Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Catching Adulterers at Midnight Delivered Right to Your Door…
Ning Yichu thought about Shen Jiangqing’s repeated provocations, the many incidents at the inheritance competition, and now her private life being exposed. Her tone shifted, carrying a hint of mocking sarcasm as she spoke, “Young Master Mu, you might have misheard. President Li must have been calling for Miss Shen; you should dial her!”
“Xiao Chuchu, I’m not at the age of deafness yet, so don’t question my capability.”
“Oh, then let’s assume you heard clearly, but I’m sorry, I happen to be a pregnant woman now, and I’m not in a position to take care of someone throwing a drunken tantrum.”
“Xiao Chuchu…”
“I have some things to take care of here. Goodbye, Young Master Mu, and thanks for your care for Ningning.”
Slam!
Once Ning Yichu finished speaking, she decisively hung up the phone. Was she supposed to go over there just to be picked on?
During the inheritance competition, she had left with Mo Baiyou. Who knew what Li Lingyang was thinking now? What if he lured her in to force her to have an abortion…
Ning Yichu shuddered at the thought, actually feeling that Li Lingyang was capable of doing something like that.
Every hair on her body stood on end, and she tossed aside her phone and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.
Bang!
In the private room, the man sitting on the couch did not seem the least bit drunk.
Upon hearing Ning Yichu’s nearly mocking words, he suddenly erupted, smashing the ashtray on the table violently to the ground!
“Pregnant woman,” “throwing a drunken tantrum!”
Is that how she’s protecting her child with Mo Baiyou?
Veins near Li Lingyang’s temple pulsed as ire flared up in his eyes.
Mu Bailang couldn’t help but be amused to see how the tables had turned. Li Lingyang always seemed to end up on the losing end when dealing with Ning Yichu. How did he still resemble the unanointed king of the business world?
A smirk played on the corner of Mu Bailang’s lips, “Old Li, cool down. With a pregnant woman, indeed, there is more to consider. However, I think Xiao Chuchu’s words carried a bit of reproach. Could she know that you’ve hired an online army to hype up her affair with Mo Baiyou…”
Before he could finish speaking, a withering glare from Li Lingyang cut him off, as if to warn: Try spouting any more of that nonsense!
“Let’s drink, let’s drink… Today we drink until we drop.” Mu Bailang laughed and kept pouring liquor for Li Lingyang, casually calling the server to add another dozen bottles.
After some time passed, Li Lingyang drank himself into a stupor, truly drunk.
Countless scenes flickered before his eyes like a slideshow.
The first night he spent with Ning Yichu, the feeling of overcoming obstacles, set all of his passion ablaze…
When he woke up the next day, he was confronted by a crowd accusatory of adultery, and he was forced to marry Ning Yichu.
But he was never one to submit to circumstances, so he stayed away from home for a long time, leaving her alone in their empty marriage.
He also wanted revenge, to show her he wasn’t a man she could play with.
Who knew that the marriage would end so soon after.
Mu Bailang couldn’t leave him there, so after hesitating, he called Shen Jiangqing.
In less than half an hour, Shen Jiangqing appeared at the entrance of the private room at the Jiangnan Club.
“Young Master Mu, why is Aling so drunk?” When Shen Jiangqing received Mu Bailang’s call to pick someone up, she thought it would be just a mild drunkenness, but the man lounging lazily on the leather couch, with unfocused eyes, seemed far from sober.
Mu Bailang replied coolly and distantly, “Take him away.”
“Okay.” Shen Jiangqing was elated at heart. She had failed to catch Li Lingyang at the mountain resort last time, but now he was drunk; wasn’t this a golden opportunity?
Shen Jiangqing and the driver supported the tottering Li Lingyang and left. Mu Bailang crossed his legs and settled into his seat, thinking that if Xiao Chuchu wasn’t going to come, then Shen Jiangqing would benefit from the situation.
He had also drunk quite a bit, rested for a while, and then left, rubbing the corner of his forehead.
Downstairs at the club, as the driver was about to help Li Lingyang into the car, “Miss Shen, are we heading back to Yudu Long Bay now?”
“No need.” Shen Jiangqing’s lips curled into a sinister smile as she caressed Li Lingyang’s handsome face, laughing with dark infatuation, “I’ve already booked a hotel.”
Yudu Long Bay had too many prying eyes, including a few servants bribed by the old lady!
What if those people tattled to the illegitimate seed, and he came to make trouble?
Tonight, she couldn’t let Li Lingyang escape again!
…
Ning Yichu finished her shower and simply washed some of her underclothing before hanging them up to dry.
She was surprised to find herself feeling very spirited, not sleepy at all.
She increasingly believed that she wasn’t pregnant, but rather just had a common stomach flu.
What kind of pregnant woman had as much energy as she did?
Beep beep.
Her phone on the bed started vibrating.
Ning Yichu walked over to answer it.
“Chu Chu! Hurry, come catch a cheater… A private detective told me that Shen Jiangqing went to the same hotel you found her cheating in last time!” Yuke shouted.
Ning Yichu instinctively glanced at her phone; it was already eleven o’clock. She’s going to stay at a hotel so late?
Could Mu Bailang have asked her to meet Li Lingyang there?
No, that’s not right either, the hotel’s address was quite far from the Jiangnan Club, at least several kilometers…
Why didn’t she take Li Lingyang back to Duke Long Bay?
“Who is she with?”
“The private detective said she booked the room alone, and was sneaky about it, as if she was afraid of being discovered!”
Ning Yichu’s eyes lit up.
Better to kill wrongly than to let one go!
“Give me the room number!”
Yuke sent it instantly.
Ning Yichu stared at the room number, changed into random clothes, and left the house!
As long as she could take a photo of Shen Jiangqing having a secret meeting with a mysterious man, coupled with the short essay she just released, she could surely strike a deadly blow!
Even if Shen Jiangqing really was taking Li Lingyang to a hotel, at worst, it would just be a wasted trip.
Full of eager excitement, Ning Yichu hailed a taxi directly to the hotel’s top-floor suite and then hid around the corner, waiting for Yuke to arrive so they could catch the cheater together.
But no matter how long she waited, Yuke just didn’t show up…
“Chu Chu, I can’t make it!” She couldn’t help but call Yuke, only to hear Yuke’s annoyed voice on the phone.
Ning Yichu asked, “What happened to you?”
“I didn’t check the almanac before I left. I was driving too fast around the corner and accidentally scraped someone’s luxury car. Now they’re stopping me from leaving…”
“Is it serious? Are you okay?” Ning Yichu’s heart immediately tightened.
“I’m okay, it’s just that my wallet is going to suffer, wuwu!”
Ning Yichu breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as you’re okay. You go deal with that, I’ll come find you as soon as I’ve got the photos.”
“Okay.”
Right after Yuke hung up the phone, Ning Yichu saw the suite door across from her ding-dong open.
A sliver of a swaying shadow leaked through the door crack, tall and burly, vaguely making out that it was a man.
Ning Yichu’s heartbeat skipped a beat!
Was it over? Were they coming out?
She quickly adjusted her phone’s camera mode, yet after waiting for a while, the person never appeared.
Could they be having another round at the door?

Ning Yichu fixed her gaze on a huge potted plant in the corridor, steeled her heart, and quickly ran behind it.
She really wanted to see who the man Shen Jiangqing was secretly meeting?
Creak, just as she was about to hide herself, the door suddenly swung open.
A chiseled and handsome face abruptly came into view.
“It’s you?!”
