Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 16) Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 16) Half an hour later, no one had seen Su Qing come out.
The girls’ faces had turned visibly pale.
They had already imagined countless scenarios in their minds.
“Beep~ Beep~” A piercing sound rang out, and the glaring headlights shone on them.
They had never found the police so adorable!
The group was overjoyed and quickly waved towards them.
The car stopped near them, and several uniformed officers got out, “Did you call the police?”
Qiang Wei nodded vigorously, “Officer, we have another classmate inside, please hurry and save her!”
The officer looked grave, “What happened?”
Qiang Wei forced herself to calm down and recounted the day’s events.
As she spoke of the factory, she couldn’t help but shiver. She looked at the officer in front of her and pleaded, “My classmate has been inside for over half an hour, please go and check on her.”
The questioning officer, a young man in his twenties who didn’t believe in any supernatural nonsense, replied, “You are clearly scaring yourselves! How could there be a Female Ghost? Maybe your classmate already left. Have you tried contacting her?”
Qiang Wei nodded, “We called, but no one answered.”
“Alright, since you are too scared to go in, just stay here, and we’ll have a look.”
Four police officers had arrived, one stayed outside while the other three entered with strong flashlights.
Gu Shengyin had already instructed the system to stop as soon as the police arrived; it had been long enough, and the lesson had been sufficient.
Just as the police entered, another car arrived. Gu Shengyin recognized it immediately–it was He Junyan’s car.
“Uncle He!” As soon as He Junyan opened the car door and stepped out, a figure threw itself into his embrace.
He quickly pulled the person back and looked her up and down. Seeing that Gu Shengyin was only a bit panicked and otherwise fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“What happened? What’s going on?”
The moment Gu Shengyin saw He Junyan, years of a pampered disposition emerged, and her tears fell instantly, tightly clutching He Junyan’s arm without letting go.
“It’s alright, Uncle He is here, don’t be afraid, darling. Tell me, what happened?” He Junyan let her cling to him, soothing her in a voice so tender it could drip water.
This tenderness made the other girls stare in awe; even their fears were momentarily forgotten.
They all knew Qingqing had a close uncle who had raised her.
All this time, they had imagined her uncle as a cheerful middle-aged man with a big belly, never expecting him to be such a young and handsome man.
Gu Shengyin, sobbing intermittently, recounted the events to He Junyan.
He Junyan’s expression grew serious; he thought further than these young girls had.
Of course, he didn’t believe in the tales of Ghosts and Goblins. The girls had most likely spooked themselves. However, Qingqing clearly stated that someone had grabbed her foot as she ran out.
This raised some concerns. He Junyan looked downward, hiding the fleeting coldness in his eyes.
He didn’t say much, still comforting the girl in his arms with a gentle voice. Some things were better left unsaid for now.
