A whole afternoon.

Bai Xiaowei lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, with a conflict between her conscience and her conscience in her mind.

Next to the pillow was a small wooden gun and a small bag of white powder.

——These were all brought to her by Qiao Yuanzhi through the maid.

What Qiao Yuanzhi asked her to do was very simple. He asked her to find an opportunity to put the powder into Yuan Yihong's water.

According to the maid, the powder is non-toxic and can only make people sleep for three days and three nights.

Just in case, she was given a wooden gun for self-defense.

Bai Xiaowei was not sure whether this was a test from Yuan Yihong.

But on second thought, I don’t think so.

After all, she wanted to leave here, destroy all of Yuan Yihong's forces, and bring him to justice. This was something everyone knew.

If she didn't drug Yuan Yihong, would Yuan Yihong be kind enough to let her go?

Or, if she drugged Yuan Yihong, would Yuan Yihong hate her even more?

Anyway, her life is already in Yuan Yihong's hands, and her death will not be more miserable because of one more charge.

Bai Xiaowei's mind flashed back to the time when she first met Qiao Yuanzhi. He knelt down to apologize to Yuan Yihong, and when he stood up, there was a flash of dissatisfaction and frustration in his eyes.

That was the look of an ambitious person who was unwilling to be inferior to others.

In addition, Qiao Yuanzhi wanted to seek revenge on her, but Yuan Yihong deliberately stopped him. This would increase the rift between the two.

It is not surprising that Qiao Yuanzhi became disloyal because of this.

A glimmer of hope ignited in Bai Xiaowei's heart.

As long as this place is not an iron wall, she can always take advantage of the discord between Yuan Yihong and Qiao Yuanzhi and find a chance to escape.

She held the butterfly brooch in her hand, which Wenrui had given her when they were in County A.

Originally there was a faint light flickering on the butterfly's wings, but after arriving on the island, it became silent, as if it had really turned into an ordinary decoration.

The pearl earrings that Wen Rui gave her were taken off and placed on the desk because she was taking a nap at the time. When she received the text message from Inspector Qi, she left in a hurry and forgot to wear them.

At this moment, she could only hold the brooch tightly and imagine that Gu Wenrui was with her.

She asked Gu Wenrui softly in her heart: "Wenrui, do you think I should give Yuan Yihong drugs? Will Qiao Yuanzhi really keep his promise and let me go home?"

at the same time.

The man that Bai Xiaowei had been thinking about stared at the tablet screen with his eyes fixed. His usually elegant and handsome face was now covered with a cold, eerie and murderous look.

A pair of phoenix eyes burst out with a bloodthirsty and fierce light, which made people feel terrified at a glance.

"Don't...don't...go away...let me go...wuwuwu..."

The woman's miserable cry came from the screen. Her panicked and helpless look deeply hurt the man's heart.

His body also began to tremble uncontrollably, and every cell in his body was bitten by pain, piercing his heart and bones.

His Xiao Wei...

When did that brave woman, who was always calm and composed and never bent under pressure, ever show such a panicked and helpless expression, and when did she ever cry in such humiliation?

It's his incompetence, it's all his fault!

Watching several tall and burly foreign men stretching out their hands as big as palm-leaf fans, pushing her to the ground and tearing her clothes apart, Gu Wenrui wished she could get into the screen and die together with those who bullied her.

The video is short, so it ends here.

But you don’t have to think about what will happen next.

Gu Wenrui stood up with the help of the handrail and ordered: "Investigate the source of this email. No matter how far it takes, no matter what the cost, I will make Yuan Yihong pay with blood... Puff..."

A mouthful of blood spurted out, the tall man staggered, and quickly stood firm.

Gu Jiu's heart was trembling with pain. He went forward to support the young master, but he was pulled away by him.

The man waved his hand as if to assure himself: "Don't worry, I won't fall down before I find Xiaowei."

"Young Madam..." Gu Jiu wiped away the tears that covered his face and choked up, "She is blessed by God, she will be fine!"

Even a three-year-old child can't be fooled by this.

The bright smile of the little woman appeared in front of Gu Wenrui's eyes, and his heart, which was wrapped in ice, skipped a beat: "No matter where she is, whether she is alive or dead, I will take her home."

......

Dinner time.

Bai Xiaowei still hadn't made up her mind and was eating absent-mindedly.

"Not to your liking?"

Yuan Yihong put down his chopsticks, looked at the food he had only taken a few bites of, and asked with concern.

Bai Xiaowei's scattered thoughts returned to the center, she pursed her lips, and said with determination: "What do you want to do?"

Yuan Yihong raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't understand what she meant: "What do I want to do?"

"Yes," Bai Xiaowei looked directly into the man's eyes. "If you want revenge, then just kill me. I don't think I have done anything wrong to you. Even if I accused your father of a crime, I was just doing my job."

