The Devil who devoured Snow White - Chapter 289

Lu Mengjie’s words were like daggers that stabbed right through his chest. He knew what she meant. She was already thinking about whether or not to do it.

She didn’t have the strength to argue with him anymore so before Yong Liwei could even say another word, she pivoted and left the room. This time, her husband didn’t stop her.

Lu Mengjie left the building with a pained look on her face. She never really caught Yong Liwei with Cecilia but she had enough evidence to tell that something really happened between them.

“Zhizhu, have you met the women Yong Liwei had spent time with in the past?” She couldn’t help but ask Spider who was seated at the driver’s seat of the car.

“Well, yes… I had.” He admitted. Worrying that his Lady Boss might end up becoming jealous, he quickly added, “But you don’t have to worry about them, Madam. I assure you, Boss had never loved them at all! You’re different from them. I never saw him make an effort for any of them.”

Somehow, Spider’s words worked like magic. It was able to make Lu Mengjie feel relieved even if it was just a little bit. Despite that, she continued to inquire. “How about Cecilia Bai? Do you know her?”

Lu Mengjie was observing Spider when she mentioned the name and through the rearview mirror, she saw how the smile on his face became stiff.

“You know her?” She asked once again.

“Yes…” he trailed off.

“Was she one of Liwei’s women?”

Spider was quiet for a few seconds as if he was reluctant to answer her.

“Tell me, Zhizhu.” She ordered.

The man sighed before finally confessing the truth to her. “She is… his ex. His first girlfriend. She is also the first woman that my boss had offered his contract to.”

She was suddenly reminded of what Yong Liwei had told her the other night. He mentioned it to her. He also told her that he never loved his first girlfriend at all.

“Do you know anything else about how their relationship went?” She continued to inquire.

“Instead of a relationship, it was more like business in our eyes. Just like others, Mr. Yong had treated her indifferently even if she was his girlfriend. It was Ms. Cecil who broke up with him and ended the contract before she left for another country.”

“Had Liwei slept with other women while they were in a relationship?’

“Yes. Although Mr. Yong was open to it. He would usually call Ms. Cecil whenever he was about to sleep with another woman. He had not hidden it from her and Ms. Cecil didn’t complain even if she didn’t like it since she knew that it was how he worked to those girls.”

Lu Mengjie didn’t expect that Yong Liwei was such a bastard and a jerk back then. How could he sleep with other women when he was in a relationship?

She knew that she shouldn’t pity Cecilia but she couldn’t help it. Who would want their man to spend the night with other women? No one would!

“Through those women, he was able to gain the information he needed. Those women were his spies and they only wanted one thing in return from him. It was to have at least one night with him. You don’t have to worry about Mr. Yong, madam. He had already ended all contracts with other women. He will never sleep with others at all.”

Spider sounded so sure of it that Lu Mengjie couldn’t help but doubt it.

“What if he had cheated on me with another woman?” She couldn’t help but ask. She was worried. Was he going to sleep with someone else because she was not good enough?

“I know Mr. Yong, madam. He loves you. I’m sure that he will never cheat on you. If he was to have sex with another woman, he would surely give you a call and ask for your permission!”

“…” What kind of man would ask his wife for a permission to cheat? Was he out of his mind?

Lu Mengjie sighed. She massaged the bridge of her nose as she tried to think things through. She was already having a hard time from all the heartache she had experienced earlier.

“I need you to trust me, Mengjie.” Yong Liwei’s voice rang in her ears.

Trust him…? Should she believe his words? What if there was more to it than what meets the eye?

“I don’t care if the ‘proof’ will even involve you discovering me naked in her bed. The question I’m asking is if you believe I had sex with her. That is if you believe I  will Do you think I could?” Yong Liwei’s words stabbed right in her chest.

Should she blindly trust him for the words he told her? But what if he was just finding a way out just so he could hide his dirt? He was a manipulative man, to begin with.

Even if it was for work purposes, she would never allow him to sleep with anyone. She was different from Cecilia. It was betrayal if he did so. She would not tolerate such betrayal at all.

“Mr. Yong will never cheat on you, madam.” Spider’s voice snapped her out of her trance.

Lu Mengjie remained silent and instead, she diverted the topic. “I want to pass somewhere.”

She told him the address of the place she wanted to visit that was just nearby the school she had gone to during grade school.

The car stopped on the side of the road and Lu Mengjie got out of the car. She looked at the playground before her.

It was just how she remembered it. It was the same playground in her dreams and memories except for this time, the place wasn’t empty. A few children were playing while their parents sat on the benches and chatted with each other.

“It’s still the same as ever,” she mumbled softly under her breath.
