BXBX NOVEL Chapter 254: 254: She Became a Pawn_1
Then I picked up a rope, tied Ye Mengyan’s hands up, and dragged her into the lower cabin.
I unlocked the phone using her fingerprint.
Actually, I didn’t originally intend to kidnap Ye Mengyan.
She wasn’t part of my plan at all.
However, since she came to me, I had to change my tactics.
After unlocking it.
I began to flip through Ye Mengyan’s phone.
What shocked me was that Ye Mengyan had kept a lot of text exchanges with Gu Yuanzhou.
I read them one by one.
Most were messages from Ye Mengyan, whereas Gu Yuanzhou replied sparingly.
Mostly, Ye Mengyan asked Gu Yuanzhou to meet her, and Gu Yuanzhou mostly responded that he was not free…
From the texts, their relationship seemed very simple, without much intimacy, not even a couple.
No wonder Ye Mengyan was so angry earlier.
However, I was still greatly shocked by a call record I found next.
It was the night of the fire…
She had called Gu Yuanzhou three times.
Each call lasted only a few seconds, which seemed to prove directly that Gu Yuanzhou left in a hurry that night to meet Ye Mengyan.
The hard evidence here made me shiver.
This indicates two possibilities, Gu Yuanzhou likely participated in the arson, and if not, it would be strange for him to leave right before the fire started.
Maybe this was all plotted by him and Ye Mengyan.
The more I thought about it, the worse I felt, and the darker my heart became.
Anger, heartache…
This kind of heartache will never heal after a lifetime.
It’s as painful as a knife being turned in my heart…
I must make Gu Yuanzhou pay!
After a while, the ringing of the phone brought me back to reality.
It was Gu Yuanzhou calling back.
I did not answer!
After the call went unanswered for a while, Gu Yuanzhou sent a text message.
“My phone had a small glitch earlier, just got it fixed. You rang earlier, what’s up?”
As Ye Mengyan was able to impersonate Gu Yuanzhou to trick me, so I could impersonate Ye Mengyan to trick Gu Yuanzhou too.
This was merely returning the favor—a tit for tat!
I sat down on the sofa with the phone in hand.
Looking at the starry sky, I began to type a line of text on the screen.
“Brother Gu, I’m feeling unwell, could you come and get me?”
As I thought about it, I deleted it.
Why trick Gu Yuanzhou to the beach? To kill them?
While my heart was ablaze with anger, killing Gu Yuanzhou would not quench it.
This was not what I wanted!
After much deliberation, I still made a call to Shen Yishu using the phone.
Shen Yishu indeed took my suggestion seriously. He was unwilling to answer Ye Mengyan’s call, so I had to call him three times, and he still would not answer.
In the end, I had to send him a picture before he finally called back.
I told him I was in the waters of the Star Gazing Pier, and to think of a way…
In fact, Shen Yishu was not incapable.
Half an hour later, Shen Yishu arrived. He brought a friend who was an amateur diving enthusiast.
The friend drove a speedboat, quickly found us on the water, and then towed the yacht back to the shore.
At one o’clock in the morning, after Shen Yishu sent his friend away.
I took him back to the lower cabin, where Ye Mengyan, still drugged, lay sprawled on the floor.
When Shen Yishu saw Ye Mengyan, his face was full of surprise,
“How did she end up here?”
I briefly described the events of the night, then showed him the call records between Ye Mengyan and Gu Yuanzhou on the day of the fire.
Shen Yishu shook his head disbelievingly, his eyes filled with shock and heartache,
“I really didn’t think she was that kind of person. She disappoints me so much.”
“Maybe it’s painful, but it’s better to see a person’s true nature sooner rather than deceive yourself!”
I spoke with deep feeling, reality is ugly, but it’s the truth. Waking up sooner can prevent bigger mistakes.
Shen Yishu sighed,
“Miss Song, whatever Ye Mengyan has done, she brought it upon herself, it has nothing to do with anyone else. Today, I just came to help you tow the boat, I didn’t see anything else.”
With that, Shen Yishu seemed to have let go of his feelings for Ye Mengyan.
I didn’t say much either, the fewer people involved, the better.
To prevent him from becoming a target for Gu Yuanzhou in the future.
However, now that the boat was ashore, I had to deal with the matter again.
I figured out a way to settle Ye Mengyan myself.
Then I rushed back to Xishan Residence late into the night.
I had a restless sleep that night. In my dreams, I was choked by Gu Yuanzhou, I was unable to break free, I could only struggle futilely.
In the pitch-dark night, Gu Yuanzhou’s dark eyes were filled with fierce light.
I clutched my blanket tightly, trembling all over.
“Ayun!”
A gentle voice echoed by my ear.
I opened my eyes then.
It was broad daylight outside, sunlight streamed in through the window and in the warm glow, Ding Yinuo was looking at me tenderly.
He was wiping the sweat off my forehead with a tissue, “Ayun, you had another nightmare!”
Ding Yinuo was in a white shirt, the button at the collar was unbuttoned, and wet hair straggly covered his eyebrows, his cheeks still moist.
Based on his appearance, he probably rushed in as soon as he had finished his shower after hearing my voice.
“Oh, how did you know I had a nightmare?”
“You were shouting!”
“What was I shouting about?”
“You said you wanted to kill someone, you looked really fierce!”
He sat down on the edge of the bed, his big hand lightly stroking my cheek, his voice as soft as cotton wool.
“Did I? Who I wanted to kill?”
“Forget it, maybe I heard wrong.”
“Yinuo, tell me, who was I to kill?”
“Gu Yuanzhou! Ahem…you said you wanted to kill Gu Yuanzhou!”
He repeated in the same tone I had used in my dream, and I couldn’t help but laugh weakly. I pushed his hand away, got out from the bed, and held my head with both hands.
“Yinuo, I have to go out for a bit!”
“I called you many times yesterday, but you didn’t answer!”
I walked into the bathroom, and Ding Yinuo followed me in. He embraced me from behind.
“Ayun, I couldn’t reach you yesterday, I was really worried, I was afraid something happened to you…”
I was still wearing the red dress from last night, and Ding Yinuo held me from behind.
His shirt buttons weren’t done up, his solid chest firmly against my back. I felt the passion and vigorous energy of a grown man.
That heat, that fullness…
I took a deep breath, slightly bent over, and washed my face with cold water.
I had been fighting Gu Yuanzhou all night in my dream, and I was exhausted.
“Yinuo, last night, I dropped my phone in the water, it’s not working anymore…”
“Where did you go last night?”
His fingers gently traced my dress strap, followed by my white shoulders.
Our closeness was so intimate…
