However, after sitting down, it did not take long for her to feel sleepy again. At last, she fell asleep unknowingly, without even realized that her phone dropped on the carpet.

Not knowing exactly how long after that, Ji Mianmian’s body slid down slowly off the chair and landed on the floor which finally woke her up.

Ji Mianmian was still drowsy and tired, she rubbed her head and bolted right up. She wanted to have a look at Qingsi, to check out if Qingsi kicked her blanket, but… was there anyone in bed?

Ji Mianmian’s sleepy head worms were all awoken in shock instantly, she pulled herself up. “Sister, goddess…”

Ji Mianmian was startled and started to look everywhere immediately, but, there was no one in the room. Soon she had begun to perspire all over.

She gave Lil Xu a call right away.

“Did you see Sister Qingsi?”

Lil Xu was also resting in the room. When she heard Ji Mianmian anxious voice, she quickly asked, “No, what happened?”

“She is gone. Sister Qingsi is gone.” Ji Mianmian said, cries of panic escalated in her voice.

Lil Xu too became worried as she heard about it. “How is she gone? Don’t panic. Weren’t you with Sister Qingsi all the time?”

Ji Mianmian cried, “We were together. I was watching her by the side of her bed, but, but…I fell asleep eventually without me knowing. I… It’s my fault. I am so useless.”

Lil Xu could not bear to scold Ji Mianmian. “Don’t panic. Let’s look for her. I will call the crew to ask if she is over there at the film set. You go down to the reception counter and ask the receptionists if anyone has seen her going out.”

Ji Mianmian nodded without hesitation. “Alright. Alright, I’ll go now.”

She ran downstairs directly to the front desk. Indeed, they saw Yan Qingsi going out and they have also called the cab for her.

Lil Xu too arrived at the ground floor very soon. She told Ji Mianmian, “She is not at the film set, maybe gone to the hospital?”

“Go, let’s go to the hospital.” Ji Mianmian dragged Lil Xu to the car.

They both did not know where else Yan Qingsi could be.

A cab pulled up in front of the city police station, the driver said, “Miss, we have arrived.”

Yan Qingsi thanked the driver, paid him and alighted the cab.

Yan Qingsi went in and told the policeman in uniform, “I am here to make a statement about what happened in front of Wan Du Hotel at four in the morning…”

“Oh, I know. Please follow me.” The policeman looked at her up and down. “Are you the celebrity?”

“I guess so.”

The policeman was kind towards Yan Qingsi. No one would refuse a beautiful woman and give her a cold shoulder. Moreover, Yan Qingsi was a victim.

Yan Qingsi gave a detail explanation of the incident truthfully.

Thank you for your cooperation. Should we have any new information in the follow-up investigation, we would let you know in time.”

Yan Qingsi remained still, she asked, “Can I go see the killer?”

“You…”

“She is my step-sister. I want to know why did she want to kill me. She must be still in custody.”

The policeman was surprised and he nodded. “Hmm, alright. I will go ask for permission from my superior. If he agrees then you may do so; otherwise, I won’t be able to help…”

“Thank you,” Yan Qingsi replied.

The policeman went straight to knock on the door of the Deputy Superintendent Office. “Deputy, the main plaintiff of the case where your aunt was stabbed came to make a statement, and she has requested to meet the killer.”

Su Zhen that was seated behind his desk lifted up his head, leaving his handsome face exposed like the glow from a sharp blade that was enshrouded. He pondered for a moment and replied, “Let her see.”

“OK.”

Su Zhen hesitated momentarily before he got up and walked out of the door.
