Chapter 701: You Said You Would Listen To Me tonight.”
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Listening to Su Qingsang’s voice outside, Shi Mengwan, who had already changed into her national costume, didn’t have the courage to walk out.
She never expected to meet Su Qingsang because she was in a bad mood and was forced by Zhan Haoze to go to the night market in Ancient City.
She didn’t go out. The shop assistant even began to ask her if she was not feeling well. Could she be comfortable?
Just yesterday, she heard Zhan Haoze and Chen Feifei talking on the phone.
Chen Yongchang had already been sent on the plane by Zhan Haoze. Along with him was Chen Yongchang’s illegitimate son outside.
If it weren’t for Zhan Haoze, it wouldn’t have been so easy to achieve such a feat.
However, that illegitimate son had run away after getting off the plane. Chen Yongchang was the most important surveillance target, but that illegitimate child wasn’t.
Chen Feifei became a little nervous after he ran away like this. She was more or less afraid that he would return to Lin City to take revenge on her. Her position wasn’t stable now, so if that person wanted to do something, although she wouldn’t be unable to resist, he could still be considered a hindrance.
However, to Zhan Haoze, everything was under his control. Therefore, he told Chen Feifei not to think too much. That illegitimate child wouldn’t be able to run far. He would capture him and lock him up with Chen Yongchang, according to the original plan.
In Su Qingsang’s heart, this was just a phone call under a transaction. It couldn’t be any more normal.
But in Shi Mengwan’s case, it was completely different. It was just making what she had seen turn into what she had heard.
Because of this reason, whether it was eating roasted whole lamb last night or returning to Cherry Blossom Villa at night, she didn’t treat Zhan Haoze well.
At night, she didn’t even allow Zhan Haoze to touch her. Now, if he touched her again, she would have a huge reaction.
Due to the shame of being a mistress, her resentment towards Zhan Haoze for putting her in this situation was very obvious. Therefore, she didn’t want to bother with Zhan Haoze at all.
Including today, she was forced by Zhan Haoze to go shopping. If she could, she just wanted to go back to Lin City as soon as possible.
However, in this situation, let alone going back to Lin City, she didn’t even know if she could walk out of this small fitting room.
However, at this moment, Zhan Haoze entered the door. She saw a faint smile on his face as he stared at the embarrassed and sheepish look on her face.
“Are you alright?”
Alright? That’s right. In his heart, did other people’s feelings matter?
She was furious. However, Zhan Haoze had the ability to take advantage of her at this moment. She was furious and reached out to push him without thinking.
He moved forward while she retreated until there was no way out.
“Are you afraid of being heard?”
“Tell me, what if I take you here?”
“You look very beautiful in this outfit.”
“Are you afraid?”
“If you don’t want me to take you here, then beg me.”
He had gone too far towards her, and the words he said sounded like those of a bastard.
“Zhan Haoze, don’t go too far.”
She hadn’t forgotten the explosive dressing-up incident last year. She absolutely, absolutely didn’t want to become the female lead of such an incident.
“Your pleas have no sincerity at all.”
“If you listen to me tonight, I’ll let you go. How about that?”
Shi Mengwan had no choice but to lower her head. “I beg you.”
In the end, Shi Mengwan was carried out of the fitting room by Zhan Haoze. He even “kindly” covered her face so that she wouldn’t be seen by Huo Jinyao or Su Qingsang.
However, the words “remember, you owe me again” entered Shi Mengwan’s ears.
This shameless bastard. If it wasn’t for him, how could she have fallen into such a situation?
Owe him again? How thick-skinned was this person?
After leaving the ancient city, Shi Mengwan wasn’t in the mood to go shopping anymore. She expressed that she wanted to go back.
Zhan Haoze didn’t argue with her and brought her into the car. The mighty motorcade once again drove from the parking lot of the Ancient City to the Cherry Blossom Villa.
