Chapter 2700: Unique and Different From Other Women

Cheng Fei was a handsome man with a strapping figure.
Many women would find such a man immensely attractive.
On top of that, there were always many women who believed that they were unique and different from other women.
As such, they believed that they were able to captivate high-quality men.
In reality, though, they were all the same.
Cheng Fei took Ning Shu straight from the airport to their destination.
He told the taxi driver an address that Ning Shu did not recognize.
The taxi cut through the streets of the city. Everywhere around this foreign city, there were people with blond hair, blue eyes, and tall noses.
Ning Shu looked out the car window, and then asked, “Where are we going?”
Cheng Fei wasn’t trying to traffic her, was he?
No way he’d do that, taking advantage of the fact that she was foreign to this place, right?
“We’re going to my adoptive parents’ house,” Cheng Fei said. “They’re not home right now, but they’ll be there soon. We’ll just have to wait for them a bit.”
Ning Shu nodded.
Sure. They’d probably meet Cheng Fei’s adoptive parents when it was time for ghosts to crawl out of their graves.
Cheng Fei could’ve just come clean to her and told her that his adoptive parents had already died. Why did he have to go to such lengths to hide it?
It wasn’t like having dead adoptive parents was something shameful.
The taxi stopped when they reached a European-style house. It was quite a nice house, with a garden and a yard in front of it.
From the outside, it appeared like a simple, red-bricked villa. There was a green mailbox at the gate of the yard, which gave the house a very unique and retro feel.
Cheng Fei carried their luggage and opened the waist-high gate.
“What a beautiful house,” Ning Shu commented.
Cheng Fei nodded. “This is where my adoptive parents live. They are rarely ever here, though, since they’re always traveling.”
Cheng Fei took out a key and opened the door.
The inside of the house was very nicely decorated. There wasn’t a single speck of dust there.
“I had someone clean it before we arrived,” Cheng Fei said.
Ning Shu: …
Did Cheng Fei just read her mind? How could he know what she was thinking?
After Cheng Fei arranged their belongings, he said to Ning Shu, “What do you want to eat? I’ll cook.”
“I’m fine with anything.”
Ning Shu looked around the living room. Then, she turned to Cheng Fei, who was making salad for the two of them, and asked, “Why are there no photos of your parents in here?”
“I rarely ever come to visit my parents, so I don’t know much about their house anymore. There should be some, though, so I’m sure you’ll find them if you just look around longer.”
Ning Shu: …
She’d lost count of how many lies Cheng Fei had told her until now. She felt that Cheng Fei was definitely not telling her the full story about his adoptive parents.
Cheng Fei brought out two plates of salad and put them on the table.
Ning Shu sat down. She picked up her fork, stabbed it into some salad, then brought it towards her mouth.
She paused.
Cheng Fei looked at her. He swallowed the food in his mouth, and asked, “Why aren’t you eating? Does the salad taste bad?”
Ning Shu shook her head and ate the salad. She knew that there was something in the salad, but she still had to eat more of it. So this was how it felt to be in a pickle.
After swallowing a few bits of salad, Ning Shu no longer wanted to eat. She didn’t have much appetite.
“You’ve traveled a long way here. You should eat more.” Cheng Fei picked up some salad with his fork and brought it to Ning Shu’s mouth.
Ning Shu looked a little sleepy. She rubbed her eyes as she told Cheng Fei, “I’m really sleepy, I’m going to go take a nap.”
Cheng Fei… This guy actually gave her sleeping pills! These pills contained high doses of zolpidem which were highly addictive.
“Okay, then. Go get some sleep. I’ll call my parents again to see where they are now,” Cheng Fei said.
Ning Shu nodded. She’d like to see what Cheng Fei was really up to.
When Ning Shu got to the bedroom, she immediately jumped onto the bed.
The blanket smelled of the sun. It was very comforting to sleep under it. Ning Shu became even more sleepy now.
She closed her eyes. Inwardly, though, she mobilized her spiritual energy and slowly processed the sleeping pills.
