Chapter 44 Chapter 44 It turns out that...
Wen Yao tried to persuade him while struggling, but she could not gain any advantage until he quickly tied her wrists to the head of the bed with a belt, then left her and went to the living room to get her cell phone.
Before she understood what was going on, she saw him touch her fingerprint with his phone.
Thinking of the text message she had sent before, Wen Yao knew that she was completely finished.
The anonymous number software is still on the phone, and the anonymous text messages sent to Jiang Lin have not been deleted.
There are also chat records with Yao Jingjing.
And the chat records with Lu Wan.
He knew that she had tipped off Jiang Lin, that she had gone to his office to look up information, that she and Yao Jingjing had deceived him together, and that she had been in contact with Lu Wan for a long time, gaining her trust step by step.
After flipping through his phone, Jiang Yue looked up at her and smiled, "You're hiding it quite well. What's going on? Are you trying to outmaneuver me?"
Wen Yao knew it was time for a showdown. The fact that she was tied up gave her a bit more courage amidst her fear. Seeing him laugh, she yelled at him, "Isn't it just acting? Everyone can do that! Jiang Yue, do you think I'm a fool? You have to understand that you're all my creation. Everyone knows your scheming! You actually used your beauty trick on me! If I fell for it, I'd make you the male lead. You're not my style, okay?"
Jiang Yue's face was unusually calm. He stared at her intently and spoke slowly, "So your plan is to put on a show to steady me, then secretly win over Lu Wan, and then join Lu Wan to deal with me together?"
Wen Yao gritted her teeth and said, "That depends on your performance. If you don't commit suicide, they won't take the initiative to deal with you."
"Unfortunately, you are doomed to fail." Jiang Yue looked at her with a cold glint in his eyes: "I told you before, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit."
Hearing his words, Wen Yao's heart leaped into her throat, not knowing what he was going to do. She quickly reminded him, "I'm your only hope for changing your fate. I think you should be more cautious and think carefully about what to do."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yue's phone rang again.
He threw her phone down, picked up his own, and walked out of the bedroom.
Wen Yao immediately struggled to free her hand from the belt, but after trying for a long time, she was unable to do so and it only rubbed her wrist so hard that it hurt.
After a while, Jiang Yue came into the room. He had already hung up the phone, but there was a pink ribbon in his hand, which looked like it had been untied from the bouquet of roses.
"What are you doing?" Wen Yao asked nervously, and then added anxiously: "I'm telling you, if you dare to do anything to me, I will definitely call the police. I belong to this world now. Lu Wan knows me, and Jiang Lin knows me too. If you do anything to me, you will not be able to escape. I will definitely not let you go..."
Jiang Yue said nothing and tied her ankles with a ribbon.
"I'll be back in an hour," he said, standing up and leaving the room.
Wen Yao didn't know what was waiting for her, but this hour was undoubtedly her last chance.
But the belt is so strong, and the tie ribbon is also strong, especially the tie ribbon, which is not only tied tightly, but also hurts when tied to the feet.
Tired of struggling, she lay on the bed, catching her breath, and then tried to think of how to get out.
A belt seemed easier than a ribbon, if she could get the end of it.
Wen Yao studied yoga for three months last year, but later found that she had gone less than ten times in those three months. So now she regrets not practicing more often, which is why her body is so stiff and not flexible enough now.
She was trying to pull on the leash with her feet, thinking it was the only possible way to get free.
Jiang Yue loved having a clock in her room, but she didn't have an alarm clock in this room. She only knew that time was passing by, but she had no idea how much time had passed. When people are extremely nervous, they can't tell how fast time is passing.
Several times she reached for the belt but was unable to pull it free.
A few times it opened a little, but never enough to unlock the buckle.
There were times when I felt like I was about to pull it apart, but my body just didn’t have the strength.
It wasn't until she stopped to rest for the umpteenth time that a question suddenly occurred to her: Did he have a square buckle or a clip buckle on his belt?
These two buckles open in different ways!
Wen Yao tried hard to recall, but found that she had no recollection at all: she wouldn't stare at his belt even if she had nothing to do!
