Zhang Cuiyan and Bai Xinrou sat at the bus stop near the police station, waiting for the bus. Zhang Cuiyan didn't say a word, and her expression was somewhat solemn.
Bai Xinrou was busy holding her phone the whole time.
Bai Xinrou: Reporter Lin, Bai Qianmo and Bai Kangyan went to the Dongcheng Police Station to visit Bai Xiruo today.
Lin Donghai received Bai Xinrou's WeChat message and replied immediately.
Lin Donghai: Ms. Bai, is it convenient for you to take this call now?
Bai Xinrou glanced at Zhang Cuiyan.
Bai Xinrou: I'm with my mom right now, so it's not convenient for me to answer the phone. Let's keep in touch via WeChat.
Lin Donghai: Okay, so you met Bai Qianmo at the police station?
Bai Xinrou: Yes, we even chatted for a few minutes at the police station entrance. Bai Qianmo was very cold to my mother and me. When I asked to support my parents, Bai Qianmo not only disagreed, but also said that there was no need to continue contacting poor relatives like us. She also threatened us to leave the capital as soon as possible and that we should never mention her in the media again.
Bai Xinrou's embellished words were very timely for Lin Donghai.
Recent news about Bai Qianmo has all been positive. To dig up dirt on Bai Qianmo, Orange Video has pinned all its hopes on Zhang Cuiyan and her daughter Bai Xinrou.
This mother and daughter certainly did not disappoint.
"Who are you chatting with?" Zhang Cuiyan's gaze came closer, and Bai Xinrou trembled in fright.
Zhang Cuiyan raised her eyebrows and snatched Bai Xinrou's phone.
"Mom, why did you take my phone?"
"Let me see who you've been talking to, acting all sneaky and furtive." Zhang Cuiyan snatched Bai Xinrou's phone, and her face immediately turned cold after seeing the contents.
"You're still in contact with that Lin Donghai? Is he trying to lure you into selling him information again?"
Bai Xinrou snatched her phone back in annoyance.
"You're not paving the way for me to enter the entertainment industry, so of course I have to seize the opportunity myself," Lin Donghai said. "As long as I can dig up some juicy gossip about Bai Qianmo, the company will decide to sign me as a trainee."
"You...you're completely bewitched. Let me tell you, Lin Donghai is just using you. Once you're no longer of any use, he'll kick you aside. How can a mere reporter become the head of a company?"
"Mom, why do you underestimate me? Bai Xiruo and Bai Qianmo can both be stars. I don't think I'm any worse than them, so I can be a star too. I not only want to enter the entertainment industry, but I also want to be more famous than Bai Qianmo in the future."
Zhang Cuiyan chuckled dryly twice.
“Although I’m just a village woman, I’ve lived to this age. Let me tell you, you’re not suited for that kind of circle.”
Bai Xinrou found these words very offensive.
"Why can Bai Qianmo and Bai Xiruo do it but I can't? I refuse to believe it. Just you wait and see, I will definitely be more suitable for this industry than Bai Qianmo."
Just then, the bus arrived, and Bai Xinrou angrily boarded it.
Zhang Cuiyan chuckled twice: "Of course I'd be happy if you could do well there."
But as her mother, she knew her daughter well: ambitious, but not very bright!
Compared to that brat Bai Qianmo, Xin Rou is far inferior.

Police Station
As soon as Bai Xiruo returned to her cell, several fellow inmates surrounded her with hostility.
"Did your family come to visit you?"
Bai Xiruo sat on the bed in silence.
One of the short-haired inmates sneered and grabbed Bai Xiruo's hair hard.
Bai Xiruo frowned, staring coldly at her short-haired cellmate.
"Hmph, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me talking to you?"
Bai Xiruo sneered, "You want something, don't you? Too bad the person who came to see me didn't bring anything."
The leader of the group stared at Bai Xiruo with a gloomy gaze and sharp eyes.
"I heard you come from a wealthy family. After you went to jail, how come you didn't take anything when your relatives and friends came to visit? Little girl, lying to me will have consequences."
Bai Xiruo glanced at the eldest sister with an expressionless face.
"Since you know who I am, you should have heard how I got in. Do you think any of my family members would come to see me?"
Apart from Bai Xiruo, the other inmates in this dormitory have been there for at least a year.
So they had no idea what had happened outside during that year.
However, there were other people in the prison who were brought in at the same time as Bai Qianmo, so the leader and her fellow inmates learned about Bai Xiruo's identity from the inmates in other rooms.
The gang leader's bullying of Bai Xiruo was purely out of resentment towards the rich.
Staring at Bai Xiruo's lifeless eyes, the gang leader waved to her short-haired cellmate, who obediently let go of her hand.
"I won't hit you today, but if your family visits you recently, you must share the good things you receive with them."
"Bai Xiruo, another family member has come to visit!!"
Upon hearing this, the leader's two cloudy, triangular teeth suddenly flashed brightly.
Bai Xiruo looked completely bewildered.
I wonder who will come to see her at this time.
Bai Qianmo and Bai Kangyan appeared on the other side of the communication room, separated by only one wall. Bai Xiruo showed a slight surprise on her face, but quickly composed herself with her strong inner strength...
