Chapter 193 -193: Appearing in the Form of Prey
Doctor Zhen took the bag and gave her the OK sign: “No problem, Doctor Anxin! Speaking of which, my heart has been feeling uncomfortable lately, and sometimes I can barely breathe. Can you take a look at it for me?”
Ye Chuyi specialized in oncology, and Doctor Zhen’s symptoms were clearly more suitable for cardiology, but Ye Chuyi still replied with a smile: “No problem. Remember to get an X-ray first, and I’ll help you check it after that.”
Doctor Zhen was very happy and hurriedly said: “Thank you, Doctor Anxin!”
“You’re welcome, it’s what I should do.”
She had asked others for a favor, so naturally, she should help them in return. They trusted her, which was why they wanted her to look after them.
At noon, Doctor Zhen came to Ye Chuyi with her own X-rays: “Doctor Anxin, the results of the test you gave me are out!”
“What’s in it?”
“The main components are magnesium sulfate and sodium sulfate.”
Ye Chuyi understood immediately, these were the principal components of laxatives.
It seemed she hadn’t wronged Meng Li; she really had reused her old trick and drugged her again.
Last night, she hadn’t drunk the tea with goji berries and red dates, but she deliberately spilled a little, then used a tissue to absorb the spill and tucked it into her pocket, bringing it to the hospital today for testing.
Meng Li didn’t put drugs in the food because she knew Sheng Tingyuan would eat it.
She drugged the tea with goji berries and red dates because she also knew Sheng Tingyuan wouldn’t drink it. Meng Li even understood Sheng Tingyuan’s preferences better than she did as his wife, knowing that he loved to drink Longjing Tea.
With such thorough homework done, was it just to humiliate her in front of Sheng Tingyuan by drugging her?
Next, she checked Doctor Zhen’s X-rays and confirmed confidently that she was fine, her heart was healthy. The recent discomfort was likely due to her excessive drinking of black coffee. Quitting coffee would solve the problem.
After Doctor Zhen left, the easy smile on Ye Chuyi’s face vanished.
She hadn’t yet exacted revenge for being drugged during the college entrance exams, and now Meng Li had come to harm her again. Perfect, she would settle the new grievances along with the old ones!
She picked up her phone and made a call: “Ivy, it’s late, no time for sleep, get to work.”
…
In the evening, Ivy called Ye Chuyi back: “Boss, I’ve found out. Meng Li sat in a café opposite the Shengshi Group building all day today. Now, President Sheng has left work, and Meng Li has stopped him.”
“Oh? She stopped Sheng Tingyuan? What did she have to say?”
“She’s been crying nonstop, like willows weighed down with rain, continuously apologizing. And now, she’s kneeling down before President Sheng begging him to let her go.”
“And then?”
“President Sheng seems very impatient and had his bodyguards pull her away. He’s gotten into his car.”
Ye Chuyi was puzzled, as Sheng Tingyuan previously seemed to have been very tolerant of Meng Li. It had taken three collisions before he lost his temper, so why was he impatient now? Meng Li’s kneeling and begging didn’t seem to matter.
Shortly after, Ivy updated her in real-time: “Boss, President Sheng has left.”
Ye Chuyi perked up, stood up, and cleared her throat: “Good, now it’s my turn to enter the stage. Make sure you keep her there, I want to avenge myself!”
“No problem, boss.”
Ye Chuyi hung up the phone, picked up her bag, and was about to leave when her phone rang again.
She looked down to see, and it was Meng Li calling.
Ye Chuyi suddenly smiled. She wanted to settle things with Meng Li, and Meng Li wasn’t planning to let her off either. Having just failed to stop Sheng Tingyuan, she immediately turned her attention to her.

She answered the call. “What’s up?”
“Chuyi, do you have time? I’d like to invite you for a cup of coffee, and also, I want to apologize to you. I’ve owed you an apology for years, please don’t reject me this time, okay?”
“Where are you?”
“I’m in a café.”
Meng Li then gave the address: “You have to come, okay? I’ll wait for you. It’s a date.”
Ye Chuyi silently laughed.
When the hunter was baiting their prey, how could they know that the prey had been lying in wait for a long time already?
A high-end hunter often appears in the guise of the prey.
She hung up and went out the door.
Soon, she drove to the café opposite the Shengshi Group building, and there she was, sitting by a window—her target for revenge, Meng Li.
