Zhang Lingche suddenly withdrew his gaze and grasped the back of the office chair tightly in his hands, as if looking for some support.

He was silent for a moment, and finally plucked up the courage to ask the lingering question in his mind.

"Yuzhu, I know this may not be what I should ask, but I have always cared about you."

His eyes showed deep concern, "Is Pei Jingchuan treating you well?"

Jiang Yuzhu was slightly startled, not expecting Zhang Lingche to suddenly ask this question.

She was silent for a moment, looked at his concerned eyes, took a deep breath, and nodded slightly.

"Very well, he loves me very much." She said seriously.

Zhang Lingche's body trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly stiff, but he still tried his best to remain calm.

"I'm glad to hear the news. As long as you live well, I'll be relieved."

Jiang Yuzhu looked at him with emotion in his heart.

She knew that Zhang Lingche's concern for her was not as simple as friendship, but the relationship between her and Pei Jingchuan was so deep that she couldn't let go.

"Ling Che, I'm very grateful to you." She said softly, with a soft light shining in her eyes.

Zhang Lingche smiled bitterly. He shook her hand and quickly let go, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions.

"I only hope you are happy, Yu Zhu."

The two people's eyes met, and time seemed to have stopped for a moment.

There seemed to be an indescribable silence and subtlety in the air. But in the end, it was still broken by Jiang Yuzhu.

"Thank you, Ling Che, but I am very happy now." She said softly, her eyes full of determination.

Zhang Lingche took a deep breath and nodded slightly: "Then I'll be relieved."

At the same time, Pei Jingchuan's cell phone suddenly rang, piercing the tranquility of his office.

He frowned and answered the phone, his expression quickly becoming serious.

"Mr. Pei, there is something at the police station that requires your cooperation in the investigation." A police officer's voice came coldly on the other end of the phone.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes showed a trace of confusion and nervousness: "What's going on?"

"It's not convenient for us to disclose it right now, but I hope you can come to the police station as soon as possible." The police officer's voice remained calm.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Jingchuan took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

At this time, Assistant Qin knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mr. Pei, I heard the call. Do you need me to drive you to the police station?" Assistant Qin asked, with concern in his eyes.

Pei Jingchuan nodded: "Yes, but I want to tell Yu Zhu first before going."

Assistant Qin frowned: "Mr. Pei, do you think it's appropriate to tell her now? She might be worried."

Pei Jingchuan looked at him deeply and said firmly: "I don't want to hide it from her. There are no secrets between us."

Assistant Qin nodded: "I understand."

Afterwards, the two quickly walked out of the office building, and Assistant Qin drove Pei Jingchuan to the police station.

The atmosphere in the car seemed a bit dull. Pei Jingchuan kept stroking the mobile phone in his hand, as if thinking about how to tell Yu Zhu.

Upon seeing this, Assistant Qin said softly: "Mr. Pei, no matter what happens, I believe you can handle it. Your relationship with Miss Yuzhu is so deep, she will definitely support you."

Pei Jingchuan smiled softly: "Thank you, Assistant Qin."

Inside the police station, the marble floor reflected the faint light and looked slightly cold.

Pei Jingchuan and Assistant Qin walked through the large foyer and were led into a simple but high-end office.

Sitting behind the desk is a middle-aged man with neat hair, sharp eyes, and a slightly fat figure.

This is the police chief, Dong Yi.

Dong Yi stood up, smiled slightly, and shook hands with Pei Jingchuan warmly.

"Master Pei, you are so lucky. You have achieved such an achievement at such a young age. You are truly a role model for our generation."

Pei Jingchuan smiled slightly and said calmly: "Director Dong, thank you for the award. I just fulfilled my duties."

Dong Yi's face changed slightly. He sighed, looked away from Pei Jingchuan, and looked out the window, as if he was recalling something. A few seconds later, his eyes returned to Pei Jingchuan again, seemingly taking courage.

"Mr. Pei, actually I have another thing to come to you for today." Dong Yi spoke slowly, appearing cautious.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Oh?"

"About Li Shaohua who kidnapped Jiang Yuzhu some time ago." Dong Yi sighed, with a complicated expression on his face, "It has been three days since he suddenly stopped eating in the police station. Then he expressed his willingness to cooperate with the investigation and tell who planned this. kidnapping, but he had one condition."

Pei Jingchuan's heart skipped a beat and he nervously held the armrest. He looked a little anxious. Assistant Qin also looked at Dong Yi nervously.

"What conditions?" Pei Jingchuan's voice was obviously depressed, as if he was trying his best to stay calm.

"He hopes that you can ensure the safety of his mother." Dong Yi said solemnly.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes flashed with shock, and then he asked, "What happened to his mother?"

Dong Yi sighed: "As far as we know, Li Shaohua's mother has received some threats recently, and he is very worried about her safety."

Pei Jingchuan took a deep breath and seemed a little embarrassed: "Director Dong, of course I want to know who planned the kidnapping, but how to ensure the safety of his mother?"

Dong Yi was silent for a while, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

"Mr. Pei, if you can agree, the police station will take measures to temporarily place Li Shaohua's mother in a safe place until the incident is investigated clearly."

Pei Jingchuan was silent for a while, looked at Assistant Qin, and then nodded.

"Okay, as long as he tells the truth, I am willing to help protect his mother."

Dong Yi breathed a sigh of relief and showed a grateful look: "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Pei."

Pei Jingchuan sighed: "I just want to ensure Yu Zhu's safety. I can't let her be threatened again."

Dong Yi nodded and motioned to the police officer next to him.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and a thin man, Li Shaohua, was brought in.

His eyes flickered a little, but when he saw Pei Jingchuan, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

Pei Jingchuan stood up and stared directly at Li Shaohua through the glass.

The atmosphere in the room seemed to be tightened, and an indescribable tension filled the air.

"Sit." Pei Jingchuan's voice was calm and firm.

Li Shaohua sat on the chair opposite him slightly unnaturally. Although the distance between them was only a table, they seemed to be two worlds apart.

"I heard that you wanted to say something to me?" Pei Jingchuan took a deep breath and tried to make his voice less cold.

Li Shaohua took a deep look at Pei Jingchuan and his throat rolled: "I...I want to tell you who wants to hurt Jiang Yuzhu."
