Meng Haotian also didn’t have enough evidence to prove that Meng Nianyao had been scheming against him during this period of time and was planning to take revenge on him. Before the information he wanted could arrive, he had to continue to soothe Meng Nianyao. With a woman who was loyal to him, he could do many things.
Meng Haotian softened his expression and said in a gentler voice, “I didn’t mean anything else. Nianyao, don’t be angry. Didn’t you rent a house? Tell me the address and I’ll make dinner for you, okay?”
Meng Nianyao paused for a moment. She hadn’t told Meng Haotian where she lived before, so he probably got suspicious. But fortunately, she had rented a house in advance.
Meng Nianyao told him the address of her rented apartment with a straight face.
After a while, the car arrived. Meng Haotian left the driver’s seat and walked to the front passenger seat. He opened the door and said, “Alright, don’t be angry anymore. Let me carry you.” This time, he didn’t hug Meng Nianyao directly but asked her permission first. It was obviously a gentlemanly move, but Meng Nianyao felt that something was wrong.
However, she didn’t refuse. She said,” Okay.” Meng Haotian carried her out of the car and headed to the rented apartment. On the way, he stopped and asked, “Nianyao, are you rejecting me now?”
Meng Nianyao was stunned. Meng Haotian continued, “Human body language doesn’t lie. Nianyao, do you really still love me?”
At this point, Meng Nianyao was certain that Meng Haotian didn’t believe her, and that he was planning to do something to her.
Meng Nianyao started to struggle. “1 don’t understand what you’re saying.
Meng Haotian, let me go!”
“Let you go?” Meng Haotian had already walked to the door of Meng Nianyao’s rented apartment.”Nianyao, as long as you’re not lying to me, you don’t have to be afraid.”
“Alright, now tell me, where is the key to the house?” Meng Haotian stared into Meng Nianyao’s eyes.
“1 don’t have the key. Let go of me! Meng Haotian, if you don’t let go of me, I’ll scream for help!” The disparity in physical strength between men and women could not be changed. No matter how Meng Nianyao struggled, she could not break free from Meng Haotian’s grip.
“Help…” Meng Nianyao had just shouted when Meng Haotian covered her mouth. He put her on the ground and raised his hand to chop the back of her neck.
Meng Nianyao fell into darkness.
Meng Haotian caught her and looked down at her. “Nianyao, why can’t you ever learn?”
Then, he took out the keys from Meng Nianyao’s bag and opened the door of the rented apartment.
Meng Haotian placed Meng Nianyao on the sofa in the living room, looked around, and turned to enter the bedroom. A moment later, he walked out. There was nothing here, not even a change of clothes in the wardrobe. Meng Nianyao had lied to him. After realizing this, Meng Haotian’s face darkened to the extreme. He walked to Meng Nianyao’s side and squatted down. Looking at her face, he revealed a strange smile. “Nianyao, since you dare to lie to me, don’t blame me for being heartless.”
When Meng Nianyao woke up, she stared blankly at the mottled ceiling for a few seconds before her mind gradually cleared. What was this place? Where was Meng Haotian?
Meng Nianyao immediately got up. When she got up, her neck and shoulder were in pain, as if she had broken a bone. Looking around, Meng Nianyao recognized that this was her rented apartment. The entire house was quiet. Where was Meng Haotian? Where did he go?
Meng Nianyao knew Meng Haotian well. She knew that he wouldn’t just let her go, and she knew that he wanted her dead. No, she couldn’t just sit there and wait for death.
Meng Nianyao got up and walked to the door step by step, enduring the pain. She finally reached the door, but no matter how hard she twisted or pulled, the door wouldn’t budge. This was the fifth floor, so other than leaving through the front door, there was no other way to leave apart from the window.
Meng Nianyao started to panic, and she was even on the verge of breaking down. Just as she was about to find something to smash the door, the door was pushed open. Meng Haotian was wearing a shirt and trousers, looking like an elite. He smiled at her and said, “1 just went downstairs to get something, and you woke up?”
Meng Nianyao subconsciously looked at Meng Haotian’s hand. He was holding a camera.
“What are you doing?” Meng Nianyao stared at Meng Haotian warily. Suddenly, she swayed and her vision blurred.
“What do you think?” Meng Haotian smiled. Nianyao, let me tell you something. When Jiang Shanshan told you that we had a video of you, she was actually lying to you. You were raped that night, but we don’t have any video, but now…l really want to take a video to keep as a memento..”
