Jian Dan saw that Qin Rouâs expression was very serious and knew that something grave must have occurred.
âWhat happened?â Jian Dan also dropped his playful demeanor and looked at Qin Rou earnestly.
âCome with me and youâll know,â said Qin Rou, clearly not wanting to discuss it there.
Understanding her intention, Jian Dan followed Qin Rou to her roomâ¦
The moment Jian Dan stepped into Qin Rouâs room, he was stunned by the sight before him.
On the sofa was a woman covered in blood. She had so many wounds on her face that Jian Dan couldnât recognize her at first glance.
âRou, whatâs this?â
âItâs Zheng Chengcheng!â
âWhat?â Jian Dan could hardly believe his ears.
The bloody woman before him was actually Zheng Chengcheng?
Jian Dan approached slowly, and the face became more and more familiar, âIt really is Zheng Chengcheng! How did she end up like this?â
âShe didnât say, she just kept asking to see you!â
Jian Dan crouched in front of Zheng Chengcheng, âZheng Chengcheng, itâs me!â
Upon hearing Jian Danâs voice, Zheng Chengcheng slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were not only full of bloodshot but also red bruises.
âHow did you end up like this?â
âMr. Jian~â Zheng Chengcheng painfully began.
âLet me clean you up first,â Jian Dan said, feeling a terrible sense of unease upon seeing her condition.
Zheng Chengcheng shook her head, âIt wonât come clean! It canât ever be cleaned!â said Zheng Chengcheng as her cracked lips moved.
âYouâ¦â Jian Dan could hardly bear to ask.
It was clear from her appearance what she must have gone through!
âMr. Jian, I really regret it now, regretting why I chose that path!â Tears mingled with blood as they slid down from the corner of Zheng Chengchengâs eyes, âBut you were right, everyone must bear the consequences for their choices, so I blame no one!
I struggled to come back just to ask you for a few things! I hope you can grant my requests because I really have no one else to turn to!â
âTell me!â Jian Danâs eyes also turned red involuntarily.
âShen Jue, heâs the devil. You must ensure he is brought to justice. Thereâs a video about him on my phone!â Shen Jue was the chief director.
Zheng Chengcheng struggled to hand over her phone to Jian Dan, its screen smeared with blood.
âThereâs something else. I have a younger brother. We were very close as children, but then our parents divorced, so we were separated. We only recently got back in touch, and I hope you can tell him to live well and not to choose the wrong path!â
âI will, I promise!â
âThank you, Mr. Jian! Thank you!â Zheng Chengchengâs eyes began to lose focus, her gaze fixated on the ceiling, her lips barely moving, âIf only I could do it all over again, I would surelyâ¦â Zheng Chengcheng never finished her sentence before her eyes closedâ¦
âZheng Chengcheng~ Zheng Chengcheng~â Jian Dan shook her arm and called her name, but her eyes never opened againâ¦
âJian, sheâs dead!â Qin Rou said after feeling her neck.
âWhat?â
Jian Dan couldnât bear to accept that the vibrant life that had been there just days before had now vanished!
What Jian Dan and the others didnât know was that at this very moment, Shen Jue and his people were frantically searching for Zheng Chengchengâ¦
Of course, they didnât dare search openly, so they pretended to look for lost items as a pretext to search everywhereâ¦
