As soon as Qin Huan got out of the car, Jiang Jingchu breathed a sigh of relief. He faced Wen Li with a smug smile on his face.
"Han Xian just called and said he had an argument with Zhou Tiantian last night, and she ran off in a rage. He's been looking for her all day and can't find her. He's frantic now, and he's asking if there's any way you can find her."
Qin Huan was shocked when she heard this.
"They're getting married soon, why are they arguing now?"
He hurriedly took out his cell phone and called Zhou Tiantian, but the phone was turned off.
Qin Huan was a little bit at a loss for a moment. She searched her mind for Zhou Tiantian's favorite place and said to Jiang Jingchu,
"Let's go. I'm not sure where she is. We can only look for her first."
Jiang Jingchu said "hmm" and looked at Wen Li, indicating that he had won.
Wen Li's handsome figure moved and walked towards Qin Huan.
"What happened?"
Qin Huan was anxious and apologetic.
"I'm sorry, Wen Li. I might not be able to accompany you to the concert today. Something happened to Zhou Tiantian, and I have to go find her right away."
Wen Li knew that Zhou Tiantian was Qin Huan's best friend, and his eyes flashed behind his glasses.
"Is there anything I can do to help?"
Jiang Jingchu sneered from the side, showing his sarcasm.
"This is North City, not England."
The implication is that you don't even consider whose territory this is.
After saying that, he grabbed Qin Huan's hand and took her back to the car.
Through the windshield, their eyes met in mid-air, one full of contempt, the other forcing himself to remain calm.
Jiang Jingchu hooked his lips at him provocatively, turned the steering wheel, and drove away with the huge roar of the engine.
Wen Li stood there, looking at the direction they disappeared in for a long time, and finally turned around and got into the car.
…
Qin Huan took Jiang Jingchu to several places that Zhou Tiantian often went to, but she couldn't find Zhou Tiantian, which made her even more anxious.
Jiang Jingchu comforted her.
"Let's go meet up with Han Xian first and find out what's going on."
As a result, when we met and heard what Han Xian said, I realized that this matter was indeed quite serious.
Last night, Han Xian was drinking in Ueno. He got drunk and was taken advantage of by a woman. As luck would have it, Zhou Tiantian came over to catch him and caught him red-handed.
The two had a big fight at that time, and Zhou Tiantian ran away in anger. Han Xian thought she had gone home, and didn't want to continue arguing with her after returning, so he stayed in Ueno. But when he returned home this morning, he heard from his aunt that Zhou Tiantian didn't go home at all last night.
Han Xian became anxious and looked for her everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he called Jiang Jingchu.
Qin Huan was angry.
"Don't push the responsibility onto others. You should keep yourself clean and others won't have a chance to take responsibility."
Han Xian also felt aggrieved.
"I was pissed off at her. Ever since a new director came to her company, she's been calling me the director all the time every day when she gets home.
I've seen her director send her back to the community several times before, and I always tolerated it. But yesterday, he went even further. While we were having dinner, the director called and left me to go with someone else!
As soon as Qin Huan heard it, she knew it was the man's jealousy at work again.
"You don't know who Zhou Tiantian is. Ever since I've been with you, my heart has been devoted to you. When have I ever had eyes for other men?"
"That's because you didn't see how she looked when she was with that lousy director. She was grinning so hard that the corners of her mouth were stretched to the back of her ears."
"Okay, what's the point of saying this now?"
Jiang Jingchu couldn't bear to listen any longer.
"I just asked Gao Fei to check Zhou Tiantian's information. I think there will be results soon."
Han Xian leaned forward, put his hands on his hips and sighed.
"I'm so confused and anxious. Why the hell didn't I think of this earlier?"
Gao Fei's message came back quickly, saying that Zhou Tiantian stayed in a hotel near Ueno last night, checked out this morning, bought a plane ticket back to Nancheng, and has now arrived in Mingxi Town.
Han Xian was stunned after hearing this. He had been quarreling with Zhou Tiantian for so many years, and every time he coaxed her, she would be fine almost the next day. This was the first time he saw her hiding at her parents' house.
It seems that he is really angry this time. Han Xian is a little unsure.
"Qin Huan, sister-in-law! Zhou Tiantian listens to you the most. How about you bear the burden and come back to Mingxi Town with me to help me persuade her?"
After Qin Huan returned to China, she has never been back to Mingxi Mountain. She originally planned to wait for Yi Yi to come back and take her back with her, but now it seems that she has to go back earlier.
Sighed,
"What else are you talking about? Let's go."
Qin Huan was about to get into Han Xian's car when Jiang Jingchu grabbed her.
"Let's go together."
Qin Huan raised her eyebrows.
"What are you going to do?"
Jiang Jingchu said in a nonchalant tone.
"Why, Mingxi Town belongs to you alone, and I can't go?"
