"Send more people to look for her, especially the Ji family. See if she's there, and get all her whereabouts records for today."
"Yes, young master."
Xuan Mingyu tried calling Bai Xiaoruo on his cell phone, but it was always switched off.
He suddenly had a bad feeling. Could something have happened to that little girl? Her phone was always reachable.
Xian Mingyu hurriedly walked out of the airport, got into his car, and rushed back to make sure Bai Xiaoruo had returned home.
......
They had many topics of mutual interest, and Bai Xiaoruo and Ji Ziqian ate their meal, forgetting the time to go back.
When Bai Xiaoruo took out her phone to check the time and realized it was almost time to go back, she found that the phone wasn't responding even after she pressed the buttons several times.
What a coincidence! My phone died at this crucial moment.
Fortunately, Ji Ziqian's phone still had power. When Bai Xiaoru saw that it was almost 10 p.m., she excitedly stood up and urged Ji Ziqian to take her home quickly.
"Xiao Ruo, don't worry, is something wrong at home?"
"I, I..." Bai Xiaoru didn't know how to explain to Ji Ziqian for a moment. She had promised Xian Mingyu that she would go home early, and she didn't know when her phone had run out of battery. If Xian Mingyu couldn't reach her by phone, he would definitely be very angry.
"Anyway, Ziqian, don't ask me so many questions. Just take me home. I really have something to do."
"Alright then." Ji Ziqian didn't delay Bai Xiaoruo any longer. He called the waiter, paid the bill, and left the restaurant with Bai Xiaoruo.
The restaurant wasn't far from where Bai Xiaoruo lived in Junjiang District. Bai Xiaoruo kept urging them to hurry back, wishing she could take a rocket and fly back immediately so she could charge her phone and see if there was any information about Xuan Mingyu.
Although Ji Ziqian sped up, he still harbored a small selfish motive.
If we just send her back like that, wouldn't it be a waste tonight?
If he didn't seriously express his feelings soon, Ji Ziqian felt that he would never be able to keep Bai Xiaoruo.
We can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, we might really lose even the slightest chance.
He could no longer back down, no longer hesitate. Regardless of whether Bai Xiaoruo would accept him tonight, he had to try this time and take this step.
***
Ten minutes later, the car arrived smoothly at the entrance of the residential area.
This was the exact location Bai Xiaoruo had blurted out in her panic. She lived here, and it was the first time Ji Ziqian had ever dropped her off at the entrance of the residential complex.
She actually lives in Junjiang District.
Even if Ji Ziqian were ignorant, he would know that this place was not a place that just anyone could live in. Not only did one have to be rich and noble, and have a certain status, but one also had to wait in a long line for even a tiny chance of getting a place to live.
One of the villas inside alone is a luxury item costing hundreds of millions.
Thinking about this, Ji Ziqian became even more uneasy. What exactly happened to Bai Xiaoruo after she left the Bai family? How could she, an ordinary student, afford to live here? And who was secretly helping her?
Bai Xiaoruo hurriedly unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the door, and was about to get out of the car when she said, "Brother Ziqian, thank you for bringing me back. I'll go in first."
"Xiao Ruo, wait a moment!" Bai Xiao Ruo had just gotten out of the car and hadn't even closed the door yet when Ji Ziqian quickly unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car, walked up to Bai Xiao Ruo, and took her hand.
"Xiao Ruo, I have something to tell you."
"Brother Ziqian, what do you want to say?" This was the first time Ji Ziqian had gripped Bai Xiaoruo's wrist so tightly. Although Bai Xiaoruo wanted to break free, she didn't know how to start the conversation.
I couldn't very well be rude and run back without considering Ji Ziqian's feelings, so I could only try my best to listen patiently to him finish speaking.
"Xiao Ruo, I like you. I really like you. It's not a joke or a passing fancy. I hope you can give me this chance. Although I'm not very outstanding right now, I will definitely work hard to make you happy. I will cherish you, love you, and protect everything about you. Xiao Ruo, be my girlfriend."
"What......"
Bai Xiaoruo was still completely bewildered and hadn't reacted when Ji Ziqian suddenly pulled her into his arms, lowered his head, and precisely kissed her slightly parted, still surprised lips.
This scene was witnessed by someone in the back seat of a black Cayenne that had turned into the residential area two minutes earlier.
Instead of rushing into the residential area, the Cayenne slowly reversed a few meters, turned around, and then quickly drove straight towards Ji Ziqian's Maserati, which he had only bought a few days ago and which was parked at the entrance of the residential area.
A loud "Bang!" was heard.
The front ends of both the Cayenne and Maserati were severely damaged.
The front of the Cayenne was twisted so badly it was almost unrecognizable, while the Maserati was relatively less damaged. But regardless, whether it was intentional or not, given the huge price difference between the two cars, this was simply a reckless collision.
And they're playing with their lives.
But because of the sudden impact, the two who were kissing were startled, and Bai Xiaoruo quickly pushed Ji Ziqian away.
Oh my god! Ziqian actually... How could he kiss her without permission all of a sudden?
Ji Ziqian was also stunned. This was a birthday gift that his father had specially given him a few days ago, and it had been destroyed just like that.
