At about 10:30 that evening, Shang Boyu called as usual. Meng Sheng's tears had already soaked the quilt. She didn't answer. After the ringing stopped, she slowly sat up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

She didn't receive a call from the first lady the next day, but when she came back in the evening, she found that Shang Boyu, who said he was going on a "business trip" for three to five days, suddenly appeared at home.

There was a large bouquet of roses on the coffee table in the living room.

She was quite surprised.

Seeing the surprise on her face turn into joy, Shang Boyu's eyes relaxed and he smiled gently, "Do you like it?"

"I like it." Meng Sheng nodded, gently stroked the petals, tried to let his eyes be filled with joy, and asked in surprise, "Why did you come back today? Isn't it still a few days?"

"I came back after I finished my work. I didn't tell you because I wanted to give you a surprise."

The so-called finishing of work means that Ning Weiwei has been accompanied well.

Meng Sheng felt heavy in his heart.

She never realized that laughing was so difficult.

In the past, Shang Boyu would come back early from business trips and give her all kinds of surprises.

He is a romantic, gentle and considerate person, and he has always been so perfect over the years.

Meng Sheng couldn't find any flaws in him.

But only such a person without edges and corners can perfectly conceal his originally dark and dirty heart.

"You look fine today. Are you feeling well?" Shang Boyu held her hand, his eyes filled with extreme tenderness and affection.

She remembered the last video the private detective sent her last night. Fireworks were blooming in the night sky, and the same was true of his eyes when he looked at Ning Weiwei.

When Ning leaned shyly into his arms, he raised his hand to stroke the back of her head and kissed the top of her head lovingly.

That scene kept replaying in her mind.

So disgusting.

Her throat was choked up, and the sound that came out was bitter. "No, I'm fine."

As she spoke, she pulled her hand out and said, "I'll take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments first."

She took several photos of the bouquet of roses, picked one of them, and changed the filter.

Caption: Gentleness is a rose, and love is embodied.

Before sending it, she held her phone in front of him and asked excitedly, "How is this copy?"

The smile in Shang Boyu's eyes deepened, "Do you like it so much?"

"I like it." After Meng Sheng posted on WeChat Moments, he put away his phone and said, "I'll go find a vase to put the flowers in."

"Okay, go ahead, I'll cook for you, what do you want to eat?"

"Aren't you tired after just coming back? Just let Aunt Zhang do it, and you can take a rest."

Shang Boyu gently tapped her nose with his finger and said lovingly, "How can I be tired when I cook for you? That is happiness, happiness that belongs only to me."

As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "After you finish arranging the flowers, you can go upstairs and change your clothes."

Meng Sheng was in a daze for a moment, watching his back as he went to the kitchen, and always felt that it was a little unreal.

It’s so close, but I can’t touch it.

It took her a while to look away, then she turned around, found two porcelain vases, and put the rose cuttings in the vases.

bite!

Just as I put the last rose in the arrangement, the text message ringtone rang.

She was startled and took out her phone to check: [In the pocket of the gray coat Shang Boyu wore yesterday were the tickets to the Oceanarium that he and Ning Weiwei bought together. In the suitcase were the couple dolphin pendants that he and Ning Weiwei bought, which were exclusive commemorative pieces for the Xiyuan Oceanarium. You can also check the round-trip flight order on his phone, as well as the WeChat bill. ]

Meng Sheng pursed her lips, went upstairs and saw his black suitcase in the cloakroom.

She bought this box for him two years ago.

The password was their wedding anniversary, which she set.

When I opened the box, I saw that the spare clothes and toiletries inside were neatly arranged.

There is no mess at all.

In the past, when the two of them went out to play, Shang Boyu was the one who packed the things. He didn't need to ask, because he knew what things she would use and could even match each of her clothes.

Meng Sheng took out the coat and, as expected, found two tickets to the aquarium in the right pocket.

The time and price are printed on it.

He then easily took out the dolphin pendant mentioned in the text message from the box.

The little blue dolphin is very cute and delicate.

The price tag on it has not been removed.

The price is 399.

Meng Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth sarcastically, suppressing the sadness that seeped out of his heart. He put the ticket and pendant together and took a photo, then put the things back in their original place and closed the box again.

In the evening, Shang Boyu cooked five dishes, all of which were her favorites and also what he was best at.

"I'm afraid you're hungry, and it's too late to make soup. I'll make you yam, pork ribs, and barley soup tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter. My stomach isn't that big, so I can't eat so much."

