Chapter 1287: Brewing a Hidden Plot!

~7 min read 1,357 words

He Yu glanced at the window upstairs where the lights were on and discovered a silhouette standing there; he knew it was Shen Minghan watching him.

In fact, Shen Minghan had always been in contact with him.

Shen Mingcheng would often have him deliver things to Shen Minghan.

If Shen Minghan needed a car, Shen Mingcheng would also have him be responsible for driving her.

If not for her special status, He Yu would have to admit that Shen Minghan was a quite charming woman.

A good, affluent living environment made Shen Minghan appear very young, both physically and internally.

Shen Minghan always spoke slowly, giving people a very tranquil feeling.

He Yu drove the car away.

Only then did Shen Minghan close the window.

Her conversation with He Yu today was not a whim; in fact, she had felt an attraction toward He Yu long ago.

He Yu was very young, and his whole body radiated the hormones of a young man.

He and her husband were two completely different types of people.

He Yu represented primal power!

He Haiyang, on the other hand, represented power and fame!

Shen Minghan walked into the bathroom, and without taking off her clothes, she turned on the shower directly; the icy water flowed from above, and she couldn't help but shiver.

About three minutes later, Shen Minghan had completely calmed down.

She knew she could not treat this matter so passively.

Her father had already passed away.

All the connections and resources of the Shen Family rested on He Haiyang; if she divorced He Haiyang, the Shen Family would completely withdraw from the power stage of Huai Province.

As for her younger brother, his business empire had only just started to improve and required He Haiyang's support at the Government level; for her brother's career, she had to endure it silently.

The most important point was, if they divorced, what would happen to their son, Tongtong?

Tongtong was about to take the college entrance exam, and at this time, he must be given a stable family environment.

After showering, Shen Minghan walked into the room and turned on her phone.

More than a dozen text messages popped up quickly.

"Wife, I'm sorry."

"I was drunk! That young girl seduced me."

"I really didn't take that step; you arrived at the critical moment!"

"Please give me another chance!"

"Please reply to my text message after you turn on your phone."

Shen Minghan took a deep breath and dialed the number.

He Haiyang was sitting on the sofa, having been in a state of panic and collapse, so when he saw the phone screen light up, he was extremely excited.

"Wife, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"

Shen Minghan said softly, "It's good that you know you were wrong. Since the matter has already happened, then accept it calmly."

He Haiyang said urgently, "Tell me, what do you need me to do? I will definitely be able to do it."

Shen Minghan paused, her tone softening, "Haiyang, it has been twenty years since we met and married. You have always been very good to me, loyal to our marriage, and very caring toward my relatives. Although you committed a principled error, I think about it carefully, and all men make such mistakes. If I were to divorce you because of your mistake, that would be a denial of my previous twenty years of marriage; how many twenty years does a woman have?"

He Haiyang said painfully, "I'm the one who ruined everything!"

Shen Minghan said softly, "I have no way to say I forgive you for the time being; pain needs time to be eased. However, please rest assured, I will not divorce, nor will I hold a grudge against you because of this."

Hearing Shen Minghan say this, He Haiyang felt even more self-reproach, "Okay, I understand what you mean. I will give you time and space."

She hung up He Haiyang's call.

Shen Minghan's gaze slowly became firm.

Her brother was right; she shouldn't have pierced this layer of window paper.

To be kept in the dark and be a heartless person—isn't that a kind of happiness?

Although she had accepted this fact, this matter would be remembered in her heart forever, becoming a knot in the hearts of both her and her husband.

……

The next morning, when Tang Ye was running, his phone rang.

Tang Ye wore earphones, walked under a tree, and answered the call while doing stretches.

"Old Wan, calling me so early, did you run into something?"

Wan Ming said, "Last night I received intelligence that when He Haiyang was messing around with the nanny at his residence, he was caught red-handed by his wife. I didn't expect He Haiyang to be less cautious than imagined!"

Tang Ye said in surprise, "He Haiyang has always maintained a persona of being particularly doting on his wife. I didn't expect him to be a hypocrite. However, this matter alone is not enough to topple him."

Wan Ming nodded slightly, "I have had my informants continuously collecting evidence of Shen Mingcheng's illegal activities, but he is extremely cautious, and I haven't been able to find any intelligence for the time being."

Tang Ye nodded, "Shen Mingcheng has been to prison once; after that experience, he is very cautious in his actions. You should tell your informants to protect themselves well."

Wan Ming reminded him, "Shen Mingcheng recently found Du Xi's prenatal check-up records; he seems to be brewing some kind of Hidden Plot. You must be very careful."

Tang Ye was stunned for a moment, his eyes revealing a cold look, "Thank you for the reminder."

Hanging up the phone, Tang Ye took off his earphones.

He thought to himself, if Shen Mingcheng dared to do anything to Du Xi, he would absolutely not spare him.

……

After Shen Mingcheng woke up, he glanced at his phone and discovered that Shen Minghan had left him a message.

He hurriedly dialed back, "Sister, what happened last night?"

Shen Minghan choked with sobs, "Mingcheng, I regret it very much now; I should have listened to you. I shouldn't have gone to find your brother-in-law."

Shen Mingcheng was greatly shocked; when he and He Haiyang were eating last night, he had already noticed that He Haiyang and Wu Lie were exchanging glances and acting strangely.

Yesterday I ate snake soup, that stuff is especially nourishing and very prone to causing a slip-up; if Shen Minghan rushed over at a time like this, wouldn't that be catching them in the act?

He feigned ignorance, "What's wrong with brother-in-law? Has he really done something to wrong you?"

Shen Minghan nodded, "Yes, I saw him embracing that Xiaowu."

Shen Mingcheng said furiously, "Damn it, no wonder I felt Xiaowu's gaze toward brother-in-law wasn't right! Don't worry, I will warn Xiaowu to stay far away from my brother-in-law."

Shen Minghan sighed, "Mingcheng, you are a man, you understand a man's psychology very well. Is your brother-in-law tired of me?"

Shen Mingcheng shook his head and comforted her, "Brother-in-law is such an outstanding man, there must be many people circling around him. Brother-in-law is just looking for some novelty for a moment. He is a rational person and knows his limits."

Shen Minghan said, "Rest assured, I won't divorce him. You were right about what you said to me before; I shouldn't have had any suspicious thoughts."

Shen Mingcheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister, this matter has caused you to suffer a grievance. For the sake of the family, for the sake of Tongtong, you must endure it!"

Shen Minghan gave a hum of agreement, "Mingcheng, your brother-in-law has changed and is unreliable; from now on, sister can only trust you."

Hearing these words from Shen Minghan, Shen Mingcheng felt a fire of rage burning in his heart.

He hated He Haiyang for betraying his sister.

However, He Haiyang was too important to his path of revenge.

If one does not endure small things, one will spoil great plans...

"Sister, sooner or later, I will vent this pent-up anger for you!"
