Chapter 361 A Sudden Hug
Gu Nankai felt dizzy after waking up. He was stunned for several seconds before he remembered what had happened before. When he came to his senses and went to look for Wu Qingluan, he found that she was not at home. He thought she had gone to the serious crime team in advance, but when he arrived at the serious crime team, he still did not see Wu Qingluan.
When he asked other people in the serious crime team, he found out that Wu Qingluan did not come to work in the morning. This made Gu Nankai feel a little strange. When he called Wu Qingluan, her phone was turned off.
Wu Qingluan would never leave without a reason, and there would never be a situation where he couldn't contact her. From the moment Gu Nankai called her and the phone was turned off, his heart skipped a beat. As a few minutes passed, an indescribable feeling of uneasiness increasingly permeated Gu Nankai 's heart.
"Boss, are you Mr. Wu? Will something happen to you?"
Gao Yuan and the others soon noticed that something was wrong with Gu Nankai, and they all came to Gu Nankai's side. Gu Nankai frowned and didn't say anything. Everyone waited for him to speak in silence. After a few seconds, he finally said, "Gao Yuan, check where Teacher Wu drove last night. If she left last night, she would have gone home first. Something must have happened in the meantime."
He spoke quickly, thinking that if something had really happened last night, then until now...
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Gu Nankai suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He didn't even want to think about what would happen. But the more he didn't want to think about it, some messy scenes would appear in his mind involuntarily, making him more and more worried, and even his heartbeat quickened.
Gao Yuan quickly retrieved Wu Qingluan's driving route after she left the serious crime squad last night, only to discover that she had indeed been driving along the route home, but had stopped halfway to make a phone call and then changed direction, and then actually drove straight on the expressway and left Longhai.
"Where is Teacher Wu going after leaving Longhai?"
Everyone was puzzled by this discovery. Why did Wu Qingluan leave Longhai at this time?
Gu Nankai also frowned. He couldn't think of any situation that would make Wu Qingluan leave Longhai at that time. What's more, Wu Qingluan usually told him what she did, so why didn't she inform him at that time and chose to leave alone?
They thought that there was a section of Wu Qingluan's driving route that was difficult to track with surveillance, and it would be difficult to find her after she left Longhai. When Gu Nankai and his team had spent some effort and finally got some clues, Wu Qingluan herself suddenly opened the door of the serious crime unit and walked in.
For a moment, everyone was stunned where they stood, staring blankly at the place where Wu Qingluan appeared. Gao Yuan was the first to react. He ran towards where Wu Qingluan was standing. After him, Shang Lu and Li Meng also ran over. Cao Cang also breathed a sigh of relief and walked over.
Only Gu Nankai was left standing there in a daze, his eyes fixed on Wu Qingluan.
As soon as Wu Qingluan came in, she met everyone's strange eyes. Everyone looked at her with shock and relief after worry. She stood there in confusion. Before she could say anything, Gao Yuan and others had already rushed over. They looked her up and down several times before saying, "Teacher Wu, where were you last night? Do you know that the boss was worried to death because he couldn't contact you?"
Wu Qingluan frowned, then she remembered that her phone was out of battery. She immediately smiled embarrassedly and subconsciously looked at Gu Nankai not far away. Seeing that he looked serious and seemed a little angry, she was startled and quickly retracted her gaze, and quickly explained to Gao Yuan and the others: "My phone is out of battery..."
When she said this, she was not only talking to Gao Yuan and the others, but also to Gu Nankai. Gao Yuan and the others reacted and nodded repeatedly, but Gu Nankai's expression still didn't improve at all. He just stood not far away and looked at Wu Qingluan. His eyes seemed steady and calm, but everyone who knew him knew that Gu Nankai's heart was absolutely in turmoil at this moment.
Gao Yuan and the others also realized belatedly that the atmosphere was strange. Cao Cang looked at Wu Qingluan, then at Gu Nankai, and then poked Gao Yuan's arm. Gao Yuan quickly reacted, and several people left the serious crime team office quietly.
In the huge office, Wu Qingluan and Gu Nankai were the only ones standing there, facing each other. Wu Qingluan looked at Gu Nankai's face and didn't know what to say for a moment, because his expression at the moment made it hard to guess what he was thinking.
The two people just looked at each other. Gu Nankai didn't change at all, but Wu Qingluan felt uncomfortable with his look. In the end, she was the first to give in. She moved her mouth and was about to say something, but she saw Gu Nankai suddenly move his feet and walked straight towards her.
Wu Qingluan was confused by everything that happened next. For a moment, she had no idea what was going on. It was not until her dizziness improved a little that she realized that she was really in Gu Nankai's arms.
It was not until the moment he pulled the person into his arms that Gu Nankai's heart finally calmed down, as if his breathing had returned to normal in an instant. God knows how excited he was when he saw Wu Qingluan coming in, but what followed was a hint of anger. He was angry that she acted rashly without informing him, angry that her phone was turned off and he disappeared, and even more angry at himself for not notifying her.
He had already blamed himself for Wu Qingluan's failure to return home last night, so at this moment, when he finally broke through his inner reserve and held her in his arms, feeling the real contact, his heart finally settled down.
"Tell me where you're going next time. I was really worried just now."
His dull voice slowly rang in Wu Qingluan's ears, but now her heartbeat was out of control. Thousands of words were defeated by her slightly trembling hands. She just stood there, not knowing how to respond. She was held in his arms in an awkward posture. Her inner desire drove her to put her arms around his waist, but her body remained silent and did not take action.
At this moment, she suddenly felt hesitant.
She was not sure what she was hesitating about. When it came to that point and she wanted to respond in the same way, she remembered the day when Gu Nankai disappeared. Even though she appeared to be stable that day, she knew in her heart that Zhang Qingqing was back, the woman who was involved with Gu Nankai was back. Even though Gu Nankai had told her the day before that he might not be in love with that woman, there was still too much past between them.
She was still timid.
Gu Nankai didn't know how much she had thought about in this short time. When she slowly calmed down, she was gently pushed away by Wu Qingluan. She had a smile on her face and stared at her as if she was joking as usual: "Why, are you worried that I'll have an accident? Or are you worried that I'll be like you the other day?"
He was stunned, not quite sure about her behavior at the moment. She seemed to be deliberately pulling the atmosphere back to normal. Gu Nankai didn't know how to respond for a moment. Wu Qingluan quickly smiled and continued, "You wanted to re-investigate the original case, but Chen Anning said it was not easy, so I made a trip on a whim."
She was laughing as she spoke. Gu Nankai didn't react for a moment, but soon his mind turned around. Looking at he said, "You...you go find..."
