Zhu Baixi's pretty face was deathly pale, and she had completely lost her previous calm and superior demeanor.
Chen Xiao said, "Since you're so unwilling, it seems I'll have to do it myself. However, an hour certainly won't be enough if I have to take matters into my own hands."
With that, there was a loud RRRIP— as Zhu Baixi's clothes were torn. Her entire body trembled.
"Chen Xiao! Don't push me too far!"
Anger flared in Chen Xiao's voice. "You were calling for my head earlier, and now you've stolen from me to try and divert the blame! Who's really pushing things too far here? I am giving you a chance to atone. But you only get one!"
Zhu Baixi thought of her two subordinates, who would return in less than an hour, and her heart clenched violently. She took a deep breath, gritting her teeth. "What do you want?"
Chen Xiao patted his thigh and sat down beside her, his gaze landing on her fiery red lips.
