Chapter 755: 757, Encountering a Scumbag (Second Update)

Zi stopped at the corner of the second floor, looking ahead.

There was a couple embracing each other.

The man was handsome, with very fair skin.

The woman was not tall, delicately and cutely built, very adorable.

If Zi wasn’t mistaken, the man was Duanmu Sheng’s boyfriend, but the woman was not Duanmu Sheng.

Zi had an excellent memory; although she had met Duanmu Sheng’s boyfriend only once, she had memorized his features, so she was certain that he was Duanmu Sheng’s boyfriend.

This guy was too despicable, having a girlfriend and still hugging and cuddling with another woman.

Moreover, Duanmu Sheng was so beautiful.

Not only was Duanmu Sheng beautiful, but she also had a good temperament; in short, Zi had a good impression of her.

At the sight of this scumbag daring to betray Duanmu Sheng, Zi was infuriated.

"Haoguang, it’s been so many days, did you miss me?" The woman’s voice was soft and cooing, incredibly whiny.

"Of course, I missed you, missed you to death," Shen Haoguang pinched the woman’s buttocks hard.

"When are you going to break up with that mannish girl? I can hardly wait anymore!" The woman slipped her hand into Shen Haoguang’s chest, her eyes full of seduction.

"Soon, soon." Shen Haoguang scooped up the woman in his arms, kicked open the door to the room, and couldn’t wait to take her inside.

Zi was nearly dying with anger! This scumbag! Duanmu Sheng looked so pretty and had such a nice temperament, yet he was cheating! And even called Duanmu Sheng mannish! This was utterly intolerable.

To Zi, the mistress was not even one-tenth as good as Duanmu Sheng, this guy was truly blind to his own fortune.

Zi could barely control the rage in her heart, wanting to rush in and beat up that pair of scum! But then she thought that this matter did not concern her too much and she had no place to act this way, it would be better for Duanmu Sheng to handle this herself.

With that thought, Zi took out her phone and dialed Duanmu Sheng’s number, but after a long ring, Duanmu Sheng did not answer.

Zi put down the phone, waved her hand, and a transparent screen appeared in the air. She entered Duanmu Sheng’s name and clicked search. Duanmu Sheng’s location was then found.

Since Duanmu Sheng didn’t answer the phone, Zi had to go in person.

After a 10-minute drive, Zi arrived at the location of Duanmu Sheng.

This was the address of Duanmu Sheng’s workplace, the Superpower World’s advanced research institute, where Duanmu Sheng was a professor with some authority.

Zi presented her work credentials, so she easily entered, and the staff personally welcomed Zi and took her to Duanmu Sheng’s office.

"Professor Duanmu, someone is looking for you," the staff member said very politely, knocking on the door.

"Come in," Duanmu Sheng said without lifting her head.

The staff then opened the door, letting Zi in, and then stepped aside.

Duanmu Sheng was bent over, busy with some equipment, not even looking up when Zi arrived.

"Sheng Sheng sister," Zi took the initiative to greet her.

Although Duanmu Sheng had told her to call her Sheng Sheng, Zi still didn’t have the courage to say it out loud, it felt kind of off-turn, calling her Sheng Sheng.

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Sheng looked up in surprise, "Oh, you busy person, what brings you here." Although she was talking to Zi, her hands were still busy at work, possibly because of work, so Duanmu Sheng was wearing a pair of glasses.

She was dressed in a white lab coat, very different from the usual Duanmu Sheng, giving off the vibe of a strong woman.

That jerk, really blind, with such a nice Duanmu Sheng, who knows what he was thinking, actually cheating! Is he a fool?

"I think the real busy person is you," Zi suppressed the discomfort in her heart, smiled slightly, and then said, "Alright, Sheng Sheng sister, stop what you’re doing, I’ll take you somewhere."

"Give me ten minutes." After saying this, Duanmu Sheng bent back down to her work; she was very serious when she worked, even her eyebrows furrowed together.

It was just ten minutes anyway, and that scumbag probably wouldn’t be finished so quickly, so Zi didn’t say anything, found a chair to sit down, "Alright, I’ll wait for you here."

To not affect Duanmu Sheng’s mood at work, Zi didn’t bring up the matter in advance.

After ten minutes, Zi stood up, "Sheng Sheng sister, are you ready? Let’s go."

"Sorry Zi, give me five more minutes, I’m almost done," Duanmu Sheng said without lifting her head.

"OK, then hurry up," Zi had no choice but to sit down again.

