Chapter 323: Ban Sheng An’ning Completely
Jiang Xuecheng knew of Mr. Chen’s existence too?
She initially thought she had found herself a card in her hand.
There was a pain in Sheng An’ning’s heart. Her pretty face was ghastly pale and she forced herself to calm down and tried to keep herself awake.
“Brother Xuecheng, what are you talking about? I don’t understand…”
Jiang Xuecheng tilted his head to look at her. His thin lips were pursed and his perfect facial contour was tight. One could easily see his anger and disdain at the moment.
“Pretending not to know? You hadn’t returned from abroad yet in March, how could you have gotten someone to take the picture of Wan Wan and Lu Qingyu having lunch together?”
Sheng An’ning looked at Jiang Xuecheng’s cold and handsome face. Tears filled her eyes and they flowed down her pretty face. It was such a sad sight.
“She had lunch with another man behind your back. Shouldn’t you be angry?”
“Wan Wan told me when she returned home that day.”
Jiang Xuecheng was indifferent. He sneered and looked at Sheng An’ning with disgust. He was indifferent to her instigation.
Respect and trust should be mutual. Jiang Xuecheng respected Su Wan as well as her personal freedom.
He wouldn’t want to tie Su Wan to himself. How could a bird kept in the cage have inner spirit?
Sheng An’ning examined the man in front of her sadly. Suddenly, she saw the wedding ring on his finger.
His fingers were distinct, fair and long, and that simple but elegant silver male ring did not make him look feminine but instead brought out the elegance in him.
Jiang Xuecheng was a person who never wore jewelry but he had made exceptions for this woman called Su Wan.
Moreover, Sheng An’ning had heard Luo Xiuxiu mention that Jiang Xuecheng was the one who had designed their wedding rings just to give Su Wan a unique surprise.
Why? Why was the person who could enter Jiang Xuecheng’s heart not her?
Every time Sheng An’ning thought of this point, she would gnash her teeth in frustration.
“Brother Xuecheng, don’t you want to know about Mr. Chen? I do know lots about him but I won’t say a single word unless you divorce Su Wan.”
In fact, Sheng An’ning’s understanding of Mr. Chen was very limited. She had not seen that man since the last time she had been taken to him by force.
If she were to really tell Jiang Xuecheng everything, she wouldn’t be able to provide any useful information.
Sheng An’ning did a check on Mr. Chen but it hadn’t been successful. The emails sent to her were all from overseas accounts, making tracking tricky.
How much could she know about a mysterious man like this?
It would be better to bet on the weight of Mr. Chen in Jiang Xuecheng’s heart to separate Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan!
Hearing her stubbornness, Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes swept across Sheng An’ning. His eyes were sharp and were as cold as ice.
“It’s not that you don’t want to tell me but you don’t know anything about him, do you?”
Sheng An’ning didn’t expect Jiang Xuecheng to call her out on her lie with one sentence. She raised her brows and creases appeared on her forehead.
“Brother Xuecheng, how can you be so sure?”
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Sheng An’ning coldly. His voice was as calm as the water flowing under the bridge but this voice was like a bomb which exploded suddenly in Sheng An’ning’s ears.
“I’ve just gotten someone to hack your computer and mobile phone.”
Unfortunately, there was very little useful information in Sheng An’ning’s database, especially in tracking Mr. Chen’s identity. It seemed that the line was broken suddenly.
Mr. Chen seldom gave Sheng An’ning orders. The email address used every time was different. The only conjecture which could be made was that they were all overseas accounts.
The clues were easily broken when one investigated.
If they knew Mr. Chen’s capital chain, it would be easier for them to trace through his capital account but unfortunately, both Su Yurou and Sheng An’ning had no financial relationship with Mr. Chen.
Jiang Xuecheng went into deep thought and his deep eyes were as if covered by a layer of fog. No one could see his emotions clearly.
Ever since Sheng An’ning heard that Jiang Xuecheng had found someone to hack into her phone and computer, her head kept pounding and that buzzing sound made her lose all energy to think.
Sheng An’ning looked at Jiang Xuecheng in disbelief. Her pretty face was almost distorted.
“How could you invade my privacy?”
Sheng An’ning’s accusation fell into Jiang Xuecheng’s ears but he didn’t even move his eyelids. His eyes were deep and cold, sending chills down people’s spines.
“It’s better than watching you slander others.”
Sheng An’ning took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
However, how could she calm down?
Although she had deleted all the emails, with Jiang Xuecheng’s technical means, it would be easy to retrieve that information.
If the evidence came out on the table, how could she preserve her facade of a flawless, clean, and ethereal fairy in the eyes of her fans?
Sheng An’ning’s body trembled uncontrollably and Jiang Xuecheng could see her fear at one glance.
A cold sneer ran through his eyes and his voice was very distant.
“You cutting your wrist this time has badly impacted the company. You don’t have to be on any shows from now on. This will be the end of your career in showbiz.”
Jiang Xuecheng knew Sheng An’ning’s true weakness. What Sheng An’ning yearned for was to stand on the stage and to have the feeling of being surrounded and loved by people.
Shattering Sheng An’ning’s path in the showbiz, to her, was undoubtedly more painful than death.
Was he completely banning her?
Sheng An’ning met Jiang Xuecheng’s indifferent eyes. Her pale lips kept trembling. Just when she was about to plead, Jiang Xuecheng turned around and showed her only an indifferent back!
Did this man have to be so heartless to her?
Sheng An’ning’s red eyes after crying started tearing up instantly. Her weak face looked as if she would be knocked down upon the blowing of a gentle wind.
Unfortunately, there was no one else in the room except her to take pity on her.
***
Su Wan, who was waiting outside, was having a light conversation with Xu Ziyao. Su Wan realized Xu Ziyao was much calmer than she had imagined.
Such a big thing had happened and when countless people were slandering her, Xu Ziyao’s attitude toward her was no different from the past.
It seemed that it was good to have such a wise mother-in-law. Although Xu Ziyao didn’t like her daughter-in-law, she wouldn’t deliberately be against her. She was calm when things happened and would not easily be misled by rumors.
When Su Wan heard the door being opened, she turned to look and saw that handsome and cold face.
“Xuecheng.”
Su Wan went forward in pleasant surprise and when Jiang Xuecheng saw her, his look became warmer as he nodded at her.
Jiang Haoxuan who was waiting outside, looked at Jiang Xuecheng anxiously. “Brother, how’s An’ning?”
