When Gu Lili woke up, her whole being felt as if sothing was suddenly missing.
She didn’t know if it was just a dream she had because she saw him today or if it was a premonition.
It was unclear.
She sat there, thinking carefully about the scene in her dream.
He was wearing the suit he had on at the restaurant today.
She glanced at the ti, 5:15 AM.
Why had such a brief dream resulted in her sleeping for over an hour?
Gu Lili got out of bed, put on her shoes, grabbed her bag, and ran out.
It wasn’t until she was in the car on the way to Long Group that she rembered, even if it was real, what did it have to do with her?
Why did she want to go?
If it was fake, just a fleeting dream, and she drove there and happened to see him, wouldn’t that be...
Forget it, real or not, they had been husband and wife after all, she should go and take a look.
Having thought this, Gu Lili floored the accelerator, her gaze fixed straight ahead.
It was past 5 PM, pri ti for students leaving school and workers getting off work; the traffic was severely congested, not to ntion the traffic lights every so often.
Seeing it was already half-past five, her brow furrowed.
Two li away from Long Group, she parked her car directly in front of a store, and upon getting out, she realized with delayed shock that she was unfortunately wearing a pair of high heels.
She took off her shoes and, in her socks, ran as fast as she could.
Passers-by turned their heads to look at her.
Gu Lili didn’t care, she ran the two li distance to the Long Group parking lot entrance without stopping.
"Have... has President Long’s car left?" Gu Lili asked, panting heavily.
The on-duty uncle was stunned to see her, then responded, "No."
Gu Lili dashed inside like a gust of wind; by the ti the uncle reacted, she was already out of sight.
Once inside the parking lot, she put on a mask and looked for Long Yubei’s car.
Among so many cars, she was able to spot his in just a glance.
The parking lot was very quiet, with no person or even a shadow in sight.
Consciously, she lightened her steps and stood not far behind a pillar next to his car.
If she could see him safely driving out of the parking lot, then she would consider the dream purely fictional.
Five minutes passed, and the elevator doors of the underground parking lot opened. Long Yubei, wearing his usual white shirt with his suit jacket draped over one arm, erged.
Several bodyguards followed behind him.
Gu Lili, pressing herself against the pillar, watched as he slowly walked towards a white car.
"Coming is easy, leaving is hard; decades spent in the world’s travel, partings are easy, reunions hard; the eternal sorrow of love and hatred, the heart that should belong to you, still clutches tightly to my chest..." His phone rang from his trouser pocket, playing the climax part of the song she sang about the rolling red dust.
"Hello."
"..."
Gu Lili didn’t know who called him, but she saw his expression change in an instant, his voice hard and cold, "Let her go..."
"..."
"If you have an issue, co at , you bastard, let her go!"
Gu Lili shuddered, having never seen him this enraged.
It was like a torrential rage rolling in.
Who was kidnapped and used to threaten him?
The threats he could face were likely to involve his family.
Feng Xi? Or Tian Jiao? Or soone else?
As Gu Lili was pondering, Long Yubei hung up the phone.
He stood there and said to his bodyguards, "You guys go ahead."
With just that one sentence, Gu Lili’s vigilance was triggered, and she imdiately sent a ssage to Tang Qingli.
