Nighttime at the Labyrinth Bar.
Pushing open the soundproof door, deafening music mixed with the smells of wine and perfume hit you.
"Wow!" Qin Yuwei exclaimed excitedly, grabbing Su Qianqian's wrist and squeezing in.
The bar has a huge interior space with a hazy, ever-changing light.
The central dance floor was teeming with people, who were wildly twisting their bodies to the powerful electronic music.
The booths surrounding the dance floor were packed with people, clinking glasses and laughing loudly.
At the bar, the bartenders performed flashy moves, tossing bottles and drawing cheers.
The air was thick with the scent of unbridled excitement and hormones.
Aside from a fleeting glimpse at Yunque last time, this was Su Qianqian's first time in a place like this, and she instinctively gripped Qin Yuwei's hand tightly.
Her clear almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, filled with curiosity and bewilderment as she looked around.
"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! Follow me!"
Qin Yuwei was clearly an expert, skillfully guiding Su Qianqian through the crowd to their reserved booth.
As soon as we sat down, a waiter brought us the wine list and snacks.
"Two of our signature Nebula Special, low in alcohol, please!"
Qin Yuwei deftly placed her order, then pulled Su Qianqian to her feet, saying, "Come on, let me show you the atmosphere!"
Without saying a word, she pulled Su Qianqian to a less crowded spot at the edge of the dance floor.
Qin Yuwei swayed to the beat of the music, her bright smile infectious.
Su Qianqian was initially a little reserved and her body was stiff.
But inspired by Qin Yuwei's enthusiasm and the atmosphere around her, she also tried to sway her body gently, clumsily but with a unique kind of innocent cuteness.
Almost the instant they stepped into the dance floor area, they were the focus of attention, both overt and covert.
Su Qianqian's pure and beautiful appearance, amidst the mesmerizing lights and the heavily made-up crowd, made her seem like an elf who had strayed into the mortal world.
Awe, curiosity, and even naked desire were directed at her without any attempt to conceal it.
Qin Yuwei noticed the gazes around her, winked triumphantly at Su Qianqian, and mouthed, "See! Our Qianqian is the center of attention!"
——
The top level of the Gu family conglomerate.
The meeting finally ended, and the executives, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, filed out one after another.
Gu Chengyu rubbed his temples, his brows still bearing a chilling expression, and stood up to leave the conference room.
Assistant Zhao Cheng then saw the message and quickly followed up, reporting in a low voice: "President Gu, Xiao Chen just sent a message saying that Miss Su went out with her friends to see a band performance and will be home late."
Gu Chengyu paused, his phoenix eyes glancing at Zhao Cheng: "Band? Which band? Where are they performing?"
Zhao Cheng felt a chill run down his spine under that gaze: "Xiao Chen only mentioned the band, but didn't mention the specific location or the band's name."
Gu Chengyu's brows furrowed instantly.
He took out his phone and dialed Su Qianqian's number directly.
A long busy tone came through the receiver, but no one answered.
He dialed again, but it was the same.
The man's already cold expression turned completely grim.
Anxiety and displeasure flashed across his eyes.
He quickly tapped his fingers on the screen to open the location tracking app on his phone.
Qianqian's phone was no longer the old one, but a new couple's phone that he had bought, and it was also connected to his phone's operating system.
On the screen, a small dot representing Su Qianqian's location flickered on a name he vaguely recognized: Maze Bar.
Gu Chengyu stared at the address, a vein throbbing slightly on his forehead.
bar?
Or is it a place like the Labyrinth, famous for selling male beauty?
An unnamed anger suddenly surged up.
Little thing, you've really gotten bold!
She dared to go to a bar behind his back? And even lied to her assistant, saying she was going to see a band?
He could almost picture her in that chaotic place, being coveted by all sorts of malicious eyes.
"Prepare the car."
Gu Chengyu strode towards his private elevator.
"Yes!" Zhao Cheng quickly followed, his heart pounding with worry for Su Qianqian.
