Part Two: The East Land Great Sugar, Chapter 80: Sleeping on

nds on Xu Wei's body, which prove that his confession was signed under duress and coercion. When she reviewed the case files, she discovered that the officers who interrogated Xu Wei had a history of...Gu Ruandong was afraid she wouldn't listen, so he continued, "What I just said is that you lack the awareness of being Mrs. Gu. It's because you haven't used your rights as Mrs. Gu. Whenever you hear or see any rumors that make you uncomfortable, you can contact me immediately, and I will handle it. As Mrs. Gu, there's no need to be magnanimous."

Lu Yaoyao sarcastically said, "Then you probably can't handle it"

Gu Ruandong admitted: "Yes, the foolish things I did before are now getting retribution. I will definitely change in the future, will you supervise me to reform"

All this roundabout explanation was just to tell her about Liao Liao. According to Lu Yao Yao's past mindset, she wouldn't have even bothered with Liao Liao. She would have understood his actions and stance perfectly well. It's just that this happened during a sensitive period when she was rebuilding her inner self, so it stuck with her.

Since he explained, she let it go. She wasn't one to hold grudges anyway.

Outside the window, snow was falling heavily. Fortunately, the driver was experienced and drove steadily forward. They couldn't stop, otherwise the snow would only get heavier, and they might be trapped on the road.

Lu Yaoyao's nerves, which had been tense all day, relaxed at this moment. She felt a little lazy and just watched the lonely snowflakes drifting outside the window, a gray and gloomy scene.

Gu Ruandong looked at her profile, a pang of pain in his heart. She was no longer the carefree and energetic little girl she used to be. Even she had moments of loneliness.

Because of what happened to the Lu family, Gu Ruandong himself fell into a quagmire of self-blame and self-doubt for a long time, unable to reconcile with himself. So he always thought about solving things first before he was qualified to love her. Yaoyao said that his machismo wasn't wrong at all.

Although he still couldn't fully reconcile with himself, during this time, he at least understood that he had to drag her along with him. Otherwise, they would truly be separated.

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but reach out and rub her head. She hissed, protecting her head, and glared at me angrily.

Gu Ruandong panicked and hurriedly turned on the car's top light: "Are you hurt"

She shook her head. "No, someone pulled my hair, my scalp hurts a little." Thinking of her hair, she felt another wave of sadness.

"Let me have a look." Gu Ruandong lowered his head and gently stroked her hair, at the back of her head. It was indeed slightly red there. He knew how much she cherished her hair, and he felt sorry for her.

"Is there anywhere else hurt" she asked softly, blowing gently.

The warm breath he exhaled brushed the top of her head, and she tilted her head to avoid it. "None left," she said.

Gu Ruan Dong held a few strands of fallen hair in his hand, afraid she would see them, so he twisted them together, forming a small ball that he kept in his palm.

Lu Yaoyao suddenly turned back to look at him, wanting to speak but holding back.

He smiled faintly: "What's wrong"

"We just rescued a girl in that village."

I still couldn't hold it in, I had to tell him. Otherwise, it would have been unbearable.

The pride in their eyes could not be concealed. The light within them shone like a lamp guiding travelers through the snow-covered night, piercing the darkness and illuminating every shadowed path among the mountains.

Gu Ruandong's heart was warm, she was still his light. This time, he ignored her struggle and held her in his arms: "I know, our Yaoyao has always been great."

In the process of growing up, one might bleed and suffer greatly, but the essence of who they are will always remain the same.

The snow was still heavy on the road. When they reached the county seat, the highway was closed, so they had to find a hotel in the city temporarily.

Because it's near the Chinese New Year, even hotels in the county town are almost full. Finally, I found a resort hotel at the foot of the mountain. It's a bit remote, but the environment is clean and there are a few vacant rooms.

She shared the hotel address in the foundation's group chat and said to Gu Ruandong in front of him, "Brother Jingye, don't drive towards the highway, the highway has just been closed, and the navigation may not have been updated yet."

"The hotel has been booked for you, just go to the front desk to check in."

In the group chat, Chen Ling replied: "Haven't you gotten on the highway We were with the police car and already got on."

Lu YaoYao

Gu Ruandong raised an eyebrow and said nothing, the two returned to their room.

It was a spacious bedroom, worlds apart from the hotels they had stayed in before. But after last night's fiery kang bed, Lu Yaoyao felt that this room was already paradise.

Given the unpleasant experience at the hotel last time, Gu Ruandong was very well-behaved this time. After entering the room, he didn't look at her much. He just asked the hotel staff to change a new set of sheets and quilt cover for them, and also had two new yukatas sent up.first to do so, directly offering an eight-figure price, crushing the competition outright. He acted decisively and efficiently, leaving no room for anyone to haggle, test the waters, or push back and...
