"Brother Chen is here," Yan Zhen greeted.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Bring a few reports over for Brother Shen to review."

Yan Zhen asked, "Have you had dinner?"

"not yet."

"Let's eat together, we haven't started eating at home yet either."

Chen Yuan bent down and pulled Shen An, who was hanging from his arm, up: "Okay, thanks."

"Don't mention it, it's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks."

The two exchanged a few casual words, and then Yan Zhen turned and went to the balcony to collect the laundry.

But this scene was glaringly obvious to Shen Que.

When did Chen Yuan become so familiar with Jiang Yunong?

Then there's Shen An, who rarely speaks, but he clings to Chen Yuan as soon as he arrives, and the two are like father and son.

Moreover, Chen Yuan has been frequently visiting me lately, reporting even trivial matters about the company to me in a very attentive manner.

Did he use the excuse of reporting on his work to come see Jiang Yunong?

Once the seed of doubt was planted in his mind, Shen Que's eyes sharpened.

Chen Yuan stayed at the Jiang family's house for dinner before leaving.

As soon as he stepped out the door, Shen Li immediately shouted towards the children's room: "Jiang Yunong! Jiang Yunong!"

Yan Zhen opened the door: "What?"

Shen Que pulled out a document from somewhere: "Chen Yuan left this. He just came downstairs. Take it to him."

Yan Zhen didn't want to run errands for him: "I'm busy, ask your mother to go."

"Would it kill you to run a few steps? It's an important document for tomorrow's meeting. If you hadn't gotten me into this mess, would I need to order you around?"

Shen Que emphasized, "If you don't go, Chen Yuan will find the documents are left here tomorrow and will have to come all the way here again."

Yan Zhen then took the document, opened the door, and quickly went downstairs.

As soon as she left, Shen Que's eyes immediately darkened.

Sure enough, she immediately gave in when it came to troubling Chen Yuan.

They definitely took advantage of my hospitalization to get together!

Shen Que felt both angry and disgusted. He shuffled his stiff legs to the balcony and craned his neck to look down.

Soon, Yan Zhen appeared downstairs. She called to Chen Yuan, who was about to get into the car, and handed him the documents.

After exchanging a few words, Chen Yuan laughed.

Yan Zhen waved to him and turned to go home.

Shen Que witnessed the whole thing and felt like he was being cheated on. He was so angry that he slapped the balcony railing.

Several bundles of Huang Guilan's homemade preserved vegetables, which were drying on the railing, fell off after he slapped them.

Yan Zhen downstairs heard the noise and immediately looked up.

Shen Que quickly shrank below the balcony and hid himself.

Yan Zhen narrowed his eyes.

Back upstairs, Yan Zhen went into the children's room as if nothing had happened and continued playing puzzles with Shen An, but the scene from earlier kept replaying in her mind.

Why was Shen Que hiding on the balcony to spy on him and Chen Yuan?

She pondered over and over every word Shen Que said.

"An important document that we'll need for tomorrow's meeting."

“If you don’t go, Chen Yuan will find the documents are left here tomorrow and will have to come all the way here again.”

She seemed to understand something, picked up her phone and called Chen Yuan.

"Brother Chen, is that document I gave you the one for tomorrow's meeting?"

Chen Yuan was taken aback and said, puzzled, "A meeting? There's no meeting tomorrow. There's a press conference for Buick LaCrosse tomorrow, and I have to go."

Yan Zhen instantly felt reassured.

Shen Que suspected that she was having an affair with Chen Yuan and was secretly testing her.

Chen Yuan asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's alright. Shen Que just said he took the wrong one, but I think he misremembered."

After casually dismissing Chen Yuan, Yan Zhen hung up the phone.

She had been worried about how to lure Shen Que out, but now that he had become suspicious, the opportunity had come!

The next day, Yan Zhen put on makeup, changed into an elegant Chanel-style knee-length dress, and wore sunglasses that covered half of her face before going out.

As she was changing her shoes in the entryway, Shen Que, who had heard the noise, came out of the bedroom and asked suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

"A friend invited me to dinner."

"What friends?" Shen Que pressed. "I've never heard of you having friends before."

Yan Zhen put on her shoes and looked up at him: "What's it to you? If you're bored at home, go wash that pile of shoes on the balcony."

Shen Que: "..."

As soon as Yan Zhen stepped out, Shen Li immediately called Huang Guilan over: "Quick, follow her and see where she goes."

As Huang Guilan took off her apron, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"That slut cheated on me with someone else!" Shen Que said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Huang Guilan exclaimed, "This is outrageous!"

She threw down the apron in her hand and immediately followed him out.

Yan Zhen drove out of the residential area and saw Huang Guilan get into a taxi on the side of the road in the rearview mirror. The taxi followed her at a distance. She gave a light sneer.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the Buick Regal Hotel.

Yan Zhen didn't rush to get out of the car. She waited in the car for more than ten minutes until she saw Chen Yuan drive over and enter the hotel first. Only then did she pick up her bag and go in.

Then he left through the back door of the hotel and took a taxi to the law firm where Fu Yao worked.

At the hotel's front entrance, Huang Guilan hid behind the green belt and clearly saw Chen Yuan and Yan Zhen entering the hotel one after the other. She immediately called Shen Que.

“Son, I saw it! It was Chen Yuan!” Huang Guilan said excitedly. “He and Jiang Yunong went into the hotel. I saw it with my own eyes!”

Shen Que's heart sank.

Sure enough!

Thinking about Chen Yuan's unusual attentiveness and care towards him these days, was it because he felt guilty for sleeping with his wife?

I treated him like a brother, but he took advantage of my inconvenience to cheat on me!

Shen Que was so angry he felt like vomiting blood!

He abruptly hung up the phone, his mind racing.

He needs to find a way to ruin the reputation of these shameless men and women, so they can never hold their heads up again!

Meanwhile, Yan Zhen arrived at the law firm and immediately heard a commotion coming from the reception desk.

"Your firm's lawyers beat me up like this, aren't you going to do anything about it?"

"A lawyer, you think you can assault someone without knowing it's illegal? Get Fu Yao out here to see me!"

"Otherwise, I'll make a scene here until you close down!"

Yan Zhen hadn't intended to pay any attention and was about to enter through the side door when she heard Fu Yao's name, and she paused in her steps.

She lowered her sunglasses a few centimeters and looked closely. The troublemaker was none other than Hu Dawei, whom she had beaten black and blue a few days ago!

He didn't give up, and even escalated his sneaky stalking into blatant harassment, taking it all to the firm.

Yan Zhen narrowed her eyes, about to go and chase him away, when her arm was grabbed and she was pulled into the office.

It's Fu Yao.

"Why are you here?" Fu Yao asked.

Yan Zhen didn't say that he was worried about her, so he came to check on her.

She changed the subject: "How long has Hu Dawei been making a scene?"

“It’s been three days.” Fu Yao said helplessly. “He not only caused a scene at the firm, but also went to my neighborhood and spread rumors that I was spending his money even though I wasn’t dating him, and demanded an explanation from me. My parents called the police and got rid of him.”
