Chapter 1178 With bad intentions
Jiang Mubai didn't say anything and threw the photo directly in front of Lu Jingshen.
Lu Jingshen picked up the photo and saw the woman and child in the photo, his face turned pale instantly.
“This…this is…” Lu Jingshen’s voice trembled, he couldn’t believe his eyes.
"Lu Jingshen, tell me, whose child is this?" Jiang Mubai's voice was icy cold.
Lu Jingshen opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. He looked at the child in the photo who looked so much like himself, and his heart was filled with shock and confusion.
"Speak up! Lu Jingshen!" Jiang Mubai yelled hysterically.
Cheng Yunchuan walked to Jiang Mubai, took her into his arms, and said to Lu Jingshen: "Lu Jingshen, I hope you can give us an explanation."
Lu Jing took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and said, "I don't know whose child this is. I have never seen this woman."
"You're lying!" Jiang Mubai pushed Cheng Yunchuan away, pointed at Lu Jingshen and shouted, "Do you dare to say that you haven't done anything to let me down?"
Lu Jingshen looked at Jiang Mubai's angry expression, his heart filled with helplessness and pain. He knew that Jiang Mubai would not believe anything he said now.
"Mu Bai, me!"
"That's enough!" Jiang Mubai interrupted Lu Jingshen: "I don't want to hear your explanation anymore! Let's get divorced!"
"Divorce?" Lu Jingshen looked at Jiang Mubai in disbelief: "Mubai, calm down. There must be some misunderstanding between us."
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding is there!" Jiang Mubai sneered: "Lu Jingshen, I am really blind to fall in love with a man like you!"
After saying that, Jiang Mubai turned around and ran out of the villa. Cheng Yunchuan looked at Lu Jingshen deeply, then turned around and chased after him.
Lu Jingshen sat down dejectedly on the chair, looking at the photo in his hand, his eyes empty and confused. He didn't know what was going on. He only knew that he lost Jiang Mubai, the woman he loved most.
Cheng Yunchuan caught up with Jiang Mubai, hugged her tightly in his arms and let her cry. He knew that at this moment, the only thing he could do was to stay with her and give her comfort and strength.
"Yunchuan, what should I do? I...I..." Jiang Mubai cried inconsolably.
Cheng Yunchuan patted Jiang Mubai's back gently and said softly, "Mubai, don't be afraid. I'm here. No matter what happens, I will be with you."
Jiang Mubai hugged Cheng Yunchuan tightly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
As night fell and the lights came on, Cheng Yunchuan brought Jiang Mubai to a high-end restaurant.
"Mu Bai, you haven't eaten for a day. Please eat something." Cheng Yunchuan said with concern.
Jiang Mubai shook his head, he had no appetite.
Cheng Yunchuan sighed helplessly, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of steak and brought it to Jiang Mubai's mouth.
Jiang Mubai looked at Cheng Yunchuan's gentle eyes and finally opened his mouth.
The two ate in silence, no one spoke.
Suddenly, a news report appeared on the TV in the restaurant: the famous movie star Ji Wanru was arrested by the police on suspicion of intentional injury.
Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan raised their heads at the same time and watched the news report on the TV screen.
There was a gleam of light in Cheng Yunchuan's eyes, and he seemed to have thought of something.
"Mu Bai, I think I know who is framing us." Cheng Yunchuan said in a deep voice.
"Who?" Jiang Mubai asked doubtfully.
Cheng Yunchuan raised his lips into a cold smile and said word by word: "Ji! Wan! Ru!"
At this time, a waiter came over with an envelope in his hand and handed it to Cheng Yunchuan.
"Sir, someone asked me to give this to you," said the waiter.
Cheng Yunchuan took the envelope, opened it, and saw a note inside with a line of words written on it:
If you want to know the truth, come to Jianghai Wharf.
Cheng Yunchuan's face turned gloomy in an instant. He had a premonition that a bigger conspiracy was waiting for them.
A cold wind was blowing fiercely at Jianghai Wharf late at night. Jiang Mubai pulled his windbreaker tighter, trying to dispel the bone-chilling cold.
Even so, the doubts in her heart were colder than Jiang Feng. Cheng Yunchuan stood beside her, silently staring at the gray water in front of him, with a solemn expression on his face.
"Yunchuan, are you sure you want to come here?" Jiang Mubai's voice gently broke the silence of the night sky, with a hint of uneasiness.
Cheng Yunchuan did not answer immediately. He looked at her with a look of indescribable complex emotions, as if he was both determined and uneasy. He nodded gently and held her cold hand.
"Mu Bai, I know you are afraid. Don't worry, I will never let you face any danger alone."
These words were like a warm current, temporarily calming Jiang Mubai's rapidly beating heart.
She nodded, but she was still worried. Who sent the letter? How did Ji Wanru get involved with her? How many unknown secrets were hidden behind all this?
The night grew darker, and the lights on the dock were dim and sparse. Apart from the two of them, there was no one around. The only sound they could hear was the waves hitting the embankment. Cheng Yunchuan held Jiang Mubai's hand and walked to the location specified in the letter.
This is an old warehouse, and it is so quiet that you can almost hear your heartbeat.
"This place always feels like a shady deal from a movie." Jiang Mubai whispered nervously, trying to lighten the mood with humor.
Cheng Yunchuan smiled lightly but did not relax his vigilance. He stopped at the door of the warehouse and blocked Jiang Mubai behind him.
"Don't come near, I'll go in and take a look."
"No!" Jiang Mubai protested immediately: "It's so dangerous, do you think you are Superman? I want to go with you!"
Cheng Yunchuan turned his head, his expression softened. He whispered to comfort her, "Mu Bai, I know you care about me, but I don't want you to take risks. You're already too deeply involved in this matter."
Jiang Mubai bit his lip, but still said firmly: "If you want to go in, I won't stay outside."
Cheng Yunchuan's eyes showed a hint of indulgence and helplessness, but he did not refuse again. He sighed and said, "Okay, but you have to listen to my arrangements."
The two men pushed open the iron door of the warehouse, and a stale smell hit their noses.
The warehouse was dimly lit, with many dusty wooden boxes stacked in the corner. Cheng Yunchuan carefully looked around, with Jiang Mubai following closely behind him.
Just as the two of them were getting deeper, a strong flashlight suddenly lit up, blinding Jiang Mubai so much that he subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes.
"Who is it!" Cheng Yunchuan shouted coldly, protecting Jiang Mubai with his body, and looking vigilantly in the direction of the light.
The source of the light moved slowly, and finally a figure was revealed. It was a middle-aged man with a sinister smile. He slowly approached with a small pistol in his hand, pointing the gun directly at Cheng Yunchuan.
"Long time no see, Cheng Yunchuan. I didn't expect you to find this place in person." The man's voice was low and there was a creepy malicious tone in it.
