She took a deep breath before asking again, her voice softer this time, "Where is Gu Yechen."
"Dead."
There was a gasp in the room and the next second, He Xinyan had fainted.
Before her body could collapse back onto the back, Yi Qiansi ran over like a gust of wind and caught her upper body before it could fall down.
He furrowed his eyebrows together before slowly lowering her down onto the bed.
Then, he walked out of the room and locked the door.

The next time He Xinyan woke up was several hours later.
The lights inside the room were on and when she looked outside, she saw that the sky was dark. She woke up for several seconds already when the memory of what Yi Qiansi had told her before she fainted came back.
Her eyes widened slightly as she sat up on the bed and hugged herself with her arms.
He was lying to her. . . She didn't know what he was up to, but he had to be lying! How could Gu Yechen be dead?
