“I’m thirsty. Can 1 have a glass of water first?” Meng Nianyao smiled and looked at Gu Wencheng coquettishly. Gu Wencheng didn’t agree and just looked at her.

Meng Nianyao continued. “Really. 1 actually think the dishes tonight are a little salty. I’m really thirsty.”

Gu Wencheng thought that Meng Nianyao was lying through her teeth, so he smiled and let go of her. 1 think it’s a little salty too.”

Meng Nianyao looked at him and nodded sincerely. “Then I’ll go get some water. I’ll get you a cup too?”

“Okay.”

Meng Nianyao smiled and walked away from Gu Wencheng, walking quickly to the dining room. Compared to her panic, Gu Wencheng was more like a hunter waiting for his prey. No matter how hard Meng Nianyao tried to escape, she couldn’t escape from his grasp.

The hot water ran out, so Meng Nianyao boiled another kettle. She thought that since Gu Wencheng usually worked late, she would hide in the kitchen first. After Gu Wencheng went to the study, she would quietly go to the guest room and lock the door. That way, she would be able to hide tonight.

But today, Gu Wencheng was especially free. Meng Nianyao had been in the kitchen for half an hour, but he was still sitting on the sofa. He asked slowly, “Mrs. Gu, you’re pouring the water very slowly. Did you personally go to the river to fetch water?” He looked at his watch again.

Meng Nianyao was speechless.

Gu Wencheng got up from the sofa and strode to her side. She wanted to hide, but before she could move, Gu Wencheng had already picked her up. “Since there’s no water to drink, I won’t drink. “Actually, I’m more looking forward to my main course.”

Meng Nianyao was speechless. In the end, he did not escape.

The next day, when Meng Nianyao woke up, it was already late in the morning. She lay down for a while to relieve the pain in her waist and legs.

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened and Gu Wencheng came in with a smile. When his gaze fell on the red mark on her neck, his smile deepened.

Meng Nianyao didn’t notice it at first. When she was washing up, she saw the hickey and angrily ran out to grab Gu Wencheng. Gu Wencheng didn’t hide and smiled as he held her waist. “Mrs. Gu’s temper is getting worse.”

“It’s all your fault!” Meng Nianyao stomped her foot in anger.

“It’s very beautiful and I’m very proud of it.” Gu Wencheng smiled. He gently kissed the hickey.

Meng Nianyao was so embarrassed that her scalp went numb. She was on the verge of exploding.

Gu Wencheng smiled and let go. “Okay, 1 won’t tease you anymore. Sister Wang is on leave today and won’t be coming. 1 have to get ready to go to work. Can you stay at home alone? Or are you going to the company with me?”

Meng Nianyao looked at the smile on his face and the anger in her heart suddenly disappeared. She snorted. “I’m not going. I’ll stay at home.”

“Are you sure?”

” Of course I’m sure. I’m a grown woman. Why can’t I stay at home alone?”

Gu Wencheng was amused. “Okay, I’ll go to the company then.” He kissed Meng Nianyao on the forehead. “Be good at home. Call me if you need anything.”

After Gu Wencheng left, Meng Nianyao rested on the balcony for a while. About an hour later, the phone in the house suddenly rang. Ever since she was hospitalized, she hadn’t played with her phone much. Now that she heard the ringtone of her phone, she actually felt strange.

Meng Nianyao got up and walked to the coffee table to pick up her phone. It was a string of unfamiliar numbers. Meng Nianyao hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

“Meng Nianyao, you bitch! You bitch! Return my son to me!” As soon as the call connected, Wang Shulan’s voice came through.

Meng Nianyao didn’t react in time at first, but she hung up the phone after she reacted. However, the next second, her phone rang again. She frowned, took a deep breath, and answered the call.

“Wang Shulan, I have nothing to do with your family anymore. Meng Haotian deserves it. He can’t blame anyone else.” Meng Nianyao calmly finished her sentence. The other end of the phone fell silent for a moment. After a while, the voice on the other end became even more piercing.

“Meng Nianyao! You b * tch, you ruined the rest of my son’s life! 1 won’t let you off!”

After saying this, Wang Shulan hung up the phone.

Meng Nianyao frowned. Meng Haotian…Perhaps it was because she had been living too well recently that she had almost forgotten about this person. Her good mood for the day was ruined just like that, and she was a little frustrated..
