From nearby, there were the sound of anxious footsteps and also the shrill voice of the child from just now.
“It’s here, it’s here. This woman wanted to kill that man.”
There was a whir in Bai Luoyin’s head. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out. There was already a bunch of people standing at her door, including a few police holding guns.
That was it…
She saw black, and all the strength in her body was lost.
An officer hurriedly helped Bai Luoyin up before checking on the man lying in be the end, he was not dead but had merely passed out. His line of sight went lower and shifted to the man’s arm with many needle holes as well as the syringe jabbed at his neck and the box of items on the bed.
“Quick, call the doctor over.”
The officer shouted to the people around him. He did not dare to move anything in the area and had to wait for the doctor to come first.
‘Ka!’ Bai Luoyin’s thin white hands were cuffed, and she was now like dirt on the floor. She did not have any energy left to fight.
Not long after, a man wearing the white doctor robe walked in. He was a pathologist, and his diagnosis would determine the severity of the case.
The doctor checked on Gao Yi’s condition and looked at his arm before asking the officer to send Gao Yi to the hospital.
“What’s wrong?” asked the officer, “Is he okay?”
The doctor checked the contents of the box and replied.
“He was given a very strong dosage of sleeping pills, and he had also been administered drugs for a long time. I think he was given drugs for at least a month. However, we need to wait for the hospital report to confirm the details.”
“Here.” He pointed at the box on the table. “There are very strong sleeping pills and drugs.”
The officer suddenly understood and looked at Bai Luoyin’s eyes flashing with worry.
“Madam, were you trying to murder the man?”
“I…” Bai Luoyin’s lips quivered, but she was too shocked to say anything.
It was not supposed to be like that… it was not.
She turned her head and looked at the shivering child standing at the side. Once the child saw her face, he shouted once again. “It’s not my fault, not my fault. I’m innocent. I just wanted to come in and steal something, but that woman… it was her, it was her!” He pointed at Bai Luoyin. “I saw her holding a knife to kill the man.”
“Knife?” The officer held the syringe up and turned it around in his hands.
“Hm, it could have been this because from here” —he pointed to the fireplace— “when you look over, there will be a reflection from the light. When he saw the cold light, he might have thought that it was the murder weapon.”
In actual fact, it was just a syringe.

However, who said a syringe could not kill anyone?
Gao Yi’s report was out very soon, and it did show that he was administered with a large dosage of sleeping pills and drugs. Even though the drugs were not strong enough to kill him, but it was obvious that he had a drug addiction.
When Gao Yi woke up, the police were already there.
When the officer asked him about the incident, he showed a face of disbelief; and he looked as if he was going crazy. The officers pitied him as they found him pitiful to be hurt by the person by his side.
Not sure who leaked the rumors, but soon, the newspapers from the entire town were all reporting on the Bai family incident. The Bai family was not small, and they were quite famous in the town. Good news traveled slow, but bad news traveled far and wide. Soon, the whole Rose Town knew of the incident.
Madam Mei Fu smiled and went to look for Xia Ruoxin.
“Ruo, Ruo, are you in?” She knocked on the door repeatedly. Xia Ruoxin put down the half-done painting and opened the door for her. With the turn of her body, Madam Mei Fu squeezed herself in.
“Ruo, did you know? Something big happened.”
“What happened?” asked Xia Ruoxin as she poured a glass of water for Madam Mei Fu to drink before she continued. Based on her personality, Xia Ruoxin knew that her mouth would not get tired even after hours of talking.
“Ruo, something big happened.” Madam Mei Fu pulled Xia Ruoxin and started talking animatedly.
“That Bai family, the one from China like you. Right, her name is Bai Luoyin. She was arrested.”
Xia Ruoxin also wanted to pour a glass of water for herself, but she stopped in her motion as she felt that it was not possible.
Bai Luoyin was caught. She was caught… but why?
She put her glass down and sat down as well. “Mei Fu, what exactly happened?”
Madam Mei Fu drank a mouthful of water and then started telling her story animatedly as if she saw it for herself; she had even described the little details descriptively.
She heard that an abandoned child had sneaked into the Bai family, perhaps because he saw they were rich. In the end, when he saw someone coming, he was scared and hid in the Bai family fireplace. In the end, he thought Bai Luoyin was wielding a knife to kill her husband.
He shouted and ran out and just nice bumped into patrolling police officers. Once the officers heard their cry, they burst into the room as they thought there was really a murder going on. It turned out that they witnessed Bai Luoyin making her husband unconscious and then feeding him drugs to harm him.
Everyone was spreading that Bai Luoyin did not really like her husband so she thought real hard and figured out a way to kill him.
Xia Ruoxin touched her own arm and squeezed it really hard to wake herself up.
Bai Luoyin killed Gao Yi because she did not love her husband.
Was this Gao Yi’s doing?
Madam Mei Fu continued chattering, and to Xia Ruoxin, this was even more complicated and full of twists as compared to a palace drama.
This was exactly a murder that was well-thought of. Bai Luoyin started planning for this since she was young. Rumors were truly scary, and gossip… was everywhere.
People had dug out everything about the Bai family history. Some even said that Bai Luoyin did not like the husband her step-mother brought back so she spent all her effort to sacrifice her own marriage to kill her husband silently.
They had even found out that Bai Luoyin was a pharmacist. All these years, the reason why the Bai family only had her as a child was because she administered drugs to her step-mother to ensure that she was the only heir to her family.
The more Xia Ruoxin listened, the more frightened she felt. How could it be twisted until this? The love Bai Luoyin had for Gao Yi was twisted and psychotic. In the beginning, she risked her all. She attempted suicide to force, coerce, and scare Gao Yi. She did everything just because she loved him psychotically, and she wanted to possess him. However, the rumors now were the exact opposite. It was not for love, but for murder.
