Chapter 146: Chapter 146 She Deserves the Best
Li Lingyang had just stepped out of the restaurant when he bumped into Su Huimiao, who was rushing towards him in a panic.
Su Huimiao was accompanied by Shen Jiangqing and Chengcheng, her face a mask of anxiety as she blurted out, “Aling, are you breaking up with Chengcheng’s mother? That won’t do! If we break up, what will happen to our Chengcheng, what about Doudou?”
“Mom, it was my fault for doing something wrong, I shouldn’t have angered Aling,” wept Shen Jiangqing, tears streaming down her face like rain on pear blossoms. “From now on, I can’t stay by your side to take care of you, I just hope you can take care of your health…”
“There, there, I only acknowledge you as my daughter-in-law.”
Su Huimiao gently consoled Shen Jiangqing then turned and coldly glared at Li Lingyang, “Five years ago, you insisted on divorcing Ning Yichu, and now, it hasn’t been long since then, you’re leaving Jiangqing and not even caring about the children. If word gets out, won’t people laugh themselves to death? How many people will curse you as a scumbag!”
“Is it just because I drugged you a little? What’s wrong with using some intimate products between a man and a woman! Wasn’t she just trying to make things more harmonious in bed for you?”
“Paparazzi these days love to make a big deal out of nothing. If your image of abandoning your wife and child leaks out, causing the company’s stock to plunge, your father has more than one child. If he hands over the company to Li Jingtian instead, our mother and daughter will have lost everything…”
Yes, Su Huimiao’s concerns weren’t just for Chengcheng, but also for her future wealth and status!
More than seven years ago, the scandal between Li Lingyang and Ning Yichu was known throughout the city. Li Jianbin was so enraged that he briefly called Li Jingtian back; it was only because Li Lingyang proved himself to be more capable that he was allowed to stay and inherit.
Now, with wolves lurking all around the Imperial City’s business scene and the Li Family having the Gu Family as a sworn enemy, a spark could set off those waiting to push the Li Family into replacing their successor…
Li Lingyang hadn’t expected Su Huimiao to suddenly show up, and upon seeing Shen Jiangqing by his side, acting all dutiful and wronged, the corners of his mouth curled into a mocking, cold smirk.
She had indeed found herself a good accomplice.
Shen Jiangqing, sensing Li Lingyang’s scrutinizing gaze, put on an even more innocent expression.
Su Huimiao spoke earnestly, “For the children’s sake, let’s not make a fuss! If you’re going to blame someone, blame me. It was my idea to suggest to Jiangqing that she drug you…”
“Do you realize that if the drug isn’t neutralized, it can cause lasting damage?” Li Lingyang asked, his austere brows lifting slightly, exuding an air of authority.
Su Huimiao looked as if she’d been struck by lightning, her gaze suddenly shifting towards Shen Jiangqing.
Shen Jiangqing’s face turned deathly pale…
She had only increased the dosage because she was afraid Li Lingyang would continue to reject her!
Lasting damage… once he touched a woman, wouldn’t that solve the problem?
Li Lingyang’s thin lips parted slightly, his tone indifferent, “Even if I leave the Li Family, I’m still Li Lingyang. You don’t need to worry about me not being able to support you.”
“What do you mean by that? That’s a fortune of many trillions, and you’re willing to just give it away to that bastard… I… I…” Su Huimiao, overcome with agitation, her wrinkled face suddenly turning ghostly white, clutched her chest, unable to catch her breath and fainting on the spot.
“Mom… Mom?!” Shen Jiangqing hurriedly supported her, her mind in turmoil.
Li Lingyang’s brow furrowed, and with quick reflexes, he scooped up Su Huimiao and quickly headed for the parking lot of Junyue Mansion.
…
After finishing her meal, Ning Yichu went to the security room of Junyue Mansion to request the surveillance footage from near last night’s bonfire party.
Due to the vast size of Junyue Mansion, it was impossible for the surveillance to cover everything.
However, there were several cameras around the square where the bonfire party was held. Even if she couldn’t find the bastard who had drugged her and Xiao Ai, she might find some clues…
“Are you Lady Ning?” The security manager asked her when she came to check the surveillance.
