Chapter 38 Living together
Shen Shijing didn't say anything else about this.
He nodded and said calmly, "Go to bed early."
Then left.
It only took half an hour to get from the hotel to the duplex villa where Ning Baixuan lived.
When he arrived, the police who came to the scene to film had not left yet and were filming the damaged areas.
Ning Baixuan looked like she had suffered a major blow. She was wet all over, wrapped in a blanket, her face pale, and she sat shivering on the sofa.
As soon as Shen Shijing appeared, a policewoman came over and asked, "Are you a family member of the person who reported the case?"
"Yeah." Shen Shijing did not deny it.
When Ning Baixuan heard Shen Shijing's voice, she quickly stood up, turned around and looked at him. Her eyelids were very red and tears came out one after another.
Unlike Ning Baicha's forbearance, her crying was an outlet for peace of mind.
She quickly walked to Shen Shijing, stretched out her arms and hugged him: "Brother Shen, you are finally here, I am so scared."
Shen Shijing's hand, which was raised in the air, froze for a moment. After a few seconds, it fell on Ning Baixuan's back and patted her gently. When her emotions calmed down a little, he supported her shoulders and helped her stand up.
"The security system on the doors and windows has been destroyed." The police sister said, "And Miss Ning has also suffered a great shock. We don't recommend that she stay in the villa tonight to rest. Even if she wants to stay, it would be better if someone is with her."
Shen Shijing nodded: "Thank you."
After taking photos and doing some basic interviews, the police officer said, "Ms. Ning, please keep your phone open. If we find the suspect in the next few days, we will contact you as soon as possible. If anyone comes to harass you again, please report it as soon as possible."
Ning Baixuan had not yet recovered from her fear, and nodded with a pale face.
After seeing the police off, Shen Shijing took a quick walk around the living room.
The door lock showed signs of being damaged and the windows were smashed, with debris scattered all over the floor.
He turned around and planned to go upstairs.
"Brother Shen." Ning Baixuan followed him closely, not only her eyes but also her nose was slightly red. She boldly grasped Shen Shijing's hand, her nasal tone was particularly obvious, "I'll go up with you. I'm scared to go alone."
Shen Shijing turned his head and stared into her eyes.
Suddenly I thought of Ning Baicha. She should also want him to stay, but... she didn't say anything.
Shen Shijing suddenly felt a little irritated. He frowned and said, "Okay."
The situation upstairs was slightly better, and the signs of damage were not that serious, but a lot of valuables were stolen.
After a quick walk, when Shen Shijing and Ning Baixuan went downstairs again, Shen Shijing was holding a backpack containing Ning Baixuan's spare clothes.
The two did not stay any longer.
When they got to the car, before getting in, Shen Shijing leaned against the front of the car and called his assistant: "Find someone to clean up Bai Xuan's place."
Ning Baixuan was already sitting in the passenger seat.
When Shen Shijing got in the car, he glanced in her direction, then quickly looked away, as if he was thinking of something.
"Brother Shen?" Ning Baixuan noticed that Shen Shijing's eyes were different, "Can't I sit in the passenger seat?"
"No." Shen Shijing started the engine, "Fasten your seat belts."
Ning Baixuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Arriving at Shen Shijing's residence, she got out of the car, looked at the villa with the lights on, thought for a moment, and then said, "Is there anyone else at home? Would it be inappropriate for me to come to their house rashly like this?"
Shen Shijing carried her backpack with one hand: "Let's go."
After opening the door, only the housekeeper was there. Shen Shijing handed the backpack to the housekeeper and asked her to take Ning Baixuan upstairs.
Ning Baixuan followed the housekeeper and walked halfway up the stairs. She turned and looked at Shen Shijing: "Brother Shen...can you accompany me tonight? I'm scared."
Shen Shijing looked up at her: "Okay."
Ning Baixuan then followed the housekeeper upstairs.
At this time, the cell phone rang. It was a message from Ning Baicha.
[How is Xuanxuan? Is she injured? Can I... call Xuanxuan and ask? ]
Shen Shijing sat on a barstool at the small bar, one foot on the ground and the other on the footrest. He held his phone and looked at the message for nearly half a minute before replying: She's fine, not hurt. I took her to my home.
After sending the message, he put his phone on the bar, took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured it into the decanter.
About ten minutes passed.
Ning Baixuan had already taken a shower, changed her clothes and came downstairs, but Ning Baicha had not yet responded.
"Brother Shen, do you want to drink?" Ning Baixuan was wearing a white nightgown decorated with cute strawberry patterns. She sat opposite Shen Shijing as naturally as if she was at home.
Shen Shijing poured himself a glass of wine and lowered his eyes: "Yeah."
Ning Baixuan supported her face with both hands. She looked at the red wine in the decanter and said, "Brother Shen, can you pour me some?"
Shen Shijing glanced at her and poured her a glass of wine.
The cell phone rang at this moment. Shen Shijing poured out a little red wine, and a few drops of red wine splashed on the table.
Ning Baixuan hurriedly took out a few sheets of paper from the tissue box and wiped it.
Shen Shijing picked up his phone. It was a system notification message. His expression turned cold.
Just when I was about to put my phone down, Ning Baicha’s message popped up again.
[Can I give Xuanxuan a call? ]
Shen Shijing dialed the number directly.
After the call was connected, Ning Baicha's voice rang out.
"Boss Shen, is Xuanxuan here?"
Ning Baixuan tightened her hand holding the red wine glass, frowned slightly, and a look of disgust flashed across her face. She hurriedly spoke in a sweet voice: "Sister, I'm at Brother Shen's house, what's wrong?"
"Boss Shen said your home was vandalized by haters and illegitimate fans. I'm worried if you were injured, but I'm also afraid of... disturbing you." Ning Baicha paused deliberately, "I'm glad you're not injured."
Ning Baixuan's voice came from the microphone: "I'm fine. Fortunately, Brother Shen took me in tonight."
"That's good." Ning Baicha pursed her lips and asked, "But you and Mr. Shen just had a scandal. Isn't it inappropriate for you to spend the night at Mr. Shen's house at this time? If you are afraid, do you want to come to my place and spend the night together?"
"But Brother Shen's security system is more complete. I'm afraid that if I go to your place, I'll be tracked by anti-fans and illegitimate fans, which will cause you trouble." Ning Baixuan's voice was aggrieved. "Sister, don't worry about me. Brother Shen is willing to take me in."
Ning Baicha wanted to say something, but the voice on the other end had already changed to Shen Shijing's: "It's decided."
Then hung up the phone.
Ning Baicha couldn't sleep, so he sat up and touched his chin.
At this time, nothing would happen between Shen Shijing and Ning Baixuan, right?
