Chapter 49: Shi Yuke Impersonates Yingzi
Shi Yuke: "How could he give you money? How much is inside?"
Achou mocked: "Are you just stuffed from eating too much and have nothing to do, or are you naturally fond of meddling in other people's business? I see you're very interested in other people's affairs; if you have this much free time, you'd better worry about yourself."
After finishing, she strode forward, and Shi Yuke trotted along, barely keeping up.
Returning to the Villa, Achou locked herself in her room and ignored her further.
Shi Yuke didn't need her to pay attention; she returned to her room and sent a WeChat message to Jian Yining to snitch.
She had seen it when Sheng Hanyu gave the card, and she had also heard him say there was five hundred thousand in it.
Sheng Hanyu was the Eldest Young Master of the Sheng Family, high and mighty, while Achou was just Jian Yining's servant, whose monthly salary was three thousand at most; this money was enough for her to earn for over a decade, so why would he give her so much?
Shi Yuke unleashed her full imagination, doing her best to smear Achou, saying she was disloyal, betraying Jian Yining, stealing things from the Villa...
The WeChat message had been sent for a long time, but there was no movement from Jian Yining.
Shi Yuke felt a bit uneasy; why was there no response?
Did he not see it?
So she called him, and Jian Yining answered, but his tone was much colder: "Miss Shi, it is indeed inconvenient for you to stay at my place; please move out today."
……
"A Ning, did Achou say something to you? Listen to me..."
"Beep, beep, beep—"
The other party didn't wait for her to finish before hanging up the phone.
She was depressed to the extreme; clearly, the one who did something wrong and was suspicious should be Achou, yet Jian Yining trusted that woman implicitly and wanted to kick her out.
And there was Sheng Hanyu, who wouldn't talk to her but chatted heatedly with that ugly woman and even gave her money!
Shi Yuke was jealous and unwilling to accept this.
That woman was inferior to her in every way; why should a good man be willing to be good to an ugly woman, yet not even believe her own words?
She hardened her heart; she couldn't leave, she had to wait for Jian Yining to come and clarify things in person.
……
Jian Yining grabbed his coat from the sofa and walked out of the room; Lady Jian met her son in the living room and asked curiously: "Where are you going? Didn't you say you would accompany us to see a play tonight?"
"I'm going out for a moment and will be back soon; it won't delay accompanying you and Dad to the play."
Before the words had faded, he had already left the house.
The car stopped at the entrance, and Jian Yining got out, hurried upstairs, and knocked on Achou's door: "Open the door, it's me."
The door opened, and after he went in, the door closed again quickly.
The door diagonally opposite opened a tiny crack, and Shi Yuke tiptoed out of her room and went to Achou's door to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Jian Yining: "You went to the opposite side?"
Achou: "Don't mention it, it's all that troublesome woman Shi Yuke; she wanted to go to the opposite side to get something her sister had used as a keepsake. When Shi Youxuan married over, she had nothing; if she wants a keepsake, there are plenty at her home, why insist on coming here to get one?"
"You didn't see it; she smiled so brightly at Sheng Hanyu just now, her two eyes flashing like she was trying to hook his soul, but it's a pity Sheng Hanyu is Xiazi and can't see, hahahahaha..."
Achou's voice didn't sound like her usual raspy voice; it was very pleasant... and very familiar!
But Shi Yuke didn't think of Shi Youxuan, after all, the fool used to talk to her like a child, with a child's accent.
She had never heard her speak normally.
Jian Yining: "Sheng Hanyu isn't Xiazi; he's faking it."
Achou: "You saw that too?"
Jian Yining: "What do you mean 'you saw that too'? That means you knew, right? Yingzi, you've gone too far; you actually knew and didn't tell me, you and Sheng Hanyu actually have secrets..."
Jian Yining was strongly dissatisfied, and his voice grew louder unconsciously.
Achou placed her index finger on her lips to make a shushing gesture, then pointed outside the door, signaling to be careful not to be heard by Shi Yuke.
Yet the two of them never imagined that Shi Yuke was currently pressed against the door eavesdropping!
"Why are you shouting? I was just about to tell you when you discovered it yourself; why haven't you said why you came back?"
