Chapter 2009: Chapter 2013: A Black Blot
After tidying up her clothes, washing her hands, and then washing her face, Luo Xiaoqian looked at herself in the mirror, took a breath, and opened the door.
"What’s wrong, are you not feeling well?" Luo Ke felt a bit relieved seeing her come out safely.
"Maybe... the meals these past few days haven’t been very good." Luo Xiaoqian casually covered up.
Luo Ke held her arm and helped her sit by the sofa, "I brought some milk and snacks, would you like some?"
"Just a glass of milk will be fine." Luo Xiaoqian took the cup he handed over, thinking about the note, she drank the milk in big gulps, immediately placed the cup on the table, and gave him a smile, "I feel much better now. I’m going upstairs to lie down for a while."
"I’ll take you up." Luo Ke extended his arm to help her up from the sofa. Luo Xiaoqian feared that refusing might arouse his suspicion, so she let him assist her upstairs.
He guided her into the bedroom on the third floor, helped her lie down on the pillow, and carefully tucked the thin blanket around her.
"I have some matters to deal with, I’ll check on you a bit later."
"It’s okay, you go ahead and work, maybe I just didn’t sleep well last night."
Deep down, hoping he leaves quickly, Luo Xiaoqian behaved very gently, making him mistakenly think she trusted the fake documents and photos even more. Feeling more joyful, Luo Ke indulgently helped tidy her hair.
"Once you’ve rested, I’ll accompany you for a walk by the seaside."
"Okay." Luo Xiaoqian agreed with a smile, "See you later."
"See you later." Luo Ke got up, walked towards the door, and before stepping out, he didn’t forget to wave with a smile.
Returning a smile, Luo Xiaoqian slowly closed her eyes, but her ears were perked up, listening intently, hearing him close the door, walk away, and out of the living room. She immediately flipped the blanket aside, barefoot and tip-toeing, she sneaked over to confirm he had left, immediately locked the door, and took the note from her pocket.
There were two notes, one written on hotel stationery, the other on tissue paper.
The tissue had obvious water stains.
Because the paper absorbed water easily, a small amount of moisture had soaked a large area, not daring to exert force, Luo Xiaoqian carefully unfolded the tissue bit by bit.
The tissues used in the villa were made of water-soluble fibers (foreign toilet paper is generally made with water-soluble fibers, which can be directly disposed of in the toilet without worrying about blockage), the water had already penetrated the paper’s fibers, the middle part had adhered completely, despite her caution, the center was still beyond restoration, only the writing at the top and bottom was visible.
"Sissi, this is a note you wrote yourself, you might not remember since you were hypnotized. If you don’t believe it, you can try rewriting according to these words, and you will see it’s your handwriting. Don’t trust that bastard Luo Ke, he’s an evil demon, don’t be misled by his sweet talk, the man you truly love is only one."
Here the top part ends, followed by the bottom part.
"As soon as you see him, you’ll know he’s the one. He has black hair and eyes, plays the piano beautifully, and looks at you with such affection like you are his princess. Find a way to seek him out, for he is someone you absolutely can’t miss in life, you must go."
The part regarding Leng Zimo’s name and the child was completely smudged by water into a black blur, Luo Xiaoqian looked at the somewhat disjointed words of these two segments, unable to imagine what she had written at the time.
