The Malevolent Female Villain Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 139

Hospital.

At the center of Ye Jinchen's hospital room, a dining table was set up with two birthday cakes on top.

"Xu Wanwan, you've suffered a lot over the years. We're going to celebrate your birthday in a simple manner today. Once Jinmeng returns, we'll definitely throw a grand celebration for both of you," Gu Qi gently told Xu Wanwan as she lit the candles.

Xu Wanwan had been coming to the hospital to help look after Ye Jinchen and the bedridden Mr. and Mrs. Ye whenever she was not attending classes these days.

Xu Wanwan had never celebrated her birthday before. This time, the entire Ye family was unusually somber because of Ye Jinmeng's disappearance, so naturally, no one thought about celebrating a birthday.

However, the Ye family did not want Xu Wanwan to feel neglected, so they bought a cake and had a simple celebration.

"Thank you, mom and dad, thank you, grandpa and grandma, thank you, big brother." Xu Wanwan was deeply touched; it felt so good to have a family.

"Good girl, make a wish now," Mr. Ye patted Xu Wanwan on the shoulder and spoke at the right moment.

Xu Wanwan nodded, glanced at He Junting next to her, and slowly walked to the dining table. Looking at the two cakes on the table, one of them read "Safe and sound, Jinmeng", and the other read "Happy always, Wanwan". Xu Wanwan's eyes suddenly turned red.

She quickly closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and started making a wish.

"I hope we find Jinmeng soon, I hope Jinmeng is safe and sound, and forever happy."

She opened her eyes, blew out the candles, hoping that her first-ever birthday wish would come true soon.

After dinner, Ye Jinmeng stayed in the living room until ten o'clock, then said goodbye to Ye Junwen and Zhen Kechuan and went back to her room.

Thinking of her plan, Ye Jinmeng first took a bath in the bathroom. After drying her hair, she quietly opened the door of her room a crack. She listened carefully for any sounds downstairs, then closed the door and started making her "escape rope".

Ye Jinmeng opened her wardrobe, picked a few pieces of clothing that were sturdy and soft, and started tying knots.

Fortunately, she had watched many short videos on how to tie knots, and now they finally came in handy.

After tying all the clothes together, she estimated the length to be about 10 meters, which was definitely enough.

Holding the "rope", she tiptoed to the window, tied one end of the "rope" to the small guardrail in front of the window, stuffed the rest into the gap between the guardrail and the window, pulled the curtains, and went back to the side of the bed to check. After making sure there were no flaws, Ye Jinmeng breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the quartz clock, it was eleven fifty-five. Ye Jinmeng turned around and walked towards the door, thought of something, returned, and wore the pink diamond necklace around her neck.

Thinking of what she was about to do, Ye Jinmeng was a bit nervous. This thing could only succeed. If it failed, she would be ruined.

Ye Jinmeng composed herself, pushed open the door of her room, and walked downstairs.

When she got to Ye Junwen's door, Ye Jinmeng took a deep breath, raised her hand, and knocked on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Suppressing her voice, she called out, "Brother Junwen, are you asleep?"

Ye Junwen's sleep was always light, the knock on the door instantly rousing him. Recognizing it was Ye Jinmeng's voice, he quickly swung out of bed and opened the door.

"Mengmeng, what's wrong? Can't sleep?"

Ye Jinmeng looked somewhat flushed, her fingers nervously entwined, not daring to meet Ye Junwen's gaze.

"Junwen, can I call you Brother Junwen from now on? I...I think I slept too much during the day, and I can't sleep now. Could you... could you help me fall asleep?"

Having said that, Ye Jinmeng covered her blushing face in embarrassment.

Ye Junwen was shocked by this sudden initiative. His gaze drifted to the pink diamond necklace around Ye Jinmeng's neck, his eyes dark and unreadable. Swallowing, he said, "Alright."

"Well, let's go upstairs." Saying this, Ye Jinmeng gently grabbed Ye Junwen's sleeve and the two of them headed upstairs.

Once they reached Ye Jinmeng's bedroom, she crawled into bed and slid under the covers.

Ye Junwen stood by the bed, unsure of what to do.

Ye Jinmeng, her eyes round and innocent, looked at Ye Junwen from under the edge of the blanket. "Brother Junwen, could you tell me a story?"

Ye Junwen was slightly embarrassed. "I...I can't tell stories."

Ye Jinmeng seemed a bit disappointed, but then she suggested, "Then, Brother Junwen, could you watch a movie with me?"

Ye Junwen nodded subconsciously.

Ye Jinmeng sat up against the headboard, lifting the corner of the blanket and making room beside her. She patted the empty spot, "Brother Junwen, come up."

Ye Junwen stared at Ye Jinmeng, truly surprised by this abnormal intimacy. After hesitating briefly, he climbed under the covers.

"Brother Junwen, can you look up 'We Fall in Love' on your phone? I want to watch it."

Ye Junwen mechanically took out his phone, searched for the movie on a video app, and started playing it. He used one hand as a phone stand as they both leaned against the headboard to watch.

It was a romantic film, showcasing the sweet journey of the main characters from strangers to lovers.

Ye Jinmeng wasn't really interested in the movie. Instead, Ye Junwen was aware of the light, pleasant scent of her body wash. His breathing became quicker.

His right hand, seemingly of its own accord, started moving towards Ye Jinmeng.

Just as he was about to touch her, Ye Jinmeng abruptly grabbed Ye Junwen's hand.

"Brother Junwen, do you like me?" Her voice was alluring.

Ye Junwen's heart pounded loudly. The girl he had loved for many years was in front of him, her rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes making it impossible for him to suppress his desire. He dropped his phone, ready to lean in to kiss her.

But Ye Jinmeng blocked him with her hand.

"Brother Junwen, could you... could you go take a shower? I don't like the smell of your body wash. Could you use mine? I love the lemon scent."

Blushing, Ye Jinmeng added, "After all, it's my first time, and I want it to be a good experience..."

Ye Junwen's eyes widened, he didn't expect happiness would come so suddenly.

Feeling the softness of the girl's palm against his lips, his voice overflowed from the corner of his mouth, "Alright, I'll go take a shower, you…"

"I'll watch the movie, waiting for you~"

Ye Junwen, bewitched, had long forgotten about not allowing Ye Jinmeng to touch the phone alone. He walked into the bathroom in a daze.

As soon as the sound of the shower started, Ye Jinmeng immediately turned up the volume of the movie on her phone, covering up all her movements.

First, she opened her text messages, typed in the numbers of Shi Shuning, Ye Junli, and Xu Wanwan, sent them her current location, and then sent a few more words.

"Secret message, don't reply. I'm running south. Meng!"

The reason for sending the message to the three of them was just a hope that at least one of them would see it in time and someone would come to rescue her.

After successfully sending the messages, she deleted the message records. She put down the phone, quickly got out of bed, and thought for a moment. She took off the necklace from her neck and put it together with the phone.

She pulled out the shoes she had hidden under the bed and put them on, quickly put on a down jacket over her pajamas, walked to the window, stood on a chair to open the window, threw the clothes rope down, climbed over the small guardrail, took a deep breath looking at the ground, and without hesitation, descended down the rope.

Once she reached the ground, only one word was in her mind, run!

Ye Jinmeng didn't know whether running south would bring her into danger, but she knew that if she didn't run for her life, she'd definitely be caught and have her legs broken.
