Chapter 107: Were they taken back?
Su Yiran knew Yanli's ability to take care of her, and finding her would be a piece of cake.
If Gu Yanli wanted to know her whereabouts, he didn't need to do anything else; he just needed to check which hotel Wang Yanxi was staying at.
"..."
Wang Yanxi was on the verge of tears. "How come I feel like you've led me astray?"
"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
Su Yiran stood up and patted Wang Yanxi's head. "Alright, big star, you must be tired too. Take a rest for a while. I'll go downstairs for a walk and bring you some delicious food when I come back."
"..."
Su Yiran changed her clothes and then left the hotel.
In the early morning in Paris, there are relatively fewer people.
Su Yiran was hungry, but she had overestimated the area. She wandered around the neighborhood but couldn't find anything.
Left with no other option, she went to a convenience store to find something to eat.
"Um--"
Just as Su Yiran was about to push the door open, a man wearing a baseball cap pushed the door open and bumped into her hard.
The glass door slammed heavily on her forehead.
"you……"
Su Yiran rubbed her head, looked up, and found that the other person had already left.
"Who is this person? They hit someone and didn't even apologize!"
Su Yiran snorted unhappily and was about to enter the convenience store when the image of the pair of eyes she had vaguely seen with the baseball cap looking down flashed through her mind.
very familiar.
Uncle Zhong?!
Su Yiran immediately realized what was happening and looked up again in the direction the man had left. There was not a single person in the dark street.
Is that Uncle Zhong?
Those eyes look just like his.
But this is Paris, France, how could he be here?
Some time ago, the Liu family received the punishment they deserved, and she immediately tried to contact Uncle Zhong, but to no avail.
This had happened before, so she didn't think much of it.
I never expected to see her here.
What is he doing here?
Meanwhile, two luxury cars were quietly parked on the deserted street.
Bodyguards dressed in special uniforms stepped out of the car.
"Madam, I'll escort you back to the manor to rest."
A voice speaking Chinese with a heavy French accent pulled Su Yiran back to reality.
Su Yiran looked up and saw the tall bodyguard in front of her; he was from the Sheng Le Wei Jia Manor.
Gu Yanli acted quickly; not much time had passed before he sent someone to intercept her.
"Help me find someone."
Su Yiran had some doubts. In this place, which was Gu Yanli's territory, it might be better to use his influence.
She told the bodyguard what had just happened and instructed him, "Don't scare people, be careful."
"Okay, ma'am."
The head bodyguard ordered his men to get to it immediately.
In the car.
The bodyguard received a phone call, and before he knew what the other person was saying, he handed the phone to Su Yiran. "Madam, it's the master."
Su Yiran looked at the phone number that was still connected to hers, fearing that someone was about to come and demand an explanation.
She reluctantly took the phone, her voice softening instantly, "Good morning, Ayan—"
It should be around 8 or 9 a.m. in Kyoto right now.
Do you think I'm a good person?
Gu Yanli said coldly, "Su Yiran, have you learned to play tricks on me now? We were talking so well just a couple of days ago, and now you've given me such a big surprise, and even turned off your phone. Do you really think I won't do anything to you?"
Su Yiran muttered under her breath, "It's not turned off."
"Oh... that means you blocked me."
The man's voice was calm, with a hint of laughter in his words—a cold laugh.
Su Yiran's heart skipped a beat as she listened. "No, I didn't block you... It's just that the signal was bad, so I didn't receive your call. Besides, no matter where I go, I can't escape Ayan's watchful eyes. You said that wasn't true."
She was just wandering around aimlessly when she was caught.
"Don't think I can't do anything to you just because I'm not in France. Look at the time! It's Paris, France at this hour, and you dare to run around alone? You're really fearless!"
"I'm hungry, right?"
Su Yiran munched on a sandwich she had just bought from the convenience store.
She used to think sandwiches were unappetizing, but now that she's hungry, she thinks they're absolutely delicious!
She had just gotten off the flight and returned to the hotel, and she was jet-lagged. She woke up because she was hungry.
Gu Yanli was silent for a moment before saying, "Stay home these next few days, and I'll take you out for a stroll when I get there... Do you understand?"
"...I heard you."
Su Yiran muttered to herself.
Then Gu Yanli said some random things, and Su Yiran just chimed in with disjointed sentences.
"Have someone prepare some food for you. Eat it and get some rest. Don't stay up late!"
He felt helpless and said nothing more.
Back at the manor, the servants had prepared a hot meal.
It was all her favorite dishes.
Su Yiran took a photo and sent it to Wang Yanxi.
The other party responded instantly.
[Were they taken back?]
"..."
Su Yiran twitched the corner of her mouth, turned her phone face down, and didn't reply.
……
The next morning.
After Su Yiran had breakfast, the bodyguard immediately reported to her about the investigation they had been asked to conduct the day before.
"Madam, we've checked all the surveillance footage in the area, but... I'm sorry, Madam, we've lost track of them."
The road had very few streetlights, and he was dressed in black, so finding him was indeed difficult.
"However, we found his shopping records at the convenience store. Please give us some more time, Madam."
"it is good."
Su Yiran nodded.
If that person wasn't Uncle Zhong, that would be understandable. But if it really was Uncle Zhong, why did he come back to France? And why didn't he acknowledge her after they bumped into each other?
Did they not recognize her?
Su Yiran spent the whole morning playing with Pizza.
In just two or three months, Pizza has grown a lot, from a little puppy to a big dog.
In the afternoon, Su Yiran received a call from Uncle Zhong.
Ask her to meet up.
The condition is that only she can come.
After thinking about it for a long time, Su Yiran agreed.
Although she didn't know what Uncle Zhong was trying to hide, she was determined to find out what was going on.
It took her a great deal of effort to sneak out of the Sanrevija estate.
Su Yiran arrived at the agreed-upon French restaurant.
She gave her name, and the waiter led her to a table at the very back.
Uncle Zhong arrived early, and instead of his usual simple attire, he wore a well-fitting suit.
Su Yiran rarely saw him like this.
Uncle Zhong looked a little awkward. "Does this outfit... look bad on me?"
"No, it looks great."
Su Yiran looked at him with a smile.
"As long as it looks good, it's fine. It's my first time at this kind of event, so I should be a little more formal."
Uncle Zhong straightened his clothes and said, "When you were little, you wished to eat an authentic French meal. You didn't have the chance before, but now you can make up for it."
Su Yiran did indeed say that.
When she made her birthday wish, she mentioned not only French cuisine, but also cuisines from all over the world; she named everything she could think of.
It was just a joke from when she was little; she wouldn't even remember it if Uncle Zhong didn't bring it up now.
