Chapter 1882: 1882

“How am I supposed to sleep now?”

Ye Qianqian felt like she were going crazy . She clung onto Shen Zhilie tightly and said, “Old Shen, don’t bother with this anymore . I think we came across as people who are easy to bully . That’s the only reason why he’s targeting us . As long as we aren’t afraid of him, I’m sure there’s nothing he can do to us . You…”

“Qianqian,” Shen Zhilie cut her off .

Ye Qianqian was so terrified that her eyes gleamed with tears . As she looked at Shen Zhilie, her expression was filled with confusion and helplessness .

Shen Zhilie said reassuringly, “Nothing will happen . ”

“But…”

“No ‘buts’…” Shen Zhilie patted her lightly on her back . “Even my grandmother said that I’ll live to a ripe old age . ”

“Your grandmother’s words aren’t always reliable!” Ye Qianqian retorted immediately .

Shen Zhilie took a deep breath . “What am I to do with you? When my grandmother says something good, you refuse to believe it . On the other hand, when she says something bad, you believe it wholeheartedly . ”

“I don’t…”

“You don’t? Think about it on your own whether or not you do . ”

Ye Qianqian had no answer to that .

Shen Zhilie gazed at her and said, “Nothing will happen . I’ll let the police know what’s going on . ”

“You’re going to make a report?” Ye Qianqian was shocked . “If the guy finds out, won’t he come after us?”

“He’ll come after us all the same even if I don’t . ” Shen Zhilie stared at her . “Don’t believe the words of such people . Since he’s dared to come at us, it’s just going to be a matter of time . I’m notifying the police as a preemptive measure . But in order to catch him, we’ll have to bait him out . ”

“What are you thinking?” Ye Qianqian felt very unsettled about the situation .

Shen Zhilie looked at her but didn’t reply .

…

After giving Inspector Lin a call, Shen Zhilie and Ye Qianqian soon met up with him .

It was six in the morning, and the city of Kingstown had not yet awakened . Inspector Lin had worked through the night and hadn’t slept a wink . Shen Zhilie and Ye Qianqian hadn’t slept, either .

After sending someone out to buy breakfast, Inspector Lin had the couple ushered into a hidden room within the station .

“Inspector Lin, I’ll need your cooperation,” Shen Zhilie said .

Inspector Lin took a look at the absolutely petrified Ye Qianqian and nodded his head . “Tell me everything . I’ll make the necessary arrangements . ”

“I don’t need anything today . Just send someone to take good care of her . ” Shen Zhilie glanced at Ye Qianqian . “I’ll go on my own . I’m guessing that the person wants to meet me for a second time . Let’s do this…”

Ye Qianqian went through the motions of eating her breakfast, but she couldn’t taste a thing . After that, Shen Zhilie managed to coax her into getting some sleep on an empty couch in the police station .

With her head resting on Shen Zhilie’s lap, Ye Qianqian soon drifted off to sleep . She fell into a deep sleep, and by the time she woke up, it was already noon .

Ye Qianqian quickly jumped off the couch and rushed out . Everyone walking around was dressed in their uniforms . When the police officers saw Ye Qianqian, they were visibly stunned .

Ye Qianqian yelled out, “Shen Zhilie!”

Her cry attracted many people’s attention . A female police officer walked up to her and said, “He left for a moment to buy some lunch . Don’t worry . ”

Ye Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief before asking, “How long has he been gone for?”

“He just left . He told me to let you know when you woke up . ”

“Where’s Inspector Lin?” Ye Qianqian felt that something was amiss .

The female officer was dumbfounded for a moment before she quickly replied, “He’s off working . ”

Ye Qianqian’s heart sank . She turned around and returned to the room that she had just come out of and awaited Shen Zhilie’s return .

Her wait stretched into an hour, and Ye Qianqian couldn’t contain herself any longer . She looked at the female officer and asked, “Just where did he go?”
