After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage-Chapter 18 - : Can’t You Show Your Face?
Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Can’t You Show Your Face?
Li Lingyang admired the panic on her face, sarcastically asking, “What else should I do? Do I have to make my girlfriend wait outside for you?”
“You’re insane! How could she see us like this?”
Li Lingyang wore a cold, thin smirk, “Are you ashamed to be seen?”
Ning Yichu, “… ”
He did it on purpose!
Such a vindictive jerk!
...
Seeing that Li Lingyang was already opening the door, Ning Yichu’s anger surged, but she had no choice but to hide in the closet at the last moment. She moved so forcefully she almost banged her shoulder.
Li Lingyang caught a glimpse of the closet door closing from the corner of his eye, the corners of his mouth rising imperceptibly, and then he opened the door to the woman outside.
Shen Jiangqing was obviously dressed up, even wearing thick jasmine perfume.
But Li Lingyang didn’t like the scent, and he said indifferently, “How did you get here?”
Shen Jiangqing spoke with concern, “I had a hospital check-up appointment this morning, and I saw your car downstairs as I was passing by, so I came up to see how you were. Young Master Mu took you out for drinks yesterday, you must be feeling dizzy now, right?”
She lifted the thermos in her hand, “I brought you some hangover soup, would you like to try some?”
Li Lingyang often rested here after getting drunk with Mu Bailang, as this hotel had his stake and the penthouse was reserved for him year-round.
Li Lingyang’s expression remained indifferent, “No need, I didn’t drink much last night.”
“I saw you didn’t come home last night and thought Young Master Mu had kept you out all night,” Shen Jiangqing said with a hint of reproach, as if she quite disliked the way Mu Bailang dragged Li Lingyang out.
Li Lingyang was still cool and distant, “I didn’t stay out all night, I just didn’t drive because of the alcohol, and I didn’t want to disturb the kids.”
Shen Jiangqing looked subtly into the suite, biting her lip, “Are you busy this morning? Can you accompany me to the hospital for a follow-up? I’m a bit scared to go alone…”
“I have things to do later, I’ll have Special Assistant Xu go with you,” Li Lingyang said, picking up his phone to make a call.
Shen Jiangqing, “…”
Does he even understand her hints?
But she didn’t want Li Lingyang to think she was being troublesome, so she smiled and said, “With Special Assistant Xu, your right-hand man, by my side, I’ll feel much more at ease. I’ll leave now.”
“Be careful on the road.”
Li Lingyang cautioned her and then shut the door without hesitation.
Ning Yichu, who was hiding in the closet, heard their conversation clearly and suddenly couldn’t understand Li Lingyang. Didn’t he like Shen Jiangqing very much? Didn’t he cherish her like a treasure?
How had this man become so cold so quickly?
Although she also disliked Shen Jiangqing, the damnable white lotus, Li Lingyang annoyed her even more.
A dog of a man who didn’t cherish what he had once he had it.
Hearing Shen Jiangqing leave, Ning Yichu immediately pushed open the closet door and came out.
The air inside was stuffy, making her feels suffocated.
Without a word, she picked up her phone and bag and got ready to leave.
As she passed by him, Li Lingyang grabbed her wrist, his eyes deep and serious, “Breakfast is on the table, eat before you go.”
“President Li, I don’t know what you think about infidelity, but I find it disgusting. Please reserve your care for the woman you should be concerned about, and stop keeping the red flag at home flying while the colorful flags flutter outside!”
Ning Yichu said sarcastically, highly annoyed, and walked away.
Shen Jiangqing’s hangover soup was already prepared—how was that just passing by?
Clearly, he hadn’t come home last night, so she ran over first thing in the morning to confront him!
He even casually asked her to have breakfast?
Ning Yichu burst out of the mansion before daring to turn on her mobile phone.
There indeed were countless missed calls and messages.
Other than for Ningning, they were all from Fan YuKe.
Ning Yichu first called Fan YuKe,
who had just woken up from a hangover, her head pounding terribly, not remembering anything from last night.
Ning Yichu made sure she was also safe, compared their stories, and then called Ningning.
“Sorry, baby, mommy got the job, and last night I was out eating with your godmother, and then we drank too much. Were you scared being alone at home?” Upon hearing her beloved daughter’s voice, she kept apologizing.
“Big brother came home to stay with me, Ningning wasn’t scared.”
The milky voice of Ningning came through, stunning Ning Yichu.
“Chen Bao came home last night?”
Ningning spoke with a dumbfounded tone, “I couldn’t get through to you or godmother’s phone, and I didn’t want to be alone at home, so I told brother.”
Ning Yichu instantly gasped, “Put your brother on the phone.”
Rustling sounds came from the receiver, followed by Chen Bao’s cool voice, “Mommy.”
“Did you, in the middle of the night, run home from the orphanage all by yourself? How could you be so bold? What if you encountered bad people? My phone was not reachable; if something had happened, no one could have saved you in time!” Ning Yichu said, both regretful and frightened.
Last time they went to extort Li Lingyang was already a stretch, though it was broad daylight and the risk was smaller.
In Junyue Mansion, Chen Bao swayed his short legs, sitting on the sofa, quietly listening to his mother’s scolding, waiting for her to finish panicking before saying, “I took a photo of the taxi driver and the license plate for Ningning. If she couldn’t reach me within half an hour, she would call the police.”
Ning Yichu realized she had seriously underestimated the twins!
Compared to her, not waiting for the police to arrive but going to find Fan YuKe, she felt more foolish.
“Alright, it’s also my fault for not being able to return on time last night and leaving Ningning unattended at home.”
Chen Bao blinked his big eyes, looking innocently guileless, not at all mentioning his and Ningning’s next plan, but asking, “Mommy, when are you coming back?”
“Right away.”
“Okay, see you in a bit.”
“Mm-hmm.”
After hanging up the phone, Ning Yichu thought about buying some breakfast nearby to bring back for her two babies.
She was about to cross the street when suddenly a sharp female voice came from behind, “Ning Yichu, is that really you?!”
Ning Yichu froze, the voice was too familiar; she had just heard it.
Turning around, she indeed saw a face full of resentment.
Shen Jiangqing was glaring at Ning Yichu.
She wore a high-end Chanel-style dress, her long hair slightly messy, unpainted, giving her a naturally beautiful appearance.

“The dress you’re wearing is limited edition, not everyone can buy it even with money, how do you have it? And you came out of the hotel, did you stay here last night?”
Shen Jiangqing originally didn’t feel like just walking away, so she hid in a dark place and waited for a while, and sure enough, she caught a sneaky woman!
At first glance, it was Ning Yichu!
Almost subconsciously, she linked Ning Yichu’s overnight absence to Li Lingyang.