"Besides, your father was sentenced to suspended death penalty at the time. As far as I know, it has now been commuted to life imprisonment. If you behave well, you may get a reduced sentence. Although you have lost your personal freedom, your rights to eat and rest are guaranteed. The hatred between you and me is far from as deep as the hatred for your father's murder."

Yuan Yihong chuckled, picked up the napkin and elegantly wiped his thin lips, then made a gesture of invitation: "Continue."

Bai Xiaowei couldn't guess what he was thinking, so she could only continue, "If you're not seeking revenge against me, can you let me go?"

As she said this, her eyes sparkled.

Yuan Yihong asked with a smile: "Are you done?"

Bai Xiaowei thought about it for a moment, had nothing to add, and nodded.

Yuan Yihong suddenly reached out and hooked her chin.

Bai Xiaowei reacted and immediately leaned back to avoid it: "What are you doing?"

Yuan Yihong laughed softly: "Has anyone ever told you that you are so damn cute when you are serious about reasoning?"

Bai Xiaowei took a deep breath and held back. She couldn't get angry, otherwise the man would get even more excited.

Seeing that Bai Xiaowei wanted to be angry but didn't dare to, Yuan Yihong smiled happily.

Bai Xiaowei suppressed her annoyance and said in a gentle voice, "Can you please let me go? I don't know where this is, and I won't reveal your location even if I go back. As long as you are not caught, we will never see each other again, and I won't have the chance to accuse you in court."

She winked sincerely.

Yuan Yihong couldn't help laughing at her little appearance.

But he shook his head firmly: "Everything else can be discussed. I will satisfy you whatever you want, but don't even think about leaving here."

He went to great lengths and made many plans to bring her out of Beijing, and then sent her back. What was he trying to achieve?

The light in Bai Xiaowei's eyes went out, and she stared at Yuan Yihong blankly: "Why?"

Yuan Yihong was helpless: "How many times do I have to say it? I like you and want you to stay with me."

Bai Xiaowei shook her head: "You are not! You want to see me helpless and trembling every day. You enjoy the feeling of being in control of the cat playing with the mouse. You want to torture me."

Yuan Yihong sighed: "Xiaowei, you can't be so hypocritical."

"Like you said, we don't have a blood feud. My father is in prison, his life is safe, he just lost his personal freedom. Why is it that the same cannot happen to you?

I told you I love you a hundred times, but you didn't remember. I bullied you twice, but you remembered it.

Ask yourself, from the time you fell into my hands until now, have I deprived you of food and drink? Or have I endangered your life? Although you are a prisoner, have you suffered any physical pain?

After all, you may not have a little personal freedom, but compared to my father, your treatment is more than just a little bit better, right?

I also sent servants to you and ordered the kitchen to make delicious food for you in various ways. I even took care of the wild...child in your belly. I just need to serve you tea and water, and treat you like a little ancestor. Is this not acceptable?"

Bai Xiaowei immediately retorted: "Why are you comparing me to your father? He committed a crime and he deserved to lose his personal freedom. I..."

He swallowed the rest of the words under Yuan Yihong's intimidating gaze.

Just when the atmosphere between the two of them was getting a little awkward, Kongji walked in.

"Go to the study on the second floor."

Yuan Yihong gave an order, then turned and stared at Bai Xiaowei: "Except for leaving, I can satisfy your other requests."

After saying that, he stroked her soft long hair, feeling the cool and smooth touch of satin, and his mood inexplicably improved.

Bai Xiaowei was sitting alone at the dining table in a daze.

The panic in my heart was endless, and all I could think about was, she was going to stay here forever? !

Her child is going to be born here too? ! !

The string of reason suddenly broke.

She didn't know how long she had been sitting there. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a servant bringing coffee to the study. She called out to the servant, "Give it to me. I'll take it in."

The servant hesitated, but did not dare to refuse directly.

Anyone with eyes can see how doting Yuan Yihong is on Bai Xiaowei. How could a mere servant like him dare to offend her?

Bai Xiaowei said arrogantly, "What are you standing there for? Give it to me!"

The maid who had been following Bai Xiaowei frowned and scolded: "How dare you disobey Miss Bai's words? Do you want the master to come out and tell you in person?"

The servant shuddered and hurriedly handed the tray to Bai Xiaowei: "It's my fault for being blind. Miss Bai, please calm down, calm down!"

Bai Xiaowei carried the tray, walked to the corner of the second floor, and winked at the maid.

The maid understood and blocked the tray with her body.

Bai Xiaowei quickly took out the white powder and sprinkled it into one of the cups of coffee.

He quickly picked up the spoon and stirred it again.

Bai Xiaowei raised her eyes and looked at the maid: "I have done what I wanted to do. I hope Qiao Yuanzhi will not break his promise."

The maid lowered her head, hiding the contempt in her eyes, and said respectfully: "Miss Bai, don't be anxious. The matter is only half done."

Bai Xiaowei snorted: "Okay, then you follow closely and make sure you watch him drink it with your own eyes."
