Yi Zheng braked and stopped at the intersection. Through the street lights outside, he could clearly see the blood on Shi Man’s face disappear in an instant.

No matter how careful they were, the uneasiness in Shi Man’s heart came true.

“Let’s go back.” Shi Man made a decision the moment she hung up.

Going back would mean giving up on continuing to track the car. They would miss an excellent opportunity to find Jun Mo’s hiding place.

But if they continued forward, Shen Xian’s fate was unimown.

Yi Zheng stepped on the accelerator and turned the car back to the hotel. On the way, he didn’t forget to hold her cold hand and comfort her. “Don’t worry. Tang Zhe is watching the hotel. Let’s go back and take a look at the situation first. It shouldn’t be too bad.”

“My heart is always in a mess.” Shi Man looked at the rapidly retreating street outside the car in frustration and muttered, “I can’t live without Shen Xian.”

In a moment of desperation, she even forgot to call Shen Xian her mother. She only muttered that she could not live without her.

To Shi Man, Shen Xian was not her biological mother, but she gave Shi Man a warmth that she had never experienced before.

Without Shen Xian, Shi Man would probably return to being the cold-blooded and heartless killing machine from before. She would become a stray dog and return to the darkness, never to see the light of day again.

To her, Shen Xian was a full moon that was enough to illuminate the night. It was bright and gentle, not as dazzling as the sun, but it gave her enough warmth.

The car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Sean hurriedly ran out of the car and asked, “Boss, why did you come back from outside? Why didn’t 1 see you come out?”

“Have you been here?” Shi Man stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him.

Sean nodded in confusion. “That’s right. Boss, you instructed me to keep an eye on this place for the entire day. 1 didn’t even dare to blink and kept looking at the door.”

Shi Man frowned and asked, “Then did you see anyone suspicious come in?”

Sean shook his head without hesitation. “Absolutely not. 1 was at the door the whole time. No one but the guests on the list had ever entered this hotel.”

“Got it.” Shi Man turned around and continued walking hurriedly into the hotel.

Sean jogged after her in a daze, wanting to know what had happened to make his boss’s expression turn so bad.

However, he did not have the courage to chase after her.

After Shi Man said, “Continue watching and don’t let anyone take advantage of the situation,” she walked into the hotel with Yi Zheng.

At this moment, the scene in the hotel was completely different from the engagement party.

During the day, this was a business place for drinking and chatting, but now, everyone was lying on the ground. One or two people woke up, but they were all holding their heads in confusion, looking like they had a splitting headache.

Shi Man casually grabbed a waiter and asked coldly, “Where are the Shi and Yi families?”

She had seen clearly just now that everyone in the ball hall was a guest on the list, but none of the people they were really worried about were around.

The waiter blinked blankly. After a while, his blurry vision became clear. After seeing Shi Man’s face clearly, he opened his mouth in surprise. “Miss Shi? Why are you here with CEO Yi? Didn’t Secretary Tang say that the two of you couldn’t handle the alcohol and had already gone to the guest room upstairs to rest?”

This was Tang Zhe’s excuse for the two of them suddenly disappearing.

It seemed that he would not be able to get anything out of this waiter.

Shi Man let go of the person’s collar and scanned the hall carefully again.

Yi Zheng took her hand and pointed in the direction of the stairs. “Let’s go upstairs and take a look. Aunt Shen is gone. They might be looking for her in every room.”

Shi Man’s eyes turned cold as she quickly walked up the stairs with Yi Zheng.

As soon as she went upstairs, she heard Su Tang shouting.

Shi Man walked over quickly and finally found her at the innermost staircase on the third floor. “What’s going on? What happened?”

“Manman! You’re finally back!”

Su Tang was so excited that she wanted to cry, but she still had something important to say. She held back her tears and said, “The ball was going well just now. I suddenly smelled a strange fragrance. 1 felt that this smell was strange, so 1 covered my mouth and nose and hid. Later on, everyone actually collapsed one after another. At that time, Mom wasn’t in the hall. I wanted to sneak out and look for her, but I was afraid of being exposed, so 1 hid under the small dining table.”

“Then Secretary Tang came in from outside. When he saw everyone, he covered his mouth and nose and ran out. He brought a basin of water over and woke up my brothers and Auntie Lu. I ran out with him and kept looking for Mom. Manman, what should 1 do? I searched for a long time but couldn’t find her!”

“A strange fragrance?” Shi Man’s heart skipped a beat. In an instant, all the blood in her body seemed to have been sucked dry.

Wasn’t that the same situation as when Immaculate was poisoned in the black market?!

Oh no!

Shi Man didn’t have time to listen to the rest of the content and ran upstairs in a panic..
