Chapter 243 - The Drug Lord

Xie Yuansheng was sitting down next to Ru Shishi when his phone started ringing. He took it out from his coat and picked the call, as he looked at her with hatred in his eyes. 

"Boss, we have Hung Jia."

"Good," he replied and disconnected the call. 

Ru Shishi was lying on the ground, her body unable to move after the Taser effect. The policemen picked her up and made her sit in the police van. They took her away. Just before putting her behind the bars, she was checked by the doctor who declared that she was pregnant. Ru Shishi was sent to prison, pregnant and addicted to drugs. 

Hung Jia had been on police radar from a long time for suspiciously selling drugs. The news about the rave party that was leaked was actually leaked by Hung Jia in order to detract attention from a certain fact. That night he had used Ru Shishi for his personal gains by offering her to the producer who had asked him for Ru Shishi in exchange for a large amount of money. He grabbed the money and then took Ru Shishi to the room. 

After that he left with Ru Shishi and leaked the news to the media. It was a huge scandal. The producer was caught. No one could find as to who had leaked the information about the rave party. 

On the second day after the rave party, Hung Jia received a call from his men that people from The Crocodile organization were looking for him. 

Hung Jia was in fact a drug lord who was selling highly addictive and eventually deadly drugs that were manufactured in his factory in a remote location in his village. He used to supply drugs to the city youth and was on police radar for a long time. 

When the scandal broke, Xie Yuansheng sent his men to watch Ru Shishi. While doing so they reported that Hung Jia had run away from his home. He had instructed them to find him. They had chased him to his village. They found him hiding in his factory. There was an intense battle in which his factory was completely destroyed by Xie Yuansheng's men. When Hung Jia was caught on the fourth day, he was very injured and in a pathetic condition. 

He was brought to the city that night in that condition. Xie Yuansheng had asked his men to hand him over to the police and to leak the news to the media. 

Next day there was a huge front-page article "A Famous Actor Drug Lord Caught". There were photographs of Hung Jia looking bloodied, with a swollen face. He was in handcuffs being taken by the police. 

Yet another news was published on the side, "C-Grade Actress Ru Shishi Pregnant with Hung Jia's Child". The article further read that she had been caught in her apartment for hiding a stash of drugs and an illegal gun was also found in her possession. Ru Shishi and Hung Jia were both into selling drugs to the people in the film industry. 

This was the news that caught Feng Xinying's attention and when she read the newspaper on the fifth day morning. Goose bumps lined her skin. She looked at Xie Yuansheng, who was still sleeping. She wanted to tell him about the news. She was so excited that she went to his bed with the newspaper and wanted to wake him up but when she saw that he was sleeping peacefully, she didn't disturb him. Instead she sat on the bed and looked at him sleeping under the blanket like a koala. On an impulse, she shifted towards him and looked at his handsome face. She brought her knuckles on his face and lightly brushed his white skin. Immediately she had a warm feeling in her heart. She had ignored him for so long and yet he had endured her silence. Even she had started feeling guilty about it. He didn't wake up because he was so tired. Feng Xinying covered him with the blanket nicely and left. 

Xie Yuansheng woke up in the afternoon and the first thing that he did was to look around for Feng Xinying. He noticed that she was reading her script. He felt good. He tried to get up and sit. Feng Xinying noticed it and hurried to him. She helped him sit. In the next one hour, she helped him with changing clothes and taking a sponge bath. When he was ready, she served congee to him. Since his right shoulder was in the sling, she had been feeding him whenever he found it difficult. That afternoon after lunch, she sat on the opposite side of his bed to read her script while he rested. The movie schedule had been delayed a little and Lu Dao had asked her to work extra in order to finish it on time. He watched her for some time and then dozed off.   

Feng Xinying didn't realize when she had gone off to sleep right next to his feet. It had been so long that she had felt his warmth that she cuddled around his legs and slept like a baby. When she woke up in the evening, she found that he was still sleeping and even snoring.
