This damn spyware…
It didn’t even ask for money at the final step?
Yi Haizhou didn’t have time to dwell on it. His goal was clear as he opened the chat dialog.
What weighed on his mind wasn’t the content of He Jing’s chats with Lin Yu.
It was her conversations with his male subordinate!
When he clicked in, there were only a few short exchanges.
「He Jing: If you don’t spend time with me next Sunday, I’ll go crazy from loneliness.」
「Male Subordinate: Isn’t Old Yi still around?」
「Male Subordinate: (smirking)」
「He Jing: Him? He’s been useless for a while now. Like I said, it’s been three months since we last did it!」
「Male Subordinate: Alright, alright. Next week, I’ll tell my wife I’m on a business trip and make time for you.」
Scrolling up further, he saw several voice call records—some as short as three minutes, others over an hour long!
Yi Haizhou then opened his own chat history with He Jing and skimmed through it.
No mistake.
Absolutely no mistake.
Aside from the swapped positions of the speakers, the content was identical.
So…
This chat log was real!
“Fcking hell… those damn cheaters!”
“He Jing, you goddamn whre…”
“Just wait! Just you fcking wait!”
“I’ll make sure you pay for this!”
“Bang! Bang!”
“…”
Yi Haizhou furiously punched his pillow twice, barely containing the rage burning in his chest.
He couldn’t confront his subordinate just yet.
If he made a scene now and exposed the affair, it could easily backfire—exposing the mess he’d made himself.
The angrier he got, the more he needed to stay calm.
He couldn’t afford to leave himself with no way out…
“Ding-dong!”
“Ding-dong!”
Just as Yi Haizhou was about to explode, his phone buzzed with new WeChat messages.
They were from He Jing… to Lin Yu!
If she could hook up with a subordinate after just one meeting, was this slut also involved with Lin Yu?
He quickly opened the chat.
The last two messages nearly made Yi Haizhou’s eyes bleed.
Two photos, sent by He Jing to Lin Yu.
Two unmistakable scenic shots from the Journey to the West set—
One of the Flower-Fruit Mountain.
The other of the Water Curtain Cave.
“Goddamn motherfcker…”
“You shameless btch…”
“Ding-dong!”
Soon, Lin Yu replied to He Jing’s account.
「Lin Yu: You’re so beautiful, sis (heart) (drooling) (finger wagging)」
「Lin Yu: Wait for me, I’m already on my way!」
Yi Haizhou: “!!!”
On his way now?
That little brat who barely had any hair down there was planting crops on his head too!
He Jing had clearly been lying all along.
She’d had her eyes on this young fool from the start.
And once she found out the kid had money, she must’ve been desperate to sink her teeth in.
Yi Haizhou knew He Jing—she was absolutely capable of this.
Where were they meeting?
Her place?
Or that private theater they frequented?
He scrolled up, searching for earlier messages.
Further up, the chat logs were marked with 【Deleted by Owner】.
Was this software really that powerful?
It could even recover deleted messages?
He Jing had erased these for a reason—she didn’t want anyone seeing them.
Yi Haizhou: “This… this is just…”
「00:46 AM」
「He Jing: Do you like the outfit I’m wearing to see you tomorrow, little brother?」
「He Jing: (mirror selfie of He Jing)」
「Lin Yu: Stunning!」
「Lin Yu: Sis, you said Yi Haizhou wouldn’t be a problem for us. How are you handling that? 【Deleted by Owner】」
「He Jing: Oh, him? He’s about to get arrested. No way he’ll bother us. I sent evidence of his embezzlement to his company’s boss—and copied all the regional managers too. He’ll be in cuffs by tomorrow. 【Deleted by Owner】」
「He Jing: (screenshot of sent email) 【Deleted by Owner】」
「Lin Yu: Trying to scam Auntie Qi Meng’s money? He deserves to die. Good thing you warned me, sis—that’s how I came up with the no-contract plan. (kiss) (kiss) 【Deleted by Owner】」
「He Jing: So… how are you going to thank me, handsome?」
「Lin Yu: (pic of dogs mating on the street)」
「He Jing: Come to my new place. Just finished renovating. The first time in this home… I’ll give it to you! 【Deleted by Owner】」
「He Jing: XXX Neighborhood, Building XX, Unit X, Room XXX. 【Deleted by Owner】」
「He Jing: Don’t tell anyone, okay? No one knows I bought this place. It’s our little love nest. (heart) (heart) 【Deleted by Owner】」
「Lin Yu: Sis, I’ve never… done it before. Zero experience. (shy) (shy)」
「He Jing: (smirk) I’ll guide you, handsome. Serve me well, and I’ll give you a lucky red packet afterward!」
「…」
Yi Haizhou didn’t even have time to finish reading all the 【Deleted by Owner】 messages.
He jumped out of bed, frantically changing clothes and shoes.
He Jing had reported him…
Goddamn her!
She was so eager for her own pleasure that she’d throw him in jail without hesitation!
His first instinct was to run.
If he waited even a second longer, the cops might already be downstairs, ready to drag him away.
But once dressed, Yi Haizhou hesitated.
Run?
Where to?
If he fled, what would happen to his wife and kids?
Would they suffer for the responsibilities he was supposed to bear?
Back then…
If he hadn’t given in to temptation and gotten involved with He Jing,
Maybe his luck wouldn’t have soured, his reputation wouldn’t have collapsed, and he wouldn’t be trapped in this irreversible mess now.
The only thing he could do for his family now was ensure they weren’t dragged down with him.
But there was one more thing he couldn’t swallow.
Why?
Why should he rot in jail while He Jing frolicked freely, pampering her toy boy?
If she wanted him dead, then no one would live happily!
Yi Haizhou rushed down the stairs, muttering the address He Jing had sent Lin Yu.
The neighborhood wasn’t unfamiliar to him.
A year ago,
He Jing had mentioned checking out this place.
Back then, she’d claimed she couldn’t afford it.
Yi Haizhou, still flush with cash at the time, had even given her money to help with the down payment.
When he asked about it later, she’d said she’d spent it elsewhere.
Turns out,
She’d bought the place long ago—fully renovated and ready for her new lover!
And Yi Haizhou, the oblivious fool, had been completely in the dark.
A new home, huh?
Tonight, it’d become a haunted house!

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
