Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 300 - 194, I will accompany you to fulfill all your wishes (2 more 2)_3
Until now, Shi Nian had never experienced the feeling of being served by professional servants. She stuck out her tongue and sincerely said to Xia Zuo, "Thank you."
The car started, and Shi Nian asked softly, "Where are we going?"
Huangfu Huazhang reached out to her: "Can I borrow your phone?"
"Huh?" Shi Nian was taken aback. She thought, he has a VERTU worth over 600,000, why would he need to borrow her phone?
He shrugged: "My phone doesn’t go online."
Shi Nian then handed her phone over to him.
He skillfully went online to check maps, then pinpointed several locations and instructed the driver. Once they arrived, Shi Nian realized it was a repair shop. Huangfu Huazhang only let Xia Zuo go down to inquire.
The people at the repair shop were stunned to see a black Rolls-Royce parked outside, as if Xia Zuo was explaining that they don’t work on Rolls-Royces. Shi Nian only faintly heard Xia Zuo ask if they could spray blue paint for a BMW. Then a worker, looking alarmed, cautiously stared at Xia Zuo and seriously asked if they really intended to spray the black Rolls-Royce outside with the blue paint for a BMW, and whether it was really not a joke.
Shi Nian couldn’t help but smile, but inwardly she understood Huangfu Huazhang’s intention and couldn’t help but secretly admire how clever he was.
—Rosa changed the car paint color just to match Xiang Yuan’s, and since Xiang Yuan drives a dark blue BMW, the paint Rosa chose must have also been specifically requested to be BMW’s blue paint, exactly the same.
So by asking about the paint issue like this, Xia Zuo could find the repair shop where Rosa had her car worked on that day, which was more discreet and secure than directly asking if the shop had serviced a Miyada, avoiding alerting anyone.
Shi Nian took a deep breath and turned to Huangfu Huazhang: "Why didn’t I think of looking into repair shops?"
Rosa’s car went through a repair shop, so naturally, the workers there might have had a chance to come into contact with the car. Also, to calmly draw a clown’s smiling face on the windshield, there needed to be sufficient time and safety. So when the car was parked by the roadside, there was actually no chance for anyone to do it continuously without being noticed by passersby.
Huangfu Huazhang smiled faintly: "It’s nothing, after all, you’re a woman. Women often have no interest in repair shops, so when you make connections, you often overlook such places. But we men are different."
He tilted his head to look over: "It’s just unfortunate that even with so many male detectives, the police also overlooked the repair shop."
.
After inquiring a few repair shops in this manner, they finally narrowed it down to three that could spray blue paint for a BMW. Huangfu Huazhang marked the locations of the three shops on a map, then pointed to one of them, "It’s this one called ’Rainbow’."
Shi Nian leaned over to look at the map and nodded.
Among the three shops, one was far out in the suburbs, another was completely outside Rosa’s work and life radius. And this one called "Rainbow" happened to be on the route between Rosa’s home and Huatai Hall. From a habitual thinking perspective, this would definitely be the first choice.
The Rolls-Royce turned around to head back to "Rainbow", Shi Nian admired Huangfu Huazhang’s meticulous thinking and couldn’t help but mischievously smile: "Actually, there’s no need to go through all this trouble, I could just call and ask Rosa where she got her car fixed. It’s not really a secret, she wouldn’t hide it from me."
At her words, the car suddenly went silent.
Xia Zuo knew he shouldn’t turn back to look at this time, but he couldn’t help worrying about Mr., so he quietly turned his head while the car was turning.
Indeed, Mr.’s expression was a bit awkward, with lips tightly pressed together.
Xia Zuo could only quietly sigh.
Mr. had quietly done so much for this woman, only for her to dismiss it all with a single sentence.
.
As a matter of fact, Shi Nian naturally noticed Xia Zuo’s glance.
She smiled awkwardly, turning her head to look at Huangfu Huazhang’s tense profile: "But still, thank you very much. Your time is so precious, yet you spend it with me doing something like this. I’m really sorry."
Huangfu Huazhang gazed over: "Being a journalist, especially one like you who tracks criminal cases, is inherently a high-risk occupation. In the past, you had 24-hour police protection, which was fine. From now on, I’ll be by your side, accompanying you to seek the truth."
Although there was still a hint of that previous awkwardness on his face, his eyes were astonishingly bright and firmly focused on her. It was a seriousness she couldn’t ignore.
"Sir... Your time is so precious, how can you accompany me to do things?"
He chuckled lightly: "A well-managed company operates healthily not through the efforts of a single leader. It relies on a scientific management mechanism, with each team member performing their respective duties. So I don’t personally handle the company’s operations, and I have plenty of free time. I’ve told you before that in the past, I spent that time reading, but now—those times have finally found someone they ought to be entrusted to."
He turned to gaze intently at her: "When I say I want to pursue you, I’m not just asking for your love. I want to give you all my time, to accompany you, protect you, assist you. The truth you seek is the gift I want to lay before you."
Shi Nian was stunned, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts, unable to sort them out.
But he smiled, took her wrist: "Come on, let’s go find the person who drew the clown."
.
Xia Zuo wanted to get out and pave the way first, but was stopped by Huangfu Huazhang.
He got out of the car himself, came around to open the door for Shi Nian, then took her wrist, his gaze slowly falling onto Xia Zuo’s worried face.
"Now is the time for just the two of us. I don’t need you to protect, I can protect her."
Although Xia Zuo wasn’t reassured, he could only remain seated in the car.
Shi Nian followed Huangfu Huazhang into the repair shop and only then did she notice his slight instability in his leg. She quickly asked in a soft voice, "Sir, your leg..."
He looked over, his tall figure conveniently shading her from the glaring sunlight: "It’s nothing, I was a bit tired after running a few steps that day. Give it a few days rest and it’ll be fine."
Shi Nian felt a stir in her heart: "When did you run?"
With his character, he would never run for anyone or anything.
