My Scheming Little Devil

Soon, Bai Sijia was tied to the chair, while other goons were scattered around, trembling under the threats of armed men.

"Mommy, are you okay?" Ye Yuan also followed the men in. These men were loaned to Ye Lu by Ling Yan to help her capture Bai Sijia.

"I’m fine," Ye Lu said. She knew she had to put her own life at risk to lure Bai Sijia out. With time running out, she had no choice but to take the risk.

She walked over to Bai Sijia, pulled out her cell phone, and Bai Sijia looked at her questioningly.

"Bai Sijia, you thought you were clean-handed, didn’t you? Have you forgotten about the arson case Yuan Jiayin made you commit? Jiayin isn’t stupid, she knew she had to control you and get you dirty as well. Thanks to her for providing this clue."

Bai Sijia’s face grew grim. At the time, she had no choice but to help Yuan Jiayin, but she didn’t expect that woman to pull her into the crime.

"Yuanyuan, note down all the phone numbers she dialed that day. Let’s see who she ordered to start the fire."

Ye Yuan nodded, pulling up a chair in front of Bai Sijia and began jotting down the phone numbers.

Bai Sijia’s heart skipped a beat. If Ye Lu found the arsonist and used them to testify against her, she would be ruined.

Frantically, she watched Ye Yuan jot down the numbers, regretting not having deleted the call history. But there were so many numbers that day, she hoped Ye Lu wouldn’t know which one was the culprit. If she dared to call and inquire each number, her contact would get suspicious.

"Stop, send a text to this number, ask them to come over," Ye Lu pointed to one of the numbers.

Bai Sijia went sheet white. How did she know?

At the sight of her shock, Ye Lu gave a slight smile: "I’ve been observing your reactions. Your reaction was especially pronounced when copying this number. Now, your expression confirms my deduction, and it’s this person."

Bai Sijia glared hatefully at her, her heart and mind frantic.

"Ye Lu, the King won’t let you get away with this."

Ye Lu sneered: "You think I would be scared? Whether or not he spares me is in the future. But now, I’m not letting you go. You dare to collaborate with Yuan Jiayin to harm my child, how could I let you off?"

As for the ThirdYoung Master Jun, she couldn’t care less. If he wanted revenge later, she would face it then.

"I’ve sent it," Ye Yuan sent a message claiming that she was very satisfied with the previous job and wanted to hire him for another job, offering triple the reward.

The person was quite cautious, but he was overtaken by greed. After a few tricks played by the clever Ye Yuan, he was lured over.

As soon as he entered the door, he was swarmed by armed guards, and after a struggle, was captured.

His face was full of confusion and panic. Ye Lu had him dragged in front of Bai Sijia, and he froze, unable to understand what was happening as even his employer had been caught.

Ye Lu picked up a handgun, flicked the safety off, and pointed it at the man’s head, icily.

"Your life, or help me testify against this woman before you. Your choice, and you’ve got ten seconds. 10, 9, 8..."

The man’s mind was in chaos, but the cold gun against his temple made him feel like his life was hanging by a thread.

Without time to hesitate, ten seconds wasn’t enough for him to make a choice. Under extreme fear and pressure, he immediately caved in.

"I’ll testify, I’ll testify."

"You’re crazy, if you testify against me, you’ll be imprisoned too," Bai Sijia was furious. This fool, scared to the point of submission by just a little threat.
