She took a deep breath before continuing, "I saw Meng Yuehuan being affectionate with a man."

"Maybe it's Li Junfeng!" Shen Mengyao was too lazy to pay attention to them. Now, giving them a look would be a gift to them!

"No, that man's figure is far from that of Li Junfeng!" Cui smiled and clenched her fists: "It's really refreshing, Li Junfeng is so hateful, but he also gets cuckolded."

Shen Mengyao had mixed feelings, mostly filled with emotion. This might be what people often say: poor couples have many sorrows.

Cuiwei suddenly suggested: "How about we tell Li Junfeng about this?"

Shen Mengyao shook her head calmly: "Forget it, it's better to have less trouble than more. Their affairs have nothing to do with me."

"Princess..." Cuiwei licked the corner of her lips, with a hesitant expression on her face.

"The real meaning of letting go is that their affairs have nothing to do with me. Why should I get involved? It will only get me into trouble." Shen Mengyao turned around and walked outside.

Cuiwei seemed to understand something and hurriedly followed.

Shen Mengyao returned to the restaurant and began to prepare for the opening of a teahouse. She knew that the teahouse and the restaurant complemented each other, and once successful, her business territory would be greatly expanded.

I have been busy with this matter these days, and Meng Yuehuan prepared everything outside before telling Li Junfeng.

"Let's get started today!"

Li Junfeng was still a little hesitant: "But..."

"If you delay any longer, your mother will ignore all medical treatment and you will really be beyond help." Meng Yuehuan narrowed her cold eyes.

Li Junfeng finally made up his mind: "Are the people you found reliable?"

Meng Yuehuan narrowed her eyes, "Of course, they have already found out that Shen Mengyao went to Shuiyunjian during the day and returned late at night. This ninth floor is very likely her new business. Now that she is so rich, she is unwilling to spend a few taels of silver to save your mother. It is really hateful. We must teach her a lesson."

Li Junfeng listened and nodded with gritted teeth.

When he was about to go there in person, he suddenly coughed a few times as he walked! He covered his mouth and coughed for a long time before stopping, and his hand was bright red!

Meng Yuehuan naturally saw it as well and narrowed her eyes.

"what happened?"

Li Junfeng came back to his senses. Not wanting to make him worry, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Maybe I was too tired the past two days, so I caught a cold."

Meng Yuehuan's eyes flickered slightly, but after a moment of tenderness, they were filled with sinisterness and coldness again: "Then don't go, leave it to me!"

Late at night, Shen Mengyao came out from the water and clouds and stretched lazily!

Cuiwei pinched her shoulders and said, "Princess, you can't work so hard like this. You need to take a break. It's so dark every night. It's scary."

"Once things are on the right track, there's no need to come so often." Shen Mengyao yawned and got into the sedan chair.

Several sedan chair bearers lowered their heads and buried their faces in the shadows.

Cuiwei followed immediately.

The night was as dark as ink, and everything was silent. Only the occasional sound of the night watchman broke the tranquility. Shen Mengyao's sedan chair slowly moved on the street back to her mansion. She leaned on the soft cushion, closed her eyes and rested, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart. This inexplicable feeling made her unconsciously tighten the handkerchief in her hand.

"Princess, the wind is a bit cold tonight, you should put on a cloak." Cuiwei said with concern, taking a soft fox fur cloak from the side and gently draping it on Shen Mengyao's shoulders.

Shen Mengyao opened her eyes and smiled slightly to show her gratitude, but the uneasiness in her heart did not dissipate. She whispered, "Cuiwei, do you feel that tonight is a little different?"

Cuiwei heard this and looked around. Except for the occasional rustling of leaves in the night breeze, there was nothing unusual. "Princess, maybe you have been too tired recently and think too much."

she comforted.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind the sedan chair, covered Cuiwei's mouth and nose to prevent her from screaming, and slapped her neck with a knife.

Cuiwei fainted before she could utter a sound and fell on the street.

The sedan bearers moved faster and faster, but in another direction.

In the night, even the slightest movement is so clear!

Shen Mengyao's heart trembled, and she sat up straight suddenly, with a fierce look in her eyes. "Stop the sedan!" She shouted in a deep voice, and although her voice was light, it carried unquestionable majesty.

The sedan bearers did not stop, but walked faster and faster!

Shen Mengyao, who realized something was wrong, wanted to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, but at this moment, a peculiar fragrance suddenly came in. She instantly felt her breathing quicken and her legs go weak!

My consciousness seemed to be gradually fading away, and the light in front of my eyes was getting dimmer and dimmer.

Oh no, this is an incense!

I really fell into a trap for a moment. When I got into the sedan chair just now, I didn't even notice that the bearers had been replaced!

Her head tilted and she fainted. The sedan chair trotted briskly along in the dark night.

When Shen Mengyao regained consciousness, she found herself lying in a dim room, surrounded by thick curtains, with only a faint light coming in. The air was filled with a damp and musty smell, which made people feel uneasy. She tried to get up, but found that her hands and feet were tied tightly with ropes and she could not move.

"Finally you woke up. I was afraid that the dose was too high and you would never wake up in your lifetime!"

When she heard someone's voice, she realized that there was a man sitting in the dark corner, playing with a sharp knife in his hand.

Her head was still a little dizzy, but she pretended to be calm.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The man sneered, walked over and slapped a piece of paper and a pen in front of her.

"Write a letter! Write to your servants and ask them to prepare money to redeem your life."

"Kidnap me and extort money?" Shen Mengyao frowned, but when she thought about it carefully, she was a woman living alone and had a lot of money, so she was indeed the best target!

"Write quickly and stop talking nonsense." The man said viciously. He had a black scarf on his head, so it was hard to tell who he was and it was impossible to guess his identity!

Although Shen Mengyao was shocked, she tried to remain calm. She knew that any panic at this moment might put her in a more dangerous situation. She took a deep breath, glanced at the paper and pen, and quickly thought of a countermeasure in her mind.

These people are extremely vicious. Even if they get the ransom, they may not keep their promise and release her, so she can't just put her hope on the conscience of these people!

She picked up the pen and wrote: "How much ransom do you want?"

The man thought for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "Ten thousand taels."

"What! Ten thousand taels?" Shen Mengyao looked up in astonishment: "You think too highly of me, I don't have that much money, a little less, otherwise you won't get the money and it will be in vain."
