There were still several hours to go until the early morning as instructed by Rong Bo. It wasn't a good idea to just stand guard at the door like this. I was about to go to Lao Bai's place to take shelter when my husband called.
Rong Bo: "Haven't you got home yet?"
Me: "How do you know!"
Rong Bo: "No one answered the home phone."
Me: "Well, something happened just when I got to the door. It's all sorted out now. I'm going in right away."
Rong Bo: "What happened?"
I said casually, "It's nothing. Someone sent me some threatening photos. I've already reported it to the police."
Rong Bo: "What's going on?"
I fudged my way through and hung up the phone.
I opened the door again. Standing at the door, I turned on all the lights and played the song "Good Luck Is Coming" to liven up the atmosphere. Then, shivering, I walked into the house.
I've always lived with my parents. This was the first time I was alone in the house, in such a terrifying environment and just after being threatened...
I turned on all the noisy household appliances. The TV was playing a cheerful program, and the kettle in the kitchen was boiling with a gurgling sound. I sat on the sofa, looking at the window one moment, then under the sofa, and then suddenly turning around to check if there was anyone hiding behind the door. Damn it! This house was so big that it would be easy for someone to hide without being discovered!
I used to really enjoy being alone. I thought the feeling of solitude was good for thinking.
But now I think solitude is so scary. No matter how noisy the surrounding sounds were, they couldn't cover up the fear in my heart. Although it was good for thinking, it also made it easier for me to have wild thoughts. I thought about that threatening photo, about someone doing such bloody and violent things to my photo, and about whether he would follow me home. Maybe he was lying in some dark place right now, secretly watching me...
There were still several hours to go. How was I going to get through them...
I finally understood how the term "a lonely woman in the boudoir" came about.
Suddenly, there came the electronic sound of the door unlocking. In this tense atmosphere, it was like a bomb going off!
I immediately jumped up from the sofa and grabbed a handicraft beside me and rushed over -
Hey?
Wasn't this my husband?
I put down the "weapon" in my hand and hugged him tightly. "Why are you back so early?"
I thought he would come up with some excuses, saying that he finished work early, or just be too proud to explain. But the big shot was really magnanimous: "I was worried about you."
Wuwuwu, I was about to cry...
Having someone to accompany you when you're lonely is better than anything in the world!
I hugged Rong Bo for a long time and didn't want to let go. He was warm, alive, male, and firm...
Huh?
Something was off.
I lifted my head that had been rubbing against his chest for a long time and looked into his eyes that showed a hint of worry. For a big shot who was good at hiding his emotions, this "hint" should be multiplied by a hundred.
I didn't care. He was definitely very worried about me.
I stood on my tiptoes and kissed him. He tilted his head slightly to meet my kiss.
We stumbled into the sofa. He tore open my clothes, and I pushed up his shirt...
At a crucial moment, he picked me up and carried me to the bed.
This time, he was quite restrained and only used two.
After it was over, I was lying there drowsily when I heard him answer a phone call: "Have you found out?"
I immediately woke up and then heard him say: "Take him out."
Me: !!!
Rong Bo hung up the phone and looked at me. "Did I wake you up?"
Me: "Who were you on the phone with?"
Rong Bo: "It's nothing."
I wasn't going to act like nothing had happened. "Did you find out who sent me the threatening photos?"
Rong Bo: "Yes."
Me: "Who?"
Rong Bo: "A fake - medicine seller."
I scrambled up. The silk quilt slid down, exposing my body covered with red marks. I quickly grabbed the quilt to cover myself. Rong Bo squinted his eyes like a lazy cat.
So did "take him out" mean... I shivered and asked, "You can't kill people. It's illegal."
Rong Bo: "..."
I got anxious. "No matter how rich you are, you can't override the law! And since I had the courage to tell the truth online, I was already prepared to be attacked. This was my own choice. I don't need you to interfere! Otherwise, people will say that I'm relying on my husband... and all my efforts will be wiped out by you!"
Rong Bo finally said, "I raided his den, not killed the person."
Me: "..."
Oops.
It was a misunderstanding.
I was too excited just now and my attitude might have been a bit over - the - top. I quickly turned into a docile little kitten again and lay sticky on his chest. "My husband loves me the most. My husband is the best. Thank you, husband..."
Rong Bo, who couldn't stand it anymore, simply shut up this chattering vixen with his mouth.
Ah.
One more was used.
Early the next morning, a video was posted online. After the police raided a black workshop making and selling fake products, the main culprit in handcuffs cried in front of the camera: "I'm sorry, Xingzai. I shouldn't have sent you those scary photos to threaten you... I just wanted to sell more fake medicine..."
He looked so wretched.
The villain hiding in the dark had nowhere to hide in the sunlight.
However, the big shot's intervention had still changed the nature of this incident.
Although most netizens felt sorry for me and supported my courage to tell the truth, there were also some skeptical voices. ["Xingzai must have been scared this time. She probably won't dare to speak so bluntly in the future."] ["Just because of a threatening photo, they raided the den. There must be a very powerful person behind Xingzai."] ["Whoever dares to say something bad about the young mistress from now on will be in danger! Hehe."]...
Me: "..."
Regarding this result, Rong Bo said, "This is the last time."
Originally, I wanted to pursue the matter further, but I decided to be more magnanimous. "Okay!"
Today, Rong Bo didn't go to work early as usual. Instead, he ate the breakfast I made with me and said he would take me somewhere.
It was all very mysterious.
I thought we would have to drive a long way, but it was actually just two streets away from his house.
After getting out of the car, I saw a very cozy white villa.
This area was a villa complex. Unlike the villa we lived in, which was isolated and lonely, the houses here were just a few meters away from the neighbors. The security measures were also very complete. A young mother was pushing a baby carriage in front of the door. The little baby drooled and giggled at me.
I asked Rong Bo, "Who are you going to visit?"
Rong Bo: "Go in and have a look."
He entered the password on the wrought - iron gate and led me in by the hand.
The yard was full of lush flowers. There were stone steps on the green grass, leading us step by step to the door.
After pushing the door open, we entered a bright living room. A circular staircase led to the second floor. The decoration style was very high - class.
Rong Bo: "Do you like this house?"
I took a careful look around upstairs and downstairs. It wasn't just a matter of like or dislike. I was really into it!
Me: "I like it!"
Looking at the brand - new furniture, even the plastic film on the TV hadn't been removed. I couldn't help asking Rong Bo, "Whose house is this?"
Rong Bo: "Yours."
