The next morning.
Gu Jiju got up early to find Chen Yuan.
When the door opened, Shen Yuan was sitting on the sofa in a daze.
His eyes, as dark as ink, were bottomless. At this moment, he looked at Gu Jiju coldly, as if filled with various emotions.
Gu Jiju couldn't notice it, and went up to him happily.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
Shen Yuan didn't say anything, just nodded in response.
The strange behavior made Gu Jiju realize that something was wrong.
"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Looking around, the room was empty.
Chen Yuan felt a little awkward sitting here, but he couldn't explain what it felt like.
Gu Jiju quickly stepped forward and asked about Chen Yuan's situation at that time.
"Are you unhappy? Or are you worried about Wen Zhi?"
Chen Yuan still shook his head and remained silent, causing Gu Jiju's inquiry to fail again.
The two looked at each other, and everything seemed to be explained without words.
Not long after, Gu Jiju stood up, took Chen Yuan's hand, and simply took Chen Yuan for a walk around the temple.
"Let's go for a walk. We can't just stay here for a few days and go nowhere. I think the buildings around here are pretty nice. I'll take you over to have a look."
Chen Yuan did not refuse and followed Gu Jiju's steps out of the side hall door.
But I have mixed feelings.
Ever since hearing that Gu Jiju and Bai Lan were still in contact, Chen Yuan felt that he was simply the one left out.
"Where is Wen Zhi's room?"
The two of them strolled along the way and soon arrived at Wen Zhi's residence.
But when I looked around, I didn't see any sign of anyone.
Looking through the window, Shen Yuan didn't see where Wen Zhi was, and a feeling of panic suddenly rose up.
"Oh no, Wen Zhi isn't here! Could she have disappeared? I remember that monk never let Wen Zhi go out. Even if she went out, she had to stay within his sight. But today..."
Having said this, Shen Yuan took a breath, fearing that the monk would attack Wen Zhi again.
Gu Jiju quickly grabbed Chen Yuan's wrist and gave him a firm answer.
"Don't be afraid, I'll send someone to look for him right away. We haven't confirmed his situation yet, so don't make any noise for now."
Chen Yuan nodded and followed Gu Jiju closely.
Unexpectedly, just before leaving the house, Shen Yuan stepped on a hard object, causing him to stop immediately.
Gu Jiju turned his head and asked in a muffled voice:
"What's wrong?"
"This is Wen Zhi's personal belonging."
Shen Yuan squatted down and picked up the small pendant that had fallen on the ground.
The dust on it seemed to have just been stuck, it was moist and fell off with a touch.
Chen Yuan was stunned and felt even more panicked.
"The pendant is here...Wen Zhi would never be so panicked when she went out. She wouldn't even know she lost the pendant!"
Gu Jiju didn't say anything, just watched Chen Yuan analyze things on his own, and at the same time felt a surge of fear.
"Wen Zhi would never go out by herself. I feel...it's still related to that monk! You wait here for me, I'll go back and ask."
Ignoring Gu Jiju's obstruction, Chen Yuan turned around and went back to the side hall of the temple.
The monk's bedroom was just around the corner, and Shen Yuan reached the door in no time.
Before she could raise her hand to knock on the door, the monk had already pushed the door open and came out. Before he took a step, he looked at Shen Yuan.
There was an obvious gleam in the man's eyes.
It was so terrifying that it seemed as if it was going to pull out Shen Yuan's tendons and skin.
"Miss, this is our private residence. Have you come to the wrong place?"
He smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes, which instead looked creepy.
"No."
Chen Yuan answered firmly, and seemed to be preparing to cause trouble for the other party.
This made the smile on the monk's face fall instantly.
"I just want to ask you about Wen Zhi's situation."
"What's going on with Wen Zhi? Why are you asking me? Did you find the wrong person?"
Shen Yuan was not brainwashed by the other party, and his attitude became even more determined.
Where can Wen Zhi go after leaving the room?
What's more, the video is still in the man's hands. If Wen Zhiruo leaves for no reason, what will happen to the video?
She always cares about her reputation and will never leave without caring about anything.
The two most likely guesses are that the man kidnapped Wen Zhi and wanted to take advantage of the crowd to fabricate the illusion that she didn't exist.
Or maybe Wen Zhi was so depressed that she was ready to end her life.
“You didn’t ask the wrong person.”
Shen Yuan's attitude was firm, and her eyes were fixed on the man.
"You just need to answer my questions: where did Wen Zhi go? When did she leave? Did she say anything to you before she left? This is very important to me."
"I have no idea."
Even though Shen Yuan had already started to ask questions, the other party just refused to fall for it.
The man curled his lips and his eyes were particularly sharp.
Seeing the way he shirked responsibility made Shen Yuan extremely angry.
"Wen Zhi and I are not familiar with each other. She didn't need to tell me where she was going. Besides, I don't care about her schedule, so I naturally don't know where she went. Sorry, I can't answer your question."
He seemed to be thinking seriously, but he didn't know that he was denying Shen Yuan word by word.
After he finished speaking, the man turned and was about to leave.
Shen Yuan behind him stared at the man's back, feeling that something was wrong.
There must be something wrong with this matter.
"how's it going?"
The monk left the room, and Gu Jiju came over following the sound.
Seeing Chen Yuan's distraught look, Gu Jiju knew that she had asked nothing.
But despite this, Gu Jiju didn't want to add too much pressure to Chen Yuan.
"fine."
