Li Shu stopped and looked down at her phone screen, only to find that it was a video call from Shen Yu.
Thinking that he suddenly called me via video must be about something important, I immediately pressed the answer button.
The next second, Shen Yu’s handsome face appeared on the phone screen.
"Why are you suddenly video chatting?" Li Shu asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Yu was about to say that he missed her, but when he noticed the background flashing by behind her, he changed his words and said, "You're not at home?"
Li Shu nodded and said, "Not at home, doing something outside."
"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. We'll contact each other later." Shen Yu said.
"Yeah, okay." Li Shu responded. Just as she was about to raise her hand to hang up the video call, she suddenly heard a cry behind her, mixed with fear and anxiety. "Please, Li Shu, please let us go..."
The sound was quite loud, so Shen Yu on the other end of the phone naturally heard it.
He frowned and asked, "Xiaoshu, where are you? What happened?"
Li Shu's hand stopped as she was about to press the hang-up button, and then she remembered that there was someone standing behind her.
Gu Zihan probably made the sound because he secretly saw Shen Yu appear on his phone screen.
She knew about Shen Yu's little thoughts, but she was quite naive, thinking that she could gain sympathy and discredit herself in this way?
Or is it to buy time for Zhao Heng?
Li Shu collected her thoughts, turned around, and flipped the camera to face Gu Zihan. She slowly said to Chen Yu on the other end of the phone, "Do you remember this person? She was filming the show with me. She wanted to send me to her sponsor's bed. I didn't want to deal with her at first, but she was quite self-aware and jumped out of it on her own."
When Gu Zihan met her dark eyes, his heart seemed to jump into his throat, his legs became stiff, and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look her in the eye.
There was a coldness in Shen Yu's deep eyes. He didn't expect that Li Shu would encounter such a thing. His tone was full of concern that could not be concealed. "Where are you now? I'll come to find you."
"It's with her sponsor." Li Shu said, "I originally wanted to solve it myself, so I didn't tell you. You don't have to come. My third brother is with me."
She paused, then continued, "Don't worry, I'm fine. He hasn't had the chance to touch me yet, and I've already taught him a lesson. But he was looking for death and sent people to arrest me, so I came directly to your door."
Shen Yu's eyes softened a bit when he heard this, and he asked again, "Who is her financial backer?"
"Wait, let me show you." Li Shu said as she turned around again, then turned the camera to face the trembling Zhao Heng, raised her chin, and said, "Look, it's him, the young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Heng."
"Zhao family..." Shen Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Okay, I get it, what are you going to do now?"
"As for me..." Li Shu raised her eyelids and looked at Zhao Heng, saying faintly, "I'm going to cripple his legs."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door to the living room, followed by a male voice, "Hello, courier."
Ji Si frowned slightly when he heard the voice, looked at Li Shu, and then walked over.
He looked through the peephole at the man standing outside. He was indeed dressed like a courier, and he was holding a package in his hand.
"I understand. Just put it at the door."
"I'm sorry, could you please come out? This package needs to be signed for in person," said the courier.
Ji Si felt strange. The courier's appearance seemed a little inappropriate.
He turned his head to look at Li Shu who was standing not far behind him, asking her with his eyes whether she wanted to open the door.
Li Shu shook her head. She just sensed that there was more than one person outside.
If she guessed correctly, it was probably because Zhao's father couldn't raise the money and chose to call the police directly.
As for those people outside, they should all be police officers. Even the courier is a police officer in disguise. His main purpose is to trick them into opening the door.
At this moment, Zhao Heng suddenly shouted towards the door, "Help! Call the police! Someone is trying to kill me! Please help me!"
The corner of Li Shu's mouth twitched slightly. In fact, she didn't really want to cripple Zhao Heng's legs. She was just pretending to scare him.
Moreover, if she really wanted to do something, she didn't have to do it herself. She could just order an evil ghost to get rid of Zhao Heng without anyone noticing.
But the police arrived faster than she expected.
Li Shu let out a light click of her tongue, her gaze fell on Zhao Heng, and she gave him a killing look.
Seeing this, Zhao Heng reflexively fell silent. He thought that he could delay it as long as possible.
The courier outside the door heard the sudden silence from inside and couldn't help but start to get anxious. Fearing that something might happen to Zhao Heng, he simply stopped pretending and said bluntly, "You've surrounded the people inside. I advise you to open the door now. Don't do anything you'll regret. It's not too late to stop now."
Ji Si, who was standing by the door, instantly realized the courier's true identity. He turned around and walked to Zhao Heng's side, stopping to prevent him from running over and opening the door while he wasn't paying attention. He lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Shu, there should be police outside. What should we do now?"
Li Shu glanced at Chen Yu on the phone screen, knowing that Chen Yu must have heard what Ji Si said, and said, "I'm going to hang up first. I'll call you back after I've sorted it out here. Don't worry, I have a way to get out of this unscathed."
Shen Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he said nothing more, "Okay."
Li Shu nodded and then hung up the video call.
She put away her phone, her face expression calm, and her sharp eyes fell on Zhao Heng, "Take Gu Zihan to the bedroom and close the door."
"Ah?" Zhao Heng was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, with panic in his eyes. He didn't know what Li Shu was going to do.
Li Shu's patience was already running out, and her voice was slightly cold. "I'll count to three. If you don't come in, I'll break your legs right now."
"Go away!" Zhao Heng was so scared that he quickly walked towards Gu Zihan and pulled her into the bedroom.
After seeing the bedroom door closed, Li Shu took out two invisibility talismans from her pocket and cast them on Ji Si and herself respectively.
"Xiaoshu, what is this?" Ji Si asked.
"With the invisibility talisman, no one can see us now. We can just open the door and go out." Li Shu explained.
Ji Si's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard that, but he knew that there were more important things to do now. Hearing the movement coming from outside, he stopped talking nonsense and nodded, "Then let's go out quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened from the outside with a bang, and then five or six fully armed police officers in black rushed in.
The last person to come in was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, who looked somewhat similar to Zhao Heng. It seemed that he should be Zhao Heng's father.
Seeing this, Li Shu raised her eyebrows, glanced at the damaged electronic door lock, raised her hand to call Ji Si beside her, and walked out quietly, walking straight past the people who broke in.
