Qin Wei was very surprised to see Song Huan.
It just so happened that Song Huan was her neighbor, which made it even more surprising.
It just so happened that her home was burglarized, and the one who called the police was her neighbor Song Huan, which was even more surprising.
All the coincidences added up to being impossible.
Qin Wei looked at her with an expression that said—
“I don’t believe it.”
Song Huan didn't believe it either. She was back home on vacation and somehow got tricked into coming here.
The truth is that some people don't want to show their face but need someone to take the fall.
"I'm your neighbor. I called the police. I heard noises from your window while jogging in the morning, someone climbed out from the window, that's not normal, so I called the police."
Song Huan repeated the words from her memory,
"Any questions?"
Qin Wei shook her head. Facing this emotionless recording device, all she could say was:
"No questions."
"I'll send my assistant to go upstairs with the police to take stock of your items. For any valuables, I've helped you log them before, so we just need to check them one by one. It'll take some time.
So in that regard, I know better than you, you don't need to worry. I've prepared some daily necessities for you. Otherwise you can stay at a hotel for a few days, or it's still unsafe for you to stay here."
Li Yao said to her, then considered the money issue,
"If you stay at a hotel, the company will reimburse you, don't worry."
She really couldn't stay now that thieves could come and go freely. And she wouldn't be able to sleep alone at night either.
But she didn't want to stay at a hotel either, going in and out would be inconvenient, and she'd have to be on the lookout for paparazzi and fans...
It was so tiring...
Her gaze moved to Song Huan. She said to Li Yao:
"Teacher Song happens to be my neighbor! What a coincidence meeting again! I'll just stay at her place!"
Li Yao knew Song Huan. They had met before. And Song Huan's identity made her a reliable person, so he nodded:
"I think that works."
Song Huan raised her brows:
"My vacation is ending and I need to return to my unit. If you want, I'll be happy to bring you along. Deputy Yang also appreciates you, he can make a special case for you to stay. Anyway you've got yourself into this mess already, don't idle away your time. Come with me, it'll be a good chance to test your..."
"I don't think so."
Qin Wei ignored Song Huan's words and shook her head at Li Yao.
Even more tiring...
"Let me in, I'm the homeowner's friend."
Just as she was talking, a dissatisfied voice sounded from the door.
Qin Wei immediately recognized that it was Shen Qingqing. Why did she come now of all times?
"She's my friend."
Qin Wei told her company colleagues at the door.
Only then did they let Shen Qingqing in.
"Weiwei, you can't stay here anymore. A break-in! Fortunately you weren't home, otherwise your personal safety couldn't even be guaranteed!!"
Shen Qingqing walked in while complaining,
"What kind of useless property management is this? The security system is just for show? Useless junk!"
Shen Qingqing complained and grumbled. Together with her previous behavior at the scenic spot, Qin Wei took a deep breath and carefully asked her:
"So you also own properties here?"
"Li Yao told me."
Shen Qingqing pointed at Li Yao, and Li Yao also admitted:
"I figured that with something like this happening, you'd definitely feel scared being alone. Li Liang and the others probably won't make it back until tomorrow, so I gave your friend a call. Ms. Shen is very kind and agreed right away."
Li Yao glanced back at Song Huan, hesitated a little,
"But now it seems the little ancestor would rather go with Teacher Song..."
Qin Wei quickly refused: "No no no!!"
Shen Qingqing sized up Song Huan without hiding her dissatisfaction:
"Who's this? Can she be trusted? Li Yao, you're so irresponsible letting Weiwei go with her!"
Song Huan glanced at her but said nothing. Then they saw Shen Qingqing take out her phone to check something, mumbling to herself:
"The real estate and property management here belong to the...Yun family. Yes, that's the Yuns...so Yun Lan will have to take responsibility for this..."
Song Huan sighed, "If you're not coming with me, then I'll take my leave. I've already spent all day here. Goodbye."
"Thank you, have a safe trip."
Qin Wei waved at her. She felt there was no need to inquire further about Song Huan and her companions. Song Huan would naturally tell her if necessary.
Right now, solving her housing problem came first...
Shen Qingqing felt someone's gaze on her and suddenly felt very uncomfortable. She looked up and her eyes collided with Qin Wei's: "Why are you looking at me?"
"I can't stay at my place anymore..."
Qin Wei looked at Shen Qingqing pleadingly.
"I know, I'll take you to book a room, the executive suites. You can stay as long as you want."
Shen Qingqing smiled at her sweetly,
"And I'll stay with you!"
Qin Wei: "Do you have any houses you can buy for me? I don't think hotels are very convenient."
Shen Qingqing blinked, "Buying you a house is impossible. You're not my...anything. My parents wouldn't allow it. But finding you a safe and comfortable place to live, that's totally doable! Leave it to me!"
Qin Wei beamed. This friend had definitely been worth befriending. She would surely lend a helping hand in times of need!
Qin Wei didn't go upstairs. She didn't need to bring any personal items when staying with Shen Qingqing, no need to carry luggage, they could check in right away.
"Li Yao, shall we go then?"
Li Yao nodded. Her being here wasn't of much help when this was her home. Leaving would allow them to verify things without disturbing them. She only needed to ensure her own safety.
"Little ancestor, you're free for the next few days. Just make sure your phone stays connected. Take a good rest after that tiring shoot..."
As Li Yao spoke, he looked to Shen Qingqing again.
"I'll have to trouble you to take care of my little ancestor. Her living expenses will be reimbursed by the company."
Shen Qingqing nodded, then left with Qin Wei in her Ferrari.
Sitting in Shen Qingqing's sports car, Qin Wei asked her:
"Where are we going? Let me confirm first, I'm not going to a hotel. There have been lots of paparazzi tracking me lately. I already spotted several at the airport. You saw the trending topics right..."
"No way I'd wrong you by making you stay at a hotel! Don't worry, the moment I got the call I started thinking about arranging your accommodation. Ah~ who knows how long I'll get to stay with you, but I can arrange your schedule however I want! Feels so good~"
Shen Qingqing put on sunglasses and started the engine.
Qin Wei had an uneasy feeling. What did she mean by "arrange however I want"???
...
One hour later.
Shen Qingqing: "Dad, Mom! This is Qin Wei! I brought her to meet you!"
Shen's Father: "..............."
Shen's Mother: "..............."
Qin Wei: "...................................."
Shen Qingqing said earnestly to her parents:
"Starting today, she'll be living with us. Mom, Dad, you have to treat her like a daughter...no, you have to love her like she's your own daughter!"
Standing in the spacious living room of Shen Qingqing's home, facing her parents, Qin Wei was reminded yet again of the alien immigration plan.
Who knew Shen Qingqing would directly bring her home?!
Who knew she lived with her parents?!
Qin Wei felt her mind going blank, but she managed to squeeze out a smile:
"Uncle, Auntie, excuse my intrusion..."
Shen Qingqing's parents also smiled very awkwardly.
Oblivious to the strange atmosphere, Shen Qingqing patted Qin Wei's back:
"My room's on the third floor. Starting today, you'll share it with me. Relax!"
