Chapter 158: Wu Mengting in Trouble
Zhang Yufei heard Chen Tianlong beginning to slip up and immediately became anxious, hurriedly interrupting him. When Chen Tianlong turned back to look at her, he saw Zhang Yufei blushing deeply, clearly out of embarrassment, and he quickly caught on.
"Eating, huh, I like that," Chen Tianlong quickly replied.
On the side, Zhao Bing furrowed his brow. How could he not be aware of the humiliation Zhang Yufei endured inside? But working in their line of duty, what could possibly be done?
After getting off the police car, it was already nine o’clock. Chen Tianlong fumbled around to call Wu Mengting to prevent her from worrying.
However, after the call went through, no one answered. Chen Tianlong thought for a moment; it was only nine o’clock, Wu Mengting couldn’t be asleep already.
At this time, Wu Mengting was in a presidential suite on the top floor of the Bitian Hotel. This hotel belonged to the Xu Family, so, of course, they would find the most comfortable place for her.
Moreover, tonight, Mo Shaoyun’s intentions were obvious. He had already arranged for a bunch of brothers to hide in the room, waiting to teach Chen Tianlong a painful lesson and planned to gang up on Wu Mengting.
Once Wu Mengting entered the room, she sensed something was off. Discussing a matter shouldn’t require such a large room, right?
Because Wu Mengting was nervous, she had put her phone on vibrate and placed it in her bag, so she didn’t hear the calls from Chen Tianlong.
After making five consecutive calls without an answer, Chen Tianlong felt something was wrong and hurriedly called Wu Mengting’s close friend, Tang Qiqi.
Then, surprisingly, Tang Qiqi said that Wu Mengting had gone out to handle some matters and hadn’t returned yet.
In his haste, Chen Tianlong looked around, his gaze fixing on the big letters of the police station, so he rushed inside.
At this time, Zhao Bing and others had not gone far. Chen Tianlong shouted, "Director Zhao, can you do me a favor?"
"Oh? Chen Tianlong, what’s the matter, why so anxious?" Zhao Bing, seeing the worried look on Chen Tianlong’s face, seemed to sense something was wrong.
"There’s no time. Director, could you check this number? I’m dialing it now; can you see where it is?" Chen Tianlong didn’t explain much, but Zhao Bing also felt the urgency of the matter.
"Order to track down the signal receiver of Chen Tianlong’s cellphone immediately," Zhao Bing said.
A subordinate nodded and quickly headed to the technical department while Chen Tianlong kept dialing.
After things quieted down for a moment, Hao Jian went to make coffee for Wu Mengting on purpose, secretly drugging it. To ensure Wu Mengting cooperated obediently and they could all have a good time, some extra ingredient was necessary.
At this moment, Wu Mengting also felt the vibration of her phone in her bag. But she couldn’t just answer the call like that. If Hao Jian was up to something, it might alert him and force him to act ahead of schedule.
"Hao Jian, I’m going to the bathroom first," Wu Mengting said unhurriedly.
"Yeah, there’s one in the room, right over there." Hao Jian had already locked the door, so he wasn’t worried about Wu Mengting escaping, thus thinking nothing of it.
After Wu Mengting reached the bathroom, she hastily took out her phone and was stunned to find several missed calls from Chen Tianlong.
She was about to call back when Chen Tianlong called again, and Wu Mengting hurriedly answered.
Just at that moment, the bathroom door swung open, and in came Hao Jian.
Earlier, Young Master Mo thought since they’d enjoy this girl tonight, having missed peeking at her in school, now was a rare opportunity not to be missed.
So, originally intending to eavesdrop a bit before entering, he hadn’t expected to hear Wu Mengting taking a call.
"Mengting, where are you? I’ve called so many times, and you haven’t answered,"
"Ah~~"
Just as Chen Tianlong finished speaking, an "ah" sound came from the other side, followed by a clang as the phone fell to the floor.
"You damn woman, on the phone..."
"Hao Jian, what do you want to do?" Though the phone was on the floor, the call was still connected. Wu Mengting, seeing this, deliberately spoke up.
"Hehe, nothing much. Don’t you want to save Chen Tianlong? Then you better behave, sit with me, and just chat, don’t be nervous."
Hao Jian didn’t realize the person calling Wu Mengting was actually Chen Tianlong.
In his mind, Chen Tianlong should be in a holding cell by now, and the thought of his gang playing with Chen Tianlong’s woman soon got him a little excited.
"Alright, let’s go out and chat," Wu Mengting didn’t pick up the phone but followed Hao Jian out, looking extremely tense.
Hao Jian knew Wu Mengting was like a cooked duck she wasn’t going to escape, so he thought to savor this, and once she drank the coffee he had personally made, she’d be theirs to toy with.
A few minutes later, they were both sitting on the sofa, with Hao Jian deliberately sitting so close to Wu Mengting that he could almost embrace her with a reach of his arm.
But he didn’t rush, instead, handing Wu Mengting a cup of hot coffee, crossing his legs, and deliberately acting casually towards her.
And Wu Mengting knew Hao Jian had no good intentions and that the coffee likely had an issue.
"You...what will it take for you to let Chen Tianlong go?" Wu Mengting knew Chen Tianlong was out; otherwise, he couldn’t have called, and she knew escaping was impossible now.
The only thing she could do was wait, wait for Chen Tianlong to come to her rescue.
"What do you think?"
As Hao Jian spoke, he gradually extended his hand, attempting to touch Wu Mengting’s hand.
But Wu Mengting didn’t let him succeed, quickly retracting her hand, "Hao Jian, we’re schoolmates, please show some respect."
"Hehe, then what do you think you have to offer in exchange?" Hao Jian openly pressed forward.
"I... I beg you, Hao Jian, let me do whatever you need in the future, just let Chen Tianlong go," Wu Mengting gritted her teeth.
"Oh? Anything?" Hao Jian smirked playfully, directly stretching out his hand to touch Wu Mengting’s hand, gently stroking it.
Wu Mengting felt a bit sickened but endured it. She had to buy more time...
At the police station, as soon as Wu Mengting answered the call, the technician had located the exact position.
"The signal is coming from the Bitian Hotel, eight kilometers away," the technician said.
Chen Tianlong thought for a moment, then said to Zhao Bing, "Director Zhao, can I borrow a car?"
"Sure."
"Chen Tianlong, I’ll go with you."
At this point, Zhang Yufei volunteered. Previously, Chen Tianlong had helped her, and in return, it was right for her to help him. Chen Tianlong nodded; he didn’t want to waste time, and the two quickly headed out.
Two minutes later, the police car sped furiously down the road. Though Zhang Yufei usually didn’t seem like much, in this emergency, her driving was more impressive than Chen Tianlong, rushing through red lights, leaving Chen Tianlong surprised.
In the Bitian Hotel, after a while, Hao Jian found it uninteresting. Although Wu Mengting was much prettier than the women he’d been with, touching just her hand couldn’t satisfy his hunger.
