301 Please Me 23 (1/2)

For a couple who did not have a stable relationship to begin with, this undoubtedly worsened things further.

Gu Dongcheng originally liked playing around, and he now went home at an even later timing. A smart woman like Chi Rui'er was definitely aware of what was going on.

But she did not investigate and turned a blind eye to it.

Until tonight.

Chi Rui'er returned from the beauty parlor and passed by a high-quality women's boutique. She happened to notice Gu Dongcheng there as well.

Not only that, she saw Xu Jingwen's figure beside him.

Looking at the situation, Chi Rui'er was burning with rage.

She was already not fond of Xu Jingwen, but seeing this situation, she was now completely at odds with her.

Seeing how Xu Jingwen laughed seductively beside her own husband, Chi Rui'er could no longer take it.

For the reputation of the Gu family, however, she did not catch them on the spot but followed their car to the estate they lived in. Chi Rui'er then realized that Xu Jingwen actually lived in one of the units of a building next to their own house.

It was obvious who had rented or bought that house for her.

Looking at them get off the car, Chi Rui'er pulled her car over but did not get off. She thought of Gu Dongcheng's attitude towards her lately and firmly believed that Xu Jingwen must have told him something.

She did not think that it was her own fault at all.

She believed that all the fault lied in Xu Jingwen.

After Gu Dongcheng returned home, she gazed at the units of the building and estimated the time Xu Jingwen took to go up, thereby determining which unit she lived in.

When Chi Rui'er was clear about it, she went home.

Gu Dongcheng had gone to bathe. As Chi Rui'er looked at the bathroom door, an idea popped up in her head.

She fished out his phone from his suit pocket and resolutely sent a message to Xu Jingwen: ”Honey, I'll go and find you at 11:30 later, wait for me, okay?”

After the message was sent out, a reply came in immediately: ”Alright, love you, muah.”

Chi Rui'er immediately deleted the record of the messages. Her heart was like the scene of a battlefield and she thought, Muah? Go and die, you bitch!

She placed the phone back into his suit pocket and sat at the dressing table, staring at her own reflection. Without a sound, she stood up again.

Gu Dongcheng came out from his bath and saw that something was not right with her. He then remarked lightly, ”I've rented a house for your mother. Let her move over there.”

”If she lives alone, she won't even have someone to talk to her. I object.”

”I'll find a house nearby so you can go and accompany her, it'll be very convenient.” It seemed like Gu Dongcheng had already made a decision. ”You don't want to live with my family either, can't you consider how it is for me to live with my mother-in-law every day?”

”That's your stepmother, but this is my biological mother. Is it the same?” Chi Rui'er sat down on the bed. ”Don't mention this issue anymore, I'll never agree to it. Right…”

She thought for a moment and continued, ”Do you remember that girl Xu Jingwen whom I hired for three thousand dollars when I was pregnant?”

Gu Dongcheng was taken aback, but still pretended like he was unfamiliar with her. ”Oh… that girl? I remember.”

”I went to the hospital to do a checkup at my gynecologist's and I ran into her.” Chi Rui'er made up the story with ease, such that even her expression was flawless.

”Then?”

”The doctor said that because she'd had too many abortions done, she won't be able to get pregnant in the future,” she said smoothly while observing Gu Dongcheng's expression.

”Really?” Gu Dongcheng was indifferent about it. ”Even if she can't get pregnant, what has that got to do with us? You shouldn't care so much about other people's affairs, just care about your own issues.”

If she had not seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that his reaction was completely normal and did not indicate anything was amiss. But in reality? Her husband was a superior actor.

Chi Rui'er did not say anything further and went on the bed to sleep along with him.
