Chapter 33 Romantic Rivals
“You keep saying you’re waiting for my wife and that you’ve always been single. That’s really disgusting. Your girlfriend just had an abortion and you’re off to other women, aren’t you? A different woman every day.”
Xiao Shun grunted lightly, “You’re a real charmer, Mr. Sun,”
“So you deserved it. You may be able to lie to other women, but you can’t lie to my wife.”
Yao Cen heard what he said. She felt that something was wrong but could not say exactly.
From Sun Chuan’s expression, what Xiao Shun just said should be true. But how did he know so many things?
“Bullshit! You’re lying! Yao Cen, don’t believe him!” Sun Chuan refuted.
“Don’t you dare show the hospital receipts in your pocket?” Xiao Shun said looking at him with a complicated smile.
Sun Chuan reached into his pocket and his expression changed dramatically.
He grimaced and said, “Just fucking wait, I won’t let you go!”
With that, he angrily pulled open the door, got into the car, and fled the scene in a panic.
“So he’s just an asshole!”
“What a ridiculous man.”
“I didn’t think it would end this way…”
The crowd dispersed after leaving their disdainful remarks.
After everyone had left, Yao Cen glanced at Xiao Shun with gratitude in her gaze and asked, “Why are you here?”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Xiao Shun raised the thermos container in his hand, “Your mother asked me to bring you this. Bone soup. She said you don’t look good lately.”
Yao Cen pursed his lips, “Take it back, I need to go somewhere now.”
“Okay.” Xiao Shun responded.
Wen Wangyu finally came back to her senses, “Why don’t we take him with us? In case we get drunk, at least we have a man there.”
Yao Cen was usually busy with work. Although she did go to parties, she rarely went to parties held by people her age.
Wen Wanyu came here today to invite her to a party where she could meet some of the city’s young elites.
She knew Yao Cen, so she figured she could make some more friends there.
For one thing it might help her with her business, and for another, if she met some guy there, maybe she could have a better man.
Now that Xiao Shun was here, they brought him along so much so that he could also meet some of the youth elites.
Maybe he would voluntarily give up Yao Cen and divorce her.
Although Wen Wangyu was a bit surprised by what had just happened, she still looked down on him.
Yao Cen hesitated for a moment and nodded, “Xiao Shun, why don’t you come with us?”
What Wen Wanyu said had some truth to it. Knowing more people might help him, and it would be nice if Xiao Shun could make a difference.
She expected Xiao Shun to be her ideal man. At least she was going to try.
Since they were going to drink tonight, Xiao Shun naturally had no objection. In case something happened, he could also help them.
So Yao Cen drove, Wen Wanyu sat in the passenger seat, and Xiao Shun sat in the rear seat as they set off for the party.
“How did you know what Sun Chuan did?” Yao Cen asked curiously as he drove.
“I just guessed.” Xiao Shun said.
Yao Cen rolled her eyes, “No shit.”
“People will show what they do on their faces, especially if he just ended a life. He’ll be tainted with dark energy.”
Xiao Shun gave a short explanation.
“And you can read faces?” Wen Wangyu said in disbelief.
“I can do a lot of things.” Xiao Shun said absentmindedly as he leaned back in his chair and looked out the window.
Weird. The road looked a bit familiar.
Wen Wanyu and Yao Cen looked at each other and pursed their lips.
“Then how did you know that in his pocket was the receipt?” Yao Cen asked again.
“I don’t know. I just know he had paper in his pocket, but he felt nervous.” Xiao Shun said.
Yao Cen once again felt speechless. She really didn’t know if what this bastard said was true or not.
About half an hour later, the car entered a villa area.
Xiao Shun’s eyes widened. Yesterday Wang Feng had brought him exactly here, no wonder it looked so familiar.
Pearl International, the city’s newest upscale villa area, was right in the middle of River Cherry and Hill Buckberg. Each of these villas took up over 500 square meters and were worth upwards of twenty million dollars, with pools, garages, gardens and more.
The car slowly came to a stop in front of a villa. At this time, there were already several luxury cars parked in the large courtyard. Yao Cen’s Audi A4 even looked a little shabby in this couryard.
As the three got out of the car, Xiao Shun frowned and looked around.
He was confused, wasn’t this his villa?
No. 93 Pearl International.
However, at that moment, his cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone. It was a very soft and nice voice of a woman. She asked politely, “Hello, are you Mr. Xiao?”
“Yes.”
“I’m Mr. Wang’s assistant, and Mr. Wang asked me to stay and help you with the procedures of the house. The documents are all ready now and I just need your signature to complete all the formalities. Do you have time now?”
Xiao Shun thought for a moment and said, “Yes, I’m here at the house right now.”
“Okay, I’ll probably need an hour or so to be there.”
“No problem, I will be waiting for you.” Xiao Shun said.
“Well, then, thank you, Mr. Xiao.”
After he hung up the phone, he looked around again. He had only been here yesterday, so he could never be mistaken.
“You’ve never seen a house this big before, you must be stunned, right? If you could buy Yao Cen a house like this, I wouldn’t need to worry about her.” Wen Wangyu taunted.
“Wanyu…,” Yao Cen said as she gently tugged at her sleeve. She did not dare to hope that they could live at such a place, and she was already happy if this useless man could become a little better.
Xiao Shun laughed helplessly. After he followed the two inside the villa in confusion, he was even more certain that this was the same villa from yesterday.
If Wang Feng wasn’t mistaken, then something was definitely not right.
But he would soon find out what that was.
“Yao Cen, why are you here too?”
The three had just entered the villa when two men approached them, one of whom was Yao Han, Yao Cen’s cousin.
They had never gotten along, so Yao Cen didn’t try to sound nice to him either, “Why can’t I be here?”
