I ADORE HIM - Season 2 Episode 72

“There’s no need to call the police! She’s just staying somewhere else for the night! She’s a grown woman, she can look after herself.” Gu Yusheng happened to be passing by a shelf with porcelain on it, and he reached out to grasp the porcelain and smash it onto the ground without blinking. With the shattering, loud sound, he opened his mouth again and said furiously, “You aren’t allowed to look for her any more. If she left, she left, and should never come back. You go upstairs and pack her things up, then throw them out of my house!”

After saying that, Gu Yusheng, gnashing his teeth, put his hands on his hips and walked several circles in the living room, then moved to the hallway. When he was ready to go out after he had opened the door, he yelled angrily to the housekeeper in the villa, as if he had remembered something, “And, change the code for the door!”

Immediately afterwards, he slammed the door and climbed into his car.

Before Gu Yusheng started the car, he couldn’t help but take out his phone to call 110. When he was about to dial the phone number, he finally realized that the case would only be accepted after the disappearance had lasted over twenty-four hours.

He threw the phone on the passenger seat next to him. The housekeeper’s words started echoing in his ears.

She’s only wearing pajamas, is she in danger now?

The more Gu Yusheng thought, the more anxious he became. Eventually, he stepped on the gas and drove slowly along the roads and streets as he continued to look for her.

When he passed by the street of pubs, he saw a completely drunk woman who was being held up by her armpits by a man walking toward a nearby hotel.

The woman was slim and resembled Qin Zhi’ai. Gu Yusheng parked the car by the roadside reflexively, rushed out with the door still open, and roughly pulled the woman into his arms.

“What are you doing?” The man who had just been supporting the woman became angry all of a sudden, yelling, “Who are you? That’s my wife!”

As he yelled, he dragged the drunk woman back from Gu Yusheng’s arms and stood in front of her, glaring at Gu Yusheng guardedly.

Gu Yusheng frowned, took several steps back silently after he realized that he had mistaken the woman. He went back to his car and continued to drive slowly on the streets. When he got back home, it was already six o’clock in the morning, and dawn had come.

The housekeeper, who hadn’t slept that night, was now preparing breakfast in the dining room. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she came out of the kitchen with a spatula. “Mr. Gu, do you want something to eat?”

Eat? Is this the time to eat?

Gu Yusheng waved his hands at the housekeeper. This time, he wasn’t about to lose his temper. He sat on the sofa and stared outside the window for a while, then took the phone and dialed someone’s number.

Whatever, I have to call Lu Bancheng to check if he knows where Qin Zhi’ai is. Although Gu Yusheng didn’t want Lu Bancheng to get close to her, he really hoped that she had called him or was at his home.

However, after he got through to Lu Bancheng, he found he wasn’t even awake yet. Hearing Gu Yusheng ask where Liang Doukou was, Lu Bancheng was shocked for a moment, then responded confusedly, “How would I know? Why did call me when you couldn’t find her? That has nothing to do with me!”

Lu Bancheng was the last person he had thought might know where she was, but now that he knew she hadn’t contacted him, where could she be?
