Chapter 457: Zhuang Yu in danger
As the day drew to a close, Qin Yan gathered her belongings and prepared to leave. Zhuang Yu did not come back after the first class. Still for the last time, Qin Yan scanned the familiar faces. However, she did not find any sign of Zhuang Yu.
Qin Yan sighed. Although she felt uneasy seeing Zhuang Yu’s worried face, she could not do anything till she spoke to the latter. So, finally deciding not to dwell on it too much, Qin Yan shook her head to clear her thoughts and returned to the Moonlight Villa.
Xi Ting had informed her earlier in the day that he would be working late tonight. Qin Yan remembered the text message he had sent her during her last lecture, a brief but thoughtful message explaining that an unexpected project had come up at the office, and he wouldn’t be able to make it home at their usual time.
Since Qin Yan had to rejoin her college and Xi Ting had to return to the office, there would be no one taking care of the little bun at home. So, the previous day, Father Xi and Madam Xi had taken the little guy over to their residence. Since Madam Xi had no other commitments, she would be able to fully immerse herself in taking care of the little guy.
So, Qin Yan was alone in the whole house. After freshening up, she prepared a simple yet delicious dinner for herself. She then had the meal by herself before checking her WeChat. There were updates from some friends, photos of recent gatherings, and even some funny memes that brought a chuckle to Qin Yan’s lips.
"Ding." At this moment, a message notification popped up on her phone screen. It was from Zhuang Yu. There were only a few words on it, "Qin Yan, help me! I am at Sea Market gambling den."
Qin Yan’s pupils dilated. Her first reaction was to call Zhuang Yu, but she could only hear a cold female voice that the phone was turned off. What happened to Zhuang Yu? Why did she send such a message? Why did she turn off her phone? And why would she go to a gambling den?
Suddenly, a thought struck Qin Yan’s mind. Wen Li! Wasn’t he addicted to gambling? Most probably, Zhuang Yu was there because of Wen Li.
Qin Yan quickly put on her coat and buttoned up her windbreaker. Her eyes were cold. She had called the driver as soon as she got the message so the driver was already waiting outside.
