Chapter 269 I'll Help You
Meng Anran took out a bottle of water from her bag and threw it to Lu Yi.
He took it, his fingers trembling slightly as he unscrewed the cap, but he still pretended to be elegant and took small sips.
"I don't care whether you live or die." Meng Anran sat down next to him, ignoring the dirty environment. "I just want to know who planned all this."
Lu Yi's expression was indifferent, as if he no longer had the energy to deal with her. "You already have the answer in your heart, so why bother asking me?"
"Is it Lu Heng?" Meng Anran asked.
Lu Yi looked at her in disbelief. She met his gaze and continued, "The hormones in your body came from the sedative he gave you, right?"
Lu Yi's eyes froze for a few seconds, then he suddenly smiled. "Your way of trying to get answers is quite unique. You pretend to be clueless when you know the truth?"
"So..." Meng Anran's eyes suddenly turned serious, "You and Lu Heng already knew that Bai Yujin drugged you?"
"I know." Lu Yi leaned lazily against the wall and admitted it readily.
"When did you find out?"
"You weren't picky about food when you were little, but one day you suddenly lost your appetite. When Lu Heng went to the kitchen to check on the hygiene and ingredients, he saw the chef adding something to the food. So he simply replaced all the chefs who were responsible for your meals."
Lu Yi rubbed his silver hair and laughed sarcastically, "It was then that I realized where my illness came from."
Meng Anran's eyes were hot and she clenched her teeth to prevent herself from breaking down again.
No wonder her name was written in the experimental subject column, but she did not show any abnormal symptoms. It turned out that Lu Heng protected her secretly again.
"Were you kidnapped by Bai Yujin some time ago, or did you run away on your own?" she asked.
"Why would I run?" Lu Yi smiled casually, with a twisted look in his voice. "Lu Heng wants to send me to a mental hospital. What a great place it is. There are guards on duty 24 hours a day, and the fences are all electric fences. People inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in."
If Lu Yi had been admitted to a mental hospital at that time, he would not have been kidnapped and perhaps would not have suffered such inhuman torture.
Meng Anran suddenly understood that although Lu Heng treated her cruelly, he was actually protecting his brother.
Just like this time, he would rather bear the blame than protect her.
Her heart suddenly clenched into a ball, and Meng Anran could hardly breathe. Her misunderstanding of Lu Heng was too deep...
Silence spread in the darkness.
After a long time, Meng Anran stood up, turned around and stretched out her hand to him: "Come with me."
Lu Yi was stunned, his silver eyelashes trembling slightly, "Do you know what you are saying?"
"I know." She said calmly, but even Qin Mu and Kenai stared at her in disbelief.
"Ha!" Lu Yi suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter echoing in the empty basement, "Racing cars, jumping into the river, and countless 'little jokes'... Sister, you never learn your lesson."
"I remember." Meng Anran didn't flinch, and held out her hand even closer to him. "Do you want to stay in the abyss and fend for yourself? Live on sedatives for the rest of your life?"
Lu Yi's expression froze. He stared at the fair and delicate hand, which he had wanted to touch so many times but dared not.
Now, she actually reached out to him.
Meng Anran continued, "You showed up at the party because you knew Bai Yujin's plan and wanted to warn me. You hid here because you were afraid of being used as a knife to stab me again. You saved me once, and I'll help you."
Lu Yi's chest heaved violently, like a drowning man finally emerging from the water. He lowered his head, his silver hair obscuring his expression. "...Get lost."
The voice no longer had the fierceness it once had.
No one could change what Meng Anran had decided. She ignored Lu Yi's refusal and simply grabbed his wrist and pulled him up.
Her tone was stronger than her actions: "I said, your life is mine. I have the final say on how you live."
Lu Yi followed Meng Anran's steps and left the basement. In the dim light, no one noticed that his eyes were always fixed on that jade hand. There was a rare softness hidden in his charming eyes.
It's like a child with an uncertain mind who gets the stuffed doll he has longed for.
There were no special problems on the way, and Kenai sent them to Lihuayuan.
Meng Anran entered the password and turned on the light after entering the door.
Lu Yi followed her closely and stepped into the house that he had wanted to spy on for a long time. When several beams of warm yellow light filled the entire space, he was obviously stunned.
He subconsciously glanced at Meng Anran, as if he didn't expect her to take such detailed care of his eyes.
But Meng Anran didn't look at him. She just lowered her head and took out a new pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and threw them on the ground, "Change your shoes."
Lu Yi didn't dare to say a word. He changed his shoes silently and then followed her wherever she went.
Meng Anran entered the guest room on the first floor, opened the wardrobe, rummaged through Qin Mu's clothes and threw them on the bed. She then took out a clean towel and toothbrush and pointed to the bathroom: "Take a shower and put on Qin Mu's clothes first. I'll send someone to bring new clothes over later."
"An Ran." Lu Heng suddenly grabbed Meng An Ran who was about to leave. His silver hair rippled with gold under the orange light. "You can send me to a mental hospital."
There is no need to force yourself to forget the hurt you have suffered, suppress the hatred in your heart, and leave him here.
Meng Anran gently pushed his hand away, frowning slightly, "Lu Yi, you're disgusting when you're being sentimental. Be a little more normal. I'm not pitying you."
Lu Yi suddenly smiled, as if relieved, picked up his clothes and towel and went into the bathroom, leaving only one sentence: "Sister has a conscience."
Meng Anran snorted softly, closed the door of the guest room, and went back to the living room to sit down.
"An Xiaoran, are you really planning to let Lu Yi live here?" Qin Mu poured her a cup of hot tea and asked her to warm her cold hands.
"Yeah." Meng Anran lowered her head and sipped the hot tea. To be honest, she was a little scared too.
After all, Lu Yi was kidnapped by Bai Yujin and was given a sedative immediately after returning. It must be that Bai Yujin gave him drugs again while he was kidnapped.
It is not clear how long the effect of the sedative will last. If Lu Yi suddenly falls ill, no one will be able to control him.
From Meng Anran's micro-expressions, Kenai understood her current concerns and spoke at the right time: "Since Lu Heng and Lu Yi already knew that Bai Yujin had been drugging Lu Yi, then Lu Yi should also have sedatives on him."
Lu Heng was aware of Lu Yi's situation, and it was impossible for him not to prepare some spare medicine for Lu Yi before flying to Country A.
Just as Kenai finished speaking, the sound of a car engine suddenly came from outside.
The dark green Bentley that they were very familiar with slowly drove into the courtyard and stopped in front of the villa.
The driver's door was pushed open, and the man who got out of the car was wearing a neatly-made suit, with short, slightly curly shoulder-length hair tied into a small braid - it was Xiang Fu.
