hurt by being asked to leave in the morning, after calming down for a day, he felt that they could still talk about it. After all, pride wasn't that important. Besides, there were no insurmountable c...But he changed his mind just now, not only because Lu Yaoyao was hurt, but also because the whole village's acceptance of this behavior was terrifying. Hidden deep down, how many other women were they unaware of being harmed Therefore, he didn't hesitate to reveal his identity and contacted the local police to investigate thoroughly. At this moment, the police should be on their way. 。The village head's face, illuminated by the car lights, suddenly turned pale. He stubbornly insisted, "It's not that bad, it's not that bad, they are victims too." 。Song Jingye ignored them and waited there peacefully for the police. 。

A profound silence enveloped everything, the pitch-black sky gradually lightening as it dawned on me: snow was falling. The snowflakes danced and settled before the car lights, draping the entire world in a delicate veil. 。The village head and the two brothers wanted to leave, who was an idiot waiting here for the police to catch Song Jingye completely didn't stop them, coldly watching them mount motorcycles to escape. 。That was an old-fashioned motorcycle. They kicked the starter pedal several times, the sound roared, but it still wouldn't start. 。Accompanying that piercing sound was the wail of sirens, approaching from afar across the endless mountains, echoing through the valleys. 。The red and blue lights of the patrol cars stretched out like a long line, their glow reflecting off the car's headlights. The people inside finally felt a sense of relief, especially the girl who no longer trembled but sobbed uncontrollably, curled up in the down jacket Lu Yaoyao had given her. 。The police presence was larger than Song Jingye expected. From when he contacted the police to now, there wasn't enough time for even the town's police to arrive. 。Lu YaoYao and Chen Ninghui got out of the car, looking at the dozen or so police cars and dozens of policemen. The imposing scene made them feel like a talented chef was cooking chicken—a bit underwhelming given the scale. 。Lu Yaoyao's throat was still uncomfortable from being choked earlier, her scalp still tingling, and her arms hurt from being grabbed by the girl. They probably had bruises, but none of these aches and pains could hide the excitement she felt at this moment. 。Because it was a real, tangible good deed done, helping someone. 。Her down jacket looked tiny on the girl. Standing beside Song Jingye in all black, she seemed especially thin. Snowflakes landed on her shoulders, and within seconds, a small cluster had settled there. Song Jingye couldn't bear to see it. Just as he was about to take off his own coat for her, his hand suddenly stopped. His gaze lingered on the police car at the back, then shifted slightly, creating some distance between him and Lu Yaoyao. 。Lu Yaoyao also saw it, a row of police cars behind which was followed by a black car. The man who got out of the car was wearing a black suit and trousers, with a black coat outside, holding a transparent umbrella. He walked through the police cars and the crowd, slowly walking towards her. 。Heavy snow fell onto his transparent umbrella and also on her black clothes. Her eyes suddenly warmed as she just looked at him, watching him approach, watching him hold the umbrella over her, feeling herself being pulled close into his arms by his right hand, enveloped by his black coat. 。Her eyes were definitely hot, but not a single tear fell. Even her nose was unusually sensitive, catching the familiar, faint scent of tobacco from his embrace. 。The people around bustled about, Song Jingye had already taken large strides forward to negotiate with the police. The village head also changed his face to a respectful and honest one, pushing out the Wang brothers and distancing himself from them. 。The rest was left to the police; they didn't bother anymore. From beginning to end, Gu Ruandong and Song Jingye hadn't said a word to each other, not even a glance. 。。Lu Yaya still felt unreal. She was in Senzhou, but when did she arrive How did the police find her here She had so many questions. 。"Shall we go" 。He supported himself with one hand on his umbrella and the other arm around her shoulder, his palm tightening on the outside of her arm without explanation for why he was here. 。"Hold on" 。Lu Yaoyao pushed him away and walked towards Song Jingye's car. She didn't get in, but stood outside the car door and said to Chen Linghui and the president: "Let's go to the hotel to meet up." 。After she finished speaking, she turned around to see Gu Ruandong extending his hand, still holding the umbrella for her and preventing any more snow from falling on her. 。In this bitter winter, her whole body was already ice-cold, and only now did she feel the chill. She shivered uncontrollably, and Gu Ruantong tightly embraced her as they hurried towards his black car. 。His driver stayed in the car, so the interior was warm. The two of them sat side by side in the back seat, in silence. 。Lu Yaoyao always gives people face, so she didn't resist when he held her just now, nor did she make a fuss. 。Now, sitting in his car, he pushed her away with a cold expression. 。Gu Ruandong didn't hold her again, but his hand remained firmly clasped in hers, squeezing it occasionally. Both of their hands were cold from the outdoors. 。"Why am I here" he asked first. 。It's none of your business, we broke up already. 。Gu Ruandong smiled: "So you really have no awareness of being Mrs. Gu We are married, the word 'break up' is not appropriate, isn't it" 。"So, is divorce appropriate" She looked ahead, asking with a hint of defiance. 。The snow in front was getting heavier and heavier. The driver kept wiping the windshield with the wipers, afraid she wouldn't be able to get out of the village today. 。He replied, "That's true, but in this lifetime, you probably won't have this opportunity. " 。Lu Yaoyao was about to say that she didn't like his attitude of always making big things small and small things insignificant, as if he could breeze past even the biggest issue. 。Before she could speak, Gu Ruantong turned her body so they were face to face. He put away the casual and joking expression he had just moments ago, looking at her very seriously: "I came the night before last, and only found out you'd come to this village then." 。"Yao Yao, to be honest, I'm really too lazy to explain those gossip stories. 。That said, you might find this uncomfortable. When we founded Dongyang Entertainment back then, our initial intention wasn't entirely to conquer the entertainment industry. It was more about maintaining client relationships, which is to say, cultivating star female public relations. 。It wasn't always this way, though. Later it became more professional and they made a few really successful dramas that launched several first-line actresses. That's how the transformation happened and led to what we see now. 。"

He rarely spoke so much at once, Lu Yaoyao was a little confused: “What does this have to do with me”

He said: “What I want to tell you is that Dongyang Film and Television exists for me just to maintain client relationships.”

" 。Just like how I used to invest in Xu Zhao's plays before, it was out of obligation to his family; now this Liao Liao is the same, doing me a favor. To me, it's just business. 。"“

That night, it was Mr. Wang who took the person to the club on his own initiative, but I had already left at that time and wasn't with her. You can ask Cui Ping at home about this; I got home at what time that night.” 。Lu Yaoyao opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her brain went blank. The video from that night did sting her a little. 。ound and went to the club to race cars, releasing his abundant energy. He recently discovered that energy conservation is particularly good, such as exercising in the gym or racing at the club, releas...
