Chapter 1402: I Only Want You (100)
“Silly, just don’t let him find out. I can teach you how not to let him discover that you were the one who did it. You just have to listen to me. Mengmeng, don’t you want to marry me?”
“Of course I do.”
He gazed at her and said gently, “In that case, don’t be stuck in a dilemma anymore. Let’s get married after this matter is settled, alright?”
Xi Changzhi held onto her slender waist and began thrusting his hips back and forth vigorously while Su Meng moaned loudly in immense pleasure. She could not help herself at all.
Xi Changzhi finally called it quits after a long while. Su Meng lay back in his embrace, filled with satisfaction and joy.
“Will you really marry me after this matter is settled?”
Xi Changzhi squinted and said, “What’s wrong? Don’t you believe me?”
Su Meng said profusely in denial, “No, I’m just worried because we’ve been dating for so long but you’ve never mentioned marriage before…”
“I didn’t have plans to marry you before but I do now. If I didn’t adore you, why would I bother getting intimate with you all the time? Mengmeng, you love me, don’t you?”
“Of course. I love you very much. If not, I wouldn’t have been willing to stay in a clandestine relationship with you.”
“Good.”
Su Meng grinned widely at the thought of their future together.
——
Jing Chu allowed the nanny to babysit Pei Ling because she had to go to the Su family home to pick up Fat Lass.
As soon as she did, she brought Fat Lass out for shopping and bought her two sets of clothes and shoes. Surprised and grateful, Fat Lass thanked her profusely. Jing Chu felt that it was only right, for she felt guilty for implicating Fat Lass and causing her to be imprisoned for a year.
As soon as Fat Lass left, Su Meng called Qiao An.
Qiao An was surprised to receive the call from her. She spoke to her in a calm and ordinary tone.
“Hello, Mengmeng. What’s the matter?”
“Sis-in-law, I’d like to meet you. I have something to tell you in private. Can we meet up?”
“Come over to my place, then. Your brother is not in, he has left for work.”
“Umm… can you come out instead? I want to meet you at a cafe,” Su Meng suggested.
Qiao An agreed.
Qiao An arrived at the cafe to see that Su Meng had already ordered a cup of coffee for her.
Melodious music was playing in the background, and there were no other patrons in the cafe.
Qiao An sat down and said, “It would have been better to meet me at my place. Your brother isn’t home anyway.”
“It’s better to talk outside. Sis-in-law, please allow me to apologize to you for everything that I had done in the past. I couldn’t bring myself to apologize to you in front of Mother yesterday, so I wanted to tell you in private.”
Qiao An nodded and said, “Okay, it’s all over now. Don’t bring it up again.”
Although she did resent Su Meng, there was nothing she could do because Su Meng was Su Yan’s sister.
She decided to let go of the grudges, so long as Su Meng doesn’t repeat the mistake again.
Su Meng took a sip of her coffee. Pointing at the cup of coffee in front of Qiao An, she said, “I ordered this for you, Sis-in-law. I don’t know if you’ll like it, but have a taste.”
Recalling Mrs. Su’s words, Qiao An began to believe that Su Meng was sincere in apologizing.
Although Su Meng was extremely nervous, she decided to go all out for the sake of her own happiness.
Once Qiao An passed out after taking a few sips of the coffee, one of the waiters immediately came forth to move Qiao An out of the cafe and into her car.
Su Meng was filled with uncertainty and anxiety. She had no idea what Xi Changzhi was planning to do. However, her intuition told her that he definitely was up to no good.
She wanted to tag along but was stopped by the two men who were disguised as waiters.
At this moment, Jing Chu and Fat Lass happened to stumble upon the two men who were abducting Qiao An. Sensing that something was amiss, Jing Chu frantically called Su Yan.
She then scurried toward her own car and tailed Qiao An’s car.
The man driving Qiao An’s car sped toward a remote district while Jing Chu hurriedly instructed the chauffeur to step on the accelerator and chase after the car.
She stayed engaged in the phone call with Su Yan throughout the entire journey. Due to the fact that she was not familiar with the roads, she had to get the chauffeur to tell Su Yan their exact location.
To Qiao An’s surprise, Su Yan sent his helicopter to stop the car in front.
The man driving Qiao An’s car only realized that they were being tailed much later.
However, there was no longer any chance for escape.
Qiao An was rescued successfully while the other two men killed themselves, for they knew clearly that they could not flee in time.
When Su Yan first heard the news, he was both anxious and afraid. However, he felt as if a boulder had been lifted off his chest when he saw that Qiao An was safe and sound.
Jing Chu and Fat Lass heaved a sigh of relief.
Jing Chu tagged along in Su Yan’s car when he drove Qiao An back home.
Qiao An regained her consciousness shortly after they arrived at the Su family home.
She then explained everything to Su Yan in detail.
Su Yan flew into a rage and ordered his subordinates to bring Su Meng to him.
Su Yan proceeded to look for the elders of his family to inform them of what happened.
Jing Chu and Fat Lass stayed behind to accompany Qiao An.
Qiao An was grateful for their timely discovery. If it hadn’t been for their help, the consequences would have been dire.
She lay down on the bed feebly, feeling disappointed and flabbergasted.
“I can’t believe she tried to harm me even after I had forgiven her. I really don’t know why she wants to do that.”
Jing Chu said, “Sis Qiao An, don’t brood over it. Once bitten, twice shy. Just ignore her when you see her next time. A leopard will never change its spots. Question her when Mr. Su brings her here later. Ask her for her reason.”
Qiao An nodded.
To the astonishment of Qiao An and the Su family, Su Meng had already died by the time they found her.
Her corpse was found in the exact same spot that she and Qiao An were sitting at in the cafe.
She was lying motionless with foam oozing out of her mouth. She had clearly been poisoned to death.
Strangely, rumors of Qiao An murdering Su Yan for revenge surfaced as soon as the police intervened.
The Su family did not believe the speculations at first. However, they decided to come to a conclusion after receiving the outcome of the investigation.
News of Qiao An committing murder continued to spread like wildfire.
The rumors got worse with each passing day.
The police deduced that Qiao An was not a suspect.
The reason was that Su Meng was the one who called Qiao An first that day, and Mrs. Su had also verified that Qiao An was the one who left first, followed by Su Meng, who exited after answering a call. The police then tried to track down the number who called Su Meng, only to discover that it was no longer in use.
However…
There were records of that number in the database of the telecommunication company.
According to the information stated in the database, the identification card number of the owner of the mobile number was just a random number found on the internet. The owner of a telecommunication store was the one who registered the mobile number with those details.
