Chapter Five Hundred and Nine: The Woman With Explosive Self-control
Ning Hai, Alice did not answer Meng Huo's question. After she said "enough", she got up and walked towards the guest's room.
Meng Huo looked at her back with his eyes flashing. He still couldn't see Alice's psychology, but could her actions be said to be an escape?
"No, too decisive..."
Alice did not show much on her face. If she decided that her point of view was correct, Meng Huo would be really thinking about it.
In fact, he already felt that he was thinking randomly... Maybe Alice really didn't want to talk about this issue, and she was angry when she heard it and chose to leave.
But because of this, Meng Huo didn't want to continue thinking about it. No matter how angry Alice was, he wanted to ask for an answer now, otherwise he would remember this matter for the rest of his life and would never get an answer for the rest of his life. Alice was very cunning and could have been unexpected this time, but when she was prepared, Meng Huo would have no chance to find anything.
So he didn't think about it for long, and followed Alice's footsteps and reached out to stop her before she entered the door.
Alice's face changed: "Menghuo, don't be unreasonable."
Meng Huo shook his head. He was very unreasonable, but if he didn't do so, Alice would not tell him anything.
"I want to hear your answer. If I am thinking a lot, then you answer me, stare into my eyes, and answer me formally..."
His eyes were staring at Alice. Alice had never seen such sharp eyes as he had, but she gritted her teeth and snorted coldly: "Okay, then I'll tell you, what Duke Anthony said is right. Don't have any fantasies!"
Alice directed her eyes towards Meng Huo, with a little angry but full of determination. It was a very sincere and unquestionable look. She used this look to tell Meng Huo. His questions today were nonsense.
Meng Huo was shaken.
“…”
He put down his hand and Alice walked past him.
Just as the two were about to pass each other, Alice's hand was pulled.
"Your expression has changed."
She turned her head and saw Meng Huo staring at her.
"Your expression has finally changed, Alice..." he said, "Why do you show a face that you want to cry?"
Alice was startled and reached out to touch her face: "Impossible!"
She obviously restrained her own psychology, how could she show it? But before her hand touched her face, Alice's movements stopped, and she could react even if she didn't wipe it. After struggling in the entertainment industry for so many years, Alice could have been able to hide herself perfectly... She could not make a mistake.
"You lied to me!"
She glared at Meng Huo.
"Yes, you are so awesome. If I don't lie to you, I can't tell what you are thinking..."
Meng Huo let go of his hand, and a blue torrent flashed through his eyes, which was the light of spiritual energy. Meng Huo took a gamble just now, and he lied to Alice, causing her to show her panic in less than a second. Although this panic flashed away, it was enough for him who had spiritual energy to record it.
In that second, Meng Huo could be slowed down thousands of times, allowing him to slowly examine what looks appeared on Alice's face.
"I know the answer." Meng came to the conclusion: "You can't hide it from my eyes. Alice, I never told you... My eyes are different from others, and my observation ability is several times that of others. Even if you can hide it from everyone, you can't hide it from me."
Alice stared at Meng Huo with a surprised look on her face.
"You are lying."
"No." Meng Huo closed his eyes and said, "The number of patterns on the cuffs of your clothes is 23 now. The third button on the dress you wore yesterday is a bit loose. There was a stripe on the side of the coat table the day before yesterday. The color of the stripe was lighter than other stripes, the day before... "
Alice lifted her cuffs and counted them. She didn't know about it. But she did have 23 patterns. Moreover, there were some details that Meng Huo said before. Although she didn't know about it, it seemed that there was such a thing when she remembered it... More importantly, Meng Huo said the order of all the clothes she wore after returning to Manga Island, which was something she hadn't remembered clearly.
"What he said is true, he can never forget it!"
An absurd conclusion flashed through Alice's mind, but she didn't find it strange at all when the conclusion came out - instead, years of doubts disappeared.
No wonder he can be top-notch in every industry. It turns out that Meng Huo is a genius monster. This is a thing worth being happy about, but Alice is not happy. She believed Meng Huo's words, and everything in the past was remembered by him. It would be no surprise that he found out that abnormality...
"..." Alice reached out to touch her, this time she touched her...that was tears.
It was not until this moment that her disguise disappeared - and Meng Huo also knew the answer, and he actually didn't say a word in the last sentence, but now, he knew the answer.
