Chapter 102 - Securing the Villa

What is the truth behind M’s death?!

K was the only clue she had obtained. She absolutely can’t let it slip!

Li Nanchen looked at her in disbelief. His hand trembled while his lips curled up in a self-deprecating smile. He asked, “Why?”

“Are you stopping me because of him?!”

“You went to the Ministry of Defense and became a Special Agent to get close to K? Is that right?”

Li Nanchen’s voice sounded somewhat miserable. Wu Mei did not understand what he was talking about. Thinking that she would have a chance to clarify the misunderstanding in the future, she stood in front of K and said weakly, “You misunderstood… Cough, cough.”

“He’s a Senior from the Ministry of Defense. If you kill him here, you’ll be in trouble!”

Li Nanchen’s brows furrowed and his lips gradually lost their color. They turned pale but he endured it and said, “I’m not afraid!”

“If it’s not what I think, then why? Tell me! As long as you tell me, I’ll believe you.”

Li Nanchen grabbed her shoulder. His gaze was almost begging as he said this. Wu Mei couldn’t give him a specific reason and could only press her lips together tightly.

K looked at them. Li Nanchen called his subordinates over and forcefully brought Wu Mei away.

Wu Mei tugged on his sleeve tightly and said gently, “Li Nanchen, look at me. Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”

After they parted ways, Wu Mei was always worrying about Li Nanchen.

However, Li Nanchen did not even look at her and urged his subordinates to move faster…

The moment Wu Mei left, he finally couldn’t hold on any longer. He knelt on one knee and clutched his aching heart as he spat out two mouthfuls of blood.

His subordinates were shocked to speechlessness. They surrounded him and immediately sent him to the hospital for treatment!

In the villa, there were bodyguards, who were very agile, with guns every five meters. Wu Mei wanted to leave, but she was tightly surrounded!

Wu Mei paced around the room in frustration. She asked, “How long do you want to keep me under house arrest? I want to see Li Nanchen!”

“He can’t meet you.”

The bodyguard replied stoically. Wu Mei stood in front of him with a frown. She observed his expression as she asked, “Is it because he doesn’t want to see me?”

“I have something to say about that day! We need to sit down and have a good talk!”

The bodyguard turned his gaze away and remained silent, keeping mum no matter what she asked.

This guy! Why does he always make speculations based on his own imagination?!

Wu Mei was furious. She heard a few coughs and saw Old Master Li coming out of the study in a wheelchair. She quickly concealed her expression.

She did not want the Old Master to worry about them. Fortunately, her drug addiction was under control now. Li Nanchen would come back eventually!

Wu Mei squatted down with a smile and asked, “How are you today? Are you feeling unwell? Can I take your blood pressure?”

Old Master Li looked at her with worry in his eyes. Looking around at the strangers who had suddenly appeared in the villa, he asked, “Did that brat make you angry?”

Wu Mei shook her head and comforted him, “We’re fine…”

The door of the detention center opened slowly. Lin Piaopiao looked up at the dazzling sunlight and was somewhat unable to get used to it.

She hailed a cab and returned to the villa. When she saw the people standing guard outside, she was instantly afraid and hesitated, not daring to step in.

Coincidentally, Lin Liguo came out with the trash and dragged Lin Piaopiao to the cafe outside the surveillance range. He recounted the events of the past two days to her in detail and said, “Wu Mei has already fallen out of favor. Li Nanchen hasn’t returned to the villa for a few days. Those people are also very cold to her.”

“Something might have happened between them! This is your best chance. Seize it!”

“You’ll be the mistress of the Li family!”

As Lin Liguo imagined the future, Lin Piaopiao’s gloomy emotions were swept away. She instantly put on a haughty posture and ran to the bedroom to push the door open. Seeing Wu Mei’s dejected expression as she stared at the screen, Lin Piaopiao became smug and deliberately taunted her, “Since you two have already divorced and Brother Nanchen is no longer interested in you, quickly pack up and get lost. Don’t stay here anymore, or else Brother Nanchen will get angry when he comes back and sees you!”

Wu Mei tilted her head and looked up at her derisively as she said, “It’s not your place to lecture me.”

“If you have the ability to get Li Nanchen to protect you, you can tell me to move out in front of him.”

“If you’re not capable, hide yourself well and be a freeloader…”

Lin Piaopiao was furious. She recalled that the miserable life she had in the detention center was all thanks to Wu Mei. She rushed to the edge of the bed, wanting to slap Wu Mei.

Wu Mei couldn’t even be bothered to look at her. She grabbed Lin Piaopiao’s wrist accurately and flung it gently. Lin Piaopiao fell to the ground and wailed in agony as her waist hit the foot of the bed.
