Sun Lili's throat was filled with low growls as she frantically tried to break free from Bai Xi's elite guards. This sudden turn of events had caught everyone off guard. She managed to break free and rushed towards Bai Xi.
The two men in black close-fitting outfits were startled, "Eldest Miss!"
"..."
Bai Xi stood steady, her eyes filled with composure as she watched the person rushing at her like a madwoman.
She truly didn't know why Sun Lili had gone mad mid-sentence, but in her eyes, it made no difference. Dealing with her would only take a flick of her finger.
Thinking this, Bai Xi's eyes turned slightly cold.
Just as the frenzied Sun Lili reached Bai Xi, seemingly about to attack, things took a dramatic turn at that very instant... Sun Lili suddenly knelt down less than a meter away from her and began to kowtow heavily.
Once, twice, thrice... She didn't stop until her forehead was covered in blood, as if Bai Xi were a god and she the most devout believer, repenting her sins.
The men in black close-fitting outfits were slightly stunned, their faces blank. "Is the Eldest Miss's deterrent power already this strong? Without lifting a finger or saying a word, she can make her enemies genuinely submit?"
Another replied with a wry smile, "Instead of thinking about these things, why don't you consider how the Eldest Miss will punish us for not holding onto her tightly just now!"
The man in black close-fitting outfits glanced at Bai Xi standing there and couldn't help but shiver. "..."
Bai Xi was also somewhat surprised by the astonishing turn of events.
After all, Sun Lili had been smugly threatening her a moment ago, and the next moment she was kneeling on the ground, begging for forgiveness. She had never considered Sun Lili's so-called deterrent power, so how could she have intended to intimidate her?
This matter was extremely bizarre.
She subconsciously looked at Han Mo, who was lying on the bed. Han Mo's expression was normal, lying quietly on the bed, his hands and feet still bound. Beneath his metallic eyes were a pair of clear, innocent eyes.
Seeing Bai Xi look at him, Han Mo said in a hoarse voice, "Do you... need me to help bandage your wounds?"
Bai Xi frowned.
Bandage wounds? For Sun Lili?
Was this man being excessively kind, even thinking of bandaging the wounds of the woman who had just tried to abduct her and force her to comply?
Bai Xi thought about it seriously and suddenly felt that this scene was familiar.
Indeed, after all, he had saved a doctor who had tried to bully him at the hospital before.
And she suspected this man of having some kind of strange power? Was her brain malfunctioning?
Bai Xi ignored Han Mo and said calmly to the two men in black close-fitting outfits standing not far away, "Tie her up and throw her into the Dark Department. Don't let her die easily!"
It was time to settle accounts with the Sun family, and Sun Lili was the perfect bait, saving trouble and effort.
The two men in black close-fitting outfits immediately reacted and rushed forward to grab Sun Lili from the ground.
One held her head down so she couldn't raise it to harm herself further. The other held her arms behind her back and tied them.
One bound her upper body, the other lifted her lower body. They looked straight ahead, their eyes focused on their noses, not daring to look at Sun Lili's unsightly attire. They dragged her away expressionlessly, as if carrying a pig struggling before slaughter.
After the two left, only Bai Xi and Han Mo remained in the dimly lit room.
Bai Xi looked at Han Mo, who was still tied to the bed. Han Mo was also looking at her. He said in a low voice, "Eldest Miss, could you untie me first?"
Bai Xi raised her eyebrows and walked directly to Sun Lili's large bed.
The bed was large and round, clearly custom-designed.
The bed was also extremely soft. Stepping on it was like stepping on a cloud of cotton, giving one the illusion of sinking into it instantly.
It had to be said that Sun Lili really knew how to enjoy herself, and her indulgences were quite perverse.
Bai Xi walked to Han Mo's side and saw that the leather belt binding his wrist had a password lock. To unlock it, a password was required. She directly squatted down and pulled out a thin dagger she kept on the side of her right calf.
With a swift movement, the dagger fell, easily cutting through the two seemingly sturdy leather belts.
"Thank you, Eldest Miss."
Han Mo was freed and said in a low voice, "Thank you." He gently moved his wrists. The marks left by the restraints were quite obvious, and in some places, the skin was broken.
Seeing this, Bai Xi casually took out a pack of band-aids from her pocket, tossed it beside him, and said lightly, "If you repay resentment with kindness, how will you repay kindness?"
She truly couldn't understand why Han Mo would want to bandage Sun Lili's wounds. While the previous Dr. Yuan had only been verbally disrespectful to him, Sun Lili had caused him tangible harm.
She had only heard of saints before; what category did Han Mo belong to? Saintly father?
She was not one to meddle in others' affairs, but this man... she was a little worried. She was afraid that one day someone would sell him out, and he would still help them count the money. Hence, she was meddling by saying this.
After speaking, she got up to leave.
But the person behind her suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
As they were on Sun Lili's bed, which was astonishingly large and soft, Bai Xi had to squat down to cut Han Mo's leather belts when she got on it. With a tug from Han Mo, she was pulled directly towards him.
Bai Xi had spent six years in the Dark Department, constantly under mental strain. The moment Han Mo pulled her down, she instinctively turned in a position most advantageous for combat, her dagger immediately thrusting forward...
The instant she saw the person in front of her clearly, she slightly turned her wrist, diverting the dagger from its original trajectory and thrusting it in another direction.
The dagger, thus, pierced the soft bed just less than a centimeter from the right side of Han Mo's cheek!
The soft, large bed was instantly pierced with a large hole, and countless special material fluffs, which Bai Xi didn't quite understand, gushed out from it, like a sudden snowstorm between the two of them.
Bai Xi was above, Han Mo below, with a dagger stuck next to Han Mo's face, and white fluffs flying everywhere. The scene was somewhat dangerous, yet inexplicably alluring. "..."