Jian Yining told her about Shi Yuke snitching, and Achou didn't hide anything either, describing how Sheng Hanyu gave her the bank card and asked her to call him if she discovered Yingzi.
She even took out the card and handed it to Jian Yining: "Laomao, take the money out and put it into the company's public account; we don't need to return this money to him, we can take it with a clear conscience. Asking me to report myself, just thinking about it makes me want to laugh..."
And so the two laughed wantonly, very happily!
Shi Yuke left quietly.
……
Sheng Hanyu received a message from an unknown number: If you want to know who Yingzi is, come to room 1820 of the Prince Hotel; I'm waiting for you here.
Prince Hotel, Presidential Suite 1820.
Shi Yuke took a comfortable bath, washed until she was fragrant, applied exquisite makeup, and wore a fire-red tight-fitting short skirt, looking at herself in the mirror from left to right, very satisfied no matter how she looked.
On the dining table sat a silver candelabra, and several white candles on it emitted a soft, warm light.
Fire-red roses, amber-colored red wine, and exquisite dishes in delicate tableware; everything was prepared for the moment to come.
Shi Yuke prepared to take Sheng Hanyu down in one fell swoop this time.
One couldn't be "reserved" with Sheng Hanyu like one was with Jian Yining; Shi Yuke knew well that every man was different, and the way to capture a man had to be different too.
Her father had gone to make a scene several times, but Sheng Hanyu hadn't done anything to him, which showed he had a strong sense of guilt toward the fool, and even more so that he was a responsible man.
These few days happened to be her fertile period; as long as she and Sheng Hanyu had relations, it would be easy to get pregnant, and then using the child as an excuse to marry into the Sheng Family would be a matter of course.
Even if she couldn't get pregnant, she wasn't afraid; she could fake a pregnancy. Anyway, she was determined to marry Sheng Hanyu.
Sheng Yukai was too utilitarian and was the same kind of person as her, and Jian Yining liked that ugly woman, so after weighing it, Shi Yuke's psychological balance still tilted toward Sheng Hanyu.
"Ding-dong—"
The doorbell rang just as she was ready; she hurriedly picked up the golden half-mask on the table and put it on. The mask was very glamorous and also very atmospheric!
Through the peephole, only Sheng Hanyu was at the door, and he hadn't brought any bodyguards.
Shi Yuke was even more delighted; she tugged at her dress, pulling it downward, which made the already deep V-neckline plunge even further, revealing a clear cleavage.
The door opened a crack, and Shi Yuke said softly, "Come in."
There was a scent of perfume in the room, somewhat heavy, heavy enough to be choking.
Sheng Hanyu couldn't help but frown: "Where is Yingzi?"
"Far away in the horizon, yet right before your eyes." The coquettish voice was filled with thick temptation.
Consequently, he frowned even deeper and bluntly exposed her: "You are not her."
Shi Yuke was a little disappointed; when she had eavesdropped, Achou said that Sheng Hanyu had never seen what Yingzi looked like, so she had thought she could take advantage of the loophole, but it hadn't worked.
"Have you seen what Yingzi looks like?" Shi Yuke leaned closer; her snow-white skin was right before his eyes, and if he were willing, he could see everything at a glance.
Sheng Hanyu pushed her aside with one hand: "Move." Then he turned and walked toward the outside.
"Wait, I was just joking with you earlier; I am not Yingzi, but I know where Yingzi is." This sentence from Shi Yuke worked, and Sheng Hanyu stopped.
He turned back around: "Where is she?"
Shi Yuke smiled sweetly and pursed her red lips: "Today is my birthday; if you have a meal with me, I'll tell you once we're finished."
As she spoke, she walked to the table and poured red wine into two stemmed glasses.
Deep down, Sheng Hanyu still held a trace of doubt as to whether Yingzi was Jian Yixin; unless he saw with his own eyes and confirmed that Yingzi was someone else, he would not give up.
Sheng Hanyu sat opposite her, and Shi Yuke asked coquettishly: "Mr. Sheng, how did you guess that I am not Yingzi? Perhaps your judgment is wrong, you never know!"
