Before Shi He could speak, Wen Xiu took the initiative to explain herself in embarrassment. “I’m Shi Man’s good friend!”
Her words were less confident because she did not think that Shi Man treated her as a friend.
Wen Xiu could not help but feel a little depressed. She could not tell if this depression was because of Shi Man or for something else.
Lin Yue smiled and nodded at her as a greeting. Then, she followed Shi He out of the garage slowly.
Wen Xiu watched the two of them leave side by side in a daze and pursed her thin lips silently.
Shi He was halfway there when he suddenly thought of something. He turned to look at Wen Xiu and smiled politely. “Do you want to come to the house to sit? Actually, Mother has already noticed you.”
Wen Xiu opened her mouth in disbelief. Before she could refuse, she suddenly met Lin Yue’s teasing gaze. The words that were about to come out of her mouth hurriedly turned into agreement.
Hence, under the strange atmosphere of the three of them, Wen Xiu automatically fell behind the two of them and followed behind awkwardly to the Shi family as a guest.
Shi Man drove to the Immaculate base. Today was the first day of the second stage of drug rehabilitation. She had to be present to check the situation.
Some time ago, the drugs for detoxification on the market were priceless. The authorities were also preparing intensively. The merchants with the drugs tried to earn a sum of money from the country’s disaster. They raised the price of the drugs and waited for an opportunity to scam a large sum of money from the government and people.
Fortunately, Yi Zheng took action. He used the Yi family’s power to buy a large number of medicinal herbs from the country and then entered them into the market at a low price. Shi Man and Yi Zheng would secretly deal with anyone who raised the price of the medicinal herbs and teach those unscrupulous medicine merchants a lesson.
It was precisely because of this that the drug-stained people in G City were under good control.
Of course, there was no lack of people who took advantage of the situation.
After Shi Man treated the Immaculate people, she went straight to deal with the few drug users who were controlled by Sean and the others in the nightclub.
“Tell me, where did you get the drugs?” Shi Man sat on the sofa with her legs crossed. The lights of the nightclub were intertwined, making it difficult to tell her expression.
However, Sean, who was standing at the side with his head lowered, knew that his boss was definitely not in a good mood.
The men who were forced to kneel on the ground with their hands behind their backs glared at her indignantly. “What I buy has nothing to do with you, right? What right do you have to arrest me? Are you the police?”
Shi Man gave Sean a look.
Sean immediately understood. He walked forward and grabbed the person’s hair fiercely, wanting to drag him to the corner of the coffee table.
That person gritted his teeth in pain as his hair was grabbed. Beads of sweat fell from his forehead to the ground, and his voice became weaker. “No, no, no. Big Brother, Big Sister, I’ve touched this thing for many years, but I’ve never sold it. 1 use it for myself. Let me go. I’ve never done anything evil!”
“You’re already on drugs, yet you still say that you didn’t do anything wrong!” Sean pulled his hair forcefully and forced him to look up. He punched him hard in the face.
That person felt his teeth loosen.
The others looked at their aggressive posture and then at the young girl sitting at the head of the table who was calmly watching all of this. They no longer dared to treat her as an ordinary young lady. They hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. “Let us go. We really don’t know anything!”
Sean threw away the man in his hand as if he was throwing away trash. He turned to grab the next man whose face was as pale as paper. He grabbed his collar and asked angrily, “My boss wants to ask you where the drugs came from!”
That person trembled and could not speak. In his panic, he even bit his tongue.
Seeing that Sean was about to punch him again, he quickly stammered, “Don’t hit me, Big Brother, I’ll say it! These drugs came from Brother Liang! He’s been selling this for many years! It’s in the casino in the East District! You can look for him there!”
Sean let go in disgust. After taking the handkerchief from Lin Si and wiping his hand, he threw the handkerchief at the person. He looked at Shi Man with a solemn expression and said, “Boss, should we bring people to raid that bastard’s casino?”
Shi Man looked at the few people on the ground calmly and sneered. Her voice was casual but carried an aura that could not be ignored. “I’ll give you two choices. One, I can help you quit drugs for free, provided you work for me. Two, I’ll send you to the police station and spread the news that you betrayed the seller. Choose.”
“I choose One!” The person felt limp after being pulled by Sean’s handkerchief. Only then did he realize that the girl’s light words were the most intimidating. He quickly chose the former!
In fact, they also wanted to quit this thing!
They just couldn’t make up their mind to enter rehabilitation!
Because of this thing, he was now separated from his wife. If he could really quit, he was willing to try!
The others naturally did not dare to have any objections. Shi Man gestured to Lin Si to bring these people to a separate place to lock them up. She took out the pistol in her boot and said, “Bring our guys to the casino..”
