Chapter 18 Pei Yanchuan, want to make a bet?
Hearing the sound, Li Xuanmeng stopped touching her neck.
Memories before the coma suddenly came back.
By the way, she was knocked unconscious and brought here by Pei Yanchuan's assistant.
Following the source of the sound, Li Xuanmeng found herself lying on the floor in a room. It looked like a guest room. The curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out all the light. Only the night light at the head of the bed emitted a dim glow.
There was a man sitting at a table not far away.
The man was dressed in a neat suit, his entire face shrouded in shadow. He sat with his long legs crossed in a casual posture. His bony fingers rested casually on his legs, tapping intermittently. His black metal watch reflected the cold light under the night light.
Qi Lou stood next to the man with a gentle and polite smile on his face.
"I'm sorry to bring you here in this way. Please forgive me."
Li Xuanmeng curled the corners of her mouth coldly: "...Heh."
Forgiveness? How can you say that?
No one likes this way of meeting.
Even though Li Xuanmeng had conquered many yanderes, she had never encountered such a thing.
Who would knock someone out and kidnap them after only meeting them once?
Is Pei Yanchuan sick?
No, this person is sick.
Li Xuanmeng gritted her teeth, resisting the urge to curse and speaking: "What on earth do you want to do? Why did you bring me here?"
And not only did he bring it, but he also had the password. There was a bed next to it, so why did he throw it on the floor?! It was cold and hard!
Pei Yanchuan, you deserve not to be loved!
Li Xuanmeng was so angry that she didn't even want to pursue the strategy anymore.
Qi Lou glanced at the silent man next to him, then smiled and comforted the angry Li Xuanmeng.
"Ms. Li, calm down first. We will compensate you and bring you here. We just thought this environment might be more conducive to our conversation. After all, no one knows you are here."
Li Xuanmeng really didn't understand what Qi Lou said.
What to talk about?
She hadn't started anything.
"I remember I didn't do anything, right? I really don't know what you want me to say."
The next second, Qi Lou suddenly interrupted her——
"Ms. Li, are you sure you didn't do anything? But we found out that Dr. Yu Si's car was hit from the rear and it seems to be related to you."
"Not only that, when you were buying coffee at a coffee shop, you deliberately approached Miss Yang Cici under the pretext that you couldn't scan the code. You must have done all of this, right?"
Li Xuanmeng: "..."
system:【……】
[Host, I told you to be careful and not play tricks.]
Li Xuanmeng: [Don't bring it up after the fact, you didn't even remind me.]
Having said that, Li Xuanmeng's back was already covered in cold sweat and his mind was blank.
She really didn't expect that the target of this attack would be so sharp.
Why?
Li Xuanmeng's mind was full of whys.
Why did Pei Yanchuan investigate her so thoroughly?
Could it be that this person suffers from paranoia? Does he think anyone approaching him is out to murder him?
But it’s not on the medical record that Yu Si gave me.
Thinking of the other person's symptoms, Li Xuanmeng was stunned and slowly clenched his fists.
She suddenly looked up at the man sitting there.
"You are Pei Yanchuan, right?"
Qi Lou was stunned and subconsciously looked to the side.
The man just raised his hand slightly.
Qi Lou immediately met him, lowered his head and took a step back.
Pei Yanchuan's eyebrows were stern, and he looked down at the woman on the ground with a cold voice.
"You have two choices. Either you leave forever on your own initiative, or I let you leave."
He didn't want to know what the other person wanted to do, nor did he care how the other person discovered his illness.
He had only one goal - to get this woman away from Yang Cici.
Let this time bomb disappear completely.
Hearing the man's undisguised threat, Li Xuanmeng sneered.
"Why? Why should I leave? You're not worried, are you? Or... let me guess what you're worried about?"
Qi Lou was startled and realized what the other party was about to say. He opened his mouth to stop him, but it was too late.
I only heard the woman say word by word:
"You're worried that I'll tell Yang Cici your true identity, right?"
"Pei Yanchuan, do you think I don't know? You and Yang Cici were both using fake identities together!"
As soon as the words came out, the room fell into silence, and even the sound of a pin drop was particularly clear.
Qi Lou stood there holding his breath, not daring to look at the man next to him who was emitting a sinister aura.
“Crack—”
The armrest of the sandalwood chair was cracked by someone. The veins on the back of the man's hand bulged, and his fingertips turned bluish-white. His face in the shadows became increasingly gloomy, and a dangerous aura continued to spread in the room.
Qi Lou felt a little more respect for Li Xuanmeng.
I can't criticize him, he is a true warrior.
It's really rare to see someone dare to speak to Pei Yanchuan like this.
Just as I was sighing, the man's cold voice, suppressed with anger, suddenly rang in my ears.
"Qi Lou, kill her."
Qi Lou’s eyelids twitched: “…”
Master, this is not a foreign country!
Li Xuanmeng's face turned pale when he heard this.
She wasn't stupid enough to think Pei Yanchuan was joking.
Moreover, there are not so many rules in the world of novels. The police are just decorations. Especially for the Pei family, killing people is not a difficult task.
Damn, this strategy is really troublesome!
Li Xuanmeng cursed inwardly.
She mustered up her courage and suppressed her fear and sneered.
"Pei Yanchuan, want to make a bet? Even if I don't tell you, Yang Cici will still break up with you in the end."
“…”
The oppressive atmosphere around them grew deeper, and every inch of air seemed to carry icy blades.
In the darkness, Li Xuanmeng could feel the man staring at her.
That gaze was as dangerous and cold as a poisonous snake, like a ferocious beast about to pounce.
She swallowed hard and continued speaking:
"Do you think it's really fun to be in a relationship like this? Can you really pretend forever? Once Yang Cici knows your true face, she will only hate you even more and be even more afraid of you. Will you treat her the same way then?"
"When that day really comes, seeing her panic and afraid of you, will you be satisfied? Pei Yanchuan, you are only destroying her! You will turn her into a lunatic like you!"
In the dim room, Li Xuanmeng's voice kept echoing, and every word hit Pei Yanchuan's eardrum heavily.
The truth that he had been trying so hard to avoid was revealed in such a bloody way.
Pei Yanchuan's breathing stagnated, his pupils suddenly shrank, he clenched his fists, and pinched his palms tightly with his fingertips, not noticing until blood oozes out.
He had already fallen into the scene imagined by Li Xuanmeng.
The girl knelt on the ground, her previously beautiful and pure brown eyes now filled with fear and terror.
She supported herself on the ground with her hands, looked at him in panic, and cried for him not to come over.
No……
He doesn't want this...
He would never let this happen!
Pei Yanchuan stood up suddenly, his whole body filled with a morbid and manic aura, which scared Qi Lou who was standing next to him.
He worriedly said, "Master..."
The next second, the man walked towards Li Xuanmeng, squatted down and grabbed her neck without hesitation.
