"Let go!" The man shrugged his shoulders and broke free from Huo Cheng's grip. He deliberately patted the non - existent dust on his shoulder.
But secretly, he grimaced in pain. He had really had a terrible day. His ear still hurt!
The two of them had already arrived at the police station. At this time, an Asian - looking man came out. He was stunned when he saw them.
"What's this?"
"Brother Hui, you've got to help me get justice. I'm not only injured, but also robbed by this guy." The man lied without batting an eyelid. He raised his chin proudly.
"Chinese?" Brother Hui, as the man called him, glanced at Huo Cheng.
Huo Cheng ignored him and simply sat down on the chair, crossing his legs.
"Alright, then let's take your statements first!" Brother Hui didn't seem to care.
After they both finished, Brother Hui asked Huo Cheng, "Where's your passport? Hand it over."
Huo Cheng stood up and made a phone call.
Brother Hui nodded in satisfaction and continued, "This incident doesn't constitute a criminal case. We suggest a private settlement. Otherwise, it will be very unfriendly to the traveler. They will be deported immediately."
"I don't want a private settlement." The man stiffened his neck. Finally, it was his turn to smile.
Brother Hui frowned. The man went on, "If I don't get an answer, I won't be able to sleep soundly tonight. Brother Hui, can't I refuse?"
The man could tell that Brother Hui was considering a private settlement for his sake. But in this case, he was confident that he was in the right. There was no need for a private settlement. That would be an insult to his injured ear.
"Okay, no private settlement."
Huo Cheng, who had been at the police station, finally said his first words to the police.
For some reason, Brother Hui always felt that something was wrong. But since neither of them was willing to settle privately, he had no way to intervene. He had no choice but to let things go.
After waiting for a while, a man brought Huo Cheng's passport. But it shocked Brother Hui.
He was in the process of entering their identities when he saw the returning police chief chatting merrily with the man who had just brought the passport.
"We will definitely find out the truth. Don't worry."
"Thank you." After their polite exchange, they finished.
After giving his instructions, Huo Cheng left with the man who had brought his passport.
The man who had brought his passport was his business partner. At the same time, he was also someone who had a good standing here.
He was also the reason why Brother Hui became extremely cautious when he saw the police chief.
...
Huo Cheng received a phone call in the hotel. After hearing the reply, he was still a bit dissatisfied.
"Have they revealed the mastermind?"
"...No."
"Keep at it." He hung up the phone.
Brother Hui was helpless. Now his little brother had taken full responsibility. He finally understood why he had felt uneasy.
But there was no turning back. Brother Hui had no choice but to go and ask his junior.
After everything was resolved, when Brother Hui wanted to finalize the result, he was stopped by the police chief.
"Deport the kidnapper." The decision was final, leaving no room for negotiation.
...
When Huo Cheng received another phone call, he was already at the airport.
"Okay." Huo Cheng hung up the phone.
Apparently, he was satisfied with the answer.
"Passengers flying to Singapore, please proceed to Gate 2 for boarding." The voice on the broadcast rang out.
Huo Cheng grabbed Gu Sisi, who was still looking around, and said softly, "It's time for us to go."
After this incident, they immediately changed their travel destination.
Gu Sisi didn't suspect anything when she heard that they were going to Singapore on a business trip. She just followed him.
The two of them boarded the plane and sat in adjacent seats. Gu Sisi leaned gently against Huo Cheng and fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, Wen Meiling, who was at the police station, was crying as she tried to call Huo Cheng. Each time, she was only greeted by the prompt that the other party's phone was turned off. She cried uncontrollably.
Gu Sisi woke up from her sleep and found herself in a hotel.
She was dazed for a long time before she came to her senses. She sat up straight and was about to get out of bed.
"Swish." Gu Sisi looked over. Huo Cheng was only wearing a bath towel around his lower body. His abs were fully exposed to the air, with a few droplets of water on them. He was using a towel to dry himself. It was quite a sight of a handsome man.
She was only in a daze for a moment when a face suddenly appeared in front of her. Huo Cheng leaned in. The distance between them was extremely close. She was startled and instinctively leaned back, her pupils dilating.
"What's wrong?" Gu Sisi forced a smile. She pushed his chest with both hands, trying to keep a distance between them.
Huo Cheng lowered his head and glanced at the small hands on his chest. He curled his lips into a smile, grabbed her hands, and leaned in again. They could clearly hear each other's breathing. An inexplicable air of ambiguity filled the air.
Gu Sisi's face turned red. She was completely at a loss.
She nervously held her breath and leaned back, trying to increase the distance between them. But Huo Cheng noticed. He put his big arm around her, and Gu Sisi's face was directly pressed against his chest.
The distance between them was too close. Way too close.
Gu Sisi's mind was sending out danger signals.
She let go of his chest with one hand and tried again to increase the distance. Her hand was grabbed again. This time, instead of pulling her closer, he stared directly into her eyes, as if he wanted to devour her.
In fact, that was exactly what Huo Cheng was thinking.
Gu Sisi felt that she had no strength left in her body. Their heads slowly drew closer. Unable to struggle, Gu Sisi had no choice but to give in. She closed her eyes, and their lips met.
When the kiss ended, their breathing was a bit unsteady.
Gu Sisi was so weak that she seemed to have had all her strength drained. She lay softly on the bed, with her hands wrapped around Huo Cheng's neck. Their kiss deepened. Just then, the phone rang. Huo Cheng picked it up, pressed the power - off button, and lay down on the bed next to Gu Sisi.
His hands began to wander. Gu Sisi's top was lifted up and slowly unbuttoned, revealing her fair skin and delicate collarbone. Huo Cheng's kisses followed the movement of his hands downward. His whole body moved up and down on Gu Sisi's.
Gu Sisi felt as if she was floating on the sea, lost and directionless. Huo Cheng was the only thing she could hold on to.
Gu Sisi's fingers were buried in Huo Cheng's hair. Her top was completely off.
It all went a little further down...
"Knock, knock, knock!" The sound of knocking on the door rang out. Gu Sisi, who had been in a daze, regained her senses. She let out a startled cry and tried to escape, but there was nowhere to go.
The knocking continued. Gu Sisi pushed the man on top of her.
A delicate voice sounded, "Go and check."
It was a coquettish and charming voice. Gu Sisi never thought her voice would sound like this. Her already red face turned even redder, and her body seemed to be on fire.
Huo Cheng remained calm on the surface, but he was extremely angry inside. Why did he have to choose this hotel, the same one as the company's people?
He grabbed the quilt and covered Gu Sisi's body. Then he walked out, looking extremely unhappy, and asked, "What is it?"
"Mr. Huo, Mr. Dai over there said that there will be a meeting now." The speaker seemed to be a new employee. He was frightened by Huo Cheng's obvious bad temper.
"Got it." Huo Cheng closed the door.
