Chapter 464 The Truth

Then Xiao Bing started the car. Xu Sheng felt nervous as he sat beside Xiao Bing. He was eager to find out the truth, but at the same time, he was also scared of it.

He was afraid that it was his money that Li Yan’er wanted, and she was only pretending to love him.

He recalled how apathetic this girl had been when she broke up with him this morning. He wondered if this was Li Yan’er’s true nature.

Xu Sheng said uneasily, “Where are we going?”

Xiao Bing smiled confidently, “Why? Are you afraid of the truth? Did you believe that she will never betray you?”

Xu Sheng took a deep breath and said, “I believe in her.”

“Good.” Xiao Bing smiled, “I like stubborn men like you.”

The car stopped in front of a hotel. Confused, Xu Sheng asked, “Why are we here?”

Xiao Bing smiled, “It’s a hotel. You can make a guess. Or you can just wait and you will see the truth you want.”

About ten minutes later, they saw two cars parking in front of the hotel. Several bodyguards alighted from the second car to open the door of the first car. Then out from it came a man and a woman. They were wrapped around each other, seeming to be very intimate. Xu Sheng opened his eyes wide. Though he could only see the back of that woman, Xu Sheng already knew who she was.

It was the same woman who used to be in his arms. The woman who took up all the space in his heart. He gave up everything for her, yet now she was in another man’s arms!

Li Yan’er was seemingly making out with Zhang Qiang. Xu Sheng saw them touching each other and kissing in front of the hotel.

Li Yan’er, who said that she decided to break up with Xu Sheng this morning, seemed so happy and dynamic at this moment.

Xu Sheng covered his face with his hands, then he raised his head, trying to hold back his tears.

Xiao Bing asked, “Do you want to go over and ask her why?”

“There’s no need.” Xu Sheng said in a hoarse voice, “If my guess is right, that man should be the young master of the Zhang Family. He is the rich man who was at the feast. Now I know why she broke up with me. I’m almost 50 and he is only 30. He is the heir of the most powerful family in Jingdu, while I’m merely one of the successful businessmen in Jiang City. She has only known him for a week, yet she dumped me so soon… Why should I go there now? To humiliate myself?”

“You really know how to let go. I admire that. How do you feel about that?”

Xu Sheng wiped his tears and sighed, “I hurt my wife and daughter for this woman… Now I know that I’m the biggest fool in this world. I failed them. I’m willing to file for divorce still, and give them most of my assets.”

Xiao Bing asked, “Now do you still want to go ahead with the divorce?”

Xiao Bing gave a bitter smile, “If I don’t go ahead with the divorce, I will feel guilty when I am with them. I wanted a divorce before because I was selfish and foolish enough to abandon my family for her. Now it’s because I want to be generous for once. I can’t just say sorry and pretend it did not happen. I deserve to be punished.”

Xiao Bing asked, “If she comes back to you again, will you still want to be with her?”

“No.” Xu Sheng shook his head and sighed, “You planned this?”

Xiao Bing smiled, “What do you think?”

Xu Sheng sighed, “You’re my daughter’s friend. You asked that man to put on this show. Now since I broke up with Li Yan’er, I suppose that young master will soon dump her.”

Xiao Bing guffawed, “Uncle Xu, you are quite smart. How can you let Li Yan’er fool you?”

Xu Sheng frowned. He seemed to have many regrets. “Perhaps… Perhaps she just found the crack in my heart and opened it wide. I’m a successful businessman and men like me often have mistresses. But before Li Yan’er showed up, I was with my wife and daughter. Those days were good. I thought I was a good man, though I’m not perfect. Every time I see a beautiful girl in another man’s arms, I would tell myself that I should stick to my morals. But am I not jealous of them at all? Perhaps I just did not realize it…”

Xiao Bing grinned, “It’s understandable. Every man likes young and pretty girls.”

Xu Sheng sighed, “It takes two to tear a family apart. I did not realize that I envied those men. But when Li Yan’er appeared and said that she loved me, I fell in love instantly. I knew it was not right. But I made up excuses. She loved me and I loved her. It was love… That excuse gave me the courage to commit adultery and agree to divorce my wife…”

Xu Sheng said sorrowfully, “It’s not Li Yan’er who has problems. She might be playing with my love, but I am the one who ruined the relationship between myself and my wife. There’s no difference between us. Please drive me home… Thank you.”

Xiao Bing cast a glance at the door of the hotel and said, “You still can’t let her go, right? Because you don’t even dare to look at them. You fear that you will feel heart-broken.”

“We all have hearts.” Xu Sheng managed a wry smile, “Although the relationship is fragile like a piece of paper, I loved her. Otherwise would I have given up everything for her?”

Xiao Bing nodded and drove him to his community. Xu Sheng sighed, “It seems that you do know my daughter very well. You even know where my house is.”

Xiao Bing asked, “How do you feel now?”

“I regret being with her. But I don’t hate her. Instead, I wish for her to have a happy life.. Please don’t harm her, if it’s possible.

Xiao Bing said, “Don’t worry. You have nothing to do with this anymore. That’s all we can do, to show you who she really is. I hope you won’t hate us. Even if we had not come up with this plan, she would have betrayed you sooner or later, because she merely loved your money.”

“I know.” Xu Sheng got out of the car and sighed, “I’m going home. No matter what, I will confess this to my family… I’m ready for the punishment. I feel so ashamed of myself. But I’m a man. I have to take these responsibilities.”

Xiao Bing smiled, “I am starting to admire you. Now go, Uncle Xu.”

Then Xiao Bing drove to Yezi’s company. Now he felt at ease, since this matter was settled.

Xiao Bing thought that Xu Sheng would be heartbroken for a period of time, but this man would never go with Li Yan’er again. Maybe he would cheat on his wife again, if this had been any normal adulterous affair. But he had invested so much in this relationship. Xiao Bing believed that it was a lesson that Xu Sheng would remember for the rest of his life.

Now, Xiao Bing needed to teach that arrogant man in City Jinghai a lesson. Though his family was very powerful, Xiao Bing could still do that.

Xiao Bing walked to Yezi’s office. All of the staff here knew that he was the board leader’s man, so they greeted him respectfully in order to leave a good impression. Xiao Bing was not haughty. He greeted them back, warmly.

When Xiao Bing opened the door of her office, he found Yezi talking to the managers of some departments. He sat down and listened to them. The managers were giving her reports about their work. According to what they said, the things that happened recently had negative influences on the company. But the situation was reversed now, and their stock price was rising. It seemed that it was hard to bring down big companies like this.

Of course, the most important thing now was that the company proved itself to be responsible for those workers who were injured. If people thought the company was an uncaring type, the losses would be unimaginable.

After the managers left, Yezi put away the files and stood up. She stood up and smiled, “Come on, let’s hang out.”

Xiao Bing grinned, “Let’s go!”
