Chapter 897: Jiang Jie Is in Trouble
“You promised to send me back. Don’t go back on your word.” The woman’s words were slurred. She was clearly as drunk as a dead dog.
Upon hearing this, the man hugging her agreed repeatedly, but his hand held the woman’s waist tightly.
Fang Yuqing narrowed her eyes and felt that something was wrong.
He had agreed to send him home, so why did they come to the hotel?
Fang Yuqing glanced at Lu Lingyu and realized that he was also staring at the three people in front of him. She looked thoughtful. Clearly, Lu Lingyu had also sensed something unusual.
The elevator reached the 16th floor before the three people in front left.
Before the door closed, Fang Yuqing watched as they left the elevator and walked towards a door at the other end of the corridor. It seemed like they were planning to get a room. A woman and two men… Fang Yuqing could almost predict what that woman would encounter tonight.
After the door closed, Fang Yuqing said to Lu Lingyu, “I think I know this woman.”
Lu Lingyu raised his eyebrows and asked her, “Who is it?”
“I can’t remember at the moment.” Fang Yuqing frowned and thought for a moment, but she still could not match the owner of this voice to someone she knew. She frowned tightly and asked Lu Lingyu, “Don’t you think those two men have ulterior motives?”
“This is picking up corpses.” Of course, picking up corpses did not really mean picking up corpses. It meant that some bad men specially squatted at the entrance of the bar to pick up some drunk women so that they could rape them.
Fang Yuqing had the same opinion as Lu Lingyu.
She was about to ask Lu Lingyu if he wanted to interfere in this matter when the elevator reached the 18th floor. Lu Lingyu said, “We’re here.” His words interrupted Fang Yuqing.
Lu Lingyu was the first to leave the elevator, and Fang Yuqing followed closely behind.
When they reached the door of the room, Fang Yuqing said, “Go in. I’ll stay at the door for a while before going back.” The reason why she couldn’t go down now was because she didn’t want to b.u.mp into Young Master Lin.
Lu Lingyu had already opened the door. Upon hearing this, he turned around and said to Fang Yusheng, “Stay here. I’ll sit inside for a while before leaving.” He could not let a girl return home alone in the middle of the night. The tragedy from many years ago could not happen again.
As she trusted Lu Lingyu’s character, Fang Yuqing did not reject him and entered the room.
This room was a lounge that Lu Lingyu had booked in advance. There was his own computer inside. After entering the room, Lu Lingyu used his computer to play games while Fang Yuqing read a book. The two of them did their own things and actually got along very well.
Fang Yuqing was always distracted when she read and was thinking about something.
Where had she seen that girl before?
Fang Yuqing flipped another page of the book. A girl’s face suddenly flashed across her mind. Then, a woman’s name blurted out—
“Jiang Jie!”
Fang Yuqing suddenly closed the book and stood up.
Lu Lingyu was playing PUBG when he saw Fang Yuqing suddenly stand up. He was a little surprised. “What’s wrong?” He took off his earphones and looked up at Fang Yuqing with a questioning gaze.
Fang Yuqing strode to Lu Lingyu’s side. She pulled Lu Lingyu up and brought him out.
“I remember who that girl is,” she said as she walked.
“Which girl?” Lu Lingyu followed Fang Yuqing to the door. He was still thinking about his game and did not think about Fang Yuqing’s ident.i.ty as a girl.
Fang Yuqing said, “The girl in the elevator.”
Only then did Lu Lingyu understand what she meant. He straightened his att.i.tude and asked Fang Yuqing, “Who is it?”
Fang Yuqing said, “It’s Jiang Jie.” Lu Lingyu frowned slightly and looked confused. His reaction was obvious that he did not know Jiang Jie. Fang Yuqing had no choice but to explain, “She’s Jiang Wei’s sister.”
Lu Lingyu pursed his lips. “You want me to care about the trivial matters of my love rival’s sister?” He snorted and said willfully, “No.”
Fang Yuqing softened her tone and begged, “I beg you to come with me.”
Lu Lingyu shook his head. “No.” He was not a gentleman.
If that girl was someone else’s sister, he might be willing to help. Jiang Wei was his love rival. He could have helped anyone, but he had to help his love rival?
Fang Yuqing looked at Lu Lingyu deeply before compromising. “Alright, even if you don’t go, I still have to go alone.” With that, she turned around and walked out. For a moment, Lu Lingyu’s gaze changed.
She knew that she might face danger if he went, but she still wanted to take the risk alone…
Are you kind by nature or do you care too much about Jiang Wei that you can’t bear to see his family get hurt?
Lu Lingyu was a little unhappy, but he was also a little envious.
Why was no one so devoted to him?
“Forget it, I’ll go with you. Remember, you owe me a favor!” Lu Lingyu deliberately glared at Fang Yuqing fiercely before striding to the door. He opened the door and walked to the 16th floor. Fang Yuqing followed closely behind him.
They took the stairs to the 16th floor.
Previously, in the elevator, Fang Yuqing had noticed that the room the three of them were going to was probably one of the rooms on the leftmost side of the corridor. The two of them went straight to the left and knocked on the door of every room one by one. After the knock, even if no one came to open the door, the guests in the rooms would ask who was knocking.
Fang Yuqing and the rest probed along the way. In the end, they placed their attention on the third last room.
Only this room was occupied, and there were no guests who responded to them.
The people inside were definitely doing something shameful.
Fang Yuqing and Lu Lingyu looked at each other. In the end, Lu Lingyu walked forward and knocked on the door. He knocked three times before a man’s impatient voice came from the room. “Who is it?” The man’s tone was a little impatient, as if he had been disturbed.
Fang Yuqing remembered this voice. This was the man hugging Jiang Jie in the elevator.
She nodded at Lu Lingyu.
Fang Yuqing took a step back and called Jiang Wei first. Lu Lingyu started to talk to the person in the room and asked him to open the door.
Jiang Wei picked up the phone very quickly.
“Yuqing?” Jiang Wei was a little flattered. Fang Yuqing had actually taken the initiative to call him. This was the first time the bride had stepped into the bridal sedan.
Fang Yuqing could naturally hear the surprise in his tone and the carefulness that was hidden very well.
Fang Yuqing frowned and did not think too deeply about the reason. She only said to Jiang Wei, “Your sister hasn’t gone home yet, right?”
Jiang Wei happened to be home. Upon hearing this, he said, “Wait.”
He stood in the hall and looked around, but he did not see Jiang Jie. He ran upstairs to look for Jiang Jie and pushed open Jiang Jie’s door. He realized that her room was empty. Jiang Wei felt uneasy and asked Fang Yuqing as he went downstairs to look for his mother. “Why are you suddenly asking about her?”
