Du Ruqing felt the warmth of Lu Juyan's palm, and ripples rose from the bottom of her heart. She raised her head to look at his back, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips. Her cheeks were dyed a faint crimson red.
She obediently followed by Lu Juyan's side, deliberately turning her head to the side to prevent the other party from detecting that there was something strange on her face. However, there was a sweet feeling in her heart.
"What do you want to eat?" Lu Juyan didn't receive Du Liqing's refusal. He watched as more and more people squeezed towards them and placed a hand on Du Liqing's shoulder, so that no one would bump into her. Lowering her head to look into her dazed eyes, she couldn't help but feel that she was extremely adorable.
"I want to eat some vegetables." Du Ruqing subconsciously turned her head away from Lu Juyan's deep eyes, her cheeks slightly burning. Ye Zichen turned his attention to the shelves that displayed dishes in the supermarket, and subconsciously pointed towards the vegetables.
Lu Juyan followed Du Ruyan's livid gaze and looked over. He released the hand on her shoulder and directly grabbed her hand, pacing back and forth in the crowded crowd.
In the middle of the road, the crowd continued to crowd in. Lu Juyan was backed up by the person behind him, just in time to slightly loosen his grip on Du Liqing. Looking back, there was no trace of Du Liqing.
At this moment, Du Liqing had stopped in front of a lettuce rack. He looked to his side and discovered that Lu Juyan wasn't in love with her. His heart was flustered. He looked left and right, stood up on tiptoe and looked forward, but didn't see that familiar figure.
"Lu Juyan!" Du Liqing's flustered emotions caused her to subconsciously call out Lu Juyan's name, but she discovered that she couldn't get a response from the vast crowd. Turning around and looking at the strangers coming and going, a feeling of unease spread through his body.
These sudden and flustered words made Lu Juyan, who had turned around to look for Du Liqing, stop in his tracks. He tried to find Du Liqing from where the voice had come from. His height advantage allowed him to easily scan the surroundings, but he was unable to advance due to the large number of people.
Du Liqing subconsciously wanted to find Lu Juyan's figure and extend a hand to push away the crowd in front of him. Just as she took a step forward, someone from behind hit her on the back of the head and knocked her out.
The pain spread from the back of his head to his whole body. His body fell backwards and he fainted in an unfamiliar embrace. She faintly wanted to open her eyes, but she found that she couldn't use any strength at all. She could only hazily look at the few people wearing black clothes as her thoughts wandered away in a daze.
The man picked up Du Liqing and signaled a few men in casual clothes with his eyes. Then, he walked towards a place with fewer people. Ye Zichen walked towards the entrance of the supermarket as if he was very familiar with the route.
"Cyan!" Lu Juyan had been searching for Du Liqing in the crowd this entire time. The anxiety in his heart caused him to bump into quite a few people from time to time and receive quite a bit of cold treatment, but he didn't care in the slightest. Seeing that the back of a person who looked very similar to Du Yun, he hurriedly pushed away the crowd in front of him and walked forward to grab his opponent's hand. His heart was at a loss and filled with joy.
"You …" The woman turned around and her eyes shone brightly when she saw Lu Juyan's handsome face. Feeling his warm palm, her cheeks reddened slightly as she lowered her head bashfully. She swallowed the insults that she had just snapped out of her stupor.
"Sorry." Lu Juyan immediately released the restraints on the woman's arms. He turned around and surveyed his surroundings, but still didn't see Du Yun's figure.
His brows tightly knitted together. An uneasy and anxious expression had already spread across his face, and there was no longer the slightest calm and sternness from before on his face.
When the people in the commercial city gradually dispersed and Lu Juyan saw the few strangers, he never found Du Guyan. He directly stopped a supermarket clerk and anxiously said, "Call your supermarket manager out!"
"Sir, what is it? Are you not satisfied with our service? " The waiter was gripped by Lu Juyan's hand. His heart trembled as he looked at his face. He could feel the aura spreading out from his body, but he didn't dare to get too close to it. He pursed his lips and revealed a professional smile as he asked.
"Call your supermarket manager out!" Lu Juyan shot a cold glance at the waiter and once again repeated the words he had said at the beginning, unwilling to waste any more words with him. He frowned slightly as well, and his expression darkened as the pressure on his body began to decrease.
The waiter was a bit taken aback, and immediately turned around when he saw Lu Juyan's fearsome appearance. One of them accidentally hit the shelf behind him. It gritted its teeth and bit its lips. He touched the spot on his knee where he had been hit and endured the pain, preparing to head back to the supermarket manager's office.
"Sir, I'm the supermarket manager. What can I do for you?" Before the waiter could enter, the manager walked out from behind the two of them and leisurely walked to Lu Juyan's side. With a professional smile on his face, he asked.
Lu Juyan shot a cold glance at the supermarket manager, then took out the card in his wallet and placed it in front of him. He ordered coldly, "Go to the control room and bring out the surveillance tape for half an hour!"
The supermarket manager looked at the card in Lu Juyan's hand and saw the words "Excellent Era's CEO" written on it. His body stiffened slightly, and even the smile on his face froze. Noticing the eagerness in his words, she immediately smiled and extended her hand in an inviting gesture before bringing him to the monitoring room.
The two of them stood together in the monitoring room. The supermarket manager directed the staff there to call up the surveillance videos that Lu Juyan needed and to set down the most comfortable chair in the monitoring room for Lu Juyan.
He looked at the employee not far away and gestured for him to come over. He whispered next to his ears and instructed them to prepare a cup of tea. He didn't dare to be negligent at all, afraid that offending Lu Juyan would ruin his career.
Due to Lu Juyan's arrival, the surrounding atmosphere immediately became very quiet. The tranquil atmosphere here gave off a feeling of being mixed with the arrival of a storm. It was so oppressive that no one dared to make a sound.
"Manager, there just happened to be a blackout at the supermarket during this period of time." The staff member who was adjusting the surveillance footage was being watched by Lu Juyan, causing his hands to tremble slightly and cold sweat to trickle down his back. Looking at the black screen, he mistakenly thought that it was a broken computer. After a careful check, he finally understood the reason and turned to face the two of them to talk.
