Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: It Was Mr. He
She was still asleep, her long, seaweed-like hair spread out on the pillow, contrasting with her red dress and fair skin, making her look exceptionally beautiful.
Huo Yanhui let out a low murmur of admiration.
He Jingyao’s gaze turned cold: "You two go wait in the room."
Huo Yanhui was reluctant: "What if you need us?"
"That’s why I’m asking you to wait in the room. I’ll call you if I need you." He Jingyao gave him a cold glance.
Huo Yanhui touched his nose, hesitated, and was pulled away by Huo Yanzhao.
In the surveillance, Zhixi remained motionless, only her full chest slightly rising and falling.
He Jingyao’s gaze was dark yet soft.
However, his slightly clenched hands betrayed his tension.
No one knows how long it took, but the person on the bed finally moved.
She opened her eyes, sat up from the bed, and looked around at her surroundings.
Her bewildered expression made He Jingyao’s heart clench tightly.
Huo Yanhui rushed out: "Little sister-in-law is awake? How is she?"
He Jingyao said nothing, his gaze still fixed firmly on the screen, his thin lips tightly pressed.
Huo Yanzhao also walked over, took a look at the screen, and confidently said: "At least the first step was a success. It seems she doesn’t remember anything."
"Amazing, my big brother." Huo Yanhui praised.
He Jingyao coldly looked at him: "If you’re just here to watch the show, then get out!"
Huo Yanhui shivered: "I was wrong."
He then made a zipping motion over his mouth to signify silence.
Thinking about it, indeed, for Jingyao, this matter was no joke. With him making all kinds of exclamations here, it did make him seem quite annoying.
Huo Yanhui silently reflected for a moment, then completely quieted down.
He Jingyao and Huo Yanzhao continued to stare intently at the surveillance screen.
Zhixi finally got out of bed, searching everywhere.
She quickly found the cash and phone.
Fortunately, she still remembered her life skills. So, she put the cash away, then turned on the phone to check something.
However, the information she found couldn’t help her understand her situation, and the bewilderment on her face became more pronounced.
She stared blankly for a while, even holding her head several times, seemingly trying hard to recall something, but it was all in vain.
She finally left the room.
He Jingyao’s Adam’s apple moved with a gulp.
Seeing her lost and pitiful look made his heart ache terribly.
But now that things have come to this, he could only wait quietly.
Another surveillance camera switched on, connected to a micro camera on Zhixi, showing a shaky image.
They were now seeing the hotel corridor outside, accompanied by the shaky image, gentle rubbing sounds and her footsteps could be heard.
Zhixi made her way to the hotel lobby and inquired at the front desk who had booked her room.
"It was Mr. He," the receptionist smiled and told her.
"Mr. He?" she murmured, repeating the name as her expression grew puzzled, even showing a hint of pain.
Evidently, recalling things was not an easy task.
She asked a few more questions, but none of them brought any answers. She had no choice but to leave the hotel.
The bustling traffic outside made her even more panic-stricken.
He Jingyao couldn’t see her expression, but from her hesitant footsteps, he could imagine the panic she was experiencing.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
A taxi stopped in front of her.
She hesitated for a while before she opened the car door and got in.
