"beep--"
There was a busy tone on the receiver.
Su An hung up the phone and looked at Gu Jingchen with some surprise.
Then I felt my phone vibrate twice again.
Leng Yun's message has been sent.
Gu Jingchen said in a deep voice, "He probably won't show up in person."
"Um."
Su An nodded, having read the content of the message, "He told me to put the things on a table in a bar, probably wanting to take them away quietly."
"That's not right."
Gu Jingchen frowned, "We have no way of determining how many of his people are here. We have to decide the location."
As he spoke, he took Su An's phone and typed quickly.
Su An came over curiously.
After watching Gu Jingchen reply to Leng Yun, he said, "Gu Jingchen asked me to accompany him to a banquet tomorrow night. He's keeping a close eye on me, so I don't have time to go out alone. I'll leave my things at the winery where the banquet is taking place. You can find a way to get them yourself. Is that okay?"
【Can. 】
Leng Yun's reply was still quick and he didn't have any objections.
The matter was settled in this way, and it went on unusually smoothly.
Su An finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he found that his palms were covered in cold sweat.
A...it depends on tomorrow.
The next evening—
Gu Jingchen took Su An to attend a banquet hosted by a young master in the circle.
This kind of occasion happens every few days.
Gu Jingchen was always invited, but no one expected that he would actually come.
"Hey! Mr. Gu! What brings you here today? Aren't you busy lately? Looking for some excitement?"
When the guests at the banquet saw Gu Jingchen walk in, they immediately greeted him with wine glasses in hand.
Then he looked at Su An beside him and immediately teased, "This must be Miss Xia, right? Seeing is believing, she is a great beauty!"
"Hello."
Su An smiled politely at the other person, a little confused about what the other person meant by seeking excitement, but he didn't think about it too much, and his eyes couldn't help but wander around.
Leng Yun...she should be here by now, right?
Or is he not going to come in person at all?
While Su An was distracted, Gu Jingchen had already finished greeting the other party and pulled her to a corner with few people.
After that, he picked up a glass of wine, put his arm around her waist, let her lean on his arms, and lowered his head to whisper in her ear, looking like he was flirting.
"you……"
Su An's whole body stiffened, and his ears felt suddenly hot from the other person's breath spraying on his body.
Just as he was about to distance himself, he heard Gu Jingchen whisper, "Don't move, they won't come over. If you don't want to be surrounded by them..."
Su An immediately looked around when he heard this.
Then, as expected, those who wanted to come up and say hello stopped and walked away wisely.
After all, no one would interrupt others' intimacy without any courtesy.
Especially this person is Gu Jingchen.
Su An had no choice but to suppress his increasingly rapid heartbeat and continue to lean on Gu Jingchen.
I thought I just had to wait like this.
But unexpectedly, not long after, the lights in the entire outdoor area, including the lights in the villa not far away, suddenly went out!
This was followed by the sound of melodious music.
Su An squinted his eyes and it took him a while to adapt to the darkness.
Then I found that most of the figures in front of me were gathered in pairs.
She moved subconsciously.
His wrist was suddenly tightened.
"Don't move."
Gu Jingchen seemed a little nervous and pressed her into his arms again.
The next second——
Melodious music sounded.
Everyone started dancing in the dark!
Su An was confused and was about to ask -
My waist feels tight again!
Gu Jingchen actually hugged her and turned around half a circle, which was clearly the beginning of a dance!
"Gu Jingchen!"
Su An was stunned, his mind completely distracted, not understanding what was going on.
This dark dance party is so weird!
Gu Jingchen's voice suddenly approached——
“That’s how it is here.”
He had no intention of dancing, and moved Su An to the side.
He explained, "At this kind of party, the people who attend are basically those who love to have fun. They look for dance partners in the dark, and after a song ends, they have to kiss whoever they are with, and they can even... go out for the night."
Su An frowned when he heard this.
I finally understood why the other party said he was looking for excitement when he came here just now.
Because such occasions are nothing more than a game for people like them.
Since it's not this kind of game, why would anyone bring their girlfriend to participate?
Su An subconsciously tightened his hands around his chest.
She doesn't like it here.
Gu Jingchen seemed to sense her emotions and said softly, "I'm sorry, An'an, for the recent invitations, only this venue is the most suitable. The others are all in high-rise banquet halls. If Leng Yun comes in person, he might lose her. This is in the suburbs, so it's easier to move around. And I guess... Leng Yun should know what this party is about. The dark environment will also allow him to..."
“Buzz!”
As the two were talking, Su An felt his cell phone vibrate.
She hurriedly took it out, and sure enough, it turned out to be a message from Leng Yun!
"He told me to put the USB drive under the southernmost sycamore tree, and it would appear there."
Just as Gu Jingchen guessed.
The other party will not act unless they choose to do so in darkness.
"Um."
Gu Jingchen nodded.
Su An immediately turned around and was about to leave.
But suddenly fell into a warm embrace.
"An An, be careful, I'll... wait for you to come."
Gu Jingchen's deep voice made Su An's heart tremble.
It was hard to tell whether she was used to his gentleness or not. Su An's head was in a mess, and she could only nodded lightly, then immediately walked quickly towards the place designated by Leng Yun.
They were in the southwest of the garden, and it was quite a distance to the south.
Su An turned a corner and the noise behind him gradually quieted down.
There was no light in the manor, only the bright glow of the moonlight above.
Su An used his mobile phone to take a photo and came to the place designated by Leng Yun.
After that, she threw the USB flash drive she had prepared in advance at the roots of the tree, and then looked around.
Sure enough, there was no one there.
Maybe he was just watching there.
Wait for her to leave.
This inexplicable feeling of being monitored made Su An feel a little uneasy.
She didn't stay for too long and quickly turned and left.
A few seconds later—
A dark figure stood up silently from the nearby bushes.
Su An silently warned himself not to turn the corner. As he turned the corner, the music in his ears became louder and louder.
Su An couldn't see anything clearly and could only rely on his memory to walk in the previous direction.
But I accidentally bumped into someone.
"Gu Jingchen, is that you?"
Realizing that the other person had no dance partner, Su An asked subconsciously.
As soon as the words fell——
My wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone!
Her heart also skipped a beat!
This touch...
The other party is not Gu Jingchen!
