Chapter 424 It turns out he was going to propose to her today.
Before driving to the hotel, she took out her phone and called Bo Jinyan, but no one answered.
Bo Jinyan hasn't sent her any more messages since he left this morning.
Worried that having dinner with Chen Anni would make it too late, she sent him a message saying that she might be home late tonight.
The man simply replied with a "okay" and said nothing more.
Sang Ruo glanced at the words, but ultimately turned off her phone screen and drove to the hotel.
This hotel belongs to the Anding Group and is the largest banquet hall hotel in Beijing. Many dignitaries and even celebrities choose to hold their weddings here.
Sang Ruo didn't think much of it and simply followed Chen Anni's request to arrive before eight o'clock.
When they were about a kilometer away from the hotel, Sang Ruo's phone, which was lying next to her, suddenly rang.
She glanced down and saw that it was Shen Qingzhuo calling.
Sang Ruo suddenly froze.
Why would he come looking for her at this time?
After a moment's hesitation, she finally answered the phone: "Hello..."
"Sister Xiaoruo, do you have some time later? I'd like to talk to you about something..."
Sang Ruo frowned slightly: "I don't have time. I already have a dinner appointment with Chen Anni and I'm on my way to the hotel now. I'll be there soon."
"This matter is extremely important; it concerns the truth behind your last car accident. Are you sure you don't want to come?"
Sang Ruo suddenly gripped the phone tighter.
To her utter surprise, Shen Qingzhuo wanted to talk to her about this matter.
Is he finally going to confront her completely?
Sang Ruo suddenly slowed down the car slightly, frowned, and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I've secretly investigated the car accident in Nanzhou for you and found the culprit. If it's convenient for you, come to the private room on the third floor of the Chunyuan Hotel. I'll be waiting for you there."
Spring Garden Hotel.
When Sang Ruo heard these words, she suddenly froze.
Because the address Chen Anni sent her was also the Chunyuan Hotel, but she didn't specify which private room it was.
The real culprits behind this car accident were him and Liang Yuxin, but why did he suddenly invite her to a private room on the third floor under such a pretext? What exactly did he want to do?
Should I confront her in person and explain my crimes?
The moment these thoughts surfaced in her mind, Sang Ruo's expression suddenly turned gloomy.
Undeniably, Shen Qingzhuo did successfully pique her curiosity.
She preferred the private room on the third floor to having dinner with Chen Anni.
After a moment's thought, she finally replied, "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, she drove quickly to the entrance of the Spring Garden Hotel.
As she got out of the car, she immediately saw the arched flower gate at the entrance.
Is someone holding a wedding here?
She glanced down at the time; there were still fifteen minutes until eight o'clock.
She sent Chen Anni a text message saying that she was going to the third floor and would arrive on the first floor at eight o'clock sharp.
Then, she put her phone in her pocket and strode towards the main entrance.
Zhang Ye happened to see her as she entered the room.
He followed her inside, only to see Sang Ruo enter the elevator directly, which eventually stopped on the third floor.
Zhang Ye felt something was wrong the more he looked. The proposal banquet was held on the first floor, so what was she doing on the third floor?
Zhang Ye quickly turned around and walked towards the proposal banquet venue.
At this moment, on the third floor.
When Sang Ruo pushed open the door and entered the private room, it was empty.
The bathroom door was closed from the inside. Thinking Shen Qingzhuo was inside, she called out twice in that direction, "Shen Qingzhuo, Shen Qingzhuo..."
There was no response from inside...
She glanced around again and suddenly felt that something was not right.
Just as I was about to leave, the bathroom door was opened from the inside.
The people who came out were not Shen Qingzhuo, but two men in black.
When Sang Ruo saw them striding closer, a look of fear appeared in her eyes.
Because they were all holding hemp ropes, they were approaching her step by step.
Sang Ruo's first reaction was to run away, so she turned around and ran towards the gate.
Just as I reached for the doorknob, I discovered that the door had been closed from the outside, and there was no way to open it from the inside.
Sang Ruo suddenly turned around and looked behind her.
The two men in black had already come up behind her. One of them tied the rope he was holding directly around her body and then tied a tight knot, instantly immobilizing her.
Who are you? What do you want?
"Did Shen Qingzhuo tell you to do this?"
"Where is he? Tell him to get out here right now!"
...
No matter what she said, the two men in front of her ignored her.
Sang Ruo was completely bound by them and then tied to a chair.
She was about to speak again when one of the men suddenly took a rag and stuffed it directly into her mouth, making it impossible for her to make any sound.
Sang Ruo's heart leaped into her throat, and an unprecedented sense of unease welled up within her.
The two men in black carried two cans of gasoline from the corner and suddenly started pouring them onto the ground.
The strong, pungent smell of gasoline instantly filled her nostrils, and she was so shocked that her pupils widened.
She made whimpering sounds, but the two people in front of her seemed not to hear her and continued with their work.
To everyone's surprise, Shen Qingzhuo attacked her again, and this time he set her on fire!
After dealing with everything, the man in black did not light the fire, but walked out directly.
When the door opened, Sang Ruo immediately saw the man standing at the door.
It was none other than Shen Qingzhuo.
Sang Ruo's upper eyelashes fluttered wildly, her eyes filled with shock.
After the man walked in, he closed the door behind him.
"Bang--"
The loud slam of the door echoed in almost every corner around.
He not only closed the door, but also locked it from the inside.
With a gentle smile on his face, Shen Qingzhuo approached her step by step.
He held a metal lighter in his hand, repeatedly opening and closing it...
Every time she opened it, Sang Ruo felt as if she had died, and every cell in her body was on edge.
Shen Qingzhuo walked up to her, suddenly placed his hands on the armrests of the chair, and looked down at her: "Sister Ruo, are you scared?"
Sang Ru shook her head frantically, making continuous whimpering sounds.
"Do you know what day it is today?" Shen Qingzhuo suddenly raised a hand, pinched her chin, and said bluntly, "Today is the day Bo Jinyan proposes to you. In five minutes, he will propose to you downstairs. I just went there and saw it. The decorations are so gorgeous, it's like a wedding venue..."
"If the proposal is this grand, how extravagant will your actual wedding be?"
Surprise flashed across Sang Ruo's pupils, her eyes filled with disbelief.
