Fog Returns to the Capital

Chapter 107 Please help me get away quickly...

……

……

When going back.

Just as Zhou Jinghuai stepped out of the club, he received a phone call. He asked Secretary Lin to take Li Wu back to Yuqingyuan, and then he left in another car.

When I got on the bus.

Li Wu turned around.

Through the glass, I watched her and Zhou Jinghuai drive away in opposite directions, and then the distance between them grew farther and farther.

Perhaps from the very beginning, they were destined to be two parallel lines that would never intersect.

When you can no longer see the rear of the car.

Li Wu turned around.

She looked at Secretary Lin sitting in the passenger seat and felt a sudden, inexplicable nervousness. But Secretary Lin seemed engrossed in her work, seemingly still dealing with unfinished business in the car, and didn't notice her at all.

But as Li Wu slowly reflected, if Secretary Lin's abilities weren't top-notch, why would Zhou Jinghuai have kept using him? Not to mention, he was the eldest son of the mayor of S City.

unless……

He knew something in advance that day.

Li Wu herself did not expect that she would actually manage to leave while using the mall's restroom as an excuse.

Li Wu left without taking anything with her. Because she was going to the station furthest from the city center, it was almost midnight when she arrived.

As she entered the station with the flow of people, Li Wu pulled her black hat down low and her black mask all the way up. Only her eyes were visible.

The waiting hall was packed with people, and all sorts of smells filled the air.

Li Wu almost couldn't squeeze in.

She found a bench with seats and sat down, not even daring to turn on her phone. She just kept looking up at the electronic screen, watching the time and the train schedule scrolling.

When Li Wu first fled to Beijing, she took one of these old-fashioned green trains. Unexpectedly, she now needs to take the same old green train to escape Beijing.

Within the vast expanse, it seems to be a cycle.

I checked the time again and again.

Li Wu was anxious, but she couldn't help but wait patiently.

【00: 25】

It was supposed to be the boarding time for the Liwu train, but the train never arrived.

Subsequently, Li Wu discovered that not only her train was delayed, but other trains that were supposed to arrive at the station at other times were also delayed.

It was as if that period of time had stood still.

But then.

An announcement came over the loudspeaker in the waiting hall, saying that due to weather conditions, trains would be delayed and passengers were asked to wait patiently.

ten minutes later.

Li Wucai followed the crowd toward the ticket check area.

However, Li Wu's ID card was never swiped. The staff member in charge of ticket checking picked up her ID card, glanced at it, and then told her to wait a moment and go through the manual lane.

Li Wu had already sensed something was wrong, just like when she tried to open the school gate with her student ID.

When I realized this.

Li Wu immediately said that she suddenly remembered that she had left something behind and would not leave for the time being.

But don't want to.

The staff member confiscated her ID card. Before Li Wu could even turn around, two other staff members politely invited her to the lounge, saying they could issue her a temporary ID card to ensure her trip wouldn't be delayed.

Are you sure you don't want to cause any delays?

Li Wu asked directly.

Before the staff could respond, dozens of synchronized footsteps echoed outside the lounge.

Li Wuxin's heart skipped a beat, but the moment she turned around and saw Xu Xiling, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xu Xiling!"

Li Wu rushed towards Xu Xiling, grabbing his sleeve tightly without any regard for etiquette. It was like a drowning person grabbing onto the last piece of driftwood.

A pleading tone escaped her lips, "Xu Xiling, Zhou Jinghuai has locked me up. Please help me get out of here..."

Li Wu didn't know why she asked Xu Xiling for help at the time.

Perhaps it was because he was wearing that green outfit, which made him look upright and righteous.

Xu Xiling lowered his eyes and looked at Li Wu, who was pleading with him for help.

His expression was somber, his eyes as dark as an abyss, as if countless complex emotions were churning within them. A hint of reluctance flickered in his eyes, and he then turned slightly to the side.

That moment.

Li Wu suddenly froze on the spot.

Zhou Jinghuai, having been there for an unknown amount of time, stood not far behind them, witnessing this scene firsthand.
