"Why don't you publish an engagement declaration in the newspaper so that your aunt can be at ease? Perhaps this way her body will be able to recover?"
Chu Mengyao shook her head, she did not agree with this idea. This might solve the problem for a while, but she was afraid that it would become even more troublesome in the future.
"Will you never forgive me?" Wu Haoran's expression was a bit heavy, as he looked straight at Chu Mengyao.
She had asked herself this question before, but when she thought about it, she felt as if her heart would drop at any moment. She didn't know when it had disappeared. Initially, he hated and resented Wu Haoran's betrayal, but now, it was as if he was looking at a stranger, and the waves in his heart had disappeared. Whether this was a relief or a loss of love, he didn't want to know.
"Now that aunt's body is like this, you should think about it a little more." Wu Haoran's tone was full of sincerity.
"I am very grateful to you for helping me. But you don't need to mention the engagement anymore. Even if it's for my aunt's sake, I won't agree. " Chu Mengyao calmly looked at Wu Haoran.
Hearing her determined rejection, Wu Haoran's face was full of disappointment, "Mengyao, how are you going to get engaged to me?"
Other than the silent Chu Mengyao, who did not know what else to say, her heart was in a mess as there was no way for her to think about it. In front of her, the scene of Fu Yi hugging and kissing with Alice repeated in her mind. She felt like she was going crazy. But now, Wu Haoran was talking about the engagement ceremony again and again, which really annoyed her.
It was impossible for her to be engaged to him. Was there any point in explaining it?
There was no sound from inside the car, which was a bit awkward, but luckily, they quickly arrived at Chu Mengyao's house.
Pushing the car door open, Chu Mengyao walked out. Wu Haoran actually also walked down from the carriage, and stopped her in his tracks. He pulled her in with some force, and hugged her tightly, his lips moved closer to her ear as he confessed, "Mengyao, my heart is thumping for you."
Her voice was filled with enticement, the confession was also extremely emotional, but Chu Mengyao just wanted to push it away. Looking up, she saw that Fu Yi was actually standing not far away from him.
Under the street lamp, his expression was calm, but just by looking at his eyes, Chu Mengyao knew that he was angry, and the cold look in his eyes clearly expressed his displeasure.
How would Wu Haoran know why he was stunned? He only saw that she didn't struggle, and was immediately overjoyed. "Mengyao, I'll stay tonight, okay?"
Hearing that Wu Haoran wanted to stay, Chu Mengyao felt extremely disgusted. Other than that, what else was in his mind? With a push, Chu Mengyao pushed Wu Haoran away.
Unconsciously, Chu Mengyao looked at Fu Yi. His eyes were on her the entire time, carrying a measuring gaze and a questioning gaze. Under his gaze, Chu Mengyao actually started to feel guilty. She felt that she was just like a woman discovered by her husband, extremely embarrassed.
Seeing Chu Mengyao's abnormal reaction, Wu Haoran looked in the direction of her gaze and discovered that he was extremely shocked. Then, he looked at Chu Mengyao, but she had already turned around and quickly returned home.
At this moment, it was just the two of them.
Wu Haoran turned and looked at Fu Yi again, sizing him up with a picky gaze. Fu Yi had a well-defined and handsome face, but his serious expression made him look even more dignified and aloof. He was tall and slender, and his simple shirt and trousers gave him an air of nobility and elegance.
The luxurious carriage behind him had an unassuming sense of restraint. Wu Haoran had never seen many powerful vehicles like those in H City, and none of them were not rich people.
Although Wu Haoran did not know who this man was, he knew nothing. He could tell that this man was definitely not an ordinary person from the looks of things, and his background might even be stronger than his own.
The loss he suffered in the Earthly Paradise not long ago had given him some memory. He wouldn't easily make a move before he had a clear understanding of the origins of this place. Besides, if he were to face it head on, he would definitely be injured. The best method was to use wits. Chu Mengyao, I have to win!
Without wasting anymore time, Wu Haoran drove away.
Chu Mengyao sat in her own room, she was not sleepy at all, and walked back and forth a few times. In the end, she couldn't help but open a corner of the curtain, and sneaked a peek outside.
Passing through the courtyard, she easily saw Fu Yi's figure. He was leaning on the side of the car, and from the looks of it, he seemed to be smoking.
Seeing that he was right outside her own door, Chu Mengyao had the urge to see him. But when she thought about the scene of him embracing and kissing with Alice, she felt like she couldn't breathe, as if she was going to die.
Why did he want to lie to himself? Without a girlfriend, what was that Alice? The moment Alice entered the room, she embraced him and kissed him. It was obvious that she was very familiar with him. No wonder he was so proficient in bed. He must have done this to Alice quite a few times in the past.
