Chen Kai hung up the phone and immediately returned home.
Upon entering, one sees a plump woman sitting on a leather sofa, heavily made up and adorned with jewels; this is his wife, Li Mei.
Li Mei comes from the renowned Li family in the city. Her family is very powerful and is someone the Chen family would never dare to offend.
Although the Chen family can be considered a wealthy family, they are nothing compared to the Li family.
Chen Kai didn't like Li Mei at all. If it weren't for the Chen family, why would he marry such a fat pig?
"Get over here!"
When Li Mei saw Chen Kai enter, her eyebrows furrowed, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she shouted sharply.
Her voice was sharp and shrill, like a broken gong, making it extremely unpleasant to listen to.
Chen Kai trembled, not daring to be negligent, and quickly put on a fawning smile, jogging over to Li Mei.
"Honey, calm down, what's wrong?"
Li Mei snorted coldly and slammed the stack of photos in her hand onto the coffee table.
"Take a look for yourself!"
The photos were scattered, revealing one disgusting scene after another to Chen Kai.
In the photos, he and Lin Wanrou are seen behaving intimately, whispering sweet nothings, gazing lovingly at each other, and even embracing.
Chen Kai's heart sank, and his face turned deathly pale.
These photos were clearly taken secretly by someone!
Who is it?
Who is so determined to ruin his relationship with Li Mei?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, yet he had no clue what to do with them.
Li Mei crossed her legs and stubbed out her cigarette in the ashtray.
"And this too!"
She pointed to another phone on the coffee table, indicating that Chen Kai should turn it on.
A recording is playing on the phone.
Chen Kai pressed the play button with trepidation, and a familiar voice came from the phone.
That was his own voice!
"Wanrou, believe me, I will definitely marry you! Once I've settled things at home, we'll get married!"
"I will give you a grand wedding and make you the happiest woman in the world!"
"I love you, Wanrou, more than anything else in this world!"
...
In the recording, Chen Kai made a solemn vow to Lin Wanrou, promising to spend his life with her.
"Smack!"
Before Chen Kai could react, Li Mei slapped him hard across the face.
Chen Kai was knocked so hard he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
His cheeks instantly swelled up and burned.
"Chen Kai, you heartless bastard!"
"You'd better explain this to me properly, what exactly is going on?!"
Li Mei was furious and pointed at Chen Kai's nose, cursing him loudly.
Chen Kai covered his face, enduring the pain, and quickly explained:
"Honey, listen to me, this is all fake, someone is deliberately framing me!"
"I am absolutely loyal to you, and I have no other intentions whatsoever!"
"As for Lin Wanrou, that was just an act. I deliberately approached her in order to obtain company benefits from her!"
"If you don't believe me, you can check how much money I've made for the Li family from the Lin Group over the years!"
He tried his best to defend himself and clear his name.
Li Mei stared at Chen Kai with a mixture of belief and doubt, her eyes filled with suspicion.
She hesitated for a moment, then gave her subordinates a wink.
"Investigate!"
His men immediately obeyed and left, returning shortly afterward.
"Madam, after investigation, it has been confirmed that Mr. Chen has indeed transferred a considerable amount of assets from the Lin Group to our Li family over the years, with a total value exceeding one billion!"
Upon hearing this number, Li Mei's expression softened slightly.
One billion yuan, while not a huge sum for the Li family, is enough to prove Chen Kai's "loyalty" to her.
Chen Kai secretly rejoiced that he had prepared in advance and taken countermeasures, otherwise he would have been finished today!
His initial reason for approaching Lin Wanrou was indeed to gain benefits from her.
He took advantage of Lin Wanrou's trust in him to secretly manipulate the Lin Group's funds, amassing enormous wealth for himself and the Li family.
Li Mei waved her hand, signaling her subordinates to leave.
Seeing this, Chen Kai quickly seized the opportunity and continued to shower Li Mei with sweet words.
"Honey, see? I told you so, didn't I? I'm truly devoted to you, how could I betray you?"
"Everything I've done is for you, for our family!"
He cried and recounted his ordeal with snot and tears streaming down his face, as if he had suffered a tremendous injustice.
Li Mei snorted coldly.
"I know you wouldn't dare!"
"Our Li family is large and powerful; we don't need to resort to such despicable means to gain profits!"
Li Mei's voice carried a hint of disdain.
"Cut off all contact with that Lin Wanrou, now, immediately!"
Li Mei stated firmly, leaving no room for Chen Kai to refute her.
Chen Kai's heart skipped a beat. His original plan was to delay for two more days until he received the last sum of money, and then confront Lin Wanrou completely.
But now that Li Mei's attitude is so firm, he has no choice but to change his plans.
"Honey, listen to me, give me two more days, just two more days!"
Chen Kai looked anxious and quickly approached Li Mei, pleading in a low voice.
"I promise that in two days, I will completely cut ties with Lin Wanrou and never have anything to do with her again!"
"One last payment, honey, just this one last one! This money can bring the Li family over two billion in profits!"
Chen Kai's voice was full of seduction.
