After Chen Yifan finished speaking, he waved to Gu Baiwei beside him and said with a smile, "Weiwei, we'll come to see you again tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Chen Shuang caught up with him, completely bewildered: "Brother, do you know him?"
"This guy surnamed Shen is no good. Stay away from him in the future."
Chen Yifan left after saying only this one sentence.
Chen Shuang scratched her head and caught up with him, wondering what had gotten into her brother this time.
The two were staying at a five-star hotel in Linhai City. While checking in, Chen Shuang overheard two girls next to her whispering, "We need to be extra careful at night these days. I heard that several young girls have gotten into trouble..."
Chen Shuang, curious, moved closer without making a sound. When the two girls saw someone approaching, they immediately moved aside and continued their conversation in even lower voices.
Unable to hear the content, Chen Shuang pondered the key points the two had just mentioned, opened her phone to search, and soon saw related news online. Just looking at the censored photos in the accompanying pictures made Chen Shuang feel a chill run down her spine.
In all the photos, the recovered bodies of the girls all looked as if they had been drained of blood by something, their deaths were gruesome.
Chen Shuang shuddered in fright and quickly took two steps forward to stand next to Chen Yifan.
Unbeknownst to her, a pair of dark eyes were silently watching her every move from the shadows, like a wild beast lurking in the darkness.
Chen Yifan carried his suitcase into the elevator, and Chen Yi followed closely behind him. Just as the elevator doors closed, a thin, pale hand reached out from the gap in the elevator, forcing the doors to reopen.
A tall man wearing a black baseball cap and a mask walked in from outside the elevator.
Chen Shuang immediately moved closer to Chen Yifan, and as soon as she did, the man stood next to her.
The elevator was cramped, and the two people were standing very close together.
Chen Shuang felt an uncontrollable sense of unease. Even though there was still some space on the other side of the man, he insisted on standing right next to her, his clothes brushing against hers. This excessively close proximity to a stranger made Chen Shuang feel very uncomfortable.
"Xiao Shuang?"
Chen Yifan's voice came from beside her ear, and Chen Shuang realized that they had arrived at their floor. She hurriedly followed Chen Yifan out of the elevator.
Whether it was her imagination or not, the moment the elevator doors closed, she saw through the gaps in the doors the man's eyes, which were so dark they seemed to hold no light. Her heart skipped a beat.
"What happened to you just now? I called you several times and you didn't respond."
Chen Yifan felt that Chen Shuang was acting strangely today.
Chen Shuang didn't know how to explain why she felt that the man was acting strangely, so she could only smile and explain, "I was thinking about something and my mind wandered."
"You wouldn't have fallen for that guy surnamed Chen, would you?"
Chen Yifan suddenly spoke up.
"How is that possible?"
Chen Shuang immediately retorted, "He's Sister Weiwei's boyfriend."
Although she is attracted to good looks, she is also someone with principles when it comes to it.
"That's good. When we get home, don't tell our parents and grandpa that we ran into him."
Chen Shuang nodded, then couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why?"
"Don't worry about why, just listen to me."
After Chen Yifan finished speaking, he handed her a room key: "I'm staying in the room next to yours. Call me if you need anything."
He then helped her carry her suitcase into the room.
Chen Shuang wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing that he seemed reluctant to talk, she stopped asking and went into the room to take out the things she needed from her suitcase and start packing.
She was taking things out of her suitcase one by one when the doorbell rang abruptly at the door.
Chen Shuang glanced at the time; it was already 9:30 PM. Could it be that her brother had returned again?
She walked to the door but didn't open it immediately. Instead, she asked, "Who is it?"
A middle-aged woman's voice came from outside the door shortly after: "Hello, would you like room service?"
"Room service so late?" Chen Shuang felt something was off, so she didn't open the door and said warily, "I'm already asleep. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes, sir."
The people outside did not linger and soon the sound of footsteps leaving could be heard.
Chen Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, carefully checked the doors and windows, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
She came out after taking a shower, her body steaming, wrapped in a bath towel.
As I sat on the bed drying my hair, I suddenly felt that something in the room was not quite right.
I instinctively turned my head and saw a pair of disposable hotel slippers that had appeared behind the white curtains at some point.
She had already checked when she came in, and there was clearly nothing there.
She felt a chill run down her spine, and her first instinct was to rush to the next room to find her brother, Chen Yifan.
Before she could react, a pale, thin hand covered her mouth and nose.
A pungent odor filled her nostrils, and before Chen Shuang's consciousness completely sank into darkness, she saw a pair of pitch-black eyes that couldn't let in a single ray of light.
The man had pale skin, wore a black mask and a black baseball cap, and was slender and tall. He was the strange man they had met in the elevator earlier.
"This man is so strange."
Before going to sleep, Gu Baiwei was leaning against the headboard scrolling through the news. She happened to see news about several young girls going missing in Linhai City recently.
In one of the photos, she saw a man facing the camera. The man had very white skin, dark eyes, and a sinister smile on his lips.
The moment she met that smile, she inexplicably shuddered.
A large, well-defined hand wrapped around her slender waist, and the man's warm breath brushed against her ear, tenderly whispering, "Weiwei."
She turned her head and looked directly at the man's deep, narrow eyes.
His features are deep and three-dimensional, with distinct facial lines, making him very pleasing to the eye.
"Weiwei, you've forgotten me again."
The man leaned closer, his deep, magnetic voice carrying a hint of grievance.
Gu Baiwei didn't know how to respond. Although she knew the man in front of her was her boyfriend, she really didn't remember him.
"sorry."
After a long pause, she spoke softly.
Shen Yanqing took her hand and smiled gently: "Then let me reintroduce myself. My name is Shen Yanqing, I am the president of Shen Group, and also your boyfriend."
As he spoke, he moved even closer to her, almost touching her body.
Being so close, Gu Baiwei's cheeks began to burn uncontrollably: "You...you're too close."
"Oh, really? I don't think it's close enough."
As he spoke, his slender fingers pinched her delicate chin, and his soft lips slowly pressed against hers, carrying a faint scent of pine.
Gu Bai was stunned for a moment, then his heart suddenly started pounding wildly.
Her cheeks burned as she reached out to push him away, but he grabbed her hands and pulled them above her head instead.
