The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 237
Chapter 237: Someone Else Almost Slept With Your Wife (1)
When Jiang Yue finally ran out of words to say, she suddenly recalled the main matter at hand. “Oh right, Yaoyao. How did you know that Liang Mumu was scheming against you yesterday? You told me that if she used your phone to call Han Jing, I should act like Han Jing and chat with her. You even got me to borrow a set of Han Jing’s clothes from He Tiantian before coming over.”
Shi Yao: “It was a guess.”
“Ah?” Jiang Yue was taken aback for a moment before she placed her hand on Shi Yao’s forehead. “You aren’t burning up, so why are you suddenly speaking nonsense?”
“I’m being serious here…” Shi Yao looked at Jiang Yue. “… It really was a guess. Those instructions were just a precaution in case something happened.”
Jiang Yue: “So, you knew that Liang Mumu would try to do something to you?”
Shi Yao replied with a light “Mm”.
Jiang Yue: “I can still understand that you managed to see through Liang Mumu’s disguise, but how did you know how she was planning to deal with you?”
Shi Yao: “Well, I’ve known her for quite a few years now, so I do have some understanding of how she thinks. On top of that, she recently talked about Han Jing in front of Lin Jiage’s grandfather on purpose…”
Jiang Yue shook her head. “I still don’t get it.”
Shi Yao could only explain the matter in more detail. “Think about it. If you wanted to destroy a person’s reputation, especially a woman who’s already engaged, what would be the most direct method to do it? Catching her in the middle of an affair, right?”
Jiang Yue nodded.
Shi Yao continued, “That’s why I thought that Liang Mumu would try to strike me from there. But no one would be foolish enough to get caught in the middle of an affair. So, what could she do? The most direct way would be to make that person drunk or drug her. As for the male partner, she specifically chose Han Jing. Do you get it now?”
Jiang Yue pondered for a moment before shaking her head, “I still don’t get it.”
Shi Yao rolled her eyes speechlessly for a moment before pointing it out clearly once more, “She intentionally mentioned that I was quite close with Han Jing right in front of Lin Jiage’s grandfather…”
“Oh, oh, oh!” Jiang Yue widened her eyes in realization. “… That Liang Mumu sure is a schemer! She’s been plotting against you for a long time!”
“Right…” Shi Yao replied as her voice drifted off into silence. Sometime later, she muttered under her breath, “… A long time.”
It was so long that it stretched back to the night at the Golden Resplendence where Lin Jiage kissed her because of a game; the day when she decided to cancel the engagement with Lin Jiage but ended up meeting him in the SKP elevator; or perhaps even the very first day that they met, where a smiling Liang Mumu offered her a candy as she introduced herself, “Hi, my name is Liang Mumu. What’s your name?”
There were some things in life that were simply fake, right from the very start.
So, from the very first day we met, we were already doomed to fall out with each other…
“Yaoyao?” Jiang Yue didn’t notice Shi Yao’s strange mood, and she continued asking. “There’s still one more thing that I don’t get. Why didn’t you just get Han Jing to tell me if Liang Mumu called or messaged him? That way, you wouldn’t have to go to the trouble of changing Han Jing’s phone number to mine.”
“Yueyue, are you being serious here?” When Jiang Yue nodded in response to the question, Shi Yao shook her head helplessly before explaining, “Silly! Aside from the fact that I already decided to distance myself from Senior Han, even if we still stayed as friends, I still wouldn’t ask him for help. That would’ve been too dangerous. What if he didn’t tell you and headed to the hotel himself?”
Jiang Yue nodded her head vigorously, “Right right right! That makes perfect sense…”
