I Help the Richest Man Spend Money to Prevent Disasters
chapter-368

Gu Ren’s black eyes stared at her for a long time before he slowly said, “When the plan is implemented, I hope to be by your side.”

Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment. When her eyes locked with his, she saw his firm belief as if it was a fire lit amidst a heap of silent snow.

“So,” Gu Renhu pulled the corners of his lips and smiled lightly, “Miss Ye, can I apply for a position to work for you?”

The somewhat serious atmosphere previously suddenly dissipated as Gu Ren made a joke. Ye Zhi thought it was interesting, so she raised her eyebrows, put her hands around her chest lightly and leaned back.

Ye Zhi looked at Gu Ren for a while. Her eyes conveyed her emotions like an open book and she seemed to be provocative, “Sir, let’s talk about it then, what are you good at?”

“What am I good at?” Gu Ren lowered his eyes and thought for a while, “I’m good at protecting you and preventing you from getting hurt.”

“And…” Gu Ren’s voice paused slightly before he tilted his head and leaned against Ye Zhi’s ear.

Gu Ren inadvertently brushed her earlobe. As his warm breath hit, the small and fair earlobe was stained with a creeping blush. A wave of numbness started to spread along with his breath over her ear.

The moonlight evoked a cool and faint tension from his frame, but when he curled his lips and smiled, the atmosphere turned gentle.

He uttered two words softly.

(T/N: Author didn’t explain, but I’ll leave what he says to your imagination)

Ye Zhi’s back stiffened and her face flushed red before she pushed Gu Ren out and closed the door.

His warm body temperature seemed to linger all around her despite the absence of his physical form as the sound of her frantic heartbeat remained in the room.

Gu Ren and Ye Zhi handed over Liu Cang’s criminal evidence to the police. The police had been secretly investigating Liu Cang’s abduction and trafficking records, so doing so was just making their work a little bit more convenient.

Gu Ren also mentioned Sheng Lian’s matter to the police. As Ye Zhi’s family, the police agreed to let Gu Ren participate in this matter.

After the police had made their preparations, they decided to arrest Liu Cang. On that day, Liu Cang was taken to the police station by the police. When he got there, he found a tall man standing inside.

The man stood silently with his back facing him. Although he didn’t see his face, the man exuded a cold and intimidating aura.

It was extraordinarily conspicuous, but also seemingly indifferent.

Hearing the man’s movements, Gu Ren turned around slowly and his black eyes looked at Liu Cang nonchalantly.

Gu Ren still bore that cold and distant look, but the moment he saw Liu Cang, his beautiful brows were slightly wrinkled and the bottomless emotion swayed in his eyes.

Liu Cang didn’t know who Gu Ren was as he only vaguely noticed that he seemed to be hostile towards him. When Gu Ren lowered his eyes and glanced at him, Liu Cang felt a sense of oppression.

He was shocked.

But when he looked at him again, Gu Ren’s expression was indistinct.

Sheriff Qi Cheng looked at Liu Cang, “You have been abducting and trafficking people for many years and now, the police have obtained evidence of your crime. If you want to reduce your sentence, you’d better cooperate with us.”

Although Liu Cang was frightened, he had never encountered any serious problems throughout the years. Even when the police talked to him, he would eventually be released due to the insufficient evidence.

Liu Cang said confidently, “Why should I cooperate with you? You have no evidence to prove that I did any sort of trafficking.”

At this moment, Gu Ren suddenly opened his mouth. He had half a smile plastered on his face, but his words were extremely cold, “You’re saying that you want evidence?”