When she thought of Fu Yi and Alice rolling around on the bed, Chu Mengyao felt that she was going to die soon. She liked him so much, why would he lie to her?
If he were to tell her the truth, no matter how much she liked him, she would never be a "third party". This feeling of love and shame made Chu Mengyao collapse all of a sudden, and her tears couldn't help but flow down.
Aunt Wang originally wanted Chu Mengyao to listen to the phone, but no one opened the door, and sounds of crying could be heard from inside the room. Aunt Wang's heart tensed up, and directly pushed open the door.
Aunt Wang was puzzled when she saw that Chu Mengyao was leaning against the wall and sitting under the window. She had been back for a while, but her clothes hadn't changed. She covered her face with her hands and let out a sad cry.
"Eldest Miss, what has made you so sad?" Aunt Wang was a little surprised, she paused for a bit, then said, "Chief Chu's matter was just an accident, don't think too much about it."
Chu Zhiruo did not want to see him fall, but Chu Mengyao did not need to be too guilty, it was just an accident.
With someone coming in, Chu Mengyao felt too embarrassed to cry anymore. She went to the bathroom to wipe her eyes and then wash her face before walking out.
Only then did Aunt Wang open her mouth and said, "Young miss, just now, there was a call for you from a person called Teacher Meng."
Chu Mengyao was stunned, "Teacher Meng?"
"The one who lent the phone to you last time, Mr. Meng Yiran." Aunt Wang immediately reminded Chu Mengyao. Although she felt it was a little strange that Teacher Meng would call Chu Mengyao so late at night, she still came up to talk to him.
"Teacher Meng said that he has urgent matters to discuss with you. Please take his call." The Aunt Wang added.
Chu Mengyao immediately remembered who Meng Yiran was. Seeing that his car was still parked at the side of the road, she spoke quickly, "Tell Teacher Meng that I have already rested. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Aunt Wang nodded and left the room.
Very quickly, Aunt Wang returned. She looked at Chu Mengyao with a little difficulty, "Miss, Teacher Meng said that you must accept this phone call, otherwise, he would come straight to our house."
Chu Mengyao was annoyed, this man was too tyrannical. However, being angry at Aunt Wang was not something that could be done. Chu Mengyao controlled her temper and said, "Let him call my cell phone."
With that, Chu Mengyao turned on her phone, and before half a minute had passed, he called.
Chu Mengyao could even memorize his number backwards. Just looking at the familiar number, she felt as if her heart was being grabbed by a pair of big hands.
The bell rang for a long time, but she did not have the courage to answer it.
The bell kept ringing, but Chu Mengyao was ultimately defeated by his persistence and pressed the answer button.
"Come out and see me." He was still that domineering. Hearing his familiar voice, Chu Mengyao's tears quietly fell.
She was unable to speak, unable to say a single word smoothly.
The silence on the other end of the phone made Fu Yi a little impatient, but he had no choice but to suppress his temper and speak into the phone with a gentleness he had never felt before, "Come out, I'm still in the same position as before."
There was still silence.
"When are you coming out?" There was a hint of displeasure in his last words.
With great effort, Chu Mengyao tried to control her emotions, but her voice was low and fast, "I won't go out to see you. Go back!"
"If you don't come out, I'll just go in." His tone had clearly become unyielding. This was his usual style.
"I have nothing to do with you, do whatever you want." Chu Mengyao hung up the phone.
His phone kept on ringing, Chu Mengyao took his phone and turned it silent. Afterwards, she didn't change into pajamas anymore and directly laid down on the bed to cover herself with the blanket. However, her mind was filled with him, making her unable to fall asleep.
She tossed and turned on the bed, waiting for ten minutes. Aunt Wang knocked on the door again, "Miss, are you asleep?"
"Unplug the phone tonight. You should get some rest." Chu Mengyao felt a burst of irritation in her heart. A man with a girlfriend had come looking for her. Was she that frivolous in his eyes, willing to be his mistress?
Perhaps she had caused him to misunderstand when she took the initiative to have a relationship with him? Then let's correct this mistake now.
"Miss, it's not about the phone." Aunt Wang's voice was somewhat hesitant.
But very quickly, Aunt Wang's voice became sharp, "Sir, you can't come up. Our young lady has already rested, mister … "
Before Chu Mengyao could react, the familiar figure appeared in her room. Aunt Wang also quickly rushed in and stood in front of him.
Even Uncle Huang and the other villa staff entered the room and stood in front of Chu Mengyao.
When Uncle Huang, who was originally approaching in full fury, saw that it was actually Fu Yi, he could not help but turn around and look at Chu Mengyao.
If this person really was the lady's boyfriend, then he would be in big trouble. He had firmly remembered what the traffic police had said. It was common for people in love to be angry. Could it be that there was a small problem with their relationship?
