Lin Wan looked at him scornfully and pulled out her mobile phone from her chest. She shook it at Fang Qiang and sneered, “Our conversation is all recorded in this phone. Do you need me to play the recording for you?”
Fang Qiang was dumbfounded, as he did not expect Lin Wan to trick him like that. He suddenly realized how he fell into her trap and asked viciously, “You agreed to meet up with me without hesitating just for the sake of recording our conversations, right?”
“Yes, heed my advice and handle the aftermath yourself. Considering we used to be friends, I’ll spare you some face. You’d better find a way out yourself!”
After saying this, Lin Wan turned around to leave the private room and headed towards the hot spring area.
Right after she turned at a corner, two people blocked her path.
Her heart clenched up.
Li Mu stared at Lin Wan angrily and asked coldly, “Where have you been?”
“I ... I
After so many accidents had happened, everyone was in no mood to continue playing. Therefore, they quickly changed their clothes and returned to the wooden house inn together.After entering the room, Lin Wan said to Li Mu, “Honey, can you go out for a while. I have something to say to Xiaoyu.”Li Mu looked at He Xiaoyu subconsciously. The latter nodded at him indifferently and said, “It’s okay, Li Mu. I won’t fight with her. It just so happens that I have something to say to her, too.”“Alright, I will leave you two to talk. Don’t quarrel or fight. I will be at the door. Call me if there is anything.” After saying this, Li Mu opened the door and went out.“Lin Wan, I’ll let you speak first!” He Xiaoyu said with a smile.Lin Wan looked at her seriously for three minutes before she finally opened her mouth to speak, “When we had a good relationship in the past, I always called you Xiaoyu, and you always called me
Mrs. Hong’s words made He Xiaoyu feel very uncomfortable. Just when she was about to refute her, Li Mu quickly explained, “Mrs. Hong, I’m the one who asked her to stay with us. I’m worried about letting her stay alone. It’s safer for all of us to stay together.”Mrs. Hong shot Li Mu a fierce glare, then glanced at Lin Wan angrily, and said furiously, “Forget it. I don’t want to care about the matters between you guys. Li Mu, tell me about that lunatic.”Li Mu told Mrs. Hong in detail about his two encounters with him. After listening to it, Mrs. Hong couldn’t help but say to He Xiaoyu, “I really didn’t expect that your skills are so good. Have you learned it before?”He Xiaoyu raised her head and said casually, “Yes, I have learned it before. I have won the equestrian championship, archery championship, and kickboxing championship. Oh right, I am also a seventh-degree black belt in Taekwondo. Are you interested in sparring with me?”
He Xiaoyu and Li Mu got out from their hiding place behind the tree. At a fast pace, they rushed towards the office building one after the other.What they didn’t know was that the moment when Lin Wan left the wooden house, the back window was pushed open quietly by someone else. A figure was seen to leave the wooden house and headed towards the office building, covered by the shadows of the woods and the darkness of the night.The figure who was silently tailing them was none other than Mrs. Hong. She tailed Lin Wan unhurriedly with the intention to provide immediate assistance when necessary.Relaxed, Mrs. Hong wasn’t worried about Lin Wan’s safety at all because she trusted Lin Wan’s competencies. These trashy men wouldn’t even stand a chance as long as Lin Wan didn’t give them any chances.After taking a few steps, Mrs. Hong stopped in her tracks vigilantly and hid in the shadows.There were some people else
Lin Wan nestled in her husband’s arms and said softly, “As the saying goes, cats hide their claws. Who would’ve thought that he was someone like that? Let’s just take it as us being unlucky to meet someone like him and ignore him from now on.”“And you!” Li Mu couldn’t help but nag, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you got yourself into such a mess? Don’t you forget that I am your husband, and I have the obligation to protect you?”Lin Wan gave her husband a kiss on the cheek and said tenderly, “You’re my husband, and I know you more than anyone else. You tend to be impulsive when things go wrong, and you act without considering the consequences. Since Fang Qiang wanted to act inappropriately towards me, you are his biggest obstacle for sure. Hence, he’ll never let things slide that easily if you attack him.” “Alas, I get it, but you can’t always act like this. I know you meant well, but you can’t just do everything with your own ju
“What plans do you have for your future?” Li Mu asked.Du Xinzhu’s gaze turned a little empty as she said with a smile, “What other plans could I possibly have? I guess I’ll just see how it goes.”“It’s not like you’re seventy or eighty years old. You’re still young. If you decide to just go with the flow at this age, do you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?”Du Xinzhu’s reply made Li Mu scoff in disdain. Her attitude towards marriage was so negative. Could it possibly be because Fang Qiang still had a special spot in her heart?“Do you still love him?”“Brother Mu, things are over between me and him. You don’t know how disgusting he is. There was a time when I found him in the bathroom. Well, you know what. He was doing something disgusting while looking at Lin Wan’s picture. That’s when I knew that we were never going back.”“Lin Wan’s picture? What picture?”“It was a
“I’ll never swim again!” Lin Wan said with a huff.“You’re being too extreme!” Li Mu comforted her, “Don’t punish yourself for someone else’s mistake. There’s nothing wrong with swimming. You look beautiful in your bikini. I like to look at you in it.”“I’ll wear it for you when we reach home, okay?” Lin Wan said shyly.“Not today, maybe next time!” Li Mu refused almost immediately. He didn’t have the mood for that right now. The only thing he wanted to do most today was to sleep.“Well, one would get tired of looking at even the most beautiful face sooner or later. Alas, women make themselves presentable for those around them, but nothing lasts forever. Eventually, when they age, those who once admired them will then turn to admire another young woman. I guess this is the shared fate amongst women!”Li Mu ignored her as he was now in a blur. The sense of relief accompanied by the fatigue from the long drive had
Mrs. Hong didn’t ask any more questions as she already got an answer from Mr. Gou’s response.This was obviously a personal vengeance. Mr. Gou had no idea of what was going on, including what was done without his consent.Mr. Gou stood up and bowed to Mrs. Hong with his fist clasped. “Ms. Hong, I am truly ashamed to cause such inconvenience to Ms. He! It’s all because I’ve been too lenient. I sincerely apologize for this and will apologize to her once again when I see her!”Mrs. Hong stood up too, and returned his greetings formally, “Mr. Gou, you’re too courteous. We have overstepped the bounds of our authority by dealing with your people. Please forgive us!”“No worries, no worries. Ms. Hong, you’ve dealt him well, and I’m thankful for that. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely give you a proper explanation in regards to this matter!” The people behind Mr. Gou felt sorry for Nan’s family. In fact, some of them had al
Du Xinzhu insisted on them staying out of this matter, hence Li Mu and the others eventually promised that they would no longer be involved in her divorce lawsuit.Everyone knew that Du Xinzhu meant well. She didn’t want them to be involved in this fiasco or get themselves into trouble.Sometimes it was hard to be a kind person, and good deeds could be more easily said than done. If you were not careful, you might just get yourself into trouble.With the evidence Du Xinzhu had, Fang Qiang would not dare to do anything to her. Hence there would be a great chance that he would take his frustration out on the people around him. Being vengeful enough, if he knew that Li Mu and the others were supporting his ex-wife in this issue, he would never let them get away with it.It was not that Li Mu was afraid of him, but as the saying went, an open enemy was better than a false friend. He could care less about himself, but what about
