Chapter 333 How Can You Hide
Dinner ends after seven in the evening.
Zhang Pei and others enthusiastically suggested going to sing or a bar together to continue their happiness, but Yu Zhiming politely declined.
After Yu Zhiming separated from He Yingjun, Ding Ye, Zhang Pei and others, he did not go home directly. Instead, he accompanied Gu Qingning for a rare shopping trip.
Around eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming was accompanying Gu Qingning in a shopping mall to choose autumn and winter clothes when he received a video call from his elder sister.
As soon as the call was connected, Yu Zhiming heard a burst of shouts of "Uncle" and "Uncle".
When the phone's screen became stable and clear again, Yu Zhiming saw that the background image was of his parents' house.
A room full of people.
In addition to his parents and several nephews and nieces, Yu Zhiming also saw his second sister, third sister, second brother-in-law and third brother-in-law.
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but ask, "Sister, what day is today?"
"Why are you all at my parents' house?"
The eldest sister appeared in the picture and said with a smile: "This morning, your second sister's family and your third sister's family came together."
"Your third sister brought the money you gave her, as well as some nutritional supplements and gift boxes that Xiaobo asked her to bring."
Yu Zhiming said "oh", knowing that this was an opportunity for the family to get together and have some fun.
The eldest sister reminded him again on the phone: "Old Five, it's not easy for you to make a living in Binhai, and the housing prices there are so high. There's no need to always think about us."
"We have enough food, clothing, and money now."
Yu Zhiming said jokingly, "Sis, since you are not short of money, please lend me five million to buy a big house."
The eldest sister glared at him and said in feigned anger, "Old Five, I think you're itching for trouble again, aren't you?"
At this time, my second brother-in-law Qi Bin came over and shouted to the camera: "Zhiming, I have news to tell you. The couple in the car accident have woken up."
"They said there's no danger to his life."
Yu Zhiming smiled and replied, "This is good news. I hope they can recover as soon as possible."
Next, Yu Zhiming spoke briefly to his parents, second sister, third brother-in-law, and a few naughty children.
The phone returned to the eldest sister's hand. "Old Five, judging by the background, are you in the mall?"
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "Qing Ning said she wanted to buy some autumn and winter clothes, so I was dragged here."
"Shopping for clothes with Qing Ning?"
The eldest sister asked happily: "Where is Qingning? Let me talk to Qingning."
Yu Zhiming could only find Gu Qingning who was trying on clothes and gave her the phone.
Seeing Gu Qingning smiling and greeting the elder sister in the video and other people, Yu Zhiming knew that this call would definitely take quite a while.
He returned to the rest area and sat down, lost in thought...
More than half an hour later, Yu Zhiming finally waited for Gu Qingning to return the phone.
"We're not familiar with each other and don't have much in common. Is there really so much to talk about?" Yu Zhiming was a little confused.
Gu Qingning said proudly, "Who says we don't have a common language? There are so many topics to discuss."
"Big sister did say that the winter is even colder where you are. When I go back with you during the Spring Festival, I must wear something warm."
"I'm going to buy another big down coat."
Yu Zhiming quickly persuaded her, "Winter isn't much colder than Binhai, and we have heating, so the house isn't cold at all."
"As for the down jacket, wait until my sister is resting, then go out with her to buy it."
"We should go back."
Gu Qingning knew that it was good enough that this guy could accompany her for such a long time, and she couldn't ask for more.
She took the two pieces of clothing she had chosen and went to check out.
While Yu Zhiming was waiting to check out, he saw two elegantly dressed women, accompanied by a salesperson, looking for something in the store.
Not only that, they both kept shouting "mushroom" and "mushroom".
Yu Zhiming didn't care. After Gu Qingning finished paying the bill, the two of them reunited, carrying clothes and bags, and walked towards the store door.
Unexpectedly, the two were stopped.
The person who stopped them was a beautiful girl who was dressed elegantly and looked to be in her twenties or thirties.
"I'm really sorry, both of you."
"My friend's pet dog was just missing from the store. It's a purebred, show-quality teacup dog worth over a hundred thousand dollars, and it's small enough to fit in your pocket."
"If you two want to leave, you need to go through my inspection, or stay in the store and wait for my friend to find the pet dog."
Before Yu Zhiming could speak, Gu Qingning raised her eyebrows and asked in a cold voice, "Are you a police officer?"
"Do you have the law enforcement authority to search people?"
The intercepted girl was blocked and couldn't answer for a while.
When she saw that Yu Zhiming and Gu Qingning were dressed quite well and had extraordinary aura, she became intimidated.
She called out for help, "Sister Yueyue, come quickly, come quickly, there are two people here, I can't stop them."
Following the shout, a person in high heels came walking quickly and imposingly.
"I see who it is... Hey, it's you, Doctor Yu!" The voice immediately softened in the second half of the sentence.
A woman in her early thirties came up to Yu Zhiming and said with a smile, "Hello, Doctor Yu."
"My name is Pan Yue. I attended your health lecture at the Furong Club and also received a physical examination from you."
Yu Zhiming looked as if he had remembered something and let out a soft "oh".
In fact, he had no impression of this person at all, after all, so much time had passed.
