.
"Do you know what you did wrong?" Tang Xi asked again.
Li Se blinked his eyes, "Touching your leg?"
Tang Xi's face was covered in gloom. "It's good that you know what you did. Now, go in and stay for a while!"
"Officer Tang, you can't just falsely accuse an innocent person. You made the first move just now, and besides, is there any part of your body I haven't seen?" Li Se looked as if he had nothing to lose.
Just then, the interrogation room door opened, and a police officer walked in. As he was about to say something, he overheard Li Se's words, and his entire body froze. His eyes widened as he looked at Tang Xi, then at Li Se. After a moment, he hastily said, "I didn't hear anything. I have something else to do, so I'm leaving..."
With that, he quickly closed the interrogation room door.
Well, it was likely the entire police station would know about this soon. Tang Xi's beautiful face turned ashen. She slowly stood up, pulled a handgun from her pants, and placed it heavily on the table, clearly intending to intimidate Li Se. She said, "You'd better not resist, or you'll regret it."
"Officer Tang, I'm a law-abiding citizen..." Li Se feigned innocence.
"Heh, many wrongdoers say the same thing," Tang Xi sneered. As she spoke, she walked up to Li Se, lifted her left leg, and kicked towards his face.
Li Se swiftly dodged his head. Her elegant foot swept past his face, and he could feel the sharp gust of wind. Giving Tang Xi no chance to attack again, he quickly reached out, accurately grabbed her ankle, and pulled her arm back. With a yelp, Tang Xi crashed into his embrace.
Warm and soft in his arms, Li Se's other hand was also on a soft, yielding spot. The size and elasticity were simply unparalleled.
"Where are you touching?" Tang Xi exclaimed angrily.
"Officer Tang, I can't help it. You made the first move this time," Li Se said innocently, yet clearly enjoying the sensation.
"You..." Tang Xi was about to explode, reaching for the handgun nearby, but she couldn't get it.
*Creak!*
At that very moment, the interrogation room door opened again. The same police officer walked in and said, "Oh right, Officer Tang, the person you asked us to apprehend has been caught. Come over..."
His words stopped abruptly. The officer froze in disbelief again, then retreated once more, diligently closing the interrogation room door.
"Let me go!" Tang Xi yelled.
Li Se reluctantly released her. This fierce woman didn't attack again this time because she knew she was no match for Li Se. She thought her display of the handgun would make him behave, but it had no effect whatsoever.
"Officer Tang, if there's nothing else, may I leave?" Li Se really didn't want to stay any longer.
"Get lost!" Tang Xi roared.
Just as Li Se was about to make a swift exit, Tang Xi called out again, "Do you remember our agreement?"
"What agreement?" Li Se looked puzzled.
"You said you would help me three times," Tang Xi said.
Li Se grunted, scratching his head. "What, do you need my help now?"
"Not yet, but soon," Tang Xi replied.
"Alright, when you need it, I'll be there," Li Se nodded.
Coincidentally, the same interrogation officer was still at the door. Hearing Li Se's words, he started to overthink again. "When you need it?" What kind of need was he referring to?
As Li Se walked out of the police station, everyone he passed gave him strange looks. He smiled slightly and waved to the officers, saying, "While I'm away, please take good care of Xixi."
"It's our duty," an older officer nodded.
"Li Se!" Tang Xi's furious voice came from behind. This damned scoundrel, wasn't he just making everyone misunderstand? Well, even if they were already misunderstanding, with Li Se's words, she would never be able to clear her name, even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
Li Se dared not linger and quickly fled. Once outside, he let out a sigh of relief. He had been tormented by Tang Xi for several hours. He thought to himself that the old saying was true: only women and petty people are difficult to deal with. One really shouldn't offend women; this Tang Xi was simply too terrifying.
He didn't go to the clinic but drove directly to Yunmeng Company. In the meantime, the advertisement had been filmed, and under its promotion, the beauty cream had reached a new height. Countless people now knew about the beauty cream, and companies seeking cooperation were numerous. However, Yunmeng Company’s priority was still with companies that had previously collaborated with them.
But as Li Se arrived at Yunmeng Company, he encountered an unexpected person: Ren Yunfei.
"I need to see your chairman. I am Ren Yunfei, Director of Ren Corporation," Ren Yunfei introduced himself to the receptionist.
The receptionist immediately called Xia Bingyun, who shortly thereafter instructed Ren Yunfei to proceed to her office.
As Ren Yunfei stepped into the elevator, Li Se also followed. He frowned, "It's you!"
"Oh, your injury healed so quickly?" Li Se asked with a half-smile.
Ren Yunfei's eyes were sharp. "Li Se, aren't you a doctor? What, are you working at Yunmeng Company? Heh, if Weiwei knew you were deceiving her, what do you think would happen?"
Without waiting for Li Se to speak, Ren Yunfei continued, "Working at this company, your position probably isn't very high, right? Your salary is at most seven or eight thousand. How about this: I'll give you a million yuan, and you leave Weiwei. What do you say?"
Ren Yunfei had poached many people before, and their boyfriends had never voiced any complaints. It was simple: he just threw money at them. Many times, a few tens of thousands of yuan would suffice. However, Qiao Weiwei's status was different, and a million yuan was considered value for money. He couldn't believe Li Se wouldn't be tempted.
"Idiot!" Li Se replied with two words.
Ren Yunfei was taken aback. He clearly hadn't expected Li Se to dare speak to him like that, and he became somewhat angered. "What do you mean? Do you think a million yuan is too little? Or do you think by being with Weiwei, you can inherit the Qiao family's assets? You're thinking too much. You'd better take the million yuan and leave now, or in the end, you won't get anything, only lose everything. I advise you not to make the wrong choice."
