The Cherished Old Time - C191

“Master.” The black clothed man stood beside Shang Wujin and said softly: “He’s here.”

Yu Meng seemed to be at a loss on what to do. She gripped the shoulder bag tightly and took a deep breath before replying in a slightly calmer tone, “Greetings, Old Master Shang.”

This was completely different from what Yu Meng had expected.

“Hello.”

He looked about the same as an old man. He was hidden in the vicissitudes of life so quietly that you couldn’t see it in his eyes or see it in his body.

He looked so simple and calm, but there was no one who wasn’t afraid of him.

This was where Shang Wujin was truly powerful.

He had someone prepare a chair and fresh juice for Remnant Dream.

“Speak, why are you looking for me?”

In front of Shang Wujin, he would never need to introduce himself. It seemed that the people he was facing, the things that were happening, and the results that would be created, were all in his control.

“I want to know, Shang Hui, he … Are you all right? ”

Shang Hui had not been able to contact his for so many days, but Yu Meng felt that the only person restricting her freedom was Old Master Shang.

Shang Wujin slightly leaned forward. There was no doubt, there was only a calm expression.

“You’re worried about him.”

Yu Meng did not retort. She silently bowed her head and waited for Shang Wujin’s next reply.

Yu Meng had no choice but to gather her courage.

“This matter is not Shang Hui’s fault, it is mine. It was I who accidentally lost the ring, allowing someone to take advantage of it. It was also I who changed the pill into vitamin, making Lina pregnant.

Shang Wujin squinted his eyes, and his voice was cold and heavy.

“So?”

“I did all of this, but it was Shang Duo who asked me to do it.” Yu Meng took out a recording pen from her bag. “There’s evidence here. I’ve recorded it all!”

Old Master Shang did not make a move, no one took the recording pen from Yu Meng, she just stood there stiffly, waiting for Shang Wujin’s question.

“You’ll do whatever he tells you to do?”

Yu Meng lowered her head.

“I am only a woman, Shang Duo can casually threaten me, and grab hold of my weakness can easily brainwash me.” Yu Meng spoke the truth, “I’m just an ordinary person, how can I guard against him?”

She had wanted to say, “How can someone from an ordinary family like her have the ability to play with people with the surname of Shang?”

However, Yu Meng held herself back because she didn’t dare to.

“Do you know what will happen if you come here today?”

Yu Meng nodded.

“I only wanted to expose Shang Duo’s scheme. You can prosecute me, you can let the police arrest me, and I am willing to take responsibility for the mistakes I made.”

Yu Meng lowered her head, feeling a little uncomfortable.

She only wanted to leave the Shang family and live her life in peace. However, the more she worked hard for this, the deeper she sank.

“Little miss, keep the recording pen. It’s useless to me, I admire your method of coming to me to admit your wrongs today. For your courage, I can send you to see Shang Hui.”

Yu Meng’s eyes lit up.

“Really?”

In truth, Yu Meng only came here to expose Shang Duo, she did not want to be a turtle hiding its head.

She did not hold any hope of seeing Shang Hui, but hearing Shang Wujin’s words, she could not help but feel anticipation.

Shang Wujin raised his hand and called his subordinates over as he coldly instructed them.

“Take her to see the young master.”

“Yes.”

Yu Meng followed the black-clothed man. She did not forget to turn and bow to Shang Wujin before she left.

Shang Wujin looked at Yu Meng, his expression dark.

The woman’s figure slowly disappeared from Shang Wujin’s sight. The man leaned back in the rocking chair and closed his eyes to rest, his left hand slowly placing into his pocket and taking out a ring with a dark pattern on it.

It was found from Lina’s hands. Before the woman died, she had clutched her stomach with one hand and tightly gripped the ring with the other.

Shang Wujin was too lazy to care about how the Shang Clan’s rings were turned by the two women. He was disappointed that his son was so powerless, but such an important thing was used by him to coax women.

If a person was too stupid, then they were destined to fail at anything. However, if a person was not smart, but thought that he was, then the result would be much more miserable.

Neither Yu Meng nor Lina could escape. None of the outsiders who knew the Shang family’s secret could leave.

Knowing too much is sometimes not a good thing.

Yu Meng followed the man in black, but she was not familiar with the place.

There was a forest in the backyard of the villa. The forest was separated by a stream, and the jungle was filled with some green shrubs. Yu Meng had never entered this place before. She always felt that this kind of forest that extended through the shrubs was quite eerie.

However, the stray dogs she teased before liked to drill into this place.

Walking out of the backyard, Yu Meng felt that something was wrong, so she stopped and looked confused.

“Where are you taking me?”

Yu Meng didn’t wait for a reply. She only waited for the hand that suddenly grabbed her arm and the piece of cotton cloth that was stuffed into her mouth.

