973 Perplexed and Smitten 33 (1/2)

”What's going on?”

”Nothing much…” she replied in an undertone.

”Nothing much, then what's with your face? And your clothes…” Even though she was using both her arms to hug her chest area tightly, he could still tell that her button had been ripped off. Moreover, there was dust on her body.

Fang Erlan did not answer and continued to stare at the lift doors.

Seeing how she did not speak, Yan Ge's eyes were spurting with fire as he straightened her body and asked with a frown, ”Do you want me to go and ask those security guards just now?”

Fang Erlan looked up, her eyes watering. ”I'll tell you when we're in my room.”

When the lift doors sounded as they arrived, the two went out. Once Fang Erlan arrived at her room door, Yan Ge followed her inside.

Fang Erlan went in and took a new dress from her wardrobe before entering the bathroom.

A few minutes later, she emerged in a new set of clothes and had her face washed. The mild graze on her face was also aching faintly.

As she casually tied her hair up into a ponytail, Fang Erlan explained, ”After eating just now, a hotel staff told me my parents were here, so I went out. Once I entered the lift, Jing Yang went in after me. He forcefully brought me to the second basement level and wanted to…”

She found it hard to go on and simply muttered, ”But he didn't hurt me.”

She was basically expressing that she had not been raped by him.

Yan Ge narrowed his eyes. ”He didn't hurt you? Then how did your button get ripped off? And how do you explain the injury on your face? Why didn't I see him when the security officers came up just now?”

”He didn't come up just now, he's probably gone now.”

”Why didn't you let the security officers take him to the police station?”

Fang Erlan replied, ”Forget it, he's got a scandal on him right now. I don't want to…”

”He's got a scandal on him precisely because there's a problem with him!” Once his words landed, Yan Ge turned and was about to walk out of her room.

”Where are you going?”

”I'll go and retrieve the surveillance footage to hand over to the police.”

Fang Erlan hurriedly tried to pull him back. ”No matter what, if the scandal leaks out from my side when I had already told him I'd let it go, wouldn't he hate me more? He might really come back to me for revenge a second time.”

Yan Ge asked instead, ”Could it be that you can't bear to see him get punished? Why, is your heart aching for your idol?”

”Didn't I already say? He's no longer my idol, why would my heart ache for him?”

”Then, why don't you report him to the police? Are you really just afraid that he would get back at you again?”

”That's one of the reasons. Who knows what one can be capable of when they are desperate? Also, I want this matter to be settled as quickly as possible. At the crucial moment, he still stopped. That shows that he isn't incorrigible yet.”

Yan Ge's eyes were now fixed on her porcelain-white neck. As they shifted down, he noticed that the neckline of her one-piece dress was rather low, revealing a faint view of her cleavage.

A burning sensation went up his throat. Detecting his gaze, Fang Erlan lowered her head to look and unconsciously pulled up her one-piece dress.
