CHAPTER 70: CHAPTER 70: REVEALING THE TRUTH OF THAT YEAR

"Outrageous!"

Song Anqi shook off his hand and whispered angrily, "Tell me, how did you handle the matter I asked you to take care of six years ago?"

The man’s eyes flashed with a hint of guilt, then shamelessly held onto Song Anqi’s hand, "What else could I have done? Of course, I handled it as per your request."

Worried that Song Anqi wouldn’t believe him, he added, "By the way, who exactly is that woman? How is she better than you, making you go through so much trouble?"

"That’s none of your business."

Song Anqi didn’t believe him. She forcefully pulled back her hand and pressed on, "Stop beating around the bush with me. Let me tell you, that woman has returned with a son, and the boy is already five years old. If you do the math, he was conceived exactly six years ago that same night. Tell me, is her son yours?"

Song Anqi couldn’t believe that Song Yinyin’s child belonged to Lu Jihan. She needed to find out the whole truth.

The man’s movements, carelessly tracing circles on her hand, suddenly froze.

What, that woman has a son?

This...

The subtle expression on his face and his stunned, motionless posture were keenly picked up by Song Anqi, and her heart skipped a beat.

She immediately understood that the man was hiding something from her.

"Zhang Zhuo! Confess the truth quickly, or there will be consequences! You know what I’m capable of!" Song Anqi threatened.

When Song Anqi had someone come looking for him, Zhang Zhuo knew trouble was at hand, and the events of that year were about to be exposed...

He pursed his lips and said, "Six years ago, I did deceive you indeed, but I couldn’t help it."

Boom—

Song Anqi’s mind was buzzing, as if filled with blood.

She grabbed Zhang Zhuo’s hand, her crystal-encrusted nails nearly digging into his arm, "Tell me quickly, what exactly happened that night?!"

Zhang Zhuo lowered his head, took a deep breath, and said slowly:

"That night, I followed the room address your bodyguard gave, only to find the door slightly ajar. Inside, men’s and women’s clothes were scattered on the carpet. I’m in this line of work, so of course, I recognized the traces left by a man and a woman after making love."

Song Anqi’s pupils widened, interrupting, "Wait a minute! Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong? What if you entered the wrong room?"

"I thought I had entered the wrong room too, but when I retreated to the hallway and carefully checked again, I realized I hadn’t. Moreover, you guys gave me a photo of the woman; I confirmed it was indeed her."

"..." Song Anqi stared with widened eyes, mouth agape, unable to close it for a long time.

Zhang Zhuo continued, "I figured the man probably got drunk, stumbled in by accident, and ended up in the room ahead of me..."

Song Anqi closed her eyes, remembering that six years ago on that night, she had indeed seen a man stumble into the room before she left.

Thinking back now, the man who entered wasn’t the man but Lu Jihan!

The expression on Song Anqi’s face twisted inch by inch. She furiously gripped the man’s arm, saying, "Why didn’t you tell me the truth back then? Why!"

"I... I was also afraid I wouldn’t get paid... so I went along with it and sent that man to another room..."

Without the man needing to finish his sentence, Song Anqi understood the situation. Her head felt dizzy.

Had she known that the child in Song Yinyin’s womb belonged to Lu Jihan, she would never have let Song Yinyin give birth to that illegitimate child.

But now, a wrong step was taken, and everything was too late!
