This little white cat shouldnât be underestimated by its appearance, itâs cunning as can be.
Itâs far smarter and more situationally aware than its owner.
Thus, Gu Qiaoqiao no longer bothered with Xiao Bai; she looked ahead, thinking that now she should head to that Cliff Village in the Southwest.
Take a look at what the villageâs current state is like.
Itâs very poor there, the wives rely on trade for their living.
Although she has dodged this calamity in her lifetime, others arenât as lucky, so Gu Qiaoqiao decided to take Xiao Wen and Ling Nan there after dealing with matters in the Imperial Capital.
Especially after seeing An Xiaotong today, this thought became even stronger.
They soon arrived at the Jade Carving Workshop, and by this time it was already ten in the morning.
As Gu Qiaoqiao was getting out of the car, she immediately saw Xiao Bai running towards her.
This Xiao Bai really did follow her here.
Gu Qiaoqiao originally didnât want to bother with it, but after thinking it over, she still turned and walked towards Xiao Bai.
This time, Xiao Bai didnât rub against her feet nor did it roll around acting cute; instead, its eyes showed a worried expression.
One moment pointing with its paw in a direction, another moment running over, then running back again...
It looked quite distressed.
Cats canât talk, but its actions seemed like it wanted Gu Qiaoqiao to go somewhere with it.
Go somewhere?
Could Dongfang Yu have sent it?
Immediately, Gu Qiaoqiao dismissed that thought.
No way!
If Dongfang Yu wanted to say something to her, he could have done so when they were alone in the hospital room just now.
No need for a separate meeting.
Besides, given his health right now, being alone with Gu Qiaoqiao is dangerous for Dongfang Yu.
So he wouldnât give her such an opportunity.
If itâs not Dongfang Yu looking for her, then why was Xiao Bai acting so strangely?
Gu Qiaoqiao squatted down, frowned and asked, "Xiao Bai, whatâs wrong with you?"
But Xiao Bai was extremely anxious.
Unfortunately, it couldnât speak; it could only meow.
Standing up, Gu Qiaoqiao whispered, "Whatever the matter, I canât help you; you should leave..."
Gu Qiaoqiao checked earlier; Xiao Bai hadnât suffered any injuries.
Since Xiao Bai was fine, she decided not to worry about it.
Actually, she had a rough idea that maybe something had happened to Dongfang Yu.
So this Xiao Bai was asking her for help.
But why couldnât this silly cat understand?
It could ask anyone for help, but not her!
Gu Qiaoqiao couldnât help recalling how yesterday Qin Yize had told her, while leaving, about arrangements he had made for subsequent matters, assuring her not to worry...
Could it be that Qin Yize and the young man named Nie Luan just now did something?
Has Dongfang Yu been captured?
If thatâs the case, then itâs actually a good thing.
Gu Qiaoqiao turned and entered the Jade Carving Workshop.
Meanwhile, Xiao Bai, crestfallen, squatted by the curb, looking at the closed gate, knowing full well that it was desperately seeking help in the wrong place.
Seeking help from anyone shouldnât be from Gu Qiaoqiao.
But there was no one it could turn to now.
The most familiar with it was Shang Qing.
Yet finding Shang Qing was even less likely.
If it was before, maybe, but now Shang Qing definitely wouldnât help it.
At this moment, Xiao Bai suddenly felt that the vast Imperial Capital seemed empty, without even one person who could help the owner.
What on earth is going on?
