Chapter 214 You Will Shield Me

Gu Tingshen stood silently where he was, and my heart thumped wildly. If Gu Tingshen insisted on taking Cheng Yu away, it would be in accordance with procedural regulations.

But I still had to try. I knew Gu Tingshen was not one to easily compromise, and the only thing I could leverage was myself.

"You don't trust me?" I challenged Gu Tingshen.

He furrowed his brows, his voice deepening by two degrees, "I know the family tragedies of the past have changed you a lot, but I hope you can discern right from wrong."

Hearing his words, I knew that Gu Tingshen still believed I was intentionally shielding Cheng Yu.

Having narrowly escaped death and dealing with once familiar faces, I felt a choking sensation in my chest, "Director Gu, if you don't trust me, then just take me too. The only person who had contact with those inside today, that was me."

He lifted his gaze to look at me. I didn't back down an inch, staring straight back at him; I was betting he wouldn't arrest me.
