  The Duke’s wife guarded Long Mei in the room. A moment later, she came out of the bathroom with a basin of water and used a towel to gently wipe Long Mei’s face.

  Long Mei slowly woke up.

  Opening her eyes, she looked at the intricate ceiling and was dazed for a moment.

  “You’re awake?”


  Hearing the voice of the Duke’s wife, Long Mei shifted her gaze. Seeing the Duke’s wife sitting by the bed with a worried expression, her face slightly pale and her eyes slightly red, Long Mei supported her sore and soft body to sit up.

  Her head was still a little dizzy. Long Mei massaged her temples and asked hoarsely, “Madam, what happened to me?”


  She remembered that Lou Lan had accidentally wet her dress. She found Xiao Ying and went to her room to change. After changing, the two of them were planning to leave. However, she had just reached the door when she felt dizzy.

  Her physical condition had always been good and this rarely happened.

  “Madam, where’s my sister-in-law?”


  At the mention of Xiao Ying, the Duke’s wife’s eyes turned even redder. Where had the poor child been taken to? She hoped that she would not be in danger.

  Long Mei had a bad feeling when she saw the expression on the Duchess’ face.

  “Madam, did something happen?”


  This matter involved Long Mei’s boyfriend. If she told Long Mei about it, she would definitely feel bad about it.

  Just as the Duke’s wife was hesitating about saying it, Long Mei grabbed her hand. “Madam, please tell me what happened. If you don’t, I’ll ask my brother now.”


  The Duchess sighed. “Ying’er was taken away by your boyfriend. When your boyfriend came to bid farewell to you and my husband, he was holding Ying’er. At that time, her hair covered her face and she was wearing your dress. We thought that it was you so we didn’t stop him, but who knew…”


  Long Mei’s heart tightened uncontrollably.

  Her mind was blank and her ears were ringing. She looked at the Duke’s wife in disbelief.

  She did not want to believe her words, but the truth was right in front of her and she had to believe it.

  The expression on Long Mei’s face froze and she stood motionless, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

  “Why are you looking at me like that?”


  “My baby is pretty.”


  “I know I’m pretty, but I don’t believe you have never met a girl who’s prettier than me.”


  “I have.”


  “Who?”


  “Your sister-in-law. She looks more beautiful than you.”


  That day, he had spoken well of her sister-in-law. At that time, she had not thought much of it. Could it be that he had taken a liking to her sister-in-law at that time?

  Long Mei hugged her body with both hands and felt a chill run down her spine.

  The man, who had always cared for her and said that he would love her for the rest of her life, had actually betrayed her and kidnapped her sister-in-law?

  He was a bastard!

  “Madam, where’s my brother?”


  “He went to check the surveillance cameras.”


  Long Mei staggered out of the room.

  She went to the surveillance room and was about to push open the door when she heard Long Ming’s cold voice. “They took the Jiang family’s plane and left?”


  Long Mei could not hear what the person on the other end of the call had said. She only heard Long Ming’s voice turning colder. “Find out where they took the Jiang family’s plane as soon as possible. If you can’t find the exact location, I will take your lives!”


  After Long Ming finished his call, he turned around and saw Long Mei standing at the door of the surveillance room. Long Ming’s cold jaw was clenched tightly, his deep eyes reflecting a sharp coldness.

  Long Mei lowered her head. Under Long Ming’s murderous gaze, she walked forward slowly like a child who had made a mistake. “Brother, I’m sorry.”


  Long Ming never interfered with Long Mei’s private life. After all, she was an adult and had her own thoughts. In Long Ming’s eyes, Long Mei was also a smart and opinionated girl.

  But who would have thought that she would fall into the hands of a man?

  The last time on the island, he had reminded her to keep her eyes open.

  However, she had fallen deeper and deeper, and today, she had caused a disaster.

  Long Ming clenched his hands into fists, the veins on the back of his hands popping up. Every word was like a sharp blade. “If anything happens to her, I’ll make your boyfriend pay with his life!”


  Long Mei lowered her head even more.

  She was living a life worse than death currently.

  This kind of hurt and betrayal was a hundred times more painful than stabbing her heart with a knife.

  Had he always been putting on an act when he had been so affectionate to her?

  The tears in Long Mei’s eyes fell uncontrollably.

  Long Ming furrowed his straight eyebrows when he saw Long Mei’s tears. She rarely cried and he could understand her feelings now. However, could she blame others?

  Long Ming still had a dark expression on his face as he spoke coldly, his voice like ice in the cold winter. “Tell me everything about your boyfriend.”


  Long Mei knew that crying was useless now. She sniffled, took out her phone, and found an identification card in the photo album.

  “Sun Jin, 25 years old, from B Country.”


  Long Ming sent the man’s identity to his secretary and ordered them to find this person as soon as possible.

  But after a few minutes, the chief secretary called back. Sun Jin was indeed a real person, but he looked different from the person in the photo.

  In other words, the identity card was fake.

  Long Mei was completely stunned. How could it be fake?

  After she started dating Sun Jin, she had met his family and he had even taken her to his home in Y Country. At that time, she had been very envious of his family’s happy and harmonious interactions.

  Long Ming looked at Long Mei’s shocked expression and a cold smirk appeared on his lips. “He wanted to lie to you, so he naturally had to make it look real. Long Mei, I didn’t expect you to do such a stupid thing!”


  Long Mei took a few steps back unsteadily. She crouched down and hugged her head in pain.

  Long Ming was not in the mood to comfort Long Mei. His thoughts were all on Xiao Ying now. If anything happened to her, how would he explain it to Wan Bao? How would he spend the rest of his life?

  …


  Xiao Ying had been unconscious for a long time.

  Whenever she showed signs of waking up, the people around her would put the drug at the tip of her nose to let her continue sleeping after smelling it.

  She did not know how long she had been asleep. When she woke up again, she was still a little groggy.

  Opening her eyes slowly, she stared at the luxurious and retro-styled chandelier above her and at the European-style wall cabinet. Her mind was blank for a few seconds.

  Who was she? Where was she?

  After a while, her memories slowly returned.

  She had brought Long Mei to her room to change into a gown. However, before they could walk out of the room, their limbs turned weak and they could not stand properly. After Long Mei fainted, she had also fainted.

  When she woke up again, she was already in this place.

  Xiao Ying blinked and looked at her surroundings. For a moment, it didn’t feel unfamiliar.

  Could this be…
