Tao Yu was stunned. How could he be so casual about something that meant so much to him? But she quickly recovered and added, “But you said before that the item couldn’t be damaged, and if it was broken, the video would be transferred to the police system. So I thought it was better to break it myself than let Zhou Yanran take it, and you could find a way to retrieve the data.”
“How clever!” the butler couldn’t help but praise, then quickly stopped laughing when Yue Linze’s gaze swept over, speaking seriously, “The police have been investigating the sir’s car accident, and now the video evidence has been transferred. They should be coming soon. I’ll go wait at the door.”
He then left decisively.
Yue Linze finally looked at his phone, repeating calmly, “Where are you?”
Hearing the butler’s words, it seemed the matter could be resolved soon. Tao Yu rubbed the goosebumps on her arm and said in a normal tone, “Zhou Yanran locked me up, but it’s quite peaceful. Don’t worry about me first. Deal with Yue Linying. He hurt you, and I want him to pay.”
She thought that if Yue Linying was dealt with, and seeing Gu Yansheng’s angry face, and then getting back what belonged to him, his resentment might instantly dissipate, and she wouldn’t need to find him.
“Where?” Yue Linze frowned.
Tao Yu was helpless, “In a room, locked up. I’m really fine. Go solve your business quickly and come find me.”
Her voice was full of genuine concern, as if she would make any sacrifice just to make him happy. This was not the first time he had felt this sincerity.
Police sirens could be heard faintly outside. Yue Linze’s face looked unusually calm in the divided light and shadow, his gaze moist and his expression cold: “Okay, wait for me.”
Tao Yu smiled gently, pressed the blue gemstone on her brooch to ensure no sound, and then groaned, stomping her feet. Zhou Yanran was truly vicious, locking her in an abandoned cold storage room and turning on the freezing mode, clearly wanting her to die.
