Her original plan was to propose staying out for one night, after all, she had the three million card with her.
Whether Gu Xingze would agree or suggest staying at his house would be a matter for later.
But now it is clear that this card cannot be used today.
Where else could she go? She was just a poor folded-eared cat. She was unfamiliar with this place, and he was the only one she could rely on and trust.
So the result is obvious, she is also willing to play the role of a poor folded-eared cat to satisfy the cat owner's desire to be relied on.
"Can you help me arrange it?" she asked softly, raising her eyes.
The strange atmosphere that lingered between the two began to spread again, as if her vibrato was a switch.
Gu Xingze looked at her for a while and chuckled: "Listen to my arrangements? Are you willing to arrange to go to my place? Aren't you afraid of a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?"
She insisted on looking into his eyes and shook her head hesitantly: "But I only believe in you."
So it's the only choice when you're uneasy.
Gu Xingze liked the word "only". He raised his hand to help her brush the messy hair on the back of the chair. When he put it down, his palm slid down her hair with a gentle movement.
"Okay, then follow my arrangements."
He pressed a button in front of the seat and said to Assistant Lin in the cab: "Go to the source and clear the road."
Lin Te helped to regain his energy. He had not received any information about where he was going before, so he could only circle around the city center and then prepared to drive back to the apartment building closest to the company.
It happens to be Yuanqing Road.
I really need to take this girl back to the apartment.
Assistant Lin thought for a moment and took a different route to go around. It seemed like he was avoiding the congested section of the highway, but in fact it was lengthening the driving time.
Gu Xingze didn't understand his "good intentions" because he didn't bother to see which way was outside the window.
Yun Shu was a little tired and leaned on her position weakly. They were a little close, and she tilted her head slightly and pressed her forehead against his shoulder.
She moved away quickly when she first encountered him, but the car inevitably swayed a bit as it drove, making her whole body weak and sleepy. She bumped into his shoulder more and more often.
In the end, Gu Xingze simply pressed her head with his other hand and asked her to lean in. His fingertips brushed away the hair that had fallen around her ears, and whispered, "If you feel sleepy, take a nap."
Yun Shu obeyed and closed her eyes, breathing shallowly on the expensive shirt she was leaning on.
He was only wearing a shirt, and when she leaned closer, she could really experience the touch of his arm muscles against his face.
I just don’t know, that impressive curvature of the chest…
Why would she think about this?
Yun Shu closed her eyes and frowned. She forced herself to wash away the messy thoughts in her mind and tried to think about serious things——
I don’t know what’s going on with Zhou Jingmo.
…
Until the lanterns came on and it was time for a certain troublemaker to have dinner, Zhou Jingmo still couldn't find anyone.
The low air pressure had already affected Wen Jinnian, who sat on the side and remained gloomy without making a sound.
Assistant Zuo ran back sweating profusely and shook his head at Zhou Jingmo before speaking.
"Mr. Zhou, there is no one. Someone in the square saw Miss Yun running away, but there was no way to ask where she ended up. It would take too much time to search everywhere. It would be faster to check the surveillance cameras around the mall."
Zhou Jingmo frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's still not fast enough."
There is a time lag in checking the monitoring, unless all the real-time monitoring around here is called up to keep an eye on it at all times.
Moreover, it is already night now. If it gets dark later, it will be harder to find someone, and it will be more likely to cause an accident.
She was alone, still emotionally unfamiliar with the outside world, and meeting people with ulterior motives was a crisis. There were several large nightclubs nearby...
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became. He took out his mobile phone to make a call, and at the same time told Assistant Zuo: "Ask the surrounding shopping malls to adjust the monitoring, and then contact the transportation department to ask them to help."
If it wasn't for the late hour, he wouldn't have planned to make such a big splash.
Assistant Zuo hurried out again, and Zhou Jingmo also stood up and walked out, got in the car in the parking lot, and said to the phone caller: "Yun Shu is missing. Let's trace the card you gave her."
After making a few phone calls, he started the car, turned the steering wheel and drove out of the parking lot and towards the square.
When Ning Siyun received the call, he had just returned to the Ning family's old house.
I don’t know why Ning Siyu is so crazy. She insists on having a family dinner on this unceremonious day and bombards him with phone calls every half hour.
He could only endure his impatience and come back.
When he came back, he had to be talked about by his mother, and he had to talk to his father. On the contrary, Ning Siyu took one look at him and hid somewhere, and no one was seen for a long time.
After receiving the call, he stood up and was about to leave, but happened to bump into Ning Siyu who had just come in from outside.
Ning Siyu blocked the door and asked him: "Where else are you going? It's time to eat."
He frowned: "I have something to do, I'll come back tomorrow."
"What's the matter? You finally had a meal with me and mom, but you have something to do. If something happens to the artists in the company, you don't have to worry about it."
Ning Siyun was upset: "Sister, please get out of the way, I really have something to do."
Ning Siyu's indifferent attitude was no different from before, and no one noticed anything was wrong with her.
"Then what are you talking about? You can count on one hand the number of times you've gone home in the past few months. What's holding you back outside? Who did you look for after dumping Tu Yin?"
Ning's mother was a little unhappy when she heard this. She glanced at Ning Huazhi next to her and said, "Siyu, why do you say that? Siyun must have something serious."
Ning Siyu twitched her lips and saw that Ning Siyun's face was really ugly, so she got out of the way.
"Okay, let's go."
Ning Siyun said nothing and left in a hurry.
After a while, dinner was served at home. Ning Zhixia would not go back to this place unless necessary. Now that Ning Siyun had also left, there were only three of them at the dinner table.
One is an old director of the company, and he only talks about work; the other is in the wife circle, and only knows how to talk about the women of certain families.
And Ning Siyu didn't join the company and didn't like to listen to the stories of those condescending old women. She only knew about brand-name bags and which jewelry store was the most popular. The three of them had no topic to talk about, and they stopped talking after a few words.
.
Her mother was the only voice at the dinner table, talking and criticizing her precious son to maintain the harmonious atmosphere of the meal.
Less than twenty minutes later, Ning Huazhi stopped using his chopsticks and said he wanted to go out without any explanation.
Ning's mother was no longer surprised. She nodded with a dull face and turned to ask the nanny to bring her the bird's nest cup that she eats every day.
Ning Siyu went upstairs with her usual expression and came down carrying her bag.
"Mom, I'm going out too. I made an appointment with Jian Ling and the others to go to her birthday party today."
Ning's mother didn't want her to go out, but considering that the Jian family in her words was a good friend, she nodded in agreement.
"Come back soon."
"Know."
She drove a low-key white car from the garage, got in the car, and turned on the tracker display on her phone with an expressionless face.
The light from the mobile phone screen shone on her face, giving her a terrifying pale feeling.
