Chapter 871 - Prey

Chapter 871 - Prey

Translator: Thyaeria

Lu Yunchuan’s wife was named Qu Wanwan. Her beauty couldn’t be described with words. It was undoubted that she was a Bella when she was in school. Lu Yunchuan could be considered a genius when it came to media, but he had an ordinary appearance. He could even be described as ‘ugly.’ So it was surprising that Lu Yunchuan had such a beautiful wife.

Then again, there was nothing that couldn’t be achieved as long as you have money in this society, regardless of your age and appearance.

On the other hand, Su Mu wasn’t particularly stunning. So if Lu Yunchuan and Qu Wanwan stood together, he would naturally feel inferior.

Su Mu left the room with her face ashen. Su Tao sighed inwardly when he saw this scene. His interaction with Su Mu wasn’t long, but he could feel that she had a good character.

When Su Tao left the room, he could hear Qu Wanwan and Lu Yunchuan quarreling in the room. Shortly after, Qu Wanwan left the room coldly, casting a cold glance at Su Mu when she passed by.

Su Tao and Ni Jingqiu exchanged a glance. They had a feeling that Su Mu must be the reason for the fight between Qu Wanwan and Lu Yunchuan.

Biting her lips, Su Mu returned to the room. Entering the door and looking at Lu Yunchuan’s back, Su Mu spoke out softly, “I’m sorry. Did I cause the two of you to be upset?”

Lu Yunchuan never expected that Su Mu would return. Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly, “It has nothing to do with you. Don’t blame yourself.”

“Why don’t I talk to her? We’re just ordinary colleagues.” Su Mu replied.

“There’s no need for that. My conflict with her has nothing to do with you...” Lu Yunchuan sighed.

Su Mu knew that it must have something to do with her when Qu Wanwan glanced at her earlier. She immediately ran out of the room and chased after Qu Wanwan.

Seeing Su Mu charging out of the room, Ni Jingqiu pulled Su Tao, “Let’s follow up. I’m afraid that there might be an incident.”

Su Tao never imagined that he would be dragged into a love triangle. Feeling a little helpless and curious, he followed behind Ni Jingqiu.

When Su Mu came out of the hospital, she saw Qu Wanwan, who was about to get into a red Tesla. She immediately called out, “Big sister, please wait!”

Qu Wanwan got into the car and plugged the seat belt. She winded down the window and looked at Su Mu coldly, “What is it?”

As Su Mu ran too quickly, she was out of breath. It took a great effort for her to calm down. She said, “Big sister, let me explain to you. Brother Yunchuan and I are just ordinary colleagues. Please don’t misunderstand us.”

Putting on her sunglasses, Qu Wanwan glanced at Su Mu, “I don’t mind Lu Yunchuan’s abnormal relationship with you. I have just given him a divorce agreement. In short, we’re getting a divorce, so it should be a piece of good news for you. Now that Lu Yunchuan is single, you can continue to pursue him if you’re interested.”

Su Mu never imagined that things would develop in this manner. She immediately spoke out anxiously, “Please calm down. The two of you have only been married for a month, so how can the two of you get a divorce so quickly?”

“Is it weird? There are people who get a divorce on the day of marriage.” Qu Wanwan revealed a disdainful smile. “Oh, right. That nothing is going on between us anymore. His relatives are out of town, and you can take care of him during this period. You should thank me for giving you this opportunity to pursue him.”

Su Mu never imagined that Qu Wanwan would say those words. She was shocked, with questions revolving in her head.

Is Lu Yunchuan really going to get a divorce? Is that true?

She wasn’t thinking for herself, but her first thought was how pitiful Lu Yunchuan was. Back then, Lu Yunchuan racked his brain to pursue Qu Wanwan, spending a lot of effort in the process.

Many people think that Lu Yunchuan was lucky to get Qu Wanwan to marry him, but Su Mu knew that no women could resist Lu Yunchuan’s courtship.

When Su Mu and Ni Jingqiu walked out, Qu Wanwan was already driving away in her Tesla. Looking at Su Mu, Ni Jingqiu sighed, “What’s the matter? Did she say something?”

“Nothing. She said that she has no feelings for Brother Yunchuan, and they’re getting a divorce.” Su Mu smiled bitterly, shaking her head.

Ni Jingqiu also never expected this result and sighed, “Didn’t they just get married recently?”

With concern in her eyes, Su Mu replied, “I’m afraid that it won’t be easy for Brother Yunchuan to take this in.”

“I’ll give you a few days off. Take good care of him well.” Ni Jingqiu patted on Su Mu’s shoulders.

Su Mu’s face turned red. She originally wanted to ask for leave, but she had no idea how to come out with it. She never expected Ni Jingqiu to have such a high EQ to take the initiative to put her on leave. Lowering her head, she replied, “I will take good care of him.”

