She completely ignored this.

She couldn't care less.

"The young master is not home. Where did he go?" Yao Sitong was also very listless. Yesterday, she had called the Gu family and learned that Gu Jun was not at home. She was very worried about him.

"He went to work in Shanghai." When Qiao Ruo saw how worried she was, she told her.

Yao Sitong felt slightly more at ease.

After school was over, Qiao Ruo quickly packed her schoolbag and strode towards the school gate.

Gu Wanqi brought a few girls to block her way.

She wore small pink leather boots and sharply stepped in front of Qiao Ruoxi.

"It's fine if you seduce my brother, but you're still flirting with Chief Lin. You caused my brother to run away from home, do you know that?" Gu Wanjia roared angrily.

A few girls jeered behind her.

Qiao Ruo didn't have the heart to pester them at first, so she lowered her head and went back to another path.

She was going to find Lin Junyi and ask him about what had happened last night. The newspaper said that the man had been killed by a member of the military, and she thought that he should know who had been killed.

Dying outside Yanyan Garden, the newspaper said that in the south alley, these people had something to do with the Qiao family. She couldn't help but think about it.

Gu Wanjia watched her leave with hatred, her face turning pale.

After walking out of the school gate, she quickly got on a rickshaw and told the man pulling it to go to the garrison office in the northern part of the city. It was a bit far and she would urge him to hurry up from time to time.

When she got closer, she saw that a soldier standing guard at the entrance stopped her, asking her sternly about what she was doing here, who she was looking for, and so on.

Qiao Ruo Chu showed her girl's student ID card, saying that she had an urgent matter with Chief of Staff Lin. The soldier on duty sized her up and gave her a meaningful smile.

"Just you wait." He said that he had called the other soldier to inform him.

After a long while, when the sun had completely set and the sky had turned gray, Lin Junyi finally emerged from the darkness.

He was wearing a black and gray military uniform, followed by a group of people. As he walked, he was still discussing matters.

Qiao Ruo Chu felt that she had come at the wrong time.

It turned out that Lin Junmai was a very busy man.

Qiao Ruo Chu subconsciously walked far away.

Lin Junmai and his men waited at the door for a while before they split up, and then they drove away.

At first, Qiao Ruo thought Lin Junyi had forgotten about her, but after thinking about it, she decided it was useless to ask. Her father even suspected that Lin Junmai was the one who was trying to spy on the Qiao family's secrets, and she couldn't help but consider this possibility.

"Ru Chu."

She was hesitating when he came up behind her and called out to her.

Reluctantly, he stepped forward and grabbed her wrist.

His hand was strong, and she could not break free.

"I have something for you." She took a deep breath and lowered her eyelashes.

For some reason, Qiao Ruo felt that her heart was beating differently from usual. Whenever she saw him, her face would turn hot.

"Have you decided? "Will you allow me to devote my life to you tonight?" Lin Jun Mai tugged on the collar of his shirt, but didn't look serious at all.

Qiao Ruo knew that he was always like this and ignored him.

She opened her schoolbag. Lin Jun Mai glanced at a newspaper, immediately grabbed her by the waist, and quietly closed the bag again.

"This is not the place to talk." he whispered, his face grave.

Qiao Ruo was startled. Her forehead was covered in sweat.

"Let's go. Tonight, let this young master properly pet you." Lin Junzhu put on a loose and boisterous look and picked her up in his arms.

The soldier standing guard behind him snickered.

Qiao Ruo at first wished she could find a hole to hide in.

"Get Deputy Zhou to drive me home." He called to the guard on duty.

Immediately, a military jeep pulled up, the adjutant opened the door, and Lin Junmai got into the back seat, holding Qiao Ruoxi in his arms.

"I have to hurry home or my father will die of anxiety." After getting into the car, Qiao Ruozhu said pitifully.

She had wanted to ask him a few questions before she left, but seeing the way she looked now, she wondered how late she would be back tonight.

Lin Jun Mai lit a cigar and ignored her, "Feng Lin Mansion." he said to the driver.

The car sped toward the outskirts.

Qiao Ruochen was on the verge of tears.

"Arrange for someone to send a letter to the Qiao family saying that I will not mistreat his daughter." Lin Jun Mai threw his cigar out of the window, approached Qiao Ruochu, and ordered his aide-de-camp.

Giorgio was so angry with him that she could not help but resent Lin Junmai for not knowing how sad her father would be when he heard the news of his arrival at the garrison headquarters.

Ignoring the hatred on her face, Lin Jun Mai held her in his arms, put his mouth close to her nose and kissed her. A big hand was rubbing her back, and his breath suddenly became heavier and hotter.

Qiao Ruo Chu subconsciously shrunk.

When they arrived at the Maple Manor, Mrs Liu cooked wontons of meat for the two of them. Qiao Ruo first thought of her father and was not in the mood to eat, thus she responded.

Lin Jun had finished a big bowl in a short while, and was eating his fill with satisfaction, while his forehead was slightly dripping with sweat.

Qiao Ruo knew that he was very particular, so she imitated him by rinsing her mouth and washing her hands. She cleaned it so that there was not a single trace of odour.

"Mrs Liu, put away the hot water on the second floor." When everything was done, he told Mrs Liu.

Qiao Ruo Chu acted as if she didn't hear anything as she lowered her head and looked at him obediently. She didn't say anything and just sat there quietly.

Lin Junmai saw that she had behaved exceptionally well today, so he didn't say anything. He didn't say anything as he smiled slyly and satisfyingly, stroking her hair from time to time.

"Can you be more serious? I have something to talk to you about today. " Tired of him, she said disgustedly.

"You like it direct? "Come on, go up to the bedroom." He stopped and grinned.

Qiao Ruchu glared at him.

Lin Jun Mai picked her up in his arms and carried her to the bedroom on the second floor like a whirlwind. He then threw her onto the neatly made quilt.

Then he bolted the window and locked the bedroom door behind him.

"You, what are you trying to do?" Although he hadn't done anything to her last time, and she thought he was just teasing her, she was afraid of his manner today.

In silence he opened her schoolbag, pulled out the newspaper, and threw it in the trash.

He moved a chair to the side of the bed and leaned over her, shouting at her, "Do you have a brain? Did you come to my office with last night's report? "

Qiao Ruo Chu was stunned by his scolding, and her tears flowed uncontrollably.

"I just want to ask if those three people who died last night are related to the Qiao family." she said bitterly.

"How could it be unrelated?!" Lin Junbai growled at her again.
