Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

Chu Mengmeng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the letter almost slipped from her trembling fingertips. She raised her head and frantically searched for Xiao Yichen's eyes, trying to find the slightest flaw on his face. However, Xiao Yichen just stared into the distance silently, his brows furrowed, as if he was lost in some kind of contemplation.

"What...what does this mean?" Chu Mengmeng's voice trembled slightly, as if she was afraid of breaking the eerie silence.

Xiao Yichen came back to his senses and saw Chu Mengmeng's pale face. He stretched out his hand to hold her hand, but she subconsciously dodged.

"Mengmeng, please listen to my explanation..."

"What do you want to explain?" Chu Mengmeng interrupted him, her eyes slightly red, "Who sent this letter? Who is that 'she'?"

Xiao Yichen opened his mouth, but found that he had no way to explain. The letter came strangely, and the content was even more inexplicable. However, looking at Chu Mengmeng's hurt eyes, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

"Mengmeng, I..."

"You don't have to say anything." Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath, clenched the letter tightly in her hand, turned around and ran out of the room.

Xiao Yichen wanted to catch up, but was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the communicator. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was Su Mubai calling.

"what's up?"

"Something happened. The protective shield in the west of the city showed abnormal fluctuations. It is suspected that there is an invasion of high-level alien beasts!" Su Mubai's voice was extremely anxious.

Xiao Yichen's face changed. He didn't bother to ask Chu Mengmeng any more questions. He hurriedly said a few words and turned to rush towards the west of the city.

Chu Mengmeng ran all the way back to her room and locked herself in. The contents of the letter kept replaying in her mind, and she was confused. Did Xiao Yichen really hide something from her? Did he have another woman in his heart?

She asked herself again and again, but could not find the answer. She wanted to find Xiao Yichen to ask him clearly, but he left because of the crisis in the west of the city.

In the evening, Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er came to see Chu Mengmeng together. They had already learned about the letter from Xiao Yichen, and were worried that Chu Mengmeng might have wild thoughts, so they came to comfort her.

"Mengmeng, don't think too much. That letter must be a deliberate prank by someone who wants to alienate you and Brother Xiao." Lin Wan'er held Chu Mengmeng's hand and comforted her softly.

"Yes, we all know what kind of person Brother Xiao is. He will never do anything to let you down." Su Mubai also consoled.

However, Chu Mengmeng just shook her head, shutting herself in her own world, unwilling to say another word.

 Chapter 109: Misunderstandings lead to rifts and turbulent love (continued)

Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er looked at each other, and both saw worry in each other's eyes. Chu Mengmeng's abnormal behavior made them realize that this matter was more difficult than they had imagined. The lively and cheerful girl in the past seemed to have lost her soul at this moment, with empty eyes and no blood on her face.

"Mengmeng, what's wrong with you? You can tell us anything you want to say. Don't keep it in your heart." Lin Wan'er hugged her in her arms with heartache and comforted her softly.

Chu Mengmeng's body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. She tightly grasped Lin Wan'er's sleeve and choked up and said, "Wan'er, do you think...will he really lie to me?"

"No, Brother Xiao will never do anything to let you down!" Lin Wan'er said in a firm tone, trying to dispel Chu Mengmeng's doubts.

However, Chu Mengmeng seemed to have grasped the last straw and said excitedly: "But that letter...the content of the letter..."

"That letter is most likely just a prank, don't think too much about it!" Su Mubai interrupted, "The city is not peaceful right now, maybe someone is deliberately trying to sow discord and disrupt our morale."

"But..." Chu Mengmeng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Su Mubai.

"No buts! Mengmeng, you have to trust Brother Xiao, and you have to trust us." Su Mubai said in a serious tone, "The most urgent thing now is to find out the source of the letter, instead of speculating here."

However, no matter how Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er persuaded her, Chu Mengmeng could not let it go. The letter was like a thorn that pierced deeply into her heart, making it impossible for her to ignore its existence.

