Chapter 1292 Trust Collapse
Ring ring ring.
On the first night of the New Year, not long after Ye Dongming and Zhang Qiufeng lay down, their cell phones rang.
"Boss Ye, we found Liu Zhen's whereabouts."
These words made Ye Dongming lose all sleepiness and he sat up directly from the kang.
Just as he was about to speak, he realized that Zhang Qiufeng was also woken up by the ringing phone.
"Qiu Feng, there are some issues at the company. You go to sleep first. I'll go to Yao Yao's room and make some phone calls to make arrangements."
After saying this, he got off the kang quickly without waiting for Zhang Qiufeng to speak.
Zhang Qiufeng looked at his hurried figure and suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.
It's Chinese New Year, isn't everyone in the company on holiday? Why is there suddenly a problem with this time?
And you can't say it in front of her! His eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, he put on his clothes and got off the kang.
"Where are they?"
Ye Dongming asked them instead of her, and it was obvious that he was certain that Ye Xinxin was with Liu Zhen.
"We found Ms. Liu's check-in information at a small hotel in Lincheng. She didn't register with her ID card, but we are sure it was her!
Now we are heading towards Lincheng!"
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
Ye Dongming made up his mind immediately that he must see Ye Xinxin as quickly as possible to confirm whether Li Cheng was dead or alive.
After hanging up the phone, he turned and walked towards the door. When the door opened, he saw Zhang Qiufeng standing there.
There was a slight change in his expression.
"Qiu Feng, didn't I tell you to rest? Why are you up?"
"What happened in the company?"
Zhang Qiufeng was standing outside and didn't hear it very clearly. But she heard him ask where they were. "There are indeed some tricky things that require me to go over right away. Is it okay for you to be home alone?"
There was a flash of guilt in Ye Dongming's eyes, which disappeared in a flash. It was not because he had deliberately concealed the matter between Liu Zhen and Ye Xinxin from her, but because today was the first night of the new year after all, and he should have been with her.
"Of course I have no problem with that, but it's already so late outside, how about I go with you?"
Zhang Qiufeng always felt that things were not as simple as he said, and she was indeed worried about him. It was not safe for him to go out so late.
"No need, you just rest at home. I will come back as soon as I am done with it."
Ye Dongming naturally refused. After saying that, he went back to their room, put on his clothes, and then called his driver.
The driver arrived at my doorstep in just over ten minutes.
Zhang Qiufeng stood at the gate of the yard and watched Ye Dongming get into the car.
"You are home alone, please lock the door. I will call you before I come back, and don't stay up late waiting for me."
Ye Dongming gave these instructions worriedly, he was not sure whether he could come back that night.
Zhang Qiufeng nodded, indicating that she had no problem.
The car started quickly and disappeared into the moonlight.
She was just about to go back into the yard when the neighbor's door opened.
"Qiu Feng, I heard some noise in the alley outside, so I came out to see what happened to you guys."
"Nothing, there was an urgent matter at Dongming Company, so I went over to deal with it."
Zhang Qiufeng told the truth and explained it to the neighbors.
"Is there anything going on at the company tonight?"
The neighbors were all surprised. Today was the first day of the Chinese New Year. Wasn't everyone on holiday? Besides, what was there that had to be dealt with at this time?
Zhang Qiufeng's expression froze. She knew that this matter was quite difficult to understand, but it was indeed the case.
The neighbor's eyes flickered, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. He opened his mouth, but swallowed the words back.
"Well... your Dongming is the boss of a big company, so he must be very busy. Don't think too much about it. Go back and have a rest early."
Originally, Zhang Qiufeng really didn't think too much about it, but now that she said this, it was full of hints.
She turned stiffly, returned to her own yard, and closed the door.
The neighbors looked at her figure and couldn't help sighing.
Who says being a rich man's wife means you can live a comfortable life? Rich men have all kinds of "bad" thoughts. She went out on the first night of the New Year. Who knows what she did outside? Zhang Qiufeng returned to the house. It was quiet all around, without a sound.
She looked up at the time. It was ten forty.
This should have been a night for the whole family to reunite, but now she is the only one left.
Although I told myself not to think about those messy things and that I must believe in Ye Dongming, my brain seemed to be completely out of my control.
Almost subconsciously, I thought of Liu Zhen again.
Did he go to Liu Zhen's place? I felt depressed and uncomfortable.
