Shen Wanci originally wanted to find out some information from Lu Feng, but she didn't expect to ask a single useful question. Instead, she got herself into trouble: "I don't have extra space for you to live here, figure it out yourself." Nie Yucheng's apartment was a studio layout, and even if there were extra rooms, she wouldn't let someone like Lu Feng, a complete stranger with an unknown background, move in. "I'm your bodyguard. My job is to protect you, never leaving your side. How do I protect you?" He frowned, noticing that there didn't seem to be much room for him here: "I can sleep on the sofa." Shen Wanci refused to budge: "You can buy a tent and set it up outside. My so-called cooperation with that man you mentioned is purely professional. I've never even met him, let alone know if we're talking about the same person. In this situation, do you think I could trust someone he arranged to stay in my home?" She tacitly assumed her husband was the faceless man. Li Jie and the two people who first approached her also referred to him this way. But Shen Wanci always felt that there must be another hand at work behind it all. On the third floor of that hillside villa, was it the faceless man or someone else? Shen Wanci looked at Lu Feng, "Unless you can tell me, during your time in City A, who was that middle-aged man who was with you." There was no trace of guilt on Lu Feng's face: "I don't know what middle-aged man you're talking about. After I saved you, I left. However, I called the police before leaving. You probably saw them." Scammer. Shen Wanci rolled her eyes and limped to the door to see off the guests. She had sprained her ankle in the parking lot downstairs after stepping on a stone, and now her ankle was swollen and throbbing with every step. This Lu Feng must be here to take her. She gave them a withering look and said curtly, "Leave." Outside the door. Before Bao Jingzhou could even knock, the door swung open. Warm light spilled out along with a woman's coquettish voice, dissipating the frustration and resentment that had been building inside him all day. He couldn't help but let a smile creep into his voice as he said, "So proactive this time?" Shen Wanci's gaze was fixed on Lu Feng the whole time, she didn't notice the sound outside. When it suddenly rang out, it startled her. Turning her head, she met Bo Jingzhou's striking handsome face. "How did you get here?" The smile at the corner of the man's lips vanished completely with her words, "You don't know I'm here, so who were you just talking to?" Lu Feng's aura was strong, and he was sitting on the eye-catching sofa in a prominent position. As soon as Bo Jingzhou raised his eyes, he saw him. He hadn't noticed just now, only because all his attention was on Shen Wanci, he couldn't spare any extra glances elsewhere. Bao Jingzhou frowned: "Who is he?" For the three years he was married to Shen Wanci, he had never seen her bring anyone unrelated home. He also handled all business affairs outside the house, otherwise he wouldn't have known until so long after their divorce that she had such a successful side business. Just as Shen Wanci was about to speak, Lu Feng stood up from the sofa. He was tall and long-legged, walking to the door in a few steps: "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning." He nodded toward Bo Jingzhou: "Mr. Bo." After Lu Feng left, Shen Wanci looked at Bo Jingzhou: "What are you doing here?" She felt she had made herself very clear last night. His face was still cold. "Not in a good mood, want to have a drink with you." Shen Wanci raised her eyebrows: "What?" She felt like she had misheard. Was Bo Jingzhou looking for someone to drink with? Shouldn't he be looking for Gu Chenye? Why would he find her, his ex-wife? If a man has no other purpose, how would he suddenly invite a woman for drinks, with no one else around? Who knows what he might do to her while she's drunk, all alone like that. "You go find Gu Chen Ye to drink." When you're done, close the door. Bo Jingzhou raised his hand to stop her: "He went abroad and will be gone for half a month." Shen Wanci and Gu Chenye were not familiar with each other. She didn't have his contact information, and even if she did, she wouldn't call to confirm. "Then go find Chen Xu, find Huo Tingdong, if all else fails, pay them each some money, anyway don't come bother me," Shen Wanci irritably tugged at her hair. Seeing Bo Jingzhou still leaning against the door refusing to budge, she could only resort to a bigger move: "My aunt, can't drink." Your aunt flow is at the end of the month, it's only mid-month now, there are still half a month to go. Shen Wanci's aunt had always been very accurate, and she didn't have any issues with menstrual cramps. She hadn't expected Bo Jingzhou to know about this, her face instantly turning crimson with embarrassment, "You even investigate this? Bo Jingzhou, are you a pervert?" Bo Jingzhou was scolded out of the blue, he let out a cold snort and said, “You've always been like this since you married me. I'm not blind, you know.” "Yeah, you're not blind in your eyes, you're blind in your heart. Otherwise, how could you not see my good for three years?" "How is that possible?" Bo Jingzhou propped his hand against the door, squeezing in from the crack. "Ordering takeout for me, making congee for Nie Yucheng, lying on my bed, calling out his name? Or being drunk and crying out how she should have listened to him, not married me?" She was berated by him, completely unaware that he had already entered. "Those things all happened before the wedding." "Then you were also being two-faced before marriage? You thought he saved you, so your heart fluttered. But knowing I saved you, you only said 'thank you'. When he lent you three hundred million when he was flush with cash, you were so grateful, you practically worshipped him as a Bodhisattva. Burning incense morning and evening before leaving the house, even kneeling down to pay your respects..." Shen Wanci suspected that Bo Jingzhou was deliberately saying that Nie Yucheng was dead, and the worship ceremony at home, was it worshipping Buddha? It was clearly worshipping their ancestors. “The money I spent on you back then, add a little more and it would be twice his amount. What about you? No gratitude whatsoever, not even a thank you, and you're constantly nagging me for a divorce. After the divorce, you wouldn't even want to be in my sight.” This was the longest Bao Jingzhou had ever spoken, without pausing once. When he finished, he was a little out of breath: "Is there any water?" Shen Wanci sneered, turned and walked towards the sofa. She had completely forgotten about stopping Bo Jingzhou outside. Her head was filled with anger: "No, you still want to drink water, drink feces!" "......Bo Jingzhou pursed his lips, "Girls shouldn't be so rough, always saying those filthy things." Shen Wanci gave him a sarcastic laugh, "Heh? Don't like it? Then get lost." "No, you said it, I'm listening," Bo Jingzhou walked towards the sofa as if he were familiar with the place. He was even more like the owner than she was. When he reached the sofa, he looked at the spot where Lu Feng had just been sitting and frowned. Shen Wanci: "Can you have some face?" If I care about face, I wouldn't chase after you anymore. After all, it's obvious to everyone that Shen Wanci's determination to set boundaries with him is unshakable. |