Seeing the other party's happy expression, Yu Zhiming didn't want to keep the conversation a secret, so he casually asked, "Is your teacup dog lost?"
Pan Yue nodded and put on a sad look.
"I was momentarily distracted, and when I next came to my senses, the mushroom was gone. It had vanished without a trace."
"I've raised it for more than a year, and I'm heartbroken."
Yu Zhiming uttered an "oh" and looked back at the shop, which covered an area of more than 200 square meters. He focused his attention a little more and asked, "Isn't it barking?"
Pan Yue sighed and said, "If it's in an unfamiliar environment and leaves me, it will still cry."
"It's just that the sound of its cry is too soft."
"If it barks for a little longer, it loses its strength and can only hum."
"Now it should just be humming."
Yu Zhiming carefully distinguished the many noises around him and said to Pan Yue, "There's no sound of the puppy whimpering in the store, or it may have lost the energy to yell."
"Or, it's just not in the store anymore."
These words made Pan Yue's face change.
"Not in the store?"
"It's very likely that he was taken away by someone."
Pan Yue said anxiously, "Doctor Yu, I need to go to the mall management office and check the surveillance footage..."
After Yu Zhiming separated from Pan Yue, he and Gu Qingning went to the escalator and went downstairs.
This is an escalator that is more than 20 meters long.
Not long after Yu Zhiming and Gu Qingning got on the escalator, they heard a woman's voice.
"Xiao San, Xiao Si, I'm here, wait for me!"
Along with this sound, there was also the sound of footsteps, accompanied by obvious vibrations, coming from behind to Yu Zhiming.
As these voices intertwined, a plump, strong woman over 1.7 meters tall emerged in Yu Zhiming's mind.
Yu Zhiming "saw" the woman, shouting and waving, while her feet kept moving quickly down the escalator.
This made him frown.
"There's no intention of danger at all... Holy shit!"
Yu Zhiming muttered half a word in his mind, and then he "saw" the sturdy woman who was coming up behind him stumble.
The next moment, the sturdy body fell down towards Yu Zhiming and Gu Qingning in front of him with the force of a mountain.
Danger was imminent, and in a dangerous place like an escalator, Yu Zhiming didn't think twice and acted according to his body's dodging instinct.
He took a side step and arrived at the other side of the escalator as if teleporting.
During this process, Yu Zhiming put his right hand around Gu Qingning's waist.
With a sudden force, he clamped Gu Qingning around the waist.
When Yu Zhiming turned sideways and pressed his body tightly against the side of the escalator, Gu Qingning was also clamped to his chest and hugged with both hands.
As Yu Zhiming dodged at lightning speed, the sturdy woman lost her balance, grabbed around with her arms, screamed in fear, and just brushed past Yu Zhiming's back and rolled away.
“Ah…ah…”
“Boom…Boom…”
The woman rolled down the escalator which was more than ten meters long like a huge rock rolling down from the top of a mountain.
Fortunately, there were very few people on this long escalator. Apart from Yu Zhiming and Gu Qingning, there were two girls in front of the escalator.
They had more time to react and successfully escaped from the escalator before the woman rolled to their position.
As a result, only the strong woman was injured, and the others were not affected...
Gu Qingning's upper body was held tightly in Yu Zhiming's arms, and she could even hear the pounding heartbeat.
However, her side hip was pressed against the handrail of the escalator, which was painful and uncomfortable.
However, compared to the pain and the uncomfortable posture, Gu Qingning would rather be held in Yu Zhiming's arms like this.
This was the most intimate position they had ever been in.
Don't want to separate...
Gu Qingning didn't get to enjoy it for long before being put down.
She stood up straight and realized that they had already gotten off the escalator.
There were about 10 to 20 people gathered in front.
Gu Qingning could see the plump woman lying on the ground, her body stained with blood, her left arm twisted in a strange posture, and her right calf bent at 90 degrees.
The woman could only groan continuously and couldn't even cry out in pain.
The man's miserable condition made Gu Qingning feel a surge of fear in her heart.
She suddenly thought of something. If Yu Zhiming had not reacted quickly enough, she would have been lucky enough to avoid it.
The fate of her and Yu Zhiming might be even worse than that of the guy in front of her.
Gu Qingning felt an uncontrollable surge of nausea and reached out to grab Yu Zhiming who was about to step forward.
Just then, a man's voice sounded.
"Make way, I'm a doctor, I'm a doctor..."
The next moment, there was an angry shout.
"How could you hide? Are you still a man? If you had just blocked it a little, you could have prevented this man from falling."
"If you hadn't dodged, my sister wouldn't have rolled down and been seriously injured."
"that is!"
A female voice echoed, "You're a man, why are you hiding when you see danger?"
"Yeah, if we just hold him back a little, maybe we can stop him..."
Faced with these people's accusations, Yu Zhiming stopped moving forward to check on his injuries.
Besides, a doctor is already examining the injuries.
Yu Zhiming first protected Gu Qingning behind him.
He glanced at everyone and said coldly, "Why can't you hide? Avoiding danger is human instinct."
At this time, Yu Zhiming looked at a young woman with a pointed chin who was speaking in agreement.
"There's a puppy whining in your bag. Is there a puppy hidden in your bag?"
"Is it a teacup dog?"