A few days later, the city guardians held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with the upcoming beast tide. At the meeting, Xiao Yichen proposed a bold plan, suggesting taking the initiative to attack, setting up an ambush outside the city, and eliminating the beast tide in its infancy.

However, Chu Mengmeng objected to this plan. She believed that the risk of taking the initiative was too great, and if it failed, it would bring a devastating blow to the city.

"What do you mean? Do you want to sit and wait for death?" Xiao Yichen frowned, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"That's not what I meant..." Chu Mengmeng wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Xiao Yichen.

"Then what do you mean? Do you know that if we don't take the initiative to attack, everything will be too late when the beast tide arrives at the city!" Xiao Yichen's voice became louder and louder, and his tone became more and more excited.

"I just think that we should act cautiously instead of risking the safety of the entire city!" Chu Mengmeng retorted without showing any weakness.

The two of them argued back and forth, neither of them was willing to give in, and the atmosphere in the conference room was tense. In the end, the argument ended in a bad mood.

After the meeting, Chu Mengmeng left the meeting room alone, her eyes full of disappointment and pain. She didn't know why things between her and Xiao Yichen had turned out like this. Could it be that love really couldn't stand the test?

On the other side, Xiao Yichen looked at Chu Mengmeng's departing back, feeling mixed emotions. He wanted to chase after her to explain, but when he thought of the letter between them, he hesitated again.

At this moment, Su Mubai came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Brother Xiao, there are some things that cannot be solved by running away."

Xiao Yichen remained silent. He knew that Su Mubai was right. However, he didn't know how to face Chu Mengmeng, nor how to explain the letter.

At this moment, Chu Mengmeng made a surprising decision: she decided to leave the city alone to find out the truth about the letter...

Chu Mengmeng packed her bag without saying a word and quietly left the city under the cover of night. The city gate slowly closed, as if cutting off the last trace of contact between her and Xiao Yichen. Su Mubai saw everything and sighed worriedly. He knew that Chu Mengmeng would definitely face many difficulties on this trip.

When the news reached Xiao Yichen, he was studying the city defense deployment map. Hearing that Chu Mengmeng left without saying goodbye, the map in his hand slipped and his face became extremely ugly. Anger, worry, self-blame, all kinds of emotions intertwined, making him feel confused. Seeing this, Su Mubai hurriedly comforted him: "Brother Xiao, don't worry, Mengmeng is a lucky person, nothing will happen to her."

"How can I not be anxious? She's a girl, alone outside, what if..." Xiao Yichen stood up suddenly, but stopped dejectedly after taking a step. He was now shouldering the responsibility of protecting the entire city, and he couldn't abandon everything and follow Chu Mengmeng.

"I will send someone to protect her secretly." Su Mubai understood his concerns and whispered, "Don't worry, I will bring her back safely." Xiao Yichen nodded, but his clenched fists revealed his inner uneasiness.

After leaving the city, Chu Mengmeng finally realized the cruelty of this world. Mutated beasts were rampant, thieves were everywhere, and every step was full of danger. But she did not back down. She had only one thought in her mind: find the truth and prove herself!

Once, Chu Mengmeng was attacked by a group of ferocious mutant wolves. Just when she was about to die, a black shadow flashed by and easily solved all the threats. Chu Mengmeng looked up in shock, but was stunned when she saw her savior: "Why is it you?!"

The person standing in front of her turned out to be the mysterious person she had met once before, and what shocked her even more was that this person was actually...

Along the way, the mysterious man helped Chu Mengmeng resolve several crises, but he remained silent and was unwilling to reveal his identity and purpose. Chu Mengmeng's originally anxious heart gradually calmed down during this journey. She began to reflect on her previous impulsiveness. Perhaps it was because she was too sensitive that the misunderstanding became deeper and deeper.

However, just when Chu Mengmeng was about to give up the investigation and return to the city, an unexpected discovery made her realize that things were far from as simple as she had imagined. A bigger conspiracy was quietly surfacing, and she and Xiao Yichen were involuntarily drawn into this vortex...
