Chapter 856: Chapter 857: The Object that Fell from the Sky
Hearing Zhuang Yanyan’s voice behind him, Qin Sijue also quickly turned his head, his face full of urgency, “Grandma, where is Weiwei?!”
Zhuang Yanyan was startled and confused by his frantic demeanor.
“Weiwei should be upstairs, we were waiting here too—”
Before she could finish, she saw Qin Sijue had already turned and rushed into the hotel’s main entrance!
Because the phone had always been hidden behind her, Gu Qiangwei had no idea whether the call had gone through or not.
“Why did you bring me to the rooftop?”
Looking at Gu Shijie in front of her, Gu Qiangwei was nervous inside, but she cautiously held onto the phone hidden behind her because it was her only lifeline.
She was very aware that she was on the top floor, and whether or not the call had gone through, she needed to leak this information to let Qin Sijue know she was on the rooftop.
However, her sudden mention of the word “rooftop” also made Gu Shijie feel that something was amiss. A glance to the side revealed that her hands were always hidden behind her back, and a faint light was dimly visible…
“What are you doing!? Ah—”
Seeing Gu Shijie lunging at her, Gu Qiangwei instinctively wanted to run, but the moment she turned around, she was confronted with the 23-story building!
Her complexion instantly turned as pale as paper!
“Run?”
When the word “rooftop” came through the phone, Qin Sijue heard it loud and clear.
But which rooftop was it referring to? The rooftop of this hotel?
Looking up, in the quiet of the night, the 32-story building stood tall against the night sky, its roof shrouded in darkness, utterly indiscernible.
“What on earth is happening!?”
Behind him, Qin Guozhong’s voice suddenly erupted.
Qin Sijue turned around, and upon seeing him, spoke instantly, “Weiwei never left the hotel, right?”
Qin Guozhong was initially perplexed, “Qiangwei? She has never left the hotel—”
As if suddenly remembering something, Qin Guozhong paused.
Yanyan said they had seen Qiangwei come down earlier, which is why they had also come downstairs, but when they reached the entrance, they hadn’t seen Qiangwei. Had she come out, or not?
Seeing him deep in thought, Qin Sijue’s heart burned with urgency, “What’s wrong?”
Qin Guozhong looked up, “Earlier, we came downstairs after seeing Qiangwei coming down, but after that, we didn’t see her, so…”
He wasn’t sure if she had really left the hotel.
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
In his urgency, Qin Sijue had no time to explain to his grandfather. He was about to dash back into the hotel when he suddenly heard a ‘snap’.
Both grandfather and grandson were startled and turned only to see something falling from the sky not far away.
Though it was night, the faint light allowed Qin Sijue to see the object clearly as he swiftly walked over to it.
Bending down to pick up the almost shattered object, Qin Sijue’s pupils tightened abruptly.
It was Qiangwei’s phone!
Looking up at the rooftop, he moved like a whirlwind, rushing straight into the building, heading for the roof!
“What did you just do! Let go of me!”
At the edge of the rooftop, Gu Qiangwei, who was trying to grab her phone back, was pinned down by Gu Shijie, struggling frantically and precariously!
In the end, the phone fell from the 32nd floor during the struggle!
“Do you know how miserable I am now? I’m neither human nor ghost… and all this is thanks to you and your husband!!”
Pressing down on Gu Qiangwei, who was lying at the edge of the roof, Gu Shijie’s eyes were blood red and ferocious, venting all his resentment onto her!
