After a few days of rest, Su Yu returned to Linjiang Hotel.
Colleagues came over to inquire about her relationship with Shao Jinglin, secretly or covertly. Their eyes were shining with curiosity and wanting to see if they could get some benefit from it.
Su Yu explained: "He and I only met seven years ago. Their village was where I went to the countryside at that time, but we have nothing to do with him now."
"Mr. Shao is a nice person. He only helped me because of our acquaintance. Moreover, he has returned to the capital now. I don't know whether we will meet again in the future. If you have anything, you can ask him for help. But don’t expect me to say it.”
Su Yu vaccinated them in advance.
Colleagues looked at each other: "But Mr. Shao came here for dinner yesterday and said he would stay in Jiangcheng for one more week."
Su Yu opened her eyes wide: "Huh?"
Why didn't she know?
And when we met on the street that day, didn’t he say he was leaving?
Thinking of the last time, Su Yu's eyes gradually became distracted and she stared blankly ahead.
Shao Jinglin asked her to divorce her "dead ghost" husband and give her money on the condition that she stay with him.
She was so shocked that she couldn't speak
Everything happened so suddenly.
Su Yu seriously suspected that there was fraud, and even wondered if Shao Jinglin had lied to her, but in fact he was just trying to keep her in his hands to avenge her for what happened seven years ago.
Fortunately, my little nephew was so strong that he cried and clamored to go home.
She refused hastily and left with her nephew.
When she turned around the end of the street, Su Yu quietly looked back. Shao Jinglin hadn't left yet. He seemed to be staring at her, and he didn't look away from her. There were incomprehensible emotions in his eyes, and she instantly felt a wave of pain on her back. cold.
Now that she heard that Shao Jinglin had not left Jiangcheng and would stay here for one more week, Su Yu inevitably wondered if it was because of herself.
That last look comes to mind.
Su Yu's heart was tingling, her back was a little cold, and she couldn't help but shiver.
The next second, there was a slap on the back.
"Why are you dazed? Hurry up and get to work."
Su Yu suddenly came back to her senses: "Ah, here we come."
She quickly put aside her previous thoughts and thought to herself that she was overthinking it. When she regained consciousness, she immediately stood up and followed him.
I was busy all day today, until it got dark.
The colleague who was changing shifts with Su Yu was delayed and took a long time to arrive, apologizing profusely.
Su Yu changed her clothes unhappily: "I'll remember it. I'll be late next time too, so I can give you back the work you missed today."
You can’t suffer any loss in whatever you eat.
Su Yu once wanted to be lazy when she went to the countryside. She was very experienced. How could she let others be lazy after seven years?
The colleague took advantage and waved his hand: "I know, I know, go back quickly. It's dark outside, so be careful on the way back."
As night falls, the sky is dark blue, the moon is half-hanging in the sky, its tail is like a transparent tulle, and the road is dimly lit.
Su Yu lives not far from here, and she walks back and forth every day.
But she went home late today, and no one came to pick her up.
The cool breeze blew slowly by. Su Yu shrank her neck, stretched her sleeves and folded her hands in front of her chest to block the wind. It was so cold that goosebumps rose up.
If I had known, I would have worn two more clothes today.
The night was getting darker, and there were no people on the street. It was extremely quiet, with only the shrill sound of wind in her ears. Su Yu suddenly felt a little scared.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel like someone is following me.
But when I looked back, there was no one there.
Su Yu's heartbeat gradually accelerated, and she was about to ask the system to help her see if anyone was following her, when suddenly a shadow flashed beside her.
She immediately turned around and saw a man who couldn't hide in time and was caught by her.
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat and she ran away the next moment.
When the man behind him saw that he had been discovered, he cursed and hurriedly chased after her. His goal was clear, and he came for Su Yu.
Su Yu secretly thought that today was really unlucky.
There were times when I went back late before, but why did I encounter danger today?
"Help-"
"Anyone--"
"Help-"
Su Yu shouted at the top of her lungs as she ran, as long as she ran through this dark and deserted road and reached the business street in front, the man would not dare to chase her.
Su Yu gritted her teeth and quickened her pace.
The next second, her eyes widened suddenly and she immediately slowed down.
It's true that misfortune never comes singly. This man actually has an accomplice, blocking the road ahead.
The road ahead and behind was blocked.
Suddenly, Su Yu's eyes froze.
There is a small alley on the right. I have walked through it twice before. It is very narrow, but there is an exit.
Su Yu ran into the alley without hesitation.
The two chasing people looked at each other at the entrance of the alley, and gradually slowed down their pace, maintaining a speed that would not catch up with Su Yu but would not lose her, as if just to force her into the alley.
The alley was full of twists and turns, and Su Yu was not very skilled at finding her way in it.
Fortunately, the people behind me didn't chase me. I wonder if I got lost.
Su Yu walked faster, breathing heavily to identify the direction.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and there are no lights in the alley, which is overlapping and surrounded. If someone unfamiliar is in it, it is really possible that he will not be able to get out.
Turning the corner, you can vaguely see the exit.
Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
What a bad luck, I will never walk alone at night again next time.
However, before the last breath was released, the next breath was taken up again.
There was actually another person at the exit!
The footsteps behind him gradually approached.
There was a wolf in front of her and a tiger behind her. Su Yu called her unlucky.
There were two people behind her and one person in front of her. After hesitating for a moment, Su Yu decided to give it a try. If it didn't work, she would let the system enable cheats. At worst, points would be deducted.
Su Yu closed her eyes and rushed over bravely.
"Su Yu?" A familiar voice sounded in my ears, with doubt in the voice, "Why are you here?"
Su Yu was stunned and subconsciously slowed down, but she didn't stop the car and ran straight into the man's arms.
Encircled by a pair of strong arms, the man did not step back at all and caught her firmly, which was extremely powerful and reassuring.
Faced with the woman's embrace, Shao Jinglin readily accepted it.
The corners of the lips hidden in the darkness were slightly raised.
"Running so fast, what happened?"
There were rapid footsteps in the alley.
When they saw Shao Jinglin, the two people who had been chasing Su Yu stopped and hesitated for a moment, not daring to come over. They seemed to be afraid, but also annoyed. Finally, they looked at each other and turned around to run away.
Shao Jinglin's eyes flashed with satisfaction.
I still have a hint, and I can raise the agreed price.
Out of danger, Su Yu lay in Shao Jinglin's arms for a long time, gasping for air with panic still in her eyes.
Shao Jinglin raised his hand and patted her on the back: "Don't be afraid, tell me, what happened?"
It was okay when she ran away before, but now that she was comforted by him, Su Yu later realized that she was scared.
Uncontrollable panic arose from the bottom of my heart.
"There are bad guys chasing me..."
If Shao Jinglin hadn't appeared in time, she couldn't imagine what would be waiting for her.
Su Yu suddenly tightened her arms and hugged Shao Jinglin's waist tightly. She burst into tears in fear and began to sob. Finally, she burst into tears amidst the man's soft coaxing.
"There are... there are bad guys chasing me... there are two of them... I was scared to death just now..." Su Yu was frightened and cried while her voice trembled.
She clutched the clothes on the man's back so tightly that she wrinkled and refused to let go. She looked so frightened that she even forgot to ask why Shao Jinglin was here.
