Chapter 113 Chapter 113 Being Hit
The familiar cell phone ringtone rang over and over again.
Shi Beichuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, praying in his heart that Li Meng would answer the phone quickly.
But when he appeared at Li Meng's door, the phone still didn't connect.
Shi Beichuan looked at the closed door in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and pressed the doorbell.
At this time, Li Meng was already lying on the bed. She curled up her body and hid herself in the quilt, as if she was dominated by endless space.
The moment she heard the doorbell, her body trembled uncontrollably and her fingers clenched the corner of the quilt tightly.
It was as if she was back to that night many years ago. She had already gone to bed at that time. She was the only one in the huge villa. Her mother and stepfather had gone on a trip abroad. She was lying in bed and heard a loud knock on the door and Li Cheng's impatient shouting. She had no choice but to get up and open the door.
The moment the door opened, she also opened the door to hell.
No one helped her, even if she shouted at the top of her lungs.
That night became a nightmare that would haunt her for the rest of her life.
The terrible doorbell rang again, one after another, like a death warrant.
Li Meng gritted her teeth. She knew very well that she had to break through this fear, otherwise she would live under Li Cheng's shadow all her life and would always be in pain.
Trying hard to suppress the fear in her heart, Li Meng slowly got out of bed.
Each step she took was difficult, yet steady, until she mustered up the courage to stand at the door.
She saw a familiar face in the cat's eye.
Not Li Cheng!
Li Meng didn't open the door. She just stood there quietly and said to Shi Beichuan outside through the door: "I'm already asleep, you can go back!"
"Li Meng!"
Hearing the hoarse voice, Shi Beichuan was delighted and called Li Meng by her full name.
"It's me! Shi Beichuan, Li Meng, open the door."
"I know it's you. Go back! It's getting late and you have to work tomorrow." No matter what, she didn't want Shi Beichuan to see her unbearable and cowardly state, so she could only stop him outside the door.
Shi Beichuan was not willing to give up!
He drove here late at night and would not leave until he saw Li Meng.
"Li Meng, open the door! Just let me see you. After seeing you, I will leave soon and won't stay for a moment longer."
"I don't have anything to see! Besides, it's not convenient to meet at night." She deliberately drew a line between herself and him, as if the previous lovemaking was all an illusion, like a moon in the water or a flower in the mirror.
Shi Beichuan's expression changed instantly when he heard that, and his slightly narrowed eyes showed a cold look. Was she eager to draw a clear line between herself and him?
Li Meng, you are really great!
Even though he was angry, he still worried about her. "With our relationship, why wouldn't it be inconvenient for us to meet? Li Meng, if you don't open the door tonight, I won't leave and will just wait at your door."
As long as he stays here, even if Li Cheng comes, he will have to get past him first.
"Shi Beichuan!"
Li Meng frowned in distress. She didn't want Shi Beichuan to get involved. That was her most unbearable past.
How could I expose such a past in front of him!
Li Meng gritted her teeth and said against her will, "Shi Beichuan, get out of here right now! I was just playing with you before, don't really think I'm attracted to you."
Shi Beichuan's face was extremely gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Alright! I'm meddling in your business! Li Meng, if I ask about your affairs again in the future, I will punish you by not touching a woman for the rest of my life!"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Li Meng lay on the cat's eye, and the familiar figure quickly disappeared from her sight.
Before she knew it, tears had already covered her face.
That night, Li Meng did not fall asleep for a moment. She curled up in the quilt with her eyes wide open, but the light there was out. It was like dead silence, and she could not catch any sign of life.
1900 Club.
In a dimly lit and ambiguous private room, Li Cheng and a few friends were having a great time drinking.
Since he had just returned to China, several of his former friends planned to hold a welcoming banquet for him so that everyone could get together and strengthen their relationships.
"Yes, Acheng, what does your stepsister feel like? In the past few years when you were away, Li Meng was quite arrogant. Apart from playing with Shen Qinghuan, she never hangs out with us."
Li Cheng picked up the wine glass and swung it, smiling obscenely and lasciviously, "That taste... I'm not saying it, that taste is really strong! Like a hot pepper, thank goodness I'm quite strong."
"Brother Cheng, when will you let us play with you?"
"Yeah! Brother Cheng, when will you let us have a taste of that girl?"
Listening to the compliments from his friends, Li Cheng felt very proud. Unconsciously, he had already regarded Li Meng as his private property. "Why are you so anxious? I just came back, I have to find a suitable opportunity."
Those people looked at each other and laughed obscenely.
"Brother Cheng, this glass of wine is for you. Now that you're back, we finally have a backbone!"
Li Cheng has always liked being surrounded and praised by others. These past few years abroad were almost driving him crazy. Fortunately, from now on, he doesn’t have to go back to that hellhole!
"My phone's ringing. I'm going to go out and answer it. You guys go ahead and have fun! Just order whatever you want to drink. All expenses for tonight will be charged to me."
He greeted everyone and hurried out of the private room with his cell phone.
Li Cheng found a quiet place to stop, "Hello? Who is this?"
"Shi Beichuan!"
On the other end of the phone, Shi Beichuan calmly gave his name.
Li Cheng was stunned for a moment, wondering why Shi Beichuan would take the initiative to call him! But he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just said cheerfully, "It's Brother Chuan. I just returned to China and haven't made time to invite Brother Chuan to dinner. How about tomorrow night? I wonder what Brother Chuan thinks?"
Shi Beichuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashing with a cold light, "Why do we have to have dinner tomorrow night? Can't we have it tonight?"
"Well, if you really want to eat tonight, that's fine! I'm at 1900 with some friends right now. Do you want to come over here? Or should we meet somewhere else?"
"1900 OK! Pretty good! That's it!"
"Then we'll wait for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Cheng felt his eyes go dark, and his head was covered by something. Before he could come to his senses, a barrage of fists like a rainstorm fell on his body.
For a moment, the intense pain was like a tide, completely drowning him.
He struggled and shouted loudly, but the man who beat him didn't give him any chance to break free. Moreover, the louder he shouted, the harder he beat him, almost beating him to death.
After a while, the dense punches stopped.
Li Cheng struggled to pull off the sack on his head and was hit twice in the face with heavy punches. He was hit lightly and immediately grimaced in pain, as if his cheek bone was broken.
