Chapter 1719: Chapter 1705
Wen Zaozao apologized with a smile to that person, "I’m sorry."
Almost instantly, when Wen Zaozao turned her gaze to Zhou Ang, the smile on her face vanished instantly, "It’s already very late now. If you keep making noise here, I can’t help you."
Zhou Ang was nearly furious with Wen Zaozao. He had been holding back his anger.
"Zhou Ang, I’ve made myself very clear. I don’t want to argue with you. If you keep pestering me, I’ll call the police."
After Wen Zaozao finished speaking, she directly walked past Zhou Ang.
Zhou Ang saw that Wen Zaozao wouldn’t listen to him, and it felt like he was holding his breath in his chest, unable to breathe smoothly.
At this moment, a tall figure was walking through the neighborhood.
When Chu Ge asked Wen Zaozao to come down and buy something, he had forgotten about being blocked during the day. After hanging up the phone, he felt uneasy.
He only realized it after a while, so he immediately went downstairs to pick up Wen Zaozao, but from afar, he saw Zhou Ang and Wen Zaozao standing at the entrance of the community.
Chu Ge was a bit puzzled. Why was Zhou Ang still here so late?
He walked over out of curiosity and asked, puzzled, "Zhou Ang? What are you doing here?"
Zhou Ang saw Chu Ge coming and collected his emotions. He said to Chu Ge, "Because of what happened during the day, I was worried you guys might be in danger, so I came to take Zaozao to my place."
Wen Zaozao was confused, "What happened during the day? What happened during the day?"
She only came to her senses now and felt that there was something more to what Zhou Ang had just said.
Her puzzled eyes moved back and forth between Zhou Ang and Chu Ge, trying to find answers on their faces.
Chu Ge smiled, "It’s nothing, just a little friction with someone. Zhou Ang is probably worried they’ll seek revenge."
Zhou Ang regretted saying it just now, as Wen Zaozao was still standing here, and he didn’t want her to get involved in danger.
"Really?" Wen Zaozao was half-believing, half-doubting, "Who did you have a little conflict with?"
She stared at Chu Ge, asking, with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
Chu Ge chuckled lightly and said, "Who could I have a conflict with? Just passersby, listen to how you’re asking."
The words carried a hint of reproach, making Zhou Ang feel very uncomfortable.
Zhou Ang’s gaze lingered on Chu Ge for a few seconds, he pressed his lips, then lowered his voice as he stepped forward to speak in Chu Ge’s ear, "Right now, you’re a dangerous figure. It’s risky for Wen Zaozao to stay with you."
Chu Ge’s smile remained undiminished, "Don’t worry, I have the ability to protect her."
If he couldn’t even protect a woman, then what kind of man would he be?
"It’s not about protection! The key is whether you can protect yourself right now!"
Zhou Ang’s tone was a bit urgent.
The curve of Chu Ge’s lips deepened, and he said to Zhou Ang, "I just said, I have the ability to protect Wen Zaozao. If you don’t believe me, you can stay too. I have the ability to protect you as well."
The last sentence was exactly what Zhou Ang wanted.
"Chu Ge!" Wen Zaozao was unhappy, why should Zhou Ang go to her house! "That’s my house, I make the rules!"
She angrily stepped forward, threw the things in her hand onto Chu Ge, and said, "Since you think you’re in danger, then tonight, go stay outside!"
After speaking, she strode into the community.
Chu Ge looked speechlessly at Wen Zaozao’s departing figure, finally shaking his head helplessly.
Zhou Ang stood there awkwardly, but he was sure in his heart that Chu Ge was currently a dangerous presence. He couldn’t let Wen Zaozao be in danger because of this.
"How about Chu Ge, you come stay at my place tonight."
Zhou Ang stepped forward and suggested.
Chu Ge raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Going to your place wouldn’t be dangerous?"
"No, that’s not what I meant." Zhou Ang tried to explain.
But Chu Ge waved his hand, "Actually, you don’t need to explain. I understand, you just don’t want Wen Zaozao in danger."
Seeing that Chu Ge understood him, Zhou Ang felt much better.
"But have you thought about it? If I’m with you, you might also be in danger."
Chu Ge’s eyes lightly landed on him, "In my eyes, your life and Wen Zaozao’s are equal. If I can save her, I can save you too. But have you thought about it? If those people are targeting me, they’ve probably already figured out where I live."
In Zhou Ang’s heart, there was a pang. What Chu Ge said wasn’t without reason. If they had already identified Chu Ge’s residence, and tonight Chu Ge left Wen Zaozao’s place to his, wouldn’t those villains potentially find Wen Zaozao’s place, putting her in even greater danger?
If Chu Ge stayed, as he said, he might be able to protect Wen Zaozao, but if he left, wouldn’t Wen Zaozao be...
Zhou Ang shivered at the thought.
Seeing the look of shock on his face, Chu Ge smiled lightly, "I just said, I have the ability to protect Wen Zaozao. You can be assured of that."
"I’m not doubting..."
Zhou Ang sighed slightly, "Fine, since you’re confident, be careful tonight."
Chu Ge nodded.
"Zaozao doesn’t welcome me, so I’ll head back now."
Zhou Ang glanced in the direction Wen Zaozao had gone, her figure already gone from the community, and the hidden disappointment in his eyes was noticed by Chu Ge.
Chu Ge chuckled lightly, "Give Zaozao some time, she’ll come to realize."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ang suddenly understood. Chu Ge knew what had happened to Wen Zaozao, but he’d always said that it wasn’t his place to meddle in their affairs.
He also didn’t like letting Chu Ge get too involved in things between him and Wen Zaozao.
"Alright, I know. I’ll leave Zaozao in your care then."
After watching Zhou Ang leave, Chu Ge glanced at the shadows, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.
The sharpness quickly faded as he watched Zhou Ang get into a car and drive away before turning back toward the community.
As he walked, his steps unconsciously slowed down.
He frowned slightly, a bad feeling rising in his heart.
During his conversation with Zhou Ang, he had noticed someone quietly lying in wait. These people had the same aura as those he fought with earlier that day, and if his guess was right, they were likely the same group.
Chu Ge glanced down at the bag in his hand, beginning to worry about Wen Zaozao.
These people were after his life, willing to use any means to achieve their ends. What if they took advantage of the conversation with Zhou Ang to abduct Wen Zaozao to threaten him?
Thinking of this, he stopped toying with those trailing him and proceeded quickly towards the building.
The faster Chu Ge’s steps became, the quicker the steps of those following behind him...