Ning Yichu, suspicious, queried, “You know me?”
“Somebody asked me to give this to you.” The security manager handed over a CD, speaking politely.
Ning Yichu accepted the CD somewhat doubtfully, then heard the manager add, “You should find the clues you’re looking for on here.”

Under the shade of a tree not far from the security room, Mo Baiyou watched Ning Yichu leave with the CD in her hand. Her face held a trace of seriousness, as if she was pondering something.
His trusted subordinate watched Ning Yichu disappear, perplexed, “Boss, you clearly rescued her and even handed the real culprit to her. Why not tell her directly?”
“I was too hasty before and scared her; I don’t want to make her feel like I’m doing all this for some ulterior motive,” Mo Baiyou said in a gentle tone, yet his expression was firm and composed, with the indifference of a hunter capturing his prey.
The assistant sighed, “You’re so good to her, yet you don’t let her know…”
“She deserves it.”
…
The Arctic Team-building activity had ended, and in the afternoon, the bus took the employees back to the Imperial City District.
What surprised Ning Yichu was that Li Lingyang had simply disappeared and hadn’t arranged for anyone to pick up the two children. This resulted in Ning Yichu arriving with one baby and leaving with three!
Fortunately, the bus had extra seats. The three babies sat in a row, chirping away merrily.
Xiao Ai was “young at heart,” and on the way back, she kept chatting and laughing with the babies, constantly teasing Chen Bao and taking selfies with him.
Chen Bao’s range of emoticons had been forcibly extracted by Xiao Ai, and fire nearly shot from his eyes!
But each time, he was pushed back by Ning Yichu’s “Don’t be rude.”
Click, click, Xiao Ai quickly amassed a large collection of photos.
Watching Chen Bao’s aggrieved little eyes, Ning Yichu laughed until her stomach hurt.
After returning to Junyue Mansion, the children, worn out from the car ride, had already fallen asleep.
Ning Yichu carried the children back to their beds to rest, and then sent a text message to Li Lingyang, letting him know she had brought the children back. But he didn’t respond with a single message, so Ning Yichu didn’t bother and arranged to meet with Fan Yuke upstairs to retrieve her damaged phone.
Fan Yuke’s phone had been broken for a few days, and just then, the repair shop staff said it was ready for pickup.
The two went to the smartphone repair shop.
“Hey, where are my photos?” Fan Yuke was surprised as she looked through her phone album which had all sorts of photos, except for the ones of Shen Jiangqing and Shen Jun’s secret meeting.
The staff explained, “We accidentally hit the wrong button during data recovery, and it got deleted by mistake.”
“By accident? Of all the photos to not delete, you delete that one?!” Fan Yuke was speechless.
Ning Yichu was unruffled. The photos were gone, but it didn’t matter since she already knew what the powder was.
After paying, they hadn’t walked far from the store when a man with a bare torso and a flamboyant Hawaiian shirt approached them.
“Lady Ning, what a coincidence, I didn’t expect us to meet again~” The man leered at Ning Yichu with a hint of discontent in his eyes, as if he had almost won her over at the resort, only to be intercepted by Mo Baiyou!
As he spoke, he couldn’t restrain himself and reached out to touch Ning Yichu’s face…
Ning Yichu saw the man’s face clearly, and her gaze turned icy, as she slapped his hand away, “It’s you?”
“Ah!” Fan Yuke pointed at the man across from her and exclaimed, “Chu Chu, it’s him! He’s the man who conducted the illegal transaction with Shen Jiangqing!”
Shen Jun’s expression hardened, with a hint of threat as he glared at Fan Yuke.
Fan Yuke’s shoulders shrank slightly, then she glared back even more fiercely, as if to say, what are you staring at? Are we competing to see who has bigger eyes with Kazi Lan?
“So what if it’s me? Lady Ning, I’ve always admired you. Perhaps after you’ve experienced my skills in bed, you might just fall head over heels for me!” As he spoke, Shen Jun approached with a lustful glint in his eye, attempting to pull the two women.
