Feng Yongqing had never expected that Yu Zhaodi, who used to be timid and fearful, would suddenly muster up such great courage. Though she didn’t directly curse at Meng Yanzhi’s face, it was almost the same thing.
Who else has ever dared to speak to Meng Yanzhi like this?
They said he was taken in by the Meng Family.
Though that statement was true, and the matter itself was real, for Meng Yanzhi, this was something utterly untouchable, something that no one dared to mention without facing severe consequences.
"Ah..."
Yu Zhaodi suddenly screamed.
Meng Yanzhi’s towering figure approached, his large hand gripping her chin. His pupils contracted as he looked down at Yu Zhaodi, with her words undeniably exposing Meng Yanzhi’s most embarrassing secrets under the glaring sunlight.
"Heh, are you thinking about killing to silence me again?" Yu Zhaodi, struggling to speak while looking up, her expression resolute.
Meng Yanzhi felt something amiss, then suddenly, pain stabbed through his abdomen.
Lowering his head, Meng Yanzhi saw a dagger plunged into his stomach, and copious amounts of blood flowed out.
He was filled with disbelief.
Subconsciously loosening his grip, Meng Yanzhi pushed Yu Zhaodi away.
Yet, Yu Zhaodi clung firmly to Meng Yanzhi’s hand, she pulled out the dagger, seemingly indifferent to the blood on her hands, and raised her hand to stab again, as if only by doing so could she release the anger in her heart.
"Mr. Meng." Feng Yongqing reacted a little slowly, letting out a gasp when he realized Meng Yanzhi was stabbed. As Yu Zhaodi raised her hand again, Feng Yongqing leaped forward from behind, snatched the dagger from her hand, and then kicked Yu Zhaodi aside.
Feng Yongqing approached anxiously, saying, "Mr. Meng, are you... okay?"
"Yu Zhaodi, when have I ever silenced someone by killing them?" Meng Yanzhi, clutching his wound, stared intensely at Yu Zhaodi. He had always felt something was amiss with Yu Zhaodi, and now, he finally understood why.
In pain, Yu Zhaodi struggled to get up, with slight bruises evident on her chin from Meng Yanzhi’s tight grip.
Yu Zhaodi did not respond to Meng Yanzhi, her eyes fixed on his abdomen. She had not hit the right spot just now; if only she had aimed slightly higher.
Feng Yongqing’s eyes flickered as he stepped forward quickly, grabbing Yu Zhaodi, and slapping her twice, saying, "Mr. Meng is asking you a question; why aren’t you responding?"
Yu Zhaodi bit her lip, remaining silent.
Meng Yanzhi, while taking a medical kit out of his backpack and treating his wound, said, "Yu Zhaodi, even if you don’t speak, I can still find out."
"Meng Yanzhi, isn’t ruining my family enough? You want to harm us more?" At the mention of him going to investigate, Yu Zhaodi shuddered to think what her grandmother would endure if she knew.
"When have I ever harmed you?" Meng Yanzhi retorted.
The Yu Family?
Meng Yanzhi tried hard to recall but couldn’t remember anything.
"Two years ago, in Hu Province, Baijia County." Yu Zhaodi said through clenched teeth, reminding him. She had dreamt of revenge, and had even been admitted to Jinghua University in Jing City, only to find that her nemesis didn’t even remember her.
A chill ran through Yu Zhaodi’s heart.
"You..." Meng Yanzhi, a flicker of realization crossing his mind, asked, "Are you from that family I hit with my car?"
Yu Zhaodi and Mrs. Yu insisted on suing them since they hadn’t even seen the people involved since the incident.
On the day of Mr. Yu’s funeral, Mrs. Yu suddenly left the house, took the money, handed it to her brother, and then, above the new house that Mr. Yu built, she jumped off and died.
Within a few days, Yu Zhaodi lost both parents.
Yu Zhaodi felt like the sky had fallen.
She refused to accept that money, seeing it as blood money for her father’s life. She wanted those responsible to receive their rightful punishment, and she pursued legal action, which finally caused a stir.
Sadly, the person who was brought forth was just a scapegoat.
She distinctly remembered that this person was not the one she saw at court.
Yu Zhaodi suddenly realized she could not fight these people on her own, so she harbored her resentment and began secretly following Boss Meng. Indeed, she stumbled upon a photo of Boss Meng with a young man.
Yu Zhaodi then confirmed who this person was.
While attending university, she kept investigating who this person was and finally uncovered that the driver that fateful night was Meng Yanzhi.
"Car accident?" Feng Yongqing, listening on the side, was somewhat confused. A car accident two years ago... some pieces started to fall into place for him.
Two years ago, when Meng Yanzhi was under the strict control of Meng Jin, was his most rebellious period. Later, Meng Yanzhi went out to relax, and subsequently, he was arrested and confined.
Feng Yongqing thought at the time it was because Meng Yanzhi had angered Meng Jin again, but he hadn’t expected that it also involved a human life?
