C28 (1/2)

It seemed that he had returned to normal. Otherwise, he wouldn't be sitting at the same table as us and having a meal quietly. However, seeing her go insane during this period of time had indeed left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

There was nothing to do tonight. After dinner, Zhou Tong said that she wanted to go back, and Old Wang ”took the initiative” to send her back.

Pfft, I can't say it like that anymore. It only means that I am lazy and unwilling to move, so I can only let this old man down. He didn't want to go, but he was worried that if anything happened to Zhou Qiao, he would have to live with me during this time.

After they left, I carefully asked, ”Zi Rong, are you alright?”

The living room was just the two of us now, and she was holding a straight glass with white smoke coming out of it.

Li Zi Rong tried her best to maintain a smile on her face, but it seemed very bitter and awkward.

When she didn't reply, I patted her shoulder and said, ”It's alright. The matter has passed. Don't worry, I will definitely protect you.”

Li Zi Rong turned her head to look at me. Her face was full of emotion, and there were some sparkling and translucent tears in her eyes. Actually, I didn't understand it myself, so why did I say this out loud?

If it wasn't for the experience between us, she would have thought I was a very frivolous person.

This made me feel extremely embarrassed. I quickly took out a tissue and helped her wipe the tears that were gradually flowing out of her eyes. I said with a smile, ”Don't cry. Don't worry. These are all temporary. I will definitely bring you out of the Ghost Net.”

Li Zi Rong put down her cup of water and directly threw herself into my embrace, quietly crying as she gradually sobbed.

”I'm sorry, I can't help you with anything since we've had the same experience, and I've become a burden to you as well.”

I laughed and said, ”You can't put it like that. We're still alumni.” Furthermore, the same fate has brought us together. This is called sharing hardships and hardships. ”

It took me a while to comfort her. I told her the results of my discussion with Old Wang, and said that I would report the case to the police after dawn.

Li Zi Rong listened to me and nodded in response. Right now, I am the only one who has the trust in me.

The two of us didn't have much to talk about before Old Wang came back. It was rare for him to have a good night's sleep at home. Li Zi Rong was still a little worried and purposely switched off her phone before going to bed.

I wasn't that careful. Whether it was a mission invitation or a petition request invitation, I would read them and keep them. To me, these were all evidence right now.

The night was peaceful.

The next morning.

Li Zi Rong got up early to prepare breakfast for me and Old Wang. Last night, her roommate, Zhou Qi, helped. I really didn't expect that a high and mighty school beauty could cook.

”What do you know? This is called a girl's natural ability.” Old Wang said something back at me.

I have nothing to say to this flattery.

After the meal, he had planned to ask Old Wang to go with him. This guy took the lead and said, ”You guys hurry up and leave. Tell me if you find anything. After a few days, I won't be able to recover that easily.”

”...”

If he didn't want to go, then so be it. There was no need to come up with such excuses.
