t after all. 。It was only recently that her thinking made this turn. In their relationship, she was the most innocent one, it was them who needed to hide and avoid each other, not her and her mother....His heart sank. He put down his cutlery and frantically searched for her.

"Listening to the waves"

I called out again, but she was still nowhere to be seen. I hurriedly pulled up the home security footage to see where she had gone

The gate creaked open, and she came back from outside. Her face was pale and clean, and she wore a knitted coat as if she still carried the dampness from the outside air.

He looked at her, and she looked back at him, both feeling a little bewildered.

He casually shut off the surveillance video on his phone: "You've gone out"

"Well, I just took out the trash."

To take out the trash That's obviously a lame excuse. The household trash is taken out every morning by the cleaning lady, but he didn't point it out. He just said, "Go wash your hands and have dinner."

"Okay."

She did act impulsively just now, wanting to listen to Shao Hui's advice and meet Gan An alone. But when she got to the entrance of the community, she suddenly missed Zhuo Yu'an. She thought he couldn't just leave like this; what if something happened to her and she couldn't come back What if Zhuo Yu'an couldn't find her and suffered for a lifetime

Thinking of this, tears welled up again. It's so frustrating. My emotions have been all over the place lately, I'm so fragile. This man in front of me pampers me so much that when he's around, I can't find the strength to be strong myself.

Zuo Yu'an saw her start crying again, and he fumbled around trying to find a tissue for her. She stopped him, though, and handed him her phone with a text message.

"Have a look at this."

Zuo Yu'an took the phone and looked at it. His face immediately turned pale, his dark eyes seemed to be covered in frost, icy cold. He didn't say a word and flipped the phone over on the table.

This makes Shu Tinglan a little afraid.

"What do you think" she asked cautiously.

"Eat." He said coldly, but the rise and fall of his chest betrayed the anger he was struggling to contain.

“I didn't go to the appointment,” she thought, she had wanted to go, but thinking of him, she came back.

Before he could utter a word, Zhuo Yu'an seemed to have reached his limit. He stood up abruptly with a bang, nearly kicking over his chair.

"I'm going out for a bit, you should get some sleep early." With that, he strode out.

"Zhuo Yu'an, where are you going" Shu Tinglan hurriedly got up to stop him, never expecting him to be so furious.

But Zhuo YUAN had already walked to the door.

"You're staying home, you aren't going anywhere." Someone had walked to the front door and used a cell phone remote to lock it from the outside, trapping her inside.

"Zuo Yu'an, you're back." Shu Tinglan took two steps toward him, but he was already gone. Locked inside, she pounded on the door desperately, but it was no use.

His face had been ashen ever since, and his whole body exuded an icy chill. Shu Tinglan was afraid that he would go out to find Gan An and get into trouble, so she hurriedly called Shao Hui and Lu Kuo, asking Lu Kuo to stop him.

Lu Kuo was at a gathering outside when he heard her briefly explain the situation. He blurted out "Damn it!" repeatedly and rushed to his car, determined to intercept Zhuo YUAN'an.

Shao Hui also received a call for help from Shu Tinglan. After hanging up, he called Zhuo Yunan. Zhuo Yunan answered his call quickly, but remained silent, waiting for Shao Hui to speak first.

"Zuo Yu'an, no matter where you are right now, stop immediately."

.......

In response to Shao Hui, there was still silence and the sound of a car speeding away.

"Zhuo Yu'an, do you know why Ting Lan changed her mind and didn't go looking for Gan An just now" Shao Hui asked again, his voice was steady and carried a sense of justice, making it impossible to ignore.

Upon hearing him mention Tinglan, his eyes softened slightly. He listened to Shao Hui continue.

"Because she's afraid that if something happens to her, you'll be heartbroken. Have you ever thought about it, if you go find Gan An now, and if something happens, she'll also be heartbroken"

....

Zhuo Yuyan still didn't say a word, but Shao Hui could tell his speed had noticeably slowed down.

"He's armed and dangerous, a desperado. What do you have to fight him with"

"Zhu Yu'an, we have a deployment plan, you need to follow ours."

And I want to add that Zhuo Yu'an has already hung up the phone.

Because Tinglan called him, he picked up and finally uttered a bland, "Hmm," remembering what Shaohui had said just now, Tinglan was afraid that if something happened to him, you would be heartbroken. So have you ever thought about it, if something happened to you, she would also be heartbroken.

Yes, what if something happened to him What would she do

"Zuo Yu'an..." A choked, panicked voice came from the other end of the line. It was Shu Tinglan, his words laced with desperation.

"Zhuo Yu'an... come back to me." The words were laced with pleading.

Zhuo Yu'an’s previous tempestuous emotions, which had been concentrated in his chest like a storm, dispersed bit by bit with her voice. Just as he was about to leave, another car screeched to a halt beside him. Lu Kuò, equally agitated, got out of the car. He rolled down the window and glanced at Lu Kuò, his eyes now calm, his tone even more composed.

“Move your car.”

Lu Kuo's car was right in front of him.

Lu Kuo roared, "Are you trying to drive me crazy! Can't I even have a decent meal in peace If you want to die, don't do it during mealtime!"

Zhuo Yu'an sat in the car, just opening the window to listen to him rant. When Lu Kuo finished venting, he said, “This is the most pathetic time in my life.” He couldn't do anything, and he couldn't even protect his own woman.

This is called being a complete coward. If you rush in now, not only will you die, but your rival, Yi MuYang, will die too. It's better to die bravely than to be a coward, isn't it

Zhuo Yu'an nodded in agreement, "Then can you move your car now Tinglan is still locked at home by me, I'm afraid she's going to go crazy."

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from his phone. It was Tinglan's, remarkably calm: "I'm not crazy, but I want to kill you."

Lu Kuai smiled and moved his car.

Zhuo Yu'an returned home the same way he came. Though the storm within him still raged, he had managed to keep it contained. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ting Lan sitting alone by the entrance, her eyes red and fixed on him. She didn't say a word.

His heart ached, he knelt down and hugged her, she pushed him away so he couldn't touch her.

He held her tightly, refusing to let her struggle any longer.

"That won't happen again."

Shu Tinglan didn't want to argue with him anymore, knowing he cared about her.

"Would you like to eat some more"

Zhuo Yu'an shook his head, he had no appetite anymore.

Zhuo Yu'an dialed Shao Hui's phone again.

"I don't care what your real-world deployment is I want to be involved." He was very straightforward.

"That superior has made the rules, no way." Shao Hui refused outright.

"I don't care about your so-called rules. Since you want me to cooperate with you, you must also cooperate with me. This is not just your business anymore, it affects our safety. I have the right to know what kind of danger we are in."

"Shao Hui, you know what happened today. I don't want it to happen again."Law Firm, whom we have also met, spoke highly of you."Lan Xiao shan didn't hide his admiration for Shu Tinglan at all, so he no longer mentioned his past work experience. He only asked about Shu Tingl...
