“Xiao He, are you inside? Sister is here to pick you up.”
Chu Rui didn’t answer, and Mei Shu called Mei He as loudly as she could.
But it suddenly became quiet inside. Even the footsteps just now had disappeared.
Mei Shu’s heart was pounding. She pressed her ear to the door and listened attentively.
Suddenly, a loud bang sounded inside the door.
Mei Shu’s pupils were constricted in shock. Unable to wait for a response from inside, she raised her leg and kicked the door open.
The noise quickly attracted the attention of the other residents. Someone hurriedly called the front desk to check the situation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that there was such a huge footprint on the door, the staff member widened her eyes in disbelief. “Sir, you are…”
“She must be catching her husband and another woman cheating! I’ve seen this kind of thing a lot!” Some onlookers were eager to capture the scene on their phones, looking forward to witnessing the drama of the wife beating up the mistress and her cheating husband.
But after a long wait, there was no movement in the room.
Someone was driven by curiosity to look in through the door, only to find that there was no one in the room except for the girl who kicked the door just now.
The window was open inward, and the heavy rain outside was blown in by the wind, wetting most of the curtains.
“Did he jump out of the window and run away when he heard the noise? This is the third floor! Does this man want to die?” Someone secretly complained and quickly shut up.
This was because Mei Shu’s expression was really terrifyingly cold.
Obviously, she had also thought of this possibility.
Chu Rui jumping out of the window was not a big deal even if he died, but Xiao He was so timid. How could he withstand such a big fright?
With this in mind, she quickly ran to the window and looked down, only to see that the shed below had been dented, and Chu Rui was pressed into the mud by the driver she brought and struggling desperately.
She looked around carefully. After confirming that there was no sign of Mei He, she was about to jump down from the window too.
The receptionist of the hotel was shocked and quickly grabbed her arm. “Miss, don’t do that. It’s not worth it for that kind of jerk. This is the third floor. What if you break your leg?!”
“What jerk?” Mei Shu shook off her hand in a daze, her expression terrifyingly calm. “I’ll compensate you for the loss of the room. Don’t stop me. I know what I’m doing.”
With that, she stepped over the window and jumped down. Along the way, she grabbed the edge of the window below to cushion the fall before landing steadily on the ground.
The people upstairs gasped when they saw her agile movements.
No wonder the man in the room would rather jump out of the window than come out to confront them.
If they had such a fierce girlfriend, they probably wouldn’t even dare to speak loudly.
The mud under his feet splashed all over Chu Rui’s face. He was originally well-dressed when he first arrived in Lin City, but now he was covered in filth and looked even worse than a beggar on the roadside.
Seeing his Miss, the driver finally let go of his hand.
As soon as Chu Rui was free, he struggled to get up from the ground. The pain in his ankle made him tense, but before he could hold up his upper body, his collar was lifted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore he could react, Mei Shu’s cold face appeared in front of him.
“I’ll only ask you once. Where is my brother?” Mei Shu’s voice seemed to be covered with ice, even colder than the sound of the rain in Chu Xia.
Chu Rui forced a smile and tried his best to blink his eyes to make his blurry vision gradually clear. “At this point, you only care about your brother.”
“Of course. If I don’t care about Xiao He, do I care about you, the abductor?” Mei Shu tightened her grip on his collar, almost suffocating Chu Rui. “Where did you take Xiao He?”
Chu Rui smiled miserably and said, “Make a guess yourself!”
Mei Shu threw him away like a rag and clenched his fists angrily. “Inform our family to send someone to support us immediately. With him here, Xiao He shouldn’t have gone far!”
“Okay, Miss!” The driver hurriedly called Butler Zhao to inform him of the current situation while looking around for someone.
Chu Rui was thrown to the ground and severely hit his ankle, but he just grunted, wiped the rain on his face with his hand, raised his head, and stared straight at Mei Shu. “Do you remember? When you were young, you were locked outside the door by Old Wang in the rain. 1 brought you home. At that time, you were thin and small, and you were trembling all over when you entered my house. 1 covered you with a bath towel, and my mother thought I picked up a kitten.”
Mei Shu was about to take a step forward when she suddenly stopped. She glanced at him coldly and said, “Chu Rui, we could have been fine.”
“Why? You owe me! You promised to return my favor, but you changed so quickly for that man!” Chu Rui roared hoarsely in the rain..
