☆, Chapter 124: Setting Up a Scheme
"Your method... is really bad!" After hearing this, Wen Mianyu couldn't help but refresh his understanding of Lu Congxu.
I thought Actor Lu was a gentleman with the most principles, but he actually came up with such a mean trick?
Isn't this an idea that only a bad person like her can come up with?
"It doesn't matter whether it's good or not, as long as it works." Lu Congxu raised his eyebrows and made a rare face at her.
Wen Mianyu laughed heartily, "It's over, it's over. Mr. Lu has become bad since he got together with me."
"What do you think?" Lu Congxu asked.
"I think it's a good idea. Let's do it." Wen Mianyu agreed and asked, "Have you prepared the manpower?"
"I'll prepare it right away." Lu Congxu said.
…
After Wen Run returned, he went directly to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning has been busy immigrating abroad these past two days and has been persuading him to go with her. Wen Run pretended to agree, but deliberately slowed down his actions and delayed dealing with the assets under his name. Xia Ning was very anxious about this and kept calling him to urge him.
Sometimes he avoided her, pretending to be busy, and sometimes he pretended to comfort her, and this dragged on for a few days.
But tonight was different. Following Lu Congxu's instructions, Wen Run arrived at Xia Ning's house and told her the good news that everything had been handled and he could leave at any time.
Wen Run gave Xia Ning a hug, "Xiao Ning, now we can go wherever you want to go and stay together for the rest of our lives."
"Yes, I'm very happy to be with you forever." Xia Ning hugged him back with a look of deep affection, but she was actually a little disapproving in her heart.
Where do you want to go?
God knows how much she likes her country.
Now that she is rich, she can enjoy a life of luxury in her country. Unfortunately, in order to avoid Wen Xueyao and for her own safety, she has to go abroad.
There is freedom abroad, but due to the cultural differences, it is difficult to integrate into the society. She also has no place to show off her superiority. In fact, it is not as good as in China.
It was all Wen Xueyao’s fault. Xia Ning suddenly felt resentful towards Wen Xueyao.
"By the way, Xiao Ning, I received a call from Wen Xueyao while I was driving just now." Wen Run let go of her and said suddenly.
Xia Ning's heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "Why did she look for you? What did she say?"
"It's nothing, she just asked about us. She heard that you were going abroad and asked me if I wanted to go with you." Wen Run pretended not to notice her strangeness and answered readily.
"She asked you?" Xia Ning frowned.
"Well, she probably knows that we are in a relationship, so she asked." Wen Run answered casually, then pretended to be attracted by what Xia Ning was packing and went over to see her packed luggage.
"Let me see what Xiao Ning brought."
"Nothing..." Xia Ning said perfunctorily, standing there, lost in thought.
You know, not long after Wen Mianyu's death, she began to frequently ask Wen Xueyao for the promised compensation.
At that time, Wen Xueyao kept delaying on the grounds that she was afraid of being found out, and she wanted to avoid her. When had she ever cared about her affairs?
How come after they finally broke up after transferring money recently, Wen Xueyao came to care about her instead?
Is it to care about her or to monitor her?
Knowing that she was going to immigrate with Wen Run, did you feel that you had lost control over her?
What do you want to know by calling Wen Run?
The more Xia Ning thought about it, the more insecure she felt. She had originally just suspected that Wen Xueyao would abandon her, but now she was certain that Wen Xueyao had been monitoring her. If she had no intention of abandoning her, why would she pay so much attention to her every move?
Now that she heard that she was going to immigrate, would Wen Xueyao take any action?
It was a hot summer day, but Xia Ning felt cold all over. For the first time, she regretted her choice.
If she had known that Wen Xueyao was such a pervert, she would have refused to go along with her. If she had told Wen Xueyao's plan to Wen Mianyu, she would have received some reward.
Why should we be so nervous like now?
"Wen Run..." Xia Ning walked forward and hugged Wen Run from behind, "You will go abroad with me and protect me forever."
"Of course I will, little fool. Who else can I protect if I don't protect you?" Wen Run said as a matter of course.
"Thank goodness you're here." Xia Ning felt a little relieved, and her expression softened a lot.
…
The two of them had been in a relationship for a short time, and there had been no substantial progress in their relationship, only hugging each other.
Xia Ning did think about taking it a step further, but Wen Run always said that he respected her and didn't want to do anything to her before marriage, wanting to save the precious things for the wedding night.
