Chapter 68: I Cannot Bear to See You Leave

After she got into the house, she took a shower and changed her clothes before she could finally take a seat on the sofa. Her bestie went to retrieve two ice packs from the fridge to apply on her bruises.

“Your grandma is a formidable demoness! Most women at her age are either sick or amiable old ladies. But she is still going strong at her age, and she’s merciless when it comes to hitting her granddaughter.” By now, Li Meng was really disgusted with the old lady.

“Well, she was already heartless when she hit her own son, not to mention me.”

“How can there be such a grandma in the world…?” Her bestie’s voice trailed off, having no words to describe her feelings.

“What should I tell Bao Junyan to convince him to let me stay away for two days?” She was more concerned about this matter right now.

“If you were aware of this problem prior to this, then why didn’t you try to avoid the situation in the first place? Who could have hit you if you meant to run?!”

“How could I have avoided it? If I didn’t let that old woman vent her frustration, she might take it out on my granny,” she retorted with a pout.

Her friend was about to say something when she realized the truth in her words. What if that demoness really went after the granny?

A man truly cannot have any kind of weakness. If her friend did not, with her capabilities, she would not have had to bear with such humiliation!

“I have to say, though, my grandma has always been careful. When I was little, she would not allow my stepmother to hit my face in case others found out about the abuse. But she really lost her cool today. The fact that Mu Kexin cannot marry Bao Junyan must be a terrible blow to her!” This thought cheered her up very much.

“It would be good if this blow was heavy enough to knock her out so she can’t cause any more trouble to you,” her friend said.

“Well, she may want Kexin to marry Bao Junyan for the sake of her precious grandson, but the person she loves most is herself, after all. She won’t be easily defeated. If not, the title of the thousand-years’ demoness will not be befitting for her!”

Her bestie had to agree. “She’s a true-blue demoness!”

“Ay, let’s not talk about this now. Come and brainstorm with me. What should I say to convince the man to let me stay over at your place for two days…?” This was getting to be a major headache!

“How about telling him that I tried to slit my wrist because of family problems?” Li Meng reckoned a tough, sad story would probably be able to earn a few days’ absence without incurring any suspicion.

“What if he decides to come and see you?” She had told her husband that Li Meng was her very best friend. And for her best friend, he would likely pay a visit as a courtesy if he were to find out that she had attempted suicide. That would spell trouble!

This plan was too risky!

Her friend had to agree with her after thinking it through. “But I doubt he’s gonna believe you if you tell him that your best friend is brokenhearted. I mean, we were having such a good time with the seafood hotpot…”

“How about other friends falling out of love?”

“I think this excuse can work only once. You’re gonna arouse his suspicion if you use the same excuse again!”

“I think so too.” That was the reason she hesitated on this matter.

Just as the two of them were mulling over the best excuse to use, Bao Junyan called.

The girl immediately signaled her friend to keep quiet.

“I need to make an urgent trip to the UK. I’ll return about three days later.”

The girl brightened up instantly at his message. Heaven was on her side!

“Hubby, please go ahead and get busy!”

The man asked, “Are you that happy to hear that I’m going away?”

Hearing her exuberance, it sounded to him like she was going to send him off with firecrackers and cheerleading.

“That’s not true…” She hastily muted her tone. “Hubby, I can’t bear to see you go!”

“That’s good to know. Come back and pack your stuff. You’re leaving with me,” he told her.

“What?!”
