Chapter 468: Sick Leave
Zhou Ling's footsteps paused, and he subconsciously responded with a smile: "We are looking for Wen Zhuo, Editor-in-Chief Wen." ”
The security guard looked stunned, and then said, "You need to register first." "He was the only one on duty after work, because he was not at the door but came to patrol, so Zhou Ling and Rong Zheng came in.
Hearing the security guard say that he wanted to register, Rong Zheng next to him looked puzzled, after all, they had all walked in for a while. His gaze turned to Zhou Ling, and Zhou Ling shrugged helplessly.
The last time she came here, Wen Zhuo brought her in, so naturally she didn't need to register or anything like that, but this time she was a stranger, and she brought an even stranger Rong Zheng, so she naturally needed to register.
But this is someone else's territory, so she naturally has to cooperate. So she didn't drag on for too long, and cooperated to keep up with the security guards.
The two followed the security guard back to the gate of the magazine, and after registering with the security guard, they re-entered the magazine, this time no one stopped them, and the two arrived outside Wen Zhuo's office smoothly.
Zhou Ling saw a familiar face, Wen Zhuo's assistant Xiao Wang, although he had only met once, but Zhou Ling had a very deep impression of this assistant, after all, this assistant's thoughts about Wen Zhuo, she could see it clearly, and Xiao Wang didn't have any intention to hide it before.
At the same time, Xiao Wang also saw Zhou Ling with sharp eyes, and quickly put on a smiling face and walked towards Zhou Ling.
"Isn't this Miss Zhou?" Xiao Wang's delicate face pulled out a smile that was not very sincere, and his eyes also looked at Zhou Ling, and then turned his gaze to Rong Zheng next to Zhou Ling, "Who is this?"
Xiao Wang's gaze was not friendly, and Zhou Ling's originally normal and gentle attitude suddenly became cold. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and did not answer Xiao Wang's question, but asked directly, "Is Editor-in-Chief Wen here?"
Wen Zhuo's office door was closed, and it was difficult for her to tell from the outside whether Wen Zhuo was in the magazine or not. And now the only person she can ask is Xiao Wang in front of her, after all, they have walked all the way from the gate, and they really haven't seen anyone still in this magazine.
Being able to see Xiao Wang, Zhou Ling was a little strange.
And Xiao Wang didn't get a response from Zhou Ling, but he only heard such a question, and his face, which was already a little unsightly, immediately became a little ugly.
She had long heard about Wen Zhuo and Zhou Ling's breakup, and now that Zhou Ling came here to ask about Wen Zhuo, she was naturally vigilant. After all, she was bound to win Wen Zhuo. Although Wen Zhuo did not respond to her now, her courtship to Wen Zhuo never stopped.
Zhou Ling naturally noticed a slight change in Xiao Wang's expression, and quickly guessed what Xiao Wang was thinking, she waved her hand helplessly, and then glanced at Rong Zheng next to her, who had an ancient face, and whispered to Xiao Wang: "I forgot to introduce, this is my boyfriend." ”
Xiao Wang's originally vigilant expression changed almost immediately after hearing Zhou Ling's words. even looked at Rong Zheng with a little joy.
Zhou Ling was a little strange, but soon she dissipated the strange feeling in her heart, and asked again, "Is Wen Zhuo still in the magazine?"
Hearing her question, Xiao Wang came back to his senses, looked at Zhou Ling and said, "The editor-in-chief has taken a leave of absence and didn't come to the magazine today." ”
Hearing Xiao Wang's words, Zhou Ling felt a sigh in his heart, and a bad premonition came to his face. At the same time, her face sank undisguisedly.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhou Ling's sudden expression, and the Rong Zheng beside her was still similar to her reaction, Xiao Wang looked strange, "Is there something wrong?"
Hearing this, Zhou Ling shook his head and said, "It's okay, you continue to be busy, let's go first." After she finished speaking, she walked outside, and Rong Zheng naturally immediately followed Zhou Ling's footsteps.
As soon as the two left, Xiao Wang was left alone in the magazine, she looked at the back of the two leaving, and her suspicious gaze did not retract for a long time, and then, as if she remembered something, she took her mobile phone and dialed a call.
Zhou Ling and Rong Zheng, who left, didn't know what was going on, and Zhou Ling was sitting in the car rubbing his forehead at this time.
"It seems that we can only go to his house to find him. Zhou Ling didn't fully believe the news she got from Xiao Wang, but even if she didn't believe it, she had no other way, after all, she didn't have a clue now.
As soon as Rong Zheng stepped on the accelerator, the car went to Wen Zhuo's house like an arrow from the string. He was silent and didn't speak, even after hearing Zhou Ling's sigh, he just stared ahead and drove intently.
When the car was extremely quiet, Rong Zheng suddenly said, "Don't worry, it's okay." Although he was comforting Zhou Ling, he couldn't think calmly now, so his comfort didn't have any effect.
But Zhou Ling also felt Rong Zheng's intentions, and she even nodded and muttered in a low voice: "I hope it's okay." ”
At this time, she even hoped that Wen Zhuo's sick leave was true, even if Wen Zhuo was sick, it would be better than some accident. After all, Song Minghao's previous stabbing has not passed, and now that Wen Zhuo has lost contact for no reason, it is difficult for her not to think about it.
When Rong Zheng heard Zhou Ling's words, he didn't say anything more, but silently sped up the car.
The time passed slowly in extreme torment, and Zhou Ling only felt as if it had been a long time before the car stopped, and it was parked in the garage of the community where Wen Zhuo lived.
The two didn't speak on the way from the garage to the elevator, as if this kind of silence could make things better, until they entered the elevator, Zhou Ling asked softly, "What if he is not at home?"
In fact, she shouldn't ask Rong Zheng this kind of question, after all, she has always been the one who makes the decision in this situation, and if it were her in the past, she would also make a decision at this time very clearly.
But now she was hesitant.
But even if they reported their disappearance, it wasn't enough, but if they didn't call the police, they wouldn't be able to find Wen Zhuo.
For some reason, Zhou Ling already had a premonition in his heart that they might not be able to see Wen Zhuo here.
After Rong Zheng heard Zhou Ling's question, he was subconsciously stunned for a moment, he glanced sideways at Zhou Ling, and saw that Zhou Ling didn't even turn his head, just looked at the button of the elevator in front of him and asked, and knew that Zhou Ling had thought of something, so he said softly: "It'll be fine." ”
In fact, even he himself doesn't believe it, but he still says it.
