Qiao Yiyi sat up in a daze. Then she walked out of her room and looked down.
As a professional thief, she was especially sensitive to her surroundings.
The noise didn’t seem to come from the police, who would have surrounded her in silence. Hence, whoever it was was likely not after her.
As the thought crossed her mind, Liang Liang hollered outside, “Lu Nanze, come out here! You bastard! You said you were accompanying me for a drink, but you stood me up! I waited till now!”
Qiao Yiyi glanced at her cell phone. It was 2 a.m.
So when Lu Nanze had mentioned at the villa that he was going out to meet someone, that eventually hadn’t happened?!
In that case, Liang Liang berating the man wasn’t unreasonable.
She couldn’t help having the evil thought that, if the two men were to fall out, perhaps she might have something to gain from it?
At this point, Lu Nanze’s bedroom door swung open. He made his way out slowly in his nightgown, looking like he had just woken up. He glanced downstairs and instructed the butler, “Take him to the cellar, let him drink as he pleases.”
After saying this, he turned and went back into his room.
The people downstairs stood there, stumped, looking at each other. Finally, Liang Liang spoke, “Didn’t you hear that? Take me to the cellar!”
The man looked like the type who could hold more than a few drinks. Hence, even though he had been drinking at the bar all night, and looked as though he was quite drunk, he was in fact still sober.
He lifted his head to look upstairs and then shouted, “Lu Nanze, hurry up! Det dressed and accompany me for a drink!”
After saying that, he turned and staggered towards the cellar.
Qiao Yiyi stood outside her bedroom, observing the situation. After a while, Lu Nanze emerged all dressed and walked to the cellar as well.
It looked like Liang Liang was in a bad mood.
Could he have had a fight with Bai Anan?
She couldn’t help thinking scornfully that a person like him would never be happy trying to get along with Bai Anan.
It was better that they argued now.
Suddenly, feeling a little gleeful, she got back into bed, closed her eyes and drifted back to sleep.
–
A dreamless night.
Early next morning, upon waking up, Qiao Yiyi heard a voice outside the door. It was Lu Nanze. “I don’t wish to be disturbed. Let me sleep for a while. Send Liang Liang to the guest room.”
The butler acknowledged this.
Then Lu Nanze went to his bedroom and shut the door behind him.
It sounded like he was going to sleep.
After a night of drinking and only then going to sleep, it was almost certain that he would be knocked out for the rest of the day.
Qiao Yiyi sighed in relief.
Since this was the case, she was free to roam around for a bit.
Although she was injured, she still needed to move her body and exercise a little. She could rot from being kept up in the house all day.
Except that, when Qiao Yiyi opened the door, she was surprised to see… Who the hell was this standing right before her door?!
Liang Liang stood before her, his face flushed from the alcohol and his eyes bloodshot.
At this point, his eyes were no longer bright and clear. Instead, there was something sentimental behind that look.
When he saw Qiao Yiyi, tears started to roll down his face as he said, “Sister-in-law, she’s dead.”
Qiao Yiyi: …!!
What was that?
Who was the “she” he was referring to?
Bai Anan?
Was Bai Anan dead?!
Otherwise, why would the man be so sad?!
