"Miss……"
Qing Ru pushed the door open and saw two people standing very close to each other. She was so frightened that her eyes widened and she quickly stepped back, her voice changing tone, "I... I didn't see anything."
As she spoke, she covered her eyes with her hands, but she couldn't help peeking through her fingers.
Zhou Youchen took the lead and took a few steps back. He felt his ears burning as if they were on fire.
He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look into Su Jinyu and Qingru's eyes.
Su Jinyu looked at her empty hands, the hard feeling still lingering in her mind. There was not much flesh on her face.
She smiled, regaining her usual composure, and called Qingru in, "Where are your clothes and medicine?"
Her voice was clear, breaking the awkward atmosphere in the room.
Qing Ru put down the clothes she had prepared, and her eyes glanced at the two girls like a curious little deer. The corners of her mouth slightly raised with a hint of cunning, "Did you come at the wrong time?"
As she spoke, she gently nudged Su Jinyu with her elbow.
Su Jinyu glared at her with a warning look in her eyes.
Then, she turned to Zhou Youchen and said, "Change your clothes."
After saying that, he pulled Qing Ru out of the house.
Qing Ruben wanted to tease her, but when he saw the young lady's deep thoughts and serious expression, he shut up tactfully.
As things become clearer, more and more people will be involved. Zhou Youchen's safety...
The identity of a police captain cannot protect him.
Mr. Zhou is just a scholar, and in this age where guns are used to speak, even that can't protect him.
Su Jinyu felt a little regretful for involving him.
Her brows were tightly furrowed and her eyes were full of worry, as if she was lost in deep thought.
Su Jinyu and Zhou Youchen stepped into the banquet hall again, and the noisy and bustling sound rushed over them.
The lights were bright, making the whole hall as bright as day. People were dressed in gorgeous clothes, holding wine glasses, and laughter echoed in every corner.
Her eyes inadvertently swept across the crowd, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Not far away, the tall and handsome man was Chu Jin.
He was wearing a well-tailored black suit with an exquisite silver collar pin on his collar, which gleamed coldly under the light.
He stood there like a lone wolf in the darkness, emitting a chilling aura.
The memories of the past came flooding back like a raging tide, and those painful scenes of being imprisoned and tortured kept flashing in Su Jinyu's mind.
Her face turned pale in an instant, her breathing became rapid, and her nails unconsciously dug into her palms, leaving crescent-shaped marks.
Zhou Youchen keenly noticed her strangeness, followed her gaze and saw Chu Jin.
He frowned slightly and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Su Jinyu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and said through gritted teeth: "It's okay, let's go forward."
But she could not take her eyes away from Chu Jin, fear and disgust intertwined in her heart.
Suddenly, a bold idea emerged in Su Jinyu's mind.
She turned to look at Zhou Youchen, her eyes pleading, "Please do me a favor."
Zhou Youchen looked at her eyes that looked for help, and although he was confused, he still nodded.
Su Jinyu took a deep breath and strode to the center of the banquet hall.
Her high heels hit the ground, making a crisp sound, attracting everyone's attention.
She stood on the stage, cleared her throat, and said loudly: "Thank you all for coming to the Governor's Mansion today to celebrate the 20th wedding anniversary of my father and Aunt Zhang."
Everyone's eyes were focused on the beauty in a red dress on the stage.
Zhang held Marshal Su's arm and looked at Su Jinyu in shock.
According to Su Jinyu's personality, it's not like she would do anything to enhance her appearance in such a situation.
Zhang looked at the Marshal, thinking it was his intention, "Jin Yu, what is this?"
There was some confusion in Su Dashuai's eyes, but he smiled and said to the people around him, "This girl, she doesn't like the limelight."
In the crowd, Chu Jin looked her up and down with an extremely aggressive look, without any concealment.
Su Jinyu's back was covered with cold sweat. She smiled and continued, "Hey, I have two gifts for you, father."
The banquet hall fell silent instantly, and everyone looked at her curiously.
"The first gift is about the recent arms case. Those present here may not know this, but this arms case is also a contribution. Without a blind cat catching a deadly news, it is not certain that the arms smuggling can be discovered. If the arms case is solved, the number of arms confiscated will be 1,200 rifles, 500 pistols, 300 artillery shells, and countless ammunition of various types..."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of exclamations in the crowd, and the sound of whispering came one after another.
Some were shocked at the huge number of arms, while others secretly speculated about the complex situation behind it.
Su Jinyu raised her chin slightly, and scanned the whole place, finally her gaze fell on the chief of the police station, "Is the number you said correct?"
The chief of police was sweating profusely. If the amount of arms was made public, he would have no choice but to agree to it.
She curled her lips and continued, "Now that we have the munitions, we need soldiers. I am willing to help you recruit more soldiers..."
The surrounding noise froze instantly, and all eyes were cast on it like a spotlight.
How much military pay is needed for one soldier? Anyone with a discerning eye can calculate it clearly.
This is a big deal.
Then, Su Jinyu paused, and felt her heart beating violently in her chest, with a "bang bang" sound that seemed to break through her chest.
She tried to steady her breathing and said in a clear voice: "The second thing, 놖놚 tells everyone that 놖 and Shen Jingan are divorced. Shen Jingan also said the reason for the divorce. They have different personalities and they are both fine."
Her eyes slowly swept across the stage, catching the sight of Shen Jingan stiffening slightly, then smiling.
Then he looked at Zhou Youchen under the stage. The moment his eyes met his, a different kind of warmth surged in his heart, and a gentle smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
"Some things are like this. We are getting engaged."
Her voice was not loud, but it was like thunder that exploded in the banquet hall in an instant.
After hearing this, the whole audience was in an uproar.
The exclamations and discussions of the crowd intertwined and surged in like a tide.
Su Jinyu felt countless eyes scanning her like searchlights, making her skin slightly hot.
But she did not retreat. She walked towards Zhou Youchen step by step, each step was firm and powerful, and the sound of her soles hitting the ground was particularly clear amid the noise.
She reached out and grabbed Zhou Youchen.
The moment her fingertips touched his palm, she felt his hand tremble slightly.
As if she was afraid that he would pull away, she quickly grasped his hand tightly and squeezed it hard.
