"Oh, does he always tell others that this is my bodyguard?"

Zuo Yu was in front, talking and gesturing at the same time.

Qi Yan just glanced at him and said indifferently.

"There's nothing wrong with saying that. It's the truth after all."

"...Qi Yan, how did he fall in love with you?"

Zuo Yu remained silent, very puzzled.

"I do not know either."

Qi Yan was even more confused than him.

"..."

The two looked at each other, and a strange awkwardness spread.

Went downstairs.

Qi Yan knocked on the wooden door of the interrogation room, and the inner door opened quickly.

When Shen Rao saw the familiar figure, his originally relaxed muscles tensed unconsciously, and his body, which was leaning on the back of the chair, straightened up.

Qi Yan talked to the other party for a few words, and the police officer turned sideways, and his field of vision became wider.

The man with long arms and legs was confined to the interrogation chair. He had no place to stretch his straight and slender legs, so he could only cross them together awkwardly, revealing his white ankles under his suit pants.

There was no expression on his face, but his clear black eyes flickered slightly, making him look inexplicably pitiful.

Qi Yan took the key to the interrogation chair, walked over to help him unlock it, and said as he inserted the key into the lock.

"Boss Shen, are you scared?"

Shen Rao: “…”

He pursed his lips and said nothing.

The locks were unlocked and he stood up from the hard chair. When Qi Yan took him out of the interrogation room, he was still a little dazed. The two interrogating police officers looked at him strangely.

It seems to be saying, aren’t you unfamiliar with it?

hall.

Gu Qing also finished taking notes, and He Yu just happened to drive over to pick him up.

Qi Yan had just let Shen Rao get in the car and closed the passenger door when she was stopped.

Gu Qing's nosebleed has stopped, but the tip of his nose is still red and swollen. Qi Yan looked at him like this and made some guesses.

Sure enough, the next sentence of the person in front of her confirmed her thoughts.

"Shen Rao beat me."

"……Thanks for your hard work."

Qi Yan paused for two seconds and comforted her dryly.

Gu Qing didn't expect her to say anything nice, so he pointed to a place not far away.

"Go over there, I have something to tell you."

Qi Yan took a few steps and stopped.

"Go ahead."

Gu Qing looked at her deeply and lowered his head: "I want to apologize to you. I'm sorry."

"What are you apologizing for?"

Seeing his sincere attitude, Qi Yan felt a little strange.

Originally, I thought that Gu Qing would make a scene in front of her again about what happened today, scolding her for putting Shen Rao in danger.

It doesn't seem to be the case now.

Gu Qing still didn't raise his head, and said word by word: "I apologize for 'banning' you in the imperial capital before, and..."

He paused, raised his head and met her calm eyes.

"Shen Rao, thank you very much."

After what happened today, and seeing Shen Rao being "rescued" by her safely, what else did Gu Qing not understand?

Even if he is stupid, he has his limits.

Bodyguard protection, criminal organizations, shooting attacks, all these fragmented information were mixed together, and he still couldn't figure out what happened.

But none of this matters.

The important thing is... Qi Yan is really "protecting", and this protection is very, very heavy.

Qi Yan didn't accept his thanks and said calmly.

“It’s just part of the job.”

Protection is a mission, but now it is mixed with some selfish motives.

At this moment.

Gu Qing straightened his neck completely and his expression changed instantly.

"Let's put things one way or the other. Even if this is the case, you can't play with Shen Rao's feelings! Today, he gave me a nosebleed because he wanted to find you in the snow!" He pointed at his face, "Look, my nose is almost broken!"

"For you, he even gave up his brothers! Do you have the nerve to let him down?"

"..."

This use of moral suppression was very effective, and Qi Yan did feel a little uncomfortable.

She rubbed her hands and considered.

"How about I pay some of your medical expenses? How much do you want?"

Gu Qing's face turned green, "Who cares about your little money? And is this the point?!"

"So what's the point?"

Qi Yan asked if she didn't understand.

Gu Qing held his breath, then seeing that she really didn't seem to understand, he swallowed it back.

"The point is you can't let him down!"

"I beg you, please be nice to him... ok?"

"..."

The wind blew up the strands of hair on her temples, and the snow gradually stopped. Qi Yan looked into his pleading eyes and pursed her lips.

Gu Qing also stared at her.

What can he do? For such a person whose background is hard to figure out, is there any other way except to beg?

The answer is: no.

for a long time.

It was so long that Gu Qing thought Qi Yan would not respond, so she moved her body, her steady voice slightly hoarse.

"I will."

With her affirmation, Gu Qing finally felt relieved.

Even though it was just a vague statement, he still breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, he has always believed in Qi Yan's promises.

Maybe it’s because she has never been a person who likes to take on things.

Once you promise, you will definitely do it.

Looking at Qi Yan's back as he got into the car, he sniffed and said to himself.

"Shen Rao, I can only help you up to this point... Damn, it hurts..."

He Yu on the roadside honked the horn, "Gu Er, get in the car quickly."

"Here it comes, hurry up!"

Gu Qing quickly turned around and strode to the side of the road.

Land Rover, inside the car.

Zuo Yu was no longer there, and there were only two people left in the carriage. The air was silent, and the atmosphere was somewhat stagnant and dry.

Qi Yan steered the wheel without saying a word, but Shen Rao couldn't hold back and asked first.

"What did Gu Qing tell you?"

"you guess."

"..."

Do you want to guess?!

Shen Rao felt uncomfortable with her two words. He was already full of anger, and now his face became even gloomier. He crossed his arms and sat there, ignoring the cold air.

Ten minutes later.

He couldn't bear it any longer, so he turned around and glared at her, squeezing out words through his teeth.

"What did he say?"

Qi Yan lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Boss Shen, this is my private matter."

"……What do you mean?"

Shen Rao frowned, suddenly feeling something was wrong.

I saw.

While waiting for the green light, Qi Yan tapped the steering wheel and smiled at him sincerely.

"We are just the boss and employee. It's not right for you to ask about my personal affairs, right?"

"..."

Shen Rao's head felt a little empty, and his heart felt like it was hit by a heavy object. His fingertips trembled slightly, and the blood color on his thin lips faded.

But he quickly recovered, his lips curled up in a sarcastic arc.

"That's really not appropriate."

"That's right," Qi Yan nodded in agreement, "We should keep a proper distance from our employees, don't you think so, Boss Shen?"

"..."

Shen Rao felt that she was provoking him, but he had no evidence.

Shen Rao, who had not turned the game around, felt upset. He looked out the window, but his eyes kept glancing at her profile.

Her face was calm, without any emotion, and she even seemed to be in a good mood?

This realization made him feel even worse.

Although he said "it's just an employee relationship" in the interrogation room, when I thought about Qi Yan really agreeing...

He pressed his heart, which was so heavy and painful.

Shen Rao turned his head and saw the drooping corners of his lips and the slightly red corners of his eyes through the reflection of the car window.