That night a few years ago, nothing happened to him and Alice.
"Why do you lie to us?"
Meng Huo asked, his nails were pinching into his palms, which hurt very much, but it was difficult for him to calm down if it didn't hurt.
"Who knows? I didn't think about lying to you in detail." Alice wiped her tears, her tone was normal, but she still couldn't understand it. Others cried heartbrokenly, but her face was as cold as usual, and she just rolled tears in her eyes.
"I'm actually very despicable..."
Alice stood beside Meng Huo, standing in two directions with him, telling the story of that year. The things that happened back then were actually the same as what Duke Anthony discovered, but there was one difference, that is, Alice did not take the last step. She did everything she could, but in the end she didn't have the courage to take the last step...
"Menghuo, do you still remember what happened in that amusement park? I was on a blind date and saw you and Shen Jie together. The time we bumped into each other... Later, after using medicine, I kept recalling what happened in that amusement park. You are Shen Jie's most important thing, and I dare not take it away..."
On that night, Alice struggled and wandered, but she didn't take the last step: "I told you back then that I wanted a child... This is not a lie. In fact, I initially gave you medicine with this purpose, because if I had a child, the family wouldn't let me go on a blind date again..."
Alice said that she didn't like men. Her experiences from childhood and experiences in the entertainment industry made her unable to truly like a man. Before that incident, Alice was busy going on blind dates every week. Perhaps that chance encounter in the amusement park was the fuse, and she could not stand that kind of life.
She wanted to find an excuse to convince her parents and let them agree with her values. But how to find an excuse? She finally found Meng Huo - as long as she had a child with him, Xu Jing and the others would turn a blind eye.
"But in the end, I found that it was just an excuse."
"Because you are not thinking about children at all...but freedom..."
Meng Huo took it and he had already got the answer, which was the reason why he suspected that Alice was lying.
In fact, that night, Alice could achieve her goal without children. Just like the current situation, when her parents knew that she had done something wrong to resist other men, Xu Jing and his wife immediately compromised - so, as long as Alice had the illusion of her sleeping with Meng Huo and said that she was not pregnant, that was actually enough.
She didn't want to hurt others at first, so she designed all this quietly, including Chen Jie's text messages. If Anthony hadn't spoken out, this would have become her secret. Xu Jing and his wife would have thought that their daughter had made a big mistake and would not dare to force her afterwards, while Meng Hu and the others would never know about it.
It was originally a happy ending for everyone, but unfortunately it changed. When Meng Huo went to find Alice, she didn't know that this matter would make him leave, so she just made the mistake, which attracted a series of subsequent responses.
"This is my fault... But, now, what's the point of saying this?" Alice wiped away her tears and said, "Menghuo, what can you change if you get this answer?"
Meng Huo clenched his fists: "I'm sorry..."
He apologized, originally just a guess, but when it came true, Meng Huo's head was messy. No matter how calm his face was, he could not calm his heart... Regret, guilt, shame... Too many things filled his heart, and he didn't know what to do, so he could only apologize.
Only by apologizing, he must do it.
"You don't need to apologize." But Alice shook her head: "I said, I'm not as kind as you think."
"That night, I was really going to have sex with you... No, in a sense, I've done it..."
Alice looked at Meng Huo and said sadly: "I always feel that I lacked Chen Jie because I did everything I could. The reason why I didn't do it to the end was just a trace of conscience and fear... I was worried that one day Chen Jie would know, if she knew, what would she do?"
"So I left the bottom line, Meng Huo... don't you find it strange? Why didn't Chen Jie notice this for so many years after you left?" Chen Jie was a very sensitive person, especially Meng Huo. Although she didn't doubt that night, after Meng Huo went out for a trip, she couldn't have doubted that matter - even if no one said that, she would go to Alice.
She looked for it, but proved that Alice was innocent, so she had never doubted it yet.
Meng Huo nodded: "I know, so... you and I are innocent..."
"No, you don't understand... Some things are either black or white." Alice walked into the guest room and sighed: "Instead of believing that I am kind, you should believe that I am a woman with strong self-control... As long as you are careful, you won't destroy the door if you don't get too rushing into the door..."
Meng Huo was stunned and he quickly turned around.
"Bang."