That night, Shi Mengwan, who had taken a shower, went to bed early. She wanted to avoid Zhan Haoze. Before he could finish his work, she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
She thought that Zhan Haoze would let her go if she fell asleep. But reality proved that she was too naive.
When she was in a daze, she felt someone pressing on her body. That feeling reminded her of a big wolf dog that she had raised when she was young. It always liked to pounce on her like this.
“Big Huang, get down,” she said in a daze. She didn’t forget to reach out and push “Big Huang” away.
This time, “Big Huang”was very persistent. She pushed it a few times but couldn’t push it down. Shi Mengwan called out again.
“Big Huang, stop messing around.”
Zhan Haoze supported his body with one hand and propped himself up to look at Shi Mengwan. She was really deep asleep. There was still Big Huang?
The name of an animal made Zhan Haoze’s face darken. He stopped hesitating and started to take off Shi Mengwan’s clothes.
The cloakroom naturally had pajamas of all kinds. Shi Mengwan chose the most conservative one. The cotton pajamas with a round collar covered her whole body.
But just like that, Zhan Haoze could still see some sense of her sultriness.
Shi Mengwan had an extremely seductive face, but it didn’t appear so glamorous. Instead, she looked more beautiful the more he looked at her.
It was naturally troublesome to take off this set of pajamas. Zhan Haoze tried, but Shi Mengwan slept very soundly. His hands didn’t stop moving, and just as he was about to lift the shirt up and help her take it off completely.., she once again pushed him down, as if he was “Big Huang”.
Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes, propped up his arms and stared at Shi Mengwan’s hands for a long time. Finally, he got up and left.
But he didn’t leave. Instead, he went to get a pair of scissors.
The heater was turned on in the room, and he wasn’t worried that Shi Mengwan would catch a cold. Zhan Haoze used the scissors to cut the comfortable but expensive pajamas just like that.
The clothes were cut open inch by inch, and the scenery that was wrapped tightly before was naturally exposed now.
Barely touching Shi Mengwan’s skin, he cut carefully. Putting down the scissors, he continued to take off her pants.
This was much easier. But when he completely took them off, Shi Mengwan also woke up.
She dreamt that the dog refused to get off her body, and even pulled up her quilt. At first, she tried to reach out to pull, but later found that she couldn’t stop it.
When she realized that it wasn’t Big Huang pulling her pants to wake up, she realized that she was almost naked except for a pair of underpants.
Her face turned red. She instantly woke up and stared at the culprit.
“Zhan Haoze, what are you doing?”
Zhan Haoze was going to pull the last piece of cloth, but he didn’t expect Shi Mengwan to wake up.
When he met her furious and angry eyes, he pushed his body up again and moved closer to her.
His breath touched her cheek. He kissed her lips and moved his kiss to her earlobe.
He bit the little jade bead. “What do you think I’m doing?”
“You, get down.”
“Get down?” Zhan Haoze chuckled. His big hand picked up Shi Mengwan’s black hair that was scattered on the pillow and sniffed it. “You don’t have a good memory. Do you want me to remind you what you promised me?”
“What?”
Shi Mengwan woke up, but she was still in a daze. She didn’t understand what he meant at all.
“Previously in Ancient City, you promised me that when you came back, you would listen to everything I said.”
Shi Mengwan’s expression froze, and she suddenly reacted. The Zhan Haoze in front of her was half-lying there and supporting his body with one hand. The burning gaze he gave her was like that of a wolf.
Why didn’t this Zhan Haoze scare her?
She wanted to get off the bed without thinking. Zhan Haoze easily wrapped his arms around her waist. “What? You want to break your promise?”
Shi Mengwan gulped. She really didn’t know how to respond to that. “You scoundrel.”
In that situation, she had no other choice.
“Scoundrel? Who’s the scoundrel?” Zhan Haoze retracted his arm and she leaned into his body. He had just showered and was only wearing a towel,
Touching his warm chest, Shi Mengwan felt a little thirsty.
