The night was as dark as ink.
A sapphire blue sports car sped along the highway toward Mount Li.
The driver was Shen Liao, and beside him sat Gu Xian.
Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu sat behind.
Chi Yexi wasn't in this car. He had a few events to attend, so he could only wait for two days before returning to Mount Li.
Seeing that Gong Lu had fallen asleep, Yan Zhengchen took the blanket over and covered Gong Lu with it.
At the same time, he helped him take off his glasses.
Gu Xian watched Yan Zhengchen's actions through the rearview mirror. He clicked his tongue and whispered, "Ah Chen, do you know that you look like a little wife taking care of her husband now?"
"Do you want to be abandoned on the highway?" Yan Zhengchen also lowered his voice and said slowly to Gu Xian.
"I'm just joking. Why are you so fierce?" Gu Xian turned his head and looked at Yan Zhengchen bitterly.
"Have the two of you heard something?" Shen Liao suddenly asked.
Gu Xian and Yan Zhengchen both looked at Shen Liao, waiting for him to continue.
"Three days ago, that person escaped from prison," Shen Liao said slowly. "It's the criminal who kidnapped Jiaojiao. He escaped from prison."
Yan Zhengchen and Gu Xian really hadn't heard of this before. Their expressions changed at the same time.
Back then, the mastermind of the kidnapping was also a very outstanding mercenary. After he was caught, because his attitude was very good and he took the initiative to confess what he knew about the case committed by his friend, his friend was arrested and he was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Originally, this person was going to be sentenced to death.
"Will he seek revenge on Jiaojiao?" Gu Xian said worriedly.
"He'd better not have such thoughts." Yan Zhengchen curled his lips coldly. "Otherwise, he'll definitely die."
"What I mean is, in order to avoid trouble, it's better to find someone to get rid of him." Shen Liao said lightly, "Anyway, he's a person who deserves to die. Living is a waste of air."
It was rare that Gu Xian didn't argue with Shen Liao. He nodded in agreement.
Yan Zhengchen thought for a while and nodded slowly.

The morning sun shone through the curtains into the room, accompanied by the crisp chirping of birds.
Awakened by nature, Chi Jiao sat up from the bed, rubbed her eyes, and looked to the side.
There was no one beside her.
Quan Jue was not in the room.
Chi Jiao's heart tightened. She took her phone from the bedside table and was about to call Quan Jue when she heard the sound of the door lock turning. Immediately after, the door opened from the outside and Quan Jue walked in.
"You're awake now. Go wash up and have breakfast." Quan Jue waved the breakfast in his hand at her.
Chi Jiao couldn't help but smile. She suddenly felt very blissful.
When she woke up in the morning, she had her lover by her side, and her lover had bought her breakfast.
Quan Jue had already eaten breakfast outside. He only packed a portion for one person and brought it back for Chi Jiao.
"Is this a fish ball?" Chi Jiao opened the lunch box and widened her eyes in surprise and joy when she saw the round balls inside.
"I don't know if you like them. I think they're quite delicious, so I bought some," Quan Jue said.
Chi Jiao picked up a fish ball with a bamboo skewer and placed it in her mouth.
A familiar taste immediately filled her mouth. It was the bouncy and smooth taste from her memories.
"Did you buy this from an old lady?" Chi Jiao asked excitedly.
Quan Jue nodded. "Have you eaten it before?"
