"This foreigner is called Dominic," Amin briefly explained what he had found out.
"When Deng Chaochao was kidnapped, we put a bug in his trouser pocket and heard the masked thugs in the car mention this name twice while driving."
"Even though he wasn't there, he was still very respectful. However, when he mentioned Gu Qin, he even called him an idiot."
Gu Boyan seemed to be lost in thought. His slender fingers bent and he unconsciously tapped the foreign white face on the paper, motioning Amin to continue.
"So, we guessed that this white guy was the leader of that group of thugs, so we looked up his name."
"Guess what he discovered!" When he said this, Amin was obviously excited, as if he was impressed by his own intelligence.
He leaned on the table and grinned excitedly.
Gu Boyan looked at him expressionlessly.
[Oh, Mr. Gu doesn't seem to want to play guessing game with me]
Amin next to him shrank his neck sharply, and his smile froze. He quickly hid his embarrassment and laughed twice.
He quickly returned to normal and said, "This guy returned to China with Gu Qin. If it weren't for Gu Qin, we might not be able to find this person."
"He was Gu Qin's classmate in the UK. They seemed to be on good terms. He was the partner of the company that Gu Qin opened in the UK that Huang Zhuyan mentioned."
"But this guy has a pretty clean background. He comes from an ordinary family. His parents are both ordinary white-collar workers in the UK. He probably helped Gu Qin out of friendship, plus he's new here and doesn't know the rules."
"Clean?" Gu Boyan chewed on the word for a moment, his voice unclear, and sneered, "So clean that they dared to snatch someone from us openly?"
Gu Boyan picked up the document, flicked his bony fingers at the photo, and finally threw the document on the table with a bang and said calmly: "Impossible"
"Go check it out." Gu Boyan, who was naturally sensitive to danger, said with certainty: "Especially his British background, it's probably fake."
Over the past year, clues have been mixed and confused in the sea of consciousness. Fragments of the dramatic changes in Chen Nian'an's family have emerged from the depths. The tangled mess seems to reveal a hint of a secret.
It is almost imperceptible in the vast amount of information.
But it was still caught by Gu Boyan, "Wait"
The two men who had received the order and were about to go down to continue the investigation turned around, and A Ming asked, "Mr. Gu, is there anything else?"
"You go..." The words suddenly stopped. Gu Boyan paused, as if he thought of something. He glanced at Chen Nian'an who was playing with a tablet on the sofa without raising his head.
In the end, nothing was said.
"Forget it, let's go check this kid's background first."
"Yes." The two were confused and left with the folder.
As soon as the office door closed, the two survivors breathed a sigh of relief. Ayi patted his chest with the folder.
"Damn, Mr. Gu scared me to death. I thought we would be scolded at least if not beaten."
"I didn't expect anything to happen!"
"By the way, do you think Mr. Gu's temper has improved now?" Ayi asked for a long time, but didn't hear any answer. He turned his head to look at Ayi who seemed to be distracted.
"Hey," he bumped into Amin's shoulder, "What are you thinking about?"
"You said that Mr. Gu seemed to be hesitant to speak just now. What exactly did he want to say?" A Ming raised his hand and stared calmly at the gentle foreigner in the photo.
This person seems very important.
Ah Ming pressed his rumbling stomach, his eyes bloodshot from staying up all night, and squinted heartlessly, "I don't know, maybe he wants to consult us on how to fall in love."
"Since my wife is here too, I'm too shy to ask in person."
"Let's go eat, I'm starving"
“…”Amin.
He didn't know how Yi, a bachelor who had been single for more than 20 years and relied entirely on his right hand, had the courage to say the word "consultation".
He had no choice but to give up. It was better to shut up than to play the lute to a cow. He patted Ayi's shoulder helplessly and said, "Let's eat."
If you don't eat any more, your cerebellum, which is the size of a fingernail, will probably shrink.
The footsteps and conversations in the corridor gradually faded away. Chen Nian'an didn't seem to pay attention to what the people were saying. His white fingers were swiping on the tablet.
It's like playing a single-player game, lazily leaning on the sofa, and taking a sip of milk tea from time to time.
Retracting his gaze, Gu Boyan leaned back in the swivel chair and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. Birds and clouds were flying above the city, and the azure sky extended to the distant border of City A.
He knows.
Downstairs of this tall building are employees rushing to punch the clock in, children jumping to school with backpacks on their backs, young couples riding electric scooters at traffic lights, and the aroma of sugar-roasted chestnuts wafting through the air on the roadside.
There are countless ordinary people who can live a peaceful and stable life.
They don't need bodyguards and can move freely around the city, coming and going freely, in peace and joy.
But a year had passed, a whole year, or to be exact, another month had passed, but he still couldn't give Chen Nian'an an explanation.
Both of them were silent, enjoying the brief pleasure, and kept silent, as if the crises lurking in the dark night and the beasts surrounding them did not exist.
"Gu Boyan"
A clear voice behind him suddenly interrupted Gu Boyan's drifting melancholy. He collected his thoughts, turned around to look at Chen Nian'an, and smiled softly, "What's wrong?"
The sunlight was like a strip of light, which, after being reflected by some unknown means, fell on the marble tiles between the two people, appearing quite colorful and beautiful.
"Look," Chen Nian'an smiled gently. She had wiped off her lipstick before drinking milk tea, so that her upturned eyebrows were particularly soft under the light.
