After finishing her business, Sang Tianen called a designated driver to take her home. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yan Zheng curled up on the sofa with a pillow in his arms, his eyes closed, and his chest heaving.
He had obviously fallen asleep while waiting for her.
She carefully changed out of her slippers, placed her bag and keychain on the counter in the entrance, and walked in.
Yan Zheng seemed to be sleeping very uneasily, with his brows slightly furrowed. Sang Tianen picked up a thin blanket and covered him with it. As soon as she moved her hand away, the man who was still asleep suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her.
Sang Tianen was stunned for a moment, then a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said softly, "Did I wake you up?"
Yan Zheng didn't answer her, but sat up silently. His silence made Sang Tianen feel a chill down his spine. He felt a little uneasy inside and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Where have you been? Why are you back so late?" Yan Zheng, who had just woken up, had a hoarse voice and a frown on his face.
"I went drinking with Zhou Feiyu." Sang Tianen felt like a wife who was caught fooling around by her husband at night.
But when she thought about it carefully, she hadn't done anything to offend Yan Zheng, so why should she feel guilty? Why should she act inferior to him?
So she followed up the previous sentence with, "Didn't you say you were going home to sleep?"
When Yan Zheng heard her words, his eyes suddenly became sharp. He scrutinized every movement and expression of Sang Tianen and said slowly, "Why, do you really want me to go home and sleep?"
"That's not what I meant." Sang Tianen waved his hand quickly, "I meant that if I knew you were coming tonight, I wouldn't go out."
This sentence did not appease Yan Zheng, but instead seemed to add fuel to the fire.
Yan Zheng raised his lips in a sarcastic arc and said, "I can understand your words as that because I'm not at home, you feel lonely and unbearable, so you choose to go out for a drink, right?"
Where did this come from? Sang Tianen looked at him in confusion and said, "Yan Zheng, are you confused after sleeping?"
Yan Zheng stood up suddenly, threw the pillow at her and said, "Am I confused or are you confused? Can you smell yourself before talking to me?"
Smell? Sang Tianen was stunned. He grabbed the collar and lowered his head to smell it. In addition to the smell of alcohol and cigarettes, there seemed to be a hint of men's perfume.
Perfume? Her eyes widened suddenly, her heart skipping a beat. This was the end of her.
"You really deserve me!" Yan Zheng's eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice became extremely hoarse, "I was just going out to have dinner with my classmates, and you actually ran away..."
"It's not what you think!" Sang Tianen hurried forward to explain, but Yan Zheng took a few steps back and dodged him.
"Don't touch me!" Yan Zheng raised his chin and said arrogantly, "I thought you would be different, but I didn't expect you to be just like this!"
Sang Tianen was also a little angry: "What do you mean by 'nothing more than that'? Killing people is not the right path, and you didn't even give me a chance to explain. Isn't that too much?"
Yan Zheng clenched his fists and nodded, "Okay, I'll give you a chance, go ahead!"
"Zhou Feiyu and I went out for a drink and called two male escorts. The smell must have been picked up at that time. I didn't do anything." Sang Tianen explained the whole story in one breath.
"Why do we need a male escort when we drink?" Yan Zheng's chin trembled slightly. He couldn't believe that Sang Tianen could say such a thing so righteously. It really opened his eyes and he didn't even want to try to deceive him.
Sang Tianen was stuck by this question. If she didn't explain now, Yan Zheng would definitely think that she was up to no good. Even if Zhou Feiyu testified for her, she would only be considered as her bad friend and the two of them were in cahoots.
If she told the truth, Yan Zheng would definitely scold her for being crazy and breaking up his brother's good marriage. He would even think that she said one thing to his face and did another behind his back, even though she was indeed hypocritical.
In short, no matter which one she says, it will affect the relationship between her and Yan Zheng.
Sang Tianen didn't want to deceive Yan Zheng, nor did she want him to know the real purpose of her going to the club, so she said, "Actually, I didn't go there to drink, I went there to do something. I hope you don't think too much about it. I haven't done anything to let you down."
"Really?" Yan Zheng sneered, picked up the phone on the table, flipped out a photo, and put it in front of her eyes, saying, "Is this what you call 'getting things done'?"
As soon as Sang Tianen saw the photo, his eyes widened. The photo was of her opening the car door and inviting Aqin in. Although the light was dim, her facial features were clearly visible.
What is going on?
"What else do you have to say?" Yan Zheng had never been so disappointed before. He threw his phone at her in anger and growled, "Speak up, explain yourself. Aren't you a good talker?"
Sang Tianen stepped forward and hugged the man who was almost collapsed, trying to calm him down: "Yan Zheng, calm down first. I really just want this man to do something for me."
"How could you be so shameless?" Yan Zheng was no longer willing to listen to her explanation. He punched her body again and again, tears streaming down his face, "How could you lie to me like this?"
Sang Tianen had no choice but to shout out the truth: "Actually, I asked this man to help me seduce Qiao Sirui!"
As soon as the words fell, Yan Zheng really stopped moving. Just when Sang Tianen thought he believed her words and breathed a sigh of relief, Yan Zheng suddenly pushed her away and picked up the pillow on the sofa and threw it at her: "Liar, big liar!"
Sang Tianen dodged and shouted, "I've already told you the truth, why are you still hitting me?"
"Do you think I will believe you?" Yan Zheng said as he picked up the broken but still usable phone on the ground and showed it to Sang Tianen. "What else do you have to say now?"
As soon as Sang Tianen saw the photo, he immediately swore. Who on earth was the wicked person who actually took a photo from this angle and showed it to Yan Zheng?
It was an extremely ambiguous photo. The young man and woman were very close to each other. The man was standing on tiptoe facing the camera, and the woman was standing in the dark night, looking at the man quietly. If Sang Tianen was not the protagonist of the photo, she would have thought that it was a couple kissing.
"Someone definitely wanted to harm me. I was talking to Xiao Qin at the time. This photo is really just a problem of angle." Sang Tianen said almost swearing.
"Xiao Qin? You're calling me that so affectionately!" Yan Zheng laughed mockingly, bloodshot already creeping into his eyes. "If you're tired of me, I can break up with you. Why would you do something like this?"
