Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Bai Chuwei Dares to Touch Her?
That voice was Bai Chuwei’s voice!
The smile that had just bloomed on Tong Yunrou’s face was now completely gone, replaced by an unmistakable fear.
Tong Yunrou was so full of regret that she wished she could slap herself. If she had gone quietly to the port as she was supposed to, perhaps nothing would have happened.
She was just unable to get over it. When she thought of her mother, Chen Meihua, whom she had admired since childhood, appearing so humble in the letters to Bai Chuwei, as if kneeling and looking up at Bai Chuwei from the foot of a mountain, it brought a surge of resentment in Tong Yunrou’s heart.
Even if punishing Bai Chuwei by running away would make Bai Chuwei gnash her teeth in frustration, it made Yunrou feel much better.
Who would have thought… she ended up taking a taxi directly to the Duan Family mansion!
All Tong Yunrou could think about was what she should do now.
Looking at the brightly lit Duan Family house, Yunrou clenched her teeth and, in a fit of desperation, sneaked out her phone and sent a distress message to the police.
Tong Yunrou, trembling with fear, got out of the taxi and walked into the Duan Family mansion’s hall, where Bai Chuwei was smilingly waving at her.
To someone unaware, they might think Bai Chuwei and Tong Yunrou were good friends! This update is available on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Seeing the smile on Bai Chuwei’s face, Yunrou felt her hair stand on end. Her legs instinctively carried her towards Duan Xiuqi. She grabbed his sleeve tightly, her body shaking like a leaf, and cried out, “Xiuqi, please help me. She must be out to harm me. Can you call the police for me?”
Bai Chuwei couldn’t help but take out a small mirror to look at her own face.
Was her smile really that terrifying?
Why did Tong Yunrou look as if Bai Chuwei was going to kill her?
Bai Chuwei sighed, “Although I indeed would like to have you meet with Chen Meihua, to have her teach you a lesson for being such a disobedient daughter, I’ve always been rather kind-hearted, and at most would have you taste the bitterness of heartache every day.”
The people around almost thought they had heard wrong.
Had Bai Chuwei misunderstood something about herself?
Tong Yunrou, frightened, kept screaming, “Bai Chuwei, the media is watching me closely now. If anything happens to me, I won’t let you get away with it!”
Seeing Bai Chuwei unmoved, Yunrou clung desperately to Duan Xiuqi’s arm, crying her eyes out, “Do you see, Xiuqi? The woman you’ve cared about for twenty years—she wants to kill me. She wants to become a murderer!”
Bai Chuwei: “…You’re really quite dramatic.”
Bai Chuwei felt that Tong Yunrou was not very good at comprehension; hadn’t she just said that she was kind-hearted? That she would not resort to murder.
All that could be heard in the hall was Yunrou’s crying. If one didn’t know better, they might think Bai Chuwei had done something utterly inhumane to her.
The police, upon receiving the distress message, didn’t dare to slack off and rushed to the scene. Hearing the cries from the hall, as if someone had lost their entire family, they felt a pang of fear.
They hoped nothing like a high-profile murder had happened!
Several officers, with tense expressions, didn’t even wait to notify the butler and barged straight in, “Police, everyone stop what you’re….?”
The voice abruptly stopped.
The police officers arriving on the scene looked around the hall in bewilderment. Everyone was sitting on sofas, with the young lady at the head leisurely drinking tea, while only one woman was on the floor, crying and shouting…
Tong Yunrou, seeing the police arrive, felt a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
Wasn’t Bai Chuwei supposed to be leading her to her doom? Would Bai Chuwei dare to do anything to her under police protection?