Meng Sheng's appetite was still mediocre. He only ate half a bowl of rice and then put down his chopsticks.

"Have you finished eating?" Shang Boyu frowned, "Why did you only eat so little?"

"No way, I ate a lot of food."

Shang Boyu smiled helplessly, "Okay, okay, I ate a lot. I'll just have to eat a little more tomorrow."

When Meng Sheng came out of the shower, he was packing his suitcase.

"Do you need help?"

Shang Boyu looked back at her, smiled, shook the suit jacket in his hand, and put it in the closet, "No need, I've already done it."

Meng Sheng nodded and glanced at the empty box on the ground.

"Come on, I'll help you blow dry your hair."

"box……"

"It's okay, just put it here first, and I'll take it away after I blow it for you."

Meng Sheng didn't say anything. She sat in front of the dressing table, quietly watching Shang Boyu in the mirror plug in the hair dryer and gently lift up the dripping wet hair with his fingers.

The sound of the wind hit her eardrums like a drum.

It made her thoughts more confused and she couldn't grasp the main point.

The man in the mirror had gentle movements and a warm expression, and everything seemed natural.

After a while, the wind stopped and my hair was dried.

Shang Boyu gently stroked her fair and smooth cheek with his fingers, "Okay. I'll go take a shower first."

Meng Sheng came back to his senses and raised his eyes with a faint smile, "Well, go ahead."

After taking care of her skin, she threw back the quilt and sat on the bed, looking at the circle of friends she posted more than two hours ago.

There are already more than forty likes.

There are more than a dozen comments.

There were mutual friends in their circle, as well as friends she knew, all of whom envied her and praised Shang Boyu for being romantic.

Ning Weiwei didn't like the post, but she did comment: [The flowers look OK, but they're not big enough. I'll ask Shang Boyu to buy bigger ones next time. Is he sincere?]

She is not a person who likes to post on WeChat Moments or show off her affection.

Sometimes when Shang Boyu sends her something or a meal he cooks, Ning Weiwei never likes it, but only comments.

These were all critical remarks and expressions of dissatisfaction with Shang Boyu.

Looking at these words again now, there are actually traces to follow.

Does she really not mean to sow discord?

But it doesn't matter now.

Ning Weiwei's biggest attempt to sow discord was to make Shang Boyu betray her.

Scrolling further, I saw a familiar yet surprising profile picture in the fifth like.

Pei Sui!

He even gave a like.

Meng Sheng was quite surprised.

Shang Boyu came out of the cloakroom with his pajamas and asked casually, "What are you looking at?"

"Look at the circle of friends I just posted."

"How about it?"

“There are so many likes and comments that I can’t keep up.”

Shang Boyu smiled and went straight to the bathroom.

Hearing the sound of water coming from inside, Meng Sheng quickly picked up his phone and unlocked it.

Shang Boyu’s business trip tickets are usually booked by his assistant. He only uses the ticket booking app on the WeChat mini program when he goes out with her.

They bought a first-class ticket for 7pm the night before yesterday and returned at around 8pm yesterday.

The time was planned too perfectly by the two of them.

Meng Sheng chuckled, but her eyes were cold. After taking a photo as evidence, she opened the WeChat bill again.

The air ticket expenses from the day before yesterday were paid to the hotel, and there were 79 items in total including yesterday's bill.

The small amounts range from five or six yuan to several thousand yuan.

The total amount is more than 60,000.

For example, the recipients in the oceanarium all have fixed names.

She didn't miss a single detail and took photos of them all.

After putting the phone back, she suddenly thought of Ning Weiwei's Instagram. Given her personality, she might update the status to show off.

She logged into her Instagram account and found that Ning Weiwei's new update was posted at around midnight today.

It was a photo of her taken at the aquarium. She looked pure, pretty, gentle, and a bit bright.

There are two photos of her and Shang Boyu, but they are not front-facing photos of Shang Boyu. One is from the back and it looks like a selfie taken by Ning Weiwei.

The other one is a side view, with the camera pulled far away, and Ning Weiwei put her arms around his waist and snuggled in his arms.

It was shot like a blockbuster movie.

The waves in Meng Sheng's eyes could not calm down. She looked for a long time before she left the room, lifted the quilt, lay down on her side, and closed her eyes.

Thinking back carefully, it seemed that he would bring her gifts every time he came back from a business trip.

Those gifts probably carried his guilt, and he deceived himself into thinking that if he made up for it, he would feel better.
