rink, have you found any trace of the child""No, still looking.""I don't have any news here either. Shall we widen the search area Maybe the child isn't in Beizhen City.""I've expanded," he said. He w...That night, Xu Honggang and Qiao Liang, Ye Xinyi went to Quanjude for a roast duck dinner. After the meal, Ye Xinyi returned to her room to rest, while Qiao Liang accompanied Xu Honggang for a walk.

When taking a walk, Xu Honggang spoke in a low voice: "Xiao Qiao, since I came to Beijing to study, I've vaguely felt that there was an undercurrent surging in Jiangzhou. This undercurrent seems to be getting more and more turbulent recently..."

Joe Liang looked at Xu Honggang in confusion, not knowing what to say.

Xu Honggang patted Qiao Liang on the shoulder: "When I'm not in Jiangzhou, you have to be extra careful about what you do. Think things through carefully before you act."

Qiao Liang nodded, looking at Xu Honggang's gloomy expression. His heart suddenly felt a bit uneasy, more so with confusion and ignorance.

The next day, because Qiao Liang had gone to bed early the previous night, he woke up around 5 a.m. He called Ye Xinyi's room and she was awake too. The two decided to head back as soon as possible.

So the two of them got up and checked out, driving straight away. When they left Beijing city, it was still dark.

I drove for two hours straight and had breakfast at the service area in between. I continued on my journey, passing Huangyuan in the morning around 9:30 and arriving at Guanzhou Service Area around 11:00. Another 100 kilometers ahead is Jiangzhou territory.

Joe brought the car into the service area, and the two got out to rest. Joe went to the restroom.

As I was walking to the bathroom, I saw a man and a woman hurrying out. The woman said as they walked, "We have to get to Guanzhou City Center quickly, or we'll be late for the wedding banquet."

"No rush, we have plenty of time. By the way, where is the wedding banquet being held"

"Guanzhou Grand Hotel..."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Qiao Liang recalled how he had tricked Chu Heng last Friday into saying they were going to Guanzhou for a wedding feast. He couldn't help but smile.

Joe Liang had just come out of the bathroom when his phone rang. He saw that it was Chu Heng calling him.

What the hell, why is Chu Heng calling himself at this time

"Chu Ge—" Qiao Liang immediately answered the call.

"Xiao Qiao, where are you in Guan Prefecture now" Chu Heng's voice echoed through the phone with a playful lilt.

Qiao Liang was startled. He wondered what he meant by that His mind raced: "I'm at the Guanzhou Highway exit, picking up some old classmates who were originally going to a wedding banquet, and then we're all going to the hotel."

"Oh, which hotel is the wedding banquet at" Chu Heng continued to ask.

Qiao Liang pondered for a moment, remembering the conversation between the man and woman he had just encountered. He immediately said, "Guanzhou Grand Hotel, how come, Brother Chu came to Guanzhou"

"No."

"Then Chu Ge asked me this..." Qiao Liang didn't understand what Chu Heng meant for a moment.

"That's it, Director Qin just called me. He went to the countryside today and found a nice inkstone. Director Qin knows I like calligraphy when I have nothing to do. He originally planned to give it to me when I had time to visit Guan Prefecture, but since you are in Guan Prefecture today, could you bring it back for me"

Chu Heng was pleased with his own idea of using Qiao Liang's verification. He had called Qin Chuan yesterday and learned that he would be going to the countryside today, so he asked him to help get a local specialty inkstone. If Qiao Liang was really in Guanzhou, then have him bring it back. If Qiao Liang was lying, it would naturally become apparent.

Qiao Liang immediately guessed Chu Heng's thoughts. There was no such coincidence, he must have used this to test himself.

"Alright, Brother Chu, after I finish drinking the wedding wine, I'll contact Director Qin to get the inkstone."

"You don't need to look for Director Qin. He's on his way back to the city from the countryside. I'll ask him to stop by and see you when he passes Guanzhou Hotel."

"That works too, I'm meeting with my classmates, around 12 o'clock to the hotel."

"Well, okay. I guess Minister Qin was probably there about the same time too."

After hanging up Chu Heng's phone, Qiao Liang broke out in a cold sweat. Damn it, luckily he stopped at the Guanzhou service area, luckily he just heard that conversation between the man and woman, otherwise, he wouldn't have had time to make up an excuse.

