C21 In This World Acting Is the Only Thing That Counts

The sun was shining brightly, but my heart was suddenly clouded.

I hadn't expected to meet Lee Ying, but her attitude was very different from the time I had met her, and full of provocation.

Lili and I walked to the parking lot in silence. Lili stopped and took my hand. "How could it be like this?"

"Who knows? Perhaps I felt that I was too weak last time and wanted to regain my dignity today!"

"But what does it have to do with us? Why tell us?"

I couldn't understand it either, but I didn't want to continue guessing. It would only make me more upset.

"I have a bold idea, but I think it's very possible that Lee Ying is related to Lian Kang, and the child in her womb is Lian Kang."

"What nonsense are you spouting!" The first thing I thought of was retort, and though I thought of that possibility on the way, I quickly dismissed it.

The part between Lian Kang and Lee Ying was originally a conspiracy and framing. Now that the matter had passed, the two of them would no longer have any interactions.

"Then why does she have a completely different attitude today? Why does she have to tell you that she's pregnant? What does she mean? "

As I listened, my heart became more and more agitated: "Didn't you already send someone to investigate? Lian Kang and Lee Ying didn't know each other before."

"It doesn't mean that we're not fooling around right now!" Lian Kang doesn't come back often these days, it would be too easy for him to do something! "

"Liu Jing!" I couldn't bear it any longer, it wasn't that she slandered Lian Kang, I just didn't want to think about it anymore. The trust that Lian Kang and I built up with so much effort, and the time when Pudding grew up, I had pretty much forgotten about the relationship between him and Lee Ying. Now, Liu Jingfei was going to bring it up for me: "Don't mention it, I don't want to bring it up again."

"Fine, since you don't want to talk about it, I'll help you investigate." Liu Jing turned her head. "This is different from the past. If they have any tricks up their sleeves, they will definitely be able to find out." She started the car and was about to leave when I banged on the window.

"Liu Jing, can you please leave it alone?"

"Why not? Why not make things clear?"

I stared at Liu Jing, and she stared back at me.

I know Liu Jing, she is straightforward, everything to be clear, but she does not know that in marriage, some things are unclear, rather than to be suspicious of it, it is better not to think about it.

"Fei, you weren't like this before. How did you become like this?"

"Don't worry about it, that's all." I'm tired and I want to go home and lie down.

"I insist. Wouldn't it be better if we found out that there are no problems with them? "If there's a problem, then I'll kick that stinky guy."

"Liu Jing!" "This is a matter between husband and wife. Can you mind your own business?" I swear I just blurted it out. I regretted it when I said it, but I can't take it back.

It was the only time Liu Jing and I had had such a relationship in years. I saw Liu Jing's eyes quickly turn red, but she said nothing. She just quietly closed the window and drove away.

I knew that I had hurt her heart. Liu Jing had always regarded me as a relative of hers, and she was worried about everything about me.

But right now, I don't know what's wrong with me. I just want to be a coward and not think about anything at all.

The next day I went to the studio, Liu Jing did not call me all morning, I know she was really angry.

So Xuanyuan brought Pudding to the studio to eat lunch, and we went to Liu Jing's house.

She had probably just woken up. She was sleeping soundly, and her eyes were still full of droppings.

When she saw me, her nostrils flared up and her face became like a cucumber, but when Xuanyuan Po appeared behind me with Pudding in his arms, her smile blossomed.

"Xuan Yuan and Pudding, come in quickly. Don't come in if there's anyone who doesn't know what's good for them!" She took Pudding and walked back into the house. I followed her with a smile.

"What, you're really angry?" I went to put my arm around her shoulders, but she coldly pushed me away. "My apologies, Miss. We are not familiar with each other. I am a very nosy person that would ruin the relationship between you and your wife."

"I brought you your favorite mustard octopus." I held up my packing case.

"Don't try this, it's useless." Liu Jingao was extremely delicate.

I know Liu Jing just said that she won't be angry for long.

