What medicine was this? It was actually so effective.
It had surpa.s.sed her expectations greatly.
As Tan Bengbeng was a doctor, the nature of her profession made her pick up the dark brown gla.s.s bottle and take another look at it.
She only threw it into the waste bin, regretfully, after she was certain that no drug name was indicated on it.
She did not head out immediately as she knew that the man was outside.
Instead, she walked back to the bed and stared at the stains on it. Holding in the discomfort in her heart, she found some clean bedsheets and changed the entire bed.
Before she slept, she made meticulous checks on the door and made sure that the inner and outer locks were all properly fastened.
Even the windows of the room were locked.
Not a single fly could enter.
As she lay back down on the bed, exhaustion swarmed up her body immediately.
She fell asleep the moment her eyes closed.
However, the second she fell asleep, the door that she had thought was indestructible was effortlessly opened by someone from the outside.
The man slowly wheeled his wheelchair into the room.
He swept his gaze past the waste bin. When he caught sight of the brown-colored medicine bottle in the waste bin, a smile seeped through his eyes.
The medicine was not poisonous and it was also medicine to cure the throat. However, he had added something to it that would make the consumer sleepy.
He did not like to see how she insisted on putting on her brave front when she was obviously so exhausted that both her legs were trembling.
It was still better for women to be gentle and obedient.
In that case, it would not be too tiring for them.
The man wheeled his wheelchair to the side of the bed.
He sat quietly on the wheelchair and stared at Tan Bengbeng, who was sinking into a deep sleep.
With a smile lingering beside his lips, he swept his long and narrow eyes past her body as well as the clothes that belonged to him.
However, his eyes turned icy cold again when his gaze landed on the untouched ginger soup, sitting on the table by the side of the bed.
The time that she had strangled his throat, with her fierce moves, seemed to flash past his eyes.
Other than that, the image when she had calmly asked him how she could leave this place after he had taken her innocence, appeared before his eyes too…
She was way too calm.
“Xiao Mumu… You must be happy…”
“It is most important for you to be happy…”
Tan Bengbeng, who was in the middle of her sleep, suddenly muttered something. She seemed to have dreamed of something.
The man was satisfied with the effectiveness of his medicine when he heard that her voice no longer sounded hoa.r.s.e. However, he frowned the moment he heard her sleep talking.
Why was she still so concerned about ensuring the happiness of someone else when she herself had landed in such a state?
After he had stared at her for a long while in the room, he coldly turned around and wheeled himself away.
–
Tan Bengbeng was really exhausted.
She had fallen into a deep sleep.
She had dreamed of many things, but she could not remember anything after she had woken up.
She looked around as she sat up on the bed. When she saw the rays of light that subtly seeped in from the windows a look of astonishment flashed past her eyes when she realized that she had actually slept till daylight.
She had never once had such a deep sleep…
As something flashed past her mind, she looked up at the side of the bed and realized that the ginger soup that was originally sitting atop had gone missing.
She immediately realized that no matter how careful she was, she had fallen into the man’s trap yet again.
The sleepiness in Tan Bengbeng disappeared immediately as she got off the bed and walked out.
She walked out of the room and looked around the living room. However, no one could be seen.
Her eyes flickered slightly and she started to look for a phone.
She headed into the other rooms to search since she could not find one in the living room.
However, she did not see any phones or laptops despite searching through every single room.
Tan Bengbeng walked to the last room. As she stood outside the room, she stared at the empty room, the hand on the door handle suddenly froze.
Something seemed to have flashed past her mind, but she could not catch the sudden thought.
She only realized what it was after she pondered over it again.
She had searched the entire house earlier on; not only had she not found any phones or laptops, but she had not detected any humans around either.
Where was that man?!