“Of, of course it’s you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have –”
She didn’t finish his sentence, but Zhan Haoze could understand what she meant. He chuckled and lifted her chin with his other hand.
“So, you don’t want to admit your debt now?”
Who wanted to admit their debt? Shi Mengwan pushed him, and Zhan Haoze bit her lip.
“It’s fine if you don’t admit your debt.”
He stepped back a little and looked at Shi Mengwan’s face. As if he was thinking, he said, “Speaking of which, president Huo and I have worked together for two or three times. The manor we’re living in now was developed by the Tianyu Group of the Huo family. We’ve worked together for so many times, and we’re living in a house developed by someone else, but I’ve never invited him here as a guest. That’s really rude of me.”
Seeing Shi Mengwan’s small face gradually turn pale, he slowly said, “How about I host a banquet tomorrow and invite president Huo and Mrs. Huo to visit my house together? Can I also be considered as a host? What do you think?”
Nothing much?
Shi Mengwan’s expression was extremely unsightly due to this blatant threat. Wishing she could glare at him and say she was fine, she glared at Zhan Haoze, who was in front of her.
However, she was lying down and wasn’t wearing any clothes. No matter how hard he stared, she didn’t have any imposing manner. Instead, to Zhan Haoze, it was like… seducing.
“You don’t object? Then it’s settled.” Zhan Haoze got up after saying that and was about to get off the bed. “I’ll get someone to make the arrangements now.”
“Enough.” Shi Mengwan quickly sat up and reached out to grab his hand. Her face was extremely red. “What do you want?”
“I told you, you have to listen to me today.”
Shi Mengwan was extremely angry. Did she have any other choice now? She closed her eyes and nodded. She lay back on the bed.
That defeated expression of hers caused Zhan Haoze to narrow his eyes. He stared at Shi Mengwan’s face for a long time before he suddenly stood up and left.
Shi Mengwan was a little surprised by the sound of footsteps. She really didn’t understand why Zhan Haoze would let her go so easily?
She lowered her head and looked at herself. It was as if she just realized her current state. She quickly pulled up the blanket and covered her body.
She half-curled her body and wanted to find some clothes. However, she doubted that Zhan Haoze would let her go so easily.
Sure enough, not long after, Zhan Haoze came back. This time, there was something in his hand.
Hearing the voice, Shi Mengwan turned around and saw the thing in his hand. Her small face was slightly stunned, and she looked at him blankly.
“Today is a good day to remember.” Zhan Haoze took a few steps forward and walked to the bedside. He looked at Shi Mengwan with a look that she could see with a glance.
“So, let’s drink to celebrate.”
As he spoke, he had already placed the two bottles of opened wine in his hands on the bedside table at the side. There were also two wine glasses placed there.
Shi Mengwan swallowed her saliva. What was this guy trying to do?
Shi Mengwan realized the danger and her first reaction was to run —
Zhan Haoze didn’t give her a chance. The moment she got up, he hugged her.
He trapped her in his arms and hugged Shi Mengwan, who was practically naked, as he sat on the bed.
“Didn’t you say you would listen to me today? Why did you run?”
How could Shi Mengwan not want to run? She was almost certain that what Zhan Haoze did to her would make her very ashamed and unwilling.
She didn’t answer, and Zhan Haoze didn’t force her. He was in a good mood today. He picked up the bottle of wine and poured two cups.
He picked up one cup and handed it to Shi Mengwan. Shi Mengwan looked at the wine cup and shook her head. “I don’t know how to drink.”
Even if she did, she didn’t want to drink now. The situation before her was too dangerous. Although she had promised to listen to Zhan Haoze, she still wanted to have a chance to catch her breath.
Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes and didn’t force her. He just drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Just when Shi Mengwan thought he was going to let her go, he pressed down on the back of her head and aimed at her lips…
..
