Su An was also suddenly awakened by the sound, and immediately sat up with his eyes wide open.
Then he realized that he was still in the car!
"Finally awake?"
Lu Ziting's gentle voice, with a suppressed laugh, came from the side.
"Um……"
Su An responded subconsciously, and then realized that he didn't know how long she had slept in front of him, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then he hurriedly asked, "Senior, what time is it now..."
As she spoke, she reached for her phone.
Only then did I realize that even my cell phone was out of battery.
"It's almost eleven o'clock."
Lu Ziting replied softly, and when he heard that her voice was a little hoarse, he smiled and handed her a bottle of water.
"Thanks……"
Su An took it, but still felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Senior, why didn't you wake me up..."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Ziting suddenly stretched out his voice slightly.
"Of course it's because you're so adorable when you're asleep that I... can't bear to wake you up."
Lu Ziting's words instantly drove away all the sleepiness that Su An was still awake with.
She stared blankly at the person in front of her. Before she could answer, a light blush spread from her ears to her cheeks.
"I……"
Su An opened his mouth, feeling that no matter how he answered this question, it was not right, so he simply acted like an "ostrich" and spoke in a low voice at a rapid speed.
"Thank you for sending me back, Senior. I'll go upstairs first. You should go back and rest early..."
As she spoke, she reached out to take the seatbelt that was blocking her way.
But maybe because I was a little panicked, the buckle that usually opened with one press, for some reason, did not budge at all even after I pressed it several times today!
"What's going on..."
Su An muttered softly, and the more he couldn't untie it, the faster his heartbeat became.
Then she heard Lu Ziting seem to chuckle, and the next second, a graceful hand stretched out in front of her eyes, then covered her fingertips and pressed the seat belt buckle together.
With a "click" sound.
The small switch that Su An had been struggling with for a long time was actually turned on.
The seat belt also started to retract!
Then, it suddenly got stuck in mid-air!
Su An was still a little dazed, and subconsciously lowered his eyes, and saw Lu Ziting's fingertips pinching the seat belt that was about to be retracted, and he said gently, "Why don't you move away a little? If I pull it back like this, it will scratch your face..."
"Um……"
Su An responded subconsciously, and his heart began to beat uncontrollably again.
It seemed like the atmosphere between the two of them was a little different from the moment she woke up.
Senior, he...
Su An was just thinking about it when he saw from the corner of his eye that the person in front of him suddenly moved a little closer.
Her body froze, she didn't dodge, nor did she speak, but she couldn't help but lower her eyes.
Watching Lu Ziting holding the seat belt, his arm slowly passed over her shoulder and then over the side of her face until it was retracted into the slot.
There was another "click" sound.
It's especially noticeable in a quiet car.
There was no obstacle in front of Su An.
Lu Ziting's hand did not retract for a long time, but he did not touch Su An. He just formed a half-hugging posture. If he moved forward a little more, he would be able to hold her in his arms.
In the silent air, both of them seemed to have subconsciously given up breathing.
Su An's breath was filled with the gentle and pleasant scent of Lu Ziting, which made his heart confused, like a pool of spreading spring water.
Want to... say something?
She hasn't officially confirmed her relationship with the senior, so the senior will definitely not do anything.
But the atmosphere now is too...
Without looking up, she knew that Lu Ziting was staring at her without blinking. Su An couldn't help but tighten the hem of her skirt with her fingertips.
Just then—
“Buzz!!!”
Lu Ziting's phone suddenly started vibrating, instantly breaking the ambiguous atmosphere.
"Senior, the phone is..."
Su An finally found an opportunity to speak and hurriedly reminded.
"Um."
Lu Ziting also stood up instantly. Although there was some regret on his face, he quickly took out his mobile phone, took a look, and suddenly his expression changed.
"Hey, what's up?"
He asked straight to the point.
Su An sat obediently aside, subconsciously breathing lightly without making any sound.
Then, he didn't know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but he saw Lu Ziting's face suddenly became a little excited, and he kept saying thank you.
"Really? Tuo, this time it's all thanks to you. I'll treat you to a meal after this is over!"
After talking for a few more words, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Then, without waiting for Su An to ask, he turned to her and asked, "An An, guess who called just now?"
"who?"
Su An was stunned. Seeing him so happy, a premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
Could it be related to Tong's mother...
As she was thinking about it, she heard Lu Ziting speak.
"I asked a friend to keep an eye on the charity fund you mentioned. He's received news that the Su family's charity fund has begun screening recipients, and Lin Dong's mother is one of them. If nothing unexpected happens, the money will definitely be given to her in the end."
"Really!"
Su An's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this, and his joy was beyond words.
Then he suddenly thought of something and asked in confusion.
"But...they're using the name of public welfare after all. Even if the money is ultimately given to the prisoner's mother, can it be used as evidence?"
"Not yet, but we can investigate. We've found some other things."
Lu Ziting signaled Su An not to worry, then thought about it and continued to explain.
"An An, you know there are many charity projects of all sizes on the market. Some of them actually use the funds raised to help people in need, but some are half-truthful and half-sham."
"The one chosen by the Su family is one of them. We have discovered problems with their project, so according to the law, we can temporarily suspend all their public welfare funds and conduct an investigation. This will give us another opportunity to investigate the Su family."
"So that's how it is..."
Su An suddenly realized something, and in a flash, he suddenly realized something.
If Lin Dong and Ye Kexin really used charity funds to meet the conditions.
Now his mother has not received the money yet, and her medical treatment has been delayed...
The more Su An thought about it, the more excited he became. He could almost see the scene of Ye Kexin being sent to prison!
"An An."
Lu Ziting's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Su An's thoughts.
"Um?"
Su An responded casually, with some happiness and excitement that could not be hidden in his eyes.
Seeing this, Lu Ziting suddenly couldn't help but reach out and rub the top of her head, with a look of relief on his face.
"Alright, go upstairs and get some rest. Leave this matter to me. I promise to help you find out as soon as possible. Don't get so excited that you can't sleep when you go back."
"Senior!"
Su An was hit by his words and smiled somewhat uncomfortably.
There was finally some progress on Tong Ma's matter, and she was so happy!
It's possible to be so excited that you can't sleep...
"But...if you really can't sleep, you can call me. I don't mind telling you a story to put you to sleep."
Lu Ziting suddenly smiled and added another word.
Su An paused when he heard this, and the heat on his face, which had not subsided for a long time, seemed to be coming back because of his words.
A while——
"Senior, go back and rest early. I'm going upstairs first! Good night!"
This time, Su An finally didn't have the courage to stay in the car. As he spoke, he quickly got out of the car and turned to walk towards his home.
The car lights behind her lit up, illuminating the road ahead for her.
Su An's face was also filled with an unconcealable smile.
Everything seems to be moving in the right direction...
Really.
