Chapter 905: Beasts in Human Attire/Birds and Beasts in Human Garb
Just as the two of them were about to call the police, there came an urgent knocking at the door…
Qin Rou saw through the peephole that there were several people outside, and the one leading them was none other than Shen Jue.
Qin Rou used her lip movements to tell Jian Dan who was outside.
Once Jian Dan knew who it was, her eyebrows knitted together, because both she and Qin Rou could guess that they must have come for Zheng Chengcheng.
“What should we do?” Qin Rou asked again with her lip movements.
Out of urgency, Jian Dan could only carry Zheng Chengcheng into the bathtub in the bathroom, pull the shower curtain closed, and quickly cleaned up the bloodstains on the couch so they didn’t look so obvious anymore.
Afterwards, Jian Dan also entered the bathroom, turned on the shower pretending to take a bath…
Seeing Jian Dan’s series of actions, Qin Rou guessed her plan; thus, when Jian Dan closed the bathroom door, Qin Rou composed her emotions before opening the front door, “What’s the rush? My door is about to be knocked down by you guys.” Qin Rou crossed her arms in front of her chest, feigning anger as she spoke.
“I’m really sorry, my cat is missing, and I wanted to see if it ran into your place!” While it was an apology, it didn’t carry the slightest aura of remorse, rather it was brimming with arrogance.
“What are you looking at?” Qin Rou stopped the few men who were sizing up her room.
“They’re just helping me search for my cat!” Shen Jue spoke up.
“Do you think it’s appropriate for a bunch of men to be examining the room of a single girl so brazenly?”
When he visited other people’s rooms, everyone was very cooperative; he hadn’t expected to encounter such a tough nut!
“Well, indeed they’re in the wrong. I can have them apologize to you, but I’m truly anxious to find my cat and hope that you will allow us to look around!” Shen Jue said, suppressing the rage in his heart, speaking in a gentlemanly manner.
Qin Rou, seeing his current demeanor, truly experienced the correct interpretation of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
“I’ve been at the training camp for some days now, and I hadn’t realized, does the director also keep a cat?” Qin Rou showed no intention of letting them in.
“Yes! Normally I keep it in a separate room, so not many people have seen it!” Shen Jue smoothly lied.
“Is that so? I would have never guessed that Director Shen is such a caring person!” Qin Rou emphasized the word “caring” heavily on purpose.
Seeing Shen Jue, who was clearly furious yet had to suppress his anger and not lash out, Qin Rou felt incredibly pleased inside.
Shen Jue gritted his teeth and forced out a smile uglier than crying, “Appearances can be deceiving!”
“Indeed! Director Shen speaks the truth!” Qin Rou spared no mercy for Shen Jue.
“So, may I now come in to take a look?” Right now, finding Zheng Chengcheng as soon as possible was the most important thing, so he could only endure.
Just as they were about to enter the room, Qin Rou raised her hand to block the door, “Did I say you could come in?”
“What do you mean?” Shen Jue’s patience was nearing its breaking point.
“What could I possibly mean! There is no cat in my room, you can go now!” As she spoke, Qin Rou was about to close her door, but how could Shen Jue let Qin Rou close the door so easily?
The more Qin Rou behaved , the greater the likelihood that Zheng Chengcheng was in her place; moreover, Zheng Chengcheng had previously been with New E Media.
“Director Shen, what are you trying to do?” Qin Rou looked at the hand blocking the door, speaking without a trace of fear.
“I am truly in a hurry, so I must find it as soon as possible; please cooperate!” As Shen Jue was talking, one of the men directly grabbed Qin Rou’s hand and barged into the room, followed by the others entering as well…
