Chapter 183: Emergency Fund
This was because he was worried that Xinxin had begged Bai Qinghao for his sake.
“Sir, who was the one who issued the order to take care of me?” Fang Shaohua asked him urgently.
“There’s no harm in telling you this.” The prison guard did not hide it from him. “It was the prison head.”
Fang Shaohua released a sigh of relief. It was good as long as it was unrelated to Bai Qinghao.
He did not wish to owe a favour to anyone with the surname Bai.
He recalled that the lawyer handling his case was Ji Shaohong. After coming into prison, he had heard from other cellmates that Lawyer Ji was close friends with the prison head.
Xinxin had coincidentally hired Lawyer Ji. The man must have greeted the guards here on his behalf.
The prison guard said, “If there’s anything you need in the future, tell me. I’ll bring it here for you. Your sister, Fang Xinxin, deposited three hundred thousand dollars into your emergency fund. Even if you spend the remaining nine years of your sentence here, you’ll have sufficient money to enjoy life.”
Fang Shaohua never expected his third sister to be this considerate. She had even taken his daily living needs into account.
There was nothing one could not achieve here with money.
The prisoners, who could afford it, would even be allowed to smoke and eat lavishly in here. The poor and starving prisoners, on the other hand, could only pick up the used cigarette stubs from the ground to smoke secretly.
Anything was possible as long there was enough money in the emergency fund. Of course, the prices in here were ten times that of the prices outside.
For example, a packet of cigarettes that cost a dollar outside would be for ten dollars in here.
Their spending would be directly subtracted from their emergency funds.
Of course, this was not officially allowed. The people smuggling the things in here were shouldering the risks for them, and naturally, that made the goods more expensive.
Three hundred thousand… Xinxin had given him too much.
Fang Shaohua’s heart had been nearly barren for three years, but right now, it was filled with warm emotions. His gloomy life seemed to regain its light because of her…
…
After leaving the place, Lawyer Ji returned to his office while Fang Xinxin headed off to a private house located in an old street in the city centre.
After turning around several corners, she knocked on the door with a certain rhythm. A man around the age of forty opened the door. His appearance was mediocre. “Who are you looking for?”
“Everything will turn out for the best.” She answered with the code she knew.
The man sized her up for a moment. “Come in.”
It was extremely dark inside the private house. The curtains were drawn tightly despite it being broad daylight.
In her previous life, after her marriage, she had coincidentally heard Bai Qinghao’s conversation with his subordinates. He had mentioned an underground organisation: Hei Xiao.
This organisation was involved with both sides of the world. They were well-informed, organised and ruthless.
Be it looking for missing people, assassinations or creating various types of accidents… as long as one had sufficient money and offered a good sum, there was almost nothing Hei Xiao could not accomplish for them.
Furthermore, this organisation was extremely loyal and never disclosed information about the people who employed their services. However, they had one flaw. They only accepted clients introduced by people who knew them well. Furthermore, the boss accepted the task based purely on his whims.
The code that she shared earlier indicated she had been sent here by someone who knew them.
In the dark room, a blonde, handsome foreigner in his twenties sized her up. He addressed her in Chinese fluently. “Fang Xinxin, nineteen years old. The third young lady of the Fang Group. Bai Qinghao’s fiancée.” He would have never expected her to come knocking at their doors.
“Yes.” Fang Xinxin was not surprised by his words. After all, organisations that could be noticed by Bai Qinghao had to be very capable.
The blonde foreigner asked her in a straightforward manner. “What are you here for?”
Fang Xinxin recalled the moment from three years ago, when Bai Chenxi asked her out to have supper. At that time, in that crowded food street, she had bumped into someone and her phone had been stolen.