“Woo woo woo!” Yu Meng struggled, but both her legs were in the air. She had no way to resist a man whose muscles were stronger than her legs combined.

Yu Meng was brought into the bushes, controlled by two men. She stopped and the man facing her suddenly pulled out a gun from her pocket.

It was aimed at the center of Yu Meng’s forehead.

Yu Meng’s heart sank. Her entire body was ice-cold.

Without a word, the man released the safety catch and started to pull the trigger.

“Ugh!”

Yu Meng could not make a sound, nor could she struggle. Even if she did her best, it would still be the same.

The black gun barrel in front of her caused her to be filled with fear and despair. Death had come too suddenly and it felt like a dream.

However, the chilliness and the trembling fear around her made every part of her feel so real, so real that it reminded Yu Meng that she was going to die.

He died just like that.

She still had so much to do. Was he really going to die like this?

Tears welled up in Yu Meng’s eyes. She shook her head with all her might, and in the end, she closed her eyes in despair.

“Bam!”

A gunshot rang out, but Yu Meng didn’t feel any pain.

She carefully opened her eyes and saw the man in black on the ground, the crooked bullet, and the man who had knocked down the man in black.

After a short pause, the man stood up and knocked out the two men in black who were controlling Yu Meng. He quickly placed Yu Meng behind him, and told him coldly to the only remaining black-clothed person on the ground.

“As long as I’m here, no one can touch her.”

This sentence was something he wanted them to bring to someone else. The black-clothed person’s heart was as clear as a mirror.

The man held Yu Meng’s hand, kicked the unconscious man in black out of his sight, and then left with Yu Meng.

Yu Meng’s mouth was still stuffed with a cloth. She had been running alongside the man the whole time. Her legs were in excruciating pain, and her mouth felt as if it was split open.

They got into a car, an old van with broken windows that made people wonder if it had been scrapped.

As the car drove on, Shang Hui helped her to remove the cloth in her mouth.

“Are you hurt?”

They sat side by side, his hand on the cushion behind Yu Meng’s back, one on his chest.

Yu Meng shook her head and looked at Shang Hui’s hand. Although he was wearing black, the red that was slowly seeping out from between his fingers made Yu Meng’s heart jump.

“You’re hurt?!”

Yu Meng quickly pulled Shang Hui’s hands away, wanting to take a look at his clothes.

“Did I hit you with that shot just now?! Did he hurt his vital parts? Let me see! We need to stop the bleeding first! ”

Yu Meng was so anxious that her words were incoherent. Shang Hui quietly waited for her to finish speaking, her mouth still holding a little smile.

He explained patiently, speaking slowly, probably because he did not have the strength to speak. “Not just now. This is the injury from before. It has already been treated.”

“How could that be? How could you do that before? ”

Before Yu Meng could finish her question, the car stopped.

“This is all I can do for you.” The one who got off the driver’s seat was Song Ci.

He looked at Shang Hui and Yu Meng and spoke helplessly.

“Next up, you guys can drive away wherever you want to go. Don’t let me know.” He looked at the pale Shang Hui and could not help but turn away, sighing as though he was feeling guilty: “Don’t blame me for being disloyal, I do not dare to go against Old Master Shang, when we return I will have to confess to him, you guys do not have much time, go ahead, I will tell Old Master Shang everything that I know, sorry, I was born afraid of death, so … “Don’t let me know where you are …”

“Song Ci…” Yu Meng could not help but ask, “But what about Shang Hui’s injuries? It’s impossible without you! ”

“There’s a medicine box on the carriage, I left the medicine box with you guys. I only treated Shang Hui’s previous gunshot wound simply, after that you have to make sure that his wound doesn’t open again and he won’t get infected, and that he can hold on for a while. If this storm ends, and you guys are lucky and still alive, I can think of a way to help you guys …”

After Song Ci finished speaking, he left, leaving Yu Meng with a stomach full of questions that she could not answer.

But at least she knew that time was running out, not the time to answer her questions.

Yu Meng clenched her teeth and climbed into the driver’s seat, replacing Song Ci.

“Where are we going now?” Yu Meng started the car and looked at Shang Hui through the rearview mirror. His face was already so white that it was almost transparent.

“Just find a random place with no people around.”

Shang Hui said softly. He really did not seem to have any strength left, to be able to rush over like this despite suffering such heavy injuries without regard for his life. Just thinking of this caused her heart to ache incessantly.

Yu Meng didn’t know where to go either, so she kept driving. The more she drove, the less people there were.

It was dark, and Yu Meng parked in front of an abandoned factory. There were birds chirping and insects chirping, but no signs of humans, not even wild dogs.

Yu Meng was a little afraid, but when she turned around and saw that Shang Hui had fainted, she had no choice but to force herself to become brave.

They would be all right, she believed.
