I reluctantly let go of her hand, but the anger in my heart still couldn't be suppressed.
I warned Yan Meng in a cold voice: "You'd better not be lying to me."
Yan Meng smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, I still have a use for him! I can't bear to let him die like this."
I frowned in confusion while Yan Meng explained slowly.
"Although Lucas has developed a chip, his research and development is not perfect. There are still some bugs that have not been solved and need Lu Zhiyuan's help to test them."
Speaking of this, a bright smile appeared on Yan Meng's lips, and there was an excitement and anticipation in his eyes.
It seems like he thought of some funny scene.
This smile made my heart tremble and a chill ran down my spine.
My intuition tells me that Yan Meng's words have a deeper meaning.
What does he mean by "testing"?
I couldn't help but recall the look in Lucas's eyes when he treated me as a test subject in the laboratory. That desire for results was exactly the same as Yan Meng's expression at this moment.
Could it be that they want Lu Zhiyuan to be a “test subject”?
This thought exploded in my mind, and my scalp instantly went numb and my chest felt heavy and painful.
I shook my head uncontrollably and my feet stepped back involuntarily.
“No, no!”
I had already fallen back into the sea, and the cold water rushed over my calves with the waves.
"Xiao Shan, what are you going to do?" The smile on Yan Meng's face disappeared, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes.
I took a look at my situation, made up my mind, and took two steps back.
"I want to see Lu Zhiyuan! I want to ensure his safety!"
I guessed that Yan Meng didn't want to see me die, so I took advantage of this and used my own life to control him and make him agree to my request.
Yan Meng had compromised several times before, which gave me some hope.
However, this time, Yan Meng's expression remained calm. He was not frightened by my behavior at all, nor did he have any intention of stopping me.
Instead, he leisurely picked up his phone and continued taking pictures of me, asking nonchalantly, "Are you really willing to commit suicide?"
His words hit my soft spot directly, "Can you bear to leave your mother, your Uncle Mingyuan, your grandparents, and even your best friend Qiu Qiu?"
My body suddenly stiffened, and the coldness from my heart to my limbs made me tremble uncontrollably.
The cold sea water had already reached my knees and seeped into my wounds. The stinging pain became increasingly intense, and my face gradually turned pale.
But I still stood there without moving, staring at Yan Meng. He was gambling, and I was gambling too.
After a moment of stalemate, Yan Meng sighed and finally let go.
"Since you want to see him, then I agree to it. There's no need for you to humiliate yourself like this."
But I still pressed on: "When?"
"In two days." Yan Meng suppressed his anger and promised in a calm voice, "Then someone will send the test results over, and then you can see Lu Zhiyuan through the video."
His compromise made me breathe a sigh of relief. My tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and I felt the chill all over my body.
I know this is the biggest concession Yan Meng can make.
It is also the only way for me to see Lu Zhiyuan.
Yan Meng is right, I don’t dare to commit suicide at all.
Not only do I miss my family, I also miss Lu Zhiyuan even more.
We finally put aside all the misunderstandings and started over. I don't want him to be alone again.
And only if I stay alive and well can I force Yan Meng to let him go.
