Shen Zhiwei held her head in her hands. She was feeling dizzy and was submerged in her memories. She kept hearing Bo Yan's voice repeatedly in her mind, but it sounded nothing like the Bo Yan she knew in reality!Shen Zhiwei was lost in her memories until Lili's voice pulled her back to reality."Weiwei Sis, what should we do? Xiaobao has been kidnapped! Should we call the police?" Lili cried, her face stained with tears.Shen Zhiwei knew that she couldn't get Xiaobao back today. She listened to his cries as he left, feeling sorrowful and heartbroken. She said, "Xiaobao, it's all Mom's fault. I'm sorry, my son!"Shen Zhiwei hugged Lili and the two women began sobbing. Shen Zhiwei then started consoling Lili. "Don't worry, it will be fine. Nothing bad will happen to Xiaobao. Tomorrow, I'm going to bring him back," she said."But, sister, they're so fierce. Won't they hurt you and Xiaobao? Let's just call the police!" Lili said. She had never witnessed such a scene before, and was t
He couldn't enter the rooms or go up to the second floor. So he called out Weiwei's name loudly from the ground floor. "Weiwei, Weiwei, are you in there? Weiwei, I'm here to help you! Weiwei!" he shouted.Still, nobody answered him, and an eerie silence filled the space. Bo Yan was about to break down. Just where did Lu Mingyu hide her? Bo Yan shouted again, "Lu Mingyu, you jerk! Where are you keeping Weiwei? Let her go now, you maniac! Give me back my Weiwei!"In the basement, Lu Mingyu was observing Shen Zhiwei in piqued interest as she hid in the corner. When he heard Bo Yan's shouts, a cold and evil smile grew on his face. He picked up a few joss sticks and lit them up. Slowly, he walked over to an alter that was for Ren Yuxuan.He stuck the joss sticks in the incense burner. He spoke to the monochrome photograph on the wall in a gentle voice, "Xuanxuan, I've finally brought her to see you. Look at her, this is the woman who left you to die. Xuanxuan, tell me, how should we puni
A long moment passed before Shen Zhiwei said sadly, "Tell me, then. Why did we get married? Why did I marry you, Bo Yan?"Lu Mingyu looked surprised at first, but he burst into laughter almost immediately. "Shen Zhiwei, do you really want to know? Well, I'm not telling you! Go figure it out yourself!" he said.He loved it when she was overwhelmed with trepidation and fear, without any knowledge of her own past. He enjoyed seeing her in pain because he couldn't stand it when those two people were living a happy life, while he alone had to endure the insufferable past.As a result, he had taken it out on Shen Zhiwei. Currently, she seemed to have lost control of her emotions. She was laughing at one moment, burying her head in her hands the next. Sometimes, she would narrow her eyes and mumble to herself before curling up on the floor.Lu Mingyu watched her with knitted brows, his face darker than a stormy sky.Bo Yan had walked all the way around the villa without finding any trace
Lu Mingyu raised his left foot and kicked Bo Yan in the right leg. Bo Yan swayed, almost dropping to his knees, but managed to keep his balance. "We're not discussing this today, because I'm leaving with Weiwei now. I'll talk to you about Miss Ren once Weiwei is better. Lu Mingyu, please let me go now!" he told the infuriated Lu Mingyu.Looking down at Shen Zhiwei, who was still mumbling and alternating between laughing and crying, Bo Yan was burning with anxiety. He knew he had to take her to Yao Xin now, before it was too late."Bo Yan, you're not running away from me! We're all standing here in front of Xuanxuan today, and I'm going to make you pay for what you did!""Lu Mingyu, I swear on my company's name that as soon as Weiwei is stable, I'll come back here myself. It's time we put an end to this farce!" Bo Yan had a pleading look in his eyes. Had it not been for a promise, he would never have to be so humble in front of Lu Mingyu, nor did he have to put up with all the things
"What did Lu Mingyu do to her? Why is she suddenly like this?" Yao Xin asked, once the door was closed."I don't know what he did specifically. Weiwei was already like this when I found her, so I think Lu Mingyu must have said something to upset her. She has been very sensitive lately and has asked me a lot of questions. It was a painstaking effort to dodge them all!" replied Bo Yan."Is this Lu Mingyu taking revenge on you for what happened to Ren Yuxuan?""That's right. Lu Mingyu has setup a shrine for Ren Yuxuan in a room, hanging her photos all over the walls. He's infatuated with her, I'll give him that!""That's not infatuation, but a mental illness. The truth alone won't be able to persuade him. He'll have to get his head around this on his own."Shen Zhiwei slept for a very long time. She knew she had a very long dream, but she couldn't remember anything when she woke up. It felt so real and unrealistic at the same time.She opened her eyes, still feeling tired, and looke
Hearing Shen Zhiwei's description of events, Bo Yan wanted to rush over to Lu Mingyu's house and kill him right there and then. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists so tight, his knuckles turned white. The bulging blue veins on his neck made the others feel that he could lose control at any moment.Yao Xin glanced at Bo Yan and gave him a warning glance, a look that directed him to leave the room. For Shen Zhiwei's sake, Bo Yan had no choice but to do as he was told, leaving the other two alone. He knew that Yao Xin's treatment needed a quiet environment with no disturbances, so he went to wait outside.The treatment took three and a half hours. When the door finally opened, Yao Xin came out looking exhausted, Bo Yan eagerly looked past him, but was stopped by Yao Xin. "She's not ready. It'll be another 15 minutes or so before she wakes up.""Old Yao, how is she doing? Is everything all right?" Bo Yan asked eagerly.Yao Xin was displeased. "I can barely stand properly, and y
Shen Zhiwei shuddered when the waiter announced the name of the dish he was serving—"Grandma's trotters". She murmured to herself, "This dish is Yan's favorite."Both Yao Xin and Bo Yan were stunned by the comment, but they exchanged looks without disturbing her train of thoughts. Although the change in Shen Zhiwei's facial expression was almost indiscernible, Yao Xin still noticed it.Bo Yan only spoke after she had calmed down. "Weiwei, try some of this. It's a really delicious dish and my favorite, too." Bo Yan picked up a piece and put it on her plate. Tears rolled down Shen Zhiwei's cheeks as she ate it."I remember now. This was his favorite dish, and I used to eat it with him until I fell in love with it, too. But then, he stopped eating it!"Shen Zhiwei was crying nonstop, and each tear felt like a bullet hitting Bo Yan's heart. He wanted to tell her that he still loved this dish and would eat it with her from now on!But all words failed him when he opened his mouth, and
"Officers, I'm sorry for the inconvenience I've brought you. Please don't blame the person who has run me down. They're innocent and shouldn't be held responsible for what has happened. I've walked to my own death, because life no longer means anything to me. At this point, living is more insufferable than death, so I've chosen to end my life this way. Thank you for everything, and please don't punish anyone for the accident. It was my choice, and they just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. It wasn't their lucky day, but it was mine..."Lu Mingyu recognized the pretty handwriting on the letter. Indeed, it belonged to Xuanxuan. The paper had turned yellow after so many years, and there were a few tears in the creases. The letter seemed genuine, but he couldn't understand why Xuanxuan would write such a thing.Lu Mingyu flipped the paper over and over to examine it. Tears had welled up in his eyes, and he shook his head, both refusing and unable to comprehend the con