When Shi Mengwan woke up in the morning, she hadn’t recovered from that shameful and secretive love.
Her limbs were weak, and her body was weak. The bedding on the bed had been changed long ago. Not only the bed sheets and blankets, but even the mattress underneath had been changed.
When she thought about how Zhan Haoze had shamelessly asked someone to come up and change the bedding after he carried her into the bathroom last night, Shi Mengwan wished she could find a hole and hide in it.
She didn’t want to go downstairs at all, much less go out.
When she felt someone come in, she buried her face in the blanket, but very quickly, the blanket was lifted by someone.
“Get up and eat.”
Zhan Haoze sat by the bed and looked at her. The last person she wanted to see right now was Zhan Haoze. She turned over and didn’t look at him at all.
“I can’t eat.”
“Wanwan?”
His hand hadn’t even touched her shoulder when she swatted it away. Such a simple action made her body ache. It was clear that someone had gone too far yesterday.
“Zhan Haoze, I want to go back to Lin City.”
She had had enough. She had been here for three days. On the first day, she took a quick stroll around the streets and glanced around.
On the second day, before she had even reached one-third of her trip to Ancient City, she had already given up because she had met Su Qingsang.
There was no need to talk about today. Thanks to Zhan Haoze’s craziness yesterday, her waist was now soft. EEven going downstairs felt strenuous, not to mention going out to play.
“I haven’t played yet. Why do you want to go back?” Zhan Haoze didn’t understand why she was throwing a tantrum again. She had promised to stay for a few days.
When he met Shi Mengwan’s mocking gaze, Zhan Haoze’s face heated up and he suddenly reacted.
“I’m sorry.” He reached out to touch her cheek, his strength gentle and gentle. “I lost control yesterday.”
Yesterday wasn’t the only time he lost control.
Shi Mengwan glared at him, wishing she could bite him in her heart.
“Zhan Haoze, no matter what you say, I’m going back to Lin City. Make the arrangements.”
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to book a plane ticket to go home, but it was Zhan Haoze, this extremely shameless villain, who kept her identity card.
She only found out later that she could take her bag as she pleased, but the ID inside had long been taken away by Zhan Haoze.
How could she return to Lin City in such a situation?
“Can’t you stay here for two more days?” Zhan Haoze happened to meet her angry eyes when she spoke and held her hand. “If you’re not feeling well today, take a day off. We’ll go out to play tomorrow.”
“No need.” She wasn’t in the mood to play with Zhan Haoze. “If I stay any longer, I’ll die.”
Not only was she angry, but she was also embarrassed. She almost died at his hands a few times last night.
How would she dare to stay? Moreover, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao were also in Qing City. Qing City was neither big nor small. There were only so many places she could play. If she met them again, she would really die.
Zhan Haoze frowned and looked at the resistance on her face. He knew that he had indeed gone too far last night.
It was just that it was too irresistble, and he really couldn’t control it.
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and Shi Mengwan said again, “I want to go back to Lin City.”
Zhan Haoze looked at her as if he was looking at a willful child. When Shi Mengwan said she wanted to go back for the third time, he finally had a reaction.
“I’ll have someone send you back tomorrow.”
Shi Mengwan didn’t believe that he would be so easy to talk to. Zhan Haoze added as she expected, “But you have to go out with me again tonight.”
“I’m not going.”
“You’ll like it.” Zhan Haoze said very gently, “You were too tired yesterday. I’ll take you to the hot spring tonight.”
Shi Mengwan looked at Zhan Haoze. The man in front of her was no longer the evil and pervert he was last night. He looked at her with a very devoted gaze.
Not only was he devoted, but she also found her reflection in him.
Her heart skipped a beat. She turned her face away to avoid Zhan Haoze’s gaze and told herself. These were all false appearances.
He was a two-timing bastard, a scumbag.
Zhan Haoze had no way of knowing what Shi Mengwan was thinking. He was also very free today. The rare patience and good temper he had were all used on her.
