There were already a lot of people gathered on Ling Yiran's side. With that scream, more people gathered around her.
Gu Lichen frowned slightly. The next moment, he pulled Ling Yiran into a parked car and drove away.
The car just sped off, leaving the crowd of people who had gathered there unable to do nothing but stare. Then, they began to discuss Ling Yiran and Gu Lichen’s relationship.
After getting into the car, Ling Yiran said to Gu Lichen, "Thank you for just now. Just drop me off somewhere around here."
However, instead of stopping the car, Gu Lichen asked, "What the hell is going on?"
"Some stranger recognized me. After all, my recent case reversal became hot internet gossip because of Hao Yimeng's apology. Please stop the car. My friend’s still in the bookstore and I have to meet her later!" said Ling Yiran.
Gu Lichen pressed his thin lips together slightly and finally pulled up to the side of the road.
Ling Yiran tried to get out of the car, but Gu Lichen stopped her. "It's only 300 meters away from the bookstore's entrance. Maybe those people will catch up with you and surround you again. You might as well contact your friend and only get off once she's here."
She nodded hesitantly at that. Then, her eyes fell on Gu Lichen's hand which was still holding her arm.
Gu Lichen's fingers tightened slightly before he slowly let go. Ling Yiran took her phone out of her bag and called Qin Lianyi.
"Lianyi, I got into some trouble just now. I'm outside at the Jinhui Building in front of the bookstore, about 300 meters away. Just come over…"
Gu Lichen, who was sitting beside her, looked at the person close at hand in a daze.
