Chapter 441: Chapter 441: Interrogation
Yiguang felt that Shen Yiguang had been acting strangely these past few days, always looking at him at random tis, yet his expression seed contemplative.
Then she thought about the affairs of the Lu family mother and daughter, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Knowing about the affairs of the Lu family mother and daughter, Yang PeiMin had thought a lot, because their sches were not just about ddling with her family’s finances. In Peijun’s intelligence, there were other motives, but what these motives were, Yang PeiMin thought about Wen Qing, who had found a job for Lu Hailing.
Wen Qing had been at odds with her over makeup issues in the past, humiliating her, and also there was Du Juanjuan’s divorce. Although it was Juanjuan’s own fault, if they were looking for soone to bla, it would definitely be her.
So now, it was no surprise that Wen Qing would target her.
Otherwise, why would she help Lu Hailing find a job right next door to her own? This made one think further.
Yang PeiMin thought, if she were Wen Qing, what thod would she use to take revenge? Or rather, considering Wen Qing’s personality, how would she deal with her, and to what extent could the Lu family mother and daughter go? Murder? Poison? Crippling? That was impossible. No one would risk their life for such minor benefits.
Therefore, it was very probable that they would create discord in her relationship with her mother-in-law and her husband, preferably ending with her divorcing like her cousin Juanjuan.
To verify this thought, she went to ask Peijun, to ask Chen Guizhi, about so of the things Lu Hailing had done and said when she ca over.
From the details, it was clear that Lu Hailing indeed had words that could incite discord between her and Chen Guizhi. Perhaps Chen Guizhi hadn’t noticed, as she often assud the best in people, but Yang PeiMin knew after hearing it a few tis. It might not have been obvious once or twice, but after more instances, it was clear that Lu Hailing was very scheming, and her usual kindness and humility were just a façade.
After confirming this idea, she wondered about the current situation. Could it be that Lu Hailing had done sothing in front of Shen Yiguang or said sothing that caused Shen Yiguang to act abnormal?
Yang PeiMin thought more and more that this was possible, the more she thought about it, the more real it seed. Then she also thought about the possibility that they could break up over this, and then Lele and the child in her womb would end up as children of a single parent. No, the thoughts of a pregnant woman grew increasingly frightening.
Yang PeiMin pressed for answers, waiting for Shen Yiguang to co back after his shower, sitting by the bed.
As he entered, she stared at him unwaveringly.
Shen Yiguang felt uneasy under her gaze, “Wife, is there sothing on my face?”
Yang PeiMin didn’t speak, her eyes still fixed on him.
Shen Yiguang walked over.
When he was about two ters away, Yang PeiMin stretched out her hand to signal him to stop, “Just stand there, don’t co any closer, I have questions for you.”
Seeing her serious expression, Shen Yiguang slightly bowed, ready to listen respectfully.
And Yang PeiMin felt he was guilty.
“Tell , what have you been up to these past few days? Who have you talked to? What did you all talk about? Tell everything!”
Shen Yiguang was taken aback for a mont before he started talking about his morning in the military, “I returned to the military early in the morning, and when I got there, it was ti for routine morning training. After that…”
“Stop! I don’t want to hear about that. I want to hear about what happened after you left the military!”
“After the training at the military, I went to Xiao Xu’s place to pick up the car. The road conditions weren’t great today because of the heavy snow yesterday. So roads were barely used, almost no one walked on them, with piles of snow stacked high, and it was unavoidable. We had tools in the car to shovel the snow, I basically had to stop repeatedly to clear the snow before the car could pass. But, thinking of you and the child waiting at ho for dinner, I quickly finished the task. Still, I got back later than usual. Luckily, you had already finished eating dinner and didn’t wait for … When I arrived, I went straight to our doorstep, didn’t really encounter anyone. If you really ask who, it would just be the neighbor Xiao Liu who greeted . He asked if I was back, and I said I was. Just those two sentences, and then I stepped into the yard. Honey, did you hear anything? Ask anything, and I’ll tell you. Can you also tell what you’ve heard?”
As Shen Yiguang talked more and more, Yang PeiMin still reached out a hand to stop him. “Stop right there. Did you lie in what you just said? The neighbor who greeted you, was it really Xiao Liu? Not Xiao Ling?”
“Xiao Ling? Who’s that?”
Yang PeiMin glared, “It’s Lu Hailing, right? Has she not approached you? Didn’t talk to you about anything?”
A look of astonishnt spread over Shen Yiguang’s face, and sothing clicked in his mind. His face turned serious as he said anxiously, “Minmin, who told you what? I didn’t see her, nor did I talk to her. I definitely wouldn’t do anything that people would criticize or lead to misunderstandings. I’ve only t this Lu Hailing a few tis, and that was when others were present. We’ve never talked alone!”
“Really nothing? Don’t you think Lu Hailing is young, gentle, and virtuous?”
Shen Yiguang knelt down, took her hands, “Minmin, you have to believe in yourself. Lu Hailing isn’t worthy even to carry your shoes. You don’t need to compare yourself to these people. You’re irreplaceable! Every word I’ve said is true. Honey, what’s actually the matter?”
With a composed deanor, Yang PeiMin slowly asked, “Then you tell ? If you have nothing to hide, why have you been acting weirdly at these past days? Are you pondering over sothing?”
“Is it just because of this?”
“It is because of this, don’t try to fool . You know, my intuition is always very accurate!”
Shen Yiguang suddenly laughed, sat up straight next to her, holding one hand and not letting go, while the other rubbed her head. “I really am pondering over sothing, and it’s all because of you. I heard the conversation you had with Yixiang yesterday, and I’m trying to figure out how to make you believe that you hold a place in my heart, certainly no lower than my mother!”
Damn!
Yang PeiMin’s face turned red.
“So, you don’t mind what I said?”
“Honey, what you said was right! My dear, I feel like I’ve found a treasure. You’re amazing, just a few words and you managed to persuade the stubborn Yixiang… But there’s one thing: when old mother is no more, she’s truly no more, but if a wife is gone, another can be found, and that person definitely isn’t !”
“I don’t believe it! If I died, you wouldn’t marry another?”
“Absolutely not!”
“Can you really handle that?” Her gaze drifted below his waist.
The look she gave made Shen Yiguang blush at the ears, grinding his teeth angrily, yet he was helpless against her.
