Chapter 134: Chapter 134: The Runaway Girlfriend (Part 2)

Lin Xiaoyan saw so many people gathered, she quickly stepped back.

After all she’s been through, she understood one truth.

Curiosity really does kill the cat!

Some things are better left unseen; what if something goes wrong?

She glanced at the time; it was almost noon, and her stomach was growling. Luckily, there was food being sold upstairs.

“You are! You are…”

“No! You’ve got the wrong person!”

“Absolutely not, take your mask off…”

“Do you have a conscience…”

“You guys…”

Listening to the arguing from that direction, Lin Xiaoyan decisively turned and left, not daring to let curiosity arise, and immediately headed for the elevator.

Right now, she just wanted to fill her stomach quickly!

Lin Xiaoyan quickly chose a restaurant, ordered a spicy hot pot, and found a seat to sit down.

As she waited, she took out her phone and started mindlessly scrolling through Douyin.

After scrolling through a couple of posts, she stumbled upon the account she had followed before, Chenzhou’s account.

At this moment, Chenzhou was live streaming.

On camera, Chenzhou was sitting in a car, excitedly speaking into the lens.

“I am currently on my way to the mall mentioned by my fans. Thank you all for continuously supporting me and helping me find my girlfriend, thank you…”

Chenzhou’s eyes were red, full of gratitude as he looked at the camera.

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the comments below; everyone was saying “It’s okay,” “Quick, go find your girlfriend!” and “Finally, we’re going to witness a couple coming together…”…

Lin Xiaoyan felt like, it couldn’t be such a coincidence, right?

The woman she just saw downstairs in the lingerie store, could it be Chenzhou’s missing girlfriend?

Her instincts told her that the crowd downstairs seemed to be surrounding that woman…

Lin Xiaoyan watched Chenzhou’s live stream, stood up, looked downstairs, and could vaguely hear the quarrel.

She returned to her seat just as her food arrived; she put away her phone and started eating.

While eating, she continued watching Chenzhou’s stream. After a while, feeling bored, she began to scroll through other videos.

She planned to check later whether Chenzhou had found his girlfriend.

“Ah! Quick, chase her! Don’t let her run away!”

“She’s running; hurry up and chase her!”

“Chenzhou will be here soon; don’t run away!”

“Do you know your boyfriend has been searching for you every day on the subway…”

Just as Lin Xiaoyan finished eating, she heard screaming from downstairs.

She looked up and saw people from this floor—shopkeepers and customers leaning against the glass railing to look down.

Lin Xiaoyan stood up, carrying the clothes she bought in the morning, walked to the railing, and looked down.

A crowd was chasing a woman swiftly through the mall.

Mall security was trying to stop them, but nobody was listening; they were all very agitated.

Lin Xiaoyan opened Chenzhou’s live stream and found he had already reached the mall entrance and was getting out of the car.

Seeing the mall in the live stream, Lin Xiaoyan felt a sense of “Of course.”

This was the very same mall she was in.

People were already rushing downstairs to enjoy the commotion.

Some shopkeepers remained because they had business to attend to, unable to leave.

But everyone was discussing the incident.

Lin Xiaoyan sat back down, picked up a drink, and watched Chenzhou’s stream.

Not long after, Chenzhou met up with the fans who had been messaging him.

The girls who saw Chenzhou were incredibly excited and happy.

“Chenzhou, you really came! Oh my god!”

“Wow, you’re so handsome today!”

“Chenzhou, go for it!”

…

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiaoyan couldn’t help but laugh.

They had been desperately chasing someone, but upon seeing Chenzhou, they only cared about complimenting him on his looks, completely forgetting their purpose.

The people in the live chat were all ranting.

“Didn’t you say you’ve found her? Stop swooning!”

“Where is she? Where is she? Don’t tell me you lied to meet the streamer!”

“Damn! Who’s the nutjob? Pull them away!”

“Where is she? Where is she?”

“I came to see the girlfriend, not you bunch of ugly people!”

“Get to the point!”

…

Chenzhou glanced at the live chat, seeing the comments, his lips curved slightly. Then he impatiently turned his attention to the people in front of him.

“Lingling, where is she? Didn’t you guys say you saw her? Where is she?”

As he spoke, Chenzhou urgently looked around, but couldn’t find Lingling’s figure, and his expression darkened.

“Um…”

The people being questioned looked embarrassed, deeply guilty and remorseful.

“I’m sorry, Chenzhou, she just broke free from us and ran away…”

“Yeah, she ran so fast, we couldn’t catch up…”

“She should still be in the mall; we didn’t see her leave the mall!”

“We’ll keep looking. I’ll ask the mall staff to help us search!”

“Don’t worry, Chenzhou, we’ll find her together. We can definitely find her.”

…

Chenzhou gazed around disappointedly, his face full of dejection, “I must find her!”

And then, scenes of Chenzhou quickly searching through the mall unfolded…

Running, shouting loudly, crying in pain, kneeling to confess…

Watching these scenes, Lin Xiaoyan clicked her tongue in wonder; this was practically a TV drama!

The crowd grew larger and larger, most were moved by Chenzhou’s confession and started searching the mall voluntarily.

Lin Xiaoyan herself was dragged around and checked several times.

Some people were very impatient, wanting to have a nice shopping day but disrupted by these people—which made for a very poor experience!

Some complained to the mall, asking them to control these people, whose noise was very disruptive to the mood.

But these people simply wouldn’t heed the staff’s advice.

And the mall, wary of Chenzhou’s live stream, realized that it had attracted hundreds of thousands of viewers. To ensure the mall’s future development, they had no choice but to assign some staff to help find someone…

Seeing that this farce was refusing to end, Lin Xiaoyan grabbed her clothes and went downstairs, ready to leave.

“Xiao Yan?”

As Lin Xiaoyan reached the first floor, she ran into Zhang Ming and the others who had come after receiving a call.

“Officer Zhang, Officer Ning…”

Seeing them, Lin Xiaoyan looked surprised, then she understood—they must have been alerted by someone who couldn’t take it anymore.

“Are you alright?”

Zhang Ming and the others surveyed the bustling mall and the running people; they approached Lin Xiaoyan and asked her.

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head, “I’m fine; they’re just searching for someone…”

Lin Xiaoyan quickly explained the situation to them, showing them Chenzhou’s live stream.

Looking at Chenzhou’s live stream and the chaos in the mall, Zhang Ming and the others frowned.

“What a mess!” Ning Xuan said sternly.

“Xiao Lin, you should head back; it’s too chaotic here. Come back another time,” Zhang Ming advised.

Lin Xiaoyan nodded, “Yeah, I was planning to leave anyway. Given the situation, I can’t shop anymore.”

“Alright, stay safe on the way.”

“Alright.”

Lin Xiaoyan quickly walked out of the mall, and before leaving, she heard Zhang Ming and the others harshly reprimanding the crowd.
