When the headlights of the car shone past the signboard of Xiushui Road, Liang Zhou frowned.
Xiushui Road was a villa district. The scenery was very beautiful, and the air was much better compared to the downtown area. Initially, Liang Zhou had taken a liking to this place and wanted to buy a villa here. However, at that time, Mu Qing had said the people living here were mostly mistresses raised by wealthy men. He had said how could a decent woman like her live in such a place. For that reason, she gave up on the idea of living here. After all, she was not a mistress.
At this moment, Mu Chen said to A Jiang who was driving, “Mr. Hiang, please give a brief explanation of this place…”
A Jiang said in a deep voice, “This place is very famous. The women who live here are all young and beautiful. They come and go in luxury cars and wear famous brands. However, most of them are mistresses raised by wealthy men.”
The car slowly drove past the community gate. It was obvious the car was authorized to enter this place.
Liang Zhou looked at Mu Chen in shock. “Mu Chen, do you have a lover here?”
Mu Chen smiled noncommittally.
Liang Zhou said anxiously, “Mu Chen, you and Song Ning have such a good relations.h.i.+p. Your son is only a few months old. H-how can you do such a thing? If your grandmother finds out about this, she won’t let you off the hook…”
At this moment, Liang Zhou’s words to Mu Chen were sincere. She knew better than anyone else what Jiang Jin’s stance was regarding those who betrayed their marriages. Up until now, she had never been able to gain acceptance from Jiang Jin. Even Mu Qing had a hard time regaining Jiang Jin’s acceptance.
Liang Zhou grew even more anxious when she saw Mu Chen did not seem to care at all.
After a brief moment, the car pulled to a stop in front of a villa.
Mu Chen opened the door and alighted from the car.
A Jiang opened the door for Liang Zhou as she hesitantly alighted from the car and followed Mu Chen into the villa.
The villa was well-decorated. It was simple yet luxurious.
Mu Chen only turned on the lights on the hall before walking in.
Liang Zhou was puzzled. It did not seem like anyone was living here. Where did Mu Chen hide his lover?
Mu Chen entered the master bedroom and continued making his way to the balcony.
Liang Zhou followed behind him skeptically. She looked around the place as the doubts in her heart grew. There was no sign of anyone living in this place.
The entrance to the balcony was covered by curtains, and high-powered binoculars stood at the entrance.
Mu Chen slightly drew the curtains to the side before he pointed to the villa opposite.
Liang Zhou looked in the direction he pointed and saw a similar villa. However, the villa was brightly lit. From this vantage point, she could vaguely see a couple in the living room. She turned to look at Mu Chen uncertainly.
Mu Chen retracted his hand, letting the curtains drop. Then, he pointed at the binoculars and said, “If you’re curious, you can use these binoculars to see the people in that villa.”
Liang Zhou looked at the binoculars. As though she was being controlled, she walked toward the binoculars. She bent down slightly and looked through the binoculars. She could easily see the living room and the man sitting in front of a table, drinking tea. At this moment, she suddenly felt as though her heart had stopped beating.
The man was Mu Qing. Mu Qing who had told her he was having tea with a friend at a teahouse on s.h.i.+ Fu Road.
She was shocked, and her mind was blank.. She instinctively took a step back, feeling as though she was stuck in a nightmare.
