Chapter 65: Gaining Leverage Over Xiao Qingxue

White Rose didnt ask where these two women came from, understanding all too well the principle that the more one knows, the faster they meet their demise.

From now on, these two will stay by your side, ensuring your safety, Chen Luo told White Rose.

Alright. White Rose couldnt, and didnt dare, refuse.

She realized these women were likely sent by Chen Luo to monitor her. Indeed, Chen Luo had summoned Qiuzhu and Dongju for this very purpose and didnt even spend his own money on it. The one billion had come from White Roses funds.

Take this. Chen Luo presented a round, white pill exuding a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs. White Rose hesitated, wondering if it was poisoned.

Chen Luo read her thoughts, Dont worry, its not poisonous. Its specially formulated to treat your injuries.

The punch earlier must have caused internal injuries to White Rose, not to mention the bruise marks on her neck from being choked. Consuming the pill would heal these wounds. It had cost Chen Luo 100,000 yuan to trade for it from the system. A bit of sweetness to follow the harshness.

After swallowing the pill, White Rose felt a warm sensation throughout her body. The bruising on her neck disappeared, and even the pain in her abdomen was gone. She felt incredibly comfortable. Even some of her old, minor ailments seemed to have vanished. It was like a miracle drug.

Now, mobilize whoever you can to help me with something, Chen Luo said, pulling out a photograph. Keep an eye on this person. Monitor all his movements closely. Hes very powerful, so be careful not to be discovered by him.

The person in the photo was, of course, Ye Chen.

Is it just surveillance? White Rose asked Chen Luo, looking at the picture of Ye Chen.

Correct, just keep an eye on him, and dont engage him rashly. Chen Luo warned White Rose. He knew that if White Roses underlings clashed with Ye Chen, they would undoubtedly be severely defeated and end up gifting their heads to their enemy.

By the way, is White Rose your real name? Chen Luo asked as he was leaving.

No, my real name is Bai Meixiang, she replied.

White Rose was merely a nickname from the underworld; her real name, Bai Meixiang, was known to only a few. Most people had come to accept White Rose as her actual name.

Thats a beautiful name, Chen Luo complimented. He instructed Qiuzhu and Dongju to follow White Roses commands and then left the Rose Bar.

Take a good look at your own performance. I think your acting needs improvement. You can come to me for tips in the future, Zhao Yingxuan teased.

Enraged, Xiao Qingxues face turned red as she attempted to attack Zhao Yingxuan but was quickly subdued by Chunmei.

Too bad you cant hurt me. Annoying, isnt it?

Zhao Yingxuan was adept at provoking others, and Xiao Qingxue, losing all semblance of her usual composed demeanor, was nearly driven to explode in anger.

What do you want? Xiao Qingxue asked furiously.

I want you to obediently listen to me, how about that? Zhao Yingxuan leaned in close to Xiao Qingxue and proposed.

The thought of Xiao Qingxue being utterly subservient to her made Zhao Yingxuans spirits soar uncontrollably.

Youre dreaming, Xiao Qingxue retorted.

Dreaming, am I? Zhao Yingxuan sneered. Should I promote your movie by sharing it in the companys internal group chat, perhaps?

Xiao Qingxues face changed instantly. In the eyes of everyone at the company, Xiao Qingxue maintained an impeccable image. If Zhao Yingxuan were to release the video, her life would be utterly ruined. She would rather die than face such shame.

I will never obey you willingly. Id rather die, Xiao Qingxue remained defiant.

Perhaps you should reconsider your terms, she conceded, despite her reluctance. She couldnt bear the thought of the video being publicized.

The corners of Zhao Yingxuans mouth curled up slightly. She had no intention of sharing the video with others. It would upset a certain someone, and she was well aware of mens possessiveness. However, using it to threaten Xiao Qingxue proved to be very effective.

Once someone compromises for the first time, a second and third time follows, possibly endlessly.

Watching Xiao Qingxue, once so noble in character and status, fall from grace brought a sense of achievement to Zhao Yingxuan. Whether it was the effect of her villainous aura or her inherent wickedness, Zhao Yingxuan reveled in doing evil deeds.

Qingxue, I am your stepmother after all. I wouldnt want to be too hard on you. Come on, call me Mom, she taunted.

Xiao Qingxues face contorted in disgust. She had never deigned to call Zhao Yingxuan Mom before, and she found it impossible to do so now. She had only one mother, and it certainly wasnt this vile, fox-like woman. Reluctant as she was, Xiao Qingxue found herself cornered, with Zhao Yingxuan holding her Achilles heel.
