Yan Meng and I left the hotel and Li Tao's car was parked on the side of the road.
Seeing me come out, Li Tao immediately opened the car door and got out, holding his coat in his hand, and walked towards me worriedly.
"Miss, I heard that a murder happened in there. What are you doing..."
Li Tao stared at the bloodstains on my dress. They were left when I hugged Lu Zhiyuan just now.
I gave him a comforting smile: "I'm not hurt, this blood is not mine."
Li Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief and handed me his coat.
He glanced at Yan Meng and said to me, "Mr. Mingyuan knows something happened at the hotel and is worried about your safety. He asked me to take you back immediately."
I turned to look at Yan Meng and said goodbye to him: "Then I'll go back first."
Yan Meng had regained his usual gentleness, forced a smile, and comforted me: "I guess you're scared too. Go back and have a good rest. Don't think too much."
He reached out to touch my head, but I instinctively dodged.
Seeing his expression darken for a moment, I immediately waved goodbye to him, opened the car door and got in to avoid being embarrassed and at a loss.
Sitting in the car, watching it drive away from the hotel, I still felt a lingering fear.
Yan Meng’s gloomy look just now still appears in front of my eyes.
Although he didn't get angry with me, I could feel his anger.
Yan Meng should have arrived at the lounge with me. When I saw blood on Lu Zhiyuan's body, I thought he was injured, so he completely lost control.
My panicked action of going over and picking up Lu Zhiyuan must have aroused Yan Meng's suspicion.
According to his arrangement, I wouldn't be so worried about Lu Zhiyuan at all, and I, who am emotionally insensitive, wouldn't rush forward without thinking.
I hate myself for not being careful enough. This negligence of mine may very well affect the safety of Che Xiaofeng and his father.
But if I had to do it again, I still can't guarantee that I could completely control my emotions.
At that time, Lu Zhiyuan was lying in a pool of blood. That scene made my heart chill.
I took a deep breath and urged Li Tao: "Drive faster!"
I have to protect Che Xiaofeng's safety before Yan Meng takes action.
Once Yan Meng becomes suspicious about the dressing change, he will definitely realize that Che Xiaofeng has betrayed him.
Li Tao didn't ask any more questions and silently increased the speed of the car.
The car stopped at Ming Mansion. I pushed open the door and ran into the villa in panic.
The servant in the living room was so frightened when he saw the blood on me that he dropped the cup in his hand.
"Miss, you..."
I didn't bother to pay attention to the servant and went straight into Che Xiaofeng's room.
Che Xiaofeng was lying on the bed reading a book. When he saw me, he was startled at first, then looked at me in a daze and got up from the bed.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"
I walked up to him without saying a word and held him in my arms.
"It's all right, it's all right."
Che Xiaofeng couldn't understand my mumbling at all. He asked me in a muffled voice, "Sister, are you okay?"
I let him go, clasped my hands on his shoulders, and told him seriously, "Xiao Feng, remember, no one can ask you to leave the villa without my permission. Even Yan Menglai can't take you away, understand?"
Che Xiaofeng blinked in confusion. Although he didn't understand why I told him this, he still nodded obediently.
"Be good!" I touched his head, afraid that he would be scared by my appearance.
After leaving Che Xiaofeng's room, I immediately called Mingyuan.
When the call was connected, Mingyuan was the first to ask about my safety: "I heard that a murder occurred in the hotel where the charity auction was held. Are you okay?"