Five minutes later, Zi stood up again, "Sheng Sheng sister, are you ready?"

"Sorry, give me ten more minutes," Duanmu Sheng said apologetically, "This time it’s really almost done."

Fortunately, the trip here only took 10 minutes, otherwise, waiting like this would really be a problem.

Zi had no choice but to sit down again.

Another ten minutes passed, and Zi stood up, "Sister Sheng, are you done yet?"

Duanmu Sheng looked up with an apologetic expression, "Zi, can you wait for your sister for another 10 minutes, it’s really almost finished! Just one more step left!"

Duanmu Sheng had already wasted 35 minutes, and this time Zi couldn’t wait any longer, "Sister Sheng, let’s not wait anymore, come with me quickly, it will be too late, you can continue this tomorrow, my matter is more urgent."

"No, no, what could be more important than work? Just wait for me a little longer, just a little bit," Duanmu Sheng said, holding up a finger.

"What’s the time now, if we keep waiting, your boyfriend will run off with someone else!" Zi grabbed Duanmu Sheng’s wrist directly, "Come with me quickly."

"What do you mean by that? What do you mean by my boyfriend running off with someone else?" Duanmu Sheng freed herself from Zi’s grasp, a face of confusion. If she remembered correctly, Zi shouldn’t have met her boyfriend, right?

What on earth is she talking about?

"Your boyfriend is cheating! Right now, he’s rolling in the sheets with another woman at the Purple Night," Zi said bluntly, Purple Night being the name of the hotel.

"Really? Are you kidding?" Duanmu Sheng laughed, "Stop teasing, when have you ever met my boyfriend?"

Duanmu Sheng’s boyfriend was an extremely honest and reliable man, coming from a scholarly family. Thus, Duanmu Sheng thought it was just Zi joking with her, especially since Zi didn’t even know her boyfriend.

"I’m telling the truth." Zi’s face turned red with urgency, wishing she had taken a picture of the scene, "Right, isn’t your boyfriend called something like Haoguang? I really saw him going to book a room while holding another woman! Sister Sheng, think about it, would I lie to you about something like this?"

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Sheng immediately furrowed her brows, "Are you telling the truth?" Her boyfriend was indeed called Shen Haoguang, and since Zi had not met Shen but could call out his name, this meant it wasn’t a made-up story.

"I swear, everything I’m saying is true," Zi said, holding up three fingers.

"Where are those despicable people now?" Duanmu Sheng quickly removed her glasses, squinted her eyes, looking almost ready to shoot fire from them.

Zi could not care about anything else at the moment, and pulled on Duanmu Sheng’s wrist, "They’re at the Purple Night, I know the room number, come with me quickly."

"Okay," Duanmu Sheng stood up furiously!

The scumbag, daring to fool around behind her back! He really doesn’t want to live!

Just as they walked out of the office, Duanmu Sheng broke free from Zi’s grasp, turned around, "Wait for me a second, I need to get something."

"Sister Sheng, what are you getting?" Zi asked.

"A welcoming gift for the cheaters." As she spoke, Duanmu Sheng had already stepped out of the office, clutching a pair of simple, gleaming scissors in her hand.

Seeing this, Zi’s lower abdomen instantly tightened, feeling a sharp pain as if cut right through.

No wonder they say a woman is a tiger! There’s certainly a reason for that saying.

Suddenly, he felt a bit sorry for that scumbag.

Zi drove the car, speeding all the way, a trip that should have taken fifteen minutes was rushed to just five by Duanmu Sheng.

Duanmu Sheng didn’t even have time to change out of her work clothes, holding a large pair of scissors in her hand, she walked with full intent to kill towards the entrance of the Purple Night.

After parking the car, Zi immediately followed her, "Sister Sheng, don’t be impulsive, it would be bad if a life is lost."

Duanmu Sheng sneered coldly, an aura of coldness surrounding her, "Don’t worry, we are all civilized people, I absolutely won’t cause any loss of life, at most, Shen Haoguang will simply be cut off from having descendants," she said seriously, with absolutely no indication of joking.

Zi swallowed nervously, damn it! Castration is more terrifying than taking a life, right?

"Where’s that pair of dogs? Hurry up and lead me to them," Duanmu Sheng was nearly exploding with anger! She hadn’t expected the usually prim and proper Shen Haoguang to be secretly cheating on her!

"Over here, follow me," Zi led the way, and along the path, many people cast sideways glances at them.

Because of their distinct darkness, most people knew that Zi was the Great National Division of the Superpower World.

