Shi Enxi turned and looked at the woman in front of her. "I don''t care what happened to your past." She was not a kind person. No matter how tragic Hana''s past was, Shi Enxi did not have any pity for her. "You shouldn''t have messed around with the people I care for."

    "S-stay away from me!" Hana stuttered as she inched back the moment Shi Enxi took a step forward. She was nowhere to run. She could not fight back, she could only struggle. The room was private and soundproof. She couldn''t reach out on the red button that was near the IV stand to call for the nurse''s help.

    "How many holes should I make? I should do it in a place where it won''t be noticed, right?"

    "HELP!!! SOMEON- ACK!!!!" The scream tore through her like a great shard of glass. Hana''s eyes widen and pulse quicken, her heart thudding like a rock rattling in a box.

    Shi Enxi mercilessly poked the needle on her leg. "One," she began counting.

    No matter how much Hana struggled, Shi Enxi could easily poke her body with the needle. No matter how much she screamed for help, no one came. The scream came again and again, desperate, terrified... human. Hana couldn''t escape the smiling demoness who enjoying every moment inside the room.

    "Thirty." With that Shi Enxi stopped.

    "P-please... Please let me go..." cried Hana, her voice hoarse from shouting. Beads of cold sweat tripled down her forehead. Her face was as pale as a sheet.

    "You should be thankful that I''m only stabbing you with a needle, not a knife." She scoffed, looking at her with her cold black eyes.

    "Now then, we should disinfect your wounds, right?" This time, Shi Enxi took the alcohol container that was on top of the drawer. "I wonder if Qiao Nuan would be satisfied now? You should scream louder for her to hear you. If you don''t shout loud enough, Qiao Nuan won''t hear you from the land of the dead." She didn''t blink when she poured the alcohol on the places she poked with the needle.

    Hana shouted again. Pouring alcohol on her wounds made her feel like a hundred scorpions were stinging here over and over again. She felt her body burning, it trembled from the stings. "S-stop... Please... I-I won''t go after my son anymore..." She whispered pleadingly.

    Shi Enxi paused and raised a brow, "What is that?"

    "Y-your son! Your son!" She quickly corrected it. "I-I won''t go after your son anymore! I-I won''t bother a-anyone!"

    She placed the bottle back on the drawer as she listened to Hana. She sat down back on the chair and crossed her legs. "I''m listening."

    "H-Huang Li, Fan Xiao Yao, anyone you love! I-I will never approach them! You will not see even my shadow! S-so please let me go!" Hana begged.

    Shi Enxi cupped her chin as if she was giving her words a thought. "I might think about it if you tell me about your partner''s name."

    "H-he''s name is Jin Bolin! H-he''s living in the apartment near my place! Room number... Room number 34D!"

    It was amusing how Hana quickly ratted out her partner just like that. Shi Enxi stood and was about to leave but she stopped in her tracks when she heard Hana shouting, "I told you everything! I-I promised! You have to let me go! Y-you have to keep your promise!"

    A chuckle was heard from Shi Enxi. She slightly turned, glancing at the woman in the bed. "I did say that I will think about it but I never said yes to what you want." She smirked. "Don''t worry, I won''t be seeing you or your shadow ever again since you''re going to prison."

    With that, Shi Enxi left the room, ignoring Hana''s cries.

    ...

    The moment Shi Enxi went out of the room, she took out the pen recorder from her pocket and gave it to the man who was leaning against the wall, waiting for her.

    "You took your time." Lu Mello said, looking at the pen she gave him.

    "I don''t want Qiao Nuan''s ghost to haunt me, blaming me for not avenging her death." Her gaze landed on the two security guards who were assigned to guard the room, standing and waiting at the end of the hall.

    Lu Mello made the two men leave since he didn''t want them to hear anything from the room. The room was not totally soundproof because of the door. Small muffled screams escaped earlier but it was only until the place Lu Mello was standing which was by the door.

    "Also, I have the name of her partner. You can go and catch him now."

    "That''s not my job anymore. It''s the police''s job to catch him." He took off his coat and placed it around his wife''s shoulders before they began walking down the hall.

    "And the recorder?"

    "We can pass by the station and give it to them."

    "Can we have our dinner first? I''m hungry."

    "If my wife wants to eat first then we shall eat."

    Just then, as the couple passed by a male nurse, Shi Enxi came to a stop and ended looking back. The male nurse was heading towards Hana''s room.

    "What is it?" Lu Mello asked, looking at his wife.

    "Are you thinking what I''m thinking right now?"

    Lu Mello blinked a few times, "Uh... How should I know?"

    Shi Enxi turned to her husband with a deathly glare.

    "What? It''s not like I have the ability to read your mind..." He quickly said in his defense.

    "..." She blushed and pursed her lips out of embarrassment, "Then why don''t you go and get one now?" She huffed and began walking back to Hana''s room just to make sure about the thought that entered her mind.

    "Wait, Enxi." He followed behind her. "Did you think that nurse could be Hana''s partner?"

    "What else? We don''t know what he looks like right now. All I know is that her partner is a guy so every man right now is suspicious."

    "Not every." Lu Mello corrected.

    Shi Enxi rolled her eyes, "Right. Not you. Not the police. Not your men."

    He chuckled as he caught up to her and began walking beside her again. "Were you able to get his name?"

    "Yes. His name is Jin Bolin."
