Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her

Chapter 492

Xiao Linye dropped her off at the studio. Before she got out of the car, he gave her another number, saying it was for work. He obviously didn’t want a repeat of yesterday when she couldn’t reach him.「At the office.」

Ye Yuning took her medication first.

Luo Xin had thought she wouldn’t come in today, so she was surprised to see her and asked with concern, "Boss, are you alright?"

"I’m fine," Ye Yuning waved her hand.

Luo Xin nodded. "The bed I prepared for you will be delivered this morning. I bought the bedding last night after work, and I’ve already washed it and brought it over."

Luo Xin was clearly trained by Chen Wei; their meticulousness was identical!

Ye Yuning nodded. "Thank you."

Luo Xin turned and left.

Ye Yuning directly dialed Tang Xi’s number.

Tang Xi should have been free by then. As soon as the call connected, she answered, "Ningning, baby."

"Are you busy now?"

"I’m getting my makeup done; I have a shoot in an hour. Go ahead, what’s up?"

Hearing Tang Xi was just getting her makeup done, Ye Yuning knew she wasn’t too busy.

She was somewhat conflicted, not knowing where to start!

Eventually, she blurted out, "Qian Qian, I think I might have been deceived!"

Tang Xi was silent for a beat on the other end of the line. Then she asked, "Who deceived you?"

"My husband..."

At these words, a sharp intake of breath could be heard from the other side.

"What are you saying? Deceived you? What do you mean? Ye Yuning, tell me what this means!"

Upon hearing the word ’deceit,’ Tang Xi couldn’t remain calm.

"I told you before, you need to be careful! Men are great at pretending when they first get interested in you. You said he was different from Jiang Bo. Now do you see? They’re all the same!"

Tang Xi was very agitated, her words tumbling out.

Ye Yuning was momentarily speechless.

All the same, huh?

"No, he really is different from Jiang Bo."

That Jiang Bo! He was so obviously calculating, and his parents were such blatant social climbers!

"Are you still defending him? Then tell me, what exactly did he deceive you about?"

Tang Xi was furious! Her tone practically screamed that Ye Yuning was hopeless.

A man had deceived her, and she could still speak well of him? Just how forgiving could Ningning be?

Ye Yuning said, "I called him yesterday and couldn’t get through. So, I called the business department of Xiao Corporation, and they said there’s no Manager Xiao!"

"No Manager Xiao? Isn’t he the manager of Xiao Corporation’s business department?!" Tang Xi asked, puzzled.

Ye Yuning replied, "Yeah, that’s what he told me."

Tang Xi fell silent.

He said that, but when she called the department, they said there was no Manager Xiao? Then what on earth was going on?

"Maybe the person who answered the phone was new," Tang Xi suggested.

"It would have been fine if it were a new person. But the second time I called, Xiao Lin’s assistant answered. He’d surely know the company’s personnel, right?"

If it had only been the first call, Ye Yuning might have brushed it off with that excuse. But it was the second call she made! And the person who answered was Lai Shuo!

Tang Xi gasped again. "Then what exactly is going on?"

How could this have happened?

Ye Yuning said, "I don’t know either!"

She truly didn’t know what was going on. If she did, things would be much simpler. Her mind was a complete mess now.

Tang Xi asked, "So, did he really deceive you?"

Initially, like Ye Yuning, Tang Xi thought that if it had just been one phone call, it could easily have been a mistake. But someone Ye Yuning knew had answered the second call...

"Are you sure you didn’t mishear the voice on your second call?"

"No way. I’d recognize that person’s voice even if he were burnt to ashes. He’s so annoying!"

Tang Xi had no words.

The voice wasn’t misidentified. That meant Ye Yuning really had been deceived.

After the Jiang Bo incident, Tang Xi had always felt her judgment of people wasn’t great. Ye Yuning, on the other hand, had steered clear of romance for years; she should have been more astute. How could she get deceived like this? But then again, Ye Yuning hadn’t really looked closely, had she? She’d just married someone on a whim!

Tang Xi sighed, "You, oh, you... What am I going to do with you..."

"So what should I do now? I’m pregnant too!" Ye Yuning was close to tears.

Upon hearing she was also pregnant, Tang Xi was even more aghast. "What were you thinking? Even if he hadn’t lied to you, aren’t you deceiving him as well? How could you dare get pregnant under these circumstances?" Tang Xi was truly floored.

Ye Yuning said, "Daring or not, I’m already pregnant, aren’t I? I just want to figure things out now—how much has he deceived me?"

"So what do you mean by that? Is the deception okay with you? Tell me, if he isn’t the manager of the business department, but just a rank-and-file employee, what would you plan to do?"

Tang Xi felt like she was going crazy! What on earth was this situation? Were they into mutual deception or something? These two were playing a game ordinary people couldn’t even begin to understand... The crucial point was, they had been together for so long, Ye Yuning had only just realized it, and *he* still hadn’t noticed a thing!
