He Zhichu's warm, slender fingers were wrapped firmly around Gu Nianzhi's delicate hand.
His expression was cold and ruthless, but his bright almond eyes looked at Gu Nianzhi with concern.
Gu Nianzhi looked towards Yin Shixiong. She tried to free herself from He Zhichu's grasp, but he reflexively tightened his hold on her.
Just then, a policeman came over and asked Yin Shixiong to follow him. "Are you the owner of the car? The sergeant has a few questions for you."
Yin Shixiong put an arm around Gu Nianzhi's shoulder, and looked at He Zhichu. "Professor He, I'm leaving Nianzhi in your care for now. I'll pick her up from your office once I've taken care of this."
He Zhichu nodded. "Okay, no problem. I was going to discuss her case with my assistants anyway. You should join the discussion when you come over." He tightened his grip on Gu Nianzhi's hand.
Yin Shixiong let go of Gu Nianzhi. "Go, I'll look for you later."
