The next morning, Fu Linyuan was still in deep sleep when he was abruptly awakened by Shen Jing. She seemed to be having a nightmare, sweating profusely and breathing heavily. Fu Linyuan quickly pulled her into his arms to calm her down, but in the next moment, Shen Jing exclaimed, "Liang Chengfei..."
Shen Jing had dreamt about the events of her past life. Liang Chengfei had taken advantage of her feelings and made her steal confidential information from the Fu family. It nearly landed Fu Linyuan in jail, and he became completely disappointed in her and her grandfather's family...
Fu Linyuan sat at the edge of the bed, looking at Shen Jing with diminishing warmth in his eyes, replaced by a shadow of gloominess. "Shen Jing, this is the second time." Calling out another man's name in his bed for the second time. If she liked Liang Chengfei so much, then why did she play that act yesterday? Hearing Shen Jing call out Liang Chengfei's name again today not only made him angry, but also left an indescribable sense of loss that weighed heavily on his heart.
Fu Linyuan got up and put on his coat, heading out of the room. Fu Nan stood downstairs, and upon seeing Fu Linyuan come out, he felt a heavy air surrounding him. He cautiously asked, "Young Master, what about Miss Shen?"
"Call her Madam," Fu Linyuan corrected Fu Nan's way of addressing her, even though he was still angry. He walked briskly while giving instructions, "Remind the villa's servants to address her as Madam from now on."
Fu Nan nodded. "Yes, I will inform the staff. Shall I prepare breakfast for you before you go to the company, Young Master?"
Fu Linyuan sneered. Breakfast? What breakfast? He was already fed up with being angry!
Fu Linyuan adjusted his tie. "I won't eat. Have them make a nourishing soup and give it to that heartless girl upstairs when she wakes up."
Shen Jing slept until ten o'clock before getting up. She tidied herself and went downstairs, but she didn't see Fu Linyuan. She asked, "Where is Mister?"
The servants brought the food to the dining table, and the butler respectfully replied, "Mister left for the company very early and didn't seem to be in a good mood. He left without having breakfast."
"He didn't eat breakfast?" Shen Jing frowned. Who provoked him again? Weren't they fine last night? Fu Linyuan's temper was still the same, unpredictable. If he didn't want breakfast, then so be it. She was more comfortable enjoying her meal alone.
While eating, Shen Jing scrolled through her Weibo. Jiang Lanzhu and Liang Chengfei were trending on the news, and their explicit nude photos were all over the internet.
"Breaking news! Famous actress Jiang Lanzhu and wealthy young master Liang Chengfei caught having sex outside! Things got heated!"
"Oh my god, this is too scandalous! Jiang Lanzhu seemed so innocent, who would have thought she would do something like this behind the scenes?"
"Hahaha, just between us, Jiang Lanzhu's breasts are so small in the video! They looked so big in the photos previously, did she secretly use padding?"
Upon reading this comment, Shen Jing couldn't help but burst into laughter. She was in a good mood and even had an extra bowl of rice. Now, Jiang Lanzhu's reputation was truly ruined.
Just as Shen Jing was enjoying herself, her phone rang. The caller ID showed her father's name, Jiang Wenhe. Shen Jing's eyes turned cold instantly.
Jiang Wenhe came from a rural background and managed to deceive Shen Jing's mother with his face and words. He successfully married into the Shen family and climbed up the social ladder step by step with their support. Shen Jing's mother even severed ties with the Shen family for the sake of so-called love and wholeheartedly helped Jiang Wenhe advance. But what about Jiang Wenhe? He had affairs outside and even had a daughter around the same age as Shen Jing—Jiang Lanzhu. After Shen Jing's mother passed away, Jiang Wenhe welcomed Jiang Lanzhu and her mother into the Jiang family the very next day. It wasn't until Shen Jing's previous life, just before her death, that she discovered their plot—her mother's death was orchestrated by all of them!
In other words, Jiang Wenhe was one of the culprits responsible for her mother's death! Shen Jing suppressed her anger and hatred, and answered the call. As soon as the call connected, a man's furious roar came through, "Shen Jing! Get back here immediately! Look at what you've done! How could you be so malicious? You've ruined your sister's reputation! You slut! You're just as despicable as your mother! Equally malicious!"
Shen Jing gritted her teeth so hard that she almost broke them, and the knuckles of her fingers holding the phone turned white.
Jiang Wenhe continued, "Shen Jing! Are you mute? I'm talking to you!"
Suppressing her anger, Shen Jing spoke with a hoarse voice, "Alright, I'll go back." After hanging up the phone, her breathing remained erratic. Since Jiang Wenhe wanted her to go back, she would go back and take a look.
