Chapter 115 Police

She didn't use "couple" or "girlfriend," but rather "partner."

Gu Jinghe hadn't processed the news yet, but Qiao Xiao was already calling him "Jinghe".

Gu Jinghe's mind was filled with the sound of "Jinghe," "Jinghe," which made him feel at a loss and even a little silly.

Looking at him, Qiao Xiao said with certainty, "He really should take a rest."

He was overjoyed, feeling that every day was filled with light, but now his biggest dilemma was what to call her. She probably didn't like overly affectionate terms of address, so what should he call her?

As he was deep in thought, her figure came into his view.

Gu Jinghe exclaimed inwardly: How wonderful, she will be my girlfriend from now on.

He was grinning from ear to ear, his mouth moving so fast it seemed to fly to the sky.

System notification: "Gu Jinghe's favorability has increased by 5, and his current favorability is 95."

Qiao Xiao looked at Gu Jinghe's infatuated expression and thought to herself: Gu Jinghe really does look somewhat like Shi Bozi.

She couldn't help but frown slightly, cursing inwardly: Why did I have such a stupid idea? They are clearly two different people.

She hates it most when people confuse one person with another; it's disgusting and shouldn't be done.

Qiao Xiao took a deep breath, deciding to stop letting these thoughts bother her. She leaned closer to Gu Jinghe, carefully examining his injuries, and asked with concern, "How are your injuries? Let me see."

Gu Jinghe blushed and replied softly, "It's alright, I've already taken care of it myself."

Qiao Xiao stared at his slightly strained face, feeling that he was putting on a brave face. So, she said firmly, "Don't push yourself. It will be troublesome if the wound gets worse."

Gu Jinghe nodded, his eyes as clear and bright as the waters of West Lake, sparkling with light.

He hesitated for a long time before finally mustering the courage to speak: "Xiaoxiao..."

Qiao Xiao was taken aback, thinking: This address? Instantly, she got goosebumps and could only force a nod, "Mm."

Then, there was a knock on the door. The knock was eerie; it didn't sound like a tentative knock, but rather a confident and assertive one, as if the door was about to be broken down at any moment.

Hearing the knocking, Qiao Xiao felt a sense of foreboding.

Immediately afterwards, a group of uniformed police officers kicked open the door and rushed in. Armed and with serious expressions, they shouted, "Don't move!"

Qiao Xiao calmly glanced outside and saw that several police cars were already parked there.

Clearly, this operation was not accidental.

One of the police officers walked up to Qiao Xiao and said sternly, "Qiao Xiao, based on the existing evidence, you are suspected of bombing a teaching building at XX University. Please cooperate with us to go to the police station for investigation."

Qiao Xiao immediately realized that something was wrong, so she quickly revealed her identity: "I am a member of XX Charity Organization. According to regulations, if you want to arrest me, you must get approval from my superior. You have no right to arrest me without authorization."

The police officers exchanged glances, then stated bluntly, "We are qualified!"

Qiao Xiao and Gu Jinghe exchanged a knowing glance. They understood that these police officers who did not follow the rules were likely imposters, or that the police were colluding with criminal gangs.

Regardless, they were all armed, and strangely enough, they confirmed that the person they were going to arrest was Qiao Xiao.

Gu Jinghe was standing still when he heard that they were going to arrest him. He felt a little scared. After all, he was a rich young master. How could he not be afraid when he saw guns? But no matter how scared he was, it couldn't stop him from stepping forward.

Gu Jinghe tried desperately to calm himself down. He moved slowly, attempting to protect Qiao Xiao behind him.

Qiao Xiao found his cautious and nervous appearance somewhat amusing. She bluntly stated, "If I stand in front, at most one person will die. But if you stand in front of me, there will be one more corpse."

Qiao Xiao: "I'll go with you."

Seeing that Gu Jinghe seemed about to stop her, she said, "Gu Jinghe, you must find a way to save me."

Gu Jinghe: "But how can I just stand by and watch..."

An immense sense of powerlessness bound him tightly like an invisible force, as if countless dust particles scattered in the air could not be contained and were eventually scattered on the cold ground.

He could only clench his fists, trying to release his anger and helplessness. However, no matter how hard he tried, the feeling of powerlessness lingered.

Qiao Xiao was blindfolded and didn't know where she was being taken.

Gu Jinghe decided to immediately contact the people he could trust—Mary and Lemi.

However, just as he was about to make the call, the phone next to him suddenly rang.

