Bai Qianmo looked at Bai Kangyan.

What do you want to do?

"If there's really no other way, I have no choice but to take this step. Qianmo, your ten percent of the shares..."

Bai Qianmo was silent for a moment: "Giving you my 10% is no problem, and it should be fine with Bai Luoyu as well. The key is how you're going to get the remaining 10%."

Bai Luoyu followed up, saying, "Dad, right now Qianmo and I can take out our shares at any time. The key is Bai Xiruo's 10% share. Given her hatred for the Bai family, it might be a bit difficult to get that 10% from her."

Bai Kangyan said, "I'll go see her right now. After all, we raised her for twenty years. At this critical moment, as long as she's willing to help, even if she makes unreasonable demands, I will definitely agree to them as long as it's within my power."

Bai Qianmo felt that Bai Kangyan still harbored a sliver of hope for Bai Xiruo.

It's just a pity that the ending may not be as he expected.

"I'll go with you."

Bai Kangyan looked at Bai Qianmo: "Qianmo, you shouldn't go. The person she hates the most is you. I'm afraid she might make demands that are detrimental to you later."

Bai Qianmo curled her lips, unconvinced: "Even if I don't go, she'll bring it up anyway. Let's not waste our time and go."

After thinking about it carefully, Bai Kangyan felt that what Qianmo said made sense.

He then agreed to take Bai Qianmo to the police station where Bai Xiruo was being held.

now

Bai Xiruo has been temporarily detained for attempted murder, pending the court's final verdict.

Because it houses criminal offenders, the living quarters here are dark and damp. Ten women, all of whom are murderers, live in one ward.

Two of them were prisoners sentenced to death and were about to be executed by firing squad.

In this environment, the ugliest side of human nature is exposed without any concealment.

Although it's a women's prison, the power struggles and infighting are just as intense as those in men's prisons.

Because she was a newcomer, she was often bullied by her roommates.

Those few days felt like an eternity to her.

The cell door was opened, and a prison guard walked in.

"Bai Xiruo, a family member is visiting."

Bai Xiruo, who had been sitting with her arms wrapped around her knees and staring blankly at a small window on the roof, suddenly had a glimmer of light flash in her lifeless gray eyes when she heard the words "family visits".

I followed the prison guard out of the cell and into the visiting room.

Upon seeing the two women sitting across the glass, the hopeful look in their eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Sir, I don't know these two people."

"Don't you recognize them? They clearly stated your date of birth and home address. Are you sure you don't recognize them?" the prison guard asked coldly, staring at her.

The moment Zhang Cuiyan saw Bai Xiruo, tears streamed down her face. She picked up the intercom and spoke emotionally.

"Xi Ruo, I am your mother, I am your biological mother."

Zhang Cuiyan assumed that Bai Xiruo had never met her before, which was why she said she didn't know her.

But when Bai Xiruo heard Zhang Cuiyan's words, her eyes showed not only indifference but also deep hatred.

How could she not recognize this woman? The woman who brought her shame and cheap blood.

The moment she saw her, she recognized her. Although they had never met, she had seen Zhang Cuiyan's video recording at Grandpa Bai's place.

That woman, who swore constantly and dressed in a dowdy manner, was etched into her memory at first glance.

Countless nights when I think of her, all I feel is endless pain.

"She's your mother, isn't she? What deep-seated hatred could there be between a mother and daughter? I think you've gone down this wrong path because you didn't listen to your mother, right?" The prison guard lectured Bai Xiruo.

Bai Xiruo ignored him and turned to leave, but was stopped by a female prison guard who hadn't spoken.

"I'll just have a few words with my family when they visit. It might not be so easy to see them again in the future."

"Officer, please don't make things difficult for her. I'm fine, Xi Ruo. If you don't want to see me, I won't force you. I just want to see if you're doing well."

Bai Xiruo turned her back to Zhang Cuiyan and Bai Xinrou, remaining silent.

But they didn't leave immediately.

Bai Xinrou was already impatient on her way here. She had originally arranged to do a live stream with Orange Video today, and they had promised to pay them a certain amount of money.

As a result, Zhang Cuiyan insisted on visiting the prison, which completely ruined her chance to appear on screen.

When he came to visit his sister, she was indifferent and unresponsive, which made him release all the anger he had been holding in all day.

"Bai Xiruo, do you still think of yourself as the beloved young lady of the Bai family? Heh, you're already here, what are you putting on airs for? You're a convicted prisoner, if it weren't for your mother's concern for you, do you think we would have come to see you?"

"Xinrou, shut up!" Zhang Cuiyan choked back tears as she kissed Bai Xinrou.

Bai Xinrou not only ignored Zhang Cuiyan's words, but also became even more hysterical.

"Am I wrong? What right does she have to act superior to us now? What gives her the right to look down on us? Let me tell you, Bai Xiruo, even if you don't want to acknowledge us, the blood flowing in your veins will always be ours, and Bai Qianmo is the true heiress of the Bai family!"

Bai Xiruo clenched her fists tightly and turned to look coldly at Bai Xinrou.

"Even if I have nothing, I don't need relatives like you. Don't come again, and I will never see you again."

Zhang Cuiyan stared at Bai Xiruo's retreating figure and couldn't help but cry.

"Xi Ruo, even if you refuse to acknowledge us, I will not abandon you. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to rescue you."

Bai Xiruo ignored Zhang Cuiyan and turned to leave.

Zhang Cuiyan and her daughter Bai Xinrou left the police station dejectedly.

But at the entrance of the police station, I saw two familiar people get out of a car.
