Chapter 2244 - 2217: Got a Mistress Outside

Lin Yafei listened to Lu Tianxing’s words, her eyes flickering with a sly gleam, and she said in a somewhat sarcastic tone, "Little man, are you sure you’re just Lingling’s godfather and don’t have any unclear relationship with Qiu Yingrong?"

As she spoke, Lin Yafei looked at Lu Tianxing with a playful smile, "Little man, as far as I know, Qiu Yingrong is a top-notch beauty, exuding the qualities of a virtuous wife and mother, gentle like water. Are you sure you don’t have the slightest thought about her? Moreover, I know that someone once spent an hour or two with Qiu Yingrong in a tea house. Can you tell me what you two were doing in that tea house for those hours?"

Lu Tianxing was taken aback, not expecting Lin Yafei to suddenly change the subject.

Before Lu Tianxing could collect himself, Lin Yafei spoke again, "Little man, why don’t you tell me! Rest assured, I can assure you I won’t tell Little Qingqing anything, how about that."

"What can’t be told to me, Lin Demon, Lu Tianxing, you two better come clean. Are you hiding something shameful from me?"

Just as Lin Yafei’s voice fell, the door to the next room suddenly opened, and Bai Zhiqing, already fully dressed, emerged from the bedroom, her beautiful eyes fixed sharply on Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei.

She hadn’t heard what Lin Yafei had said earlier, but she did hear Lin Yafei’s last sentence, about hiding something from her, which prompted Bai Zhiqing to speak up.

Upon hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lu Tianxing hurriedly explained, "Wife, there’s no shameful secret. Lin Demon said she found a new restaurant with great food in Beijing and suggested taking us there tonight. She asked me not to tell you yet to surprise you."

"Really?"

Bai Zhiqing looked at Lu Tianxing with suspicion, her instincts telling her that Lu Tianxing must be lying.

"Really, of course, it’s true, truer than real gold."

Lu Tianxing nodded vigorously, trying hard to appear sincere.

Lin Yafei also came to Bai Zhiqing’s side at this moment, saying in a somewhat wistful tone, "Little man, lying is not what good kids do."

"Lying?"

After hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Bai Zhiqing was slightly taken aback, and her complexion suddenly turned cold, her entire body exuding a chilly aura.

Feeling the coldness hidden in Bai Zhiqing’s tone, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but shiver and quickly defended himself, "Wife, look into my sincere eyes. Do you think I would lie to you?"

"Is that so? How would you never lie to your wife?"

As soon as Lu Tianxing’s words fell, Lin Yafei already said mockingly, "Then why did you lie? Why didn’t you just tell your wife about the little advantage you secretly took from me earlier?"

Upon hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face immediately turned dark.

And Bai Zhiqing’s expression also became extremely unpleasant, gritting her teeth as she spat out three words: "Lu Tianxing..."

Feeling Bai Zhiqing’s murderous gaze and seeing Lin Yafei standing beside her with a look of anticipation for drama, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but feel exasperated, his eyes angrily scanning Lin Yafei’s backside. This woman is simply out of control unless put in her place; it seems necessary to teach her a lesson tonight so she knows the consequences of casually slandering her man.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianxing was about to say something when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Hearing the ringtone, Lu Tianxing grabbed it like a lifeline and said to Bai Zhiqing, "Wife, I need to take a call. You and Lin Demon go have breakfast, don’t wait for me."

With that, without waiting for Bai Zhiqing to respond, Lu Tianxing dashed towards the nearby bathroom and locked the door behind him.

"Little Qingqing, your man has a dog out there." Lin Yafei watched Lu Tianxing’s embarrassed retreat and then looked at Bai Zhiqing.

Hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Bai Zhiqing’s expression didn’t change at all. She just glanced at Lin Yafei indifferently, "Is the dog you’re talking about yourself?"

"Have you ever seen such a pretty dog?"

Unfazed by Bai Zhiqing’s sarcastic jab, Lin Yafei responded with a smile, "When you’re with me, it’s called keeping it in the family, you know. Also, Little Qingqing, I’m not lying to you. Based on experience circulated online about women, when a man secretly takes a call behind his wife’s back, the caller is undoubtedly a woman, and one who shares an ambiguous relationship with your man; otherwise, why would your man sneak away to take the call if he has nothing to hide?"

"Is that so?"

Bai Zhiqing gave Lin Yafei a casual glance, not showing any anger over Lin Yafei’s words, "If you think he’s out there womanizing, go eavesdrop by the bathroom; I won’t join you. I’m going down for breakfast."

With that, Bai Zhiqing didn’t give Lin Yafei a chance to speak and directly turned to head downstairs.

Watching Bai Zhiqing’s departing figure, Lin Yafei shrugged helplessly. She had originally planned to tease Bai Zhiqing a bit, but Bai Zhiqing didn’t fall for it, which was a bit awkward.

On the other side, after hiding in the bathroom, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath. Thank goodness for that timely phone call, sparing him from the misery of earlier; otherwise, he’d be doomed.

Reaching into his pocket for the phone, Lu Tianxing glanced at the caller ID. Without hesitation, he answered the call immediately.

"Sima Lingyun, why so free today and decided to contact me? This isn’t your usual style. But let’s clear things up in advance: if you’re asking me for help, forget about it. I’m pretty busy lately and don’t have time for idle chatter." Lu Tianxing said directly upon answering the call.

"You’re now like a clay Buddha crossing the river, struggling to save yourself, help me? You better think about how to survive this time!"

Sima Lingyun took a deep breath and said heavily, "Judge, are you really confident this time? If you’re not fully confident, I hope you can leave Beijing, taking Bai Zhiqing and Lin Yafei with you. Of course, our Yanhuang Group will do everything in its power to escort you back to Modu or Jiangnan."

Sima Lingyun’s tone carried an unprecedented seriousness.
