Chapter 90: Cleanup
Jiang Xue did not answer Shen Xi’s question. Instead, she hurriedly went to bed and sent a message to Peach on her phone: [ Send me the video, and I’ll pay you the rest. ]
Tao Zi’s phone buzzed. However, it was not Tao Zi who received the message, but Xue Li, Guan Lei’s assistant.
Xue Li read the message and showed it to Guan Lei.
Earlier that morning, Guan Lei called Xue Li and instructed her to meet him in the ladies’ toilet. As soon as she entered, she saw a plump girl curled up in a corner with blood caking her face. Six girls stood around her, each facing the wall.
Her boss, Young Master Guan, leaned against the door to the ladies toilet. Had she not known better, she would have thought the Young Master was a pervert. It was a very strange image.
Guan Lei read the message and returned the phone to Xue Li. "I want to know who the owner of this number is."
"Yes," Xue Li replied. "I’ve interrogated the person nicknamed Peach. She does not know who paid for her services. She was asked to take a video of Shen Xi naked and beaten. The sum for services rendered is 50,000 yuan, and the deposit was 10,000 yuan in cash. The remaining 40,000 yuan would be paid when the video was delivered."
Guan Lei nodded, gesturing for Xue Li to continue. "Though the person nicknamed Peach is covered in blood, she has not sustained any serious injuries. Miss Shen’s goal was not to inflict serious injury but to make her bleed. Peach has a few chipped teeth and numerous surface wounds. She probably fainted from the fright induced by minor blood loss; hence, it looks more serious than it is."
