Chapter 652: Chapter 652: Forced into a Corner
"Starting now, one by one, come out here. I’m going to ask questions, and you are going to answer. If anyone is hoping to bluff their way through, and your answers don’t match with others, you understand what will happen without me saying it! If you answer well, I might let people go. After all, you haven’t done anything really harmful to me, so I might consider it, but it will depend on your performance," Bai Xiao coldly sized up the people.
Curly was the first to get up, as everyone else barely moved without agonizing pain, so he was the only one who looked human.
"I’ll talk, I’ll talk. I guarantee you’ll know whatever you want, just please spare me," he saw an opportunity. Just now, by playing dead, he had his own plan. If his big brother had defeated this woman, he naturally would have stood and joined; but if his big brother had fallen, since he hadn’t made a move, he was innocent.
The outcome didn’t really relate to him either way.
Bai Xiao glanced at him! Curly was a slick one, but he surely didn’t know much being such a minor character. No one would tell him anything significant.
"Drag him out for me," she motioned to the man on the ground referred to as big brother.
That big brother felt like dying right there.
Why start with him?
Curly shakily helped the big brother outside. The two were as limp as noodles, seemingly drained of all strength. They barely managed to support each other to the outside, but before reaching the chairs, they both collapsed with a thud.
The few steps seemed like a grueling journey, and both felt like they were about to collapse.
Looking at the acupuncture needles on their arms, who dared to pull it out? What if something went wrong and they ended up paralyzed?
They had heard that traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture was about hitting the right spots, and one misstep could kill. Neither dared to risk their lives, and mentally cursed Mei Sister’s ancestors thoroughly. Damn her for harming them.
Anyone who considered this a good thing right now would want to kill him.
"Curly, go back. Don’t think of doing anything. Just a reminder, if you pull out the needles, at best you’ll end up with a crooked mouth and squinty eyes, at worst, your life is at risk. If you don’t believe it, feel free to try. I don’t mind," Bai Xiao coldly warned them.
Curly didn’t dare to mess up, quickly returning with a forced smile, "I know, I know, I wouldn’t dare!" He slowly shuffled his steps back.
"You’re their big brother? How should I address you?"
Only then did Bai Xiao sit down on a chair, kicking the lump of mud on the ground. Now even he barely resembled a big brother, he was just mud.
The old man sat not far from Bai Xiao, warily scanning the surroundings, fearing someone might jump out and strike them from behind.
"I’m Pizi, big sister, I mean, doctor, we were wrong. We didn’t recognize a great person when we saw one, and we never meant for this, it was all Mei Sister forcing us. You see, we don’t know you, why would we provoke this trouble? It was all out of desperation, especially since she’s the lover of our big brother, Xiaodao. We couldn’t refuse," Pizi wasn’t one to cover for his own big brother.
At this moment, his desire to survive was strong, looking for a way out for himself was better than dying here, and evading responsibility was something they excelled at.
"Then tell me about this Mei Sister? Who is she?" Bai Xiao really just wanted to know if it was the person she knew. Nothing else mattered much.