He wanted to call Ye Yao, but stopped when he reached the phone.
What on earth is she doing now?
Isn't it ridiculous to tell my daughter about this kind of thing?
He took off his coat and lay back in bed.
But I couldn't fall asleep no matter how much I tossed and turned. I didn't know how much time had passed when the phone at home suddenly rang.
She opened her eyes from the darkness almost instantly.
It must be Dongming who called back. He said when he left that he would call her before he came back.
Much faster than she imagined.
He quickly turned on the light and went to the phone without even having time to put on his coat.
"Dongming, are you done so soon?"
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he took the initiative to confirm.
"Haha, can you really not live without men?"
The moment the woman's sneering voice came from the microphone, Zhang Qiufeng felt sick.
And she recognized the voice immediately.
Liu Zhen!
It was Liu Zhen! Ye Dongming had just left for a short time when she called...
"I guess you're wondering why I'm calling you at a time like this?"
Liu Zhen's sarcastic words completely interrupted her thoughts and confirmed what she was thinking.
"Are you okay?"
Zhang Qiufeng reluctantly did not hang up the phone.
"Actually, there's nothing important to tell you. I just want to tell you that you don't have to wait any longer tonight, because Dongming won't go back from my place."
Liu Zhen's voice was not loud, but it was full of provocation.
Zhang Qiufeng's heart skipped a beat and sank to the bottom. The knuckles of her right hand, which was holding the microphone, turned white.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? What's the point? Dongming has come to my side now.
I told you, this man will not always belong to you alone.
You can take everything from me, and so can I!"
Liu Zhen shouted directly, feeling extremely happy.
"I can't believe you asked him to answer the phone right now!"
Zhang Qiufeng's mind went blank. Although she had felt uneasy before receiving the call, at this moment she was unwilling to believe it no matter what.
"He's taking a shower in the room now, but I guess he didn't tell you that he's coming to my place.
Well, for something like this, he would naturally find an excuse.
From what I know about him, he must have told you that he had to come out because he had something to do at the company, right?"
She was right about everything, and Zhang Qiufeng was completely speechless.
Liu Zhen laughed again, arrogantly and proudly.
"I used to think I was the only foolish woman, but I didn't expect that you are even more foolish than me! You actually believe that there are still men in this world who are loyal to each other! I'm going to find Dongming. You stay home alone. Enjoy the loneliness of this long night."
Liu Zhen hung up the phone at this point, without giving Zhang Qiufeng any chance to speak again.
Zhang Qiufeng was completely frozen in place, listening to the beeping sound coming from the phone, unable to come back to her senses.
It won't be like this, Ye Dongming will not treat her like this! Her eyes shook violently for a moment, and suddenly she thought of something, and quickly dialed Ye Dongming's mobile number.
The call was connected very quickly.
"Qiu Feng, why haven't you rested yet?"
The moment Ye Dongming's concerned voice came from the microphone, Zhang Qiufeng's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Qiu Feng, why are you silent? Is there something wrong at home?"
Ye Dongming didn't hear her voice and became a little impatient.
When he came out, he specifically instructed the guards at the door to be careful of any outsiders.
But it's already so late, no one should be entering the compound...
"I'm fine, I just couldn't sleep suddenly. Are you at the company now? How is the matter going? When will you be back?"
Zhang Qiufeng forced herself to calm down and asked him.
"I just arrived at the company. Things are a bit tricky and I may not be able to handle them for a while. Don't wait for me. I will be back as soon as I finish my work here."
Ye Dongming's voice was full of helplessness. He also wanted to stay with her.
“Are you in the company now?”
Zhang Qiufeng confirmed it with him again with a trembling voice.
As long as he said no, as long as he explained to her, she was still willing to believe him.
"Yes, I'm at the company."
Ye Dongming answered affirmatively without even thinking about it.
At this moment, Zhang Qiufeng felt as if her heart was bleeding.
"Okay, I understand. Come back early when you're done."
The moment she hung up, she really felt like she was suffocating.
The next second, she dialed Ye Dongming's office number with stiff fingers.
Five seconds.
Fifteen seconds.
Twenty-five seconds.
Zhang Qiufeng had never felt before that a second could be so long.
Until no one answered the call, the phone automatically hung up.
She was cold all over.
He cheated on her! He wasn't even in the company!
The microphone slipped from her hand, and the trust completely collapsed...