At night, he really brought Shi Mengwan to the hot spring.
Zhan Haoze didn’t do anything this time, as if he knew the trauma he had caused her yesterday.
The hot spring water made Shi Mengwan feel much better. After returning to the Cherry Blossom Villa to rest, she slept until midnight and was once again awakened by Zhan haoze’s blood from the day of his accident.
A nightmare came and she woke up immediately this time.
“Wanwan, are you alright?”
Zhan Haoze slept with her. Shi Mengwan shook her head. It had been a while since she had this dream.
She didn’t have the time to care about Zhan Haoze’s concern. Shi Mengwan rushed into the bathroom to wash her face and calm down. Her best friend, who came once a month, arrived on time.
Shi Mengwan looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly let out a sigh of relief.
She wasn’t pregnant. Zhan Haoze’s misdeeds these few times had made her confused. There were even a few times when he didn’t do anything, and he didn’t have any reason to remind her.
Now that her period had finally arrived, she wasn’t pregnant. That was good enough.
After coming out of the bathroom and lying down, Zhan Haoze’s hand came over. He saw that she wasn’t in a good mood and knew that she had a nightmare. He wanted to ask how she was.
“My period is here.” Shi Mengwan closed her eyes and didN’t look at him at all. “Don’t touch me.”
Zhan Haoze’s hand stopped for a moment. He saw the resistance on Shi Mengwan’s face and didN’t understand why she was throwing a tantrum again.
“I just want to ask you if you had a nightmare? You –” She didn’t need to treat him like a beast. The moment he touched her, he wanted to have sex with her, right?
“Thank you for your concern.” Shi Mengwan still didn’t open her eyes. Her voice was even colder than before. “I didn’t have a nightmare. I’m fine. Save your concern for someone you should be more concerned about.”
Don’t think that she didn’t know that when he was soaking in the hot spring tonight, he had even contacted Chen Feifei.
Since he was so reluctant to part with her, why did he have to put on a show in front of her now? He didn’t think it was hypocritical. She was disgusted by it.
Zhan Haoze contacted Chen Feifei today because his men had found the illegitimate son who ran away. They also sent him to go with Chen Yongchang.
He had arranged the rest of the matters. For the time being, apart from the Chen family’s company in Lin City, he had nothing to do with Chen Feifei.
He didn’t know that Shi Mengwan heard him on the phone. That was why she disliked him so much.
He couldn’t help but hear her say something about someone he should care about more. He didn’t even realize who she was talking about.
“The person I care about the most is you.”
His words were a confession. However, Shi Mengwan didn’t believe a single word of it. She had just advised Miss Chen on the phone not to worry, but she turned around and said that the person she cared about the most was her?
Who would believe that?
No matter what, she didn’t believe it.
Shi Mengwan rested for an entire night and didn’t stay for another day. The next day, as soon as Zhan haoze arranged the plane, she immediately flew back to Lin City.
Sitting on the plane, she looked at the empty seat beside her. This time, Zhan Haoze didn’t return to Lin City with her, which gave her a very surreal feeling.
Zhan Haoze really let her go home just like that?
He didn’t follow her, and he didn’t send anyone to keep an eye on her?
This was really too illogical, but Shi Mengwan didn’t care about him. Maybe Zhan Haoze was satisfied after that night and was tired of it, so he finally decided to be kind and let her go?
Thinking of this, Shi Mengwan felt relaxed.
Thinking of what Zhan Haoze did that night, she still felt a little uncomfortable. However, this discomfort was nothing compared to the freedom and equality that she needed to enjoy.
No matter how overbearing Zhan Haoze was, no matter how much he pestered her, they were over now, right?
After a month, Zhan Haoze didn’t come to find her, which confirmed her guess. Good, very good. Zhan Haoze finally let her go.
She suppressed the disappointment in her heart and told herself. This was really a joyous thing.
