Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Fu Yanhe’s Suspicion

Shen Yingying’s eyes flickered with a hard-to-detect, obscure light, and the corners of her mouth hooked microscopically.

She was now extremely grateful to Lin Chuxian for sending her this photo.

The moment she got the photo, she had already made a series of plans with her mother. She had thought to use Shen Huai’s illness to lure Shen Yanhe to the hospital, and then she would personally go to the Fu Family to find Fu Yanhe.

But she hadn’t expected to run into Fu Yanhe at the hospital.

It really seemed like even the heavens were helping her.

Given Fu Yanhe’s unpredictable nature, and the way he couldn’t tolerate a speck of dust in his eyes, once he saw this photo and learned that Shen Yanhe had been deceiving him all along, he would surely explode in rage and divorce her immediately!

Shen Yanhe was completely finished!

As Shen Yingying thought this, a sense of satisfaction spread through her heart.

The driver standing behind Fu Yanhe inadvertently caught a glimpse of the photo on the phone, and almost couldn’t resist lowering his head to gauge his young master’s reaction.

Oh boy.

The young master seemed a bit cuckolded.

When Fu Yanhe saw the photo on Shen Yingying’s phone, his expression darkened, and his long hand took her phone, but his gaze did not linger on the couple embracing intimately.

Instead, it fell on a few big characters on the wallpaper behind them: Sandbag Gym.

Watching Fu Yanhe’s sinister and frightening expression, Shen Yingying added fuel to the fire, "Mr. Fu, as you can see, I wasn’t lying. I’m telling you this because I’m afraid that vile and greedy woman Shen Yanhe will deceive you, keeping you in the dark."

As she spoke, her expression was extremely sincere, as if she truly had Fu Yanhe’s best interests at heart.

Fu Yanhe’s dark eyes looked at her coldly, his voice low and magnetic with an edge of chill, "Who gave you this photo, and where was it taken?"

Shen Yingying, who had been expecting Fu Yanhe to fly into a rage, was taken aback by his calm response, and replied subconsciously, "It was snapped by my friend at the Sandbag Gym."

Fu Yanhe’s pupils narrowed, a fleeting shadow crossing the depths of his eyes.

It was indeed the Sandbag Gym; he hadn’t been mistaken.

What had his frail little wife been doing at the gym today?

Unhappy with Fu Yanhe’s indifferent reaction, Shen Yingying opened her mouth to say more, but then she suddenly heard that cold and hoarse voice say, "If I remember correctly, as for the matter of the marital swap, it was the Shen Family that first deceived our Fu Family, wasn’t it?"

Shen Yingying stiffened, and looked up at Fu Yanhe instinctively, crashing into his dark, compelling eyes that radiated chill, causing a cold shiver to run through her body.

"Our Fu Family may not have seen the Shen Family’s daughter, but doesn’t your Shen Family know who the real Shen Family’s daughter is? Let me guess, from the start, your Shen Family looked down on me."

"And you, ’coincidentally’ had a car accident, so the Shen Family just randomly found someone to marry me in your place, to suffer instead of you." His gaze on Shen Yingying was filled with a bone-chilling danger, and although his voice was calm, it forced Shen Yingying to take two steps back, her eyes revealing a trace of panic at being exposed.

He laughed, but the laughter did not reach his eyes, and the pressure around him was extremely low, "So, where do you get the face, acting all righteous, to come before me slandering my wife, accusing her of usurping a position that isn’t hers, and even using this groundless photo to allege her infidelity?"

"Who gave you the courage? Hm?"

Shen Yingying faced Fu Yanhe’s fierce demeanor for the first time, that unprecedented sense of oppression causing fear to rise in her heart.

She swallowed, moistening her dry throat, her breathing became difficult, cold sweat flowed down her back, her blood gradually turned cold as if she had stepped into an ice cellar, and her feet involuntarily took a few steps back.

So, so terrifying.

Fu Yanhe looked at her with mockery in his eyes.

How had the Shen Family raised such an idiot?

Had they not shown themselves in front of him, he would have let them off out of consideration for Shen Yanhe.

