Chapter 154

Upon hearing her husband’s words, Bai Jing asked, “What?”

“You should know what’s affecting our relationship, but you’re ignoring it and choosing to do other things that I think are insignificant.”

“I know what you’re referring to, but I’ve already explained it to you,” Bai Jing said. “I know you want me to admit that I was drugged or raped during your kidnapping, but that never happened. As for the pubic hair and underwear you received, I don’t know anything about them either. I told you that the underwear was long gone, but you didn’t believe me. You even thought I took the underwear to Lijiang and then the kidnappers sent it to you. Honey, the truth you want to know doesn’t exist, so I hope you can forget about those things and let our relationship get back on track.”

“I know you know the kidnappers, which is the main reason why you would rather call Li Fulong than call the police.”

“No,” Bai Jing said, “I didn’t call the police because I didn’t want you to know that I had been kidnapped, because I didn’t want you to overthink things. As for asking Li Fulong to rescue me, I’ve already explained that to you. Although I’m from Lijiang, I don’t have many friends here. Plus, I knew that I was definitely being held captive in a relatively remote place, and Li Fulong had been looking for me those past two days, so I knew that if I asked him to rescue me, he would definitely be there immediately.”

“Then why don’t you call He Yijuan?”

“You know her?”

“She was your former boss.”

“That’s right,” Bai Jing said. “I’ve had very little contact with her since I left her travel agency, so I haven’t called her. Actually, there’s another reason. I know Li Fulong is involved in organized crime, so he would never call the police. If I called Sister Juan or someone else, they would definitely call the police and have them come to rescue me.”

Ultimately, you just don’t want to call the police.

“Because I don’t want you to know I’ve been kidnapped.”

“If it’s just kidnapping, what’s wrong with me finding out?”

“You would think I’ve been insulted.”

“I really don’t understand,” Han An, who was only wearing his underwear, asked after sitting down in the chair, “Why would Xu Xiaoru help you?”

“She cheated on me, so it’s normal for her to help me.”

“Just because she cheated on her husband, does that mean she’d be willing to sleep with any man?”

“She initially disagreed, but she only agreed after I begged her repeatedly,” Bai Jing paused, then added, “Actually, I don’t think she really wanted to help me; she was just afraid I would expose her affair. Since I knew she had been cheating for a long time, she definitely wanted to maintain a good relationship with me.”

“Didn’t you tell her that you’d expose her if she didn’t help you?”

“without.”

“If she doesn’t help you, would you say the same thing?”

“Honey, I don’t want to talk about things that will never happen.”

“Do you know that Zhou Tao cheated on you first?”

“I know, Xiaoru told me a long time ago,” Bai Jing said, her expression somewhat unnatural. “She said that it was because her husband Zhou Tao cheated on her first that she had an affair with her boss.”

“Then why didn’t you tell me that Zhou Tao cheated on me first?”

“If I say it, but Zhou Tao doesn’t admit it, then you’ll think I’m smearing him to protect Xiaoru.”

“That couple is hilarious, they’ve both cheated on each other.”

“Xiaoru was angered by Zhou Tao.”

“So you think Xiaoru did nothing wrong by cheating, and that Zhou Tao is the one who made a mistake?”

“Both of them are at fault. Xiaoru shouldn’t have cheated on Zhou Tao because of him.”

For some reason, Han An always felt that his wife was talking about him.

After all, his affair with Xu Yina was because his wife had cheated on him first.

Of course, if Xu Yina hadn’t seduced him that night, he probably would have been able to hold his ground.

Not wanting to continue the conversation with his wife, Han An stood up.

After turning off the bedside lamp, Han An finally crawled into bed.

He didn’t want his wife to snuggle up to him like a cat, but she did it anyway.

He tried to push his wife away, but she didn’t move.

“Honey, tomorrow is Saturday.”

“I know.”

“I have to start work on Monday, so I think we should take advantage of this weekend to go out and have some fun,” Bai Jing said. “Tomorrow and the day after are the first weekend after the National Day holiday, so I don’t think there will be many tourists at major tourist attractions, so we can go to any of them.”

“Is it a two-day weekend?”

“right.”

“Since it’s a two-day weekend, there’s no need to go on a trip tomorrow.”

“We’ll just travel within the province.”

Because we need to go to Nuclear Gene to pick up the identification report tomorrow, Han An said, “I don’t really want to go out, so if you want to go out, you can take your son with you.”

“What if something happens to us?”

“If you’re afraid of something happening, then stay home.”

“Honey, you’re still angry with me.”

“You know perfectly well what I want to know, but you just won’t tell me.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s that you don’t believe me.”

“Let’s not continue this topic, I’m afraid we’ll start arguing again.”

Because of her husband’s words, Bai Jing didn’t say anything more.

A few minutes later, the couple sighed at the same time.

At the same time, at Zhou Tao and Xu Xiaoru’s residence.

Zhou Tao was sitting on the sofa playing on her phone, while Xu Xiaoru was taking a shower.

As for their one-year-old daughter, since both of them had to work during the day, she was always taken care of by her mother-in-law who lived in the countryside. Their only responsibility was to send money back home every month.

So they have quite a bit of freedom in their lives.

The day before yesterday afternoon, Zhou Tao received a call from Han An, who questioned Zhou Tao about whether he had slept with Su Keke.

Zhou Tao naturally believed that his wife had told Xu Xiaoru about this.

That’s why Zhou Tao has been trying to talk to his wife about this for the past two days.

Of course, most importantly, Zhou Tao also wanted to know if his wife was really having an affair with his boss.

Hearing the noise and seeing his wife come out of the bathroom, Zhou Tao put down his phone and said, “Wife, I want to talk to you.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Come here.”

Because of her husband’s words, Xu Xiaoru, still wrapped in her bathrobe, went over.

Sitting next to her husband, Xu Xiaoru asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

Seeing that his wife seemed a bit cold, Zhou Tao coughed and asked, “Did you talk to Bai Jing’s husband about anything the day before yesterday?”

Are you ready to tell me the truth?

“Did Su Keke tell you?”

“That’s right,” Xu Xiaoru said coldly. “If she hadn’t said that you took advantage of me while I was drunk, I probably would have been kept in the dark for the rest of my life. Because you’re a teacher, I always thought you were the kind of man of good character. Otherwise, I would never have brought such a beautiful female colleague home for dinner and drinks. But you, you actually did that kind of thing!”

“It’s mainly because I drank too much alcohol.”

“I see absolutely no remorse in you.”

“You cheated on me too, didn’t you?”
