Chapter 172
It was more than two hours after the two of them went out again. Zhou Shu's stomach growled with hunger, and he awkwardly turned his face away from Li Jinyan with a resentful look in his eyes.

"I'll take you to dinner and say goodbye to Su Baiyi later."

Li Jinyan took her to have a meal in the hotel restaurant. During this period, Zhou Shu said nothing and was still angry because Li Jinyan had forcefully dragged her up from the bed.

The man chuckled, inexplicably finding her cute like this.

Say no more.

Zhou Shu ate with big mouthfuls, as if he had eaten Li Jinyan in one bite.

After eating, Li Jinyan took the initiative to pull away the co-pilot and let Zhou Shu sit on it.

Zhou Shu took one look, immediately changed direction and sat in the back seat of the car.

She didn't even look at Li Jinyan.

The man didn't care and drove towards the hospital.

But you're right, they all have to go back, and Su Baiyi has to make arrangements in advance.

She is still a patient now, and Zhou Shu can't really let her stay there alone, it would be too cruel.

She was also irresponsible. She was injured because of herself, and Zhou Shu would not let it go.

Li Jinyan said hello to Su Baiyi very thoughtfully and went out, giving the two of them time to talk.

"What's wrong? I see you two were quarreling?" Su Baiyi asked tentatively.

Zhou Shu shook his head and instead looked at the two people sitting in the innermost compartment of the ward.

They were wearing nurse uniforms, but obviously it wasn't the nurse who was staying in the ward so leisurely.

Sensing Zhou Shu's eyes, Su Baiyi also took a look: "Those two are the caregivers hired by Uncle Li for me. He said you can't take care of me."

"He is careful."

Zhou Shu snorted, looking obviously unhappy.

Li Jinyan thought so carefully that Zhou Shu could not refute.

"What's wrong? Did he bully you? Are you okay? I see that you are not in a good mood." Su Baiyi's eyes were full of concern.

"It's okay, but I have to go back first." Zhou Shu sighed and continued: "With the nurse taking care of you, nothing will happen to you. He said he would send someone to take you back when you feel better."

"Why!" Su Baiyi was puzzled and suddenly became emotional.

Zhou Shu looked helplessly in the direction outside the door. No matter what he said, Li Jinyan would not let him stay here.

In the hotel earlier, his attitude was too firm.

Su Baiyi knew it in her heart. No wonder she felt that Zhou Shu was not in high spirits from the moment she entered the door.

This is obviously being bullied!
"I'll go talk to Uncle Li! He probably won't refuse." Su Baiyi was about to get up.

But she was stopped by Ye Wanwan: "No, we won't be able to find anything if we stay here anyway. It's better to go back with him to avoid him becoming suspicious."

"That's right." There was indescribable disappointment in Su Baiyi's eyes.

She sat back down again in frustration, her eyes reluctant to leave.

"Don't be like this, I wasn't forced to go back."

Zhou Shu looked happy, but the fact was that she was not an obedient master.

Whether in front of Li Jinyan or Su Baiyi, Zhou Shu has always been like this.

If she really doesn't want to go back, there are eleven million ways for Li Jinyan to keep her.

But Zhou Shu didn't do that. Just like what she told Su Baiyi, nothing could be found if she stayed.

There is nothing worth investigating for Zhou Shu here.

This Gu Wen and Zhou Shu couldn't completely rule out the suspicion. Since Li Jinyan wanted to go back to investigate, he should go back with him. Maybe he could dig out some interesting things.

Therefore, Zhou Shu was reluctant on the surface, but still obediently agreed to go back.

"You haven't given up yet?" Su Baiyi was puzzled.

No matter how you look at it, this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Shu. Obviously, Gu Wen left the Li family after committing the crime.He has been on the run for many years, so there is nothing to be suspicious about.

Su Baiyi didn't understand and was helpless. Zhou Shu was so stubborn and refused to listen to advice.

At the same time, she already decided in her heart that Zhou Shu had nothing to do with this matter, but it was obvious that she didn't think so.

She probably didn't think as much as Zhou Shu, so she couldn't understand Zhou Shu's thoughts.

However, Su Baiyi supported Zhou Shu in this matter.

Zhou Shu shook his head, obviously not agreeing with what Su Baiyi said.

"I always feel that it's not that simple. Could it be that I missed something?" Zhou Shu pursed his lips in thought.

Probably a woman's sixth sense, Zhou Shu felt that this Gu Wen matter would not end so easily.

"Let nature take its course. Isn't Uncle Li investigating?"

"He wouldn't tell me even if I checked." Zhou Shu was not sure what Li Jinyan was thinking.

Even if his chat with Gu Wen today was deliberately revealed to him, Zhou Shu was sure that he only let himself know what he could know.

As for things like the results of subsequent investigations, who can say for sure?
"That's right, your position with him." Su Baiyi said halfway, feeling that he had said the wrong thing.

"Look, you understand the truth. There is no reason for me not to be on guard."

Zhou Shu let out a long sigh, feeling a little tired.

"Then what are you going to do next?" Su Baiyi was confused. She always felt that she had no clue.

Even if Zhou Shu goes back, there is no need to investigate, there is simply no way to start.

"Let's go back first. Whether it's my own matter or the Li family's matter, I have to investigate!" Zhou Shu's attitude was firm.

It was obvious that he had made up his mind to continue investigating what happened to the Li family back then.

Now that he has found out this step, Zhou Shu has no reason to look back now. Even if this is Li Jinyan's matter, Zhou Shu has an inexplicable premonition.

Just check it out like this, maybe there will be some unexpected gains.

"There's no harm in checking it out. Maybe we'll learn something terrible?"

Zhou Shu brushed it off casually.

Su Baiyi nodded: "That's true of you."

Speaking of which, Su Baiyi was also very curious about Li Jinyan's past.

"Actually, I seem to have heard my family talk about Mrs. Li before, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Su Baiyi was always easy to empathize with, but in this matter, Zhou Shu looked calm.

It's as if he is talking about someone who has nothing to do with him.

"Okay, then let me help you secretly check on that Gu Le." Su Baiyi took the initiative to take over this difficult task.

Zhou Shu nodded, Gu Le had to investigate, but Zhou Shu himself was indeed more than capable.

Zhou Shu also told Su Baiyi all the news he got from Li Jinyan in the past two days.

"Okay, then this person will trouble you." Zhou Shu nodded and said goodbye to Su Baiyi.

Li Jinyan was standing outside the door waiting for him, while Zhou Shu stood at the door and looked at him intently.

Maybe I misunderstood, or maybe not.

But for a person who has no sincerity, Zhou Shu doesn't want to be too emotional.

She looked away: "We're done talking."

"Let's go." Li Jinyan looked at the time. It was still a while before boarding, so he wasn't too anxious.

Along the way, Zhou Shu didn't say a word to Li Jinyan, sleeping silently or looking at the scenery outside the window.