Nowadays, few men are willing to endure this for their girlfriends. Xia Ning was deeply moved and felt that being more conservative would make the other party respect her more. Therefore, she has always been very reserved and has never let Wen Run spend the night at home.
The same thing happened tonight. Wen Run had dinner at Xia Ning's house. After the two of them watched TV on the sofa for a while, Wen Run suggested going home.
Xia Ning was uneasy because of Wen Xueyao's call. Today, she didn't want him to leave at all. She held him tightly, "Wen Run, why don't you leave tonight? We... have been together for so long. I feel that our relationship is strong enough for me to entrust you."
"No, Xiao Ning, I can't disrespect you like this. It's still too fast." Wen Run didn't compromise and pulled his hand back. "I've already made up my mind. We'll get married when we get to Australia. I still can't stay the night now."
"But..." Xia Ning wanted to say something.
Wen Run put a finger to her lips and said, "No buts. I respect you as much as I love you."
Xia Ning was speechless. Wen Run was willing to endure it for her. If she insisted any further, it would seem indulgent.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Xia Ning stood up.
The two went out together. In order to spend more time with Wen Run, Xia Ning sent him to the gate of the community.
After watching the warm sports car drive away, Xia Ning took a deep breath and turned back with a serious expression.
After she walked into the community, she always felt that something was wrong, as if a pair of eyes were secretly staring at her.
People occasionally feel that someone around them is watching them. Sometimes it is an illusion, and sometimes it is an intuition.
Xia Ning didn't know whether it was an illusion or intuition. Normally, she would have ignored it, but now, she couldn't help but turn her head and look around.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind her. Xia Ning turned her head sharply and saw a figure flash by.
Before she could even see the other person's appearance clearly, Xia Ning felt a pain at the back of her head and passed out.
…
When she woke up again, Xia Ning found herself in a dimly lit room.
The room was very narrow and there was a foul smell in the air that was so pungent that people were afraid to breathe deeply.
She was tied up and sitting on a wooden chair that creaked every time she moved. The floor was damp and cold, and the cool air shone through the thin soles of her shoes.
"Who? Who tied me up?" Xia Ning looked around and struggled desperately to break free from the ropes on her body.
With a creak, the door in front was suddenly opened from the outside, and a beam of light shone in.
Xia Ning narrowed her eyes and looked over, seeing a man wearing sunglasses coming in.
The man was tall and strong, like a bodyguard in a movie. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with exposed arms, and both arms were covered with tattoos.
He looks very social and not easy to mess with.
"You...you brought me here?" Xia Ning was frightened, and her tone of questioning was very timid.
"It's me. What's wrong? Do you have any objections?" The man stepped forward and slapped her in the face with a heavy slap.
"You little bitch, you dare to talk to me like that? I think you deserve a beating!"
Xia Ning was stunned by the beating. She didn't dare to shout in such a place, and didn't even talk back.
The man then lifted her chin and said, "Be more polite when you speak to me, or don't blame me for being rude."
"Although the master said he would teach you a lesson and told you to wait for his instructions on the next step, he didn't say what the lesson would be. As for the lesson, I can decide whatever you want. It depends on whether you know what's good for you." The man looked down at her with a malicious smile on his face.
Xia Ning had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so she immediately understood the man's hint and tried her best to shrink back, "No, let me go, I have a boyfriend!"
"Only married women are exciting. A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover. Haven't you heard it?" The man scratched her chin with his fingertips.
Xia Ning tried her best to dodge, but because she was tied up, she couldn't get far away and could only be forced to be molested by the man.
The man was teasing her when his phone suddenly rang and he let go and stepped aside to answer it.
"Miss Wen." The man greeted the person on the other end of the phone respectfully.
Xia Ning's heart skipped a beat. She looked over in shock, seeing the man speaking to the person on the phone with a completely different attitude from her. "Yes, yes, the person has been captured. We're just waiting for Miss Wen's instructions."
"What? Give her a warning? Don't worry, Miss Wen. I will definitely let her know what to do and what not to do."
"Don't worry, I'll get it done."
Xia Ning was completely shocked. Even though she was mentally prepared, she didn't expect the revenge to come so quickly. Wen Xueyao actually attacked her.
Yes, except for Wen Xueyao, she has no grudges against anyone in City A, so who would treat her like this?
Xia Ningzhen was regretting more and more. She was not clear-headed enough to cooperate with someone like Wen Xueyao.
