Bai Xiruo snorted coldly, her eyes revealing shrewd calculation.
"Bai Qianmo sent you, didn't she? Hmph, do you think you can make me lose like this? Heh, if I said that you broke into the ward to poison my mother, and I fought back fiercely, who would the people outside be more likely to believe?"
Gu Shengling frowned: "You're really cunning."
Bai Xiruo chuckled smugly twice.
Then he suddenly shouted loudly.
"Help! Help! Someone wants my mother back! Help! Someone, please come quick!!"
Gu Shengling raised an eyebrow and pretended to be flustered as he released Bai Xiruo's wrist.
Once Bai Xiruo was freed, she deliberately slammed into a chair not far behind her, falling to the ground with the chair with a loud thud.
A series of hurried footsteps came from outside. Bai Xiruo sneered inwardly, but put on a pained expression on her face.
"Please don't hurt my mother, please..."
"I... I was the one who wanted to hurt Actress Han, and now you, you viper, are trying to bite me back?"
“I know Qianmo sent you. She has always hated me and my mother. Now she’s finally going to make a move against us, isn’t she? I will never let you hurt my family.”
Outside the door
A group of reporters burst in, snapping photos of Bai Xiruo one after another.
Seeing so many reporters come in, Bai Xiruo was slightly stunned, as if she had seen a savior. She shakily got up from the ground, ran to the reporters, and pointed at Gu Shengling.
"This person wants to hurt us. He was sent by Bai Qianmo. Please call the police for me."
Although she didn't know why reporters would appear at this time, Bai Xiruo was focused on shifting the blame for framing Han Songyan, so she couldn't calm down and think about anything else.
Reporters raised their microphones and aimed them at Bai Xiruo.
"You're saying Bai Qianmo sent people to harm Actress Han? Do you have any evidence?"
Bai Xiruo anxiously explained, "He is Bai Qianmo's friend. I personally saw Bai Qianmo bring him to the ward today."
Gu Shengling crossed his arms and stared at Bai Xiruo, who was putting on a one-man show, with a half-smile.
One of the reporters gave a disdainful smile.
"Bai Xiruo, if he really came to kill Han Yinghou, why are you and Han Yinghou both unharmed right now?"
"Good question!" Gu Shengling gave the reporter a thumbs up.
As expected of the media company invested in by my junior sister, these reporters who came today are not so easily fooled.
Bai Xiruo panicked when a reporter asked her an unconventional question, her mind immediately in turmoil.
"I...I just found him and you came in."
"Oh? What a coincidence! But we overheard something different outside the door just now."
Bai Xiruo's heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at the reporters in front of her with a puzzled look.
Why do these reporters' words seem so strange? It's as if they witnessed what just happened in the hospital ward.
"Bai Xiruo, the truth is that you wanted to eliminate the problem completely, but this person barged in and stopped you, right?"
"No, it wasn't me, it was Bai Qianmo. This was all Bai Qianmo's conspiracy."
One of the reporters scoffed, "Do you need me to help you recall what you just said in the hospital room?"
Bai Xiruo felt her body go limp and involuntarily took a step back in fright.
The reporter continued speaking with unwavering conviction.
"You just admitted that you personally pushed Actress Han down the stairs, and you even complained that she didn't die immediately, forcing you to risk your life again."
Another reporter added, "You also said that you wanted the role in 'The Legend of 1900,' but the Korean actress cast her vote for Bai Qianmo. You must be very upset."
"I didn't! It wasn't me... I didn't do it." Bai Xiruo completely panicked. How could these reporters know what she had just said in the hospital room?
A cool, clear voice slowly drifted from the doorway.
"Bai Xiruo, this show should come to an end."
Upon hearing this voice, Bai Xiruo trembled, her face turning deathly pale instantly.
He looked at the girl walking towards him in shock.
"Bai Qianmo? Weren't you taken to the police station?"
"Surprised? I'm not the murderer. The police will release me after they clear me of suspicion."
"How could that be? Aunt Cai clearly pointed the finger at you, and your necklace was found on the balcony. There are witnesses and physical evidence. What evidence do you have to clear your name? The police won't let you go until they've investigated thoroughly. Oh, I see, you got that old man behind you to bail you out, didn't you? Heh, Bai Qianmo, you're really despicable!"
Old man?
Gu Jueye, standing at the door, had a somewhat cold expression.
Rongyi and Gujin, standing behind him, couldn't help but chuckle secretly.
Compared to Miss Bai, the Duke does indeed seem to qualify as "old"...
Bai Qianmo curled her lips dismissively: "What kind of person are you to think everyone is like you? Unfortunately, I will never become someone like you who will stop at nothing to achieve my goals, and I have no interest in selling my body!"
Bai Qianmo deliberately emphasized the last two words, "selling flesh."
It subtly criticizes Bai Xiruo for her ambiguous relationship with the investor in order to get the role.
Bai Xiruo, being so intelligent, immediately sensed Bai Qianmo's sarcasm towards her, and felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if she had been intensely humiliated.
She took a deep breath, remained silent for a while, gradually calmed down, and then gave the reporters present a sinister look.
