Yan Meng's condition and the space of this secret room made me feel depressed and uncomfortable, and I was eager to escape from this place.
"I have something to do at the company, so I'll leave first." I made an excuse to leave, but Yan Meng grabbed my arm.
"Don't leave in such a hurry." His expression was intriguing and hard to read. "There's an old friend waiting for you to meet."
I was stunned. Old friend?
Yan Meng took me out of the secret room, put the cabinet back in place, and covered the secret door on the wall.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined that there was such a place in Yan Meng's office.
I sat down on the sofa in the office, feeling inexplicably anxious.
Who was the old friend he was talking about? What was his intention in bringing us together here suddenly?
I looked at Yan Meng's back as he was making tea, and my heart suddenly felt cold.
The warmth he brought me when we were in Europe was now overshadowed by fear.
Can't see through.
I really can't figure out what he's thinking.
As for what he was going to do next, the revenge he threatened, I only felt a chill spreading through my limbs.
Yan Meng sat next to me with the brewed tea and handed me a cup.
I reached out to take it, and accidentally touched his fingertips.
Then, he suddenly frowned, took away my teacup, and held my hand in his palm.
"What's going on? Why are your hands so cold?"
His hands were very warm, but I didn't miss this warmth at all.
I struggled to pull my hand free, but he held it tighter.
Yan Meng frowned and stared at me, asking word by word, "Why? We've been through life and death together, and you still reject me like this?"
"I……"
It’s not that I don’t want to have a sincere relationship with him. In my heart, I am willing to treat him as a friend. I know that everything he does has his reasons.
But other than being friends, I have no other feelings towards him.
Just as I was about to reaffirm our relationship once again, the office door was pushed open.
I subconsciously looked up and my body suddenly froze.
Lu Zhiyuan?
I repeated this name in my mind and my heart trembled for no reason.
Lu Zhiyuan was also surprised to see me, and he seemed to have no idea that I was here.
When he saw Yan Meng and I holding hands, his brows instantly turned stern and he walked over to me and pulled me to his side.
Lu Zhiyuan's strong reaction was met with a sneer from Yan Meng.
He tilted his head to look at Lu Zhiyuan, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Lu Zhiyuan, you must have forgotten, right? You and Xiaoshan are divorced. Put away your overflowing possessiveness. She no longer belongs to you."
"Then don't even think about taking advantage of her!" Lu Zhiyuan had a tough attitude and faced Yan Meng as if he were facing an enemy.
The smile on Yan Meng's lips deepened: "That's not up to you."
Lu Zhiyuan ignored him and turned to look at me with concern: "How are you? Did he hurt you?"
When I looked into Lu Zhiyuan's eyes, I suddenly started to feel nervous.
I remembered those painful nightmares and instinctively took a few steps back to keep some distance from him.
My chest felt stuffy and tight, making it hard to breathe. The images from my dream kept flashing through my mind, making me more and more panicked.
There seemed to be a voice in my mind, repeating over and over again: "Leave him! Leave him..."
My action made Lu Zhiyuan stunned at first, and then his eyes dimmed.
At this time, Yan Meng narrowed his eyes and said in a bad tone: "You are the one who should stay away from her!"
