Chapter 157 - 151: The Outcome

Chapter 157: Chapter 151: The Outcome

Someone like Gao Sheng, who has devoted his entire life to the country and the anti-drug cause, would not understand why a woman could become a man’s whole world. In his view, Leng Yichen’s indecision could easily lead many innocent people to become addicted to drugs and many families to lose their happiness because of drugs.

Therefore, at this moment, Bai Yiran appeared as an obstacle in Gao Sheng’s eyes, even though he overlooked that Bai Yiran was also one of the many innocent people.

"Boss, where are we going?" Seeing Gao Sheng’s car leave, Wang Hai asked.

"Home..." Leng Yichen furrowed his brows, "No, let’s go back to the company."

"Okay." Wang Hai glanced at Leng Yichen through the rearview mirror, feeling a bit of sorrow for this man.

A sleepless night...

When Lou Jing got up, Bai Yiran had already prepared breakfast and was standing at the door, all set to leave.

"Where are you going?" Lou Jing asked.

"Going back."

"Why are you going back? Leng Yichen hasn’t even given you an explanation yet, are you really willing to go back like this?" Lou Jing’s temper flared as she slammed the bowl in her hand, stood up, and grabbed Bai Yiran’s arm.

Bai Yiran smiled, "I can’t stay here forever. There are some things I want to figure out, so I have to go back."

This marriage started unclearly, but if it were to end, it must be clear and definite. This was Bai Yiran’s final bottom line.

"Even if Leng Yichen said, ’Bai Yiran, get lost, I don’t love you anymore,’ it’s still something." Bai Yiran gave a bitter smile, "It’s better than this unclear cold war."

Bai Yiran’s emotional intelligence wasn’t high, and once she took relationships seriously, she would dive right into them. To make her completely let go, there needed to be an irrefutable reason, a reason strong enough to make her give up entirely.

At the very least, for now, Bai Yiran still held onto fantasies about Leng Yichen. After all, there was once such deep love.

Lou Jing let go of her hand and gently hugged Bai Yiran, "Sweetie, remember, no matter what happens, you still have me!"

"I know." Bai Yiran’s eyes reddened because of Lou Jing’s words.

Sister Liu was very happy to see Bai Yiran back, "Yiran, you’re back! I was wondering why you weren’t here today either."

"Where’s Leng Yichen?"

Sister Liu froze, "Sir came back this morning, changed his clothes, and then left."

Bai Yiran came back early, thinking she would catch Leng Yichen, but she ended up missing him again.

Sister Liu said with a cheerful smile, "You look so tired, why don’t you go upstairs and rest for a while?"

"Okay."

Bai Yiran obediently went upstairs, returning to the bedroom she shared with Leng Yichen. On the bed lay Leng Yichen’s clothes, which he had changed out of, messily tossed about. Bai Yiran stared at those clothes for a while in a daze, and after a sigh, she began to pick them up piece by piece.

A fleeting fragrance wafted into Bai Yiran’s nose. She brought the clothes closer to her nose for a sniff, and at the collar, cuffs, and chest area, the scent was most pronounced.

A scent of high-end perfume.

Not Bai Yiran’s perfume scent.

Bai Yiran’s mind exploded with a buzzing noise, her arms went limp, and the clothes slipped from her arms, scattering all over the floor.

A corner of a room card peeked out from the pocket of the suit jacket. Bai Yiran squatted down, staring at that peeking corner.

Mingjing Hotel, Room 3308.

Bai Yiran slumped weakly onto the ground, looking at the room card in her hand.

That was the room where she and Leng Yichen had been together for the first time.

Holding the room card, Bai Yiran stood in front of Room 3308. She didn’t know what lay behind the door, or what she was about to face. In her heart, a voice kept insisting, ’Bai Yiran, just go in, and you’ll find an answer.’

With trembling hands, she gradually brought the room card close to the door, never before feeling so nervous as she did now, fearing that what lay beyond the door might be a scene she couldn’t bear to see.

Beep!

The door opened.

Bai Yiran caught a familiar whiff of perfume...

"Brother-in-law~ didn’t you say you’d come later? Why are you here so early? Do you miss me?"

Wu Lin’s voice came from inside.

Bai Yiran’s blood seemed to freeze as she stood motionless at the doorway.
