Chapter 9 Recognizing Her Imprisonment in the Secret Chamber
Upon seeing the door open, Murong Ting was first taken aback, then frowned—
It turned out to be the woman I met in the elevator today.
He thought about it and realized that the woman had indeed pressed the button for the 26th floor.
His sharp gaze turned inquisitive.
Kong Wange decided to strike first, "It's you again! This gentleman is knocking on people's doors in the middle of the night, are you out of your mind?"
Murong Ting frowned, perhaps knowing he was in the wrong, and unusually didn't get angry. "I'm looking for someone. I wonder if this lady... miss knows Chanyi?"
Kong Wange didn't expect him to be so direct.
After a half-second pause, she immediately said, "I don't know him. If there's nothing else, I'm closing up shop."
As she spoke, she was about to close the door.
Unexpectedly, Murong Ting already had some suspicions about her, and her hesitation only deepened his suspicions.
Murong Ting blocked the door, stared into her eyes, and stated his deduction, "You are Chanyi, aren't you?"
"No!" Kong Wange's heart skipped a beat, and she used all her strength to close the door.
But just as the two were shoving each other, there was a "snap" sound, and her mask suddenly burst open!
An awkward atmosphere filled the air.
Murong Ting stared intently at her, without saying a word.
Kong Wange's heart tightened, but she forced herself to remain calm.
It's okay. Her skin has become fairer in the past few years, and she's gotten a perm. She looks better than ever, so he might not recognize her.
She kept trying to comfort herself.
But the next moment, a man's harsh voice pierced her eardrums, each word distinct and sharp—
"Kong, Wan, Ge!"
He would recognize that dead woman who forced him into this state, even if she were reduced to ashes!
Murong Ting stared at the woman in front of him, almost as if he wanted to burn a hole in her with his gaze.
He stepped to the side, gritting his teeth: "I can't believe you dare to come back! It's ridiculous that I would even suspect you were Chanyi. Chanyi is a benevolent healer, renowned both at home and abroad. How could a woman like you possibly be her!"
Kong Wange took a deep breath, trying to remain calm: "Sir, what nonsense are you spouting so late at night? You're looking for Chanyi and talking about Kong Wange. Who are you looking for? I don't know any of these people. If there's nothing else, I'm going to close the door and go to sleep."
Murong Ting grabbed her and pulled her out, a strange smile on his face: "Is that so? I'll see how long you can keep up this act!"
After he finished speaking, he picked up Kong Wange and left.
"Murong Ting, let me go!" Seeing the man's frantic appearance, Kong Wange was truly panicked.
Murong Ting paused, turned around and sneered: "You're not pretending anymore so soon?"
Kong Wange gritted her teeth: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"What are you doing?" The man gripped her hand tightly and pulled her into the elevator. "Now that we've run into each other, you don't think you can just let what happened five years ago go, do you?"
The elevator doors closed, shutting out their voices.
Unexpectedly, this scene was witnessed by Kong Chi, who had just come down the stairs.
His small body hid behind the potted plants on the stairs, filled with indignation!
He even felt sorry for that uncle and did his homework so diligently.
Turns out he was a complete and utter villain!
How dare you steal Mommy away?
Just wait, he'll definitely find a way to rescue Mommy!
Murong Ting covered Kong Wange's mouth the whole way and carried her into the study.
This study is a suite with a door secured by a combination lock; it's actually a secret room.
He pressed his fingerprint and threw her into the secret room.
It was pitch black all around, with only a few eerie beams of light shining from the walls, which only added to the sinister and eerie atmosphere of the place.
"Murong Ting, what are you doing? Imprisoning someone without permission is illegal!"
"Imprisonment? Ha," Murong Ting sneered, "What you did to me, I'm just letting you experience it too!"
Kong Wange's heart skipped a beat. "Don't do anything reckless! Forcing your wife's will during marriage is illegal!"
"You wish!"
After saying that, he picked up his phone and called Lin Cheng: "Get ten hunks!"
"Young Master Ting, this is..." Lin Cheng on the other end was somewhat puzzled.
Could it be that Young Master Ting has found Chanyi, but she refuses, and he wants to force her to comply?
Murong Ting snorted coldly: "I want to see the person within half an hour!"
After saying that, he slammed down the phone, didn't look at Kong Wange again, and left the secret room.
He wants her to pay the price for her reckless behavior back then!
"Murong Ting, you're a madman!"
Kong Wange gritted her teeth as she watched his retreating figure, and after a long while, she sat down on the ground in frustration.
The most important thing right now is how to get out.
She just saw that the secret room has a fingerprint lock, which can only be opened from the outside.
She had to find a way to escape as soon as possible, but the incident happened so suddenly that she didn't have her phone with her.
After leaving the study, Murong Ting went to the children's room on the second floor to check on the situation, since the commotion just now was quite loud.
The door was closed. As soon as he pushed it open, the first thing he saw was Murong Chen's little bottom sticking out and rummaging around.
He looked around, and for a moment felt like his head was about to explode—
The entire room was ransacked and in complete disarray.
Books were scattered on the floor, blankets and pillows were pushed to the foot of the bed, and the desk lamp lay sprawled on the table...
If you didn't know better, you'd think your house had been burgled.
Murong Ting's face darkened. This brat, he was just doing his homework obediently a moment ago, how did he suddenly go crazy again?
He roared, "Murong Chen, what are you searching for?"
