Chapter 896
Snakel’s attention was caught by that noise.
Without another word, he kicked open the cubicle door.
Snakel frowned deeply when he saw the crying Gu Mengmeng. His heart filled with ache.
He drew Gu Mengmeng into his arms and rubbed her back, paying no heed to her struggling. “You are not allowed to cry. It looks too ugly.”
“Leave me alone… sob sob sob… let go of me… if someone sees us, I will be in even deeper shit… let go, let go of me…”
The more Gu Mengmeng struggled, the tighter Snakel held her. Until she was finally exhausted and laid docilely on his shoulder, still convulsing in sobs. Only then did Snakel ask, “Tell me, why are you crying?”
Gu Mengmeng refused to answer, and just continued crying.
Snakel didn’t want to force her. He lifted her up in his arms and carried her to the underground car park. He then put her inside his car and drove her back to the villa.
Gu Mengmeng finally recomposed herself when they arrived at the villa.
Her voice was still nasal but at least the tears had stopped flowing.
“Why have we come back? I have only attended one class…”
Snakel glanced down at her. “I am the boss, and will dictate the schedule as and how I please. It is your duty to just obey and not question.”
Without further explanation, Snakel pushed Gu Mengmeng into her room. “Take a shower and change your clothes. I don’t like you looking so disheveled and miserable.”
With that, he shut the door and returned to his own room.
Only attended one class? So what? How could he let others see her crying like that?
Her tears could only flow in front of him.
Snakel dialed a number on his mobile phone. “Three minutes. Investigate what happened to her today.”
With that, Snakel hung up without even waiting for a reply.
Sitting behind his desk, Snakel crossed his arms on the tabletop. His gaze was harsh and he radiated a fierce and ruthless aura. It was as if the atmosphere was enveloped in a thick black haze, making one feel choked with fear.
A minute and a half later, Snakel’s mobile screen lighted up.
Apart from the post on the school online forum, there were also the names of the girls who had been gossiping in the toilet, as well as the content of their conversation.
And of course, the names of the people who had originated that forum post and those photos were also included.
Snakel’s finger brushed lightly across that last name on his screen. He gave a slight sneer, as if he was a god of death announcing the coming of the darkness.
Gu Mengmeng changed into a clean outfit after her shower. Snakel had thrown away her own clothes—so unless she wished to wander about naked, she had no choice but to put on the clothes Snakel had bought for her yesterday. One good thing was that the outfits all came in ready sets, and Gu Mengmeng didn’t have to bother about how to mix and match the different pieces.
When she came out of her room, Snakel was already standing by the door. He smiled as he looked at the pink dress she had on. Mmm, it matched his current outfit perfectly.
Her simple ponytail exuded a youthful lack of inhibition. It was far from the exquisite and fussy hairstyles worn by other girls, but made one feel natural and comfortable.
Snakel was extremely pleased with Gu Mengmeng’s appearance. He pulled her by the hand to the sports car and headed back to school.
Gu Mengmeng had no idea what Snakel intended to do. But he was the boss and he dictated the schedule, right? So Gu Mengmeng just sat there quietly. Wherever he led, she would just follow.
