1197 Trap

The sky was dark, and the rain was getting heavier. A thin layer of mist had already formed on the ground.

A black pearl sports car drove out of Rongyue Mansion. Raindrops rolled down the smooth body of the car. The engine roared and the black car quickly rushed into the continuous rain.

…

Yu Yu drove the car along the road leading up the hill.

!!
They had already arrived at the foot of the hill, and the terrain was gradually getting higher. The further they went, the denser the forest on both sides became.

The rain beat on the leaves, and the wind was bleak.

Although it was in the afternoon, the sky was gloomy because it was raining. The scenery outside the window passed by quickly and was blurred by the rain.

Yu Yu gripped the steering wheel, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

It was her first time here, and she had followed the GPS.

She had not known that it would be so difficult to navigate. The higher she went, the steeper it was, and there were many turns.

It would have been fine if it was a normal day, but it was raining now, and the road was slippery, so she had to drive very carefully.

By this time, they had already ascended the hill. The sky at the hill area had darkened early. If they had been any later, she really would not have been able to figure out the way.

She wanted to send Shen Li there as soon as possible, but she did not dare to drive fast in the rain. Thus, she could only drive forward with a heart full of grievances.

If it was not for Shen Li, she would not have to suffer like this!

Thinking of this, Yu Yu resentfully glanced in the rearview mirror.

However, what she saw gave her a shock!

Shen Li, who was supposed to be sleeping in the back row, had sat up and was looking at her quietly!

Her hands were still tied behind her back, but her peach blossom-shaped eyes were dark and cold, and there was no sign of fatigue in them!

She was clearly very clear-headed!

“You didn’t sleep?!”

Yu Yu exclaimed in shock.

Shen Li did not answer. Other than Yu Yu’s voice, the car was silent.

Only then did Yu Yu remember that Shen Li’s mouth had been taped up, so of course, she could not speak.

Yu Yu’s heart began to beat faster.

She forced herself to calm down and looked away.

“Forget it, it doesn’t matter if you’re asleep or not.”

She was tied up anyway, so what?

Moreover, there was no one else on the road. Even if Shen Li made any noise, it would not attract any attention, and no one would come to save her.

As long as she could send Shen Li up the hill, she did not need to worry about anything else.

She heaved a sigh of relief and could not help but look at the rearview mirror.

However, when she looked up, she met Shen Li’s mocking eyes.

Even though she could not speak, the mockery and sarcasm in her eyes were still extremely clear.

Yu Yu hated the way she looked at him. It was as if she had never looked upon her with any respect and was looking down on him!

A fire rose from the depths of his heart.

Yu Yu sneered.

“What are you looking at? Shen Li, if you have time to laugh at others, why don’t you think about yourself? Don’t worry, when we reach the place, there will be someone to serve you well.”

When she said this, the hatred in her heart burned, but when she thought of that scene, she felt a little happy.

“Lu Huaiyu hasn’t touched you yet, right? Do you think he’ll still want a soiled girlfriend after today?”

The car was silent.

Yu Yu had thought that Shen Li would panic after hearing this, but unexpectedly, Shen Li seemed to be completely indifferent.

She looked at Yu Yu indifferently, as if she was some kind of clown.

This gaze instantly provoked Yu Yu.

She was so angry that she laughed.

“Is it because you don’t believe me or is it because you’re not afraid? I guess you really won’t shed tears until you see your own coffin. Shen Li, you deserve what you’re getting today, do you understand?”

Shen Li turned her head away, as if she could not be bothered to listen to her.

People tended to become stupid when they were at their wits’ end and Yu Yu was the best example.

Shen Li leaned back in her seat and shifted slightly to a more comfortable position.

Yu Yu saw that she had not responded at all and that it was difficult and clumsy for her to even move. She did not say anything more, sneered, and focused on driving again.

Shen Li looked out of the window again.

Sleeping pills?

An ordinary person would quickly fall into a deep sleep after taking half a tablet.

Shi Yang probably thought that those two pills would be enough for her to sleep all the way.

It was a pity that he would never know what she had done in order to stay awake for a short while in the last few years of her past life in the sanatorium. During those nightmarish days, she had constantly been injected with tranquilizers and forced to take sleeping pills.

At that time, her body had developed a strong resistance to drugs, so the dosage had continued to be increased.

Of course, her current body was no longer the same as before, but she still had the memories of that time.

Resisting the drug had almost become her instinct.

She was awake… very, very awake.

The rain continued to fall on the car window, and the scenery outside could not be seen clearly. All she could see was a vague view of the dense forest.

This made it difficult to judge where the car was going.

However…

From the time Yu Yu had driven away from the villa to the time they had started ascending the hill, there was only one possibility.

Xi Hill.

Shi Yang had asked Yu Yu to drive her to Xi Hill.

A large number of camellia trees had been planted on Xi Hill, but at this time of the year, the camellia trees had not bloomed, so not many people came here.

Moreover, it was raining today, so there were even fewer people there.

It was a painstaking journey.

Shen Li closed her eyes and changed her position as if she was not comfortable.

This time, her hands that had been tied behind her back touched the cold doorknob.

She opened her eyes, and a cold glint flashed through them.

…

Shi Yang stood in front of the window and watched the car leave. He kept his gaze there until he could not see it anymore.

The sound of the rain pouring down was deafening.

The rain seemed to be heavier than expected.

That was pretty good.

He turned back to the living room and saw the empty teacup on the coffee table.

She was very vigilant. After entering, this was the only thing she had touched.

He took out a wet wipe and slowly wiped the edge of Shen Li’s cup before using the remote control.

Then, he looked around.

This villa did not belong to him. He had not touched anything since he had arrived.

No, it was as if he had never been here.

It had to be said that this was indeed a good remote place, and the rain today was just right.

He folded the wet wipe, put it back into the bag, sealed it, and put it in his pocket.

Then, he went to the entrance and changed out of the disposable slippers. He also took out the leather shoes that he had put in the bag earlier.

Just as he was about to put on his shoes, his phone suddenly vibrated.

He took it out. It was his assistant, Song Miao.

He frowned slightly.

He had already told him not to contact him today if there was nothing important. This phone call…

He picked it up.

“Hello,” he said.

“Teacher Shi Yang!”

Song Miao’s panicked voice could be heard.

“The police just called me and asked me to go to the Public Security Bureau to cooperate with the investigation! I… Where are you now?”

Shi Yang’s face turned cold.

He ended the call.
