Chapter 31 – A Nice and Innocent Man (2)
Judging from his look, Boss Su figured that Li WangJin didn’t like to hear that from someone else so he stopped. He did, however, snicker to himself; his wife had been singing Li WangJin’s praises at home on a regular basis. About how he was very faithful to his wife and never had another woman on the side. Judging from what he was seeing now, Li WangJin was just better at hiding, that’s all.
He has other women as well, but at least he never thought he’d leave his wife for them. Li WangJin didn’t seem to understand even that basic concept.
The interruption from Boss Su put Li WangJin’s mood back in the valley. He quickly took Wang SiXian back to her place and took off. Normally, he would spend a lot of time comforting her when he saw that Wang SiXian was down, but he wasn’t in the mood right now.

Fang JunRong looked at her additional $3 billion in her bank card and was exceptionally happy. Thinking about how Li WangJin had tried so hard in transferring and stashing away their assets and over half of them now ended up in her hands, the happiness that was built upon Li WangJin’s suffering increased exponentially.
She was right about him. When blackmailed, Li WangJin finally paid He Ming $2 billion to keep his mouth shut. But, he had also expressed that should He Ming tried to blackmail him again, then no matter what the consequences would be, he’d sue him and send him to jail.
The money finally ended in Fang JunRong’s hands. Fang JunRong paid He Ming $1 billion in return for his help. She had never shown her face the entire time. Everything went through her good friend Xu WeiWei, so He Ming had no idea who he was in cohorts with. After he received his share, he settled down overseas anonymously.
She had no intention to go after He Ming. This entire time, He Ming was but a little pawn in the whole event. Plus, He Ming wasn’t a low-key person. He couldn’t help but be high-spirited after he had received the money. Who knew what would happen if he didn’t remain low-key?
Now that Wang SiXian was back in the country, Fang JunRong was able to collect even more evidence. Ironically, Li WangJin seemed to have forgotten that all their properties were under her name and had Wang SiXian settled in one of their houses. He had that much faith in her trust for him?
As the owner of the house, naturally Fang JunRong has the key to every property. She took the opportunity when Wang SiXian was out and had someone install spy cams inside – bedrooms, living room, etc – covering every corner of the house.
She put her cellphone away and planned to go out for her afternoon tea.
Li XinYun just got home and gave Fang JunRong a bright smile as soon as she saw her. “Mom! Are you going out?”
Fang JunRong nodded. “Yes, I am going to dinner with Su Mei of Hengyuan Corporation.”
Li XinYun had always been around Fang JunRong and knew pretty much everyone in the circle. Her delicate brows frowned a little and she said, “That Aunty Sun? I thought you weren’t too fond of her?”
Fang JunRong nodded. “We are not, but she asked me out and I can’t very well just turn her down.” Even though Fang JunRong wasn’t very fond of Sun Mei, she played a critical role in Fang JunRong’s plans.
That made sense to Li XinYun. She lamented, “It’s so hard to be an adult.” Then she changed the subject and said excitedly, “Mom, do you have any more of those Beautify Pills? They were so effective. I feel that my skin has become much better after I have had them.”
Fang JunRong’s laboratory reports have come back. When she found out that the Beautify Pills were harmless to her, she gave some of them to her daughter. Taking a closer look now, even though XunYun’s skin had always been good, now they looked visibly better.
Her skin was like amber – no pores could be seen and looked to be glowing under the sun.
She smiled and said, “I have already placed a box on your table. Don’t forget to take them. One a day will be sufficient.”
“Okay.” Li XinYun was immediately distracted by the Beautify Pills and couldn’t wait to go upstairs.
Fang JunRong smiled, looked away from her daughter, and left to meet up with Sun Mei.
She was going to meet up with Sun Mei at a western food restaurant. Words had it that Sun Mei grew up overseas and prefers western food to Chinese food.
Su Mei married her husband for family alliances. It was obvious that Sun Mei was quite fond of her husband, but her husband didn’t seem to have much feelings toward her. He had affairs with actresses all the time and was very open about them, not caring to even put up a front.
It was just last week when Fang JunRong read on the web how Boss Su had spent a large amount of money to celebrate the birthday of an actress. Li WangJin, on the other hand, had a very good reputation in the circle and also held himself as the good man with no scandals. The stark contrast made Sun Mei unhappy with Fang JunRong, and Fang JunRong also never got along that well with her.
