My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 801: Chapter 803: Capturing X (7)

“But I swear, I will make them pay the price!”

…

At that time, after Qin Zhiyou had spoken those words, Fang Rushuang also fell silent for a moment. She was naturally aware of her father’s issues; in Uncle Bai’s divorce case, her father had staunchly sided with Bai Changyou, and she had vaguely heard something about them having a history of going overseas for investments and projects. However, during the divorce, all that was compensated to Aunt Lu was an old house and less than two million in cash. The rest was said to be tied up in a company bankruptcy and liquidation. If it weren’t for her previous eavesdropping about overseas investments, she might have merely sighed at the high risk in the real estate industry. Little did she know, they might have had their next move prepared long ago.

But she couldn’t bring herself to undermine her father’s stance, and besides, even if she told Lu Weixi, what good would it do? With the capabilities of Aunt Lu and Lu Weixi, tracking down overseas assets would be extremely difficult. She could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, gradually distancing herself from Weixi.

“But no matter what, weren’t she and Zhisu always affectionate with each other? They’ve been together for nearly four years – how could they just break up like that? And it involves Yiren…” Fang Rushuang was genuinely a bit shocked, “And Zhisu seems quite resolute, I’ve heard they’d been in contact privately for a very long time. Perhaps a year or two ago, he already knew of Yiren’s feelings.”

What Cai Yiren said was actually not wrong; she did confess to Qin Zhigu on Lu Weixi’s twentieth birthday. Though Qin Zhigu didn’t accept her, he didn’t distance himself either, and the two maintained an unspoken understanding.

But this sentence was an absolute bombshell for Lu Weixi!

She had thought that Qin Zhigu’s feelings had changed recently because she hadn’t spent much time with him, but could it be that one or two years ago, he and Cai Yiren had already developed this kind of “understanding”?

In the past two years, had she been kept in the dark all along? Just like her mother had been kept in the dark by Bai Changyou and Cai Yiren’s mother for so many years!

“How can you say that? Do you have any evidence?” Qin Zhiyou helped Lu Weixi voice the doubts in her heart.

Such a statement might not be accurate when relayed, especially coming from someone like Fang Zheng, who had a grudge against her.

“I heard it from Yiren on the phone. But when she said it, Zhisu was there with her. She told me herself, but Zhisu didn’t refute it. Doesn’t that count as an admission?”

Fang Rushuang knew Qin Zhigu’s temperament; if something wasn’t right, he would definitely speak up. His failure to refute meant that what Cai Yiren had said was true. Perhaps he had already changed his heart a year or two ago!

“I’ll tell you, when a man’s heart changes, it usually falls into one of two categories. The first is he has grown tired of his current woman. It might be because he was spoiled too much during the pursuit, and after he got her, he didn’t want to put in the same effort as before. The second is—he might have had some kind of intimate relationship with this new woman.”

He said this directly to Lu Weixi, who was sitting in front of him.

“A man will remember a woman who left a deep impression on him. If it’s the former case, then the impact is even more profound.”

“What about us then?” Fang Rushuang suddenly asked softly, a blush creeping onto her face,

Qin Zhiyou lifted the corners of his mouth slighty, “I will respect you. If you dislike it, we’ll leave that matter for after we’re married. I may be a playboy, but I understand some women can’t be trifled with—you touch them, you’re responsible. But don’t worry, after you marry into the Qin Family, you and Cai Yiren will be sisters-in-law; it would be good for you two to cultivate a relationship.”
