Chapter 795 - 776: You Are Abetting the Wicked
When the boy mentioned calling the police, Sister Li immediately grabbed her son, "Don’t talk recklessly. If we provoke the mister, we won’t have any good days ahead!"
As a university student, Chen Changsheng couldn’t just watch something like this happen right under his nose.
"Quickly go check if she’s seriously ill, whether the fever can go down. If it can’t..." Sister Li was also at a loss.
Chen Changsheng was about to reason with his mother when he noticed the surveillance camera installed in the room.
He paused for a moment, then turned to his mother, "Mom, go get some alcohol to rub on her body. That’ll help disperse the cold from her body."
"Alright, I’ll go see if we have any alcohol." With that, Sister Li hurried downstairs to get some.
As his mother went downstairs, Chen Changsheng walked over to Lou Xi’s bedside. He saw Lou Xi slightly open her eyes, her eyes bloodshot but seeming to pin all hope on this man.
"Hello, my name is Chen Changsheng, I’m a senior at Nanda Medical College."
He’s also from Nan University?
"Chen... Chen Changsheng..."
Standing close by, Chen Changsheng heard Lou Xi calling him. He studied the person on the bed carefully and suddenly realized that she looked a lot like the renowned figure at the school, Lou Xi.
But his mother kept calling her "Miss Lin."
"Are you... Lou Xi?" Chen Changsheng asked uncertainly, because since he started university, he focused on his studies and rarely paid attention to gossip. Lou Xi was too well-known, he often heard her name and had seen her photos on the school’s website.
"You..."
"Don’t be afraid, I’m not a bad person. Tell me, are you being illegally confined here? If so, as soon as I leave here today, I’m going to call the police." Chen Changsheng whispered to Lou Xi.
Lou Xi slowly opened her eyes and looked at Chen Changsheng with some skepticism. She wasn’t sure if this person was in cahoots with Xi Siwei.
If he was, her previous disguise would have been for nothing. But if he wasn’t, she would miss a good opportunity.
Should she trust this person? Should she place her hope in him?
After a long time, Lou Xi lowered her eyes.
She didn’t dare gamble with her life, especially not on someone she had only met once.
"The alcohol is here, the alcohol is here!" As silence lingered, Sister Li returned from downstairs with a bottle of baijiu.
Chen Changsheng took a step back, guessing that the woman on the bed didn’t trust him. He had studied psychology and could tell from her eyes and actions that she was wary of him, wary of everything here.
But the more Lou Xi was on guard, the more it confirmed Chen Changsheng’s suspicion that Lou Xi was indeed being held captive here.
"Mom, you use the baijiu to rub her down, I’m not really suitable for that." Although as a medical student, to Chen Changsheng, the human body held no distinction between male or female, he knew Lou Xi certainly didn’t see it that way. To avoid further resistance from her, he chose to step back.
An hour later, Lou Xi’s fever gradually subsided, and Sister Li let out a sigh of relief.
She escorted her son downstairs. A bodyguard came out from the surveillance room and warned Chen Changsheng, "You didn’t see anything here today, you don’t know anything, got it?"
"Understood, understood!" Sister Li answered for Chen Changsheng, then quickly pulled her son out of the villa.
Outside the villa, Chen Changsheng frowned at his mother, "Mom, do you realize you’re abetting a crime? They must have kidnapped that woman. We need to call the police!"
"Oh dear, just pretend you don’t know about this and go get some rest early!"
