Chapter 149 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess

Unconsciously, the wind suddenly became strong. The girl couldn't help but hold on to the person driving the motorcycle. The wind grew stronger and then gradually calmed. The girl kept holding on until the piercing siren sound disappeared, and she slowly opened her eyes. It was only then that she realized, the surrounding wind had also gradually subsided. Before her, she had arrived at the edge of the industrial area of New York City. This was a man-made river that ran through the entire city, which had been dug open decades ago due to industrial water usage. As a result, it was surrounded by various industrial facilities. It was only a hundred years ago, when the new industrial revolution arrived, that the river was re-planned. All the surrounding factories were dismantled, and it was cleansed. Now, it existed without a name, only as a part of the city's landscaping. "Nan Yin." Li Meng looked at Nan Yin, who had just gotten off the motorcycle. The girl who had suddenly appeared in New York leisurely lit a cigarette in front of her, took a deep drag, and exhaled a large smoke ring. After Li Meng spoke, the snow-white-haired girl slightly paused and turned to look at the girl who had just escaped death with her. Then, she smiled faintly, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly crying?" Crying? She was crying? Li Meng was slightly stunned by these words. She gently lowered her head only to discover that she was in tears without knowing when they had started flowing. She didn't even know the reason. Thinking this, Li Meng quickly turned her head, "I...I didn't cry." Nan Yin chuckled, "But you're all teary-eyed like a little kitten. You..." At this moment, upon hearing the residual mission prompt in her mind, the thought of soon having new blood made Nan Yin ecstatic. She subconsciously wanted to tease a little more, but before she could say anything else, the golden-haired girl suddenly threw herself into her arms, tightly hugging her. "Ming...sob...sob..." The girl cried like this. Just a moment ago, she was still denying and playfully avoiding, not crying. But the next moment, she leapt into her beloved's embrace and wept openly. Perhaps it was because her beloved was in front of her, or perhaps it was paying the price for her earlier coquetry. In any case, faced with the girl's loud cries, Nan Yin only had one choice: after a slight pause, she reached out to pat the girl's back, seeking to console her. "Why are you suddenly crying?" "I...I...Ming...I've caused Ming..." Nan Yin probably knew what the girl was afraid of. She lightly smiled, "Afraid of what? Didn't we escape?" "But...but..." Li Meng wanted to say she was afraid of indiscriminate bullets, and also that she was happy to see Nan Yin. But on second thought, any reason seemed a bit embarrassing. Add to that the joy of surviving a life-threatening situation, and for a moment, Li Meng didn't want to speak, and her cries gradually subsided. Finally, she just lay in Nan Yin's embrace, savoring that familiar scent, intoxicated for a while. Nan Yin also didn't know what Li Meng's current situation was. Afraid of continuing to upset her, she could only continue holding her. And so, the two stunning girls embraced by the roadside, with the picturesque man-made river beside them, formed a beautiful scene. After some time had passed, Nan Yin finally brought Li Meng to a chair by the man-made river. The airborne motorcycle had just parked nearby, and Li Meng had leaned against Nan Yin without realizing it. Nan Yin didn't sense anything wrong about it. She didn't stop it, and the two started to converse. "Why did you suddenly think of running away from home?" Nan Yin was very curious about Li Meng's reasons for running away from home this time. Under her intervention, Li Meng actually had no reason to run away from home as per the original story. In the original story, there was a scene of Miss Li Meng from the Dragon Qian Group running away from home. However, at that time, it was because of Li Meng's disabled legs. Back then, Su Xiao Yu, due to Li Meng's disabled legs, avoided expressing his love for her. In addition, Li Meng's father, Li Yitian, was seriously ill at that time. Li Meng suffered a double blow psychologically, leading her to the idea of running away from home. In her timeline, Nan Yin saved Li Meng, so Li Meng didn't have a disability. Furthermore, Li Yitian inexplicably didn't get sick. Nan Yin had inquired about this matter in advance. Then in this situation, why did Li Meng still want to run away from home? "I...I..." Li Meng was completely at a loss about how to explain to Nan Yin. Did she want to confess that she ran away from home because of her father's arranged marriage? But in that case, there was a high probability that Nan Yin would ask: "Su Xiao Yu is very nice, why don't you like him?". How would she answer Nan Yin then? Did she really want to say she liked Nan Yin herself? As Li Meng hesitated, Nan Yin thought she had some unspeakable secret. She decided to change the topic, but when Li Meng saw Nan Yin's expression, her mind suddenly went blank, and she blurted out, "Because I like you!" Silence. Dead silence. Li Meng didn't hear an immediate response from Nan Yin, neither a rejection nor agreement. Her heart sank immediately, and her face turned pale. After a short while, Li Meng heard Nan Yin's puzzled question, "What did you just say?" Li Meng realized that she had spoken too softly due to nervousness and shyness, and Nan Yin hadn't heard her confession! Li Meng was thoroughly embarrassed. Her face turned red, and she could only say softly, "Because my father wants to arrange a marriage for me..." An arranged marriage? Nan Yin was a bit slow to react at first, but then she remembered the plot where Li Yitian was arranging marriages without permission. She smiled slightly, "Is our Miss Li Meng going to fall in love? I wonder who the young master is?" "Uh..." "Li Meng?" Nan Yin's question went unanswered for a while. When she looked down, she realized that Li Meng had lowered her head. "You..." "Mmm!"
