What's going on? How long has it been? Is he busy with something? That shouldn't be the case. Usually, before she even says anything, Ah Lin has already sent her a good morning message.
As time ticked by, Qi Jiu's expression grew increasingly grim as she stared at her unresponsive phone. However, seeing the teacher still lecturing at the front of the class, she could only suppress her suspicions for the time being.
After all, Qi Silin had done this before, just very rarely.
As dusk fell and the school bell rang, her phone remained silent. Her chat with Qi Silin was stuck on the last message she had sent: "Good morning."
Seeing this, she couldn't sit still any longer. Even if there was something wrong, she had to find out what this guy was up to.
As soon as get out of class ended, the girl took off her white coat.
"Qiqi, is something urgent that you're in such a hurry?" Jiang Xin asked, somewhat puzzled, as she watched the girl prepare to leave as soon as get out of class ended.
If it were according to past habits, Qi Jiu would never be the first to take off her white coat, but now, she not only took off her white coat, but also rushed out. Although her expression did not change much, you could still see a slight anxiety on her face.
"Sorry, senior, I have something to do today. I'll help you with the experiment later when I have time."
As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up her phone from the table and walked towards the door.
Unexpectedly, at this crucial moment, a figure suddenly blocked her way. When she looked up, she saw Han Jiayin's smug smile.
"Junior, where are you rushing off to? Don't you know G is coming? If you beg me, I might be able to get you G's autograph."
Han Jiayin's hair was loose, and the white shirt on her upper body made her look fair and flawless. The short skirt on her lower body looked very playful.
But even so, in Qi Jiu's eyes, it's like a cucumber that needs a slap.
Normally, Qi Jiu would definitely have had the time and energy to teach her a lesson verbally; if China weren't a country ruled by law, she would have already slapped her. But now, there were more important things to do.
The girl's dark eyes were calm as she looked at her, devoid of emotion, as if she were looking at a dead object.
"Get out of here."
Han Jiayin was stunned and just watched helplessly as Qi Jiu left her side.
What happened?
They are all of Asian descent with black eyes, so why was Qi Jiu's face expressionless just now, yet her eyes were frightening?
She was about to say something more when she turned around and found that Qi Jiu's figure had already disappeared into the dim environment.
Looking up, she saw Chu Cangyu and Zhu Luoxing's gloating expressions. "You got yelled at, didn't you? You're really something. I'm always acting like a jerk around my godfather and I've never been yelled at, but you got yelled at with just one sentence. I'm really ashamed."
Han Jiayin: "..."
Meanwhile, the girl walking on campus grew increasingly serious.
She suddenly remembered their conversation yesterday. Today, Qi Silin seemed to be leaving China, saying he had something to take care of, but he glossed over the matter with a single sentence, so it didn't leave a deep impression.
So, was the reason there was no activity on my phone all day because of this?
As Qi Jiu opened her contacts, just as she was about to dial Liu Yun's number, she noticed a lonely figure standing at the school gate.
As the distance closed, the figure's outline became closer and closer, and the person's face became clearer and clearer in the dim light.
"Flowing Clouds!"
The sudden shout made Liu Yun turn around sharply, and then she ran towards Qi Jiu as fast as the wind.
"Miss Qi..."
Liu Yun was still dressed in his usual outfit, but the only difference was his somewhat solemn and even anxious expression. Usually quite composed, he now had his brows furrowed.
Seeing him like this, for some reason, Qi Jiu's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously.
"Where's Ah Lin?"
Liu Yun paused, her brows furrowing so deeply they seemed to trap a fly. She lowered her eyes, a hint of hesitation in her gaze. "Miss Qi, please come with me first. I'll explain on the way..."
Turning her head, the girl saw the familiar Maybach and its very ostentatious license plate.
But the figure waiting for her was no longer there.
Once in the car, Qi Jiu seemed to have a premonition that she wouldn't be able to return that day. Looking at the time, she didn't feel anything was wrong and immediately called Wei Huan.
In the end, she asked for leave after hearing Wei Huan's utterly dejected voice.
Sitting in the back row, looking at the empty space beside me, my brows furrowed even more.
Just a moment ago, he was acting like a domineering CEO in the lab, and he was investing in the lab at University A. Now he's gone missing?
"explain."
Looking at the familiar road, the little girl seemed to already know what to expect next.
"The master left by helicopter early this morning, accompanied by Liuguang. The master was going to discuss cooperation, so he didn't bring many people with him."
As he spoke, Liu Yun looked at the red light ahead, and without letting go of the accelerator, he ran the red light under the watchful eyes of other cars, and his speed never slowed down.
"As usual, the master brought a location tracking device and a live call recorder, but two hours after the master left, the location tracking device suddenly disappeared, and the live call recorder also ended. After that, there was no further news."
As he spoke, a look of shame and embarrassment appeared on Liu Yun's face.
“We sent many people in, but in the end we found nothing and couldn’t find our master. I had no other choice but to come to you.”
Qi Jiu nodded knowingly, glancing at Liu Yun's focused face as he drove through the rearview mirror. "Why didn't you go? Aren't you and your master inseparable?"
Liu Yun pursed her lips, glanced at the rearview mirror, and met the girl's dark eyes.
"My master ordered me to stay and protect you. Even if I can't protect you, I can still help out. In short, I'm at your beck and call."
Hearing this, Qi Jiu felt even more heartbroken.
This fool, even at a time like this he's still thinking about her. Liu Yun is clearly his own personal guard.
Suddenly, Qi Jiu seemed to remember something and tilted her head, "Where's Chong Yu?"
Come to think of it, it's been a long time since she's seen Chongyu. Even if he's on a mission, he should be back by now.
Liu Yun pursed her lips. "They're together."
Qi Jiu: "..."
Well, they went missing together.
It was the same familiar hill. After getting out of the car, Liu Yun picked up a brown coat from the passenger seat.
He gently handed the clothes to the young girl, saying, "Miss Qi, these are clothes that the master prepared for you before he left. It's cold and windy, please put them on."
Looking at the brown coat in front of her, Qi Jiu extended her hand. "Okay."
Upon reaching the summit, a helicopter was already prepared, and quite a few people were standing in front of it.
