I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years - Chapter 271
Chapter 271: Not Clean
Counting the time, Hu Xilin probably drove to Zhizhen Manor Community after hanging up the phone call with Lei Cheng.
Zhizhen Manor was an old and top-notch mansion. The people who lived here were not ordinary people. The management of the community was very strict. Outside vehicles would never enter this community without being greeted by the owner.
“I’m out, not at home,” Lei Cheng said to the phone, while glancing at Wu Chen.
“Don’t lie to me, Lao Lei.” Hu Xilin pointed it out directly and said, “If you don’t arrange for someone to come out to pick me up, I will block the gate.”
He wanted to block the gate of the community.
Lei Cheng also had nothing to do with Hu Xilin. If Hu Xilin was just nosy and stubborn, it would be impossible for Lei Cheng to become friends with him.
Hu Xilin’s character and style had always been consistent. He was not the kind of person who didn’t care about trivial matters and pretended not to see big things!
He was very generous and loved to help!
Lei Cheng had been in Donghai for ten years. In addition to being the chairman of Formao Group, he also started his own business in Donghai. He started everything, and Hu Xilin was of great help to him!
“Oh! OK, OK, OK… Just wait a moment.” Lei Cheng said impatiently.
His tone was mixed with helplessness.
After saying that, he hung up.
“Lao Hu… Hu Xilin is at the gate and wants to come in.” Lei Cheng looked at Wu Chen and said, “He said he wanted to meet before, but I said I didn’t have time, so he came to the door right now.”
“He is really a quick-tempered person.” Wu Chen smiled habitually, without any special changes in his face.
Hu Xilin was also a well-known figure in Donghai. Although he had not reached the heights of Lu Guangnian, Mu Sihai and others, he was not far behind.
Wu Chen knew Hu Xilin and his temperament.
Not only that, Wu Chen also knew that Hu Xilin would come to Lei Cheng at this time, because on the previous “July 20”, Hu Xilin came to Lei Cheng.
Although Wu Chen did not meet with Lei Cheng last “July 20” and all the scheduled meetings were cancelled, the two had phone calls many times, so Wu Chen knew about it.
Regarding Hu Xilin’s coming, Wu Chen did not make any special announcement.
He didn’t mention whether it would be convenient for him to meet Hu Xilin.
It’s okay if he didn’t mention it.
Lei Cheng stood up, walked to the desk on the other side of the study, picked up the intercom on the table, pressed it and said, “Leizi, Boss Hu is outside the door, go pick him up.”
After giving instructions to those outside, Lei Cheng also left the study, went to the stairs and shouted a few words downstairs, asking Tao Manying to take a look.
“Dabao, Lao Hu is here. When he comes in, tell him to go to the study…”
Wu Chen sat on the sofa in the study and did not move. He could hear whatever Lei Cheng shouted.
Soon, Lei Cheng returned to the study and sat down on the sofa again.
Lei Cheng glanced at the cell phone on the table, which belonged to Wu Chen. He looked at Wu Chen again, raised his hand to gesture to the cell phone, and said, “Brother, that video… are you planning to…”
“I’ll show it to Hu Xilin,” Wu Chen said with a smile.
“Give it directly?” Lei Cheng asked hurriedly and felt “very cruel”.
Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling had been married for twenty years. They had a son and a daughter. The relationship between the couple had always been harmonious.
Hu Xilin came here to persuade Lei Cheng.
This was so sudden that Hu Xilin would know that he had been cuckolded. It was so sudden! He didn’t know what kind of blow he would get.
Moreover, doing so was likely to offend Hu Xilin. Not only was the family scandal being discovered and exposed by outsiders first, it would indeed make Hu Xilin very embarrassed, and his face would be completely lost.
But the more important thing was – why was Qian Ruiling secretly photographed?
Even Hu Xilin himself didn’t suspect his wife, so why did an outsider start it first?
It’s very strange and unexpected!
It made others feel that there was an ulterior motive!
“Yes, give it directly.” Wu Chen nodded to Lei Cheng.
