Chapter 97 Embrace
By the time Gu Huaichen received the call and rushed to the police station, it was already more than half an hour later.
He didn't expect that after he called Yan Shao yesterday to ask him to pick up Lin Youning at the police station, he would come to the police station himself to pick up Lin Youning today.
Thinking of the phone call Uncle Li just made, Gu Huaichen's expression turned slightly cold.
"I'm here." Yan Shao arrived at the police station before him and said in a low voice, "Don't get angry with Miss Lin. I just heard what the Lin family's servant said... I also think Lin Mingqi deserves it."
Gu Huaichen glanced at him and said nothing.
He strode into the police station and immediately saw the person sitting in the corner.
Zhao Tinglan was beside her, and both mother and daughter were silent.
Hearing the noise, Zhao Tinglan looked up at him nervously, "Huai Chen is here."
Gu Huaichen nodded, "Mom."
He looked her up and down. "Are you okay?"
Zhao Tinglan's eyes were red, and she pursed her lips and said, "I'm fine."
She stood up and said, "You two can chat."
Gu Huaichen shook his head, "You guys go out first, I'll take care of things here."
Zhao Tinglan was startled, "...Okay, let's go out first."
Gu Huaichen was the guarantor, and it was a family dispute. Although the Lin family wanted to say something, they shut up awkwardly when Gu Huaichen gave them a look.
In this matter, Lin Mingqi was at fault.
He was also out of his mind, not only did he bring the girl home, but he also made his legitimate wife become the mistress. Zhao Tinglan was a soft-hearted person, but Lin Youning was not.
Lin Youning has been spoiled since childhood.
And it was Lin Mingqi who spoiled him. Today's series of events were purely Lin Mingqi's own fault.
"Boss Lin." Gu Huaichen said indifferently, "My wife broke something. I have professionals here to appraise its value. You can pay for it, but my wife will also need to pay a certain amount of compensation."
Lin Mingqi couldn't believe what he heard, "What else does she want in compensation?"
Gu Huaichen sneered and said calmly, "Mental loss."
Lin Mingqi: "Boss Gu, please don't go too far."
"I haven't done anything excessive yet." Gu Huaichen reminded him coldly, "I'll take the person away first, Mr. Lin, please do as you please."
After saying this, Gu Huaichen asked Yan Shao to mediate, signed the agreement, and left the police station with Lin Youning and Zhao Tinglan.
After getting in the car, he looked at the silent man and asked, "Going back to Yun Gu Mansion?"
Before Lin Youning could speak, Zhao Tinglan spoke first, "Huaichen, take me back to the Lin family."
Gu Huaichen was stunned. Before he could speak, Lin Youning asked incredulously, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Zhao Tinglan's lips moved, "Ningning, he and I will eventually return——"
"There is no final destination." Lin Youning interrupted her without hesitation and looked at Gu Huaichen: "Let's go back to the mansion. My mother will stay in the mansion for the next few days. Is that okay?"
Gu Huaichen glanced at her and told Uncle Li, "Go back first."
Uncle Li responded.
When they returned to the mansion, Aunt Yang was the first to come out and greet them. "Is Madam okay?"
Lin Youning shook her head.
Aunt Yang hurried to see Zhao Tinglan, "Lin..."
Halfway through calling her name, she changed her words, "Ningning's mother, please go into the house and take a rest."
Zhao Tinglan was stunned. "Hello."
"Hello."
After a brief introduction, Lin Youning took Zhao Tinglan to the guest room.
There are guest rooms on the first and third floors.
Zhao Tinglan chose to live on the third floor.
After taking her to the room, Lin Youning asked her to take a shower first.
Zhao Tinglan didn't dare to say anything in rebuttal at this moment. She held the clothes that Lin Youning stuffed in her arms, and hesitated to say, "Ningning."
Lin Youning: “What?”
She was not in a good mood towards Zhao Tinglan at this moment. She really didn't understand what Zhao Tinglan was trying to do.
Zhao Tinglan pursed her lips and said softly, "I'm sorry."
"...That's not what I want to hear." Lin Youning raised her eyes, "Why don't you want to divorce him? Can't you see that the purpose of him bringing her back is to force you to divorce?"
How could Zhao Tinglan not see it, but she couldn't get a divorce yet.
She still needs time.
"Sorry." This was the only thing Zhao Tinglan could say.
Lin Youning listened, and was furious. "Take a shower, and then go downstairs to eat."
Zhao Tinglan hummed, "...Don't quarrel with Huaichen."
Lin Youning paused, "Why would I have a quarrel with him?"
Walking out of the room, Lin Youning thought about the impulsive thing she had done two hours ago, and was not sure whether Gu Huaichen would be unhappy.
She seemed to have caused him trouble and brought him shame.
Lin Youning stood at the stairs and thought, recalling the calm face of Gu Huaichen when he went to the police station. Was he angry? !
"What are you standing here for?" As soon as Gu Huaichen went upstairs, he saw someone standing in a daze at the staircase entrance.
Lin Youning raised her eyes slightly, met his gaze, and quickly admitted her mistake, "I'm sorry."
Gu Huaichen: “…”
He closed his eyelashes. "What are you sorry for?"
"…I'm sorry for causing you trouble." Lin Youning whispered, "Don't worry, if Lin Mingqi really wants me to pay for the things that were broken, I can afford it myself."
She knew very well that there was nothing particularly valuable in the living room.
Lin Mingqi is not like Gu Huaichen, who can put vases worth millions in the living room to arrange flowers. The vases in the Lin family's living room are only worth tens of thousands at most.
Hearing this, Gu Huaichen's temples jumped, and his voice sank slightly, "Is this the key point?"
Lin Youning felt a little guilty after hearing what he said, "...I was too impulsive. Did I embarrass you?"
Gu Huaichen: “…”
He closed his eyes and looked at her slightly ferocious appearance. "I think you need to take a shower too."
Lin Youning: “Ah?”
She looked down at herself, her face flushed, "I...I'm going to take a shower first, are you going back to the company?"
Gu Huaichen: "Don't worry."
Anyway, it was lunch time, so he ate lunch at home before leaving.
Lin Youning said, "I'll go back to my room then."
Gu Huaichen lowered his eyes and stared at her, wanting to let her go.
He paused as the words came to his lips, "Wait."
Lin Youning raised her eyes guiltily, her heart beating a little faster, "Wait... for what?"
Gu Huaichen walked up to her, lifted her slightly messy hair, and asked in a low voice: "Are you hurt?"
Lin Youning's eyes turned red and she shook her head, "No."
"Are you scared?" Gu Huaichen asked again.
Lin Youning was stunned, her eyelashes trembling slightly, "A little bit."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Gu Huaichen sigh. Then, Lin Youning was dragged into a clean embrace with a woody scent.