She could only think hard about what style she would write about Jiang Yue's belt if she were to describe it now. Jiang Yue was undoubtedly very particular about appearance. His belt would definitely be a well-known brand, with good quality and a nice design. Buckles seemed a bit old-fashioned, so he would probably choose a square buckle.
After choosing the direction, Wen Yao began to change her method and used her feet to reach the square buckle of the belt. This was simpler than the buckle, as she just had to pry it open.
Jiang Yue had no intention of leaving when he tied her up, so he might not have hidden the square buckle behind his back.
Wen Yao looked up at the headboard, straining her legs to reach the buckle. After several attempts, she finally managed to reach it. But when she tried to open it, she ran out of strength.
If she repeated it ten times, she would hear a slight "pop" sound unexpectedly.
As soon as my wrist loosened, the belt came untied!
Wen Yao cried with joy, quickly broke free from her wrists, and then went to untie the ribbons on her feet. Without even looking at the painful wound, she grabbed her cell phone and rushed out the door.
She wanted to find Lu Wan and tell her that she was deceived by Jiang Yue. Because she found out that Jiang Yue was having an affair, she had a few arguments with Jiang Yue, and unexpectedly he tied her up. In short, she found out that Jiang Yue was a dangerous person, and now she wanted to divorce him, and asked Lu Wan to save her.
Given the character of the heroine Lu Wan, if she sees a desperate girl asking her for help, she will definitely save her.
And this girl will become her loyal follower or best friend in the future. This logic also holds true in the world of novels.
After getting off the elevator, Wen Yao realized that it was raining outside, and it was raining quite heavily.
She tried to hail a taxi in front of the apartment building, but after several minutes, no one responded. Fearing she'd run into Jiang Yue, who had returned, she had no choice but to head back to the community gate to hail another taxi.
It was already dark, and she was not familiar with the neighborhood. It took her almost ten minutes to find the gate and get a taxi there.
The taxi app continued to queue for her. She was extremely anxious and stood in the rain for seven or eight minutes before getting in the car. She checked her phone and saw that Jiang Yue would be back in more than twenty minutes.
If he found out that she had escaped, he would definitely look for her. If he caught her before she met Lu Wan, everything would be over.
Bishui Bay was still some distance away, and because it was raining, the driver didn't dare to drive fast. The road was also slightly congested, and Wen Yao felt like she was going to die of anxiety.
Her body had long been soaked by the rain and she was shivering with cold. When the car was stuck near Bishui Bay, she called Lu Wan to ask if she had returned home and to get some strength and comfort from her.
However, I called her three times in a row, but she didn't answer.
It can’t be a meeting...it’s best if she goes to take a shower.
Ten minutes later, the car arrived at Bishuiwan. Before the car even stopped, she ran to the building where Lu Wanjianglin lived in a panic.
I took the elevator to their door and rang the doorbell.
No one opened the door.
Could it be that the worst possible outcome occurred and both of them were not here?
But apart from this place, she didn't know where Lu Wan's home was or where her company was. If she continued looking, Jiang Yue would come and arrest her!
I can only call Lu Wan again and hope she will answer.
As soon as I dialed the number, I heard a voice from the corridor: "What are you doing here?"
Wen Yao turned around and saw Jiang Lin just getting out of the elevator.
Seeing him, she was almost crying with excitement and ran to him: "It's so good to see you, that... I..."
Wen Yao nervously organized her words, and finally looked at him pleadingly: "Can you help me?"
"Help you?" Jiang Lin was slightly stunned, and looked at her with confusion and doubt.
Wen Yao quickly explained: "It's me... Jiang Yue..."
She had never had an in-depth conversation with Jiang Lin. They were not much more familiar than strangers. She didn't know how to start talking about Jiang Yue.
At this moment, the elevator door opened again with a "ding" sound, and Lu Wan walked out of the elevator.
Seeing her, Wen Yao was so excited that she almost cried. Lu Wan also looked at her, and somehow, a slight smile appeared on her face.
At this time, Jiang Lin looked at Lu Wan: "Why are you back again?"
