"Gao Yu, you and your parents can go in first. I'm really ashamed to have let you guys down."
"What about her?" Pointing at the petite figure on the ground, who seemed not to have heard the conversation, the man's expression turned cold. "Cousin Meilin, no matter what she did, she should be treated first."
"Little girl, can I take you to the hospital to have a look at your injuries?"
"Dad, mom, I must save this little girl."
My name is Leng Junyu, what's your name, can you tell me your name?
"Although I am relatives to them, it does not mean that my thoughts are the same as theirs. Although they beat you up, I am the one who sent you to the hospital. I can be considered your benefactor. You wouldn't treat your benefactor like this, right?"
"I'm sure you're not the kind of person my cousin's aunt would say."
"Cousin, she's always hitting you?"
"The next time she hits you, tell me and I'll protect you."
Un, Brother Junyu, I believe that you will protect Rou Er. Take Rou Er away, to a place with you …
Brother Junyu, I missed you. Rou Er missed you so much, without you, Rou Er wouldn't be able to live anymore, what should I do?
Brother Junyu, where are you? Do you hear what Rou Er said …
Capital Hotel
The bright morning light shone through the windows, but the air did not seem to feel the slightest bit of warmth. The tall figure lying on the floating window did not move at all, as if he had lost all life.
A few meters away from the floating window, on a single sofa, He Tao's face was gloomy and grave as he stared at the floating window.
Suddenly, the tightly closed door was forcefully pushed open. A figure speedily rushed in, and anxiously reported, "Chenxi, looks like Gu Rou didn't hide herself, but was possibly taken away by someone."
The person who came, was Gao Zhenglin.
As soon as he finished speaking, He Tao suddenly stood up and greeted him with a surprised question, "Boss Gao, what did you say? Gu Rou was taken? How do you know? Are you sure? "
Gao Zhenglin stared blankly at him, and did not reply with a question, "Where's Chenxi?"
He Tao also pointed to the floating window, and without delay, he walked over and shouted anxiously, "Boss Ji, quickly wake up, Boss Gao has news of Gu Rou, he said that Gu Rou did not leave alone, but was taken away, please wake up."
After saying that, He Tao did not hesitate to push Ji Chenxi down.
The figure on the floating window finally moved a little. Ji Chenxi slowly opened his eyes and slightly knitted his brows.
"Yesterday, the more I thought about it, the weirder it felt. You all said that Gu Rou ran away because she was angry and upset, but I felt that she wasn't that kind of person, thus, early in the morning, someone asked the manager of the hotel's control room to let us see yesterday's closed-circuit television. They found out that yesterday afternoon, about 3: 45 to 4 o'clock, there was an accident on the television in the hotel, there was no picture at all."
"From this, you think it has something to do with Gu Rou? Gu Rou was taken away at that time? " He Tao could not wait to answer as he had already made up his mind.
"That's right!"
"Boss Ji …" He Tao turned and shouted at Ji Chenxi.
At this time, although Ji Chenxi was not as muddleheaded as when he woke up just now, he was still a little absent-minded. He rarely went like this, and this made Gao Zhenglin and He Tao, who had known him for many years, surprised.
In the air, it was initially silent, but He Tao became more anxious, he could no longer endure, and continued to shout at Ji Chenxi in panic.
"Are there any problems with the security outside the hotel, the fire escape route, and the rooftop?" Finally, Ji Chenxi said this. He pinched his temples with all his strength, his eyebrows still knitted tightly.
Gao Zhenglin quickly replied, "Yes, we have already checked every place that has access to this place, and all the surveillance cameras have met with mishaps."
It looked like this wasn't an ordinary robbery. Just who was this other party? For what purpose?
Gu Rou was a complete stranger when she first came here. Other than the Ji Clan, it was simply impossible for her to have any interactions with other people, let alone form a grudge with them.
They were silent for a while, then Ji Chenxi found his own phone and called Ji Zijie again: "Big brother, do we meet again?"
After a while, Ji Zijie replied, his tone not very good, "What is it?"
"Mm, of course I have something to talk to you about. Moreover, it's something very important, doesn't Big Brother want to know more about me?" If we meet more and chat more, won't we be able to get to know each other better? "
"Alright, where should we go?"
"It's at the hotel where Gu Rou and I are staying. If it's convenient for you right now, come over here. "
Half a minute had passed since the call ended, and Ji Chenxi was still holding his phone, his head lowered as though he was thinking about something.
He Tao's face was also filled with thought, as he asked hesitantly, "Boss Ji, you think it was Ji Zijie who did it? But didn't he deny it yesterday? "
Although Gao Zhenglin did not speak, his eyes were still full of suspicion. However, he was not as nervous as before, and if it was really Ji Zijie's doing, then it meant that Gu Rou was safe. At the very least, she would not be harmed.
Ji Chenxi did not answer He Tao clearly. He only looked at them briefly, then walked past them into the bathroom to wash up.
Roughly ten minutes later, he showed himself in front of Gao Zhenglin and He Tao, and the elegant, noble, and calm Ji Chenxi was once again.
Just then, the doorbell rang. Ji Zijie arrived faster than he expected.
He Tao subconsciously wanted to open the door, but Ji Chenxi stopped him. He walked over himself and opened the door.
What entered his eyes was precisely Ji Zijie's arrogant and domineering look. A thought-provoking smile hung on his lips, as he looked at Ji Chenxi with a meaningful gaze.
Ji Chenxi also laughed lightly. His tall figure turned to the side slightly, respectfully welcoming Ji Zijie in, allowing him to enter first.
However, when he returned to the living room, he had already quickly caught up to Ji Zijie. They were on the same level, and his sharp eyes were observing Ji Zijie without leaving a trace.
"Where's Gu Rou? "Why didn't you see the little girl coming to greet me?" Ji Zijie asked meaningfully.
He Tao had not noticed anything amiss yet, but he still thought that Ji Zijie had snatched Gu Rou away.
On the other hand, Ji Chenxi calmly replied, "She's gone."
Gu Rou disappeared?
Hearing that, Ji Zi's gaze turned to Ji Chenxi in shock, he recalled what Ji Chenxi had told him on the phone yesterday, and asked hesitantly: "You, are you serious?"
"Yes, and she was taken." Ji Chenxi continued to answer truthfully.
Ji Zijie's expression became even more shocked, he stared at Ji Chenxi, and silently pondered whether what Ji Chenxi said was true or not.
"We checked the hotel's surveillance cameras yesterday, between 3.45 p.m. and 4 p.m., the hotel's closed-circuit television didn't have any screens at all. Gu Rou might have been taken away at that time." Gao Zhenglin said. It seemed like he had already vaguely understood Ji Chenxi's intention.
Ji Zijie continued to be shocked, his thoughts churning nonstop as he pondered whether or not he should believe their words. If what they said was true, then who was the one who took Gu Rou away? Logically speaking, Gu Rou had just arrived in Beijing, it was impossible for him to make enemies with others. The only possibility, was because of Ji Chenxi?
