Chapter 17

Fu Yu swallowed hard and spoke into the phone, "I think I've seen your ex-wife. She's here in Nancheng."

---

Yu Jinwen sat on the edge of the master bedroom bed, watching the video Fu Yu had sent him, which was intercepted from surveillance footage.

The video was a riot of colors and noisy music. Yu Jinwen frowned; he disliked such chaotic and喧闹 places, but he patiently continued to watch.

A woman's figure appeared in the frame, undoubtedly the center of attention. She wore a fiery red, sexy halter dress and golden high heels, swaying and dancing in the middle of the dance floor like a free spirit. Her every move exuded a lazy yet irresistibly charming and lively aura. Her fair skin glowed under the lights, and as she turned her head slightly, her strikingly beautiful face came into view.

Lu Nansong!

When Yu Jinwen clearly saw the woman's face, he nearly jumped off the bed, his pupils dilating in shock.

It was her, yet it wasn't her.

His wife had been a gentle, somewhat dull beauty. How could she be so冷艳 and alluring now? Calling her a "siren" wouldn't be an exaggeration!

Yu Jinwen stared intently at the video, watching her every move. He desperately wanted to convince himself it wasn't her, but even with her heavy makeup, the tear mole under her right eye was unmistakable.

It was definitely her!

The next moment, he watched as his good friend, swaying his tall frame, approached her, his hand sliding from her waist to her curvaceous hips... Yu Jinwen's eyes darkened, his grip tightening on the phone. He gritted his teeth: How dare this bastard lay a hand on his woman? Was he tired of living?

Just as this thought crossed his mind, he saw the woman, who had nearly been groped, grab Fu Yu's wrist and immediately flip him over with a shoulder throw, followed by a sharp chop. Her movements were swift and ruthless!

Yu Jinwen's pupils dilated again.

Fu Yu's voice came through the phone, "You saw how your ex-wife beat me up, right? My shoulder still hurts from that move... Did you teach her that?"

Yu Jinwen couldn't sit still any longer. He immediately stood up and walked out, growling into the phone, "Send me the address."

On the way to Nancheng, Yu Jinwen replayed the video over and over, his expression dark and unreadable. Clearly, this was her true self. All that gentleness, meekness, and obedience from before had been an act!

But her disguise had been flawless. In three years of marriage, he had never seen through her mask.

So, who was she really?

Fu Yu mentioned that Bai Qi, the young master of the Bai family in Nancheng, referred to her as his "little sister." It was well known that the Bai family hadn't had a daughter in three generations. Or... was she Bai Qi's lover?

This thought caused Yu Jinwen's already cold face to frost over even more, the air around him turning icy.

He was determined to find out what game she was playing!

Lu Nansong slept until dawn, waking up with a pounding headache, as if an elephant had stomped on her head.

"Awake?" Bai Qi appeared by the bedside at the right moment, handing her a glass of milk. "Drink this; it'll help."

Lu Nansong frowned as she took the milk. Her voice was hoarse as she asked, "Why am I at your place?"

"You were completely wasted last night, so I didn't let you go home," Bai Qi replied, calmly eating breakfast at the table. He watched his sister pinch her nose and gulp down the milk as if it were poison, chuckling. "You've never liked milk since you were a kid. Every time you drink it, it's like you're taking medicine."

After finishing the milk, Lu Nansong quickly rinsed her mouth with water. Her stomach did feel better, but looking down at her wrinkled dress, she picked up her phone and sent a message to her assistant before heading to the bathroom. "I'm going to take a shower."

"Do you remember what happened last night?" Bai Qi asked casually from behind her.

Lu Nansong paused, turned around, and tried to recall. "I think I was dancing... and then someone tried to grope me. I flipped him over and slapped him, right?"