Lu Wan replied: "I forgot to take my phone."
Wen Yao suddenly realized and couldn't help but say, "No wonder I couldn't get through to you on the phone. I had no choice but to come directly here."
Lu Wan replied: "Didn't I reply to you and say I was having dinner with friends tonight?"
Wen Yao remembered that she had indeed contacted Lu Wan at noon. Lu Wan said that she was busy with work. She asked why she didn't take a break at noon. Lu Wan didn't reply at that time, and she didn't look at her phone later. So Lu Wan told her later that she was going out in the evening and would not be at home?
But in the end, none of this matters.
Wen Yao ignored all this and asked anxiously, "Lu Wan, there's something I need you to help me with."
Lu Wan looked at her again and said, "Let's go in first. Go change your clothes." Then she opened the door.
Lu Wan entered the door first, and Wen Yao followed her in, but because she was soaked, she did not go any further and instead stood at the entrance.
"Wait a minute, I'll call them and let them eat first." Lu Wan started looking for her cell phone as soon as she entered the door.
Wen Yao quickly said, "I'll call you." Then she dialed the umpteenth number to her, and the ringtone soon rang in the house.
The sound seemed to be very close. Wen Yao looked towards the entrance cabinet in the direction of the sound source, and saw Lu Wan's cell phone lying under a hat.
"Here!" Wen Yao took off her hat and saw the cell phone. She was about to hand it to Lu Wan, but saw three words displayed on the screen: Scheming woman.
Scheming woman?
It took Wen Yao a long time to remember that this was a note for herself.
At this time, Lu Wan also walked a few steps over here, saw the note, and then looked at her, and the two of them looked at each other.
Wen Yao could hardly believe what she was seeing, and repeated the name to her: "Scheming woman?"
She was wondering if someone had played a prank on Lu Wan, or if there had been some misunderstanding, so when she asked the question, she was expecting Lu Wan's explanation.
However, Lu Wan didn't look like she was in a hurry to explain. She just said calmly, "Do you like Jiang Lin?"
Wen Yao looked at Lu Wan in disbelief. She did have special feelings for Jiang Lin, but that was not the same as love between a man and a woman. In fact, relatively speaking, her feelings for Lu Wan were deeper.
Lu Wan continued, "Because she likes Jiang Lin, she deliberately tried to get close to me and become good friends with me, and then used this good sister relationship to meet Jiang Lin by chance. Wen Yao, I'm not stupid, I'm just used to this kind of despicable trick and I'm too lazy to expose it."
Wen Yao then remembered that she had entered Jiang Lin's room by mistake, remembered that she had asked Lu Wan for Jiang Lin's number, and remembered that she had not waited for Lu Wan outside the door, but had waited for Jiang Lin.
She looked at herself. Her skirt was white and it was a little transparent after being drenched in the rain. Did she look sexy at this moment?
She finally understood what Lu Wan's slight smile meant when she saw her just now. It represented her contempt and ridicule for her. She thought that she and Lu Wan were at least a confidant and friend, but she didn't expect that she was just a clown.
Wen Yao didn't know how to explain, and felt like she didn't have the energy to explain.
She was indeed trying hard to get close to Lu Wan, but her feelings were real. In this strange world, she felt that Lu Wan and Jiang Lin were the people she was most familiar with and the people she could trust the most, so she wanted to protect them and rely on them. She felt that her relationship with them must be different from that of others.
But it turned out that in Lu Wan's eyes, she was just a green tea supporting actress.
Tears mixed with rain flowed down her face. She wanted to wipe them away, but was afraid that they would find out that she was crying.
At this time, Jiang Lin explained to Lu Wan: "I have no relationship with her, and I didn't know her at all before."
Lu Wan said nothing.
At this moment, a voice rang out from the doorway: "Are you sure you don't know she's your sister-in-law? You've only been an illegitimate child for eight years, not eighteen. In all these years in the Jiang family, haven't you learned the rules of respecting elders and juniors?"
It was Jiang Yue's voice. The door was not closed. He came directly in from outside and looked at Jiang Lin coldly.