Qu Wanwan drove her electric Tesla to a villa on the outskirts. This villa might be located in a slightly remote area, but it was worth over ¥10,000,000 because it was still within Beijing’s range. When she parked the car and opened the door, a woman in her fifties walked over and asked, “How is it? Is he willing to divorce?”

“Mom, don’t push me all the time, okay? I’m tired too!” Qu Wanwan looked at the woman impatiently.

Qu Wanwan’s mother, Qing Lin, sighed unhappily. When Qu Wanwan sat on the couch, she brewed a cup of tea for her daughter. She spoke out, “You can wait, but the world can’t. Everything’s changing every single second. Just end it before it turns out into a mess so that we can go with another one.”

“In the past, we can only get ¥400,000 out of every single one. You took more than ¥10,000,000 from him this time. So what’s the matter if we’re slightly later?” Qu Wanwan sighed. The tea was bitter, which she knitted her brows together.

“That’s because he’s stupid. This is only a game. How much more money do you think he has? What do you think about pushing him once more?”

“I originally wanted to force him a little and get him to divorce. But it was out of my expectation that he would commit suicide. Fortunately, he’s fine. Otherwise, it’ll be bad for us. We’re only here for his money, not his life.” Qu Wanwan sighed.

“He really committed suicide? Why do I feel that he’s trying to get your sympathy?” Ding Lin curiously asked.

“Mom, I have a bad premonition about this. Just let it go for now. I’ll get out once he calms down. I’m afraid that something will happen if I force him too hard now.” Qu Wanwan shook her head bitterly.

Shaking her head, Ding Lin replied, “No, you must get a divorce by this month. If he insists, then reveal some of his secrets and see if he’s afraid.”

Seeing that her mom was so firm about it, Qu Wanwan sighed helplessly and stood up, “I’ll take a shower. When I went to see him in the hospital earlier, it felt uncomfortable when he held onto my hands.”

“Why didn’t you feel that when the two of you got married?” Ding Lin smiled.

“Because his house, car, and money aren’t under my name yet, so I naturally have to get on his good side.” Qu Wanwan smiled.

Qu Wanwan went up and got into the bath.

On the other hand, Ding Lin took a cigarette and lit it. She dialed a number and smiled, “Mr. Tang, how are you? Do you have any good recommendations recently?”

“How long has it been? Why are you dissatisfied again?” Mr. Tang got a headache when he heard Ding Lin’s voice.

“That’s because my daughter has good conditions, is gorgeous, lively, and has a good career. How many men are worthy of her?” Ding Lin helplessly sighed.

“I have already sent you all the outstanding men in the past few years. Didn’t you say that this candidate isn’t bad and even intend to get married?” Mr. Tang helplessly asked.

He still had no idea that Qu Wanwan had already gotten married to Lu Yunchuan. This matter concerned a dating website, so it must naturally be kept hidden.

“Alas... we’re your website’s VIP. You guys promised at the beginning that we could get the best candidate once we pay the membership fees.” Ding Lin feigned to be angry.

“That’s for sure. We’re naturally responsible for finding a more suitable candidate for you since you’re not satisfied with the previous candidate.” Mr. Tang was annoyed by Ding Lin. However, he revealed a fawning smile, “I’ll send you the information to your account half an hour from now. You will be able to see it when you log-in.”

“Do you know my daughter’s criteria?” Ding Lin smiled.

“I do. She’s looking for men who grew up in the countryside and gained a foothold in the city through hard work. Best if they’re in science and engineering with simple relationship experience.” Mr. Tang smiled.

After the call, Ding Lin brewed a cup of coffee and turned on her laptop. She logged into the website, and sure enough, there were a bunch of highly eligible bachelors. When she saw Qu Wanwan come down in her loose nightgowns, Ding Lin waved her hand, “Wanwan, come and take a look. Mr. Tang sent a bunch of photos over.”

Walking over, Qiu Wanwan took a rough glance and smiled, “They’re prey either way. So you can pick for me.”

“Don’t put it so unsightly. They will be having intimate contact with you, so won’t you feel disgusted if I pick someone ugly?” Ding Lin smiled.

“I’m just treating this as a work.” Qu Wanwan smiled. “I’ll just close my eyes and switch off the lights. How will I know if it will be a man or beast lying on top of me?”

Ding Lin was stunned. She knew that her daughter held some resentment, which she comforted, “Let’s take a long break after the next one.”

Qu Wanwan did not bother about her mother. She came to the courtyard and looked at the mess. She sighed inwardly. Lu Yunchuan had been doing this normally, and now, she had to find a nanny for that?
