Chapter 493: Chapter 493: What dicine is Sold in the Gourd?
Shen Heyu arrived at the hotel first.
She stopped when she saw the number 1121 on the door plaque, and involuntarily recalled the words Pei Yansi had said to her earlier, knowing full well that this was a trap, yet unsure what Chen Wenzhou was really brewing this ti.
Shen Heyu took out her phone, and just then, the door in front of her was unexpectedly opened. Caught off guard, she looked up to et Chen Wenzhou’s smiling eyes.
Seeing his expression, Shen Heyu didn’t co closer. Instead, she felt a chill down her spine, sensing that sothing bad was about to happen.
Chen Wenzhou looked at his watch briefly and then fully opened the door in front of him, stepping aside for Shen Heyu as he complinted, “Miss Shen is really punctual.”
Shen Heyu’s eyes fell on the presidential suite that now lay before her, her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead. Her instincts scread at her not to enter the room, for who knew what could happen.
“What is your purpose for summoning here today?” Shen Heyu maintained her suspicion towards Chen Wenzhou, not easing into the trap he had laid.
Chen Wenzhou noticed Shen Heyu’s wariness. Smiling, he stepped out from behind the door, walking toward Shen Heyu step by step. As he ca closer, she almost instinctively stepped backward, maintaining a distance from him.
“No matter what my purpose is, from the mont you stepped into this hotel, I had already achieved my goal. The surveillance in the hallway is broken, so whether you enter this room or not, it’s tantamount to the sa thing.”
Hearing his hint, Shen Heyu looked up at the surveillance cara, whose indicator light was indeed off, unlike when she had stepped into the elevator earlier.
“You really did not summon here today with good intentions,” Shen Heyu subconsciously clenched her teeth, extrely wary of the man in front of her.
“Miss Shen, you don’t need to look at like that; after all, I’ve taken good care of your daughter for so long. Even if I haven’t earned rits, I’ve certainly suffered hardships. Let’s discuss inside.”
Shaless.
Shen Heyu gritted her teeth, glowering at the man in front of her, who even now managed to utter such words.
“No need, just tell directly, what your true purpose is for finding today. After you finish speaking, I must leave this place.”
Chen Wenzhou realized that Shen Heyu wouldn’t easily fall into his trap, but this was beyond her control. With Yuexue in his hands, whether Chen Wenzhou forced or invited her, she would inevitably co in—without exceptions.
Seeing Shen Heyu so resistant, Chen Wenzhou didn’t waste further words with her and turned to walk towards the living room.
“Miss Shen, if you ca here intending to keep the appointnt, then please co in. If you prefer not to enter, you may leave now. Rest assured, I absolutely will not force you, but I will make choices corresponding to your decision.”
“You understand what I an, right?”
Chen Wenzhou pulled out his phone, opened his photo gallery, and then turned the phone screen toward Shen Heyu. She imdiately saw a picture of her daughter.
Her fists clenched by her sides, ultimately Shen Heyu decided to enter the suite in front of her.
Chen Wenzhou knew she would cooperate. Once Shen Heyu was inside, he turned around to close the door.
“Actually, I invited Miss Shen today just to watch a good play. Be patient, the show is about to begin.” Chen Wenzhou poured himself a glass of whiskey, watching the highly alert woman in front of him.
“Would you like a drink?” Chen Wenzhou offered to Shen Heyu, but she refused.
Shen Heyu watched Chen Wenzhou’s every move vigilantly, wary that there might be sothing added to the drink, especially considering she had previously been tricked here.
She didn’t speak, but her silent refusal was already evident in her eyes. Chen Wenzhou didn’t force Shen Heyu, as inviting her for drinks wasn’t his actual motive.
Moreover, today’s drink was quite normal, without any unwanted additives.
Chen Wenzhou casually sipped his drink, and Shen Heyu found herself understanding him less and less. She questioned again, “What exactly do you want by coming to see today?”
Just then, a scream ca from the closed bedroom behind Shen Heyu.
It was a woman’s scream.
The scream was so sudden and sharp that it caught everyone off guard; Shen Heyu shuddered, her shoulders contracting inward.
Shen Heyu cautiously turned around. Was there soone else in the room?
She turned back to look at Chen Wenzhou, who had already set down his wine glass with a smile.
“The show has already begun, Miss Shen. Aren’t you curious about why I ca to see you today? You might want to open that door and see for yourself.”
“What exactly are you plotting?” Shen Heyu furrowed her brows, not imdiately rising to open the door. She was worried that opening it would be like opening Pandora’s Box, only bringing misfortune.
“If you really want to know, then open that door. If you don’t want to know, there’s the door; you can leave now.”
Hearing his pretentiously generous words, Shen Heyu scoffed, “Do I really have the freedom to leave?”
“Miss Shen is indeed a wise person. You certainly don’t have the freedom to leave, as your daughter’s life is in my hands. If you dare to leave this place without my permission, she will be punished.”
“So, the only choice laid before now is to open that door and accept all your arrangents, correct?”
Shen Heyu glared coldly at Chen Wenzhou; he was utterly despicable.
“Please, Miss Shen, aren’t you also curious about what happened in that room? Since you’re curious, why not check it out for yourself?”
Chen Wenzhou stood up and gestured for Shen Heyu to proceed; her hands clenched into tighter fists.
Shen Heyu stepped slowly towards the door, lifting her hand to grasp the tal doorknob, which felt as cold as ice.
Before opening the door, Shen Heyu looked back at Chen Wenzhou.
“No matter what tricks you have up your sleeve, I will not let you succeed.”
Chen Wenzhou didn’t take Shen Heyu’s severe words to heart because everything was already set in stone, and nothing could be changed.
“Well, let’s see if Miss Shen has the capability.”
With a creak,
Shen Heyu opened the door, and thereby opened Pandora’s Box, just as she had anticipated. Opening Pandora’s Box ant that all disasters and misfortunes would burst forth.
“Ah!”
The mont the door opened, a woman, barely clothed, clutched her hair and scread.
