Xiao Cheng gently patted He Yaya's shoulder, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, it's just a dream."
With tear-filled eyes, she looked at him and choked out, "Xiao Cheng, I'm scared... Is Han Ran really here to find me...?"
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes were red, giving her a pitiful appearance.
Xiao Cheng felt a pang of heartache as he held her tightly, his tone firm. "Don't be afraid, Ya Ya. It's okay."
He Yaya buried her head deeper into his embrace, her shoulders trembling slightly. His gaze was gentle, and his voice soothing, as if he were calming a frightened child.
Xiao Cheng tenderly patted He Yaya's back and whispered, "Don't be afraid, Ya Ya. It's just a dream."
Leaning against him, she still had tears in the corners of her eyes but managed to curve her lips into a faint smile.
"Don't think too much; I will always be here with you." He gently stroked her hair, his eyes soft as he reassured her, "It's alright now. It's alright."
He Yaya nestled into his arms, her shoulders still shaking. Her long eyelashes cast shadows under her eyelids, obscuring her expression at that moment.
I floated behind them, watching their intimate posture with a heart full of anger and resentment. This hypocritical woman was pretending to be so innocent!
"Captain," Yan Peng's voice suddenly rang out at the door, interrupting the warmth in the room.
Yan Peng strode up to Xiao Cheng, his tone serious. "Captain, we need to talk again about Han Ran's last distress call."
Xiao Cheng frowned slightly, showing signs of impatience.
Yan Peng's brow furrowed deeply as he fixed a sharp gaze on Xiao Cheng, his voice resolute. "Captain, I have a message from Han Ran that she sent you before she died. I think you should take a look." He pulled out his phone from his pocket and displayed the message to Xiao Cheng.
The desperate words on the screen were clear: "Xiao Cheng, help me! He Yaya is faking illness; she's lying to you! My room is on fire, and I can't get out."
Xiao Cheng lifted his head with some annoyance, his brow still furrowed.
He Yaya also looked up, her eyes red and filled with a hint of panic as she glanced at Yan Peng.
Standing at the doorway with his phone in hand, Yan Peng's gaze remained sharp as he addressed Xiao Cheng. "What else is there to discuss? I've already explained; at the time, I thought she was joking." He tightened his grip around He Yaya's shoulders, as if silently declaring something.
Taking a deep breath, Yan Peng pulled out a folded note from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Cheng, his tone serious. "Captain, I have something important to report."
Xiao Cheng frowned again in annoyance, glancing at He Yaya before turning back to Yan Peng. "What is it? Does it have to be said right now?"
Yan Peng's expression was steadfast; he ignored Xiao Cheng's irritation and continued speaking.
Upon reading the message, Xiao Cheng's expression changed drastically. He suddenly pushed He Yaya aside and snatched Yan Peng's phone, repeatedly confirming the contents of the message.
His pupils dilated in shock, fingers trembling as he nearly dropped the phone. In disbelief, he looked up at Yan Peng, his lips slightly parted. Yan Peng candidly asked, "Did Han Ran really not tell you anything special before she died?"
Xiao Cheng furrowed his brow impatiently, a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone. "No, we usually just talk about everyday things. Recently, she's been emotionally unstable, always suspicious of everyone."
Outside, a fire truck whizzed by, its piercing siren shattering the tranquility of the night.
Yan Peng let out a cold laugh, shaking the phone in his hand. "Captain, this is the message that Han Ran sent you before she died. Are you sure you haven't seen it?" His voice was icy, laced with the remnants of words consumed by flames, leaving them unclear.
Xiao Cheng looked up, his eyes wide with terror as he glanced at He Yaya. She feigned calmness, turning her head away, her gaze flickering as she avoided making eye contact with him.
Noticing Xiao Cheng's distress, He Yaya asked nervously, "Xiao Cheng, what's wrong? What happened?" Her voice trembled slightly as she awaited his response.
The air felt thick and suffocating.
The Commander rushed over upon hearing the news, his face pale with anger. "Yan Peng, what on earth is going on?"
