Mingyao opens her eyes, gets out of bed and opens the curtains.
Today is a cloudy day, the sky is gloomy, and the clouds are darkening, as if it is going to rain. There is no way to tell what time it is through the sun.
Mingyao lay back on the bed and ate a handful of nuts.
Tan Heyu didn't know where he was, hoping that there would be a car accident outside.
Although trapped here, Mingyao is not very anxious. If you disappear inexplicably, someone will definitely look for you. It's just a matter of how long it takes to get out.
But, it’s so boring to stay here...
Suddenly, the tips of her ears twitched, as if she heard movement coming from the door downstairs.
At first she thought it was Tan Heyu who was back, but then the rustling sound at the door continued for a long time, and Mingyao realized that something was wrong. Tan Heyu had the key, so he couldn't have lingered for so long.
Mingyao's heart was beating fast. She got off the bed, walked barefoot to the bedroom door and put her ears to it to listen to what was going on below.
With a "Boom--", the door below was opened.
Steady footsteps sounded, getting closer and closer to her, Mingyao bit her lip gently with her teeth.
The footsteps stopped, and then the bedroom door was lightly knocked twice. Mingyao pursed her lips, clenched her little hands, and even stopped breathing for a moment.
"...Mingyao?"
A clear and soothing male voice sounded, and Mingyao suddenly raised her eyes, her almond-shaped eyes filled with water.
"elder brother......"
There was silence outside the door for a moment, and the handle was turned. After several twists, it did not open.
"Stand away..." The voice of the man outside the door came in slowly.
Mingyao quickly ran to the window.
There was a loud "bang" and the door was kicked open.
Mingyao's eyes widened in shock. This door was made of solid wood and could be opened so easily. Did Wen Jing really not practice any internal skills secretly?
The man walked in. The collar of his white shirt was half unbuttoned and the sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. He looked a little more casual and unruly than usual.
Wen Jing's eyes swept over Mingyao's body several times, and saw that there was nothing unusual about her body, and her tight shoulder lines relaxed slightly.
Mingyao trotted forward and threw herself into his arms. The fresh smell of grass and trees came to her, and the grievances and fears in her heart surged out. Her warm tears fell and seeped into his shirt bit by bit.
Wen Jing hugged her with one hand, gently caressed her thin back with the other, and pursed her lips slightly.
"do not Cry……"
Mingyao wiped her tears on his shirt and pushed him away hard.
"Don't you want to see me?!"
She stopped looking at him and turned around to find her shoes and put them on.
Wen Jing was unusually at a loss.
It was the first time he saw Mingyao getting into trouble with him.
Indeed, it was him who never sorted out his thoughts and chose to escape...
Mingyao put on her shoes and walked downstairs with a flat mouth. Wen Jing followed her silently.
This villa was in a remote suburb and there was no way to take a taxi. Mingyao had no choice but to sit in the car driven by Wen Jing.
The car was driving towards the city center. Wen Jing wanted to go back to the apartment, but Mingyao beside him suddenly said:
"I want to go back to Tan's house."
Wen Jing turned around and saw that Mingyao turned her head to look out the window, leaving him with only the back of her head.
He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
The car drove towards Tan's house in silence.
After arriving at the place, Mingyao greeted him and opened the door and got out of the car.
Even though she has a soft temper, Tan Heyu made her angry. She must tell Tan Kang and Su Xinyi, otherwise there is no telling what else he will do.
Mingyao was afraid that telling Tan Kang directly would make him mad, so it was better to reveal it to Su Xinyi first...
Wen Jing sat in the car, looking at her back as she left without looking back, her eyelashes lowered, and she was lost in chaotic thoughts.
After Mingyao returned to Tan's house, she first looked for Su Xinyi, but she didn't see her. She might have gone shopping. She turned around and went back to her bedroom. As soon as she opened the door, her eyes widened in disbelief——
A man in black was sitting in front of her dressing table, holding a cigarette in his slender fingers and staring at her sharply. It was Tan Heyu.
When the villa door was broken open, he received a notification on his mobile phone.
He originally didn't want to keep Mingyao locked up, but he just hadn't figured out how to get along with her for the time being, and he didn't want to see her stay with the dummy Wen Jing.
When I saw Wen Jing's face on the surveillance camera, I became furious. It was too late to go back. I didn't expect Mingyao to come back on her own...
Mingyao took a breath and turned around to leave. He grabbed her arm before taking two steps, twisted her hands, pulled her back into the room and threw her on the bed.
He looked at Mingyao condescendingly, with an obvious coldness in his eyes.
"He Yu...we won't have a good outcome..." Mingyao swallowed and tried to convince him.
"What is the result? The process is the most important." He sneered, "It seems that my attitude towards you is still too good."
He raised his hands and took off his coat, wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt underneath. Thin muscles covered his body, and the lines were clearly outlined.
Mingyao secretly cursed this lunatic, rolled around on the bed, and tried to get off the other side, but he grabbed her ankle and dragged her back.
During the tug, Mingyao's dress was swung open, half of her shoulders were exposed, and her collarbone was glowing with luster. Tan Heyu's eyes were focused on it, and his breathing suddenly became heavier.
Just as he was about to reach out and pull off her skirt, a roar came from the door:
"What are you doing-?!"
The two turned to look, and Tan Kang's furious old face and Su Xinyi's disbelieving face came into view.
Tan Kang pulled Tan Heyu away and looked around, but couldn't find anything that could be used to hit him. He angrily raised his hand and slapped him on the face.
Tan Heyu staggered after being beaten, and his cheek suddenly swelled with blood stains. He pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek, sneered, and left the room without saying a word.
Mingyao lowered his head, his hair falling down to cover the expression on his face, tears fell heavily, and he fell into Su Xinyi's arms and sobbed softly.
Tan Kang is a traditional male chauvinist. Although Mingyao and Tan Heyu are not related by blood, in his eyes, they are no different from siblings. If the two people are related, he feels that this is ruining the reputation of the Tan family and being in the upper class. It’s embarrassing in the circle.
In order to prevent a scandal from happening, he quickly applied for Tan Heyu's exchange quota at a foreign university and froze his card, allowing him to pay only fixed expenses every month.
As for Mingyao, he seemed even more indifferent. He judged that the probability of Mingyao and Wen Jing getting married was not very high, and even if it could happen, it would have to wait until nearly ten years.
In order to make Tan Heyu give up as soon as possible and to bring more benefits to the Tan family, he decided to arrange several marriage partners for Mingyao...
