When Jiang Yu saw the message from Officer Li, he had just finished his work and was waiting for Officer Li in his car on the road he was sure to take.
When Officer Li saw Jiang Yu's text message, he knew that his captain had a crush on Miss Li! As they reached an intersection, Officer Li exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Xiao Wang, look, isn't that our captain's car?"
At this moment, Xiao Wang, who was driving, turned his head and exclaimed in surprise, "It really is the captain's car! What a coincidence! Should we tell the captain?"
"Okay, let's pull over for a bit." After saying that, he secretly glanced at Li Zhiyi. Seeing that she didn't say anything, he knew that the relationship between the two of them might be better than he had imagined.
Xiao Wang opened the car window and asked, "Captain, what are you doing here?" He genuinely didn't know that Officer Li had specifically told the captain they would take this route.
"Yes, I've come here to take care of some business."
At this moment, Officer Li had already gotten out of the car, and Li Zhiyi followed suit.
"Captain, do you have anything to do later? Xiao Wang and I still have some work to finish." Officer Li casually made up an excuse.
Xiao Wang asked, puzzled, "Didn't we just finish our work? Is there a new case? How come I didn't know?"
Officer Li frantically winked at Xiao Wang, who had absolutely no sense of logic. He was truly exasperated with Xiao Wang!
"What's wrong, Brother Li? Are your eyes bothering you? Why are you squinting?" Xiao Wang asked with concern.
Officer Li was truly exasperated. "Yes, yes, my eyes are a little uncomfortable. Let's go to the hospital to get them checked out." Then the two of them drove off.
Li Zhiyi and Jiang Yu were left standing there. Even though Li Zhiyi was naive, he could tell that Officer Li didn't want to take him home.
"Jiang Yu, does Officer Li regret taking me home? His eyes look perfectly fine." He just doesn't know what he did to offend Officer Li.
"Hmm, he might really have something to do. What's wrong? Wouldn't it be better if I took you home?"
"Okay, I just don't understand why Officer Li has to make excuses. He could have just said he had something to do."
Jiang Yu gave a wry smile. He knew she was simple-minded, and for a moment he wondered if he was being a little too despicable.
"Let me take you home."
"I'm not going home. Take me to the Blue Sky Hotel. I'm staying there tonight."
Li Zhiyi was still a little afraid that the young master Gu would suddenly go crazy. She remembered how domineering he was when he forcibly kissed her, leaving her completely unable to move. She didn't like the feeling of being controlled, so she wanted to stay in a hotel to avoid contact with him.
Just then, Li Zhiyi's phone rang. He looked up and saw it was Grandpa Gu calling. "Hey, Grandpa, why aren't you resting yet?"
"Girl, it's so late and you haven't come back yet. Grandpa is worried about you. Aren't you coming home to sleep tonight?"
"Grandpa, I'm staying at a hotel tonight. It's too late. I'll go back tomorrow."
"Okay, be careful out there, good night."
Goodnight, Grandpa.
Li Zhi hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that Grandpa Gu would insist that she go back to rest, since Grandpa Gu had been very good to her. She didn't really know how to refuse other people's kindness.
In the Gu family hall, Grandpa Gu hung up the phone and quietly placed it aside.
"Grandpa, did you hear that? She doesn't consider this place home anymore, so let's call off our engagement!"
“Child, Grandpa can see that you like the girl. Since that’s the case, why don’t you be brave for once? Grandpa wants to tell you that in this world, only time and true love can never be relived.”
Gu Siye knew that her grandfather wanted her to be happy and did not want her to marry into a powerful family for the sake of the family's interests. So, although her grandfather was eager to have a great-grandson all these years, he never forced her to marry into a powerful family.
"Child, Grandpa is old and doesn't have many years left to live, but you are still very young. Grandpa has experienced everything you are going through. I will only tell you one thing: love is something that, once missed, is truly missed. Think about it yourself. I'm going to rest."
He's really getting old. Lately, he's been resting more than he's sober, and he often reminisces about the time he met his wife, how handsome and dashing he was back then!
Gu Siye originally wanted his grandfather to agree to dissolve the engagement today, but now his grandfather wants him to make the decision himself.
He felt his mood worsened, which was not the outcome he wanted.
He turned and went out the door. In the car, he took out his phone and called the girl who had sent him many messages. He removed her number from his blacklist and called her back.
Zhu Jiayin was also at a hotel at this time, but not the same hotel as Li Zhiyi. She was at the Home Inn, which was not far from Li Zhiyi.
She wanted to break up with her boyfriend, Yang Jianjie, because she wanted to pursue a better future.
Yang Jianjie's family owns a small factory. Although they are not rich second-generation, they are well-off and often give her gifts. They try their best to satisfy her every wish.
Because Zhu Jiayin is very beautiful, and she is also very good at getting along with people.
Yang Jianjie was puzzled by his girlfriend's unusually proactive behavior today. Usually, when he asked her out, she would always find various excuses to go back to school and never wanted to spend the night with him.
Today, she took the initiative to ask to stay with him all night. He had already planned it out; he would propose to her next month, and she could stop going to school, since his family could support her anyway.
"Jiajia, what made you miss me today?" He asked Zhu Jiayin as he applied foot cream to her feet.
Zhu Jiayin, who was reading a novel, didn't understand what he was saying at all. She was still worried about how to break up with him later, so that he wouldn't bother her and Yang Jianli wouldn't forget her.
A pleasant cell phone ringtone came through, and Yang Jianjie paused, while Zhu Jiayin said anxiously:
"Get out of the way! Don't talk! My mom's calling!" Zhu Jiayin stood up anxiously and ran to the balcony to answer the phone.
Seeing her anxious look, Yang Jianjie thought to himself, "In the past, when her mother called, she would always tell me not to make a sound, but there was never any need for her to hide from me! Why is she acting so strangely today? She even went to the balcony to answer the phone and closed the balcony door."
"Brother, are you looking for sister?"
"Didn't you text her saying she went to a hotel? Do you know which hotel and which room she's in?"
“I know the hotel, it’s the Blue Sky Hotel, but I’ll have to ask my sister for the room number.”
