Serial killer
Li mansion.
"Are you crazy? What if someone sees us?" Guang whispered.
Hooking her arms around his necks Qiang rolled her eyes. "Why do you always act like a baby? So what if someone happens to see us? I can just say that you are trying to take advantage of me and then cry a little to melt everyone heart honey but I am not sure if anything will happen if you cry so—"
Cutting her off, he pulled her closer and bit her lower lip. "Are you planning to leave me alone to face your entire family?"
"May be,"
"You deserve to be punished," he whispered.
"Hmm so—" tiptoeing, she kissed his earlobe and whispered back, "Why don't you punish me tonight?"
"Of course I will, you cannot escape this punishment," he said before slipping his hand inside her t-shirt.
Pushing him away, she chuckled, "Ah so now you aren't scared of anyone?"
"Just when I had managed to gather a little courage to make a move, you pushed me away."
"Uh-huh, gather all the courage you have to sneak into my room at night because I will be waiting for you." Giving him a peck on his cheek, she ran towards her room.
Grinning from ear to ear, Guang made his way towards the living room and slumped on the couch. Life had suddenly become so beautiful and peaceful after Qiang had become a major part of it. She had managed to add the rainbow colours in his life, making him feel much more lighter and peaceful at heart.
He chuckled and slapped his forehead when he thought of the time when he actually tried to push her away from his life. He would've surely been crying in a corner by now if Qiang hadn't knocked some sense inside him
"Where is everyone?"
Guang widened his eyes in shock and quickly got up when he saw Singtan coming towards him. For some odd reason, he had started feeling more scared and worried when Singtan was around him after he started dating Qiang.
Placing his hand on Guang's shoulder, Singtan asked, "Why did you stand up? Sit down."
Gulping in nervousness, he quickly sat down. His breathing hitched when Singtan settled himself right beside him.
"Did Qiang come with you?"
"Y-yes." His palms started turning sweaty when he started thinking about the chances of Singtan discovering Qiang and him fooling around a few minutes ago. But if Singtan had really seen them, wouldn't he be dead by now?
Calming himself down, he somehow managed to ask, "Uncle Singtan, do you want something from me?"
"Hmm, I wanted to talk to you about Qiang."
"W-What about Qiang?"
"I know you are very busy with your company and other things but yet I always ask you to take Qiang here and there so—"
Cutting him off, Guang said, "It's alright uncle Singtan, I am always ready to help her so it's no big deal." Why would he have any problem with being with her?
"You understand why I urge you to be with Qiang all the time right? Things are a bit chaotic now and you understand the situation quite well. I don't have to worry about Yumi because Zixin is already taking care of her quite well. I just constantly keep worrying about Qiang but I feel at peace when you are with her." Patting his back, Singtan added, "You've always treated Qiang like your own sister so I know that you'll protect her well."
Guang had no idea whether he should laugh or cry. Forcing himself to smile, he said, "Don't worry uncle Singtan, I'll always take care of Qiang."
"Great, you should take some rest until others arrive." When Guang nodded his head, he walked away.
After Singtan was out of sight, Guang covered his face with the cushion and groaned in frustration thinking about all the possibilities that could happen when Singtan finds out that he was taking care of Qiang in every possible way.

Outside the Li mansion.
"Did you look at that man's face?" Elsa chuckled.
"Hey, that place was very crowded and I thought it was your hand," Ashton sighed.
"What? Don't tell me you can't differentiate between a middle-aged man and my hands Ashton." She snapped.
Scratching his forehead, he said, "Hmm I guess I need to hold your hands quite often so that I don't get confused."
"I never said that you can't," Smiling at him, she added, "I really had a great time today, thank you so much."
"I also had a really great time today," Pausing for a while, he asked, "So, would you like to do it again?"
"Yes, I would love to."
"Great, then let's go out for a long drive tomorrow."
Elsa smiled and nodded her head.
….
Inside the mansion.
Mian frowned and asked, "What? How did that happen?"
"I have no idea, the police are trying to find out more details about the incident but the CCTV footage has been tampered." Zian explained.
"So she was there in the hall, with us?" Yumi asked.
"She was the waitress hired by the hotel for our banquet."
Taking a deep breath, Zixin added, "Not only that, she was engaged in a sexual activity right before she was killed."
"Was she raped?" Mian asked.
"Her postmortem report says that there is no sign of any forced entry, I don't think that she was raped. And whoever the man was didn't stop even after she died so they have the man's semen sample with them."
"This is so shocking," Massaging her forehead, Mian asked, "The police haven't found anything yet?"
"Nothing yet but they are trying to investigate."
"Why am I getting a serial killer vibe from this?" Yumi asked.
"Whoever did this doesn't seem normal or mentally sound." Zian said.
Wrapping his arms around Yumi, Zixin kissed the top of her head. "Hey, there is nothing to worry about. I am sure that the police will arrest that man very soon."