“Wouldn’t it not be good to give it directly…?” Lei Cheng asked, with a very embarrassed tone.
He considered this matter from the perspective of a friend. Now that he knew that Hu Xilin was cuckolded, as a friend, he must let him know.
But! How to remind Hu Xilin and how to make Hu Xilin accept it better? This was what he didn’t know.
Lei Cheng felt that “direct payment” was not a good choice.
Lei Cheng knew very well that as long as Hu Xilin watched the video, he would have no time to bother him and would go back to get a divorce.
Even so, as a friend, it could be said to be very unjust to “give it directly” without considering the feelings of friends!
“There’s nothing wrong with it.” Wu Chen glanced at Lei Cheng with a smile and paused. Then he smiled and said, “Do you think Hu Xilin is clean himself?”
Lei Cheng was stunned for a moment before he understood what Wu Chen said.
“He has other women?” Lei Cheng asked.
“Uh-huh.” Wu Chen nodded.
Lei Cheng was still stunned, because he and Hu Xilin had been friends for ten years, and they moved around frequently in the past ten years. In addition to business contacts, they met every month in private… But he didn’t know that Hu Xilin had other women!
Not only did he not know about it, he even never heard of it!
Some rich bosses loved to play, and some didn’t.
Hu Xilin was the kind of person who didn’t like to play. The relationship between him and Qian Ruiling had always been very good. The couple could even be regarded as a model couple in the Donghai business district…
“He raises a mistress? Brother, are you sure?”
Wu Chen nodded, but Lei Cheng still asked again in disbelief.
It’s not that he didn’t believe Wu Chen.
But this matter was a bit illogical.
Regarding Qian Ruiling’s cheating, Lei Cheng didn’t think anything about it after watching the video. He would not doubt whether the video was true or false, nor would he think about why Qian Ruiling cheated.
Because Lei Cheng and Qian Ruiling were familiar with each other, but his understanding was limited. After all, she was his “sister-in-law”, and Lei Cheng would not get too close to her. Therefore, when the factual evidence of Qian Ruiling’s cheating was put in front of him, he would not have groundless speculation and doubt.
Hu Xilin was different.
So familiar!
A friend of ten years, Lei Cheng had no idea that Hu Xilin had another woman, and there was no hint of it. If he really did, how could he keep it so airtight? And why should he keep it secret like this?
He couldn’t figure it out!
Between men, there was no need to keep secrets in this kind of matter. They all covered each other and helped each other conceal it.
“I’m sure.” Wu Chen nodded again, and then smiled, “Although Hu Xilin has no plans to divorce, he still has feelings for Qian Ruiling. Even though his family has always been harmonious, he does have other women. Moreover, there are more than one.”
Lei Cheng’s face was still strange.
Since Wu Chen said this, it seemed that it would be okay to show the video directly to Hu Xilin. Although he would be angry, he would not suffer a big blow. After all, he himself had cheated.
But… he still couldn’t figure it out!
How did Hu Xilin do such a good job of keeping secrets?
In fact, not only Hu Xilin, but also Qian Ruiling. Both of these couples cheated on each other, but they did a very good job of keeping it secret! There was no news at all, which was very strange.
When Wu Chen saw Lei Cheng’s expression, he knew what Lei Cheng was thinking.
He didn’t beat around the bush with him either.
“Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling signed a prenuptial agreement.” Wu Chen looked at Lei Cheng and said directly, “The one who cheated after marriage will divorce and leave the house!”
Lei Cheng’s eyes widened and he was shocked again.
He had never heard of a prenuptial agreement.
Listening to what Wu Chen said, the reason why Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling both cheated on each other but kept it strictly confidential was found! They were both afraid that the other party would find out that they had cheated on each other, especially afraid!
As far as Lei Cheng knew, they held more than 3 billion worth of Xirui Electronics’ shares as a couple. They have worked hard together for 20 years, but the shares were only in Hu Xilin’s name.
So from another perspective, the video taken by Wu Chen is evidence of Qian Ruiling’s cheating, and it was likely that Qian Ruiling would leave the house when they divorce.
Then the value of this video was – 1.5 billion!
