C1229
The temperature of the "Underworld" wasn't very high, but their backs were quickly covered in sweat.
The taut nerves tightened and contracted, reaching their limits.
One hour later.
The computer screen suddenly turned black.
Beep... Squeak...
After a sharp and ear-piercing sound, a white light pierced through the darkness, and the strange picture appeared again.
Lu Yiyao and Ye Xiaochen blinked at the same time and then looked at each other.
"How is it?"
"No problem."
Ye Xiaochen took the teapot and poured two cups of tea. He gently pushed one cup to Lu Yiyao, picked up the other cup himself and finished it in one gulp.
"You first or me?"
Lu Yiyao tapped on the keyboard and pulled out the 'chip'.
"In that case, I'll go first …"
Ye Xiaochen put down the cup and his hoarse voice rose slightly.
"Alright."
Lu Yiyao pushed the laptop to him.
Ye Xiaochen closed his eyes and took two deep breaths.
Focus.
His ten fingers lightly rested on the keyboard.
Suddenly, he opened his heavy eyelids, and the light in his dark blue eyes suddenly became extremely sharp. The outline of his handsome face was very cold and sharp.
Ye Xiaochen's appearance seemed to match his identity as Young Master of the Dark Night.
Crackling.
Ye Xiaochen typed out the characters in his mind one by one.
Before he could check to see if there was a mistake, his ten fingers danced according to the memories in his head.
Lu Yiyao picked up his tea cup and sipped on it.
He did not look at Ye Xiaochen, but tried to calm his thoughts.
"..."
Yunjing.
First police station.
After Gu Mengmeng finished her statement and confirmed that there were no problems, she left the office hall with Minister Zhen.
A familiar voice called out to him.
"Mengmeng …"
Gu Mengmeng looked towards the source of the sound.
Not far away, a black Bentley was parked. In front of the car stood a young man in white clothes and black pants.
He called to her and then rushed over.
"Mengmeng, are you alright?"
"Gong Nanling, why are you here?"
Due to the presence of Minister Zhen, Gu Mengmeng felt a little embarrassed as her ears turned slightly red.
"Mengmeng, I'm sorry, I just found out …" Why don't you call me … "
Gong Nanling held her hand as if no one else was around, and carefully looked up and down.
"Mengmeng, are you hurt anywhere?"
"I'm fine, you …"
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips and glanced at him. Behind his ears, it was completely red.
"Miss Gu, I'm going back to the company first."
Seeing this, Minister Zhen was very tactful.
"Alright …"
Gu Mengmeng replied in embarrassment.
Minister Zhen smiled, returned to his car and drove off.
"Mengmeng, let's go. Get in the car."
Gong Nanling made sure that Gu Mengmeng was unhurt before leading her towards the black bentley.
He opened the passenger door and placed his right hand on top of the door, seemingly in a protective posture.
After last night's encounter with her, he had become increasingly attached to her and wanted to immediately marry her.
Gu Mengmeng lowered her head and sat inside.
He lowered his head, and the red scar on his neck became visible.
It was the mark Gong Nanling left last night.
Gong Nanling's gaze froze and his heart tightened. His heart pounded rapidly.
Some things were like Pandora's box. Once opened, they would be magic, unable to extricate themselves.
He loved her and wanted to have her completely.
Just like last night.
He had never thought that a wholehearted commitment could be so wonderful.
After closing the car door for Gu Mengmeng, Gong Nanling went around the front of the car and opened the driver's door.
"Mengmeng, seat belt."
He leaned over and tried to pull Gu Mengmeng's seat belt out.
Somehow his lips touched her hair.
The faint scent of cherry blossoms drifted to his nose.
Gong Nanling felt as if his heart was electrocuted. He felt numb...
There were countless pink bubbles in the air of the car...
"Mengmeng …"
Gong Nanling stopped what he was doing and looked at Gu Mengmeng quietly. The eyes of the peach blossoms sparkled.
"Ugh …"
Suddenly, Gong Nanling's handsome face enlarged infinitely in front of Gu Mengmeng's eyes.
Lips and teeth are connected.
Ye Zichen went over everything.
Finally, Gu Mengmeng pushed Gong Nanling away.
"Gong Nanling, what are you doing?"
"Mengmeng, I..."
Gong Nanling's heart was beating wildly and his heart rate was in chaos.
He quickly sat back down, opened the bottle of mineral water and took two gulps. He drank so fast that he almost choked.
"Cough …"
Gu Mengmeng's face was burning red, as if she was being roasted by charcoal.
Silently, she pulled on her seat belt and fastened it. He tilted his head and looked out the window.
"Mengmeng, I'm sorry. I can't help but …"
Gong Nanling finished the bottle of mineral water and calmed himself down. He turned to Gu Mengmeng and said nervously.
"Drive me back to the company."
"Oh, okay …"
Gong Nanling replied and started the engine. The black Bentley headed towards the Lin's Corporation at a leisurely pace.
After opening it for a while, Gong Nanling held Gu Mengmeng's small hand with one of his own.
"Mengmeng, what's going on today? "Why would Xu Jianan make a move on you?"
"She knows who I am …"
Gu Mengmengyu blinked her eyes as a trace of disappointment appeared in her eyes.
She was very much against him being the 'princess of the Dark Night'. He didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't want anyone to know about it.0
"How did she know?"
Gong Nanling asked subconsciously. Very few people knew about this.
"…"
Gu Mengmeng didn't say anything because she didn't know how Xu Jianan knew either.
Gong Nanling shook her hand and slowly let go. He grabbed the steering wheel with both of his hands. The rebellious eyebrow twisted upward. After thinking for a moment, he continued.
"Mengmeng, do you think she was the one who did that the last few times?"
"She?"
Gu Mengmeng was taken aback. She turned around and looked in front of her.
It was near afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Gu Mengmeng raised her hand to block the sunlight.
Gong Nanling immediately pulled down the sun visor.
"However, this Xu Jianan shouldn't have that kind of ability … "This person …"
"…"
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips and leaned her head back slightly. The tiredness in her eyes was really painful.
"Mengmeng, it's almost time for lunch. Let's go eat lunch first, then I'll send you back to 'the Lin's', how about it?"
Gong Nanling turned his head and looked at her, then pampered her.
"I'm going back to the company to eat …"
Gu Mengmeng's eyes were slightly closed as she responded in a low voice.
"I'll bring you to 'Yuxi' and have a taste of that new chef's cooking skills."
Gong Nanling's heart ached when he saw how tired she was.
"…"
Gu Mengmeng didn't say anything. It was unknown if it was because she didn't want to or because she was too tired to sleep.
"Mengmeng …"
Gong Nanling called her again softly, but Gu Mengmeng still didn't respond to him. At this moment, both her body and mind were truly exhausted. She even felt that it was very tiring to say even one more word.
She was so tired, on the one hand, because of work stress and frequent 'accidents'. On the other hand, Gong Nanling was really …
She thought they couldn't be together for the next few days.
