Chapter 265: He Just Wants to Treat Her Well (5)
On the distant sidewalk, a disheveled girl was stumbling and running. Because of the distance, Tang Yanqi couldn’t see clearly, but that figure looked a lot like Qi Cheng.
But that’s not right, why would she be here? Wasn’t she supposed to go with Bai Bing and Bai Xue to their place?
Tang Yanqi frowned, trying to get a clearer look, but the figure had already disappeared.
The car started to accelerate, and after driving for a while, Tang Yanqi still felt uneasy. She took out her phone to call Qi Cheng, but the phone was turned off. This made Tang Yanqi tense up. She promptly called Bai Bing, and learned from her that Qi Cheng went out to celebrate a friend’s birthday and stayed overnight, and had called them this morning saying she drank too much last night and wouldn’t be joining them.
What friend? What birthday? An overnight stay outside?
Tang Yanqi paused for a moment and immediately said to Qiao Zi, "Assistant Qiao, I’m sorry, please take me back to the university."
"Alright."
Qiao Zi was very professional. She only did what she was supposed to do and would not ask more questions. Whatever Tang Yanqi said was what she would do.
Running takes more than twenty minutes, but because it was rush hour, the road was heavily congested. Even though Tang Yanqi immediately asked Qiao Zi to reroute back to K University, the traffic was terrible. By the time she walked into the gates of K University, it was already forty minutes later.
Tang Yanqi quickly walked back to the dormitory, pushed open the door, and saw Qi Cheng sleeping on her bed with the blanket covering her head, her whole body seemed curled up.
Tang Yanqi’s frown deepened, she climbed up and gently patted Qi Cheng’s blanket, "Chengzi?"
At the first call, Qi Cheng did not respond, then she called again, and Qi Cheng replied in a muffled voice, "What is it?"
Although her voice sounded as bright as usual, Tang Yanqi was always sensitive and immediately detected a slight hoarseness in her tone. Rational as Tang Yanqi was, she always trusted her own judgment. The disheveled person running wildly on the street was Qi Cheng, it had to be Qi Cheng!
Without saying anything further, Tang Yanqi decisively pulled away Qi Cheng’s blanket, only to see her whole body curled up like a baby. She was wearing the clothes Tang Yanqi had just seen, with scattered purple marks on her neck.
Those marks were exactly the same as the ones on her own body, hers were left by Sheng Jianan, but who left those on Qi Cheng?
"Chengzi, what happened?"
Qi Cheng forcefully tried to pull the blanket back, Tang Yanqi grasped it tightly, and finally under her insistence, Qi Cheng brought her head out of the pillow, her face looked terrible, her lips were pale, her voice hoarse, "Tangtang, can you let me be alone for a while?"
Tang Yanqi paused, Qi Cheng had already pulled the blanket back, covering her head again.
Looking at Qi Cheng’s appearance and those marks on her body, Tang Yanqi knew exactly what had happened, slowly climbed down, and sat on the chair, waiting continuously below.
Although she didn’t know exactly what happened, it certainly wasn’t a good thing.
The sun shone brilliantly at noon, then sank into the twilight at dusk, Qi Cheng finally sat up. Her eyes were red, and she got out of bed, stared at Tang Yanqi for several seconds, then suddenly plunged into her arms, "Tangtang..."
With a loud "wa," Qi Cheng cried openly, Tang Yanqi reached out and held her tightly.
