Si Xia glanced at Zhan Jiuyan from time to time.

Looking restless.

Zhan Jiuyan noticed something, suddenly turned around, and caught her gaze, "Is there something on my face?"

Si Xia reflexively wanted to look away, but with a thought in her mind, she instead spoke out what was in her heart, "If Lu Xueyan was not kidnapped this time, and the only kidnapped person was Tongtong, would you still come here in person?"

Zhan Jiuyan narrowed his eyes.

The little guy just kept staring at him. Is this what he was thinking about?

He was silent for a moment and said slowly, "Yes, today I am indeed here for Lu Xueyan's matter. However, saving your friend is not just a matter of course. She once took you in, and I will keep her safe regardless of emotion or reason.

So you don’t have to worry about it.”

Those simple words made Si Xia blush involuntarily.

He said that he would save Tongtong because of her.

Then can she understand that her position in his heart is still relatively important?

It allows him to go out in person regardless of the inconvenience of his legs and feet, and the hard work of traveling and traveling.

Seeing Si Xia lowering her head and saying nothing, Zhan Jiuyan frowned and reached out to lift her chin, "Are you angry?"

Si Xia was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

That silly and cute look made Zhan Jiuyan feel so cute.

He couldn't help but curl his lips, "Lu Zhanpeng called me. He just hung up the phone before I entered the police station. He was urging me to deal with Lu Xueyan's matter."

The implication is that coming to deal with Lu Xueyan's matter was not his original intention.

He had pressure from his family to do this.

Si Xia was stunned for a moment and immediately knew that he had misunderstood, "That's not what I meant."

Zhan Jiuyan frowned, "Isn't that what you mean?"

"Yes, it is true that Lu Xueyan and I have nothing to deal with. But after all, she is also Zhan Che's mother, and the Zhan family and the Lu family are family friends, so you should help."

"Then what are you angry about?"

Si Xia was suddenly shocked and couldn't laugh or cry, "I'm not angry."

How should she explain to him that her silence just now was just because she was thinking wildly?

Ever since Zhan Jiuyan said to her, "I'm just jealous," her heart began to waver.

Sometimes when I see him, my heart beats uncontrollably.

Even my head is confused.

Zhan Jiuyan, a straight man, could never guess the delicate thoughts of the little girl.

He looked seriously and carefully observed Si Xia's expression. After making sure that she was not saying anything sarcastic, he let go of her and said, "Get out of the car."

"ah?"

Looking at her big wet eyes, she is as pure and innocent as Bambi.

Zhan Jiuyan's serious and cold handsome face actually showed a rare hint of a teasing smile, "You're addicted to staying with me, don't you want to get off the car?"

"Ah? Oh!"

Si Xia looked around and realized that the large army had stopped.

Lu Ran turned around and said, "Master Jiu, there is news from the front. The kidnapper found out that he was being followed by the special police. He abandoned the car and ran away. He should have run into the mountains."

Zhan Jiuyan nodded and got out of the car.

Si Xia followed him.

There are no street lights in this deep mountain.

Plus there's no moon tonight.

At the entrance to the deep mountain, there was almost no light except for the sporadic light emitted by the SWAT police and search and rescue dogs.

It's dark, chilly, and freezing.

Lu Ran walked over, said hello to Director Song, and then came back, "Master Jiu, a small team of people will be left here on standby. There is a mountain road here, which is relatively rugged, otherwise you and the young lady will stay here.

Wait for the news?"

Zhan Jiuyan was about to nod, but Si Xia spoke first, "Assistant Lu, I will go up the mountain with you."

"But..." Lu Ran glanced at Zhan Jiuyan in embarrassment.

The young lady has a delicate body.

The temperature is low in the mountains and the road is not easy to walk. If he gets injured and falls, he will not be able to do his job.

Zhan Jiuyan frowned and looked at Si Xia.

Who knew that Si Xia wouldn't give him a chance to speak at all, "I will follow closely and will never hold you back. Tongtong was kidnapped because of me, I can't sit still."

As she said this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

"Young Madam-" Lu Ran wanted to give some advice, but Zhan Jiuyan spoke first, "Take her there."

Lu Ran was immediately stunned.

But Master Jiu has already spoken, even if he doesn't want to take it, it won't work.

I can only bite the bullet and say, "Yes."

Si Xia hurriedly went to the SWAT team to get equipment. Zhan Jiuyan looked at the back of her walking away and said, "Keep an eye on her. She's missing one hair. You're the only one asking."

Lu Ran's scalp was numb, "...I must take good care of the young lady."

A few minutes later, Lu Ran led Si Xia towards the entrance.

Zhan Jiuyan looked at their backs and clenched his fists uncontrollably.

His leg has been injured for many years.

However, he is very capable, decisive and ruthless in his actions. No one has ever dared to look down on him.

Not only in the Peicheng business district, but also in the entire country A, all businessmen have heard of his name and have great respect for him.

As time went by, he did not take the problem of his legs to heart.

But today, watching Si Xia's figure being swallowed up by darkness, he found that he had never been more eager to move freely than he is now.

He wanted to protect her.

On the other side, Si Xia followed Lu Ran, walking forward one step at a time.

When encountering a relatively steep slope, Lu Ran would extend his arm for her to help.

Because they had Si Xia with them, the speed of the two of them gradually slowed down.

After a while, they fell behind the large army for a short distance.

Lu Ran didn't dare to be anxious or push him. After all, his most important thing now was to ensure the safety of the young lady.

Sudden--

Buzz buzz, buzz buzz!

A cell phone vibrated.

Si Xia took out his cell phone and saw that it was a video call from Zhan Jiuyan.

She was stunned and quickly answered, "Is there any news about them?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhan Jiuyan looked coldly, "No."

"Then...how do you make a video call to me?"

Zhan Jiuyan pursed his lips and was silent for a few seconds, "I need first-hand information. Lu Zhanpeng just called me to inquire."

"oh."

It turns out that he wanted to know the whereabouts of Lu Xueyan as soon as possible.

Si Xia felt a little sour in his heart, "Then if you call Director Song, the news will be faster than mine."

Zhan Jiuyan said matter-of-factly, "They have serious things to do and don't have this spare time."

Si Xia suddenly felt unhappy, "Master Jiu, do you mean that I am very free?"

Zhan Jiuyan's expression did not change, "You are not allowed to die anyway."

"Domineering, dictatorial, powerful!" Si Xia complained for a while, but he still didn't hang up.

Lu Ran on the side heard the conversation between the two of them and couldn't help but shake his head.

Master Jiu obviously cares about the young lady and wants to know her condition at all times.

But he had to drag Lu Xueyan out.

It’s strange that the young lady doesn’t like the taste!
