Chapter 54: Nostalgia, Enter the Village

Li Zecheng said bitterly, “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll buy it for you.”

Jo Ann smiled through her tears.

Li Zecheng thought that this storm had finally passed. Unexpectedly, Qiao An kept asking, “Hubby, are you sure Wei Xin returned all her assets?”

Li Zecheng’s heart tightened and he suddenly flew into a rage. “Qiao An, what else do you want? You can’t possibly ask her to cough up the movie tickets and flowers, right? If you don’t find it embarrassing, I do.”

Qiao An looked at the guilty Li Zecheng and sneered.

Did he take her for a fool? He wanted to send her away with just a few bags? Did he really think she was easy to bully?

“Hubby, I hope you’d better be honest with me. Otherwise, if I investigate it myself, you won’t be able to keep your face.” After saying that, Qiao An turned around and left.

She stepped over Wei Xin’s bag.

Li Zecheng’s face turned green.

Qiao An discarded Wei Xin’s precious bags.

Qiao An decided to investigate Li Zecheng’s bank transfer and obtain the proof of his transfer to Wei Xin. With this evidence, not only could she get Wei Xin to return her assets, but she could also dampen Li Zecheng’s spirit.

However, he had never told her his phone password. She had to find a way to crack it.

“Hubby!”

Qiao An looked at the empty house. When she broke down a few days ago, she had smashed many lovey-dovey ornaments in the house.

Qiao An suggested, “Draw a rich peony. I’ll hang it up.”

Li Zecheng only felt that the meaning of the peony flower was good. Without thinking, he readily agreed. “Okay.”

Qiao An immediately laid out a pen and paper for him. Li Zecheng’s Chinese painting had been quite good since elementary school.

After Li Zecheng finished painting, Qiao An happily pasted it on the wall of the bathroom. At the same time, she hid the needle camera she had bought in the hair clip accessory and clipped the decorative hair clip on the frame.

Qiao An continued to show off in his circle of friends. “Husband’s painting of peonies. Do you all know what it means?”

Hence, the people below began to comment, “I know, I know. It means that she’s rich.”

“Qiao Qiao, you can’t be too greedy. You’re already a rich woman now. Why are you still asking for wealth? Just ask for a lover.”

At this moment, someone finally made a refreshing comment. “It means to declare sovereignty. Peony is the national flower. In ancient times, it meant the empress.”

“Young Master Li doesn’t usually show off his love. Once he does, it is extraordinary. I’m impressed.”

Qiao An held her phone and bragged to Li Zecheng, “Hubby, look at how our friends are praising our relationship. I think it won’t be long before your image changes. At that time, Grandpa will definitely let you enter the board of directors again.”

How could Li Zecheng know Qiao An’s sinister thoughts? He thought that she was sincerely good to him, so he wasn’t suspicious of her public display of affection.

Unexpectedly, Wei Xin could not sit still.

She recognized this peony painting as Li Zecheng’s work. Li Zecheng had actually given Qiao An a peony flower, and the peony flower had that layer of meaning. Wei Xin could no longer hold it in.

She sent a message to Li Zecheng and took a screenshot of Li Zecheng’s peony flowers. She questioned, “Brother Zecheng, why did you give her the peony flowers? What am I to you?”

Li Zecheng saw Wei Xin’s message and was afraid that Qiao An would find out. He took his phone and entered the bathroom guiltily.

Qiao An slowly turned on her phone and smiled when she saw Li Zecheng’s password.

In the bathroom, Li Zecheng explained to Wei Xin, “Qiao An is pregnant. Grandpa rewarded her with 5% of the shares. I have to coax her now. She can only transfer the shares to me when she’s happy. Don’t worry, when I get the shares, I’ll divorce her. I can’t afford a vicious beauty like her.”

“Then are you still sleeping with her tonight? Brother Li Zecheng, don’t sleep with her, okay? I’m really afraid that you’ll fall in love with her if you touch her too many times,” Wei Xin said.

“When she was beautiful in the past, I didn’t even touch her many times. Moreover, she has become a paper doll now. She doesn’t have any beauty at all. I want to vomit just by looking at her. How can I touch her?”

Wei Xin said nervously, “I keep feeling that she’s looking for you to get back together this time because she has ill intentions.”

Li Zecheng said, “Why should I be afraid of her? By the way, she already suspects that we haven’t spat out our huge assets. During this period of time, you have to keep a low profile and spend less money. Don’t let her catch us red-handed.”

“Got it,” Wei Xin said.

Qiao An sat on the sofa, her gaze fixed on the ice water on the coffee table. A poisonous smile flashed across her eyes. Just now, she had sprinkled some sleeping powder in it.

After Li Zecheng came out, he sat beside Qiao An very naturally and placed a hand on her shoulder affectionately. “Honey, it’s getting late. Let’s rest.”

Qiao An picked up the ice water and handed it to Li Zecheng. “Hubby, have a glass of water before bed. You’ll be healthier.”

Li Zecheng picked up the cup and hesitated to drink.

Qiao An suddenly picked up the empty cup beside her and handed it to Li Zecheng. She said coquettishly, “Hubby, I’m a little thirsty. Pour me some.”

Li Zecheng poured her half a glass of water.

Qiao An picked it up and took a long sip.

Li Zecheng completely dispelled his worries and picked up the glass of water to drink in big gulps.

A cold glint flashed across Qiao An’s eyes. Sleeping pills had long lost their effect on the physically and mentally exhausted Qiao An, but they could make him sleep to death.

Qiao An fell asleep almost immediately after lying on the bed. Li Zecheng called her a few times, but Qiao An didn’t answer. Li Zecheng smiled gently. It seemed that he was overthinking.

Soon, he couldn’t resist the effects of the medicine and fell asleep.

When he started snoring, Qiao An suddenly opened his eyes.

In order to test if Li Zecheng was asleep, she shook him hard. “Hubby, can you get me a glass of water? I’m thirsty.”

Li Zecheng did not react at all.

Qiao An sat up and picked up Li Zecheng’s phone on the bedside table. Then, she quickly entered the password and easily unlocked the phone.

After turning on her phone, Qiao An slowly checked Li Zecheng’s bank transfer records. She had recorded all the records since they got married.

She discovered that Li Zecheng’s recent output of tens of millions was marked with the house payment.

Thinking that Li Ze already had two houses and was not qualified to buy a house, this house must have been bought for someone else, and Wei Xin was the most likely.

Qiao An kept the evidence.

Of course, there were also the jewelry, bags, clothes, and cosmetics that Li Zecheng had bought, especially the hotel records, Valentine’s Day red packets, and Qiao An took screenshots of them.

Then, Qiao An went to the dating app and found Wei Xin. She restored her chat record with Li Zecheng.

She also took photos of them one by one.

In the end, she imitated Li Zecheng’s tone and sent a message to Wei Xin. “Baby, meet me in Room 520 of the Li Corporation Hotel tomorrow.”

Wei Xin replied almost instantly, “Brother Zecheng, do you want it?”

Qiao An was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. What she wanted was not her body. She wanted her to vomit out all the assets that she had scraped away from Li Zecheng over the past two years.

Tomorrow, she would definitely make Wei Xin kneel and beg for mercy.
