The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 516

Rong Dai glanced at the couple, her eyes profoundly deep.

"Mr. Huo Busi, I'd like to handle this matter personally."

The grievance between her and Xin Ziqing was theirs alone, she could not leave it to others.

Although rejected, Huo Busi was not the least bit displeased, but his gaze towards the couple was extremely cold.

The terrified couple shivered as they looked at Rong Dai, their eyes full of panic and pleading.

"Madam, I truly did not know you were Mr. Huo Busi's esteemed guest..."

The woman anxiously tried to explain.

Although Rong Dai was unclear just how frightening Huo Busi's status actually was, the fact that Shaoting had introduced her to him meant this man's capabilities were acknowledged.

She interrupted the woman's words: "As I already said earlier, both myself and this gentleman are victims in this matter."

"All that is needed is for the gentleman to cooperate with our investigation to make clear what happened, then everyone can be at ease."

They were overseas, where many matters were not easily handled.

Avoiding conflict with these people was best, she understood well the troubles stirred up by petty characters.

"Of course, no problem!"

The couple responded almost in unison!

Rong Dai pressed her lips together without replying, her gaze on the heavily crammed room of thugs.

Huo Busi was adept at reading subtle cues. With but a look, he signaled all but two bodyguards to leave.

Seeing this, the foreign woman also quickly dismissed her own people.

Rong Dai beckoned for those remaining to sit, but the couple took one look at Huo Busi and vehemently shook their heads, refusing while still quivering in fear.

"Very well, whatever makes you comfortable."

Rong Dai nodded, sitting casually upon the sofa. Her eyes apologetically met Huo Busi's: "I'm afraid I must trouble you for some of your resting time."

Huo Busi smiled gently and courteously. "It is my honor to be of assistance, Madam."

He too sat down, subtly reining in his imposing aura.

Rong Dai dispensed with superfluous chat and fluently questioned the lawyer Zong Che had called over.

The lawyer respectfully and patiently answered her queries. When she was done, Rong Dai finally regarded the foreign man, thinking of the video's content, her eyes grew piercingly cold!

The foreign man wept woefully, quaking in fright without daring to meet her eyes.

"To ensure impartiality, our conversation will be filmed and recorded. Does either of you have any objections?"

The cowed couple swiftly shook their heads!

Zong Che switched on his phone camera while the lawyer readied his voice recorder.

Rong Dai meticulously asked about the people the man had interacted with that night, but truthfully it was of little use.

Her probing yielded scant gains. Rong Dai was not particularly discouraged by this, as such methods were simply Xin Ziqing's usual style.

This was something she really should study more herself.

"No further questions. Additionally, I will need to keep the gentleman's clothing, along with some of his hair. I will provide compensation."

Earlier her head had throbbed in agony, but her sense of smell was unaffected.

When she had opened the door, it was the overpowering scent clinging to this man that had sapped her strength.

In her past life, Xin Ziqing was a master of dosing drugs, and the modern age offered an even wider selection.

"Of course, take whatever you need! Is this amount sufficient?"

The foreign woman only longed to swiftly flee the room. As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately yanked out several of her husband's hairs.

The man winced in pain but dared not utter a word.

Rong Dai signaled to Zong Che to bag the items.

"Also, until this matter is resolved, I expect you both to remain silent and not attempt escaping from here."

"This way, all of us will remain safest. Understand?"

Having handled things, Rong Dai looked to the couple, her voice calm but carrying undeniable authority.

The pathetic couple dared not refuse, willing even to knock their heads to the floor to acquiesce her!