"Okay, you go ahead with your work, Miss Wen. Leave this to me." The man finally finished the call, said goodbye respectfully, put the phone back in his pocket, and walked towards Xia Ning.
Xia Ning suddenly became extremely nervous. She didn't know what instructions Wen Xueyao had given on the phone. This man didn't even answer the phone behind her back. Could it be that Wen Xueyao wanted to kill her to silence her?
No way!
Xia Ning calmed herself down. If she wanted to silence her, she would have done so long ago. The reason why Wen Xueyao hadn't touched her was because she was afraid that something might happen to her and implicate Wen Xueyao.
Not long after Wen Mianyu's death, her assistant died unexpectedly. Even if the police didn't think much of this coincidence, no one would speak out on the Internet.
Not to mention, Wen Mianyu has a childhood sweetheart who has always been concerned about her, and Lu Congxu seems to still be paying attention to this matter.
"What are you doing!" Xia Ning couldn't control herself any longer as the man approached her. She shouted, "Don't come over here. Don't touch me. Murder is against the law. You can't escape responsibility!"
"Oh, my little beauty, you are so scared. When did I say I wanted to kill someone?" The man laughed and stood in front of her.
Xia Ning's mind calmed down a bit, but she still stared at the man warily, "Then what are you going to do?"
"I'm not doing anything. I'm just giving you a lesson and a warning." The man crossed his arms. "I heard you're planning to immigrate?"
"..." Xia Ning choked and didn't dare to speak.
"Want to flee abroad? You've got a pretty good plan. You think no one can stop you if you flee abroad?" The man sneered. "What a wild idea! Putting aside whether Miss Wen wants you to leave or not, even if you do leave secretly, do you think a foreign country is a safe place?"
"Killing you might not be easy in China, but you're unfamiliar with the place abroad. Even if you disappear, no one will bother looking for you, right?" The man reached out and patted her face. "Don't be cunning. Just stay under Miss Wen's nose. Miss Wen will still give you a chance to live. Otherwise..."
The man's eyes were fierce and full of intimidation. "Don't blame me for being ruthless. When you lose your life, you won't have the chance to regret it."
Xia Ning trembled, but she could not escape the man's control no matter what, and could only let him tease her contemptuously.
"Do you understand?" the man asked.
"I understand." Xia Ning didn't dare to give any other answer.
"I understand." The man smiled with satisfaction and said, "Now that you understand what to do, do what you should do. I'll take you back later and I'll keep an eye on you. If you ever think of escaping again, I'll make you disappear without a trace. Do you understand?"
"I understand. I won't run away again!" Xia Ning nodded repeatedly, tears welling up and sliding down her face, looking both pitiful and ridiculous.
"Very good. I like sensible children like you." The man withdrew his hand and straightened his collar. "You stay here tonight and reflect on your mistakes. If you behave well, I can consider sending you back tomorrow."
"I promise I won't run away again. Can you let me go back now? Please..." Xia Ning pleaded humbly and pitifully.
The man remained unmoved and looked at her coldly, "Since this is your first offense, I'll give you one night to reflect on your actions. Do you want to bargain with me?"
"No, I don't dare." Xia Ning was afraid that resistance would make the man change his mind, so she quickly changed her words and said, "I will reflect on it. I will reflect on it carefully."
"That's better." The man turned and left.
…
That night, Xia Ning experienced the most difficult time she had ever experienced.
She was hungry, sleepy, scared and tired, but she didn't dare fall asleep.
I was afraid that I would fall asleep and wake up in another unknown place, where I would die.
Even if she was awake, she was powerless to resist.
But being awake and thinking made her feel a little safer.
She didn't know whether the man would fulfill his promise and let her go tomorrow morning, but she was determined. If there was a chance to get out, she must get rid of Wen Xueyao completely.
As for how to get rid of...
Xia Ning's mind was racing all night, and she came up with countless strategies.
The next morning, the man came as promised, untied the ropes on her body, and threatened her again.
Xia Ning pretended to be very honest and agreed to all the conditions. She got into the car with the man and was sent back to the outside of the community.
"Go back and remember to behave yourself." The man pushed her out of the car and warned her.
Xia Ning nodded repeatedly, hurried into the community, and ran back home quickly.
After entering, she locked all the doors and windows, and then Xia Ning collapsed on the bed, almost exhausted.
This was the first time in her life that she had been threatened with death. She felt completely stunned and lay there for half an hour before she gradually regained consciousness.
Xia Ning held her cell phone, found Wen Run's number and called him.
