Song Xuanhe was woken up by the soft sound of his alarm and the ringing of his phone. Before he was able to vent his anger from having been woken up, he received some news from Song Xuanlin: Song Jiabao had been sent to rehab.

The fog cleared from his brain, and he sat up. His voice was a little hoarse. "Rehab? Why not prison?"

"The police suspect Song Jiabao and Zhou Rong of dealing and using. This morning, Song Jiabao and Zhou Rong showed symptoms of using. However, they had been in the detention centre since last night. No one else entered. Although the police don't know what kind of drug it is to have such a long latency period, it's already been confirmed that they took drugs."

Song Xuanhe's brows gradually furrowed as he listened to Song Xuanlin's steady voice. Even ignoring the fact that it was impossible for Zhou Rong and Song Jiabao to have dealt and used drugs considering their family circumstances, it was still really weird for them to have a drug addiction.

Song Xuanhe had assigned someone to keep an eye on Zhou Rong ever since the latter had secretly come back to the country. He had observed every single one of Zhou Rong's actions leading up to this event. Therefore, he knew quite a bit about Zhou Rong.

Back then, the person who had watched Zhou Rong had not reported any issues. Zhou Rong had rarely left his hotel. Aside from occasionally going out to eat, he had spent the rest of his time at the hotel reading, working out, or resting. His schedule had been very regular, and he had stuck to it strictly.

Based on this, Song Xuanhe could tell that Zhou Rong was a very prudent and self-disciplined person. The probability that someone like this would do drugs was close to zero.

But, Song Xuanlin wouldn't take a shot in the dark. His new sources were also reliable. So, Song Xuanhe trusted him.

That meant that it was very suspicious for the two of them to suddenly show symptoms of drug use.

Moreover, Song Xuanhe clearly remembered that Zhou Rong had only had one dose of that new drug. He was certain of it.

Back then, his contact had discovered that Zhou Rong had brought back a fountain pen box with him. Inside that box had been the new drug. After that, the contact had checked many times whether Zhou Rong had any other doses on him. After Song Xuanhe had gotten an identical box made—the only difference being that this one had a secret compartment—he had made sure to confirm this fact once more.

It was precisely because of this that Song Xuanhe had been able to deal with Zhou Rong so easily. It was because he knew that Zhou Rong hadn't had any other trump cards.

So, where did these new doses come from? It couldn't be the one that the police had taken as evidence, could it?

But in any case, it didn't concern him any longer.

Song Xuanhe only mulled over this for a few seconds before his furrowed eyebrows smoothed out. He yawned and then laid back down. He sighed a bit absent-mindedly, "I hadn't thought they did drugs."

Song Xuanhe chuckled. In a relaxed tone, he said, "Song Jiabao had teamed up with Zhou Rong to try and force me to take drugs yesterday. Wei shao, Guan shao, and Zhou Nan brought a team of officers to come save me. Aren't they afraid of me going to testify against them because of their wrongful accusations?"

"'Take' isn't quite the right word for it," Song Xuanhe said with a smile, "There was a syringe involved. I heard that just one use will cause a lifetime addiction."

Song Xuanlin's expression darkened. The cries downstairs intermittently echoed in his ear. He opened the door and said, "Don't come home for the next two days. Don't come to the office either. I'll contact you again once I've settled everything."
