Chapter 113: Killing and Attacking the Heart?
TL: YYang
Ten minutes later, after the exercise was over, Lin Yuchang gazed hazily at Shen Yuan sitting on the edge of the bed. From this angle, she could only see his sharp-featured profile and his lean back.
After five years of marriage to Zeng Xianyong, the passion was long gone, leaving only the trivialities of daily life, the cost of living, and the heartache of his philandering.
Before meeting this young stud, Shen Yuan, she had thought her future life would be as bleak as the past five years.
But now, Lin Yuchang had rediscovered the passion of her youth.
Actually, a life like this wasn’t bad at all!
At this thought, the beautiful young madam’s actions became restless again, her fingers gently scratching Shen Yuan’s back.
Shen Yuan turned around and looked at this beautiful young madam, who was now buffed with a double-layer bonus. He couldn’t resist and gave her a few more small goals.
Forty minutes later, Shen Yuan, the air conditioner repairman, quietly left Lin Yuchang’s home under the cover of night while Zeng Xianyong was fast asleep. He then caught a Didi at the community entrance and headed to the Junyue.
After nearly a week of working out, his weight had increased to 73.2KG, and his body fat was currently at 18.6%. He still had 2KG to go to complete his fitness task, and his body fat needed to be reduced to below 15%.
So he still needed to work hard.
An Eddie Peng physique, just thinking about it was beautiful!
The next morning at 7:30, Zeng Xianyong woke up in a daze, his head feeling dizzy. He couldn’t help but complain, “Damn it, when will the bars start selling real alcohol!”
He rubbed his temples and went to the living room. Lin Yuchang was currently in the kitchen making breakfast. The smell of congee and pancakes filled the entire room, and Zeng Xianyong’s mood instantly improved.
A red flag at home that never falls, and colorful flags fluttering outside.
This is how life should be!
He walked into the kitchen and noticed that Lin Yuchang seemed to have rested well. Her complexion was rosy, and a faint smile hung on her lips.
But something wasn’t quite right…
Zeng Xianyong frowned. She wasn’t usually like this.
“Did you sleep well yesterday?”
Zeng Xianyong asked suspiciously.
Lin Yuchang didn’t know that Zeng Xianyong had silently appeared behind her and was startled.
Then she quickly recovered and nodded. “Pretty well.”
The scene from yesterday still made her heart palpitate. She felt a bit guilty now and unnaturally tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
Zeng Xianyong was naturally a suspicious person, and he often cheated outside. As an experienced person, he could tell that Lin Yuchang was clearly hiding something.
He pretended to be nonchalant and chatted with Lin Yuchang for a few sentences, then, while she was making breakfast, he slipped into her bedroom.
First, he checked the trash can and found no little umbrellas. Then he carefully examined the bedsheets and quilt but saw no short male hairs.
Finally, he even sniffed with his dog-like nose but didn’t smell any strangers.
‘Could it be that I was overthinking things?’
Zeng Xianyong slapped his head. It must be because he drank too much fake alcohol last night and was overthinking again.
After thinking it over, Zeng Xianyong could only come to this conclusion, as it had happened before.
“Looks like I need to pay more attention to home as well. Can’t be biased,” Zeng Xianyong sighed softly and walked out of the bedroom to wash up.
He had no idea that although Lin Yuchang’s acting skills were average, her cleanup work was impeccable. She had woken up at 6 AM to tidy up the room, opened the windows for ventilation, changed the bedsheets and quilt cover, and even cleaned the floor and trash can.
After doing all this, she checked everything several times to make sure there were no problems before starting to make breakfast.
During breakfast, Zeng Xianyong asked, “Yuchang, I remember you told me last time that the air conditioner in your bedroom was broken?”
“Yes.”
“Did you get someone to fix it?”
“It’s already fixed.”
Lin Yuchang replied while taking a small sip of congee.
“That’s good.”
Zeng Xianyong nodded. Then he suddenly remembered something. “I think I heard the front door open in my sleep last night. Did you open the front door last night?”
“No, you must have misheard.”
“I was sleeping quite soundly.”
Lin Yuchang replied, pretending to be nonchalant.
Zeng Xianyong nodded thoughtfully. “Then I must have misheard…”
Lin Yuchang looked at Zeng Xianyong’s expression and felt a secret thrill.
‘Actually, the person who went out the door was the air conditioner repairman, and not only that…’
At the same time, at 90 Degrees Cafe.
“Yingying, did you know? My ex-boyfriend is successful now. I’m so pissed off!”
