Chapter 157: CH 157

Chapter 157 - "It's reasonable to assume that Luo Xiu had been kidnapped and killed." (2)

Just when she was reflecting upon herself painfully and tried her best to extract any useful information from her puddle-like brain, she heard rustling noises coming from the bed –

The thin blanket rolled around some and the man, with his eyes still closed, rolled to his side and continued to sleep soundly while facing her direction.

Perhaps because the alcohol had not completely retreated from her brain, Gu Nian stood there and stared for two extra seconds.

Her precious son was so good looking, she wanted to……

STOP.

Gu Nian recollected herself immediately.

She didn’t have time to think too much. She could only take the opportunity when her precious son was still asleep to glance around the room quickly with the light pouring in from the window.

She was able to locate her cellphone and her shoes above and below the night table. Gu Nian, picking up her stolen goods, no, criminal evidences, glanced over at the man who was sound asleep before she turned and quietly snuck over in the direction of the foyer with a guilty conscience.

The door handle was depressed with extreme cautiousness.

She pulled open a oh-so-narrow crack.

The girl inside the door agilely moved herself out into the hallway on the other side of the door and the door was closed oh-so-carefully. The spring that had been depressed bounced back into place.

BAP.

The digital lock was engaged automatically.

Gu Nian let out a huge sigh of relief. Hoping, she put on her heels and fled the crime scene behind her as fast she could.

At the same time, on the other side of the door.

In the half dim and half bright room, the man lying on the huge bed slowly opened up his eyes. No sleepiness could be spotted in his cold eyes.

Looking at the empty room in front of him, he lowered his eyes, chuckled, and sat up.

***

Gu Nian squatted outside the room assigned to the screenwriter team awkwardly and finally knocked on the door when she heard noises on the inside.

The door was opened up quickly after a couple seconds.

Jiang Xiaoqing was the one who opened the door. As soon as she saw that it was Gu Nian standing outside, she immediately threw herself at her. “Oooooh, Gu Nian, you are back finally! Yuanyuan and I struggled whether to go upstairs to save you when we woke up!”

“Save me?” The very listless Gu Nian looked up, dazed.

“Yeah. Didn’t you spend the night with Luo Xiu? We worried so much about you, especially when you were drunk. Ahem. Ahem!”

Gu Nian, “……”

Gu Nian finally recollected herself. She was just about to say something when she realized that she was standing in the hallway. She looked around and dragged Jiang Xiaoqing back into the room expressionlessly, closing the door behind her.

Qin Yuanyuan, who heard the noise, poked her head out of the bathroom. “You are back, Gu Nian?”

“Mmhmm.”

After responding to Qin Yuanyuan, Gu Nian turned and looked at the two of them solemnly. “You two saw me last night?”

Jiang Xiaoqing nodded, “Yes, we did.”

“Where did you see me?”

“In the elevator lobby. You seemed to be quite drunk. We chased after Luo Xiu as soon as he helped you out of the banquet hall.”

“And then what?” Tears welled up in Gu Nian’s eyes. “Had it not occurred to the two of you to try to save your friend who was about to commit a crime?”

Jiang Xiaoqing, “We tried. But when Luo Xiu asked you who the three of us were, all you remembered was your precious son.”

Qin Yuanyuan added salt to the wound. “You said you didn’t know us. And you said that particularly loud too.”

Jiang Xiaoqing, “She was right.”

Gu Nian, “……”

Jiang Xiaoqing, “And Luo Xiu wouldn’t let us bring you with us! He said he had a suit and insisted for you to go get some rest… wait, huh, why did you say earlier that you were about to commit a crime?”

“……”

Gu Nian let out a long sigh and, allowing her exhausted soul to leave her body, tossed herself inside the long couch.

Jiang Xiaoqing and Qin Yuanyuan exchanged a look with each other.
