Shen Baiyan smirked triumphantly. "You can think of it that way."
The elevator doors opened, and the two stepped out side by side.
Su Wan said, "Fine, I'm being threatened by you. But if you can do me a favor, I might consider returning your things."
Shen Baiyan glanced at her and casually said, "Go ahead and say it!"
Su Wan began telling him about being deceived by her master, until the two got into the luxury car and Shen Baiyan interrupted her, saying to the driver, "Drive! City Police Station."
"Yes, boss!"
The luxury car started, and Shen Baiyan parted his thin lips slightly: "Continue."
Su Wan gave him an indignant sidelong glance and continued her story.
It wasn't until several minutes later that Su Wan finished recounting the whole story.
After listening to her story, Shen Baiyan stared at her intently.
Seeing that Shen Baiyan didn't speak, Su Wan assumed that he didn't believe her, so she solemnly emphasized, "I didn't lie to you! You just saw my abilities."
Shen Baiyan believed her, after all, he had seen a lot today.
Seeing that Su Wan was getting anxious, he slowly asked, "What do you need my help with?"
Su Wan said, "I need a household registration!"
Shen Baiyan looked at her without saying a word.
Su Wan explained, "Now I'm an unregistered resident without even an identity, which makes it very inconvenient for me to see a doctor."
Shen Baiyan said coldly, "Since you're going to die anyway, why bother registering and then canceling your household registration?"
Hearing this, Su Wan lowered her head and said listlessly, "Never mind, you're right, I'm going to die anyway."
Seeing her give up on herself, Shen Baiyan couldn't help but sneer, "Being so obedient is unlike you."
"What?" Su Wan looked up.
"Dead duck."
Su Wan then realized that Shen Baiyan was mocking her.
She glared at him angrily: "You're the one who's being stubborn! Not only are you stubborn, you also..."
Su Wan suddenly stopped talking.
Shen Baiyan asked, "Return what?"
Su Wan glared at him: "Hard-hearted!"
"I can help you with the household registration issue. I'm curious how you knew that man was a murderer?"
Shen Baiyan sized up Su Wan, waiting for her answer.
Su Wan thought for a moment: "This is related to metaphysics. If you want to know, you have to forgive me for borrowing your money. After all, I didn't really want to take your things. I was just angry that you treated me so rudely."
Su Wan found a good excuse for her theft.
Su Wan's unintentional words reminded Shen Baiyan of that intoxicating and soul-stirring feeling.
A hint of desire flickered in his eyes.
Suddenly, he leaned close to Su Wan and asked in a low voice in her ear, "Do you think I'm... rude?"
The man's warm, unique cedar scent sprayed onto Su Wan's cheeks, causing her to stiffen. The scene from that night involuntarily flashed through her mind, and her face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
To cover up her guilty conscience, she retorted angrily, "Fine, I'm desperate for money. I'll starve to death if I don't have any!"
Seeing that she was getting anxious, Shen Baiyan stopped teasing her.
"Give me back everything, and I'll let it go."
Hearing this, Su Wan regretted selling her phone; how was she going to repay it now?
She said hesitantly, "Well... I've already sold that phone."
As she spoke, she observed Shen Baiyan's expression. If Shen Baiyan got angry, she would find a way to earn money to pay him back.
Shen Baiyan remained expressionless and simply said, "Give me back everything else."
Su Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay! I'll return it to you when I get back!"
