Chapter 571: Chapter 570: Stay Close to Me and Be Careful
Having said that, Chi Gui looked up again, furrowing his brows and gave him a glance, āWhatās wrong with you? Why do you like to get so close when you talk?ā
Wen Ruanās body stiffened.
He slowly stood up straight, and the seductive smile on his face was replaced with a polite, gentle one, āSorry, itās a habit, Iāll correct it in the future.ā
Chi Gui kindly advised, āYou really should change that, or else youāll end up with no friends in the future.ā
A hint of stiffness crept onto Wen Ruanās smile.
He stood a bit farther from Chi Gui, āIf thereās nothing else, Iāll be leaving now.ā
Coming out of Chi Guiās office, Wen Ruan happened to see Shi Liyun passing by.
He smiled and greeted Shi Liyun.
Shi Liyun suddenly blushed, tightened her grip on the files she was holding, responded with a word, and hurried off.
Watching Shi Liyunās retreating figure, Wen Ruan raised his hand and touched his chin.
His charm was still there, huh? Why then was it that Professor Chi just couldnāt receive it?
Thinking of this, Wen Ruan remembered the handsome man who had come to pick up Chi Gui before.
His usually gentle peach blossom eyes deepened a bit, suddenly carrying a dark, chilly hint.
The aura of that man⦠definitely wasnāt that of an ordinary person.
After leaving the research institute, Wen Ruan walked a few steps further, made sure he wouldnāt run into anyone he knew, and then took out his mobile phone to dial a number.
His voice, which was always smooth and gentle, was now frighteningly cold, āCheck for me, who was the man who was following Professor Chi earlier.ā
ā
After wrapping up his work at the research institute, Chi Gui took the C-Level member training certification early the next morning and went to find Miranda.
After the training assessment, D-Level members wouldnāt stay at the International Medical Alliance but would return to their own workplaces.
Chi Gui sent a message to Miranda and found out she wasnāt at work, she was resting at home.
Miranda sent Chi Gui an address.
Chi Gui had never been to that place, but when Fu Si came to pick her up and saw the address, he raised his eyebrows, āGet in the car, Iāll take you there.ā
Half an hour later.
The car stopped in front of a somewhat dirty and messy alley.
Since arriving in M country, whether for work or living, Chi Gui had always been in safe and prosperous areas.
It was her first time coming to a place that emitted such decrepitude, like a slum.
Getting out of the car, Chi Gui slightly frowned and looked at the address in her hands.
āThis is the place.ā Fu Si took Chi Guiās phone, glanced down at it with calm phoenix eyes, as if he was already accustomed to the atmosphere here, āStay close to me and be careful.ā
Saying so, his long fingers naturally grasped Chi Guiās hand.
Chi Gui was taken aback for a moment.
The manās hand was warm and dry, with some calluses on his fingertips. They didnāt seem to come from rough labor, rather, they were more like⦠calluses from holding a gun for a long time.
Chi Gui couldnāt help but look up at Fu Si.
But she saw Fu Si was also looking down at her, those phoenix eyes dark under the shadow, as if inked, deep and abysmal as if they could suck one in.
Meeting Chi Guiās gaze, his eyes slightly lifted, and his low voice was indescribably pleasant, āIf you are scared, I am always welcome for you to dive into my arms.ā
Chi Gui: ā¦
She forcefully pulled her hand back and walked ahead.
Fu Si looked regretfully at the palm of his hand, as if the soft touch of the girl still lingered there, and he couldnāt help but gently squeeze his palm, following behind Chi Gui.
From outside the alley, it looked just like an old and decaying lane, but upon entering, Chi Gui discovered that at each alley mouth, there were several skinny men squatting or standing.
