Chapter 831: Chapter 831: All Plucked Out

"Don’t be afraid... I will find Xiaocong and protect Xiaotian... You have to believe me..."

"Mm... I believe you."

Under his gentle embrace and kiss, Lin Xinlan’s heart gradually calmed down and she no longer felt so trembled and scared.

Suddenly, the Maternity Matron, who had been knocked out, groaned and woke up. Seeing both Rong Shaoze and Lin Xinlan, she asked in surprise and doubt, "Mr. Rong, Mrs. Rong, did something just happen?"

Rong Shaoze said lightly, "A thief came in just now, and you were knocked out by him. But I happened to come in, and when he saw me, he ran away. Luckily, you and Xiaotian are fine. This time, you protected Xiaotian well, so your salary will double from now on."

"Ah?!" The Maternity Matron opened her mouth wide, completely unable to digest what he said.

Lin Xinlan smiled, "You’ve worked hard, just stay here and rest. There’s someone guarding outside, no one will break in again."

After saying this, she and Rong Shaoze walked out together, leaving the dumbfounded Maternity Matron, who still hadn’t regained her composure.

The hall outside was very lively, and they had no idea about the turmoil in the resting room just now.

Rong’s mother came forward to blame them when she saw them come out, "Why are you just coming out now? You are the hosts, leaving the guests here like this, what kind of manners is that."

Rong Shaoze smiled faintly, "Mom, aren’t we here now?"

The banquet continued.

The star of the night was little Rong Tianqi, who had just turned one month old.

Rong Shaoze held his tiny body in front of the guests, pressing his small feet onto the ink pad to leave two footprints, then pressing his small hands to leave handprints, and then asked someone to fire it and seal it in crystal.

It was meant to be a keepsake for his one-month celebration.

Originally, such keepsakes usually involve both the adults and the child making the imprints.

But doing so would make it seem like this family had only two adults and one child, like a happy family of three.

Lin Xinlan did not want to exclude Xiaocong, nor did she want Xiaocong to feel wronged, so she told Rong Shaoze to have only Xiaotian make the handprints and footprints.

Rong Shaoze naturally agreed to her words.

In a dark basement, a man was covered in wounds, lying weakly on the ground, unable to muster the strength to stand.

The door opened, and Rong Shaoze walked in leisurely, his shiny black shoes stopping beside the man.

Rong Shaoze looked down at him condescendingly, his eyes cold and merciless.

The man on the ground stared with hollow eyes, gasping for breath.

"I told you, if you don’t tell the truth, I will make you regret it. How is it now? Do you regret it?" he asked indifferently.

The man on the ground mumbled a few sounds, his voice unclear.

To prevent him from committing suicide, all his teeth had been pulled out, causing drool to flow continuously and his words to be muffled.

Rong Shaoze kicked him and said lightly, "Speak clearly."

"I... even if I die... I won’t... talk..."

Rong Shaoze listened and nodded slightly, his expression indifferent.

"You won’t talk even if you die, is that it? Then I will let you die."

Fear flashed briefly in the man’s eyes.

Rong Shaoze asked no more questions. People like him were specially trained. No matter how harshly you torture them or hypnotize them, they won’t tell the truth.

Only Tao Hua could handle him.

In fact, compared to Tao Hua, Rong Shaoze was considered merciful.

Tao Hua walked in with a faint smile, and began with a few harsh kicks to the man.
