Chapter 33 – Who Tampered With Her Safe? (1)
In her previous life, many said that Fang JunRong was an unreasonable, evil, and callous mother-in-law to the female lead. Everybody was pleased when she was sent to the ntal institution at the end and that Li WangJin was practically a saint for not doing more to her.
Back then, they had pretended so well that they were able to fool everyone. Well, okay, maybe not everyone was necessarily fooled. Back then, Li WangJin and Li ShiZe’s assets had increased by several folds. They had taken the #1 and #3 places on the top wealthiest list and a lot of power that ca with that. Nobody would want to risk offending the two of them by defending Fang JunRong. During this lifeti, not only did she want to reclaim what was hers, but she also wanted to tear off that fake facade of theirs.
She ordered a few small plates of food, enjoyed them slowly, and also ordered so take out that her daughter liked to take with her.
When she arrived at ho, Li WangJin had already co back. Sitting on the couch, his hair stuck together from his sweat. There was a sense of distress surrounding him. His usual scholarly elegance was goone. When he looked up suddenly, his eyes looked like that of a beast who wanted to tear a person apart. There were dark clouds inside his eyes, and his voice was filled with accusation. “You told everyone that I was buying paintings?”
Everyone in their circle knew about it, and many of them mocked how stupid and wasteful he was behind his back. Other than that Boss Su, many others called him up and sang Fang JunRong’s praises to him. All the complints for Fang JunRong made Li WangJin feel like he had just swallowed a fly – his stomach roiled with disgust. He had worked so hard and lost so much money on it, and all that ca out of it was improving his wife’s reputation? How could he not want to puke blood?
Fang JunRong chuckled slightly and responded in a casual way, “I didn’t think that was sothing that needed to be kept on the down low. Why can’t I share that?”
Li WangJin imdiately responded anxiously, “You have no idea what they said about behind my back.”
Fang JunRong put on a more serious look and said to him, “It’s better to tell them the truth rather than them speculating about what was going on. Many thought that your selling so much stocks in a hurry was because our company was cash-strapped. A few of our contracted companies wanted to back out of the contracts. I had to explain it to them.”
Li WangJin was suddenly speechless. That had not occurred to him.
Fang JunRong carried on, “So of them even whispered to that you were cashing out so much because you are having an affair. I can’t possibly let them think that of you, so I had no choice but to clarify it.
“Sun i even told today that she saw you having lunch with a woman and the two of you looked quite intimate. Was that true?” She looked directly at Li WangJin as she said that.
Under her stare, Li WangJin felt that he was standing stark naked under the sun, and there was nowhere to hide. The only thing that was in his mind was Wang SiXian’s tender and affectionate look. He shook his head to shake off the image – no, there was nothing going on between the two of them. He was only extending the olive branch to Wang SiXian because of Wang SiEr.
He said in a righteous tone, “You shouldn’t hang out with that gossiping Sun i. She never felt happy about how loving the two of us are.”
He paused, then explained himself. “She’s YaGe’s aunt. She was down on her luck and had recently returned to the country. I only t up with her to talk to her about YaGe and wanted her to spend so ti with YaGe and help her feel better. You know, YaGe had been depressed ever since her parents passed away.”
Fang JunRong only wanted to snicker. Li WangJin made Jiang YaGe sound like such a filial person. If she missed her parents so much, then she shouldn’t be spending all the ti being intimate with Li ShiZe. She was always making soup for him or picking up his room for him. Several of the servants at ho had already ntioned this to her. The two of them had been so intimate that they had started crossing the line.