Seeing Qin Huan staring at him, Jiang Jingchu made a "tsk" sound.
"It's been so long since my grandma passed away, and I haven't been back to pay my respects to her yet. This is a good opportunity."
Seeing this, Han Xian also joined in.
"Yes, yes, wait for me to pick up Tiantian, and then we will go to pay our respects to her together."
Now that things have come to this, Qin Huan can no longer stop her.
The three of them flew back to South City overnight.
They got off the plane at two in the morning. When they arrived at the destination, there was someone waiting there and drove them all the way to Mingxi Town.
During the process, Wen Li sent a message to Qin Huan, asking her how Zhou Tiantian was doing.
Qin Huan briefly explained what had happened. Before she could say more, Wen Li approved her two days of leave, asking her to resolve the issue before returning to the company.
Qin Huan looked at the night passing by quickly outside the window, feeling a little sad. Recalling the hurt that flashed across Jiang Jingchu's eyes when she and he left, she felt even more sorry for him.
Jiang Jingchu sensed her mood change and thought she was homesick and thinking of her grandmother, so he patted her shoulder comfortingly.
Qin Huan glanced at Jiang Jingchu.
"Jiang Jingchu."
"Um?"
"Can I ask you a favor?"
"Can you please stop targeting Wen Li in the future?"
Jiang Jingchu tightened his grip on Qin Huan's shoulders, and a hint of mockery appeared in his clear eyes.
"Okay."
Qin Huan's eyes lit up and she turned her head to look at him.
"real?"
Jiang Jingchu's face was cold and hard, and he looked back at her with a deep gaze.
"Unless he disappears from your sight forever."
Qin Huan pursed her lips tightly, feeling annoyed at being teased by him.
Han Xian, who was in the passenger seat, couldn't stand it anymore and stopped pretending to be asleep.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not saying that Wen is an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf. Brother Jing has been kind enough to Wen. If it weren't for Brother Jing, he would still be..."
"Han Xian!"
Jiang Jingchu frowned and interrupted him harshly.
"Shut up and go to sleep."
Han Xian moved his mouth, glanced at Jiang Jingchu's ugly face in the rearview mirror, and then stopped talking.
Qin Huan, on the other hand, only listened to half of the words and was confused.
"It's okay. Let Han Xian finish his story. What favor did Wen Li receive from you? Why is he an ungrateful scoundrel?"
Jiang Jingchu stretched his long legs, which had been feeling uncomfortable all night, and leaned back on the chair.
"Nothing, Han Xian is just talking nonsense."
Qin Huan felt something was strange and wanted to ask again, but Jiang Jingchu had already closed his eyes and began to rest.
Qin Huan had no choice but to shut up and turn her gaze back to the car window.
It was still dark when the three of them arrived at Mingxi Town.
Gao Fei arranged accommodation for several people in advance, a total of three rooms. They took a short rest and went to Zhou Tiantian's house to find her when it was daybreak.
Qin Huan had been running around for half the night and felt a little tired. She went to the bathroom to take a shower and then lay down on the bed in her bathrobe.
Just as she was about to close her eyes, there was a knock on the door. Qin Huan frowned, turned over, and didn't want to pay attention.
Then, the phone beside her pillow rang again. Qin Huan glanced at the caller ID.
"what?"
Jiang Jingchu's low and hoarse voice came from the receiver, two words, concise and to the point.
"Open the door."
Qin Huan made a "tsk" sound, stood up, and opened the door in her slippers.
"Is there anything you can't talk about later? I'm very sleepy."
Jiang Jingchu squeezed in through the small gap in the door, carrying a handbag.
"Didn't you forget to bring a change of clothes? I'll bring it to you."
Qin Huan didn't expect Jiang Jingchu to be so thoughtful.
She just remembered that she forgot to bring clothes when she was taking a shower. After taking a shower, she washed her clothes and hung them on the air conditioner vent, planning to wear them later.
"Thanks. Here are the clothes. Go back to your room."
Qin Huan yawned and was about to see the guest off.
Jiang Jingchu ignored her and went straight to the bedroom and lay down on the bed.
"I slept soundly the entire night in the audio-visual room with you last night. I wanted to try again to see if sleeping next to you would improve my sleep quality."
Qin Huan yawned, with tears in her eyes. Upon hearing this, she looked at Jiang Jingchu in disbelief.
"You mean you want to sleep in my bed? You must be kidding."
Jiang Jingchu raised his hands, placed them on the back of his head, closed his eyes, and looked extremely tired.
"I'm not kidding you, don't worry, I'm just sleeping. I worked a full day yesterday and stayed up all night. I'm so sleepy."
Qin Huan was speechless, she spoke as if everyone was sleepy.
I glanced at the time and saw that it was only an hour or two before dawn. I didn't bother to argue with him, so I found a spot next to the bed and lay down depressedly.
When I woke up again, I was woken by a knock on the door.
