Chapter 240 Don't believe it

"I can't believe it!"

It was evident that there was disbelief in Ying Sheng's voice as she saw in horror what had happened in the video.

"I look up to her. I look up to her, Liam!"

Liam allowed her to vent out her frustrations. He put his coat over Ying Sheng since it was already cold this evening. She only wore her sleeveless dress, and it would surely make her feel cold.

The two had safely arrived in front of Liam's car. He pressed the button of his keys to unlock the doors, rushing over the passenger's seat to open the door for Ying Sheng.

Ying Sheng entered and sat, Liam, buckling the seatbelt for her as she continued to vent.

"I did not expect her to be this scandalous! I look up to her as my idol, and I worked for her!"

"Now, now," Liam said, entering the driver's seat then buckled his seatbelt. "We don't know if that's even true," he added, Ying Sheng, looking at him as he started to drive off from the parking lot.

"You think it's not real?"

Liam shrugged, "It could be real, or it could not be real. You know, people could edit things well nowadays."

Hearing this, Ying Sheng nodded slowly as what Liam said could be true.

"You have a point," she said, understanding his point. "Then maybe I should have to wait for her say in this than judge, right?"

"Yes," Liam said, "Wait for the explanation. Honestly, I think this could be a set-up, but I could be wrong."

"Oh..."

Ying Sheng then started to calm down. With Liam saying his opinions about the matter, Ying Sheng thought that what Liam said was reasonable and could be true.

A smile then crept on her face as she leaned to her side, planting a kiss on Liam's cheek, slightly surprising him.

"You indeed make sense, Liam. I need you in my life to help me think properly," she teased, a flush of red appearing on Liam's cheek.

"O-oh..."

He coughed, clearing his throat as Ying Sheng laughed on her seat, liking his reaction.

Not expecting what he did, the moment the color red flashed on the traffic light, Liam leaned to her side, surprising her as he planted a kiss on her lips for a few seconds.

Ying Sheng blinked her eyes a few times, and the moment Liam parted away from her, a chuckle came from him, followed by a wink as he attempted to tease Ying Sheng.

"You don't need to tell me that you need me in your life. I'm already here."

Ying Sheng scoffed, playfully rolling her eyes at him as Liam started driving again the moment the traffic light showed the color green.

She looked out her window, a sweet smile appearing on her face as she tried her best to stifle her swoon, her heart feeling giddy with Liam's unexpected flirtatious mood and attempt.

"Don't be so cheeky, Liam," she said teasingly, making Liam laugh as he continued driving to a restaurant for them to eat dinner.

"Then don't be so naughty, Ying Sheng."

The moment Wang Lu walked away, he immediately went straight home. He then walked directly to his house's wine cellar to get himself a bottle of alcohol.

In just half an hour, he had half-consumed the wine that he got. He was tipsy as he continued drinking the alcohol, not caring that he has to go back to the city to go back to work.

With that in mind, Wang Lu was still in the right mind to call his secretary. He clicked his secretary's contact, and in the third ring, had already picked up Wang Lu's call.

"Yes, Mr. Wang Lu?" the person at the other end of the call greeted him.

"Cancel my schedule... for the next day--tomorrow," he said, his voice slurring over his words as he hiccuped in between words. "I'm drunk. I can't go to work as I'm in another city."

"O-okay," his secretary said at the other end of the call. Wang Lu did not need to tell the details, but he still did. "I'll cancel the schedule for the next day and tell them that you're feeling under the weather."

"Ehe," Wang Lu laughed, his secretary scratching the back of his head as he listened to him. "Good boy! I'll end the call now. Bye-bye!"

And so he did end the call. The moment he did, he threw the phone at the side of the couch as he plopped on it, the bottle of alcohol held by his left hand.

He stared blankly at his living room's ceiling, remembering what had happened in the past with the video shown to them.

At the same time, he also remembered what had happened earlier. He thought that he already forgot what happened five years ago, but with the video played again, he felt his anger and hate as if it were yesterday.

"Nnngh..."

Groaning, Wang Lu put his hand over his head. With his hand searching for his phone, he successfully found it, making him look for Yan Mei's contact once more.

"My Feng Mei" was still her name inside his phonebook. His eyes reflected sadness and pain as he looked at his ex-wife's name, but his anger towards her still lingered in her heart.

"How could you do this to me, Feng Mei," he mumbled, talking to himself, "How could you cheat on me with my best friend? I love you, but you betrayed me."

Without him even realizing he pressed Yan Mei's number and proceeded to call her. But when he put his phone against his ear, he heard that the caller was unavailable, indicating that his call could not connect.

Wang Lu furrowed his brows. With that happening, it was like he suddenly sobered up, making him abruptly sit up as he stared at his phone.

"Why can't I connect my call? Is she safe? Did something happen?"

With that in mind, paranoia had started hunting him. He then sat up from his seat as he started calling his secretary again, more normal now than how he was moments ago.

"Do everything you can to search for that man's whereabouts. Understood?"

With the order given to his secretary, Wang Lu did not wait for his reply before he ended the call. He then sat back on his chair slowly, as he felt nervous about Yan Mei and her safety.
