The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife

Chapter 449: Lady Dongfang’s Suspicion (First Update)

Recently, Yan Hao has been particularly unlucky; nothing seems to go his way. Trying to spend a night with a woman, that woman is either sick or followed by paparazzi, ending up on entertainment gossip news.What nonsense!

As a member of the Yan family in the Capital City, he’s not even in the entertainment circle, so why get mixed up in all this scandal?

Yet somehow, someone caused a fuss, and it blew up until it reached his father, Yan Shanchuan, who gave him a harsh scolding and cut off his allowance.

The few businesses he was involved in either had hygiene issues at a restaurant or product issues at a beauty salon, or even counterfeit goods showing up at a brand clothing store, leaving him completely overwhelmed.

The partners under his name also had problems with their businesses, either getting investigated by authorities or landing in the news with endless negative press.

This situation, for someone who was never short on spending money, suddenly turned him into a pauper.

Not only that, but every time he went out, he’d encounter car accidents, leaving him seriously injured, stuck in the hospital for weeks unable to even get out of bed, let alone cultivate.

Damn it!

Has he been possessed by a misfortune deity?

Settled into the hospital, Yan Hao finally got rid of that foolish woman, Zhan Zhengtong, and called Lady Dongfang: "Aunt Dongfang, can you help me? I don’t know why, but I’ve been so unlucky recently. Business has problems; I’ve even had a car accident and landed in the hospital."

"Actually, I have something to discuss with you too!" On the other end, the young and beautiful Lady Dongfang was also wearing a serious expression.

"Then come see me at the hospital. I can’t leave just yet. Don’t worry, that old woman has already gone home."

"What old woman are you talking about? That’s your mom."

Yan Hao pouted, "She’s not really my mom!"

"Ah Hao!" Lady Dongfang sighed, "You must always remember, she is your mom at every moment, without letting even the slightest slip show."

"Tsk!" Yan Hao said dismissively, "You really have the heart, not even recognizing your own son."

"Alright, alright, it’s only a matter of titles. Haven’t I treated you like you’re my son? You’re the only child I have; who else would I spoil?"

...

Yan Hao didn’t notice that while he was sweet-talking on the phone, Zhan Zhengtong, who had just brought him lunch, returned. She was about to knock when she heard Yan Hao’s words, "She’s not really my mom," and froze.

Then she heard him say, "You really have the heart, not even recognizing your own son."

Who was her son talking to?

Was it a joke?

But for some reason, her hand started shaking, unable to push the door open.

Yan Hao and Lady Dongfang agreed on a meeting time, and he calmed down, lying in the hospital bed waiting.

An hour later, Lady Dongfang arrived wearing a vintage green robe, resembling a beautiful green lotus, pure and natural.

As she pushed open the hospital room door, a hidden camera quietly retracted.

Soon, in a café, Zhan Zhengtong received a photo of the green-robed woman opening the hospital door.

Her entire being trembled, her hands shaking.

Was it her?

How could she be entering her son’s hospital room?

Though Lady Dongfang and she were old friends, she hadn’t informed her of her son’s car accident and hospital admission. How did Lady Dongfang know?

Moreover, what shocked Zhan Zhengtong even more was that her son’s relationship with Lady Dongfang was evidently closer than she anticipated. That kind of familiarity clearly demonstrated that the two had been secretly meeting behind her back.

But what would require them to meet in secret?

If not for the large age gap, with one being her best friend and the other her son, she might suspect they were having an affair.

Holding the photo, Zhan Zhengtong remained unsettled for a long time.

She didn’t know if what she overheard was just a joke her son was making or if it was the truth.

In the hospital room, Yan Hao was very happy to see the arrival of Lady Dongfang.

"You finally came!"

"You, eager for my visit?" Lady Dongfang teased, though her smile didn’t match her words; she was clearly pleased by what he said.

"Of course, you’re my savior! Aunt Dongfang, I’ve been extremely down on my luck recently; nothing goes right. If you hadn’t told me you were giving me a new life, I’d think I was the embodiment of misfortune."

Lady Dongfang’s smile thinned slightly. "So tell me, what exactly happened? Don’t leave out a single detail."

"Honestly, nothing happened, no warning signs. I was just like before, meditating, then arranged to meet Ying Feng, along with Zue Youqi and Lu Buding, for drinks together." At this point, Yan Hao rubbed his nose. "Aunt Dongfang, you know us playboys; drinking all day, then calling a few girls to liven things up!"

Lady Dongfang raised her eyebrows, half-smiling, "Just to liven things up?"

"Hehehe... After spicing things up, we made a stop at a hotel!"

Lady Dongfang had a look of "I knew it."

Yan Hao skipped the details and went straight to the outcome: "This kind of thing happens often; we’re a close-knit group, who doesn’t know whom? Usually, the girls that come around have clean backgrounds and have been checked, no issues. But this time, I don’t know how it happened; my girl turned out to have an STD... I was shocked, rushed to the hospital for a check-up. Luckily, I was fine, or else I’d kill that girl!"

"Afterwards, you didn’t cause any trouble for her?" Lady Dongfang didn’t quite believe it. She knew her son too well; full of petty and nasty habits, just like his dad.

However, Yan Shanchuan hid his malice deep, with few knowing. Yan Hao was too naive, everything showed on the surface.

That’s why she’s been telling Yan Hao to learn from his father whenever possible.

"Aunt Dongfang, I was so scared, of course, I settled accounts with her. But rest assured, you told me not to get involved in anything too bloody, so I didn’t act as an assassin on her, I just had a few people teach her a lesson."

"And then?"

"And then? Ever since then, I’ve been more careful with girls, making sure to drag them to the hospital first before getting near. But I never expected, even being cautious, something happened again. A nosy paparazzo took pictures, reporting about how chaotic the personal lives of Capital City’s playboys are, causing quite a buzz. My dad found out and cut my living expenses." Yan Hao was frustrated speaking of this.

"Hmm!"

"Aunt Dongfang, what’s the big deal? It’s just about being with a woman, my dad gets all angry as if he doesn’t sleep with women himself."

"But your dad, at least he didn’t create any scandals." Fresh chapters posted on novel•fire.net

"Tsk! That’s because he’s a master of disguise."

"Precisely, which is why you should learn from him."
