Chapter 7 What should I call him, husband?
"she……"
Ning Yan shut up after saying just one word, his eyes wide open with the thought that it was all over.
After 8 hours, the effect of the medicine has worn off.
His voice has now returned to that of a man.
Yu Chengbai noticed that his expression was not right, and immediately stood up, walked around the desk and stood in front of him.
He lowered his head to look at Ning Yan and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Ning Yan avoided his hand that was trying to support her, took a few steps back, and shook her head.
Yu Chengbai's half-extended hand froze for a moment, and without saying anything, he slowly withdrew it.
The two stood facing each other in the light, not far away, but not close either.
After a moment of silence, Yu Chengbai raised his eyes and continued to look at him, his voice becoming increasingly gentle as he said, "Let's not talk about the past anymore, okay?"
"Don't be angry."
He thought Ning Yan was angry about what he had just said.
Ning Yan still didn't say anything. After a while, he walked around him and walked towards the door without saying a word.
It looked like she was angry and didn't want to pay attention to him.
Yu Chengbai didn't dare to chase after him, but subconsciously stretched out his hand. Seeing that he didn't hold it happily as usual, he withdrew his hand in disappointment.
He stared at the open door for a long time before slowly sitting down on the sofa.
With his head supported by his right hand, it was hard to tell whether his eyes showed more sadness or self-blame.
Perhaps, he has begun to regret that he should not have returned home alone.
On this side, Ning Yan, who had just gone out, picked up her skirt and ran all the way.
There was no one else in the villa tonight. Even Beibei was taken away by Aya in advance, so there was no need to worry about being seen.
After returning to the room, Ning Yan locked the door first, then walked into the cloakroom, pulled open his innermost clothes, pressed the switch in a hidden place, revealing the stairs hidden behind.
Walking down the stairs, a small basement opens up before your eyes.
The walls were covered with advanced weapons from various countries, from cold weapons to guns and ammunition, covering an entire wall. Each weapon was polished and wiped clean. It looked more like a large display cabinet than an armory.
At the end is a large operating table, neatly divided into several sections.
There is a sand table simulating the terrain, guns being disassembled and assembled, and many tools used for disguise.
And on the far right, several glass bottles filled with blue pills were neatly placed—
That's the medicine he uses to change his voice.
Ning Yan was certain that the main reason he lost his memory was because he discovered this basement that had obviously taken a lot of effort.
The tools and their placement are exactly the same as his usual habits, and are definitely his own work. This largely proves that he has really stayed in this manor for a long time.
At least two months.
Moreover, in the past two months, he must have contacted many of his former friends in the underworld and asked them to prepare weapons and medicine for him.
The only thing that puzzled Ning Yan was why he built such a basement in Yu Chengbai's manor?
Why did he choose to stay with Yu Chengbai before he lost his memory?
Is it because he is easy to deceive?
Ning Yan felt that based on his understanding of himself, the possibility of him using Yu Chengbai was obviously greater than falling in love with him.
If his death was not an accident, then what he said to Cheng Zhengze before was not a lie. It is very likely that he chose to marry Yu Chengbai in order to find out the truth about his death.
Ning Yan put on gloves, picked up a glass bottle, poured out a blue pill from it, and threw it directly into his mouth.
The voice-changing pill takes half an hour to take effect, so he has to wait before going out to see Yu Chengbai.
Suddenly, the projection on the wall lit up.
Ning Yan turned around and saw that the posts on the dark web were constantly refreshing without logging out. The one that just flashed was his private message.
Click on the other person's profile picture, and there are four new messages:
[What's going on? I saw the young master of the Cecil family return to the Golden Triangle? ]
[The number of bodyguards around him has tripled! ]
【You missed? 】
【Waste! 】
This was the first time in Ning Yan's life that he was associated with the word "waste".
He seemed to find it novel, raised his eyebrows, lowered his head, and typed on the virtual keyboard with a smile.
Scarlet electronic light danced rapidly on ten slender fingers, and a short line of words was quickly sent over with the tap of the Enter key:
[You will soon know whether I am a waste or not. ]
After closing the dark web and switching the computer to another system, Ning Yan called Cheng Zhengze using a virtual number.
Fortunately, Cheng Zhengze's contact information has not changed.
Ning Yan turned on the voice changer of the call device and greeted with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Cheng."
There was silence on the other side for a second, and then a voice said calmly: "Mrs. Yu, do you like to call men in the middle of the night?"
"..." Ning Yan smiled, "It's true that nothing can be hidden from Mr. Cheng's ears."
The person on the other end didn't say anything, waiting to know the purpose of his call.
"I can help you deal with the guy who hired me to kill your son."
"condition."
"One million dollars."
Ning Yan heard someone laugh from the other side. Cheng Zhengze rarely showed such obvious disdain. His voice was cold and light, and he said, "He's not worth the price, and neither are you."
After saying that, the phone was hung up.
Ning Yan looked up at the darkened page, moved the corners of his mouth, and slowly smiled.
not worth?
Very well, I'll let you see if I'm worth it.
Half an hour later, Ning Yan, who had regained her female voice, went to the study to find Yu Chengbai for dinner, but she didn't find him. The study was empty and the computer was cold.
It looks like he's been away for quite a while.
"Aya." Ning Yan called Aya and asked her as he walked down the stairs and out of the villa, "Where's Yu Chengbai?"
Aya seemed to sigh and said, "Madam, you never called your husband by his full name before."
Ning Yan didn't take it seriously and said casually, "Then what should I call him? Husband?"
"Call him Mr. Yu before we got married."
Ning Yan was stunned. "Is it so artistic?"
Aya had explained it to him before, but it seemed he didn't take it to heart. She reluctantly explained it again, "Mr. is your savior. It was snowing heavily in Chris City at the time, and you and Miss Beibei were almost frozen to death on the street. It was Mr. who brought you back home."
"You fell in love with him at first sight, and you got married not long after."
"After we got married, you always called him Mr."
"Wait a minute." Ning Yan interrupted her, frowning and asking, "You just said that I almost froze to death on the street with Beibei? Isn't Beibei Yu Chengbai's daughter?"
"No, Miss Beibei is your daughter. Because the gentleman didn't want you to be criticized, he told everyone that Beibei was his child."
“…”
Aya sighed and said, "You really don't remember anything at all?"
Ning Yan's face was full of confusion and doubt. He automatically blocked out the voice on the phone, and his mind was full of what Yu Chengbai had just said to him in the study.
Beibei is his daughter?
Have you been married before?
So that's why Yu Chengbai suspected Cheng Zhengze?
Chris City? Did he and Yu Chengbai meet in Chris City?
