Chapter 285 Harassment Text Messages

Su Man returned to Manyuan and happened to meet Qiao Shiyan who had just returned home.

He has been coming home later and later from get off work recently and has been having a lot of social engagements.

Sometimes I go out at six in the morning and don’t come back until one or two in the morning.

It's still early tonight.

Qiao Shiyan's car slid closer, and Su Man was waiting obediently at the door. Qiao Shiyan got out of the car, looking tired, but when he saw Su Man, a smile immediately appeared on his face, "What a coincidence."

The two walked in side by side. At this time, a house behind the courtyard was lit up with a bright light, and there was also the sound of furniture being moved.

"Are there new neighbors over there? Isn't it said that the houses over there are so expensive that they haven't been sold yet?"

"It actually sold. I heard from the property management that the other party paid the full amount."

Su Man sighed: "How inhumane!"

"The only people in Haicheng who have seen such a big budget are the Xiao family. I don't know who else can match the financial resources of the Xiao family." Qiao Shiyan said.

When Su Man mentioned the Xiao family, her heart skipped a beat.

Besides the Xiao family, what other families are there in Haicheng?

There was a vague feeling of uneasiness in my heart, but it was quickly suppressed.

For the next few days, Su Man could hear the sounds of people moving in and out of the house behind.

At the same time, a very strange thing happened.

Su Man's phone frequently receives harassing text messages from unknown numbers:

[Is your married life harmonious with your husband?]

[The night is long, and you are alone in an empty room. It must be very lonely and unbearable, right? ]

…

At first Su Man felt confused.

I thought it was just some spam message with small advertisements.

After blocking him, I ignored him.

But the other party changed his number and started harassing Suman again. Moreover, the content of the text messages became more and more explicit.

It doesn't look like a viral text message sent out in bulk, but more like someone edited it word for word.

Who is so boring?

Su Man believed it was a prank, downloaded an anti-harassment software, and continued to block the other party.

But the firewall did not stop the other party.

The other party continued to send harassing text messages to Suman.

Moreover, Su Man discovered that the other party seemed to know everything about Su Man's life. Once or twice, it could be said to be a coincidence, but when it happened more than once, Su Man felt that something was wrong.

One time, when Qiao Shiyan was off work, he met Su Man at the door again. Qiao Shiyan wanted to hug Su Man, but Su Man dodged him.

Then, just as Suman stepped into the house, she received a prank text message:

[You are so distant from your husband, do you have no sex life? ]

Su Man raised her head suspiciously and subconsciously turned her head to look at the door.

Everything is as usual.

There are no strange people.

Qiao Shiyan asked her doubtfully, "What did you see?"

Su Man forced a smile: "No, I must be dazzled."

Qiao Shiyan looked outside, glanced left and right, muttered, "Is there anyone here?", and then closed the door.

Despite this, Suman was still a little uneasy.

Another time.

When Qiao Shiyan was away on a business trip, Su Man became much more unrestrained at home, wandering around in her suspender nightgown. After all, there were only Chen Ma and Dou Dou at home.

As a result, just as Suman was wearing her nightgown, holding gardening shears and a watering can, bending over in front of the flower bed to prune branches and water the flowers and trees, her phone received another harassing text message:

[The suspender nightgown is beautiful, but white doesn't suit you. You have fair skin, so rich black and enchanting red are more suitable.]

Su Man was horrified.

How does the other party know what she is wearing and what she is doing?

Suman immediately looked around vigilantly.

The other party is likely to be monitoring Su Man's every move in secret.

Not only that, the other party was so bold that he was not afraid of exposing his peeping behavior and ran to Suman to provoke her.

Doubts hung over Suman like a dark cloud. At this moment, the desire to explore overcame boredom and fear.

She replied the message for the first time: [Who are you? ]

The other party did not reply and stopped sending messages to Suman.

Someone who can always monitor her, unless she is at home.

But apart from her, Aunt Chen and a little baby Doudou, there couldn't be anyone else at home.

Or...

This person saw everything in Man Garden from a particularly tricky angle.

From where can I have a panoramic view of Man Garden?

Su Man slowly looked towards the house behind Man Garden.

This area is full of antique buildings.

The interior designs are similar, but each has its own characteristics: courtyards with several entrances and exits, winding rain corridors, and specially designed rain-viewing patios. In order to allow for clear lighting, there is no roof on top.

Buildings of different heights stand in a staggered pattern.

If the neighbors wanted to spy, they could indeed see what was happening in Manyuan from the upper floors.

Su Man looked at the mansion that had recently been occupied by someone new. Facing the window was a carved and hollowed window. Su Man stared at the window intently, as if there was a pair of eyes behind it, looking back at Su Man.

The wind blows and everything returns to normal.

The scenery behind the window remained motionless.

——There was no one there at all.

After a long time, Su Man withdrew her gaze, took the gardening tools and returned to the house.

Every time this happened, she felt that she was being too suspicious.

The person living in that house must be rich or noble, it is impossible for him to be so idle.

But a woman's intuition is very strong, and she seems to have a pair of eyes staring at her in the dark, and she can never resist the hairy feeling on her back.

If there really is such a pair of eyes hidden in the dark, they must be hidden very well.

Suman didn't tell anyone else about this.

Even Chen Ma didn't say anything.

But she was more cautious. When she was in the room, she would draw the curtains tightly and put on her coat when she left the room.

When I leave the house, I pay more attention to any suspicious passers-by.

Before there was any sign of the harassing text messages, something happened to Qiao Shiyan.

One day, Qiao Shiyan returned home with a pale face, a look of dejection that Su Man had never seen before.

When it was time for dinner, Chen Ma called him twice, but he seemed not to hear. Su Man exchanged a glance with Chen Ma, then walked over to him and called, "Shi Yan, it's time to eat. What are you thinking about so intently?"

Qiao Shiyan suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing Su Man, he forced a smile, as if trying to reassure her: "It's just that I encountered some difficulties in the lawsuit. It's okay. You guys eat first, I'll eat later."

Qiao Shiyan said this and got up and went to the study.

Although he tried his best to appear relaxed, the emptiness in his pupils when he turned around just now still frightened Su Man.

Since I met Qiao Shiyan, he has always been a gentle and modest gentleman, like a warm older brother next door. His eyes are always bright and always make people feel comfortable and at ease.

But just now, Su Man clearly saw the brokenness inside.
