Qiao Lian widened her eyes and stared forward.
Then, she saw the surrounding passersby, who were actually reporters in disguise, rush forward into the hotel along with the police.
Qiao Lian’s eyes narrowed. Under the guise of collecting news, she rushed in as well.
She did not know exactly what had happened. She only knew that she must enter, find Shen Liangchuan and ensure that nothing had happened to him.
The security guards inside the hotel had already lost control of the situation. The leader of the police squad showed his identification card to the lobby manager, who was hurrying over to him. “We are from the Chaoyang District anti-narcotics bureau and we suspect that there are people taking drugs in these premises.”
Then, at a wave of the squad leader’s hand, the other policemen rushed to the various hotel rooms in an orderly fashion.
Qiao Lian’s heart dropped when she heard those words.
Taking drugs!
If there were celebrities taking drugs here, then every single celebrity present in this hotel today would be carted off by the police to undergo drug tests.
She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and clenched her fists tightly.
She was extremely certain that Shen Liangchuan did not do drugs.
However, even if this was true, his reputation would certainly be tarnished once he got carted off by the police.
Once she thought of this, she tailed the policemen and dashed among the different compartments as well.
A group of people were being brought out by the police, their heads clearly in the clouds. Expressions of enjoyment and relaxation were on all of their faces, but these expressions just made their appearance look both wretched and disgusting.
This room was not Shen Liangchuan’s.
She walked to the next room.
As she was walking, she suddenly heard a familiar voice saying, “I wasn’t taking drugs! We were only socializing.”
This was… Wang Wenhao’s voice!
Qiao Lian turned her head and saw that Wang Wenhao was being escorted by the police outside.
The policemen were clearly ignoring his explanations and continued taking him outside.
Right when they reached the entranceway, Wang Wenhao suddenly shouted, “Shen Liangchuan is also here! He’s also taking drugs.”
His words caused the squad’s leader to frown and immediately say to two policemen, “Both of you, go back and search again!”
“Yes, sir.”
Qiao Lian was panicking.
It wasn’t wrong of the police to be doing what they were currently doing, but it was wrong for them to be paying undue attention to these public figures.
If a celebrity was arrested, even if it was later confirmed that they did not take drugs, such a scandal would get posted on Weibo. By then, who would believe in their innocence?!
As such, Shen Liangchuan must not be caught no matter what.
As Qiao Lian began to walk faster, she took out her cell phone and called Shen Liangchuan. However, nobody was picking up her call.
Thus, Qiao Lian had no other option but to call Song Cheng again.
Her call was quickly picked up. As she was currently running rapidly, she said in a heaving voice, “Which room are all of you in?”
“Room 888. Why are you asking?”
His relaxed tone almost caused Qiao Lian to spew out a mouthful of blood.
How could have they not have heard the huge commotion downstairs?
Their room was indeed soundproof, and at this moment, that wasn’t a good thing at all!
She desperately said, “The police are downstairs apprehending suspected drug smugglers. Wang Wenhao just confirmed to them that Shen Liangchuan is in the hotel. You must find a way to escape, quickly!”
As she finished her proclamation, Song Cheng’s tone became serious. “Fine”, he said.
Qiao Lian stood on the spot and took a couple of deep breaths. She then saw that the police had already found Shen Liangchuan’s room number and were about to go upstairs.
Qiao Lian’s eyes narrowed. Noticing that the elevator was still not descending, she clenched her teeth and ran to the nearby stairway.
She hurriedly climbed up the stairs, stopping to observe the elevator on every floor.
As she arrived at the eighth floor, the elevator also opened with a ding. Two policemen walked out of the elevator. However, at this exact moment, Song Cheng had opened the door to room 888 and was walking out of the room.
They were in deep trouble!