Heaven helps those who help themselves.

After Qiao Liang and Ye Xinyi got in the car, he said, "Department Head Ye, how about we have lunch in Guanzhou at noon"

"How come Didn't you eat at the highway service area" Ye Xinyi asked curiously.

"The food at the service area was too awful, let's go to GuanZhou for a good meal, I'll treat."

Ye Xinyi thought that Qiao Liang had suffered a lot along the way, and it was reasonable for him to have a good meal. She nodded: "Okay, then I'll treat you."

"Alright, I'll treat you. You pay." Qiao Liang grinned.

Yi Xinyi curled her lips, this guy is really a shrewd one who never suffers a loss, isn't he

Joe Liang drove off the highway at the Guanzhou exit, following the navigation's prompts straight to the Guanzhou Grand Hotel. He arrived around 12 o'clock.

The hotel was bustling with activity, as two wedding parties were holding their receptions there. Guests moved back and forth.

Qiao Liang parked the car in front of the hotel: "Let's eat here."

Ye Xinyi glanced outside and said, "People are having a wedding feast here. Why should we join in the fun Let's find another restaurant."

"I think this hotel is very classy, the food must be good. Let's eat here."

"

The hotel may be upscale, but the food isn't necessarily good.

"

"What You're not willing to spend money" Qiao Liang glared.

Ye Xinyi was taken aback. "Damn it, this guy is a little strange today. He has to join in the wedding celebration and deliberately provoke me."

"Hmph, eat then eat, you think I can't afford you" Ye Xinyi said as she got out of the car.

Qiao Liang also got out of the car, and the two went into the hotel. Qiao Liang asked the waiter, "We have two people eating, is there a table available"

The waiter said, "The large tables and private rooms have been booked for a wedding banquet. Only the zero-point restaurant upstairs is available."

"Okay, let's eat there." Qiao Liang looked at Ye Xinyi, "You go upstairs to order first, I'll take a stroll downstairs."

What are you transferring

"Let me see if the bride is pretty." Qiao Liang grinned.

Ye Xinyi rolled her eyes. What did it matter if the bride was pretty or not It wasn't like she was marrying him anyway. This guy was so boring.

Yè Xīnyí was too lazy to say anything to Qió Liáng, so she went straight upstairs to the Zero Point Restaurant. Qió Liáng was strolling around at the hotel entrance.

A black sedan pulled up and stopped. Qin Chuan got out of the car, carrying a bag in his hand. Qiao Liang hurried to greet him.

"Hello, Director Qin," Qiao Liang greeted Qin Chuan warmly.

"Hello, Director Qiao," Qin Chuan smiled and handed the bag to Qiao Liang. "This is an inkstone for Minister Chu. He said you were here for the wedding feast, so I took this opportunity to deliver it."

Qiao Liang took the bag: "Thank you, Minister Qin. Would you like to have a few drinks together"

Qin Chuan shook his head: "I don't know the bride and groom, so what kind of wedding wine am I drinking Besides, I didn't bring a gift, it would be embarrassing."

Qiao Liang nodded. "Well, that makes sense. Then I won't keep Minister Qin any longer."

"Goodbye, Director Qiao. Let's have a proper meal with Director Chu another day, my treat." Qin Chuan shook hands with Qiao Liang and then got into the car and drove away.

Then Qiao Liang put the inkstone in the trunk of the car and called Chu Heng: "Brother Chu, Minister Qin just gave me the inkstone, he's gone."

"Oh, alright then."

Just then, the wedding banquet began. Fireworks exploded, and Qiao Liang covered his ears and shouted loudly to Chu Ge, "Chu Ge, I won't say much more. The noise from the firecrackers is too loud here. I'm going in to drink wedding wine."

"Well, well, go ahead then. Have a little bit though, don't get too drunk and embarrass yourself."

"Okay, Chu Ge see you later." Qiao Liang hung up the phone, let out a cold snort, then walked into the hotel and upstairs.

Here, Chu Heng put down his phone and nodded. It seems this kid is really at Guanzhou to drink wedding wine, he didn't lie. while! If he had insisted on her sitting next to him from the beginning, she definitely wouldn't have gotten in again. She would rather walk!On the way back, Xu Qinghuan kept her head down, calculati...
