188 Prelude (3)

Li Hongmei hid in her blanket at home and shivered again.

Suddenly, her phone rang. Li Hongmei was so frightened that she almost fell off the bed.

Shi Bangqing said unhappily, “What are you doing? Why are you so shocked? Who is calling you so early in the morning? Don’t you know that disturbing someone’s dream is punishable by lightning?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the ringtone that had just stopped rang again.

Shi Bangqing was very annoyed by the noise. He said loudly, “Hurry up and answer the phone. How long are you going to keep this up?”

He was no longer as enthusiastic about Li Hongmei as he was in the beginning. He was getting more and more impatient.

However, he also knew that he could not just abandon Li Hongmei. His assets had totaled more than 100,000 dollars, and 100,000 dollars was with Li Hongmei!

If he didn’t want Li Hongmei, he wouldn’t be able to find another woman!

It was impossible to get the money back. Since that was the case, he would spend the rest of his life with Li Hongmei.

Li Hongmei did not know what the person beside her was thinking.

Li Hongmei’s eyes were filled with fear as she listened to the phone ringing at the head of the bed. She stood by the bed in fear and did not dare to extend her hand.

When Shi Bangqing raised his irritated voice, her hand trembled as she picked up the phone on the bedside table.

However, the moment her gaze landed on the caller ID on her phone screen, she immediately retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

Shi Bangqing was very annoyed by the noise. He lay down on the bed and scolded Li Hongmei angrily, “Are you crazy? Why didn’t you pick up your phone for so long? Are you waiting to be beaten up? Why don’t you hang up? Why don’t you hurry up and answer it outside? Don’t disturb my sleep!”

With that, he lay back on the bed.

Li Hongmei gritted her teeth, picked up her phone, and walked out.

As soon as she walked out of her room, Old Lady Shi immediately scolded, “Vixen, which man are you calling now? You don’t have the right to be a woman at all.”

Li Hongmei did not care about her scolding at all. She walked to a remote place and called out fawningly, “Brother… Brother Liu, you called so early. What’s the matter?”

“What’s going on? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?” the other party questioned.

Li Hongmei wanted to cry but had no tears. She said, “Brother… Brother Liu, I was sleeping. It’s still so early. I usually sleep until I wake up naturally.”

Brother Liu did not pursue the matter. Instead, he said seriously, “Hurry up and do what I told you. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”

“Alright, alright, I’ll do my best!” Li Hongmei nodded and replied, “But, Brother Liu, this… won’t be traced back to me?”

She wasn’t a fool. If she did this personally, wouldn’t it be traced back to her?

However, now that she was being controlled, she had no choice but to follow orders.

If there was a cure for regret in this world, she would definitely not get to know this Brother Liu.

After that, it was unknown what Brother Liu said, but Li Hongmei’s face became paler and paler. Her lips trembled as she stammered, “Brother Liu, do we have to do this? This affects human life! I… I don’t dare!”

With that, she looked like she was about to cry.

Brother Liu sneered and said, “Hmph, Li Hongmei, at this point, we’re in the same boat. If you want to keep your life, you have to do it even if you can’t!”

Li Hongmei replied with tears in her eyes, “Okay, I’ll do it. I’ll do it, alright? But after this is done, you have to let me go!”
