My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 755: The 673rd Truth

"It’s probably him. Why else would he invest fifty million without batting an eye and have the scenes reshot? There’s definitely something fishy between them."

The words reached Hua Tiantian’s ears, tightly gripping her heart.

She gave it some serious thought and realized many things were more complicated than she imagined. Only after the sound of footsteps outside faded further and further did she awkwardly step out.

"Were the things they talked about just now all true? The rumors online about me and Meng Yan..."

She didn’t know the specifics of the rumors online. What mattered now was her urgent desire to check her phone and find out for herself, sparing her from being a target of sneers and gossip behind her back.

Huang Shan had already been handling this matter cautiously, but she hadn’t expected that Li Li would still find out. She answered Li Li’s call, only to hear him say two sentences before abruptly hanging up.

The first sentence was, "I already know about Hua Tiantian’s gossip."

The second sentence was, "Handle it well."

After hearing these words, Huang Shan felt a significant blow within her.

"Li Li actually doesn’t care. Why doesn’t he care? Shouldn’t he scold me, get angry at me?"

Huang Shan muttered to herself, completely baffled by why Li Li had gone from threatening her to suddenly being so calm. The two sentences he spoke felt totally detached, as though speaking to a stranger, leaving her deeply uncomfortable.

"I’d rather he lose his temper at me than hear him talking in such a detached tone."

She had thought that, at the very least, she occupied a tiny place in his heart. Even though he was a man who flitted among flowers, fickle and indifferent toward women, Huang Shan still couldn’t help but care deeply about him and even wanted to learn more about him.

The assistant pushed the door open and entered, carrying freshly brewed coffee.

"Sister Shan, your coffee."

Huang Shan remained motionless, her vacant gaze fixed on the ceiling. She wrestled with anxiety over why Li Li ignored her completely as though she didn’t exist.

"Sister Shan, are you okay?"

The assistant’s words snapped Huang Shan back to reality. She glanced at the freshly brewed coffee placed in front of her and couldn’t help blurting out, "Yu, do you know what Li Li’s been busy with?"

"I don’t know... But Mr. Li’s whereabouts should be online somewhere."

As she spoke, the assistant pulled out her phone and carefully searched online. In no time, she found the latest news about Li Li.

"The online reports might not be entirely accurate. It’s better if you don’t look," she advised.

Suddenly, Huang Shan realized she had been valuing Li Li too much. Since she meant so little to him, what was the point of caring unilaterally?

"I found something...but Sister Shan, maybe drink your coffee first."

Upon seeing the images, the assistant quickly changed the topic.

"What is it?"

Huang Shan noticed the assistant’s expression and, without thinking, snatched her phone. She saw an article about Li Li accompanied by two photos. Enlarging them, she was stunned to find the unfamiliar woman cozying up to Li Li looked remarkably like herself.

Instinctively touching her cheek, she felt a profound shock as she realized something.

Her hand began to tremble. The phone fell to the floor with a crisp sound. The assistant hurried to pick it up but heard Huang Shan’s disappointed voice.

"So, all he ever liked was a similar face."

Huang Shan muttered to herself, an empty sense of loss welling up from deep within her. To her, it was all far colder and more heartbreaking than she had imagined. She couldn’t believe Li Li was the kind of person capable of being with different women just for a resemblance.

"Men—all they do is love one and move on to the next. I really thought he might be different."
