Chapter 388: Chapter 388: Bizarre Classic Beauty _1

A deep concern rose within Qin Sisi. Ye You had told her that Xiao Fei’s spirit and body were both injured. Now, there was no response from inside. Could it be that Xiao Fei had already...

Anxiously, Qin Sisi looked towards Ye You, who reassured her with a calming glance, indicating her not to be anxious. He then let out a soft "ow".

Qin Sisi gave a nearly imperceptible nod, and said to Ning Hao and Sister Zeng, "Break down the door!"

Ning Hao hesitated for a mont, uncertain whether Xiao Fei was actually in danger, and considering if making such a big commotion might be inappropriate.

Ning Hao thought for a mont and turned his head to ask, "Sister Zeng, where is Xiao Fei’s father?"

With an anxious look, Sister Zeng replied, "He’s on duty these days and can’t co back. Ning, you’d better think of a solution quickly."

Ning Hao looked at Qin Sisi, considering the help she had offered and the mysteriously incredible things she had done, he finally gritted his teeth and said to Sister Zeng, "Then break down the door! If Xiao Fei is okay and just sleeping, I’ll pay for the damage."

Sister Zeng gave Ning Hao a look of half tenderness and half reproach, frowning and said, "You kid, what are you talking about concerning compensation! I can sense that sothing must have happened to Xiao Fei. If you break down the door and save him, it’s helping us – how could we let you pay for the damages?"

With Sister Zeng’s permission, Ning Hao finally had no more worries.

He asked Sister Zeng and Qin Sisi to make room, took a step back and began to fiercely kick at the door.

Sister Zeng’s house was not very new, perhaps the passage of ti had worn down the quality of the door. After a few hard kicks from Ning Hao, the door actually opened.

The trio hastily rushed into the room, but the sight inside left them startled and baffled.

Sister Zeng had said Xiao Fei was sleeping in the room, but upon looking around, the room was empty and eerily quiet.

At this mont, the outside sky had already darkened. The curtains in the room were drawn, making the room even dimr. They could only see disarray on the bed and a pile of ssy cups.

Sister Zeng stood still for a mont before reaching out to turn on the light.

The bright light pouring down from the ceiling allowed them to clearly see that there was no trace of Xiao Fei.

Ning Hao’s brows furrowed as he asked, "Sister Zeng, did you rember it wrong? Didn’t Xiao Fei co ho at all?"

Astonished, Sister Zeng shook her head and said anxiously, "No, I saw him co in. He entered the room with his phone and closed the door. I even called out to him from outside, telling him to co out for dinner later, and he agreed."

Ning Hao pondered and asked: "Could it be that he went out again later, and you didn’t notice?"

Sister Zeng froze. She was sowhat bewildered amidst the chaos - could it be that Xiao Fei actually left the room again?

Qin Sisi looked at Ning Hao, her voice grave, "No, he definitely ca in. Otherwise, how could the door be locked from the inside?"

Ning Hao was taken aback. Perhaps due to his subconscious hope that Xiao Fei was okay, he had forgotten such vital evidence. That truly should not have happened.

But if Xiao Fei was indeed in the room, where was he now?

The room wasn’t big, everything inside was in plain sight, there was definitely no sign of Xiao Fei.

Under the shadow of their doubts, the three began to scan the room.

In addition to the usual bed, desk, and computer, Xiao Fei’s room also had an easel and so paints.

On the wall, several paintings with different styles were hung.

There were magnificent landscape paintings, vibrant flower and bird paintings, calm still life paintings, and an incredibly vivid classical beauty painting.

Qin Sisi’s gaze traced along the paintings, and when she noticed the last one, the classical beauty painting, a hint of agitation surged in her heart.

Just as Qin Sisi was wondering, Ning Hao beside her suddenly admired softly, "This painting is really beautiful!"

Qin Sisi slightly furrowed her brows. The content and tone of Ning Hao’s words didn’t quite seem right.

Ning Hao was a police officer and a tough guy, with a deep, capable, and robust speaking tone. Qin Sisi couldn’t recollect ever hearing him use such emotionally charged exclamations.

All of a sudden, Qin Sisi seed to realize sothing. She imdiately turned to look at Ning Hao, and found that Ning Hao’s eyes were indeed fixated on the classical beauty painting. The corners of his mouth carried a faint smile, and his eyes were sowhat dreamy.

Qin Sisi reached out, firmly pat his shoulder, and called out his na loudly.

Ning Hao’s expression shifted, he blinked hard, the smile at the corners of his mouth disappeared. He looked at Qin Sisi sowhat puzzled, "What’s wrong?"

With a solemn expression, Qin Sisi asked, "Can you rember what you just said?"

Ning Hao was increasingly surprised and after trying to recall for a mont, he replied: "Did I just say sothing?"

In Ning Hao’s mory, he was just observing the paintings on the wall, and seed to have taken a glance at the classical beauty painting.

But he really could not recall speaking.

Qin Sisi stared at Ning Hao and said word by word, "You just said, ’This painting is really beautiful.’ Can’t you rember saying that?"

Ling Hao looked incredulously at Qin Sisi, after a long while, he slowly shook his head. He could not help but involuntarily glance again at the classical beauty painting.

Imdiately, Qin Sisi stepped in to block Ning Hao’s line of sight, saying anxiously, "Don’t look, there might be sothing wrong with that painting."

Ning Hao perceived the unusual situation and with a grave expression, asked Qin Sisi, "What’s wrong?"

Qin Sisi looked towards Ye You, who also barely shook his head. Left with no choice, she replied, "I can’t be certain yet."

Sister Zeng, who had been quietly searching the room for any signs of Xiao Fei and had not said a word until then, stepped forward and said, "The other paintings have been hung here for a long ti, only that classical beauty painting was bought by Xiao Fei when he went out during his holiday."

Qin Sisi quickly detected the information in Sister Zeng’s words and promptly asked her, "So before this painting was here, Xiao Fei was behaving normally?"

At least he used to go out shopping and was able to buy things to bring back.

Upon hearing what Qin Sisi said, a trace of realization seed to course through Sister Zeng’s brain. She carefully recalled Xiao Fei’s behavior during this period of ti and with great certainty said, "Right, Xiao Fei was perfectly fine earlier, he only started to shut himself in his room and not go outside after buying this painting."

Qin Sisi’s face beca even graver, she raised her head to look at the classical beauty painting again. In a background of a verdant, flower-filled garden was an antique red pavilion. A beautiful lady dressed in a white long skirt was sitting in the pavilion. With her dark hair and fair skin, bright eyes and white teeth, curved nose and cherry lips, she was enchantingly beautiful.
