Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 912 - 911: Setting a Trap (Part 1)
About Chuxia?
Shi Che furrowed his brow slightly, his gaze slowly fixating on the man’s face.
However, a look of shame swept across the man’s face as he responded, "But I couldn’t quite hear exactly what they were arguing about."
After all, it was through a closed door, and the soundproofing of the Shi Family’s old residence is extremely good, so not hearing clearly is quite normal.
Shi Che’s dark eyes deepened, but he said nothing, only spoke lightly, "You can leave now."
"Yes." The man responded, slightly bowed, and then turned to leave.
Shi Che stood in place, unable to stop the scene he witnessed at the party from appearing in his mind, and recalled what Ling Chuxia had said, that Xiao Chen liked Ling Yunshu. Coupled with what the man just mentioned, his dark eyes narrowed little by little.
Regarding the incident Chuxia encountered the night before their wedding, he never believed it was an accident. Even though he had already caught the culprit and used various severe methods to coerce the truth, that person was incredibly tight-lipped, giving the same response no matter how he was questioned, only saying it was a ’one-night stand.’
He had also had someone investigate his background and weaknesses, revealing him to be an ordinary person, nothing special at all.
Everything, just as that person said, seemed like an accidental ’one-night stand.’
But he could never believe it, always feeling something was off, yet he had never found the answers.
Of course, when Chuxia’s incident happened, he had considered Ling Yunshu as a suspect. After all, Ling Yunshu had done many bad things to Chuxia. But... Ling Yunshu doesn’t have the capability for this.
Such a thing isn’t just about money, because money can never outweigh the importance of life. If it was just about money, that man’s lips wouldn’t have been so tight-lipped.
So while Ling Yunshu remained suspicious, he had to put it aside for the time being. However, tonight, upon learning that Xiao Chen liked Ling Yunshu, many doubts seemed to unravel all at once.
Ling Yunshu may lack the capability, but that doesn’t mean Xiao Chen lacks it.
Though the Xiao Family can’t match the Shi Family, their strength isn’t insignificant. As the eldest son of the Xiao Family, Xiao Chen possesses some competency. If Chuxia’s incident was orchestrated by him, it would make perfect sense.
Although Xiao Chen bears no direct animosity toward Chuxia, Ling Yunshu does, and a man in love with a woman is capable of anything for her.
Ling Yunshu, Xiao Chen.
The light in Shi Che’s eyes gradually darkened, with an extreme sense of danger faintly flashing inside. He opened his thin lips, muttering these two names, as a chill unconsciously emanated from his entire being.
He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. As soon as the other side picked up, he immediately said one sentence.
-
As soon as Ling Yunshu returned to the apartment, she slapped Xiao Chen without a word. But this time, Xiao Chen didn’t just stand there and let her hit him; instead, he raised his hand and directly grabbed Ling Yunshu’s wrist. He glared at her, angered, but more so disappointed, "Haven’t you had enough?"
Ling Yunshu had been forcibly taken away from the party by Xiao Chen, already filled with anger and resentment towards him. Yet now, Xiao Chen accused her of causing a scene? Her gaze towards Xiao Chen was almost overflowing with hatred, her voice sharp and cold, "I’m making a scene? Who is causing the scene now? Not only do you not help me, but now you’re hitting me and trying to stop me, Xiao Chen. Did Ling Chuxia also fill you with lies, making you want to help her at every turn?"
