Chapter 367 The Soul's "Another"
Outside, Bu Zhiyao was already dressed and sitting on the edge of the bed, sobbing softly.
The police officer nodded to Chi Li-cheol after seeing him.
"Mr. Chi, please show your identification, and this... young lady?"
Bai Yisha took the tissue that Chi Liche casually handed her and stuck it to her nose.
She felt like she was going to have another nosebleed.
"Hmm, is an electronic one okay?"
"can."
After checking their identification, the plainclothes police officer returned their phones to them and casually mentioned, "We saw you at a snack shop near the hotel and thought you were a minor. So, what's going on?"
Bai Yisha glanced at Bu Zhiyao, who was still sobbing softly, then at the police officer, hesitated for a moment, and finally confessed honestly.
"I met her online. She's a live streamer. She asked me to meet up, and I thought it would be for dinner, so I came. I don't know what happened, but as soon as I arrived, she... well..."
The police officer was embarrassed. He said, "You met someone online, how could you possibly invite them to a hotel just for dinner?"
Bai Yisha: "..."
Who knows if they're going to set up a hotel-themed restaurant?
Chi Liche glanced at her and couldn't help but chuckle.
The expression on her face was so easy to understand.
Adding to what she said while they were stopping the bleeding inside, Chi Liche couldn't help but shake his head.
Still too young.
When Bu Zhiyao was first questioned, they learned that she was a college student, only 22 years old, an age when she didn't know anything.
"Ms. Bu, now that you've calmed down, can you tell us what happened?"
Bu Zhiyao nodded and recounted the events with trepidation.
Bu Zhiyao has been live streaming for a while, and ever since she received a million-dollar reward from Bai Yisha, she's gotten a bit cocky.
After learning about Bai Yisha's incident, her roommate encouraged Bu Zhiyao to arrange a meeting with Bai Yisha.
She was told to use her body to keep the rich woman.
Bu Zhiyao did hesitate, but she wasn't resolute.
Because of a comment my roommate made—
"Rich women all have special tastes. If they give you money, it means they like you. Once this opportunity is gone, it's gone forever. This is a super rich woman."
They charged into battle.
"I thought... I thought Jiang Jie really was like what my roommate said. When I saw that she was so young, I was actually a little happy. Yes, I'm sorry."
A brief silence fell over the surroundings.
One of the police officers was taking notes. After writing down the last word, he said to Bai Yisha, "You should notify your parents. I'd like to talk to them."
After saying this, the police officer educated and criticized Bu Zhiyao and gave Bai Yisha a legal education session.
Bai Yisha felt like the sky had fallen.
Why are my parents being called in again?!
She really didn't cause any trouble this time; she's innocent!
Just then, Lu Jingyan sent her a message.
[Lu Jingyan]: Silly girl, I saw a nightgown that would suit you perfectly, so I bought it for you. See if you like it.
[Lu Jingyan]: There's a medical academic exchange tomorrow, so I'm leaving get off work early today. Do you want some pudding? Call me "brother" and I'll buy it for you [photo].
When Bai Yisha saw Lu Jingyan's message, she felt like she had found a lifeline and sent him a string of messages.
[Bai Yisha]: Ah Yan, save me, waaaaa QAQ!!
[Bai Yisha]: The police officer said I need to call my parents...
[Bai Yisha]: I don't think I did anything wrong, and I don't know why my parents had to be called in [with a self-righteous tone!]
[Lu Jingyan]: ...What did you do again?
The word "again" is used very cleverly.
Before Bai Yisha could even type, Lu Jingyan called, startling her so much that she almost dropped her phone.
"Hey... Ayan..."
"Yes, you didn't cry, that's progress."
Lu Jingyan chuckled softly, a hint of mockery in his pleasant voice.
The fact that Bai Yisha could send him a message means that the matter is not serious; otherwise, Lu Jingyan wouldn't be laughing.
Bai Yisha: "..."
What kind of stereotype is this?
Bai Yisha's silence made Lu Jingyan chuckle twice, and he said, "Which police station are you at now? Let me see if it's close to me."
“I’m at the hotel, my location is… Oh, Chi Liche is here too.”
Lu Jingyan: "?"
Hotel? Ji Ye-cheol?
"What were you doing at the hotel with Chi Liche? Did he bully you?"
Lu Jingyan's smile vanished, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he slipped into the car.
Put your phone away and drive.
Although Bai Yisha didn't turn on the speakerphone, Chi Liche was right next to her, and the hotel environment was relatively quiet, so he could hear her very clearly.
He smiled and leaned close to Bai Yisha's ear, saying, "You're innocent! I would never bully a child."
Bai Yisha twitched the corner of her mouth.
“He really didn’t bully me. Hey, you come first and we’ll talk about it later. This matter can’t be explained in a short time.”
"Okay, Niu Niu, don't hang up. I'll be there in ten minutes."
Normally, he wouldn't care.
But the fact that Bai Yisha was accompanied by Chi Liche makes a lot of sense.
She didn't understand Lu Jingyan's idea, but she still did as he said.
One plainclothes policeman stayed here, the others went to carry out their missions, and the remaining one stayed to educate Bu Zhiyao.
Ten minutes later, Lu Jingyan rushed over.
Besides the plainclothes police officer and Chi Yee-cheol, there was also a girl inside the house.
He walked directly to Bai Yisha, pulled her close, and pinched and squeezed her here and there. Only when he saw that she was indeed alright did he relax.
"What's going on?" Lu Jingyan glanced at Chi Liche beside him and asked in a low voice.
"Hello, are you a family member of Bai Yisha?"
Seeing how concerned Lu Jingyan was about Bai Yisha, the plainclothes police officer had a general idea of what was going on and went forward to ask him questions.
"Well, I am."
Lu Jingyan glanced at Bai Yisha's small hand clutching his sleeve, tapped her forehead in annoyance, and then spoke with the police.
"Here's the thing, we called you here to let you know what happened. Online scams are rampant these days, and your child..."
"...Strengthen supervision and education of children to prevent them from being deceived."
The police officer explained the situation to Lu Jingyan in general terms and gave him a long explanation before Lu Jingyan understood what had happened.
"Okay, I will definitely give her a good talking-to when I get back. Thank you for your hard work."
He glanced casually at Bu Zhiyao, who was sitting awkwardly on the edge of the bed, and then at Bai Yisha, who was temporarily behaving herself beside him.
Bai Yisha grinned when she saw Lu Jingyan looking over.
Lu Jingyan glared at Bai Yisha, feigning anger, but it had little effect.
After seeing the police off, Lu Jingyan nodded to Chi Liche: "Mr. Chi, thank you."
Although he didn't do anything.
But he was willing to owe him a favor.
Chi Liche raised an eyebrow, revealing a playful smile. He slowly straightened his collar and tilted his head slightly.
"You're welcome. It's nothing, I'll head back now."
Before leaving, Chi Liche gave Bai Yisha a deep look, then turned and went out.
[Chi Liche's favorability +5, total favorability 25.]
Bai Yisha: "?"
This favorability increase happened out of nowhere.
There's absolutely no pattern to it.