Oh no.

Now, she should be called the Great National Division of the Three Realms.

After turning a corner, they arrived at the door of a room on the third floor.

Zi stood aside, pointing to the door, "Sister Sheng, it’s this one."

"Step aside." Duanmu Sheng waved her hand, ready to kick the door open.

Zi was feeling a bit nervous; it was her first time dealing with catching a cheater. Taking a few steps forward, she continued, "Sister Sheng, no matter what you see after you go in, remember to stay calm. We all live under the rule of law, so don’t do anything you might regret."

"I know!" Duanmu Sheng’s face was looking very ugly, "Get out of my way, or I’ll kick you too."

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng had completely lost her reason.

Cheating bastard! How dare he cuckold her!

Did she, Duanmu Sheng, look that easy to bully?

Heh.

Zi stepped aside, and Duanmu Sheng kicked out forcefully.

With a "bang," a whole door was kicked down to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

At the same time, there were faint moaning sounds coming out from inside the room.

A bit suggestive.

Anyone with eyes could guess what kind of thing was going on inside.

Duanmu Sheng bit her lip, trembling all over with rage, and strode inside with scissors in hand.

"Uhm... Sister Sheng, I won’t go in," Zi said, scratching his head with a red face and ears. Inside must be some adult-only scenes; he’s still a Bao Bao, not yet suitable to see those kinds of things.

Duanmu Sheng was in no mood to pay attention to Zi now; with a cold face and full of fury, she walked inside.

Zi got even more nervous, silently praying to heaven for Duanmu Sheng to go easier in her handling, hoping she wouldn’t really harm that scumbag. Going to jail over such a man was simply not worth it.

"Ahh!" A sharp female scream pierced the air.

It was probably from being scared.

That voice wasn’t Duanmu Sheng’s.

But by the look of it, Duanmu Sheng had already walked into the room.

However, strangely enough, one minute, two minutes, three minutes—time ticked away, and there wasn’t any noise of a commotion.

Given Duanmu Sheng’s fiery temperament, she should have kicked up a fuss by now.

This was a bit illogical.

Zi frowned slightly.

Could it be that Duanmu Sheng had taken measures to silence someone?

Mommy! This woman was really too fierce!

Thinking this, Zi hurriedly moved toward the room.

Just as he entered, an apologetic voice was heard from inside, "I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I made a mistake! Please continue, carry on."

That was Duanmu Sheng’s voice.

Zi frowned in disbelief. What was going on? Could it be that Duanmu Sheng had become so enraged that she’d lost her mind? Why would she apologize to the scumbag and the other woman?

"Sister Sheng?" Zi walked quickly into the room, looking at Duanmu Sheng with confusion.

Duanmu Sheng was walking out, her delicate face full of embarrassment, "I got it wrong! I got it wrong! Let’s go quickly."

"Are you insane? Where’s the person in charge? Where’s the Purple Night person in charge? I want to file a complaint!" On the big white bed, a young man and woman clutching a quilt glared angrily at Duanmu Sheng and Zi.

Zi was also stunned! Because this young man and woman were not the same ones he had just seen!

Could it be that he got the room number wrong?

With this thought, Zi hurriedly ran to the door to check the room number.

On the door lying on the ground was clearly marked, 1618.

Zi frowned slightly, mumbling to himself, "No, that’s right, it’s 1618." His memory was always incredibly sharp, and there was no way he could remember wrong, so how did the people inside change?

This back and forth hadn’t even taken 40 minutes; Shen Haoguang shouldn’t have finished so quickly.

This matter was quite strange indeed.

"Hey, what’s the matter with you?" Duanmu Sheng walked up to Zi’s side, slightly displeased, "Do you realize how embarrassed I was just now?"

She stormed in furiously, like a shrew, flinging the bed covers aside and holding a pair of scissors in her hand, only to discover that the person lying in bed was not Shen Haoguang at all...

That feeling was really...

Duanmu Sheng seriously suspected that the man might have been frightened impotent by her...

"That’s odd, I clearly saw Shen Haoguang enter with a woman in his arms..." Zi scratched her head in confusion.

"Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?" Duanmu Sheng’s anger had mostly subsided, satisfied that the person inside wasn’t Shen Haoguang.

"I’m certain I didn’t see wrong. Could Shen Haoguang have switched to another room at the last minute?" Zi squinted slightly, now there was only one reasonable explanation left.

Duanmu Sheng let out a sigh, "Never mind, I’ll give him a call." Saying this, Duanmu Sheng pulled out her phone from her pocket.

