Chapter 95: Did You Know She Was Involved With Another Man?

“Lu Beiqin, what are you doing here!”

Lu Beiqin glanced at her, confirming there were no marks on her, then finally spoke, “You mentioned yesterday you’d be coming here, and I thought you might leave early. So I came to pick you up.”

Shen Chutang tilted her head, her eyes brimming with amusement. “Lu Beiqin, are you worried about me?”

She had meant it as a tease, but to her surprise, the man answered directly, “Yes.”

Now it was Shen Chutang’s turn to fall silent. She scratched her head a little awkwardly. “Let’s go home.”

Lu Beiqin opened the car door for her, but just then, Shen Tingting and Shen Duoduo came rushing out behind them.

Earlier, Shen Chutang had embarrassed them inside, and now the guests were casting strange looks their way. Immediately, Shen Tingting exchanged a glance with Shen Duoduo. After a brief discussion, they decided to follow Shen Chutang out of the hotel.

They planned to seize the opportunity, now that no one was around, to teach Shen Chutang a lesson and see if she’d dare act so high and mighty again!

But as soon as they stepped outside, Shen Duoduo caught sight of the man.

He was dressed rather casually today—a plain white shirt with no visible logo, paired with black slacks. The outfit was simple, but on him, with his broad shoulders and trim waist, the proportions were flawless; he looked every bit the natural clothes hanger, the kind of man who drew every eye wherever he went.

Shen Duoduo seethed with jealousy. How could Shen Chutang live somewhere so nice and have a man like this by her side?

Shen Tingting looked at Lu Beiqin, and seeing his face, felt a pang of sour envy herself. But then she remembered—he was just a taxi driver. That thought consoled her.

With her noble status, a taxi driver was hardly worthy of her!

Shen Duoduo turned to Shen Tingting. “Is that man Shen Chutang’s boyfriend?”

“That’s right. Just some lowly driver. I bet he’s only with her for the house—why else would he marry her?”

Shen Duoduo nodded. If she had that house, wouldn’t she have a man like him wrapped around her finger?

Stepping forward, Shen Duoduo addressed Lu Beiqin directly. “Hey, do you know Shen Chutang’s been with other men before?”

Shen Tingting, eager to stir up trouble, chimed in, “The house you two live in—who knows, maybe Shen Chutang slept her way into it with other men. Lu Beiqin, you’re really something. The bed you share might well be the same one she used with someone else!”

Shen Duoduo covered her mouth, laughing. “You’re so handsome. What could you possibly see in Shen Chutang? Why don’t you leave her and be with me instead? I promise you’ll live the good life.”

Displeasure flickered across Shen Chutang’s face. These two really had nothing better to do than come and say such things in front of her.

Shen Duoduo had always bragged in their group chat that Lu Beiqin was her man. Now, if she could snatch him away from Shen Chutang right before her eyes, wouldn’t that be the ultimate humiliation?

With that in mind, Shen Duoduo walked closer to Lu Beiqin, reaching out to touch him, her voice syrupy sweet. “Shen Chutang has no power or influence in the capital, and in the Shen family she’s a nobody. That villa in Xishan is the only thing she has to show off. But if her patron finds out she’s using it to keep another man, who knows what will happen—maybe he’ll take the house back.

How about it? If you’re with me, I can find you a job with better prospects. At least you won’t have to work out in the wind and rain every day, driving Shen Chutang around. Plus, I’ll give you an extra hundred thousand yuan a month. How does that sound?”

Shen Duoduo was certain she was offering something Shen Chutang, that pauper, could never match.

Lu Beiqin’s gaze turned icy as he glared at the woman before him. “Get lost.”

Shen Duoduo was momentarily stunned. She knew she was good-looking—people were always complimenting her—and she’d just made such a generous offer. Yet this man had the nerve to reject her so bluntly!

“What did you say!” Shen Duoduo’s eyes widened in fury. “Do you even know who you’re talking to?”

But Lu Beiqin didn’t spare her another glance. He got straight into the car and drove away.

Shen Duoduo stamped her foot in anger. Shen Tingting consoled her, “He’s not worth getting angry over. He probably couldn’t agree in front of Shen Chutang anyway. Here’s what we’ll do instead…”

Shen Tingting whispered a few words in Shen Duoduo’s ear. Shen Duoduo nodded at once. “Good, we’ll do it your way!”

Shen Tingting had no interest in Lu Beiqin herself, but she did enjoy seeing Shen Chutang suffer, watching as everyone around her drifted away!
