Chapter 48 Operation to close the net

The night obscured his expression, making it difficult to see clearly.

The warm orange light of the city moves back from the car window from time to time, like a scene from an old movie.

She didn't know where Li Qizhi wanted to take her, so she asked aloud: "Where are we going? When will my brother come back?"

Just now, after Cheng Siyan subdued the middle-aged man, she received a call from the police station and left in a hurry, leaving her and Li Qizhi alone.

"You can give him a call."

Li Qizhi said, his voice still retaining the chill of early winter, low and hoarse, and seemed to have a kind of magical power to confuse people's hearts.

Cheng Suiran was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand in front of him.

"What?" He was confused for a moment.

"Lend me your cell phone." She explained seriously: "Our school doesn't allow you to bring cell phones."

Li Qizhi paused for a moment, then took out his mobile phone and handed it to her: "The password is four zeros."

When she heard this, she pursed her lips and smiled, pressed the screen to enter a series of numbers, found Cheng Siyan's number and dialed it.

The phone rang for a long time, but there was no answer until finally, it turned into a cold and piercing shutdown prompt.

She couldn't help but become worried, her delicate brows knitted together, and she murmured to her phone: "Why is it still turned off..."

"She should still be busy." He comforted: "Maybe I'll call you back later, I'll take you back first."

"Yeah." She lowered her head and answered absentmindedly.

The atmosphere inside the car became stagnant.

Until the phone rang again, it was Cheng Siyan calling.

Her expression changed and she quickly picked up: "Hello? Brother... why did you suddenly shut down your phone?"

"Ranran? Brother is fine. You go to Qi Zhi's house to stay tonight. Brother can't leave tonight." His voice came, calm and indifferent.

Cheng Suiran felt relieved, and then warned: "Brother, you must pay attention to safety."

She knew that her brother was going on a mission tonight, but she still couldn't help but worry secretly.

Cheng Siyan on the other end of the phone said "hmm" and continued: "Please give me your phone."

"Oh." She agreed obediently and handed the phone to Li Qizhi, who was sitting in the driver's seat.

He held the phone and said warmly: "What's wrong?"

"We can close the net on the murderer tonight. I am more worried about Ranran's safety, so I would like to ask Qi Zhi to help me protect her. Thank you."

"It should be." Li Qizhi nodded and replied. After a pause, he asked again: "Pay attention to safety and come to my house for dinner tomorrow."

There was silence on the phone for a long time before Cheng Siyan slowly uttered three words: "No problem."

After that, the phone was hung up.

Listening to the blind voice coming from the mobile phone, Li Qizhi squinted his eyes slightly, his eyes dark and unpredictable.

He looked sideways at the girl who was looking at him, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally drove towards home without saying anything.

The night was getting darker and darker, and she was sitting in the passenger seat, looking at the receding scenery outside the window, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.

"What's wrong?" Li Qizhi noticed the change in her mood and asked sideways.

"It's okay." She pursed her lips and said, pretending to be relaxed, "It's just a little cold."

"It's okay." He said softly, holding her hand with one hand and using a heat source to drive away the cold for her.

Feeling the heat brought by his palm, her heart skipped a beat, and her heart felt as if a stone had been dropped, causing waves.

She lowered her eyelids, suppressed the unusually complicated expression in her eyes, and then responded softly: "Yes."

The way back was not too close, and when he encountered a red light on the way, Li Qizhi raised the temperature of the air conditioner a few degrees, turned to look at the girl next to him, and said with concern: "If you are sleepy, just take a nap.

"

She nodded, leaned against the back of the chair, her eyes fell on the hands held by the two of them, and she was lost in thought.

She was speechless all the way. She just felt a little confused. She didn't know how long it took before she heard a faint rustling sound and was about to get up.

A few seconds later, a very light smell of fir trees enveloped her, and she felt her body light up as she was picked up by Li Qizhi.

She was startled and quickly hugged his neck and said in a panic: "What are you doing?"

He stopped where he was, glanced at her with lowered eyes, and said with hooked lips, "Don't be afraid."

These two words caressed her heart as gently as the spring breeze. Her body suddenly stiffened and she whispered in a low voice: "I'm not afraid."

On New Year's Eve, fireworks continue to bloom, bright and brilliant, lighting up most of the night sky.

The street is bustling with traffic, crowds of people, neon lights of various colors flashing with dazzling light, the whole long street is very lively, and the noisy and noisy sounds mix into the eardrums, making people's thinking a little slow.

Cheng Suiran lay in his arms and looked up at his profile. He saw that his thin lips were pursed slightly, his edges were sharp, and his brows showed indifference and alienation. Every move he made seemed extraordinarily noble.

Her heart moved slightly, and she couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "Li Qizhi."

Li Qizhi glanced at her, his Adam's apple rolled and he said "Hmm".

She closed her eyes and buried her face in his shoulder, smelling his special scent, and said softly: "You are really good."

So good that she was willing to give everything for him.

Hearing this, his body trembled slightly, then he raised his lips and smiled, and said lightly: "When you grow up and meet someone better, you won't say that again."

Will you meet anyone better than him?

Cheng Suiran leaned into his arms again and said nothing, but his eyes were a little sore.

During this time, she has been avoiding him. She is afraid that he really hates her, and she is even more afraid that she will never see him again.

Fortunately, none of this really happened.

The elevator gradually rose and reached the twelfth floor. As soon as the door opened, I met Grandma Wang head-on.

Grandma Wang's eyes fell on the little girl in his arms, and she smiled kindly: "Isn't that right? Did your legs feel uncomfortable? That's why you let your brother carry her away."

Cheng Suiran felt Li Qizhi's body stiffen.

Afraid of being put down, she closed her eyes tightly and secretly grasped his sleeves with her hands.

"She has very good legs." Li Qizhi responded calmly.

Grandma Wang was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Then why are you still holding her? You are a big girl anyway, and it is always not good for others to see you. Those who know you are brother and sister, but those who don't know think you are a couple."

"

Li Qizhi pursed his lips and said in a cold voice: "I can hug you if you want. Please give me a hug."

The smile on Grandma Wang's face froze, she smiled coquettishly, and stepped aside very wisely: "Then you go back and rest quickly."

Li Qizhi nodded slightly and said no more.

Cheng Suiran snuggled into his arms and laughed secretly.

Back in the apartment, he put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and said gently: "It's getting late, go to bed early."

Seeing him getting up and about to leave, she grabbed his sleeve and said, "What about you? Aren't you going to stay with me?"
