Chapter 179 You're really capable.

The reason why Bai Xue has never been accepted by the Gu family is mainly because her mother was just a dancer in a brothel, and naturally, those noble families looked down on her.

Back then, Gu Hongyi took his friends to a nightclub, got drunk, and had sex with her mother. A month later, she came to his door saying she was pregnant and demanding he take responsibility.

Her mother had hoped to use this opportunity to rise in rank, but Gu Hongyi completely ignored her, simply giving her a sum of money to appease her and ordering her to abort the child.

Bai Xue's mother outwardly agreed to abort the child, but instead left Chongqing and went to another city to give birth to the child, hoping to use the child to gain favor and get closer to Gu Hongyi again.

In her view, as long as she gave birth to the child, it would be the Gu family's offspring, and she would be able to get something from it in the future.

When Bai Xue was ten years old, her mother sent her back to the Gu family, hoping they would take the child back.

At that time, the Gu family took her to do a paternity test. After confirming that she was Gu Hongyi's daughter, they not only did not keep her, but sent her directly to an orphanage, which broke the hearts of the mother and daughter.

Han Xiao grabbed her hair and said, "Why are you asking me? Of course, it's to get back everything I've lost!"

When Han Xiao was kicked out, she didn't have time to take anything, and Han Yue had arranged for security guards, so she couldn't get back in.

Han Xiao can no longer stay in Chongqing, so she is preparing to go abroad. However, she is taking her child with her, so she needs to be fully prepared before leaving.

Bai Xue was also an illegitimate child like her, but she really envied Han Xiao.

She could stay by Han Yue's side and enjoy the life of a pampered young lady, while she herself had to live in constant fear of being killed by Gu Hanxi.

Bai Xue smiled. This Han Xiao is really stupid. He clearly had the advantage of timing, location, and people, but he played his good hand terribly.

The Han Shu Group is now thriving in China. If she had known how to invest and manage in the past few years, she wouldn't be in this situation today.

Seeing her disdainful look, Han Xiao said angrily, "If you laugh again, I'll smash your face. You clearly have everything, why do you want me to lose everything?"

Bai Xue calmly replied, "Naturally, it's because these things never belonged to you; I was just taking them back."

Han Xiao shook off his hand and said with a wicked smile, "I don't want to waste my breath on you. Transfer one billion yuan to my account right now, and have someone bring out all my collection."

Bai Xue was amused by her words. She had really underestimated her; she had such great ambitions.

"Do you even know what the crime of extortion is? If you get caught, I doubt you'll live to see it."

Han Xiao slapped him across the face and threatened, "I don't have time to argue with you. I'll leave as soon as I get the money. If you don't give it to me, I'll kill you."

This must be why Shen Jiheng asked himself to take the risk in place of Han Xi, fearing for her safety and putting himself in danger, not even knowing if they had arrived yet.

Bai Xue couldn't give herself away; she had to wait for Shen Jiheng to give her a signal.

"You're only after money. I'll give it to you, just don't lay a hand on me, or you'll get nothing."

"If you had cooperated earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer."

Han Xiao had someone bring her a computer and instructed her to transfer all of Han Shu Group's funds online.

Bai Xue frowned as she stared at the computer screen. The problem was that she had no idea how to log in to the group's backend system, let alone Han Xi's bank card password.

Seeing that she wasn't moving, Han Xiao grabbed her hand and placed it on the keyboard.

"Hurry up and do it for me, what are you waiting for?"

Bai Xue could only make up an excuse: "I was so frightened just now that I forgot the password."

Han Xiao, of course, didn't believe her nonsense. Just as he reached out to strike her again, Bai Xue suddenly spoke up: "Chen Jiheng is here. You can't escape."

Bai Xue only dared to say this after she felt the bracelet emitting vibrations.

Before leaving home in the morning, Shen Jiheng reminded her to follow the instructions on the bracelet. He said that they would send her a signal as soon as they successfully surrounded the area.

Han Xiao said angrily, "You're trying to scare me with those words again. This house is very secluded; he won't be able to find it at all..."

Bang!

Before Han Xiao could finish speaking, the door was kicked open, and standing outside was Shen Jiheng, who had arrived with Qin Chuan and the others.

Shen Jiheng's sharp gaze swept in, startling the people inside.

Han Xiao stood up in horror, unable to believe that they had found her.

"So it was you who was pulling the strings behind the scenes. You're really something."

Shen Jiheng thought it was some important figure behind the scenes, but he never expected it to be that trash Han Xiao.

Han Xiao shook her head. She couldn't give up so easily. She quickly pulled out a knife from her pocket and held it to Bai Xue's neck.

"None of you come in, or I'll kill Han Xi."

Upon hearing this, Shen Jiheng laughed and said, "Han Xiao, I used to think you were just stupid, but I didn't expect you to be blind now."

Han Xiao stared at him blankly, not understanding what he meant.

“Shen Jiheng, I am very afraid of you, but Han Xi is in my hands now, so I have leverage. If you act recklessly, be careful, or I will make you regret it for the rest of your life.”

Shen Jiheng revealed a contented smile, his eyes showing no trace of panic or worry; this composure was something that couldn't be faked.

Bai Xue never imagined that she no longer held any place in his heart.

"Han Xiao, open your eyes wide and see clearly who you are holding hostage right now."

Han Xiao didn't understand what he meant. She looked at the person in front of her. His makeup was a little messy because they had splashed ice water on him, but otherwise there was nothing unusual.

Even Bai Xue couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.

"This face may deceive you for a while, but didn't you notice the voice and tone?"

Bai Xue deliberately changed her voice to imitate Han Xi's tone, but anyone familiar with her could still tell the difference.

However, Han Xiao only had money in his eyes and didn't seriously consider this issue.

Even though Bai Xue reminded him, Han Xiao still didn't understand what she meant.

"What exactly are you talking about?"

Shen Jiheng looked at her as if she were an idiot, then gestured to Han Xi at the door, and Han Xi walked in.

When Han Xiao saw the person who walked in, she was so surprised that she fell to the ground.

"What... what's going on? Why are there two Han Xis?"

Bai Xue wanted to call her an idiot, but even though it was so obvious, she still didn't react.

Han Xi stepped forward, glaring fiercely at her: "I really didn't expect that after I spared your life, you would threaten me instead."

After carefully examining the person in front of him, Han Xiao suddenly realized what was going on.

She pointed at Han Xi at the door and said, "That's Han Xi's voice." Then she looked at the person in front of her and asked angrily, "Who are you? You...you conspired to lure me out."

Han Xi nodded: "You've finally become a bit smarter. I just didn't expect that the person plotting against me behind my back would be you."

Bai Xue also said, "I am Bai Xue, you can release me now."

Han Xiao looked at her and saw that her face had turned deathly pale. No wonder she felt that something was wrong. It turned out that she hadn't captured Han Xi at all.

Seeing that Shen Jiheng was about to come over, she quickly put the knife to Bai Xue's neck again.
