Sang Ran had specially asked Ye Feifei to help arrange a resting room while preparing for the party.
Just now, Sang Ran was panicked and was taken by Wen Qing to search on another floor, momentarily forgetting about the resting room.
Now, this room was the only one left unsearched.
When Sang Ran stood at the door, her hand holding the room card was trembling.
But Wen Qing behind her couldn’t wait any longer, snatching the room card and opening the door impatiently.
She explained, "Third Young Master isn’t answering the phone, could he have drunk too much and something happened? A human life is at stake, let’s not delay."
With a click, the door opened.
That distinctly ambiguous atmosphere hit everyone in the face before they even entered the room, causing some to start imagining things.
Wen Qing and Ye Feifei exchanged a glance, and almost without giving Sang Ran a chance to react, they pushed open the door and went in.
"I really want to see who’s got the audacity to seduce Third Young Master here!" Ye Feifei stormed into the room, unable to contain her anger.
In a place where others might not notice, the corners of her mouth were almost splitting to the back of her head.
However, when she looked at the bed, she froze.
The people at the door thought she saw some indecent scene and got scared.
Wen Qing, supporting the staggering Sang Ran, deliberately said, "It couldn’t be Lin..."
Sang Ran couldn’t listen any longer and rushed over, but her expression was as surprised as Ye Feifei’s.
Wen Qing curled her lips and as she stepped forward, those unsavory words slipped out.
"Lin Zhiyi, you shameless..."
The onlookers who were just standing at the door looking on, immediately thought of previous scandals upon hearing Lin Zhiyi’s name.
Could it really be true?
They all rushed in at once.
After seeing clearly who was on the bed, one of them said, "President Wen, where’s Lin Zhiyi?"
"You should be asking, where is anyone?" another person said.
The bed was indeed messy, but there was not a single person on it.
The room inside was also clean, with no trace of anything inappropriate.
Wen Qing’s eyes widened: "This is impossible!"
"What’s impossible?"
The bathroom door opened, and Gong Chen came out wearing a bathrobe, with a layer of steam still lingering around him.
Sang Ran looked him up and down, but couldn’t see anything unusual.
She subconsciously walked towards the bathroom but was blocked by Gong Chen raising his hand.
"What are you looking for?" he asked coldly.
"I..." Sang Ran bit her lip and turned to look helplessly at Wen Qing beside her.
Wen Qing stepped forward and said, "Third Young Master, Xiao Ran is also afraid that people might misunderstand, after all, the bed doesn’t look like it was used by just one person resting."
"President Wen seems to know quite a bit, then tell me, if it wasn’t just me, who else was here?"
The warmth in Gong Chen’s eyes receded, leaving behind only a cold glint, as if the surrounding heat was instantly congealing.
Under Gong Chen’s gaze, Wen Qing felt her chest tighten.
But she did not want to miss this perfect opportunity.
Ye Feifei personally brought Lin Zhiyi here; if she’s not on the bed, she must be in the bathroom.
Standing tall, Wen Qing asserted with the authority of an elder, "Third Young Master, Lin Zhiyi is also missing, isn’t this too much of a coincidence? I don’t want Xiao Ran to be hurt, so wouldn’t it be better to clear things up?"
After speaking, she tried to push open the bathroom door.
But Gong Chen’s hand did not lower.
He looked at Sang Ran with an unapproachably icy demeanor, "Do you think the same?"
Sang Ran pursed her lips, tacitly agreeing with Wen Qing’s actions.
Gong Chen scoffed coolly, not only did he step aside, but he also personally pushed open the bathroom door.
"Anyone there?"
The bathroom was luxurious but also clear at a glance, with absolutely no place to hide anyone.
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, then quickly found an excuse for herself: "Third Young Master, Xiao Ran is also concerned about you; you disappeared after drinking, and she feared someone might take advantage of your vulnerability."