"Wait." Zi held her hand against Duanmu Sheng’s phone screen and then suggested, "Let’s do a video call."

"Okay." Duanmu Sheng nodded slowly, opened the chat app, and clicked on video call.

It was quickly connected.

Almost without hesitation, no delay whatsoever.

"Sheng Sheng." Shen Haoguang appeared in front of the camera with a tender smile on his face.

"Hmm." Duanmu Sheng hummed softly, then asked, "Where are you right now? Did you go out today?"

"I’m at home, at home eating with my mom. Sheng Sheng, have you eaten? Of course, I went out today. I’m not a shut-in. But other than to the company, I haven’t been anywhere else." Shen Haoguang’s voice was also very gentle, eyes filled with warmth, just then, a middle-aged woman walked by in front of Shen Haoguang with a plate, casually asking, "Haoguang, who are you talking to?"

"Mom, it’s Sheng Sheng," Shen Haoguang looked up.

"It’s Sheng Sheng, huh," the middle-aged woman quickly put down the plate, walked in front of Shen Haoguang, and looking at Duanmu Sheng on the screen, said warmly, "Sheng Sheng, when are you coming over to our place with Haoguang? Let me tell you, Haoguang has been practicing his cooking all afternoon at home just so he can impress you when you come over for a meal. He even cut his finger while cooking today."

With that, his mother turned the camera around, and a table full of delicious dishes immediately appeared on the screen.

Duanmu Sheng raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Auntie, are you saying Haoguang made all these dishes?"

If everything on this table was really made by Shen Haoguang, then who was the man Zi saw?

"Right, it’s just that..." His mother hadn’t finished her sentence when Shen Haoguang snatched away the phone, "Sheng Sheng, don’t listen to my mom’s nonsense. I didn’t make these dishes."

"You child, why are you afraid of Sheng Sheng finding out when you’ve already made the dishes? You’re eventually going to cook for Sheng Sheng anyway, and Sheng Sheng will be your wife sooner or later. Why care about face in front of your wife? This nonsense about ’a gentleman stays away from the kitchen,’ that’s all empty talk." His mother was not as gentle as she appeared to be on the surface; she was a very scheming person.

"Mom... could you please stop talking?" Shen Haoguang looked faintly angry and embarrassed, then turned to look at Duanmu Sheng on the screen, speaking affectionately, "Sheng Sheng, have you eaten?"

"I’ve already eaten." Duanmu Sheng said with a smile, "Go ahead and eat. I won’t disturb you."

Now, Duanmu Sheng believed Shen Haoguang’s words to a certain extent. Perhaps Zi really did see wrong.

"I like it when you disturb me." Maybe to avoid his mother, Shen Haoguang left the dining room and sat down on the sofa in the living room, then continued, "Sheng Sheng, where are you now?"

"I’m outside." Duanmu Sheng gave a noncommittal answer and then hung up the video call.

As soon as the video was disconnected, Zi came over very excited, "Sheng Sheng, that Shen Haoguang is lying. I really saw him enter this room with a woman in his arms."

"Okay, okay. Let’s go back," Duanmu Sheng said, unwilling to dwell on the matter. She trusted that Shen Haoguang would not betray her.

"Sheng Sheng, you must believe me," Zi insisted, clearly feeling terrible about not being trusted. During the video call, Zi had gotten a good look at Shen Haoguang’s face, and she was sure he was the same man she had seen earlier.

Duanmu Sheng licked her lips, somewhat speechless, "But right now, Haoguang is indeed at home, and he has even made a big table of dishes, how do you expect me to believe you?"

After all, Shen Haoguang was her boyfriend, a boyfriend of five years. She couldn’t possibly disregard her boyfriend’s words in favor of believing in Zi, whom she had known for just over a month.

"Right," Zi’s eyes lit up, "There’re surveillance cameras. Even if I saw it wrong, the surveillance can’t be wrong."

Just then, the hotel manager approached them, "Good day, I am the manager of Purple Night."

Duanmu Sheng had kicked the door of the private room and disturbed the guests inside. The hotel had to step in to mediate, with apologies and compensation as needed.

Since Zi was Great National Division, dealing with the matter was relatively straightforward.

After settling the door incident, Zi said to the manager, "Could you please pull up the surveillance footage from in front of room 1618 from about half an hour ago for me to see?"

"Certainly, Great National Division," the manager replied respectfully.

Two minutes later, someone sent the footage over.
