CHAPTER 426: CHAPTER 172: AMBIGUOUS NIGHT

"Because he used to always tell me he was hooking up with some female star in hotels, and the worst time, he directly took me to see a villa he bought for his mistress, it was just a revenge," Su Ziceng said dissatisfiedly, although she no longer cares about these things now, a belated revenge is still better than none.

Pello’s expression worsened again, "You’re using me as a tool for revenge?" His grip tightened, making Su Ziceng’s face even redder.

"I won’t do it again next time," Su Ziceng quickly raised her hand and swore.

"There won’t be a next time. After this trip back, apart from confronting him and clarifying everything, don’t see him again," Pello said authoritatively, not waiting for Su Ziceng to react before he threw her onto the bed.

Su Ziceng thought he was going to do something and quickly clutched the blanket tighter, as she was still a "married woman."

"You sleep on the bed, I’ll sleep on the sofa," Pello didn’t fancy spending the night hugging the stiff Su Ziceng, he resigned himself to squeeze onto the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

After a layover, Su Ziceng completed this "fruitless" trip to Europe. Strictly speaking, this business trip was profoundly rewarding, as she at least gained her own sincerity.

When she returned to the Su Family, the house was empty, even the child had been taken to Mrs. Yan’s house. After putting away her luggage, she learned from the butler that Su Qingzhang and Chang Mei had gone to attend a signing banquet.

"What signing banquet?" Su Ziceng felt something was off.

"The signing banquet between the Su and Wen families for the building expansion project," the butler replied truthfully, noting that Madam’s tone of inquiry had changed slightly since returning, making it impossible not to spill the beans.

"Dad has already signed a new expansion project, how could it be so quick?" Su Ziceng tried to contact Su Qingzhang immediately, but his phone was unanswered, as was Chang Mei’s.

"Did Yan Wuxu or Chang Chi accompany them?" It was already nine o’clock in the evening, it might be too late to stop anything, but she needed to get in touch with at least one of them, maybe there would be a turnaround.

"The lady left shortly after the master went out, she said she didn’t want to attend any banquet. Miss Xiao Chi has already moved out," replied the butler.

"So both of them are not around, wait, you said Chang Chi moved out, why did she move out?" The old Chang Chi would never want to leave the Su Mansion forever, now surprisingly she has taken the initiative to move out.

"Secretary Chang and the master were furious, I heard that she followed a man named Shang Yin. The master said that man is associated with the underworld, and scolded Secretary Chang for not disciplining his daughter well," the butler recalled the evening Chang Chi moved out, it was the first time in years he saw the master so enraged, even more so than he ever had been with the young Miss.

With Chang Chi gone, Su Ziceng should have been very pleased, but she felt no joy at all. The room felt stifling, so Su Ziceng went to the garden. In the more than a month she was gone, Yan Wuxu had renovated it, replacing the once serene fountain with a more flamboyant musical fountain. The fountain shot water columns unevenly as people moved around.

Su Ziceng walked a few steps, brooding, when she suddenly heard angry curses coming from outside.

It was Yan Wuxu’s voice, she was drunk, being supported by a security guard, incessantly cursing, "You heartless man, how dare you fool around with other women behind my back, If there’s another time, I’ll make sure you end up miserably." Yan Wuxu’s high heels stepped on the security guard’s foot, causing him to cry out in pain.

Yet, Yan Wuxu didn’t let go, instead, she stomped a few more times on that guard’s foot, wishing she could treat this man as if he was Fei Qing, crushing his feet completely. Tonight, she finally managed to go to the bar that Fei Qing frequented while Su Qingzhang and others went to the banquet, entrusting the child to Mrs. Yan, only to catch Fei Qing cozying up with a strange woman. In a burst of anger, she slapped that shameless woman twice, then scratched Fei Qing’s face, and took a taxi back.

Su Ziceng quickly stepped forward, pulling the security guard and Yan Wuxu apart, Yan Wuxu swung her hand fiercely, pushing away Su Ziceng. Her bright nails were still marked with bloodstains.

"Who were you arguing with just now?" Su Ziceng looked at Yan Wuxu wearing a leopard print bodysuit, decorated with a Night Rose on her chest, feeling a strange sense of distance from her.

"You have no right to question me," Yan Wuxu cursed, with no intention of explaining.

"Yan Wuxu, don’t let dad down," Su Ziceng did not finish her sentence, but she suspected Yan Wuxu might have affairs outside.

"You would be better off figuring out a way out for yourself rather than worrying about me, you’re in no position to protect yourself either," Yan Wuxu mocked her.

Yan Wuxu’s words pained Su Ziceng, but also reminded her. Indeed, she could no longer continue on recklessly; perhaps Pello was right, she should go to the Su Family. It’s possible that Chang Chi’s departure was not as simple as it seemed, maybe, before going to the Su Family, she should take a chance to have a talk with Chang Chi. (To be continued.
