Chapter 304: Three and a Half Hours Left
The two leaders gave instructions for a long time before they reluctantly let Lu Youyou go to handle the formalities.
Before he knew it, Zhao Xiang had become an expert at writing "receipts". Ever since he met Lu Youyou, recycling national treasures has almost become their daily business.
Some time ago, Song Heting, a famous Chinese businessman in San Francisco, also donated a batch of antiques and cultural relics. It is said that the Song family and Lu Youyou are relatives.
Zhao Xiang never thought in his life that his hobby of donating national treasures could be contagious. We are a family, with a red heart for the motherland!
After Lu Youyou signed, she was ready to go back. For some reason, Zhao Xiang looked at her several times on the way she was leaving.
"Comrade Zhao, is there anything else?"
Zhao Xiang hesitated for a while before asking, "Do you know that a team from China is visiting the United States recently?"
"Yeah, I saw it in the newspaper."
Lu Youyou waited for a few seconds and then fell silent again. She turned her head and saw that Zhao Xiang still looked like he was about to say something.
"What's wrong?" Lu Youyou smiled. It was rare to see him like this in all the time they knew each other.
Zhao Xiang hesitated for a long time but finally swallowed his words. It is better not to talk about things that are uncertain.
"Nothing, are you going back to school, Lu? I'll drive you there."
"Thank you for your help." Lu Youyou did not ask any further questions. If there was anything, Zhao Xiang would definitely tell her directly.
"It's okay, it's okay. It's what I should do."
They were really scared during the dangerous time yesterday, so I felt more at ease sending them back to school in person.
Zhao Xiang leaned over to find the security guard and took the car keys. He took two steps outside and found that Lu Youyou was standing there without moving.
"Lu-san?"
Lu Youyou couldn't hear anything. She completely ignored him and everything around her.
The hidden longing quickly grew vines from every cell, entwining her bones and flesh.
At this moment, the only thing in her world was the familiar figure outside the door.
Even at such a long distance, she could still clearly see herself in his eyes, only her.
Lu Youyou subconsciously took two steps forward, and then ran towards the door almost uncontrollably with her legs.
Gu Qingye ran over here at a faster speed, opened his arms and let his sweetheart fall into his arms.
He greedily breathed in the fragrance in his memory, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally found its home until this moment.
Neither of them spoke, they just wanted to merge the other into their bodies.
After a long time, Gu Qingye held Lu Youyou's face with both hands, very close to him. His eyes fluctuated violently, and he had to use all his strength to restrain what he wanted to do now.
Lu Youyou didn't wait. She thought there was nothing to worry about on the other side of the ocean and she stuck to him the next second.
Gu Qingye's pupils shrank instantly, the shackles in his heart collapsed instantly, and he spoke back even harder.
Ten meters away, Zhao Xiang was held in place by the oncoming dog food.
He was not sure whether Gu Qingye could come before, and he didn’t want Lu Youyou to be hopeful and then disappointed.
That’s good now. There’s no need to hesitate. I guess he won’t be needed for the escort mission anymore.
It's not easy for a young couple to see each other, so it's better not to disturb them.
Zhao Xiang returned to the concierge and put the car keys back.
"Comrade Zhao, don't you need the car?"
“No need!”
The guard didn't understand either, so he could only shake his head and put the key away.
Outside the gate, the two people calmed down from excitement, and just like countless times before, Lu Youyou was the first to give in. Like a fish out of water, she could only bury her face in Gu Qingye's chest and breathe deeply.
The deep laughter penetrated her chest and reached her ears, making the temperature of her ears rise higher and higher.
"Why are you here?"
"How are you?"
The two of them spoke at the same time and laughed at the same time.
Lu Youyou quickly thought of Zhao Xiang's hesitation just now and came to her senses.
"You came with the delegation?"
"Um."
Lu Youyou was stunned for a moment. Wasn't it a delegation visit? Why was Gu Qingye here too?
"Are you in charge of security?"
"right."
Gu Qingye was not in a position to elaborate on the specific situation and could only give a brief answer.
Lu Youyou raised her head quickly, unable to believe that he would be absent from work: "You... sneaked out?"
"Of course not." Gu Qingye smiled and grabbed the hand on her waist, interlocking their fingers. "I'll take you back to school, and we'll talk on the way."
There was a black car parked on the side of the road. Lu Youyou glanced at the license plate and it seemed to be the embassy's car.
After getting in the car, Gu Qingye still held her hand and did not let go even when changing gears.
"How long can you stay?"
"Three and a half hours."
So fast?
Lu Youyou was stunned for a moment, thinking that the surprise would disappear in three and a half hours, the sudden joy would inevitably fade a little.
"My boss knows you are in California. He asked the embassy staff and learned that you were in danger yesterday..."
Gu Qingye suddenly stopped talking, and Lu Youyou felt her hand being held even tighter.
"It's okay. The crime scene is still some distance away from me."
Gu Qingye gently stroked the gauze on her hand with his thumb, as if to soothe his own heart.
When he heard the news last night, his breathing stopped.
At that moment he could hardly control himself. Even though he knew Lu Youyou was safe, he still wanted to come and see with his own eyes.
However, due to his duties, he could not mention it, and he even had to restrain himself from thinking about it and not be distracted.
He never thought that the boss would ask about Lu Youyou, and even generously gave him four hours of leave.
It took thirty minutes to get here, and every remaining minute and every second was precious.
Lu Youyou seemed to see a countdown hanging in the air. It was 3:30 just now, but now it has become 3:10.
She naturally turned sideways, her eyes tracing Gu Qingye's facial features, jaw, Adam's apple, and then the collarbone, chest, waist and abdomen hidden under the collar...
"Don't look at me like that." Gu Qingye's voice became a little hoarse.
Just a simple glance is enough to get on his nerves. It was like this before and even more so now.
Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Why not? The time is so short, I need to read it carefully so that I can recall it slowly in the future."
Gu Qingye felt as if there was a fire burning in his throat. He wanted to say something, but being able to meet was already a pleasant surprise. He was not even sure if he would have a four-hour chance before the afternoon.
His silence continued all the way downstairs to the dormitory.
"We still have time, why not go up and take a look?" Lu Youyou invited with a smile.
In fact, she couldn't bear to leave, not even for a minute.
He went upstairs seemingly calmly, and his hand didn't even tremble as he opened the door. However, the moment he pushed the door open, the temperature around him suddenly boiled.
There was no one in the room and finally, I didn't have to endure it anymore.
Gu Qingye bent down and picked him up: "Which room?"
Lu Youyou pointed to the left, and his breath was taken away the next second.
When she came to her senses, the barrier between them was almost gone, and the warmth from his fingertips spread outward, as if checking whether she was really unharmed.
"long……"
The eyes as bright as stars were obscured by the mist, but they were even more fascinating than usual.
