Chapter 184 Take her away
Chapter 184 Take her away
Fu Shiyue slowly approached, and he heard two people talking.
Among them was a voice he knew best... Ye Xingran's voice.
She was indeed hidden abroad by Bai Yu, and Bai Yu was definitely planning something, worried that she would be implicated.
That's why he first drugged Ye Xingran and brought her here, planning to meet her in London after things were settled.
Fu Shiyue quickened his pace and walked in the direction of the sound.
As he turned a corner, Fu Shiyue's gaze was suddenly drawn to two people—Ye Xingran and Bai Yu were standing in the living room talking about something.
Fu Shiyue, hiding behind some cover, listened to their conversation.
Bai Wei frowned slightly, a sense of unease rising in her heart.
She slowly walked to Bai Yu's side and said softly, "Brother, I don't want to stay in this unfamiliar place. I want to go home..." Bai Wei's voice revealed a hint of grievance and fear.
Bai Yu turned to look at his sister, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He gently stroked Bai Wei's hair and comforted her, "Weiwei, it's not safe over there right now. It would be dangerous for you to go back."
"Brother, have you forgotten what kind of situations I haven't seen before? I'm..."
Bai Wei bit her lip, seemingly wanting to retort, but swallowed the words back. She thought of her life in Yunmeng, a period filled with hardship and suffering.
In Yunmeng, she often lived a life of uncertainty, facing various punishments and hardships every day.
Those memories, like nightmares, were deeply imprinted in her mind and could not be erased no matter what.
"Brother, I'm not afraid of danger. I want to go back and help you. And I don't want to stay here either."
Bai Yu frowned and said to Weiwei with a serious expression, "Weiwei, stop being so willful. You shouldn't be getting involved in this matter at all. Only with you here can I handle other things with peace of mind."
Weiwei, however, disagreed and retorted, "Have you forgotten what kind of person I used to be? I was able to survive in such a difficult environment as Yunmeng, so what is this little danger?"
Just as the two were at an impasse, the maid Ann came over, placed two steaming cups of coffee on the table, and then turned to leave.
"Wait!" Bai Yu suddenly called out to Ann, "You stay here and take care of Weiwei. You absolutely cannot let her leave this place!"
Ann nodded and replied, "Yes, sir, I understand." Her answer was crisp and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Seeing this, Bai Yu nodded in satisfaction, then turned to leave the room.
Seeing her brother about to leave, she felt that Bai Yu was determined to lock her up here. She wanted to go forward, but Ann blocked her way: "I'm sorry, Miss, you can't leave here."
She didn't take out the phone, and I couldn't understand what she was saying, but right now, all she wanted was to leave this place.
It has become a luxury...
However, just as he was about to step out of the room, Fu Shiyue happened to see this scene.
His heart tightened; he knew he couldn't let Bai Yu discover his existence.
In the midst of the chaos, Fu Shiyue caught sight of the area behind the sofa. Without hesitation, he rushed over and quickly hid behind it, using the sofa to shield himself from Bai Yu's view.
It seems that Aran has been imprisoned here by Bai Yu.
He looked around; there were guards outside, and a foreign maid was watching Ye Xingran inside.
Taking her to the backyard to leave would be difficult, as it would require avoiding the security cameras inside the house.
Fu Shiyue was extremely anxious, his eyes quickly scanning his surroundings, searching for a way to break the deadlock.
Suddenly, he noticed that the monitor's wiring seemed to be loose. A daring plan formed in his mind.
He cautiously peeked out from behind the sofa, and while Ann's attention was on Bai Wei, he crouched down and approached the monitor.
He gently fiddled with the wires and successfully made the surveillance screen display static.
At the same time, he took out his phone and dialed the emergency number outside the villa, claiming that someone was in danger there.
Soon, the sound of sirens grew louder as they approached. Everyone outside was drawn to the commotion. Ann, too, was drawn outside and ran to investigate.
Fu Shiyue took the opportunity to prepare to go to Ye Xingran's room to find her.
Hearing the sounds coming from outside, Bai Wei, who was originally lost in her thoughts, was also drawn to them. The sound was like someone walking quickly, making a "tap tap tap" sound. She thought it was probably the maid coming to deliver something again, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
However, when she subconsciously turned her head, preparing to deal with the maid as usual, she was surprised to find that the person standing at the door was not the maid, but Fu Shiyue!
Bai Wei's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected to see him here at all. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered her voice and asked, "You...how did you get in?"
Seeing this, Fu Shiyue quickly made a shushing gesture, signaling Bai Wei to be quiet, and then said, "Don't speak, I'm here to save you. I will take you away from here. Cooperate with me, and we can leave safely without being discovered."
When Bai Wei heard Fu Shiyue say he would take her away from this place, an overwhelming excitement welled up inside her. She nodded without hesitation, indicating her willingness to cooperate.
He grabbed her hand and whispered, "Aran, come with me."
The two quickly ran to the backyard and, taking advantage of the chaos, successfully escaped the villa.
Both of them were wearing overcoats and ran wildly as if something terrible was chasing them. They ran until they reached the side of the street before finally stopping.
Bai Wei was panting heavily, a layer of sweat beading on her forehead. She braced herself on her knees, breathing deeply, and it took her a while to calm down. Just as she had calmed her breathing and was about to speak, she suddenly felt a dryness in her throat and couldn't make a sound for a moment.
"I..." Bai Wei managed to squeeze out a single word, her voice hoarse, as if she had just been crying. At this moment, she had so much to say to him. She wanted to tell him that during her days in London, because she couldn't see him, she had been constantly thinking of him.
However, the words caught in her throat. Bai Wei hesitated for a moment, then finally decided to ask about his situation first, "What about you? Did those people do anything to you...?"
He glanced at Bai Wei, and seeing the exhaustion and worry on her face, his heart softened. He shook his head and said softly, "I'm fine, they didn't do anything to me."
Bai Wei breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "That's good." She paused, then continued, "They were all very respectful to me, saying it was arranged by their master."
"It's alright now. With me here, no one will dare to touch you."
Hearing his words, Bai Wei was somewhat moved: "Actually, if I were really alone in this foreign land, I wouldn't die without you."
Having lived in Yunmeng, she had long since seen through life and death; whether she lived or died, it didn't matter.
In the end, everyone has to be buried underground.
"But I can't figure out who this 'sir' they're talking about is. Could it be my brother...?"
Bai Wei had already guessed some of the truth in her heart. She wasn't stupid; it's just that her brother hadn't told her the truth.
Fu Shiyue's expression changed slightly. Of course he knew who Bai Wei was referring to as "Mr." It could only be Bai Yu.
He thought to himself, it seems these people are indeed acting under Bai Yu's orders. They only obey Bai Yu's commands, and imprisoning Bai Wei was also his order.
"Aran, can we look around London together?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Wei's eyes as she looked into his eyes and said, "Okay."
Strolling through the streets of London, snowflakes began to fall, their pure white petals swirling and blanketing the city in silver. Bai Wei reached out and caught a snowflake, which slowly melted in her palm.
“It snows every day in this city, but this snow is different from the snow I see outside my apartment window,” she murmured.
Fu Shiyue looked at her and said, "Snow falls into your hand and turns into water, easily disappearing. But if you like, I will come to watch it with you every year from now on."