Sure enough, she went to the kitchen to squeeze some fruit juice. She also squeezed a glass of mixed fruit juice for me and placed it in front of me. "Drink it. After drinking it, you'll die from the poison."

"Everyone in the world will harm me, only you won't." I took a large, obsequious sip, and Liu Jing smiled a little.

Pudding played for a while before falling asleep. Liu Jing and I went out for a walk.

"Where to?" Liu Jing started the car, "Wang Fujing or Yan Jing?"

"Wang Mansion, Gong Mei Building."

"What for?"

"Lian Kang's own company is there, I've never been there before, go take a look!"

Lian Kang might not be there during the day. Liu Jing nodded: "Alright, let's go!"

Arriving at the Wumei Building, I remembered Lian Kang saying that it was on the 16th floor. As expected, there was a big company sign on the wall opposite the elevator.

Liu Jing touched her gold lettering sign, "That's right, it's this company. I even used my surname, so why didn't I take your name with me? The mortgage is your house after all."

Pushing open the door, we found that the company's size was not bad. It was a 200-square-meter large office. Many employees were working at the office. When they saw us enter, a girl walked over. "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"May I ask if Director Lian is here? "Lian Kang." I asked.

"Oh, Director Lian usually doesn't come until around 5 PM. May I ask who you are? Please leave your contact details." The girl was kind, with her work plate around her neck. I looked and saw Liu Xiaoxiao.

"No need. Can I come to his office? "

The girl was a bit troubled, so she stopped me: "Sorry, when Director Lian's office is not here, I won't just casually let people in."

Liu Jing finally couldn't hold it in and pointed at me, "This is your boss' wife, Lian Kang's wife. Can't you go in as well? You know, your company or. "

I knew Liu Jing was going to start talking about mortgaging the house again, so I hastily stopped her. "Alright, let's go in and take a look!"

The girl looked at me doubtfully, but stopped us.

Lian Kang's office wasn't that big and looked simple. There was a desk by the window and two single sofas.

There was a lot of information on the table. I walked over to take a look. His drawer was locked, so I didn't intend to open it. After looking around, I said to Liu Jing, "Nothing suspicious."

"Is that so?" Liu Jing didn't seem to think so. She looked inside and out: "Didn't you say that Lian Kang has been living in the company for the past few months? Did you find the bed? There wasn't even a couch to lie on. Where was he sleeping? A desk or a floor? "

"Maybe there's a sofa in the big office. He can sleep anywhere." I don't even have the confidence to say it myself.

Liu Jing and I walked out of the office, and as we passed a wall, I stopped. There was a photo of the entire staff and an introduction to them, and I saw a familiar face on it.

Liu Jing went over to look. Then she turned her head and looked at me. "Lee Ying?"

I never thought that Lee Ying was actually an employee of Lian Kang's company. The employee introduction said, "Director of Market Department, Lee Ying."

Liu Jing held my hand and pulled an employee who was walking past us. "May I ask which office Lee Ying is in?"

The person pointed to a corner of the corridor, "She's in the marketing department, but she's not here today. She went to see a client."

"Oh, she's pregnant and still wants to meet a customer. She's a professional." Liu Jing smiled and said, "When did Lee Ying come to the company?"

"I'm not sure about that. I just arrived, so she came in front of me."

"Oh, I see. Did you know she was married, or did she have a boyfriend? "

"I don't know if she's married or not, but it seems like there will always be a guy coming to pick her up after work. He should be her husband!"

Liu Jing got the answer she wanted and pulled me out of Lian Kang's company.

We got into the car and Liu Jing turned on the air conditioner. It was as hot as a steamer.

"Fei, there are only two possibilities. Lee Ying working here is a coincidence, or else it's that so-called husband is just a front. We'll see what you think."

Let me guess, then, which one should I guess?

I don't know if I should ask Lian Kang, but even if I do, I won't be able to get the answer.

Liu Jing gave me two more options, one to find a private detective, the other to pretend I didn't know anything.
