Chapter 78 - Mother was in danger

Every time, Aunt Mao would personally watch He Yi drink the water in the cup.

And after drinking the water, He Yi’s weakness would worsen. She concluded that there was something wrong with the water.

He Yi thought of an idea. After drinking the water, she requested to go to the bathroom. But Aunt Mao was a smart person. She seemed to have been prepared for this.

“You can’t go to the washroom after drinking the water.” Aunt Mao’s eyes were full of shrewdness. She sneered and said, “Wait for half an hour!”

Aunt Mao understood the trick of drinking the water before going to the washroom and digging her throat to spit it out. This would not fool her.

Once the plan failed, He Yi could only come up with another plan.

She was a person who had escaped death several times in prison, so she was very vigilant. She had thought of all kinds of dangerous situations and had thought of ways to deal with them. For example, the self-defense weapons she carried — pepper spray and taser sticks.

But these things were all in her bag, and they were taken away after she was kidnapped.

But He Yi still had a trick up her sleeve — an anesthetic needle hidden in her bracelet!

The Cartier’s bracelet was expensive and custom-made. Except for the special key, which was extremely difficult to remove, she had specially customized this bracelet with an anesthetic needle in it, just in case.

The dose of the anesthetic needle was only enough to take down an adult. She had to hit it with one try!

Yun City is splendid and magnificent.

Yi Liang chose to sit alone and drink, his heart filled with sorrow.

This villa was the wedding house that he had prepared. It was completely decorated according to He Yi and the children’s preferences, making it a happy home for the four of them.

However, He Yi was missing and Wan Wan was taken away by Chu Tianyi. He couldn’t do anything for the time being. Even if he was burning with anxiety, it was useless because he didn’t have any evidence to prove that He Yi’s disappearance was related to Chu Tianyi.

Closing his eyes slightly, Yi Liang thought hard about his countermeasures.

He Yi was such a smart woman. After she was robbed, she should have thought of a way to save herself or leave some clues behind. If there were some clues, at least he could find them.

The phone vibrated. Yi Liang opened his eyes and saw Qin Weixian’s number on it. He suddenly felt refreshed. He pushed the wine glass aside and picked up the phone.

“Young master, I just found out that Chu Tianyi booked two tickets for tonight at nine o’clock and is preparing to fly to Cangzhou.” Qin Weixian paused, he continued, “According to our investigation, his hometown is located in a remote mountain village in Cangzhou. The road conditions are not good. It will take at least three to four hours to get off the plane.”

“Two tickets!” Yi Liangze’s heart skipped a beat as if he had guessed a possibility. “Is it him and Wan Wan?”

“Yes!” Qin Weixian answered.

“Keep an eye on him. After making sure that he and Wan Wan Board the plane, I will also take a private plane to Cangzhou.” Yi Liangze decided.

In the intensive care unit of the city central hospital.

Su Anqi was crying and refusing to eat. “Auntie has already dealt with that b*tch, He Yi. Why do you have to follow her all the way there? I can’t even eat or sleep without you!”

Chu Tianyi patiently fed Su Anqi bird’s nest porridge and explained, “I didn’t come here for He Yi, but to get rid of Yi Liangze! His influence in Yun City is too great. I have to think of a way to lure him out of the city so that I can make a move!”

“Just let someone else do it, do you have to do it yourself?” Su Anqi swallowed a mouthful of porridge and continued to talk about her dissatisfaction and suspicion. “It’s so far away, and I can’t follow you personally. What if that b*itch, He Yi, takes the opportunity to seduce you again?”

“Bang!” Chu Tianyi put down the bowl of porridge. His movements were a little loud, and the sound startled Su Anqi’s chattering. However, he acted as if he didn’t know anything. He picked up a tissue and gently wiped the corner of her lips. “Don’t think too much. Rest quietly and recuperate. You’ll slowly recover. If I still have feelings for He Yi, I wouldn’t have sent her to prison in the first place. The main reason I went out this time was to get rid of Yi Liangze. If I get rid of him, He Yi won’t be able to turn over a new leaf for the rest of her life.”

Su Anqi mumbled, “Really? Swear that you don’t love her at all?”

Chu Tianyi pondered for a moment as if he had made up his mind. Finally, he said, “I swear...” just as he said this, he suddenly realized that Wan Wan had sneaked in. His shock was no small matter. He cried out involuntarily, “Wan Wan!”

Wan Wan hid in the corner beside the bed, like a timid stray dog. Her big black grape-like eyes were filled with fear as she stared at Chu Tianyi without blinking.

Chu Tianyi quickly stood up and was about to walk toward her. But just as he took a step, Wan Wan jumped away and avoided him from a distance.

“Dad, aren’t you going to pick mom up?” Wan Wan’s voice was trembling. “If you don’t pick her up, that house will no longer belong to you.”

Chu Tianyi didn’t understand what Wan Wan meant. He thought that it was just a child’s nonsense and didn’t take it to heart. His tone became much gentler and he gently comforted her, “Wan Wan, come here!”

“No!” Wan Wan’s tears flowed down and she choked with grief. “Why can’t you be nicer to Mommy...”

Why can’t Daddy be nice to Mommy like Uncle Yi? Dad only loved Auntie Su, the evil witch. This was the saddest thing for Wan Wan.

Chu Tianyi pursed his thin lips, unable to answer Wan Wan’s question.

“Tianyi, look at this girl...” Su Anqi was so angry that she pressed one hand on her ribs, she angrily shouted, “I’m not dead yet, and she already thinks I’m not around! How dare she say such things in front of me? Otherwise, I’ll teach her a lesson, and she’ll then know who the mistress of this family is.”

Chu Tianyi’s handsome face quickly turned frosty, without any warmth at all. “Wan Wan, accompany Daddy to the airport now!”

“No!” Wan Wan shook her head fiercely. She was disappointed and sad. “Mommy is in danger, I’m going to tell Uncle Yi!”

After saying that, she ran away.

It was easy to capture Wan Wan, but Chu Tianyi was helpless. “Even you have changed your heart. Wan Wan, you mustn’t be like your mother. You disappointed me too much!”

He Yi was very cooperative. After dinner, she lay quietly. She was so quiet that people almost forgot about her existence.

The people in the car also relaxed. After all, she was only a woman and had been drugged. She did not have the slightest ability to resist. A few men chatted about dirty jokes to pass the time. From time to time, they would laugh lewdly. They would occasionally glance at He Yi, who was sleeping on the bed behind them. Even though they were drooling with greed, they did not dare to act rashly.

Of course, they knew that Aunt Mao was following the car to prevent them from getting into trouble!

Aunt Mao was guarding He Yi, so it wasn’t convenient for her to interrupt the explicit topic at this time. She also fell asleep.

When Aunt Mao closed her eyes, He Yi opened hers.

It was already past eight o’clock in the evening. The car drove smoothly on the highway. No one knew how many miles it had traveled, but it was getting further and further away from Yun City.

He Yi took a deep breath, slowly raised one hand, and gradually put it on the wrist of the other hand – the wrist that was wearing the Cartier bracelet.

She touched the pattern of the mechanism, gently twisted it, and with a low, inaudible sound, slowly pulled out the anesthetic needle hidden in the bracelet.
