The arrogance of the city

Chapter 1557 Peeling off the cocoon and surfacing

"I'll just go up by myself, and you stay here."

"Yes, ma'am."

After leaving the bodyguard downstairs, Gu Qingcheng went upstairs alone, and arrived at the floor that was just found not long ago.

Standing at the door, with a calm expression, she raised her hand and knocked gently on the door.

"Dong dong dong..."

After a while, the door was opened from the inside, and what appeared in front of him was a strange woman who was about 30 years old by visual inspection.

"Who are you looking for?"

The other party looked at her suspiciously.

After a brief accident, Gu Qingcheng showed a polite and friendly smile.

"Excuse me, is this the home of Professor Yao Chenxi Yao?"

The doubts in Yue Ya's eyes remained undiminished, and she looked at the girl in front of her who seemed to be in her early twenties.

"You are……"

"I'm Gu Qingcheng, I used to be a student of Tunghai University..."

"Yue Ya, who's here?"

Before Gu Qingcheng finished speaking, Yao Chenxi's voice came from inside the room, and then Yao Chenxi's figure appeared at the door.

"Allure?"

Seeing Gu Qingcheng standing at the door, she was also startled.

Gu Qingcheng, who came to the door without authorization, nodded and smiled generously.

"Professor Yao, long time no see."

Yao Chenxi came back to her senses, and then quickly walked towards the door, stroked her hair, and forced a smile on her face.

"Qingcheng, why are you here?"

She greeted warmly: "Come in."

Although she has no teacher-student relationship with this girl, she is familiar with the other party's great reputation in Dongda.

Gu Qingcheng walked in, and Yue Ya, who still felt a little strange, closed the door.

"This is Gu Qingcheng. She used to be a student of our Dongda University. Of course, she is also a well-known campus beauty. Although it has been more than a year since she dropped out of school, many students still miss her."

The three of them sat down on the sofa. In front of the students, Yao Chenxi subconsciously put away her fragile appearance as a mother, and introduced to Yue Ya with a smile.

Only then did Yue Ya suddenly realize, and nodded and smiled kindly at Gu Qingcheng.

"I'm a friend of your Professor Yao, hello."

"Hello."

Gu Qingcheng smiled back.

"Let me pour you a glass of water."

Yao Chenxi was very polite, but was rejected by Gu Qingcheng: "Don't bother, Professor Yao, I came to see you today because I want to ask you something."

Yao Chenxi, who was about to get up to pour water, paused, inevitably surprised.

Even if she is her student, no matter how diligent and studious, it is impossible to come all the way to her home to ask questions, not to mention that Gu Qingcheng has dropped out of school for so long.

Could it be something at work?

That seemed even more impossible.

Although there were many doubts, but as a human soul engineer's bounden duty, even though he was full of confusion, Yao Chenxi still did not refuse Gu Qingcheng's advice in the end.

"what's up?"

"It is said that……"

Gu Qingcheng spoke quickly.

"...Professor Yao's family recently lost a child?"

There was thunder in the silent place.

Even Yue Ya couldn't help being taken aback.

After a short period of stiffness, Yao Chenxi's forced face inevitably revealed a trace of paleness and haggardness, and asked in surprise.

"……How did you know?"

"Mr. Yan told me."

Looking at Gu Qingcheng with a calm expression, Yao Chenxi's eyes fluctuated.

The entire East University knew that this girl had a good family background and was quite influential in the East China Sea, but no one knew about her background, perhaps only the principal knew.

Of course, at this time, Yao Chenxi didn't bother to think about the girl's family background, so she nodded slowly.

"Yes."

Gu Qingcheng spoke again.

"Professor Yao, may I take the liberty to ask, what is the relationship between that child and you?"

Hearing this, Yao Chenxi's pupils shrank violently, her whole body tensed up subconsciously, her thoughts turned sharply, her gaze did not collide with Gu Qingcheng, and she responded seemingly naturally: "That's my...nephew."

Yue Ya glanced at her when she heard the words, her face became a little weird, but she didn't interrupt.

"Professor Yao, I didn't mean to inquire into your family affairs, it was just because we almost found the child last night, but at the last moment, another group of unknown people stepped in and snatched the child away. "

Gu Qingcheng explained that she didn't seem to have any doubts about Yao Chenxi's statement.

"What did you say?!"

Yao Chenxi said nervously and astonished: "You found the child?!"

Gu Qingcheng nodded.

"Mr. Yan also sent me the news. When I learned about you, Professor Yao, I naturally would not stand by. Under tremendous pressure, one of the kidnappers surrendered himself to us two days ago. We should have rescued the child. If it weren't for another group of people intervening."

To avoid irritating Yao Chenxi, Gu Qingcheng deliberately omitted the bloody and violent scenes.

"Professor Yao, I can be sure that the group who snatched the child away last night is not the same group as the original kidnappers, so I had to go to you to confirm the identity of this child? Why are there so many people?" Want to snatch him?"

Yao Chenxi looked confused at this time, apparently greatly stimulated by the news brought by Gu Qingcheng, and Yue Ya who was on the side was also a little silly.

Kidnapping is fine, but why is it getting more and more complicated now?
Mr. Yan, and this girl, who are they?
There was no news from the police, but why did they say that the child was found and lost?
"He is really just an ordinary child. He has only been in this world for a few months. Why should he be treated like this..."

Yao Chenxi hesitated, with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng naturally couldn't continue to be aggressive.

"Professor Yao, you don't have to worry too much, we will definitely do our best to get the child back."

she reassured.

It's not about Yao Chenxi's face. As the leader of the more than 20 people who died tragically, she must find out the truth and seek justice.

"Qingcheng, thank you..."

Yao Chenxi thanked her from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Qingcheng shook his head.

"Professor Yao, although I regret not being your student, I have always respected you. When you encounter difficulties, as long as I have the ability, I will definitely not stand idly by."

Gu Qingcheng's tone was gentle and soothing like a spring breeze.

"By the way, Professor Yao."

Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, her expression became serious, she stared at Yao Chenxi, and said.

"According to the statement of the kidnapper who surrendered himself, the reason why he kidnapped the child was because he was hired by a rich man named Shi."

"Professor Yao, have you, or your family members, ever had any grudges against someone surnamed Shi?"

Yao Chenxi, who had never had any enemies before, shook her head subconsciously.

But Yue Ya on the side was startled, her eyes fluctuated violently, and she said incredulously and hesitantly.

"Surname Shi? It can't be... Shi Mo, right?"
