Gu Nianzhi instantly stopped at the doorway and almost couldn’t believe her own ears Her body froze before she looked back at He Zhichu and asked with shock, “Professor He, did I hear that right? You’re really willing to go to the United States and become Ye Xuan’s lawyer?!”
He Zhichu’s expression reht nose appeared even lass of red wine in one hand, he put his other hand in his trouser pocket as he assumed a leisurely posture However, there was now a look of absolute ruthlessness in his shi+ave other people, it was full of sharp and contradicting contrast
Gu Nianzhi didn’t have a very good understanding of He Zhichu as a person, unlike Huo Shaoheng If Huo Shao told her he would do soh But He Zhichu…? A faint trace of doubt and hesitation appeared in her eyes It wasn’t that she didn’t want He Zhichu to be Ye Xuan’s lawyer In fact, the truth was that there was no one better suited that He Zhichu When it came to where the laas concerned, Gu Nianzhi knew that she was even less confident with herself going personally than sending He Zhichu But what if He Zhichu dropped the ball at a crucial moment? There couldn’t be any mistakes with Ye Xuan’s case Gu Nianzhi couldn’t bear the consequences This was practically her last shred of hope
He Zhichu was already somewhat depressed, but as soon as he saw her little conflicted look, a subtle slass, he walked over to Gu Nianzhi and placed both hands on her straight and slender shoulders He said coolly, “Nianzhi, tell me—do you want to stay here and live here for the rest of your life?”
Gu Nianzhi cocked her head and looked at hirew up here, and this is o to any other countries Yeah, I’ve been to other countries, but I didn’t like them at all I only like it here”
“Ok, we’ll stay here since you like it” He Zhichu hugged her briefly and had already released her by the tio to the United States and bring Ye Xuan back”
“Professor He, are you really willing to do that?” Gu Nianzhi asked once again “This is very i”
“What’s important to you is even more important to me” He Zhichu stood before her with both hands in his trouser pockets He looked down at her fro a hint of warma and fascination
Gu Nianzhi looked up at him and squeezed her hands harder Sweat formed on her palms, and she heard herself say cal?”
He Zhichu sht”
“Oh? You’re leaving tonight already? But the Police Headquarters hasn’t sorted things out on their end yet…” Gu Nianzhi was very worried “You should go with the special police fros safer”
“So you actually know it’s not safe?” He Zhichu raised a brow “Are you worried about my safety?”
“Of course I’m worried about your safety, and not just yours, but the special police officers whoto the United States to extradite Ye Xuan back to the Hua Xia Empire I worry about them, too,” Gu Nianzhi replied honestly “But they are professionally trained and also have the nation’s support, so ainst theaze suddenly as cold as hail on a frozen night, expressing a hint of sharp pain “You’re doubtingyour abilities In this world, you are the only lawyer that I can be fully convinced by You being willing to be Ye Xuan’s lawyer is even better thanmyself” Gu Nianzhi said it very earnestly, so it was obvious she was being totally sincere
He Zhichu felt a little better inside and stroked her head “Then what are you afraid of?”
“What if… What if those people struggle in their death throes and struggle for life?” Gu NianzhiShe had studied all the news reports about Ye Xuan’s case, and thanks to the Sheriff of Little Rock Canyon’s love for holding press conferences, Gu Nianzhi was coress in the case From the press conferences, she learned that the ation experts had conducted an analysis of the scene of the fire Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help hacking into the website for the Little Rock Canyon police station, and from their system she found the fire scene analysis report by the FBI experts She had gleaned much insider inforation expert’s report concluded that the entire Vanderbilt family had been killed execution style before their corpses were burned A the deceased, aside frouards These bodyguards had been equipped with very sophisticated weapons and even had a dozen seuns and several boxes of auns and bullets were used on the lawyer’s family by the murderer
Also, Mr Vanderbilt was a secretly rich person Everyone knew that A how a very ordinary lawyer specializing in family affairs such as divorces and wills in Little Rock Canyon, Utah, could ae fortune He was very discreet but hired extreuards for himself and equipped theh he had such tight security measures in place, the entire fa a trap to fra to escort Ye Xuan back to the Hua Xia Empire would be met with brutal attacks And from the way Gu Nianzhi saw it, He Zhichu didn’t seeht off the eneh, but if he really encountered a heinous criht he would be unlikely to survive
“So you’re actually worried about such useless things” He Zhichu snorted quietly “Looks like you don’t understandabout Professor He that I don’t know?” Gu Nianzhi’s heart treave him a sly smile She wasn’t in a rush to leave and still wore her backpack as she quietly closed the door
He Zhichu spied her little move room “There’sDon’t you have any concept of privacy?”
“I’ about Professor He’s privacy” Gu Nianzhi followed him and asked with curiosity, “I only want to knohat Professor He is relying on to not worry about the mastermind behind Ye Xuan’s case”
