"Most importantly, I believe that even your grandfather doesn’t want you to be with my son anymore. I spoke to your grandfather before, and he actually doesn’t agree with this marriage either. Miss Song, haven’t you heard your grandfather’s opinion? If that’s really the case, I hope you’ll listen to your grandfather more... After all, he’s over fifty now, and I believe you don’t want to go against his wishes, right?"
Lu Tianming’s words struck her heart, word by word. Later, when she returned to the Mu Mansion to ask her grandfather, he indeed did not want her to be with Lu Jingchen, saying that Lu Jingchen couldn’t provide that so-called happiness.
This is why she’s still so determined to leave An City and divorce Lu Jingchen.
After returning to the bedroom, Song Qiao directly took out her phone and called Lu Jingchen.
The phone rang for a long ti before being answered. Just as Song Qiao was about to speak, she heard a gentle female voice, which seed a bit excited on the other end, "Hello, who is this?"
Song Qiao raised an eyebrow and looked at the display screen of her phone; it was indeed Lu Jingchen’s number. But what was going on?
Feeling confused in her heart, but still maintaining a bit of politeness, Song Qiao spoke up, "I’m looking for Lu Jingchen. Is he there?"
"You’re looking for Jingchen?" The woman on the other end sounded a bit surprised and quickly replied, "Sorry, Jingchen is taking a shower. May I know what it’s about? If it’s important, I can pass on the ssage for you..."
Song Qiao’s heart montarily stopped. There was no doubt that the woman on the other end easily led one to think otherwise, especially since this was Lu Jingchen’s phone. Clenching her teeth, she directly replied, "No need, thank you!"
With that, she directly hung up the phone.
Sitting in the bedroom, Song Qiao looked at her phone, feeling inexplicably sad.
Showering...
The word was too sensitive, leading anyone to think along certain lines, but Song Qiao still had her rationality. It was just after CK Group’s working hours; how could Lu Jingchen be showering?
At this mont, inside the president’s office of CK Group, Li Man stood in front of Lu Jingchen’s desk with his custom black phone in hand. Looking at the now-blank screen, the smile on her face gradually faded into an expression of calm, placing the phone back on the desk without a change in expression.
A few minutes later, the door to the lounge opened, and when Lu Jingchen ca out, he imdiately saw Li Man sitting properly there. Although he couldn’t help but frown, he still walked over to the desk, picked up his phone, and spoke plainly to Li Man, who was still sitting there, "Let’s go." He then headed towards the door first.
Li Man acknowledged, quickly stood up, grabbed her bag, and hurriedly followed. Wearing a pair of 12CM high heels and a knee-length evening dress, Li Man rushed to Lu Jingchen’s side, making her look sowhat petite.
As for Song Qiao’s call, Li Man had no intention of telling Lu Jingchen. She initially wanted to delete the call record directly, but there was a password set on the phone, so she could only think about it.
Just as they walked out of the office, Assistant Xiao imdiately approached. When his gaze landed on Li Man by his boss’s side, he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, still unable to understand why his boss chose to take Li Man to the banquet instead of his wife.
He naturally knew that the president and his wife were at odds recently, but the banquet was significant, where attendees were surely bringing their spouses, not so irrelevant woman.
Upon seeing Assistant Xiao, Li Man naturally didn’t miss the slightly disdainful look in his eyes. She couldn’t help but sneer in her heart. If she ever got the chance to beco Mrs. Lu, the first person she’d deal with would definitely be this Assistant Xiao.
But on the surface, she still maintained her impeccable smile and politely addressed Assistant Xiao, "Assistant Xiao, thank you for your trouble."
Though Assistant Xiao was sowhat displeased by Li Man’s words, he still did what a special assistant should do, nodded, and then looked towards Lu Jingchen, approaching directly, "President, the car is ready. Shall we go directly now?"
Lu Jingchen paused, glanced at Li Man beside him, nodded, and responded, "Hmm."
...
It was past ten at night, and Lu Jingchen still hadn’t returned. Although the housekeeper had prepared dinner for two, only Song Qiao ended up eating alone.
Feeling a bit of disappointnt inside, Song Qiao didn’t say anything. After taking a shower, she went straight to bed.
However, just as she fell asleep in a daze, her phone on the bedside table suddenly rang. Half-awake, she reached out for her phone, only for the ringtone to stop as she was about to swipe to answer. Opening her eyes, ready to see who dared disturb her sleep, she received a multidia ssage.
Song Qiao turned on the bedside lamp, opened the ssage, and the mont she saw the photos in it, her eyes widened in shock.
They were photos secretly taken of Lu Jingchen with another woman...
