"Hongqiang, the youngest son of my neighbor of several decades in my hometown is getting married. My parents and I will attend the wedding tomorrow. They suddenly remembered that you booked tickets to Xiaoshan for them. Since our schedules conflict, I will refund the tickets to Xiaoshan."
After saying this, Chen Yuru carefully observed Tang Hongqiang's expression. She still caught Tang Hongqiang's slight frown, but he continued to drink tea as if it didn't matter.
"Oh, it's okay. I just saw that my parents wanted to go, so I booked it when they were free. Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?"
"No need. You don't know the neighbors. Work is more important. I'm worried about Yueyue being alone at home during the day. I'll take her with me. She should be back the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, going back to my hometown will also allow me to take my parents Yueyue out for some relaxation, which is good, no need to rush."
Chen Yuru forced a smile, "Your stomach has always been bad, so don't fool yourself when you eat at home."
Tang Hongqiang nodded, with a smile on his face, took out his phone, clicked on a woman's profile picture, and sent a message, "You decide how to arrange tomorrow night."
"What's so happy about Hongqiang?"
Seeing Chen Yuru coming over, Tang Hongqiang casually opened the short video platform and said, "Nothing, I just saw a very interesting video."
Chen Yuru's eyes turned cold and she picked up an apple and started peeling it.
After so many years of getting along, she could tell whether Tang Hongqiang was lying or not through some of his micro-expressions, but she had never considered that Tang Hongqiang would leave her.
After her daughter's reminder, she paid close attention these days and found that Tang Hongqiang was indeed hiding something from her.
The next day, Chen Yuru took Tang Yue back to her parents' home early. She commissioned a private detective to investigate Tang Hongqiang.
The private detective came to Tang Hongqiang's unit and told the front desk that he was looking for Sun Yan. Soon Sun Yan came downstairs.
"Are you Sun Yan?"
Looking at the other person's enthusiastic smile and the things he was carrying, Sun Yan was a little confused, "Who are you?"
"Ah, I'm your father's friend, can I have a word with you?"
Not wanting everyone to know that her father was the director, for fear of causing any bad influence on her father, Sun Yan led the way and motioned him to go to the reception room for a detailed discussion.
In the reception room, Sun Yan poured him a glass of water and looked at him curiously, "What's the matter?"
"I didn't expect Director Sun's daughter to be so beautiful. Director Sun helped me a lot, but every time I wanted to thank him, he never gave me a chance."
He handed over the gift box in his hand. Sun Yan frowned. This way of giving a gift was too direct. She was still in the unit, and it would not be good for herself and her father to give away such a big gift box. So she refused seriously.
The man looked embarrassed and took out an exquisite jewelry box. "If you don't want the previous gift, you must accept this brooch. I asked for it from a Feng Shui master. It's a token of my love. Wearing it can stabilize your love. I don't know if you have someone you like. Please forgive me for making such a decision without your permission."
Sun Yan's eyes lit up when she looked at the exquisite brooch. The other party had been very polite and she had already refused once. She didn't know what the relationship between this person and her father was like, and she was afraid of losing face if she refused again.
No one will notice a brooch-sized gift, not to mention that the brooch has a good meaning. Influenced by my father, I believe in Feng Shui since I was young. The brooch asked from a Feng Shui master can stabilize my love, which is exactly what I need right now.
Sun Yan happily put the brooch on her chest, and after some simple politeness, the detective walked out of the unit.
The detective who was leaving had a smile on his face. The brooch with the eavesdropping function was what he really wanted to give as a gift.
Chen Yuru sighed as he watched the video sent by the pinhole camera. There really was a person named Sun Yan in his unit, and she had acknowledged her relationship with the director.
Since it was impossible for her daughter to know the personnel structure of his unit, Chen Yuru had to believe what Tang Yue said.
Chen Yuru sent her daughter to her parents' home, and then rushed to the school district house. She contacted the agent to take photos of the school district house and posted them online. She planned to wait for her daughter's competition results to come out before convincing her parents to sell the house. She could promote it for a few days to test the waters.
"What did yesterday's message mean? I can really arrange tonight however I want?"
"Well, I'll do as you say."
"It's okay if you don't go home to spend the night? What about that yellow-faced woman?"
"She has returned to her hometown with her children. No one will bother us anymore."
"When are you going to divorce her? I don't want to stay like this."
"It's almost there. Give me some time. Our previous plans have been affected."
Chen Yuru felt a palpitation when listening to the audio sent by the detective. It turned out that the person next to her really wanted to leave her and had even made a plan before.
What plan? A trip to Xiaoshan? Chen Yuru felt a chill in her heart. If her parents died in Xiaoshan as Tang Yue said, would it have anything to do with Tang Hongqiang who booked the tickets?
I can't lie to myself anymore. If I don't make changes, my daughter and I will really die at their hands.
Her hand holding the phone was shaking a little, "Hongqiang, I will take my parents and Yueyue to stay in my hometown for a few more days, you take good care of yourself."
My daughter is going to Qingzhou for an exam soon. She doesn’t want to go home these days. She is afraid that she won’t be able to control her emotions when facing Tang Hongqiang.
"Okay, it's okay, have fun."
The seemingly considerate reply changed its tone in the audio later.
"That's great, Yan. She won't be back these few days. I'm yours for these few days."
"Really? Then I'll ask my dad for a leave for you. I want to drain all your ammunition out of you in the next few days."
"Well, I'll keep them all for you. She and I haven't done it for a long time."
"You should divorce her quickly and never do it with her again. You can only do it with me!"
"It's up to you!"
Sun Yan touched the brooch and didn't expect it to be so effective. She received such good news right after she put it on. It seemed that accepting this gift was a wise choice.
Chen Yuru felt her heart aching in front of the phone. She could even imagine Tang Hongqiang's expression when he said those words. She didn't expect that the person she loved so much had already planned to leave her.
Tears flowed uncontrollably and she tried to calm herself on the way home, fearing that her parents would worry.
When she returned home and saw her parents were so happy being coaxed by her daughter, Chen Yuru felt a little relieved. Now that the important people were still around her, everything was still in time.
"Our Yueyue has grown up and is much more cheerful than before."
Tang Yue enjoyed the praise from her grandma and grandpa. She hadn't seen the old couple for a long time, and after so many years of missing them, she finally met them again.
"Xiao Ru, are you feeling unwell? You look a little pale."
Chen's mother came forward with concern. Tang Yue had already guessed what had happened. It was her idea to let a private detective investigate.
"Mom, Yueyue and I will be staying here these days. Yueyue will go out of town for an exam in a few days, so we should let her review well."
"Okay, okay, you guys stay here, but what about Hongqiang..."
Chen Yuru sighed, as if she had made up her mind. She needed to make her parents mentally prepared and be wary of Tang Hongqiang.
"Dad, Mom, I have something to tell you. I plan to divorce Tang Hongqiang."
