Chapter 211 The unspeakable secret
Chapter 211 The unspeakable secret
"If you don't leave, I'm going to call security." Manman didn't think about it. There was no need to waste too much time on such things. Maybe it was just that she hadn't seen Chinese people for a long time, so she felt more friendly.
"If you continue to remain silent and don't tell us what's going on, there's nothing we can do." Jiang Mubai was certain that the girl didn't know his identity, and he estimated that he was not yet famous enough to be famous abroad.
Cheng Yunchuan had also come over at this time. He was just about to come over to tell Jiang Mubai that the whereabouts of the phone had been found, but when he looked at the person at the door and then at the phone in her hand, suddenly an idea came to him.
"You are the girl who stole the phone, I knew it!" Cheng Yunchuan's action scared the girl, and she subconsciously ran behind Jiang Mubai.
"Wait a minute! You need to figure it out first. She was the one who sent the phone to me!" Cheng Yunchuan then stopped and was about to call the police. He almost caught the wrong person.
"Why did you suddenly send the phone over here? Didn't your contact tell you to hand over everything to him?" The girl's face changed when Cheng Yunchuan mentioned this person. She seemed to be very afraid of this person.
Jiang Mubai led everyone into the room. With so many people standing at the door, they would attract attention sooner or later. If there was anything to say, they could talk behind closed doors.
The girl looked around at the people in front of her. Perhaps because she had met so many people over the years, they didn't look like bad people and might be able to help her escape from this abyss.
"My name is Wu You, and I was sold here by my family." This short sentence shocked the three people in front of him several times. The amount of information contained in it was really too much.
Jiang Mubai grabbed her arm, and she subconsciously pulled it back, then pulled it over and turned up her sleeve to see that it was covered with scars, some new and some old, but each one looked extremely shocking.
"Who beat her?" Jiang Mubai couldn't ignore the existence of these injuries. What kind of evil thing did he do to beat a girl like this?
"I'm the liaison. If there's no goods, I'll beat you up." The expression on her face looked calm as she spoke, as if she was used to such a person.
Jiang Mubai felt very distressed. Whether it was true or not, she was determined to take care of it. It was lucky for the girl to meet him. If it was someone else, she would probably still be living in darkness there.
After his doubts were dispelled, Cheng Yunchuan was still reluctant to leave. He always felt that this girl had something she hadn't said, and it was really strange that she appeared here so easily.
"Okay, okay, just go back first. We can talk about it later if you have something to say. Don't disturb us when we are talking in private." Jiang Mubai pushed Cheng Yunchuan out and winked at Manman. She understood what he meant immediately.
"Trust Sister Mu Bai. She has the freedom to make her own judgment on this matter." With Manman's support, Cheng Yunchuan had to leave. Director Zhou also came to ask them to go to the filming location together, but he turned it down. He had to stay in the hotel today.
Now there were only two of them left in the room. Wu You looked a little more relaxed, but she still kept her head down and observed quietly, not daring to make any big movements. Jiang Mubai discovered that this had almost been engraved into her habits.
"Are you an adult?" Jiang Mubai made a cup of milk tea and handed it to her. Originally, this was for him to satisfy his craving, after all, it was too difficult to drink this in this place.
Wu You's eyes lit up instantly. Being able to taste this familiar flavor again after so many years was like meeting an old friend in a foreign country.
"Just reached adulthood." She really was still very young, having been sold here before she reached adulthood. Jiang Mubai couldn't imagine how helpless she must have been at that time.
She didn't drink the milk tea directly, but took a cup from the side and shared half with Jiang Mubai. She watched her pick it up before putting it to her mouth.
This small action also moved Jiang Mubai. She had just become an adult, but what she had experienced was beyond what many people could bear.
"Can you tell me your story?" Jiang Mubai patted the seat next to him. Seeing that she was so thin that she was almost skin and bones, he put a cushion under her, hoping that she would be more comfortable.
Wu You did not resist too much. On the contrary, maybe it was because of the milk tea that made her relax a little. After all, she was just a young girl who had just become an adult, so naturally she had no resistance to such things.
As he drank the milk tea sip by sip, Wu You told her story. Her narrative ability was very strong and the whole story seemed to be specially made up. If Jiang Mubai hadn't been talking to her in real life, he really wouldn't have believed it was true.
"Has anyone ever praised you for being a good storyteller in the past?" Apart from these times, she should also have memories of her childhood.
"No, but I have won many awards." This is not surprising. To be able to win an award means that one must be very capable. Jiang Mubai's initial worries instantly disappeared.
Her life story is simply a collection of the tragedies of today's heroines. Jiang Mubai has seen one or two such cases, but this is the first time he has seen such a thing. It is hard to believe even in a story.
"Don't you believe me either?" Wu You's eyes were calm, as if he was used to this kind of reaction of his.
Jiang Mubai suddenly came to his senses and handed her some snacks to try to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that it happened so suddenly. It's been about two hours since you showed up at the door of my room. I need some time to digest it."
Jiang Mubai felt that she had seen all kinds of storms and had come through them all, and this girl's experience also broadened her horizons.
Wu You gave him an understanding look. This was normal. When she told others about this in the past, their looks were even stranger than Jiang Mubai's. Some people even drove her away directly.
Because of the language barrier, she could only rely on her poor English to find a job. Finally, she found this secret place with great difficulty, but she was discovered in the end. She really had nowhere to escape.
"I understand. Thank you for listening to me for so long. Now that the property has been returned to its original owner, I will leave." Wu You pretended to get up and leave. She left decisively without any hesitation.
When Jiang Mubai caught up with her from behind, she had already turned into the elevator, and her defenses were gradually crumbling.
When Jiang Mubai finally made up his mind, he rushed out immediately, but there was no sign of Wu You in the empty elevator. Only Cheng Yunchuan, who heard the noise, immediately ran out of the room.
"What's wrong? What happened? Are you okay?" Cheng Yunchuan subconsciously checked on Jiang Mubai's condition, but she was still regretting not stopping Wu You.
If she could be faster, she wouldn't have to go back to that devastating place, dreaming unfulfilled dreams every day and waiting for the next person to come.
