Chapter 238: Chapter 238: Am I That Kind of Person in Your Heart?
When the thought surfaced in his mind, Chen Xuan felt exceedingly conflicted.
He had agreed to the divorce Han Jingting proposed over the phone solely because he had found out about her affair with Meng Junchen.
But now, it seemed that all of this might have been nothing but a misunderstanding.
Yet, was this really just a simple misunderstanding?
Why were Han Jingting and Meng Junchen at the hotel at the same time?
Was all this merely a coincidence?
And what about the explicit messages that Meng Junchen had sent to Han Jingting’s phone?
How could one explain that?
Chen Xuan always felt that there was an invisible hand manipulating everything behind the scenes, but for the moment, he couldn’t figure out where that hand was coming from.
Afterward, Chen Xuan took out the Silver Needle and neutralized the narcotic poison in Han Jingting’s body.
"Chen Xuan?"
When Han Jingting opened her eyes and saw Chen Xuan, she appeared very surprised.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you home," he said.
Chen Xuan helped Han Jingting up and they left the hotel.
The moment they walked out of the hotel, Han Jingting saw a crowd gathered on the lawn behind the hotel—it looked like someone had an accident.
"What happened over there?" Han Jingting asked curiously.
"It’s nothing, get in the car."
Without elaborating, Chen Xuan led Han Jingting straight to the car.
Meng Junchen not only stole twenty million but even attempted to do such things to Han Jingting—he deserved to die even if he had fallen to his death!
On the way, Han Jingting began to ask about what had happened earlier.
"Chen Xuan, what really happened just now? I remember Meng Junchen—he..."
Chen Xuan nodded, "You’re right, he indeed intended to take advantage of you, but luckily I arrived in time, so he didn’t get the chance to hurt you."
Relieved by these words, Han Jingting finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Chen Xuan continued, "Do you still remember the incident where you lost a twenty-million-dollar check last time?"
"Of course, I remember, but why bring that up?" Han Jingting asked, puzzled.
As they drove, Chen Xuan explained, "Actually, right after I learned the check had been lost, I reported it to the police immediately, and they’ve already responded. The twenty-million-dollar check was stolen by Meng Junchen!"
"What?!" Han Jingting was stunned, hardly able to believe it all.
She had never imagined that Meng Junchen could do such a thing.
But upon reflection, Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen had been brought back from Nanhu to Huai City by Meng Junchen, and it seemed that he was the only one who had the opportunity to steal the check along the way!
"Where is Meng Junchen now?" Han Jingting inquired.
"Don’t worry, he won’t have the chance to get near you anymore. But now, you should be more cautious about your cousin!" Chen Xuan warned.
Han Jingting was taken aback, "Why do you say that?"
"When Meng Junchen took you away, they must have been right there at the scene, yet they did nothing. I suspect they deliberately watched as Meng Junchen took you away!"
"What..." Han Jingting felt a shiver down her spine.
To stand by as she fell into a trap, her cousin was far too cruel and terrifying!
Yet, even so, her own mother favored him more than her, her own daughter.
At that moment, Han Jingting felt an unprecedented sense of loneliness.
In this vast family, there was hardly a place for her and Xiao Yu to call their own!
She didn’t even have someone to confide in!
Han Jingting wished Chen Xuan would stay at home, stay by her side, like before.
At least, when she was in trouble, he would never stand by and do nothing!
Unfortunately, it seemed that was no longer possible...
Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at Fenghua Residential Area.
"Do you need me to accompany you up?" Chen Xuan asked.
A flicker of hesitation crossed Han Jingting’s face, but in the end, she said, "No need, I can go up by myself."
Han Jingting pushed open the car door, ready to leave with her exhausted body and mind.
At that moment, Chen Xuan suddenly spoke up, "Jingting, there’s something... I don’t know if I should ask..."
Han Jingting paused, "If you have something to ask, just ask."
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "On the night before our divorce, why were you at the Huangdu Grand Hotel, and with Meng Junchen at that?"
Han Jingting’s brows furrowed. "How did you know that? Were you following me?"
Chen Xuan offered no explanation, "So, what exactly did you two go to the hotel for?"
Han Jingting’s expression grew visibly uglier.
"We went to the hotel to book a room! Is that the answer you want to hear?"
"Chen Xuan, in your heart, am I really that kind of woman with no morals?"
Grievous tears streamed down Han Jingting’s delicate cheeks.
Chen Xuan immediately felt a pang of heartache and hurriedly said, "I... I didn’t mean it like that..."
"Then what do you mean by asking that?" Han Jingting challenged.
Chen Xuan had nothing to say.
"Chen Xuan, let me tell you, I, Han Jingting, have never betrayed our family in the past, and I will not do so in the future! I am not like you, a scumbag!"
Having said that, Han Jingting wiped the tears from her face and turned to leave directly!
Seeing Han Jingting’s aggrieved appearance, Chen Xuan felt a surge of heartache. He wanted to chase after her and explain, but he ultimately did not do so.
Because he had no idea how to explain.
He had indeed doubted her fidelity!
Chen Xuan was very clear that Han Jingting didn’t seem to be lying.
But if that was the case, why would she coincidentally appear at the hotel with Meng Junchen?
And what about those explicit text messages? What was the deal with them?
At the front door of her home, Han Jingting dried her tears before pushing the door open and going inside.
As soon as she entered, she saw Ding Lijuan and Ding Liang, all talking about something in the living room.
"Sister? You... how come you’re back so soon?"
Ding Liang was shocked. In his view, Han Jingting should have been with Meng Junchen at this time.
Han Jingting snorted coldly, "What, my coming back so soon disappoints you all, doesn’t it? Would you be happy only if I was driven to throw myself into the river and commit suicide?"
In fact, besides wanting to gain benefits from Meng Junchen, Ding Liang did indeed harbor such a thought.
Aunt Ding Lijuan regarded him as her own, and if it weren’t for having a sister like Han Jingting, everything in the Ding family would have been his, and he might even have had a shot at getting involved with the Han Corporation that should belong to Han Jingting...
Feeling guilty, Ding Liang didn’t dare to respond.
But Ding Lijuan couldn’t stand it any longer. "Jingting, how can you talk to Xiao Liang like that? Apologize to him right now!"
Having narrowly escaped danger, Han Jingting was too angry to compromise when she saw Ding Lijuan and the others.
"Apologize? Him, a despicable and shameless wretch, also deserves an apology from me?"
Han Jingting looked at Ding Liang and roared, "Get your things and get out of here now! Our family doesn’t welcome your kind, with hearts like wolves and lungs like dogs!"
