Tan Bengbeng did not let her guard down even though she knew that the two of them were the only ones in the apartment.
After a simple shower, she quickly changed into her clothes and stepped out of the bathroom.
As she was walking back to the room, the first thing she saw was a bowl of steaming hot ginger soup on the table.
There was a paper slip below the bowl.
The flamboyant and cursive handwriting produced two words that were as arrogant as its owner: “Drink it.”
Tan Bengbeng knitted her eyebrows immediately when she saw the commanding tone.
She stared at the bowl of ginger soup in her hands but did not drink it.
She was still unable to trust someone so greatly to the extent that she dared to drink anything that he passed to her.
Furthermore, the man who had sent her this bowl of ginger soup had unleashed the beast in him yesterday night and…
Tan Bengbeng thought of something and turned around to look at the bed in the room.
It was still the same set of bedsheets as yesterday, and the red bloodstains on the surface had already dried to a dark maroon color.
There were still traces of the man’s craziness lingering on the bedsheets; they were mottled, and glaring to the eye…
Everything that happened last night swarmed uncontrollably into her mind just by staring at the bed in front of her.
Tan Bengbeng did not pack the bed but instead turned around to find items in the room that could be used to contact Nian Xiaomu.
Laptop, cell phone…
There was nothing.
Not even a television set could be found in the room.
At first glance, the place seemed so white, just like a ward in a hospital.
However, the longer one stayed here, the quicker they would realize that this place was as hopeless as hell.
She seemed to have returned to the ancient times when not a single form of modern communication device could be found!
She bit her lip and willed herself to calm down.
She had taken a spin outside earlier on and realized that this island was not very big; it was surrounded by sea but not a single boat could be seen.
In addition, this house was the only building on the entire island. Even though the decor in the house looked seemingly simplistic, it actually had an extremely complete and advanced set of household amenities…
She was guessing that this was a private island.
The house might have communicative tools with the outside world, just that this particular room did not have them.
What about the living room?
Or perhaps the man’s room…
Tan Bengbeng immediately placed the ginger soup back on the table and walked toward the door.
Just as she pulled open the door, in the wheelchair, the man’s indifferent face shocked her so much that she retreated a few steps!
When she snapped back to her senses, her eyes grew wide as she stared at the man, who had appeared outside her room despite the sky getting dark.
She revealed a vigilant ray of light in her eyes.
She only let him do whatever he wanted with her yesterday because she could not move.
However, if he was planning to play the same old trick again today, she would surely break his genitals and make him a true blue disabled person!
“Drink it and you will be able to speak tomorrow.”
The man did not seem to be bothered by the look of enmity in her eyes as he passed a small bottle of medicine to her.
When he saw that Tan Bengbeng did not take it, he paced the bottle of medicine at the small shelf beside the door. Then, he pushed his wheelchair away and left.
“…”
He was merely here to deliver medicine to her?
As Tan Bengbeng stared at the tiny medicine bottle on the shelf, she picked it up and took a look.
There were no medication specifications on the dark brown glass bottle.
Even the drug name was missing.
She opened the bottle cap and took a sniff. She was able to detect the few of the ingredients in the bottled medicine; they were good antibiotics for the throat with the function of decreasing inflammation.
She hesitated for a moment. Then, she realized that it was indeed very inconvenient for her to be unable to speak.
She gritted her teeth and drank the bottle of medicine in her hands.
After the cooling medicine bypassed her throat, it only took her a few minutes before the stinging feeling in her throat disappeared.
Then, she let out two coughs and the dryness in her throat was gone too.
