Scheming white lotus (4.08) - Probably because I'm short

---

When the door was forcefully pushed open, everyone in the room fell silent.

Once the protagonist shou finished stating the purpose of his arrival, he raised a hand holding a warrant. The policemen behind him rushed in and surrounded the few people.

Xiang Han had just grabbed two red notes when he saw the protagonist shou. He lowered his head and looked at the protagonist gong below him with a frozen expression, instantly forgetting to grab the flying notes.

Shen Ze was the first to come to his senses. He used a little force and dragged Xiang Han back.

Xiang Han was caught off guard and slipped, directly falling on him.

Shen Ze quickly lifted a hand to press against Xiang Han's head, and whispered, "It's nothing, just squat for a bit, Mr Gu will settle it."

Xiang Han hadn't had the chance to react before he was forced to squat on the ground alongside Shen Ze.

He was speechless. Shen Ze was truly...experienced and familiar with all these.

At this time, the protagonist shou walked in. When he swept a gaze over them, fury burst forth as he turned to Gu Hai Sheng with an icy gaze with a kind of bone-chilling coldness.

After seeing him appear, Gu Hai Sheng had also frozen. He finally recovered his senses and laughed frivolously, "Officer Lin, it's a misunderstanding. We were only playing mahjong for fun. You also know, our Brilliant Jade has always been an upstanding establishment, we'll definitely not dip into those..."

"I really don't know." Lin Rui Qing interrupted him, holding up a red note, and shook it with a cold laugh, "How much fun does Boss Gu have every night?"

Gu Hai Sheng raised a hand to rub his temples, feeling a throbbing headache, "That... I didn't keep my wallet properly, so they accidentally fell out."

Xiang Han couldn't help bursting into laughter and secretly lit a candle for him.

Lin Rui Qing snorted coldly, and turned to look at Xiang Han and Shen Ze before simply throwing the notes at Gu Hai Sheng's face in anger, "They're both underage, right? Gu Hai Sheng, I never thought you were this immoral."

"What?" Gu Hai Sheng was dumbfounded. Just as he wanted to explain, Lin Rui Qing had already raised a hand, his voice full of fury, "Take them away."

Shen Ze and Xiang Han raised their heads to look at each other in dismay.

Lin Rui Qing abruptly bent down to reach the same level as them, his gaze complicated. Hesitating for a moment, he spoke, "You two... also have to follow me to the station."

Xiang Han paled and revealed and expression of 'fright', causing Lin Rui Qing to realise his tone had been too severe. Therefore, he attempted to console them, "Don't be afraid, I just need to ask you some questions."

Half an hour later, in the police station, Xiang Han and Shen Ze sat side by side. Towards Lin Rui Qing's interrogation, Shen Ze refused to speak, not even saying a word. When Xiang Han saw this, he also decided to stay silent.

Lin Rui Qing was unsuccessful in his questioning and thus, decide to start with Gu Hai Sheng.

Gu Hai Sheng helplessly explained, "I'm really not a pedophile and my relationship with those two kids are extremely pure. Officer Lin, can you not accuse me without evidence?"
