Chapter 10 - Chapter 9

As they dug deeper, they discovered a shocking connection between Henry Shen's business dealings and a powerful organized crime syndicate. It seemed that Henry Shen had been using his company as a front to launder money for the syndicate, and Jingyi had been helping him every step of the way.

Xiaoyu's eyes widened in horror as she realized the true extent of her family's corruption. She had always known that they were ruthless, but she had never imagined that they were involved with organized crime.

"Alexander, we have to go to the police," she said, her voice shaking with urgency.

Alexander nodded, his face grim. "I agree," he said. "But we need to be careful. We can't trust anyone."

Xiaoyu nodded, her mind racing with the implications. She knew that they were taking a huge risk by going up against the syndicate, but she also knew that they had no choice.

As they prepared to go to the police, Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. She knew that they were in grave danger, and that their lives would never be the same again.

But she also knew that they had to do what was right. They had to bring her family's enemies to justice, no matter the cost.

Xiaoyu and Alexander arrived at the police station, their hearts racing with anticipation. They were greeted by a detective who listened intently as they laid out their evidence.

As they spoke, Xiaoyu could see the detective's expression change from skepticism to shock. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"You're telling me that Henry Shen, one of the most respected businessmen in the city, is involved with organized crime?" he asked, his voice incredulous.

Xiaoyu nodded. "Yes, that's exactly what we're saying. And we have the evidence to prove it."

The detective leaned forward, his eyes locked onto hers. "I believe you," he said. "But we need to be careful. We can't take on the syndicate alone."

Xiaoyu nodded, her heart pounding in her chest. She knew that they were in over their heads, but she also knew that they had to see this through.

The detective stood up, his face grim. "I'll assign a team to investigate," he said. "But in the meantime, I need you both to go into protective custody."

Xiaoyu hesitated, unsure of what to do. But Alexander nodded, his eyes locked onto hers.

"We have no choice," he said. "We have to trust the police."

Xiaoyu nodded, her heart heavy with fear. She knew that they were taking a huge risk, but she also knew that they had no other choice.

As they left the police station, Xiaoyu couldn't help but wonder what lay ahead. Would they be able to bring her family's enemies to justice, or would they become the syndicate's next victims?
