Lin Shuyu's company also made her feel a special sense of security.
"Brother, I know I can't always rely on you, but I'm really grateful that you're by my side today."
Tong Xiaoge said sincerely.
Lin Shuyu smiled softly and waved her hand, "Xiaoge, you don't have to be so polite."
"Friends should support each other."
"Besides, seeing you able to let go makes me feel that it's all worth it."
Tong Xiaoge smiled slightly, her mood had improved a lot.
She scooped up another scoop of vanilla ice cream. This time her expression was much more relaxed, and the sweetness of the ice cream seemed even stronger.
The two of them sat by the window and chatted quietly.
Tong Xiaoge would occasionally still think of Fu Chen and those complicated interpersonal relationships, but at least at this moment, she could temporarily put aside those worries.

Through the glass, the busy street scene outside was reflected in her eyes, but her thoughts were obviously not here.Lin Shuyu showed up on time, with a concerned look on his face.He sat down and did not talk about the case directly. Instead, he asked with concern , "Xiao Ge, how are you feeling now? I was shocked when I heard that you were hospitalized yesterday."Tong Xiaoge smiled faintly, trying to look calm, "I'm fine, just a little weak. I'm much better now, let's discuss the case first."Lin Shuyu nodded and took out a document from his briefcase. "I have done some

One of the owners of the phone is one of the key people we suspected.""Really?" There was a glimmer of hope in Tong Xiaoge's eyes."Yes, our next task is to confirm the specific actions of this person on the night of the incident.""I suggest that we go to the police station right away and personally supervise this part of the investigation."

He is really scheming.""For the sake of fame, I have even thrown away my conscience."Every comment was like a needle piercing her heart, but Tong Xiaoge knew very well that these online voices were just a temporary venting of public emotion and she could not be shaken by them.

The pressure this incident has brought us is too great and we can't bear it."Tong Xiaoge tried hard to calm herself down. She knew that this was not just a legal battle, but also a destruction of a family's will."Mr. Wang, I understand your decision.

He dragged Tong Xiaoge towards the car parked on the side of the road.Lin Shuyu hurriedly followed and tried to mediate, "Mr. Fu, this is not right. Please calm down first."But Fu Chen seemed to have been completely controlled by his emotions.

The night breeze gently blew on her face through the half-open window, but she couldn't calm down.She held the phone tightly, her thoughts in a mess, and Fu Chen's cold face and Shi Jinglan's helpless look kept flashing through her mind.The taxi had just gone a short distance when she suddenly slapped her forehead, her heart tightening, "Master, please turn around, I left my ID card at the B&B."The driver nodded and drove the car back the same way.When they arrived at the alley outside the B&B, Tong Xiaoge got off the car quickly, anxiously thinking about returning to the B&B to get her ID card and then rushing back to the airport.She walked quickly back to the B&B, and just as she reached the door, she suddenly saw a figure sneaking away o

What you are doing is illegal!"Fu Chen walked in coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Jinglan , I have given you a chance.""Since you are unwilling to cooperate, this is the only way."Shi Jinglan's eyes flashed with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Fu Chen, what do you want?"Fu Chen sneered, "It's very simple.

It was obvious that he had not slept all night and was in an even more irritable mood.Bai Youwei took a deep breath, walked forward, and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, haven't you had breakfast yet? Health is important, eat something first."Fu Chen looked up at her with only indifference in his eyes, "I have no appetite, it's none of your business."Bai Youwei felt a sharp pain in her heart, but she still kept smiling, "Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, but you must take care of yourself. We will definitely find Tong Xiaoge."Fu Chen looked at her coldly, with a hint of impatience in his tone:"Youwei , you don't know anything. Don't waste your time here. You might as well go help find someone."Bai Youwei's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.She knew that now was not the time to argue with Fu Chen, she had to calm down."Brother Fu Chen, I wi

Have you found Tong Xiaoge?"Fu Chen glanced at them coldly, with a flash of anger in his eyes, "She has left, and the assistant hasn't found her yet."Shen Lanxiu frowned, pretending to be concerned and comforted, " Chen'er , don't worry, we will definitely find her."When Bai Youwei saw this, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes, but there was a concerned expression on her face:"Brother Fu Chen, don't worry too much. Maybe Tong Xiaoge just went out to relax and will be back in a few days."Fu Chen snorted coldly, his eyes flashing coldly, "What do you know? She has been clamorin

Bai Youwei walked over gently and said softly, "Brother Fu Chen, you have already drunk a lot. If you drink more, your body will not be able to bear it."Fu Chen ignored her and continued drinking.Bai Youwei frowned slightly, feeling secretly anxious.She knew she had to act quickly.She walked over to the wine cabinet and pretended to pick up a new bottle of red wine.While Fu Chen was not paying attention, he poured the prepared medicine powder into the wine glass, then walked back to Fu Chen with the wine glass."Brother Fu Chen, I know you feel bad, I can drink with you at worst."Bai Youwei said softly, handing the wine glass to Fu Chen.Fu Chen took the wine glass in a daze and drank it all.He didn't notice anything unusual about the alcohol, he just felt his head getting heavier and his vision getting blurry.Bai Youwei felt proud when she saw this.She knew that the medicine had begun to take effect.
