Chapter 209 - Everything Goes Haywire (2)

Jiang Ruiling panicked.

Where did it go wrong? The waiter was supposed to bring Wen Yaoting here. Who is this man? If he is here, then where is Wen Yaoting?

The man laughed. "Come on my dear Ruiling, let's have some fun before the ceremony begins~~"

She forced herself to calm down and awkwardly smiled. "I think there is a misunderstanding. You have entered the wrong room."

"Haha, how can I mistake my fiance's room?"

"You are not Wen Yaoting. I saw your face just a few moments ago. Who are you?"

Silence.

Seconds ticked by and that made her more anxious. Her plan went awry somehow, and she didn't know how to fix it.

"Ah, that small flash of light huh? Tsk, it gave me away. What a pain. But it doesn't matter anyway. We can still have fun."

She shuddered. Jiang Ruiling slowly got up on her feet with her heart pounding in her chest.

Why hasn't Shen Yang returned yet?

For now, her only hope was him, and until then, she had to buy time.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

"Me? I said it doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that I am supposed to enjoy my time with you~~"

In the darkness, she faintly saw his figure approaching her. She trembled and stepped back.

"I am telling you that this is a mistake. You have misunderstood me for someone else."

He chuckled. "I haven't. I have specifically got money to do this. How can I mistake you? My orders are to humiliate Jiang Ruiling. You are Jiang Ruiling, aren't you?"

She froze.

Money? Order? Who would plot against me?

She particularly had no personal enemies.

Is it some Jiang family's enemy?

Somehow, her plan and Jiang family's enemy plan clashed tonight leading to this situation.

She curled her fingers into a fist. "Who gave you the orders?"

The man yawned. "You don't need to know that. I just have to fulfill my order so that I get the rest of my money in my account."

"How much that person has given you. I will give you double of it. Just leave from here."

He burst into sinister laughter. "Hahaha! You are one feisty woman! Even in this situation, you are striking a deal with me. I will get enough money from my source. But where will I get the chance of eating a beautiful woman like you huh?"

She stiffened and gritted her teeth.

Damn it! Even money isn't working on him! I have to do something to get out of here!

Her phone was dead or she would have quickly called Shen Yang. Even if the man would have snatched her phone, it didn't matter as long as the call went through.

Fortunately, it was dark in the room, so she thought of fooling him.

"I-I really can give you all the money you want. Just say the number and you will get it. But please let me go…"

As she said that, she slowly shifted to her side to take a turn. She was trying to put a safe distance between them so that she could run towards the door and escape.

Jiang Ruiling kept talking to him and as soon as she got her chance, she stormed off. She grabbed the doorknob, but to her horror, it didn't budge.

"Hahaha! You thought that you could fool me with that? The door is locked dear, both from inside and outside. There is nowhere for you to go."

It wasn't visible in the darkness, but her face turned pale. She shivered and felt as if she lost her energy.

"Oh, and if you are waiting for your bodyguard to come and save you, then save your breath. He is locked up too. There is no way he could protect you from me!"

She froze.

Shen Yang!

Now she was deathly afraid for her own as well as Shen Yang's safety.

What is happening...how could things go wrong?

"Ah!"

The man suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her. "Now let's begin dear! I cannot wait."

Tears pooled in her eyes and she resisted with all her force. She pushed him back with all her strength.

"You are going to need more than that honey to push me away. Now let's get to it. I don't have much time because your guests are going to come soon to see you all messed up and in your bodyguard's arms."

She widened her eyes.

Huh? Bodyguard's arms?

He dragged her towards the bed. "Leave me!"

She was about to scream but the man already understood her intentions and blocked her mouth.

"Na, na, na. Don't be so hasty," his voice whispered near her ear, making her feel disgusted. "Don't shout so soon. We haven't even started yet."

"Mmmpf!!"

She flailed her arms and legs and hit him wherever she could, but it didn't affect him at all. His grasp tightened on her arm, making her wince in pain.

He threw her on the bed and loomed on top of her.

"Mmmnn!! Mnnn!!!"

All her resistance was futile. The adrenaline rushing in her blood, setting panic and fear in her heart.

What was my mistake…

I just wanted to be with Shen Yang. I just wanted us to be together. Old Madam would have never allowed it. I had no choice but to go this far!

Then where was I wrong?

A tear slipped down her eye.

Shen Yang…

I am sorry…I am really sorry. I ruined everything…

---

Twenty minutes later, the power finally came back and everybody sighed in relief.

"Finally!"

The Old Madam let out a breath. She looked for Wen Qiang. "Let's not waste time and begin the ceremony. It has already been so late."

He nodded. "Yes, yes!"

He looked around and got anxious.

Where is my idiot son! Don't tell me he is fooling around with some woman again! For God's sake, it's his engagement tonight.

Damn if anyone sees him, it will all be over!

"I will check where Wen Yaoting is…"

"No need to look for me, Dad. I am right here."

He turned and saw Wen Yaoting standing before him, smiling at him.
