Chapter 1853: Stop, Shen Zilie!

After cooperating with the policemen with their ongoing investigation, Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie’s ID cards and residence certificates were verified, which proved they were the residents there . They were let go only after the policeman confirmed they weren’t exhibiting any unusual behaviors .

It took around half an hour to complete the process . Although it wasn’t a big issue, Ye Qianqian didn’t feel very comfortable after encountering such a thing .

Looking up at Shen Zhilie, she asked, “Well, how did this happen? I always thought that my luck hasn’t been very good recently . How can it be that I always encounter such unpleasant things?”

“It’s all right . Don’t think about it too much . The more you think about it, the worse you’ll end up feeling . ” Shen Zhilie patted Ye Qianqian’s head . “All right . Why don’t you go wash up and sleep . I’ll call the hospital to tell them I won’t be going back to work tomorrow . ”

“You didn’t ask for leave?” Ye Qianqian listened and smacked her tongue . “Is this okay? You’re not afraid that the hospital will fire you?”

“Don’t worry . The hospital needs me . ” Shen Zhilie patted her head again . “Go take a shower . ”

“Okay . ” Ye Qianqian stretched and went to find her pajamas in her room before going into the bathroom .

Shen Zhilie helped her clean up the luggage and put her things away . Then, he got busy with his own matters .

Ye Qianqian was so tired that she kept fighting to keep her eyes open as she took a shower . After finishing her bath, she saw Shen Zhilie making a call on the balcony . She said good night to him, then went straight back to the room, lay down, and fell fast asleep .

Shen Zhilie’s lips curled up as he leaned against the balustrade of the balcony . Suddenly, he noticed a flash of fire in the distance . He glanced it through the corner of his eye, but it was extremely clear .

Shen Zhilie’s blood ran cold instantly . He turned his head to have a proper look at it, but there was no trace of it .

‘It’s like it was an illusion . ’ Shen Zhilie immediately recalled what the police said to them in the neighborhood . ‘Maybe there’s a drug addict with a gun in the neighborhood!’

Addicts without guns were awful, but with guns, they could be especially dangerous when they lose control of their impulses .

Shen Zhilie’s lips pressed tightly together . He looked around and made sure there was nothing unusual . Then, he closed the floor window of the balcony and entered the room .

As he walked back into the room slowly, he could see that Ye Qianqian was sleeping well . He felt relieved .

He shifted Ye Qianqian’s sleeping position and placed a blanket on her . Then, he went to take a shower . In the middle of his shower, he suddenly heard a scream from outside . “No! ”

‘It’s Ye Qianqian’s voice!’ Shen Zhilie opened the door and rushed out immediately .

“Shen Zhilie…” It was Ye Qianqian’s voice, which sounded a lot lower than it usually was .

He rushed into the room barefoot and turned on the lights . Ye Qianqian was curled up . The blanket had been kicked away by her . Her eyes were closed, and her hair looked slightly messy .

Shen Zhilie let out a sigh of relief . Then, he stepped forward and gave Ye Qianqian a gentle push .

All of a sudden, Ye Qianqian woke up . The lighting in the room was a little harsh . Ye Qianqian squinted her eyes before she could see clearly the person in front of her .

Shen Zhilie had no clothes on—nothing but soap on his head . At the sight of him, Ye Qianqian immediately became fully awake . She opened her eyes wide and said, “What are you doing?”

Shen Zhilie felt angry when he saw her reaction, yet he wanted to laugh at the same time . “You scared me to death . Do you know what kind of dream you just had?”

Ye Qianqian suddenly realized she had been dreaming . She felt embarrassed and said, “Did I talk in my dream?”

“It was way more than talking . You were screaming so awfully loud that I had to run out of the shower . ”
