Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

At the other end of the imperial capital, a towering building stood like a giant in the morning light, quietly facing the rising sun, and the smooth glass curtain wall shone brightly under the morning light, like a mirror that could reflect the whole world. In this quiet morning, Ji Yan was still immersed in a sweet dream, temporarily isolated from this bustling world.

"Ring, ring, ring..." The phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence. Ji Yan frowned slightly in her sleep, as if her sweet dream was disturbed by this sudden sound. She reached out her hand in a daze and fumbled around on the bedside table, trying to find the culprit who disturbed her sweet dream.

"Hey…"

"Yan Yan, let's go out and play!" Mo Qing's voice on the other end of the phone was bright and energetic, as if it could penetrate the telephone line and directly into Ji Yan's heart.

Ji Yan was startled, opened her eyes dazedly, and responded in a half-asleep, "Hmm?"

"Then let's go find you first. Where are you?" Mo Qing's voice was filled with anticipation.

Ji Yan rubbed her eyes, trying to make herself more awake. She mumbled and replied, "Huh?... I'm on... the top floor of the Imperial Capital Building..." After that, she yawned again and sleepiness came over her again. She forgot what she had just said and fell asleep again in a daze.

On the other end of the phone, Mo Qing's eyes widened, staring at the phone in her hand in disbelief. The top floor of the Imperial Capital Building? That's not open to the public!

She was panicked and shouted quickly, "Hello! Hello! Ji Yan, are you sleeping?" However, there was a busy tone on the other end of the phone and Ji Yan had hung up.

Mo Qing looked at Shen Qingfei anxiously: "What should I do? Ji Yan said she was on the top floor of the Imperial Capital Building. That's a mysterious place. How could she be there?"

Shen Qingfei frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go and see, maybe she's just joking."

The two walked out of the room together, Shen Qingfei holding Mo Qing's hand, and they walked to the parking lot together. Along the way, Mo Qing kept asking about Ji Yan, her heart was full of worry and confusion. Shen Qingfei answered patiently, his hand tightly holding Mo Qing's hand, as if giving her strength and comfort.

When they arrived at the Imperial Capital Building, the sun had already filled the entire city. They looked up at the towering building, and a sense of awe rose in their hearts. However, they had no time to appreciate the magnificence of the building, because their anxiety had made them unable to take care of anything else.

The two walked into the building together, and the elevator took them up quickly. In the elevator, Mo Qing nervously held Shen Qingfei's hand, her heartbeat accelerated, as if foreshadowing what was about to happen. Shen Qingfei stood quietly aside, his eyes firm and deep, as if thinking of a countermeasure.

……

"Yan Yan, are you okay?" Mo Qing asked anxiously as the door opened, her eyes full of concern, almost dripping with tears. She held Ji Yan's hand tightly, as if to pass on some strength to her.

Shen Qingfei stood aside, looking at the two people holding hands, and couldn't help feeling a surge of pain in his heart. His eyes were complicated and contradictory, with both concern for Mo Qing and jealousy for Ji Yan. This emotion made him feel irritable and uneasy, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

Suddenly, Ji Yan felt a sharp gaze sweeping across her back, causing her to tremble slightly involuntarily.

"I'm much better now. Why did you want to come to see me today?" Ji Yan tried to make her voice sound calm, but her heart was full of anxiety. She didn't know what kind of news Mo Qing and Shen Qingfei would bring her this time.

Mo Qing and Shen Qingfei followed Ji Yan into the living room and looked around. The layout here was luxurious and exquisite, and every piece of furniture looked so new and expensive.

Shen Qingfei raised his eyebrows, feeling somewhat puzzled. He knew that Ji Yan was not a person who liked luxury, so who was the owner of this floor?

"How dare you say that? Since the last time you went to Dark Night, you hardly went out. You didn't even bother to come and play with me. I had no choice but to come and find you!"

Then Mo Qing continued, with a hint of worry in her voice. "By the way, my aunt called me later and asked how you got home. I also want to ask you, didn't Zhao Jiayu send you home? I felt that she was a little strange that day, and she was so attentive to you the whole time."

Ji Yan's heart trembled slightly, she remembered what happened that night, Zhao Jiayu's behavior made her feel uneasy. However, she did not tell Mo Qing directly about her doubts because there was no solid evidence.

"I feel a little unwell. I just happened to be staying at home to rest recently." Ji Yan tried to avoid the topic. Her eyes flickered slightly as she stared at the cup in her hand.

Mo Qing looked at Ji Yan's reaction and couldn't help but feel a little confused. She knew that Ji Yan was not a good liar, so was she hiding something?

"Did Zhao Jiayu send you home?" Mo Qing couldn't help but ask again, with a hint of anticipation in her tone.

Ji Yan was silent for a moment, her mouth opened and closed, and her eyes showed how much the woman wanted to avoid the topic. She wanted to tell everyone that Zhao Jiayu did not send her to the bus, and even suspected that she had drugged her, but there was no evidence.

"Uh..." Ji Yan's hoarse throat shrank slightly, and she could only utter a few words for a long time. Her black eyes kept wandering, as if she was looking for a suitable excuse.

Shen Qingfei looked at Ji Yan's reaction and couldn't help feeling a little angry. He didn't understand what Ji Yan was thinking. Didn't she know Zhao Jiayu's hostility towards her?

"Looking at your reaction, I know that the damn bitch usually enjoys the attention of everyone, how could she suddenly be so kind as to want to send you back? There must be some conspiracy." Mo Qing couldn't help but interrupt Ji Yan's silence. Her words were full of disgust and anger towards Zhao Jiayu.

"But how did you get back?" Mo Qing continued to ask, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Ji Yan's throat tightened again, and she coughed dryly, trying to hide her nervousness. Her dark eyes kept wandering, as if she was looking for a suitable reason.

"I... cough..." Ji Yan's voice became smaller and smaller, and her body began to tremble slightly. She didn't know whether she should tell Mo Qing and Shen Qingfei the truth.
