His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

Chu Mubei shrugged his shoulders. “No idea! Based on our investigations, she did not seem to have any ties to Mo Feifei at all.”

As he continued, he gave a fake cough. “Will you be going for the Liu Family’s banquet tonight?”

“No!”

“For my sake, please go! As long as you’re willing to go, I’ll definitely do anything for you!”

“…”

Probably due to the downpour from earlier, there were not many people at Dujuan City. This time around, Shi Guang did not walk around, and merely took a vehicle for a circle around the entire place before heading back to the hotel.

When she arrived at the lift lobby, she caught sight of Qian Xun returning from outside in a relaxed manner.

Surprised, Shi Guang waved to Qian Xun excitedly. “Qian Xun, you’re still in the capital! I thought you had already returned!”

“Oh!”

Unlike previously, Qian Xun showed no signs of excitement or happiness when she saw Shi Guang, merely replying her indifferently.

Stunned for a moment, Shi Guang did not take it to heart and chuckled out, “Thank you for helping me back the other night!”

“You don’t have to thank me.” Qian Xun waved it off graciously. “I didn’t do anything. Besides, if I hadn’t asked you to drink, you wouldn’t have gotten that drunk.”

The lift arrived and Qian Xun walked in.

Shi Guang followed suit behind her. She could sense the coldness exuding from Qian Xun as she rubbed her nose instinctively—shouldn’t their relationship have gotten even closer after getting drunk together the other day?

Why did it feel as though they had gotten more distant instead?

She garnered that something must have happened to Qian Xun to affect her mood.

Along the way, there was silence as both of them were hiding in their own thoughts.

Shi Guang arrived at her room first. She looked at Qian Xun ahead of her, wanting to say goodbye. But, the latter merely walked on without any intention of paying her any attention.

Shi Guang’s hands that were raised mid-air dropped down again. Shrugging her shoulders, she took her room card out.

After entering her room, just as she was about to close the door, she found it being pushed in from the outside. Raising her head, Shi Guang was surprised to find a pissed looking Qian Xun.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Qian Xun’s emotions were really complicated right now. Everything that had happened that night was way too shocking, such that she could barely take it in even after a couple of days.

Now that she had bumped into Shi Guang today, to think that the latter wouldn’t even explain or apologize about her deception!

Shi Guang looked at the angry Qian Xun in a stumped manner, her face confused and bewildered.

What happened?

What did Qian Xun want her to say? What should she say? Thank you? Didn’t she say that right when they met earlier on? But, why did it seem as though Qian Xun was pissed at her? Did she do something outrageous when she was drunk the other night?

She invited Qian Xun in first and boiled her some tea before saying in an apologetic manner, “Erm, I’m sorry, I completely forgot about everything that happened the other night! The thing is, I always wake up with a blank slate every time I get drunk, and don’t remember anything that had happened. So, if I did anything to offend you, please don’t take it to heart!”

Qian Xun felt her temper rising.

Even though her tone wasn’t harsh, there was a clear trace of contempt. “I’m not talking about that! I’m talking about the bullsh*t you said about coming to find your sister…!”

Shi Guang was stunned. “I AM here to find my sister?”

“Then where is your sister?” Qian Xun’s voice was cold—to think that she would still be lying to her right now! To think that she was true about wanting to befriend this person!

“My sister…” Shi Guang lowered her eyes, trying to compose her emotions.

Since she had decided to take this person as a friend, she could have chosen not to say it out of her own accord. But, since Qian Xun asked, Shi Guang felt that she shouldn’t lie to her.

“She’s gone missing. I heard that she appeared near the capital, and thus I came looking for her. I’ve got no idea where she is either,” After replying, Shi Guang smiled at Qian Xun.
