CHAPTER 42

"Forget her?" Duan Tian asked, furrowing his brows the more.

He could not understand Li Xiu. Wasn't she the one that had a headache because she did not know where her sister was? So why now was she acting this way?

"Yes, father is not coming again until further notice. We are free."

"Who is that?" Ding Jiaying mouthed to her daughter.

"Duan Tian," she mouthed back and got up, leaving where her mother was so she could speak to him well.

"Oh!" He could hear the excitement in her voice. He knew things were better but for some reason, he wasn't feeling as excited.

"Yes. Leave Li Jing, she cannot hide from us. I would think of a way to deal with her later. For today, we can just celebrate now that the tension is off. Come on over to your place. I would be waiting on your bed in your favourite sexy lingerie. I need some loving to get the stress away."

"Okay, sweetheart. Let me handle some work first. I would be home in an hour to attend to your every need."

He cut the call and his gaze went back to Li Jing. Although he knew he should ignore her, but seeing her here to pick a man's clothing got his curiosity piqued.

'So it was true, Li Jing really was sleeping around. That would explain her being here to buy men's clothes. What a crazy whore. I was stupid to believe and fall for her innocent act.'

Duan Tian watched her pay for the things she bought and then went out the store with her grocery bags.

Due to the anticipated load she was going to carry, she asked Yin Lifen to help her take her box of personal things home. Yin Lifen agreed and took it from her.

Right now she had just her grocery bags to worry about.

"Mr Duan," the male attendant called again.

"Sorry. Something important came up. Let us continue with this tomorrow." Not waiting for the boy's reply, he dashed off towards the entrance and saw Li Jing board a taxi.

"Yes, sir."

Quickly, he went to his car and followed after the taxi. 'This time, I would see the idiot you cheated on me with.' Duan Tian thought as he rode on.

Meanwhile, Ye Cheng had gotten the files and decided to take a break before continuing from where he stopped. It was already 4 pm and Li Jing was not yet back.

Just as he left the room, he heard a car pull over somewhere close to where the house was. Quickly, Ye Cheng went to the window of the living room, to see who it was.

On getting there, he could not see anyone. There was no car in sight or anybody.

'That is strange, I heard the sound of a car even though it was faint.'

He decided to leave, thinking it was his imagination but the moment he was half way into the living room, Ye Cheng heard footsteps at the front and immediately his sixth sense kicked in.

'Did they find me? But how could they? She covered our tracks very well.' Ye Cheng thought.

Not wasting any more time, he dashed to the side of the door as he could see the shadow of someone moving to the side of the house where the windows were and then moving back towards the door.

Trying not to be seen, he leaned against the wall close to the door, with his back pressed hard on it. Unfortunately, from the position he was in, he could not see the person who was outside.

Soon the footsteps of the person came to a stop in front of the door. Ye Cheng turned so he was now face to face with the door and held the handle.

He had planned on taking the person by surprise when they pushed open the door.

One!

Two!

Three!

Pull!

As soon as he felt the doorknob turn, he pulled on it with all his might as well, opening the door wide and ready to punch whoever it was but suddenly stopped when his eyes landed on the person and heard a familiar scream.

"Ahhhh!!"
