"I know, but I believe Qin Yize would never do such a thing," Gu Qiaoqiao said, somewhat anxiously.
Elder Shen’s face remained calm, he neither nodded nor shook his head, but simply replied to Gu Qiaoqiao, "You came to see me just for this matter, right?"
"Yes, Grandpa Shen, can I see him now?"
Elder Shen pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Go see him, but you cannot talk."
Gu Qiaoqiao stood up excitedly, bowed to Elder Shen, and her eyes filled with tears, "Grandpa Shen, thank you."
Elder Shen waved his hand, "Go on, go on."
Loo Zhigang took Gu Qiaoqiao through several twists and turns and then into a car, and they went to a place.
This place was heavily guarded, with high walls and a large courtyard.
It was clearly a place of heavy security.
It turned out Qin Yize was being held here.
She recalled Elder Shen’s words; this too was a form of protection.
After going through several levels of checks, Gu Qiaoqiao saw Qin Yize outside the guard room.
The Qin Yize who walked in looked calm, but the moment he saw Gu Qiaoqiao, a trace of surprise and tenderness flitted across his eyes.
He then smiled at Gu Qiaoqiao.
The two of them looked at each other through a glass window...
Using her excellent eyesight, Gu Qiaoqiao sized up Qin Yize from top to bottom, and knowing that he was unharmed, her heart settled.
The two communicated silently with their eyes.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know how to express the multitude of words in her heart.
And Qin Yize’s lips always bore a faint smile.
With his tender gaze, he soothed Gu Qiaoqiao, telling her that everything was alright, and that he would be out soon.
He told Gu Qiaoqiao to wait for him at home peacefully.
At this moment, Qin Yize still had no idea that his second uncle and cousin had also run into trouble.
Her eyes were moist, yet her lips also wore a smile.
In this world, there is an understanding that words are superfluous...
Simply looking at each other in silence was enough to communicate their thoughts and feelings.
Qin Yize wove a net with his gently affectionate gaze.
Enveloping Gu Qiaoqiao softly within it.
At this moment, something truly was different from other days.
So, there they were, separated only by the glass, a young man and a delicate young girl gazing at each other from afar.
In that moment, it seemed that all else in the world had receded from them.
There were no more troubles, no more worries, and no more framing or entrapment.
It was as if they were not in a detention room.
But rather standing in a meadow filled with blooming flowers.
There was blue sky and white clouds... green grass underfoot...
In the gaze they shared, there was trust!
And this trust was the strength that allowed Qin Yize to continue moving forward.
Although he knew that Gu Qiaoqiao was a smart girl,
she would believe in him.
But when he fundamentally couldn’t see Gu Qiaoqiao,
it was impossible for his heart not to feel uneasy.
Sometimes, in certain aspects, he was incredibly confident.
However, in the realm of love, even the seemingly invincible Qin Yize had his moments of insecurity and anxiety.
He was very concerned that Gu Qiaoqiao would come to loathe him because of this incident.
In this world, everyone may not trust him,
But Gu Qiaoqiao alone could not be among them!
Fortunately, the moment he saw Gu Qiaoqiao,
he knew that Qiaoqiao trusted him.
This realization made waves of joy surge in Qin Yize’s heart,
Though he earnestly suppressed them.