He frowned, picked up his phone, and saw that it was Qiao Xiao's phone receiving a call from Wang Wanqing. He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately answered the call.

"What is it?" His tone was cold, as if he wanted to use this attitude to cover up his inner unease.

Wang Wanqing said anxiously, "Jinghe, I found out who's been harassing you. It's XXX (Puxin troublemaker)."

Gu Jinghe didn't react much upon hearing the name. He seemed to have no recollection of the person, while Wang Wanqing provided a detailed introduction from her perspective.

Gu Jinghe immediately understood that this person was one of Wang Wanqing's suitors, a true example of good luck in love.

Gu Jinghe: Why are we the ones getting all the attention she deserves?!

He sighed deeply, then said to Wang Wanqing, "Thank you. Be careful of him too; he's not a good person."

Hearing Gu Jinghe's concern, Wang Wanqing was delighted and said shyly, "I understand."

Gu Jinghe said coldly, "I'm hanging up now."

He then immediately called Lemi and the others.

Soon, Lemi drove up to their residence.

Lemi approached their house and asked, "How many cars came by? Were they police cars?"

Gu Jinghe: "Yes, should we call Officer Mary to confirm?"

Lemi: "Mary is on a mission now, and it's about you."

Gu Jinghe: "Mine?"

Lemi: "That's right. Mary just received news that Coe has close ties with certain criminal groups, which may be terrorist groups."

Gu Jinghe: "Yes, I know. It's very likely that the police will investigate me."

Leimi: "Possibly, but the most important thing right now is to figure out why Qiao Xiao was taken away."

Soon, Mary called.

"Leimi, please hand the phone to Gu Jinghe, thank you."

Gu Jinghe answered the phone, "I'm here, officer."

Mary: "We suspect that Ke has electronic devices on him that can contact those guys. Make a call and go to his house to check."

Gu Jinghe: "Okay, I understand."

Mary: "We will send police to assist you, so don't worry."

Gu Jinghe: "Yes, Officer Mary." Afterwards, he contacted Section Chief and explained his situation.

Gu Jinghe said in a low voice, "I don't know where to go right now. My mind is too confused, Ke."

Ke comforted her, "It's alright, Jinghe, I'll drive over to pick you up right now."

Soon after, Ke arrived at Gu Jinghe's house, and Lai Mi drove away.

Looking at Gu Jinghe, who was covered in injuries, he felt a pang of heartache and immediately went to check on him.

"Your injury looks terrible," Ke said anxiously. "My fiancée is a medical professional; she can help you with it."

Gu Jinghe replied wearily, "I can only rely on you now, Ke."

Ke opened the passenger door for Gu Jinghe, then helped him in himself, and finally closed the door for him. He wanted to buckle his seatbelt himself, but Gu Jinghe had already buckled it himself.

Ke had been concerned about Gu Jinghe's mood the whole way. He would glance at Gu Jinghe sitting next to him from time to time and found that he kept his head down and his eyes were empty.

Looking at the dejected Gu Jinghe, Ke couldn't help but feel pity; after all, he was just too handsome.

This excessive concern didn't bother Gu Jinghe; he suppressed his nausea and kept thinking about Qiao Xiao.

On the way, Ke's expression suddenly turned extremely serious, and he said in a cold voice, "We have someone following us."

Gu Jinghe glanced at the rearview mirror and wondered if this car was the one the police had sent to assist him.

However, he felt that this was unlikely, because wouldn't their actions be too easily discovered?

Gu Jinghe couldn't help but feel disappointed, muttering to himself, "They exposed themselves so quickly, they're really useless."

He clutched his forehead in despair, his heart growing heavier. Then he turned to Ke and asked, "How much longer until we reach our destination?"

Ke's expression softened slightly, as if he sensed Gu Jinghe's anxiety, and he comforted him, "Don't worry, it'll be soon."

After saying that, Ke immediately stepped on the gas, and the car roared as it accelerated rapidly. He tried to shake off the vehicles closely following behind, but they maintained a certain distance and showed no signs of letting up.

Just when Ke was feeling a bit overwhelmed, a bend suddenly appeared ahead. Without hesitation, he sharply turned the steering wheel and instantly completed a beautiful right turn.

The vehicles behind were clearly unprepared for this turn of events and were unable to react in time, driving straight through the bend.

Gu Jinghe watched the departing vehicles, shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile, "Maybe they just wanted to race against us."

Ko replied with a serious expression, "But now is not the time."

After that, the two stopped talking, and Ke focused on driving. They drove in silence until they finally arrived at Nancy's house.
