Searching for Treasures in the Clouds
Chapter 68 The Possibility of Conspiracy
the next morning,
Yun Jixing came to see Yu Ru again.
He was leaving Huacheng for a business trip this afternoon and would not be back for a week, so he wanted to come and say goodbye to Yu Ru. When he arrived at Yu Ru's door, Yu Ru was just going out. She was dressed tightly and had a mask on her face.
"Aru, are you going out?"
Yu Ru nodded.
Yun Jixing’s proposal yesterday made her a little upset, so she went out for a stroll today to relax. She hadn’t wandered around for a while, so she had to go out and take a look.
"Aru, I have to leave Huacheng for a business trip this afternoon. I have a lot of things to do and may be away for a week before returning. I came here today just to see you and talk to you. If you have anything, just call me and I will find someone to handle it for you."
Yu Ru nodded again, [Be careful outside, and come back early...early.]
In fact, she has already accepted most of Yun Jixing. After all, apart from his external advantages such as family background and education, his own qualities are already remarkable enough. She likes the way he behaves and his attitude towards people. However, the deepest scars hidden in her body still stand in her way, and she needs some time to push them aside before she can accept him.
A week might be enough for her to eliminate those troublemakers, or it might not. However, no matter whether it is possible or not, she still hoped that Yun Jixing would come back sooner. She wanted to see him and feel at ease.
Hearing Yu Ru's instructions, Yun Jixing smiled happily, "Aru, this time is special. The business trip will take a while. I used to come back in less than a week. Don't worry, I will definitely come back to accompany you as soon as possible."
When he was on a business trip before, he had a lot of schedule, but it was not urgent. He had some time after finishing his work. No matter how tired or late he was, he would catch the last flight back to Huacheng. He was afraid that if something happened to Yu Ru, he would not be by her side. He did not want to see Yu Ru helpless again.
This time, there was really no other way. Everything was too tightly scheduled. He could come back if he could, but it might test his physical and mental endurance. He still wanted to be healthy, not only for himself, but also for Yu Ru to have a healthy husband to support her in the future.
Yu Ru nodded, made a "wait a minute" gesture, turned back into the house, took out the gifts prepared for Chi Qinghuai and the cook and gave them to Yun Jixing.
……
After parting with Yun Jixing, Yu Ru took public transportation to wander around outside alone. She liked going to forest parks, wetland parks and zoos the most. In short, she liked anything that had to do with nature.
But these places are a bit far away, and there were no tickets available today, so she went to a cattery and spent the whole morning watching the cats.
When it was time for dinner, she chose a Chinese restaurant to eat. Before sitting down to order, she went to the restaurant's toilet. After walking a short distance, she saw two men who made her feel a little sneaky. She didn't dare to look at them for too long. She glanced at them casually and then looked away, walking forward without looking away.
As she passed by the two men, she heard one of the sentences in their conversation: Do you really want to keep Zuo Buqiu?
This sentence slowed her down. She was sure that she had not heard wrongly. This sentence made her smell a hint of conspiracy. The two men made her feel that they were not good people. Many times, she could not protect herself, let alone meddle in other people's affairs. But the two men mentioned a name, Zuo Buqiu.
She knew a Zuo Buqiu and was very impressed by her. On the one hand, it was her name, Buqiu, which means "Eighteen or nineteen things are not satisfactory, so don't ask for things when you shouldn't ask for them." What a cool name, just like the reclusive hero in martial arts novels, it is hard not to remember her.
On the other hand, Zuo Buqiu was a girl who was one year older than her and went to the same university as her. She knew her and had done business with her. She had helped her design posters twice.
She had a good impression of Zuo Buqiu. Although he was a second-generation rich man, he was approachable and not arrogant. He would volunteer in some welfare homes and nursing homes when he was free. There were more or less disabled people in those welfare institutions, so Zuo Buqiu also learned sign language. Perhaps because she could not speak normally in front of others, Yu Ru gave good basic scores to people who knew sign language, and Zuo Buqiu was one of the high scorers.
A high score is one thing, but does she need to investigate further for a person whose client is not sure whether it is Zuo Buqiu's conspiracy? She is not even very familiar with Zuo Buqiu.
The most crucial point is that the consumption in this restaurant is very high, close to four figures per person, and the people who come here to consume are either rich or noble. If she investigates the people here, she might implicate herself and put herself in a bad situation.
After struggling for a few seconds, Yu Ru decided to observe the situation.
There were free self-service dessert and fruit areas in several corners of the restaurant for guests to enjoy. There was one a few steps ahead, so she walked over and pretended to pick desserts and fruits. There were two adults and a child picking in the area where she was, so she didn't look out of place with them.
She slowly looked at the desserts and fruits, but was actually listening to the two men's conversation. Suddenly, their voices became closer, and they also came over to pick desserts and fruits.
"How long are we going to stay here?" one of the men asked.
"I don't know. Anyway, it won't be that fast. Let's go back when the phone rings." Another person responded.
……
The two men were also slowly picking and choosing in the dessert and fruit section. They said a few obscure words to each other and then stopped talking.
Their words sounded fine at first, but they sounded strange when you think about it carefully. Yu Ru guessed that one of their leaders was setting up a trap to harm someone, and the means were very insidious, involving pornography and violence, right now. The victim was most likely Zuo Buqiu, and it was very likely that he was the Zuo Buqiu she knew. The probability of having the same name should be quite small, as the surname was uncommon and the first name was also uncommon.
She now had to make a second choice quickly, otherwise, there might be one more tragedy in the world.
After brainstorming for more than ten seconds, Yu Ru made a decision. She had to stop all this. Everything was not as she thought. It would be best if the Zuo Buqiu she knew was not here. If she was here, she would see if she could get her out. She had already thought of a plan.
She knew the owner behind the restaurant, a woman two years older than her. She had also participated in part of the design of the restaurant in its early stages.
In addition to this, because the boss is a 2D fan and has asked her to draw many pictures, she is somewhat familiar with the boss, and if she has anything to do here, she can have a say.
The two men should have just come out of the toilet. Yu Ru was familiar with the layout of the restaurant. Judging from the toilet they went to, their dining area should be in Area D of the restaurant. If she wanted to be safer, she would go to Area B which was the farthest away.
