His Genius Wife is a Superstar

ShaWn had already spread the word about Jin Liwei and Lu Zihao's version of events online, using the Black Stars to fuel the fire to make it spread even further. In fact, all ShaWn members signed up as Black Stars members after being repeatedly pestered by Bacon. They joined the Slippers Army as per Bacon's forceful suggestion. Their addition to the notorious troll unit made the Slippers Army even more despicable but also more efficient and a total nightmare to anyone who still dared to bash Iris Long online.

With ShaWn supercharging the entire Black Stars, almost every netizen in the country became aware of what Rose Young did to Jin Liwei tonight. The media swarmed outside the hotel in no time to confirm whether the details being circulated online were true or merely rumours. 

"Yes, it's true that Rose Young, that evil madwoman, schemed against President Jin tonight, planning to violate him," a furious Xu Tian ranted in front of the reporters. His eyes were bloodshot as if he was Jin Liwei's aggrieved wife and not Iris Long. "What kind of woman does that immoral thing to a married man?! It's a good thing, no, an absolutely blessed thing, that President Jin managed to wake up and defend himself before it was too late!"

"Did CEO Jin really escape before Rose Young laid her hands on him?" a reporter asked all of a sudden. "Perhaps…something already happened and—"

"What's your name and which media company sent you?" Jin Liwei asked, his tone cold and threatening. "You'll hear from my lawyer for slander."

Without waiting for the reporter's response or that of the others, Jin Liwei urged his bodyguards to lead him out of the crowd faster with one silent look. Now that his purpose of showing off his injuries to the media was fulfilled, he didn't want to stay with these vultures any longer.

He wanted, no, he needed to find his wife and make sure that she was alright as soon as possible. Not hearing anything about her and their AI children was worrying him to no end.

Lu Zihao watched a handcuffed Rose Young like a hawk as the police escorted the nympho into a waiting police car. She was now wearing a plain outfit of jeans and a light coat that didn't do anything to protect her from the cold. The clothes looked new but far from the stylish and expensive outfit that she wore earlier. Her clothes were left in the crime scene and collected as part of the investigation. Hence, the police provided her with regular clothes bought from a nearby department store.

Rose Young shivered from the cold while camera flashes and the reporters' shouted questions rained down on her. Her shoulders were slumped, making her look smaller and frail, as if she was a little lamb being led to slaughter. If nobody knew what kind of immoral thing she did tonight, they would certainly pity her based on her current miserable appearance.

She didn't answer any questions the reporters threw at her and just looked down with a blank expression. The officers holding her on both sides were the female and male partners who interrogated her earlier. The kind smile was now gone from the female officer's face, replaced by the same stern expression on his male partner.

Leading them was the Chief of Police who stopped in front of the reporters to give a succinct summary of the case so far and even answered a couple of questions before leaving with the rest of the police to the nearest station.

"Nab Rose Young on the road," Lu Zihao ordered his subordinates through their earpiece channel. "Make it look like she was rescued by her family. We'll drag the entire Youngs down with her."

"Roger, Boss Hao!"

Lu Zihao narrowed his eyes as the reporters followed the police cars, creating some sort of a grand motorcade. He couldn't help but curse that the situation became much more difficult for Shadow Winds to complete tonight's mission.

It was the fault of the Chief of Police! His unexpected arrival at the hotel tonight meant more media attention and closer scrutiny in the case so soon.

Some of the police dogs and their handlers remained at the hotel to patrol with the other regular officers under the order of their Police Chief. Despite Lu Zihao's irritation at the man for forcing him to change the details of tonight's plan, making it harder for all of them, Lu Zihao still admitted that the Chief indeed deserved his title as the police force's leader.

The man was thorough, careful, and obviously prepared for possible unforeseen developments in cases in which he was in charge. Bringing police dogs to a case of this nature wasn't common but it was obviously the Chief of Police's idea. He should have a strong intuition and this made the Chief of Police a difficult man to deal with, Lu Zihao judged.

"Be alert for possible unmarked police reinforcements along the way," Lu Zihao reminded his subordinates.

The police station was only about ten minutes away by car. Since Rose Young was being escorted in what was basically a police motorcade, civilian vehicles were giving way to the police cars, so they could arrive sooner than ten minutes.

Time was of the essence.

Lu Zihao knew that it would be many times harder for Shadow Winds to take Rose Young once she entered the police station especially under the nose of the Chief of Police. At least, if they snatched her on the road, they would have more options to deal with the police than if they did it in the police's own territory.

"Boss Hao, we have Jenny Tseng, Rose Young's male cousin named Luke, and an additional male," a subordinate reported to Lu Zihao.

"Bring them to our headquarters."

"Roger, Boss Hao!"

"Are they awake?"

"No, boss. We made them unconscious."

"Good. How about the other accomplices?"

"They escaped using a van but another team is already on their tail." The subordinate paused. "Boss Hao, someone blocked the team chasing after the accomplices. They're being rescued!"
