After Ma Tianqing left, he said on the phone that he needed to return home urgently due to family matters, but he would certainly seek revenge, and asked him to keep an eye out. Ma Tianqing seemed to be unconcerned about the background of Bai, only upset because his subordinates were useless and got beaten. Even if Bai has a background, he’s in Huaxia, ten thousand miles away from me, and we don’t have any entangled interests, so why should I fear his background! Mr. Berman looked at Bai Xiaosheng, and seeing Bai Xiaosheng looking at him, suddenly sneered coldly, "Young man, we finally meet. You caused a scene at my manor, yet I, the host, didn’t get to see you, what a pity!" Bai Xiaosheng, faced with Berman’s enthusiastic gaze, looked uninterested and glanced at him, "I have absolutely no interest in meeting Mr. Berman, whether back then or now! This time, I mainly want to seek advice from Mr. Henry and Mr. Gian..." Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze brushed past Berman and fell on the faces of those two, frankly stating, "You arbitrarily detained my friend and sealed his laboratory, what’s the reason!" Seeing Bai Xiaosheng seemingly intent on ignoring him, Berman’s expression immediately darkened. Henry and Gian, confronted directly by Bai Xiaosheng, were also surprised that Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t speaking with Berman but went straight to them. "We came completely according to the regulations; there isn’t any issue with any of the procedures," Henry laughed. "We do not accept the accusation of ’arbitrary.’ Furthermore, we heard that someone colluded with Lai Yin and others, secretly set up a lab, and is suspected of infringing on the achievements of Vice President Logan of the Haru Medical College. That person’s surname is Bai, it must be you. So please cooperate with our investigation!" Gian responded coldly. They haven’t even sought him yet! This young man from Huaxia, where does he get the courage to come here and question! "The real situation, if you really want to investigate, you could clarify in half a day. However, you turn a blind eye, detain my friend under the guise of investigation procedures. Is this what you call acting with a clear conscience? Can I assume you’re targeting me and my friend together with Mr. Berman?" Bai Xiaosheng stated frankly. The two shared a glance and shrugged, plainly indicating that if you want to think that way, go ahead, we neither confirm nor deny it! "I really didn’t expect you to be so arrogant! Just lay it all out right away!" Berman looked at Bai Xiaosheng and grinned viciously, candidly asserting, "Yes, I am indeed targeting you. There’s no need for doubt about that! If you hadn’t come, I would have dealt with Lai Yin and the others for sure! Now that you’ve appeared, you should forget about leaving! Soon, the investigation procedures against you will commence! Rather than worrying about Lai Yin and the others, you’d better worry about yourself, worry about the accusations you might face!" Berman wasn’t afraid of being recorded by Bai Xiaosheng because his words contained no "issues"; a Justice of the Peace is meant to combat all problematic figures, targeting those with issues. Thus explained, it makes sense anywhere. Berman sneered, looking at Bai Xiaosheng, wondering what else he would do. Bai Xiaosheng lifted his gaze to Berman, his eyes unmoved. Under their gaze, the room’s atmosphere seemed to be filled with the scent of gunpowder, ready to explode at the slightest trigger. "I can hire the best European lawyers, the finest private investigation institutions, and let the mainstream media focus on this, aren’t you afraid of causing a huge scene?" Bai Xiaosheng voiced again, his tone filled with a hint of threat. Henry and Gian exchanged glances without speaking, looking instead at Berman to see what he would say. Berman, being publicly threatened by Bai Xiaosheng, couldn’t possibly back down; if he recoiled from a few sentences, Henry and Gian wouldn’t support his bid for mayor? Besides, when it comes to spending money, he’s truly unafraid. "You want to spend money to counter this investigation? Great, I, Berman, am never short on money! Let’s have a mutual spend-off then!" Berman grinned savagely, "However, after battling for a year or so, even if you win, Lai Yin and the others will be done for! You better think it through!" Upon hearing Berman’s words, Henry and Gian both sneered, looking at Bai Xiaosheng. Bai Xiaosheng’s words were mainly directed at Henry and Gian. If Berman was absent, he might have succeeded, but with Berman disrupting, failure became inevitable. Bai Xiaosheng nodded, said nothing, and walked out, saying calmly, "Then I have nothing more to say." Berman initially thought Bai Xiaosheng would escalate the threat, but unexpectedly, the opponent simply died down? It puzzled him. Henry and Gian were also surprised by Bai Xiaosheng’s sudden change in demeanor, feeling it was illogical and bewildering. However, Henry stepped forward to block Bai Xiaosheng and directly said, "Mr. Bai, since you are in the city, I hope you won’t leave on your own before the investigation order comes down, otherwise, don’t blame us..." "Don’t worry, I’m not leaving until the matter is resolved!" Bai Xiaosheng looked at him calmly, then turned his gaze to Berman and Gian, solemnly declaring, "I’m awaiting your investigation order!" Berman looked at Bai Xiaosheng, eyes fierce. Gian’s face was also dark. "Can I leave now?" Bai Xiaosheng turned back, looking at Henry calmly. Henry frowned before stepping aside. Bai Xiaosheng walked straight out. Outside the door, Grace waited anxiously, seeing the door open and Bai Xiaosheng walking out with a cold demeanor, she hurried to meet him. Grace also saw the unfriendly expressions of the three inside and Bai Xiaosheng’s lack of joy, feeling her heart sink. Bai Xiaosheng walked out silently, and Grace hurriedly followed. Walking a bit further, Grace noticed Bai Xiaosheng’s pace quickening and couldn’t help but ask, "No breakthrough? Where are we going now?"
