(649)

Cai Wenchuan took out his phone and, with trembling hands, called Lin Tingyue, who was driving her car out of the airport, preparing to return.

"What's up?" Lin Tingyue's voice was sweet, as if she was in a very good mood.

"You come back here right now!" Cai Wenchuan's voice was filled with barely contained rage, almost a roar. He felt himself trembling from head to toe, as if every cell in his body was bleeding.

Lin Tingyue felt bewildered; the bookworm had never been so angry with her before. She said to him, "Okay, okay, we'll be home soon."

While waiting for Lin Tingyue to return home, Cai Wenchuan gradually calmed down.

If he asks her directly, this vixen-like woman will probably refuse to admit it. He'll have to come up with a way to trick her into telling the truth.

What method should he use? He paced back and forth in the room, slowly pondering.

The air seemed to freeze, and Cai Wenchuan felt as if a heavy lead plate was pressing on his chest.

When Lin Tingyue arrived home, kicked off her high heels, and curled up on the sofa, Cai Wenchuan came out of his room. The two stood in the living room, and Lin Tingyue asked him curiously, "What's wrong, Wenchuan? I'm back now, you can tell me." She then asked the maid to make her some tea.

Cai Wenchuan realized he had to conceal his anger, so after thinking for a moment, he slowly said to her, "You promised me last night that you would quit drugs!"

Lin Tingyue blushed, her heart pounding like a rabbit's. She glanced at him furtively and said, "Yes, I did promise you. What's wrong?" She waved to signal the servant who brought the tea to leave.

"Why did I find needles and drug powder in the house?!" Cai Wenchuan's handsome face was as black as the bottom of a pot as he glared and questioned. In fact, he hadn't found any drug paraphernalia belonging to Lin Tingyue at all; he was just making wild guesses.

Unexpectedly, Lin Tingyue jumped up as if she had been electrocuted, her face flushed red, hands on her hips, and asked him urgently, "How did you find it? I hid it so well! Don't go through other people's things!"

Cai Wenchuan never expected that his casual bluff would actually uncover a terrifying truth: her promise to quit drugs was all a lie.

She had promised so readily last night, yet she still had needles and powder hidden in her house. He stared at the young and beautiful woman in front of him; she was skin and bones, with exquisite and beautiful makeup. This must be the legendary "Pink Skull."

She has a fashionable appearance, wears designer clothes, and dresses glamorously. People outside must envy her life. They never expected that her private life would be so decadent and rebellious.

She was like a beautiful and tempting apple, but the core had been wormed.

Cai Wenchuan shouted, "You're disgusting!"

Lin Tingyue smiled and said sarcastically, "Oh, Wenchuan, what's the big deal? Let me tell you, smoking that is like smoking cigarettes. As long as you can afford it, there's no problem. Lots of celebrities smoke it—"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and made a smoking gesture.

"Shameless, despicable!" This was Cai Wenchuan's out-of-control comment.

Lin Tingyue gave a cold laugh. He cared so much, but she couldn't change it anyway, so she simply didn't care. She picked up her phone and scrolled through her WeChat Moments, casually saying, "Back then, who was it that cried and begged to marry me?"

She didn't care about Cai Wenchuan's feelings at all; her heart seemed to be made of iron and stone.

Cai Wenchuan felt as if he had been doused with ice water. He knew that if he didn't come to his senses, he would be the biggest fool in the world. He suddenly said, "Lin Tingfeng's ex-wife came to see you today."

Lin Tingyue, who was playing on her phone, suddenly looked up when she heard this, her sharp and alert eyes glaring at Cai Wenchuan like knives.

Cai Wenchuan's hands were trembling. He concealed them behind his back without making a sound. He looked at Lin Tingyue and said to her as calmly as possible, "Guess what she came to see you for?" His heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to cramp.

Lin Tingyue slowly stood up, her eyes wide open like teacups. She looked at Cai Wenchuan and asked him, "What did she say?" She was so nervous that her face had turned pale.

Cai Wenchuan slowly said, "She didn't say anything. She just said she regretted it, she wanted to return it, and she wanted to tell Lin Tingfeng the whole truth."

"She dares!" Lin Tingyue jumped up like a mad cat and shouted, "This was my plan! She could have sold the shares to me if she didn't want them, why did she have to tell me? I hired the mafia, I took the risk, she only needed to pay the money, and now she regrets it, regrets my ass!" At this moment, Lin Tingyue was like a mad cat.

As Lin Tingyue spoke, she saw the fury blazing in Cai Wenchuan's eyes, and she realized what was happening. Her whole body stiffened and turned cold.

He found out? My God! Lin Tingyue felt a wave of dizziness, as if she had experienced an earthquake, and her vision blurred.

Lin Tingyue lowered her head, hastily covering her face, and said, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously. I just got off the plane, and I was rambling a bit. It's nothing. I'm tired, I need to rest. I'll go find her."

She had just blurted out something she shouldn't have, but she was secretly relieved that Cai Wenchuan might not understand. After all, he was completely unaware of the whole thing, and since he had fallen out with Lin Tingfeng and Ye Wenyu, it was impossible for him to contact them.

So when she turned sideways, trying to slip past Cai Wenchuan like a wisp of smoke, she was still relaxed and happy. But Cai Wenchuan suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm with lightning speed. His hand was like an iron clamp, causing her a sharp pain. She looked up at Cai Wenchuan in shock, the man who had cherished her like a precious jewel since childhood. Cai Wenchuan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and said, "You've done something illegal and criminal, and you think you can just walk away like this?"
