Chapter 244 - Who Are You?
Shi Nuannuan was in disbelief.
However, Zuo Weiyi did not notice Shi Nuannuan’s facial expression at all. This was because, the only thing on her mind right now was her best friend, Bei Xingchen!
The text message clearly stated that she should not tell anyone about this matter. So, what should she do now?
What should she do so that she could save Bei Xingchen?
“Um… I, I have to go to the washroom now, too.”
Zuo Weiyi deliberately found an excuse to leave in order to avoid Xiangyi and Shi Nuannuan.
After that, she turned around and walked in the direction of the barbeque restaurant.
Xiangyi could not help but frown slightly as he watched her walking away.
What kind of text message did Miss Zuo receive earlier? Xiangyi could tell that Zuo Weiyi’s face was obviously a little flustered at this time.
Moreover, who was the person who had been hiding in the dark all this while?
Zuo Weiyi rushed into the washroom and quickly took out her cell phone. After looking at her text messages and the picture of Bei Xingchen who had been kidnapped, Zuo Weiyi felt very confused.
She knew that she would not be able to shake Xiangyi and Shi Nuannuan off so easily.
In other words, the twenty minutes that the other party had given her would definitely not be enough!
As soon as she thought about it, Zuo Weiyi tried to call the unfamiliar number on her cell phone.
The phone started ringing for a short while before it was finally connected.
Zuo Weiyi waited silently for a few seconds and after making sure that there was no sound from the other end of the line, she finally spoke up.
“Who are you? Why did you kidnap Bei Xingchen?”
“Why? Of course, it is because of you!”
The person on the other end of the line sounded very strange because he was obviously using a voice-altering machine.
Therefore, Zuo Weiyi had no way of recognizing who the voice belonged to at all. Was it someone that she knew in the past?
“What is your purpose in doing so?” Zuo Weiyi asked once again.
“You will know when you come later.”
Zuo Weiyi held her cell phone tightly in her hand. Ever since she was a child, the only person who had always loved her and treated her nicely, besides her mother, was Bei Xingchen.
Therefore, there was no way that she would let Bei Xingchen die!
“I will definitely come over but…” Zuo Weiyi paused for a short while. “Twenty minutes is too little time. You are not allowing me to tell anyone about this matter. I have to find a way to make sure that I can come and see you alone.”
No matter what the other party’s intention was, she did not want Bei Xingchen to die because of her.
She was her one and only sister.
When they were still on campus, both of them were inseparable and it was as though they were biological sisters!
The other party did not seem to have any doubts about her intentions after listening to her words. Therefore, the other party agreed without thinking too much about it. It was as though he knew about her current situation, and he knew that it would be impossible for her to arrive within twenty minutes.
“Alright then. I will give you one hour. I expect to see you at half-past eight. If I don’t see you at that time, then you can get ready to lose your best friend!”
After he was done speaking, the person on the other end of the line hung up the phone immediately.
After coming out of the washroom, Zuo Weiyi was still a little absent-minded.
Aside from Xiangyi, Shi Nuannuan also seemed to realize that something was wrong with Zuo Weiyi.
Therefore, Shi Nuannuan could only look at Zuo Weiyi with a puzzled and concerned expression on her face.
After the three of them sat down at their table, the barbequed meat and beer that they ordered had already arrived. Shi Nuannuan was about to start eating, but Zuo Weiyi suddenly spoke up at this time.
“Nuannuan, my stomach is feeling a little uncomfortable. Is it okay if I go back first?”
As soon as she heard Zuo Weiyi’s words, Shi Nuannuan turned around and asked worriedly, “What is wrong with you?”
Zuo Weiyi came up with an excuse immediately in order to convince Shi Nuannuan.
“Well, that… it is that time of the month for me. So, my stomach is hurting…”
Shi Nuannuan nodded as soon as she heard Zuo Weiyi’s words and it seemed as though she believed her words immediately.
It was no wonder why she looked so absent-minded earlier. It turned out that her period was here!