Zhou Wanting sat by the window chatting with her best friend, Li Ying, her expression full of displeasure.
“Which ex-boyfriend?”
Li Ying asked, confused.
“Shen Yuan, of course. As if I have many ex-boyfriends.”
Li Ying said a faint “oh.” “I thought you were talking about Hou Jun.”
At the mention of Hou Jun, Zhou Wanting became even more annoyed. “Don’t talk about him. It was fine when we first got together, but later he wouldn’t even buy me a bag. He earns quite a lot, but he’s so stingy.”
“How did Shen Yuan get successful? Didn’t he sell his car after his family went bankrupt?”
“You have no idea. Ever since he left me, he’s been flying high. He spent 3 million to buy a house for a woman, and he also bought a Porsche 911 for a female fitness coach, which cost over 2 million!”
Zhou Wanting was indignant.
“That exaggerated?”
Li Ying’s mouth dropped open in surprise. That was 5 million in total. She couldn’t help but ask, “How do you know all this?”
“That female coach is my personal trainer. She told me. She even posted on her Moments when she bought the Porsche.”
“She quit her job after that. I guess she doesn’t need to work anymore after latching onto Shen Yuan.”
“Aiya, why am I so unlucky!”
Zhou Wanting was now full of regret. If she had broken up with Shen Yuan a little later, none of this would have happened!
Ever since she found out that Shen Yuan spent so much money on women, Zhou Wanting now found men with million-yuan annual salaries completely uninteresting.
Shen Yuan spent millions at a time!
Even a millionaire couldn’t compare to him. He must be worth at least a hundred million now.
“Uh… that’s indeed very rich.”
Reality wasn’t like Kuaiyin, where everyone drove a Maybach. Forget a hundred-million-yuan net worth, even a man with a ten-million-yuan net worth was one in ten thousand.
Li Ying was also dating someone now, with an annual salary of only two hundred thousand. But an annual salary of 200,000 was considered quite good in a city like Star City.
After all, most people in Star City earned a few thousand a month.
“So, you see, his success now just proves my poor judgment, doesn’t it?”
“To actually dump him and get together with Hou Jun?”
“I suspect my brain was really broken at that time!”
Zhou Wanting was now in extreme agony. Ever since she found out about Shen Yuan’s success, she couldn’t even sleep well.
This wasn’t like missing a 5-million-yuan lottery ticket; it was like missing a 100-million-yuan lottery ticket!
Li Ying comforted her, “Wanting, what’s past is past. Just find someone new. With your looks, it’s not hard to find an excellent guy.”
“Easier said than done. But where can I find a billionaire like that?”
“Lower your standards a bit. You work for an airline, it’s not hard to meet rich people. Someone with a million-yuan net worth would be good too.”
“A million-yuan net worth?”
Zhou Wanting scoffed. “I wouldn’t even look at someone with a ten-million-yuan net worth now, let alone a million.”
Li Ying’s mouth twitched. In the short month since they had last met, her best friend had once again refreshed her understanding of the world.
‘You wouldn’t look at them? It’s more like they have to be willing to look at you!’
She knew her best friend was ambitious, but she hadn’t expected her standards to be so high.
Forget a million-yuan net worth, even a ten-millionaire wouldn’t be short of women. He would definitely be picky.
‘Why would he be interested in you?’
“I’ve been wanting to get back together with him, but Shen Yuan has blocked my WeChat and phone number. I can’t find him at school. Don’t you think he’s so heartless?”
“I suffered with him for three years, and he only bought me those few bags. But after breaking up with me, he actually bought someone a million-yuan car and house.”
Zhou Wanting’s heart was severely imbalanced. Shen Yuan had become her obsession. Every time she thought of him, Zhou Wanting wanted to slap herself twice.
After all, they had been best friends for many years. Li Ying still wanted to persuade her. “It’s useless for you to think about these things now. Just live your own life and lower your standards a bit.”
“I can’t lower them, not even a little. When I think about how much money Shen Yuan spends on his women, my heart bleeds. That should have all been spent on me…”
“…”
Li Ying rolled her eyes in exasperation. She wasn’t going to try to persuade her anymore.
She felt that coming to have coffee with her best friend today was a mistake. This woman, Zhou Wanting, was completely hopeless.
Her mind was full of money, money, money.
Although everyone was materialistic in this impetuous society, one still had to have some basic self-awareness.
‘If you want a billionaire to be interested in you, you at least have to have some capital to show for it, right?’
‘Besides, you were the one who disliked Shen Yuan’s family going bankrupt. Now you want to get back together?’
‘How could he possibly agree!’
