They did give Chief Su a chance.
"It's nothing." Gong Chengjue swallowed the question he wanted to ask, deciding it was better not to.
"Luo Jinhan," Su Ziqing called out to Luo Jinhan.
"Yes, Miss Su," Luo Jinhan replied.
"Why don't you take your Mr. Gong home first?" Su Ziqing said.
Luo Jinhan: "..." Uh, why?
Does this mean, Miss Su, you're not going back so soon?
Gong Chengjue looked at her and said, "Let's go back together."
Su Ziqing shook her head. "I still have things to take care of." She had to bring her senior brother back, and starting tonight, Feng Xixuan would be staying at her house.
In other words, starting tonight, she and Gong Chengjue... well, they'll have to be a reserved and obedient couple.
"It's precisely because you have something to take care of that I should stay by your side even more." Gong Chengjue didn't ask her what she had to take care of, but he felt that it was related to Feng Xixuan.
However……
"Senior Brother Lu will be here soon." As soon as the words were spoken, Lu Linghong arrived. They were also at the banquet. The reason why Lu Linghong was not with them earlier was because there had been an accident at the scene. One of the injured people happened to be a relative of the Lu family, so he accompanied him to the hospital for treatment first.
"Ziqing." Lu Linghong saw Su Ziqing with Gong Chengjue, but not Feng Xixuan, and immediately asked worriedly, "Where is Senior Brother?"
"I was invited by Chief Su to be 'investigated'," Su Ziqing said truthfully.
"What?" Lu Linghong thought he had misheard.
Su Ziqing shrugged helplessly, "You heard me right."
"Chief Su... is this the Chief Su I think he is?" Lu Linghong felt he needed to ask again.
Su Ziqing asked him in return, "Is there another leader in the capital with the surname Su? There happens to be a daughter named Su Enen."
Lu Linghong, "..."
Gong Chengjue had the illusion that he couldn't get in and was blocked from entering their circle.
At this moment, he felt that Su Ziqing seemed...very far away from him.
He couldn't help but reach out and grab Su Ziqing's hand; the cool touch felt somewhat unreal.
Su Ziqing touched his cold hand, turned her head to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong?" Her clear black and white eyes were filled with confusion.
Gong Chengjue said, "Your hands are a little cold."
Su Ziqing felt around for a moment, then honestly said, "It seems your hands are a bit colder."
The others present were speechless.
"It's cold, you should go back first." Su Ziqing looked at him, "I have something to do, I'll go first..."
Gong Chengjue picked her up domineeringly, with a hint of petulance in his voice, "Your foot is injured. Either you don't go anywhere, or wherever you go, I'll go with you."
There's no room for discussion, and I don't want to discuss it.
He hated the feeling of being excluded from the group, as if she had never belonged to him.
Su Ziqing was bewildered by his inexplicable possessiveness. This was not the time for him to act like a domineering CEO, was it?
"Gong Chengjue, put me down." There were many people in the hospital, so she could only whisper to him.
But Gong Chengjue simply carried her out in his arms, not caring at all what others thought of him.
Lu Linghong, "..."
Luo Jinhan cleverly caught up quickly; this was the Mr. Gong he knew.
Mr. Gong isn't so easy to talk to, just because you say so.
No, whatever he says is the only truth.
Gong Chengjue carried Su Ziqing directly to his car outside the hospital. Luo Jinhan jogged after him and opened the car door.
Gong Chengjue put Su Ziqing down outside the car. Su Ziqing looked at him speechlessly, "You can't come with me."
"Why can't I go with you?" He didn't see any place he couldn't go with.
Su Ziqing rubbed her forehead in exasperation, but before she could say anything, Lu Linghong, who had come over with her, spoke up for her, "The accident tonight caused quite a stir. You should go back and tell your family."
Lu Linghong didn't want to be with Gong Chengjue at all!
Especially after seeing Gong Chengjue act so domineeringly, disregarding Su Ziqing's wishes and carrying her away in front of everyone.
Haha, you can't make any promises, but you're letting everyone misunderstand?
Can Gong Chengjue himself be sure about the consequences of his marriage?
If he marries someone else in the future, will it mean that Su Ziqing will no longer be able to make a living in the capital's social circles?
Although Su Ziqing is indeed not involved in Beijing's elite circles, perhaps in the future...
Gong Chengjue didn't even consider her feelings!
Hearing Lu Linghong's words, Su Ziqing nodded and said very seriously, "Yes, there was a big commotion tonight. You should go back to the Gong family and put everyone's minds at ease."
“No one will worry,” Gong Chengjue said calmly.
Even if it's Grandpa, he probably wouldn't be... too worried.
Su Ziqing frowned, "Gong Chengjue!"
As they were talking, Gong Chengjue's phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and saw it was his grandfather.
He answered the phone, "Grandpa, yes, I'm fine."
The call ended in less than a minute.
Su Ziqing: "..." Why does it feel like his relationship with his grandfather has changed a bit?
Despite the news being blocked and not allowed to be reported, and not permitted to be forwarded on WeChat Moments or other platforms, and videos being deleted as soon as they were posted, a large portion of the people in Beijing still know about this major accident tonight.
And everyone who attended the banquet tonight, including their family members, knew about it.
People are dead! Such a serious accident, how could it all be over in less than a minute?
Wasn't Grandpa Gong very fond of him?
Why?
Su Ziqing looked at Gong Chengjue.
Gong Chengjue looked at her too, "Let's go, where are we going?"
"Didn't any of your family members call you?" Didn't his father or anyone else show any concern?
Gong Chengjue hummed in agreement.
What does "um" mean?
Su Ziqing looked at him, but didn't know how to ask, because Lu Linghong was standing next to her.
"Get in the car." Gong Chengjue didn't mean to play the victim, but unbeknownst to him, he paused and then said to Su Ziqing, "They don't care about this."
Su Ziqing felt her heart skip a beat when she heard this, as if someone had grabbed it. She looked at him and then suddenly gave him a big hug.
Gong Chengjue accepted the hug with great pleasure.
Lu Linghong looked at Gong Chengjue with a hint of disdain in his eyes. He was trying to win him over psychologically!
Gong Chengjue glanced at him, then looked away.
It's a self-inflicted injury ruse, so what? You can't use it? If you're so capable, try using it yourself.
"Get in the car," he said again.
Seeing that such a big thing had happened and no one in the Gong family cared about Gong Chengjue, Su Ziqing thought that if she 'dumped' him now, he would probably be even more upset. So she nodded and said, "Then you can come with us..."
Lu Linghong interrupted him in time, "Mr. Gong must have other things to attend to, right?"
