C106

Lu Jianqing had already taken this road that connected Jin City and this road more than once, but every time, it was at the fastest speed possible to reach the traffic situation.

In just a few days, Secretary Zhou had already helped him deal with three traffic violations.

But why would he care about that? As long as he could see Xu Liunian in the shortest amount of time possible, he could delay the rest.

However, when the person in the car was the same person he was looking for, he slowed down for a rare moment as if he cared a lot about the distance between them.

It would be better if the woman next to him didn't snore.

Lu Jianqing shook his head and chuckled.

When one's speed was fast enough, it would take one more hour to complete the journey. In the end, it took them nearly three hours to reach the Jin City.

As the sky gradually darkened, the windscreen shone with a ray of sunset. The evening Jin City quietly arrived, and the entire sky was covered with an orange glow that shone onto Xu Liunian's face, looking exceptionally warm.

The eyelashes that had been quietly resting in her eye sockets fluttered once. With a slight frown, Xu Liunian woke up.

When he opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with confusion. He subconsciously raised his arms and stretched, but his hands were blocked by the roof of the car.

With that, she woke up, her back rubbing against the back of the chair, Xu Liunian sat up and looked at the scenery outside.

The sky was not completely dark yet, but the street lights were already fully lit, and it took Xu Liunian a good while to let out a surprised laugh.

"Jin City, this is the Jin City!"

She smiled happily. This was the first time in so many days that she had laughed so happily, as if she had forgotten all her worries.

She had originally thought that she was a person who had no one to rely on, and would always be by herself no matter where she went. However, when she returned a few months after leaving the Jin City, she realized how much she missed this city.

She grew up here. Even though her elder sister died here, this place carried many beautiful memories for her. Her most beloved man was here, her best friend was here, and she had lived for over 20 years with all of her memories here.

Despite the pain and the tears, she knew that she really couldn't leave this place.

"If you like it so much, why aren't you coming back with me?"

In a rare relaxed atmosphere, Lu Jianqing said first.

One sentence brought her back to reality. Thinking of what had happened in the past few days, she felt like she was going to run out of brain cells.

What she didn't expect was that she would return to this place after a nap.

She relaxed her body and sighed softly, "Isn't she back? "Don't ask."

It wasn't that she hadn't rejected Lu Jianqing before, it was just that previously, they had all been carried out under the influence of hysterical arguments.

Her refusal did not make Lu Jianqing angry, he turned to look at the excited woman and ordered, "You are not allowed to run."

Xu Liunian didn't know how to reply. She didn't even understand how she should walk in the future.

She had just returned to the Jin City, she really did not want to leave. As for the future, she would talk about it later.

Thus, Xu Liunian nodded her head in satisfaction, "I won't run anymore."

It took her a while to think of a question. "Where are we going?"

"Go home!"

Lu Jianqing replied without hesitation.

Returning home, she would definitely return with Lu Family. That's also good, she would have no place to go when she returned, so going to Lu Family was also a good choice.

She nodded and looked out the window. Suddenly, a familiar building came into view.

It was the Muse!

"Muse, stop the car, I want to go to Muse!"

Xu Liunian shouted anxiously, her head still leaning on the window as she looked in the direction of the Muse with longing.

Hearing her words, Lu Jianqing's feet lightly tapped the ground and the speed immediately increased, his entire face immediately covered with cold air.

"Just run towards that place when you come back. How lacking of a man are you? Once you leave that place, you will die, right? "

"I didn't!"

It was probably because the atmosphere was too peaceful, and the sudden questioning made Xu Liunian feel a little angry.

She turned around and explained to Lu Jianqing, "I just want to go see Sister Hong. She didn't even know when I left, and she might still be thinking about me now!"

Xu Liunian was so angry that he started to tremble. As expected, he still didn't believe her.

Hearing her explanation, Lu Jianqing's expression changed slightly. He did not reply but continued to drive forward.

Xu Liunian was angry, her arms crossed over her chest as she looked out of the window and muttered, "I can't communicate!"

This was completely unreasonable. What was there to say!

As she passed an intersection in front of her, she suddenly shook her body and the car turned around, heading in the same direction as before.

Of course, she knew what was going on, but she had already said what she was angry about. How could she continue to talk?

"No need to thank me."

Lu Jianqing said in a cold voice, his tone carrying a sense of pride. It must be because he felt sorry after his explanation, which was why he decided to drive back, and he must have been embarrassed to drive back to Xu Liunian.

This man was really annoying! He was even moved by a few words!

Since he said there was no need to thank her, she would not do so. After all, he had thought so much of her just now!

The car stopped at the entrance of Muse, and Xu Liunian got off, raising her head to look at the place where she used to work.

When she had escaped from this place a few months ago, she had hoped to start a new life. By then, the place had already been burnt beyond recognition and the entire building had been scorched black.

In just a few months, this place had been restored to its previous state, and was even more eye-catching than before. The fact that there were many people coming and going showed that Muse's business was not affected in the slightest by a fire.

"If you don't go in, then go home."

Lu Jianqing stopped the car and walked to her side. Seeing the yearning in her eyes, he felt disgusted, but since he was already here, he decided to let her see.

After this, he couldn't stay for long.

Xu Liunian tilted her head and glanced at the cold man beside her. In her heart, she was still grateful, so she didn't say anything and instead directly lifted her leg to enter the Muse.

In this kind of place, changing generations was extremely quick. Adding to the fact that quite a few people had died in the fire from before, Xu Liunian basically did not recognize any girls from the Muse anymore.

She was unable to confirm if the Sister Hong was still here, like a headless fly. Even if she wanted to grab someone to ask, she didn't know who she should stop.

The hall was as if it was brand-new, which also awakened Xu Liunian's heart, which had been silent for a long time.

She walked around, and finally decided to ask the bar, "Hello, may I ask if Sister Hong is still here?"