But they were restless, constantly seeking his attention.

He couldn’t help but reckon with the Shen Family about the deceit of the marital swap.

"Regarding the Shen Family’s deception of our Fu Family, I will settle this matter properly with you." As his words fell, Fu Yanhe let the driver wheel him past Shen Yingying, who was standing stiffly in place, and left.

He now had more important things to do and had no time to waste words on this fool.

Shen Yingying stood rigidly in place for a long time, utterly unprepared for how different Fu Yanhe’s reaction was from what she had imagined!

There was no anger towards Shen Yanhe, no rage from being deceived, instead, he wanted to settle accounts with the Shen Family?!

Why?

Could it be that Fu Yanhe had already fallen for Shen Yanhe? Or had Shen Yanhe told him something in advance?

But how could that be?

They had been married for less than a week! How could there be any affection!

Moreover, when it came to a marriage by substitution, shouldn’t Shen Yanhe be keeping it a secret to the grave? Why would she tell Fu Yanhe?

Panic flickered through Shen Yingying’s eyes as she quickened her pace towards the elevator.

She knew very well.

The Shen Family was simply not on the same level as the Fu Family, and if the Fu Family decided to settle accounts, the Shen Family would surely be crippled!

She had to hurry back and inform her father, to have him think of ways to deal with it in advance.

-

In the director’s office.

Fu Yanhe didn’t wait long before the tightly closed door was pushed open from the outside, and a tall and strong man dressed like a construction worker, in worn-out shirts and rolled-up trousers, walked in: "Young Master."

"Why did Shen Huai fall ill?"

The tall and strong man recounted what had happened in the hospital with Shen Huai today to Fu Yanhe in detail, including Shen Huai putting on protective clothing to go outside for fresh air, dodging the medical staff, going to a corner, and taking out a rose.

"Our people followed Shen Huai as soon as he dodged the medical staff, but Shen Huai was too vigilant; he’d stop whenever someone approached, so we could only trail him from a distance and not get too close to him."

Fu Yanhe’s eyes narrowed, a chilling coolness brewing within: "Who gave him the flower?"

The tall and strong man shook his head: "Couldn’t see clearly, from a distance you could only make out that the person handing him the flower seemed to be a woman."

Fu Yanhe’s face darkened: "Useless."

The tall and strong man lowered his head and didn’t dare to speak.

"Go check on Shen Yingying from the Shen Family." Fu Yanhe’s tone was cold, his gaze sinister: "See if there is any connection between her coming to the hospital today and Shen Huai’s episode."

The tall and strong man nodded: "Yes."

Fu Yanhe paused, then added indifferently: "Also check on Shen Yanhe, investigate what she did in the countryside previously, and where she was four days ago, whether she had been to MX underground boxing ring or not."

"Also, get Shifei to figure out a way to restore the surveillance of MX underground boxing ring from four days ago. If he can’t manage it, go to the TCN forum and post a reward."

"Three days later, I want to see the restored surveillance."

The tall and strong man naturally knew that Fu Yanhe was investigating the identity of the woman who had forced him at the MX ring four days ago and showed a hint of surprise: "Young Master, do you suspect... S is the lady?"

"Just go check." Fu Yanhe’s eyes half-closed, his pale and slender hand rubbing his throbbing forehead: "Make sure to be thorough, don’t miss any information."

"Yes."

After the tall and strong man left, Fu Yanhe then instructed someone to have the doctor use the best medicine, to ensure that Shen Huai was saved, before folding back to the operating room.

-

Meanwhile, Shen Yanhe, having obtained the hospital’s permission, was in the surveillance room investigating the footage.

On the monitor screen, she saw Shen Huai, dressed in protective clothing, joyfully stepping outside under the nurse’s guidance, carefully taking fresh air, curiously observing the hospital garden’s plant arrangements, and heeding medical advice by not tampering with things.

But at 17:35:59, the Shen Huai on the screen suddenly turned his head to look behind, seemingly hearing someone calling him, and hesitated for a moment before walking over.
