Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Bitten by a Mad Dog

Before she could even begin to process the pain, her chin was clutched by a large hand, the long knuckles sinking deep into her tender skin, painfully digging into her jawbone, almost bringing tears to her eyes.

Meng Tian was lifted by her chin like one would pick up a small cat or dog.

As she raised her leg to kick, she was forcefully held down and thrown onto the sofa.

The sofa, made of genuine leather with plenty of bounce, flung Meng Yi’s body up and then down again. In the whirl of her world turning upside down, the man had already pressed down on her, pinning her beneath him.

With all her limbs restrained, she was so dizzy and blurred that she had no strength to struggle.

She had already exhausted her energy while trying to save someone just moments ago, and now with this commotion, sweat dampened her temples, and the wet strands of hair clung to her fair forehead while her cheeks were flushed with intense panting.

"Tang Jingyao," Meng Tian glared at the man atop her, "I am accusing you of assaulting an officer. Let me go."

"Assaulting an officer? Does Forensic Doctor Meng have any evidence?" Tang Jingyao sneered, "Or is it enough for a police officer to accuse someone with just their words?"

Suddenly, he leaned down and kissed her lips fiercely—not so much a kiss but more like a wild beast savagely biting its prey in revenge.

Meng Tian felt a pain on her lip and tasted the tang of blood in her mouth. She shook her head, trying to dodge, but this only made him more aggressive.

He entangled with her tongue, gnawing, sucking, biting, as if he intended to tear off that tender piece of flesh.

It was devoid of any desire, just pure humiliation and invasion.

Only when the phone rang did the "gun smoke" gradually subside.

Tang Jingyao rose from the sofa and took out his phone; it was a call from his assistant.

He tightened the bathrobe he was wearing and walked out of the rest room without looking back. The moment the door closed, Meng Tian heard his words—half warning, half mocking: "Forensic Doctor Meng, there will be other days."

Drained of all her strength, Meng Tian lay on the sofa.

Her chin hurt, her lips hurt, her knees hurt, and even the slightest movement caused her to inhale sharply.

What was supposed to be a rare vacation trip turned into an encounter with the psychopath Tang Jingyao—an unfortunate crossing of paths, indeed, very unlucky.

It took Meng Tian a while to get up from the sofa. In her struggle and resistance, her collar had been torn open, and buttons had popped off, now nowhere to be found.

She called a server at the doorway, who immediately took her to a VIP room.

This was a high-end hot spring resort where ordinary people could hardly afford to come.

A simple buffet meal alone cost 19999 yuan, not including other charges.

She was using Mr. Meng’s card and receiving VIP treatment.

Meng Tian took a bath and began to treat her wounds with a medical kit.

It wasn’t until she saw herself in the mirror that she realized how ghastly the injuries were.

The wound on her lips was one thing, but her wrist was ringed with bruises, as if she had been bound for a day, and her knees and arms had also been scraped raw, flushed with a fiery red.

Meng Tian gritted her teeth, really wanting to charge him with assaulting an officer.

After applying the antiseptic, Meng Tian changed clothes and went to settle the bill.

Tang Jingyao might not have left yet, and staying might risk another encounter with this King Yan, something Meng Tian certainly didn’t want to put herself through again.

Upon reaching the parking lot, she saw her car’s tires deflated, all four wheels were flat with a long, gaping slash on them, looking like a hideously laughing mouth.

This hot spring resort was located in a suburb with no public transportation and not even a taxi in sight.

She didn’t need to guess who was behind this.

Meng Tian cursed under her breath for the juvenile act and, unfazed, leaned against her car to start making calls.

Did he think that with flat tires, she wouldn’t be able to leave?

Ha, did he think she couldn’t call a car as if she were mute?

Meng Tian had Meng Yusheng send a driver to pick her up, and while waiting, she sat by the roadside with headphones on, listening to music.

Until a car approached from a distance, roaring loudly as it passed her by.

Meng Tian was choked by the exhaust, causing her to cough violently and quickly jump up from the roadside.

The car stopped in front of her, and as the window rolled down, a man’s signature harmless smile was revealed.

People in the circle called him Mr. Xiao because he always greeted others with a smile, but how much genuine warmth, thin affection, or distance that smile contained was unknown to all.

Meng Tian took a step back, her gaze directed elsewhere.

If the young master wanted to see her embarrassment, then let him watch.

Waiting two hours for the car really wasn’t a big deal for her; she was accustomed to roughing it with the investigation team.

Sometimes, the local station on the island would request help from the district bureau, and they would need to trek over mountains and seas, bracing untold hardships.

"Forensic Doctor Meng, is your car broken down?" The man’s lips curved slightly, a hint of malice showing.

Meng Tian replied, sarcastically, "Yeah, the car got peed on by a dog, rusted through, and won’t start. No idea where that stray dog came from, indiscriminately peeing everywhere."

Tang Jingyao wasn’t offended by her insinuation but instead deepened his smile, "What about the injury on Forensic Doctor Meng’s mouth?"

Meng Tian rolled her eyes, "Also bitten by a dog."

"Then Forensic Doctor Meng might want to reflect on what kind of vibes you give off to attract these things."

His insult was veiled, but Meng Tian understood it all the same.

She called him a dog, so he called her shit!

"Mr. Tang, you’ve got time to spare? Not in a rush to accompany your lady friend at the hospital?"

Tang Jingyao leaned casually against the car window, smoking, "Out of consideration for Uncle Meng, I could give Forensic Doctor Meng a ride."

"No need." Riding in his car would leave her nearly skinned alive, was she that foolish?

"Then Forensic Doctor Meng can continue waiting here at your leisure." Tang Jingyao flicked his cigarette butt out of the car, narrowly missing Meng Tian’s skirt.

She stepped back, "Have you no decency?"

The car window rolled up slowly, and Meng Tian faintly heard the man’s voice, "Forensic Doctor Meng, we will meet again very soon. Good luck to you."

As the car pulled away, it sprayed her with exhaust once more.

Meng Tian picked a stone up from the ground and hurled it in the direction of the departing car to no avail; it fell short of its target.

After Tang Jingyao left, Meng Tian returned to her car to continue waiting.

For some reason, she felt his last words held a deeper message, as if hinting at something.

"Ah Yan, I just got bitten by a dog." Meng Tian patted her slightly swollen mouth and sent the message.

Ye Yan quickly video-called her.

"What happened? Come to our hospital first; I’ll find someone to give you a rabies vaccine."

"This isn’t an ordinary rabid dog; it’s a real mad dog." Meng Tian’s speech was forceful, and as she irritated her lip, she winced in pain, "Tang Jingyao."

Ye Yan was taken aback, "You encountered Tang Jingyao?"

"Isn’t that just my bad luck?" Meng Tian leaned back in the folded car seat, "I saved his lady friend at the swimming pool, and in return for my good deed, he bites me and lets the air out of my car tires. Hah, is your Fu Xingzhou also this childish?"

Since when did Fu Xingzhou become hers?

Ye Yan rubbed his forehead, "The stuff between you and him is complicated. I’ve heard people say that even though he smiles, he’s vengeful."

They were both such overbearing men, and Fu Xingzhou was no different; holding grudges and engaging in covert retaliation. "It wasn’t your fault, what happened back then."
