Chapter 255: Seeing Sheng Yu Kiss That Woman

Late at night, the moonlight is like water.

On the terrace, Shen Yijing poured a glass of red wine, walked behind the man sitting in the chair, reached out a hand to hook the man's neck, brought the wine glass around to the front, and handed it to his lips.

The man gave a low laugh and took a sip.

"You still want to kill Zhu Yuan?"

Shen Yijing finished the rest of the red wine, set the glass aside, and asked.

"If I don't kill her, should I wait for Sheng Yu to have a few children with her and inherit the Sheng Corporation and the Yu Family?"

Shen Yijing hummed dismissively: "Then why didn't you just kill Sheng Yu back then? Wouldn't that have been easier? That way our child would have become Sheng Hongyao's only heir, and we wouldn't have had to plot for so many years."

"What do you know? Back then, when Sheng Yu and Yu Lan were kidnapped, if I had killed Sheng Yu as well, Sheng Hongyao would have been left without a son. His brothers would have united to oppose him, a Chairman without an heir. And at that time, there was no movement in your belly yet. It would have been very difficult for Sheng Hongyao to hold onto that position, which is why I had to keep Sheng Yu alive. Later, Sheng Yu always had the old man protecting him from behind, so it wasn't easy for me to make a move on him."

Speaking of this, a cold and sharp expression flashed across the man's face, forming a stark contrast to his seemingly kind and benevolent appearance.

He lit a cigarette, the flame of the lighter flickering against his profile.

Flicking the lighter away, he took a drag of the cigarette.

"It was hard enough waiting for the old man to die, and then Sheng Yu became the president of the Sheng Group, making it even harder to kill him. But fortunately, we let the father-son relationship between Sheng Hongyao and Sheng Yu hit rock bottom and turned them into enemies; Sheng Hongyao can be considered a decent helper."

Thinking of Sheng Yu's current ability and power, Shen Yijing said worriedly: "The current Sheng Yu can be said to be covering the sky with one hand in Jingdu City, and Sheng Hongyao is already half-dead after his car accident..."

The man gave a scoff and interrupted her worry, "Do you really think Sheng Hongyao spent all those years as the head of the Sheng Family and Chairman of the Sheng Group for nothing? Having managed the group and the Sheng Family for so many years, why are you still naive enough to think he has no ability?"

"Besides..."

Shen Yijing looked at the man's meaningful expression, understood something, gave a low laugh, and kneaded the man's shoulders, "That's true. Sheng Hongyao orchestrated such a grand play, and it wasn't just so the entire group wouldn't be under his control. How could he swallow this insult?"

"But we can't just sit here. In case things on Sheng Hongyao's side don't go as we expected, if Sheng Yu stays with Zhu Yuan, there will be children sooner or later. It would be better to kill her early."

"Sheng Yu is just like his mother, a lovesick fool. One for a man, one for a woman, both stubborn. I know Sheng Yu too well. If Zhu Yuan dies, Sheng Yu won't look for anyone else; he might even commit suicide for love."

Upon hearing that last sentence, Shen Yijing's heart trembled uncontrollably.

Can someone really love another to this extent?

But soon, her calmness suppressed that flicker of unrest.

"Are you sure that person is Zhu Yuan?" The man flicked the ash from his cigarette.

Shen Yijing affirmed: "The eyes we sent out spent a great deal of effort to finally see Sheng Yu grabbing a woman and kissing her forcefully in that villa. You said it yourself, he is a devoted lover; besides Zhu Yuan, who else would he touch?"

The man narrowed his eyes; if that's the case, it really is Zhu Yuan.

It is indeed as Shen Yijing said; besides Zhu Yuan, which woman could make Sheng Yu lose control like this?

He curled his lips coldly, took hold of Shen Yijing's hand, and kissed the back of it, "Sheng Yu will likely be extra cautious these next two days. Let's wait a few days before making a move."

A dark cloud obscured the moon.

The man's hand rested on the armrest of the chair, and the burning cigarette quietly sent up a pale blue smoke.

A private jet landed at the Fengcheng Airport.

At night, Sheng Yu got off the plane and sat into a black Bentley.

The car drove toward the wealthy district of Fengcheng.

Not far away, two cars were parked near the wealthy district, and the people inside were staring intently at the place where the black Bentley had driven in.

Before long, a white sedan drove out from another direction, successfully shaking off the people monitoring from those cars.

"It seems Sheng Yu didn't discover that we were monitoring him."

The person in the car muttered.

Otherwise, why would he still be using the same method to shake off followers as before?

Shen Yijing lifted her sunglasses slightly, "That's hard to say. Sheng Yu has many tricks up his sleeve. Be careful that he isn't baiting us."

The white sedan drove out of the wealthy district.

After circling half the city, it finally drove into a villa area.

The car stopped in the courtyard of a villa with the lights on.

The tall and long-legged Sheng Yu stepped out of the car, his expression cold and detached.

He suddenly stopped in his tracks, glanced at the swing in the courtyard swaying gently in the wind, and pressed his thin lips together.

He withdrew his gaze and walked toward the villa's entrance.

The person inside must have heard the engine, as the door opened from the inside just as Sheng Yu walked over.

In a car hidden in the darkness in the distance, Shen Yijing held binoculars, staring at Sheng Yu with a cold expression.

Neither she nor he trusted others to handle this.

She had to personally confirm whether the person Sheng Yu came to see was indeed Zhu Yuan.

When the villa door opened, she saw that the person who opened it was someone who looked like a nanny.

Sheng Yu said something to her, and the nanny shook her head.

Sheng Yu entered the house, and the nanny closed the door.

Shen Yijing aimed the lens of the binoculars at the room on the second floor of the villa where the lights were on.

That should be where Zhu Yuan lived.

The room's window was covered by a sheer, slightly translucent curtain.

Not long after, she indeed saw a slender figure appear behind the curtain; judging by the silhouette, it was undoubtedly a woman.

She reached out her hand as if to open the window.

The next instant, a tall figure chased to the window—it was a man—and he pulled the woman into his arms.

The two had quite a dispute.

The woman struggled hard to break free from the man's hand, and the man turned to chase after the woman's pace.

Shen Yijing sneered; it seems the relationship between Zhu Yuan and Sheng Yu has not yet returned to how it was.

That makes sense; Zhu Yuan was so heartless as to abort the child, and a woman so resolute would never easily forgive Sheng Yu.

Before long, someone beside her reminded her: "Sister Yijing, there's movement by the floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor!"

Sure enough, when Shen Yijing turned the camera, a woman with a slender back appeared near the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window, and the moment Sheng Yu caught up to her, she turned and walked toward the window.

Seeing that face, Shen Yijing was stunned.

It really was Zhu Yuan.

Yet, for just a fleeting moment, Shen Yijing saw Zhu Yuan being pulled into Sheng Yu's arms, him gripping her chin and lowering his head to kiss her.

Zhu Yuan seemed to be struggling, but with her body restrained by Sheng Yu, it wasn't long before she was kissed until she went limp all over.

Watching this scene, Shen Yijing curled her lips meaningfully, "Zhu Yuan, this time, you won't be so lucky."

Zhu Yuan looked at him, her eyes calm and without a single ripple.
