Chapter 157: Keeping a Hand
Is it possible that something is going to happen to Wei Shan?
Xia Lili's breathing suddenly stopped.
Hallucinations about Wei Shan emerged in her mind.
The hallucination was Wei Shan's room. There was a knock on Wei Shan's door. When the door opened, Yang Yidan was standing outside.
Yang Yidan was holding a tray with a glass of milk on it. She said to Wei Shan, "Shanshan, I've already talked it out with Xia Lili."
"She ran away angrily."
"But I think I've only known her for less than a month, so I don't want to be friends with her."
Xia Lili: What did she do?
In the hallucination, Yang Yidan's tone sounded as if he had done something wrong to her!
In the hallucination, Wei Shan heard Yang Yidan say this and couldn't help but worry: "Where did Lili go? Is there any safety problem?"
Yang Yidan shook her head, her tone completely different from the usual cheerful and cheerful one she used when talking to Xia Lili. She rolled her eyes and said, "I don't know where he went, but Xia Lili is already a grown-up, he wouldn't lose himself, would he?"
Wei Shan sighed: "That's good, this way she won't pester you and won't ask you for money again."
"Xia Lili, it's a bit inappropriate to ask you to borrow money after knowing you for such a short time."
Wei Shan shook her head. "Besides, why would her family spend 300,000 yuan to renovate a courier station? My relative only spent less than 50,000 yuan to open one. There must be something fishy going on here."
"Itami, you should stop being so warm and friendly to others in the future. What if you provoke someone with bad intentions?"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say. I really got along well with Xia Lili this time. She looks kind and harmless, so I wanted to invite her to the island with me. I didn't expect her to actually ask me to borrow 300,000 yuan."
Yang Yidan smiled and patted Wei Shan on the shoulder, then placed the tray of milk on the table. "Okay, okay, let's not talk about spoiling the fun anymore."
"Come, have a glass of milk, take a bath, and then we'll watch a horror movie together on the projector!"
Wei Shan developed a habit of not wasting food due to family reasons. She drank the whole cup of milk cleanly. Yang Yidan watched her with a smile on her face and had already put the tray of milk in her hand.
The clock behind them showed 10:23.
After Wei Shan finished drinking the milk, she gathered her clothes and went into the bathroom. The bathtub was already filled with water and rose petals.
After she lay down in the bathtub, her eyelids gradually became heavy, and finally she closed her eyes in the bathtub.
The illusion ends here.
Xia Lili's vision returned to clarity, and the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end.
When did I borrow money from Yang Yidan?
On her phone, the video call with Wei Shan showed that Wei Shan had hung up!
She called again, but no one answered.
The time on my phone is now 10:14 pm!
There are less than nine minutes left until Wei Shan drinks milk!
Xia Lili's right foot was now deeply pierced by a rusty nail, and she was unable to move at all. Even if she jumped over now, it would be too late to stop it.
In the illusion, Yang Yidan was wearing a Bohemian floral dress, which was exactly what she had worn when she was walking on the beach with Xia Lili.
Yang Yidan is probably on his way to kill Wei Shan now!
She wasn't looking for a doctor or hotel staff at all!
What’s even more creepy is that the glass of milk Yang Yidan gave was most likely the same glass that she had asked her to bring into the bathroom earlier!
Xia Lili's fingerprints were left on the wall of the milk cup!
In the illusion, Yang Yidan brought the milk to Wei Shan directly on a tray, without touching the milk cup with his fingers at all.
Good guy, he actually wants to frame me!
Xia Lili laughed out loud in anger. She opened her phone's address book and made a call: "Hello, it's me..."
After ending the call, Xia Lili sent her location to Officer Yan Hong of Qingshan Police Station. "Officer Yan, please bring the sampling personnel and doctors from the laboratory over here now!"
Xia Lili's fingertips trembled as she held the phone, and she looked towards the hotel holding her breath.
It was already 10:19 when I finished all this.
She could only wait every minute and every second.

Meanwhile, on the fifth floor of the hotel.
Wei Shan's double room is on this floor.
Cleaning lady Aunt Wu and security team leader Lao Wang walked quickly and lightly.
The two of them squatted at the door of room 507, which was Wei Shan's room.
Aunt Wu took out the universal card used for cleaning and swiped the door open with a "beep".
The door opened and Wei Shan and Yang Yidan were talking. They were horrified when they saw the door being opened from the outside.
Yang Yidan immediately became angry: "What are you doing? We didn't call for cleaning service!"
Aunt Wu's eyes had already searched around the room and found the glass of milk that Xia Lili had emphasized on the phone!
She wore gloves and held up the glass of milk with the air of an eagle spreading its wings.
Yang Yidan's pupils shrank and he wanted to knock the glass of milk to the ground. In a flash, the agile security guard Lao Wang raised the explosion-proof steel fork in his hand and pinned Yang Yidan to the wall!
Yang Yidan was terrified and struggled desperately: "You are trespassing illegally!"
Wei Shan was also dumbfounded. She hurriedly tried to pull Lao Wang, trying to get him to let Yang Yidan go. Aunt Wu blocked her way with a mop: "Don't go near her, she wants to kill you!"
Wei Shan opened her eyes wide, as if she had heard some big joke: "You got the wrong person, right? How could Yi Dan kill me?"
Yang Yidan, who was struggling, stopped and looked at Aunt Wu in horror: "What did you say?"
Aunt Wu was already wearing cleaning gloves and picked up the milk and the tray together.
"For the rest, wait for the police to arrive!"
Yang Yidan's expression was savage and gloomy, like a demon crawling out of hell: "Stop spitting bloody words at me! You are trespassing illegally!"
Yang Yidan stared at the glass of milk and said, "My lawyer can make you bankrupt! Let me go right now."
Wei Shan was stunned when she saw the ferocious face, and suddenly felt that she didn't know Yang Yidan anymore.

Finally, at 10:25, Xia Lili's cell phone rang!
The voice of cleaning lady Wu Guilan came from the other end of the line: "Ms. Xia, I've asked security guard Lao Wang to hold Miss Yang down and put her in the next room, separate from Miss Wei."
Aunt Wu's voice trembled with agitation. "But Miss Yang keeps saying she's going to hire a lawyer to sue us for trespassing and illegal imprisonment!"
"Nothing will happen to us, right?"
Xia Lili breathed a sigh of relief and reassured him, "No, I'll take care of everything."
"Wait, I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Lili breathed in the fresh air and felt relieved.
After accidentally meeting Aunt Wu, she thought of Aunt Wu's identity as a hotel cleaner, her hotel universal card, and her familiarity with the hotel. She could help act as a spy and keep an eye on Wei Shan who lived alone on the fifth floor.
