Chapter 618 - Suspicion
Chapter 618 Suspicion
“If my mother loved Neya, she would have been with her.” Yan Nuo suspected that Ji Yinbing was mistaken. “You really saw it?”
“Yeah.”
Ji Yinbing thought about it carefully and said, “If you didn’t ask anyone to clean it, the diary should still be there.”
Yan Nuo felt that there was something strange about this.
He said, “I’ll make a call.”
Yan Nuo called La Pu and the two of them picked up the video call. Under Yan Nuo’s instructions, La Pu arrived on the fourth floor. He opened the study and entered. When the study and Ji Yinbing went in three years, they were almost the same. “Where?” Yan Nuo pulled Ji Yinbing to his side.
La Pu greeted Madam respectfully.
Ji Yinbing nodded and said, “Butler La Pu, look under the desk and under the right foot.”
La Pu agreed. He placed the phone on the bookshelf behind him and bent down. Under Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing’s gaze, he bent down and crawled behind the desk. He searched inside for a while and said in surprise, “Sir, there’s really a notebook.”
Butler La Pu took out his notebook. Yan Nuo said, “Open it and take a look.”
La Pu did as he was told.
He read as he read.
After reading only two or three pages, La Pu said, “This is complete nonsense! How can Madam Yan Mei love Neya?”
Yan Nuo remained silent and said, “Continue reading.”
La Pu read the page again.
In this diary, the entire passage recorded Yan Mei’s infatuation with Neya, as well as the pain of not being able to love her. In the latter part of the diary, there was one more main character in the diary, and that was Angus. In the diary, Yan Mei treated Angus as a substitute for Neya, and the reason was only that their backs were more similar.
At the back of the diary, Yan Mei said that although she had a substitute by her side, she still often missed the days and nights she used to spend with Neya. She said that she yearned for Neya’s touch, hug, and passionate contact. She said that although she had a child, and although she also had an attachment to Angus, she could never find the feeling of being with Neya.
Yan Nuo listened quietly as La Pu read most of the diary.
Ji Yinbing accompanied him and did not disturb him.
When he heard the increasingly difficult filthy words, Yan Nuo suddenly said, “La Pu, there’s no need to read anymore.” His voice was cold and unnecessary, and it was already filled with killing intent.
La Pu quickly shut up. He said boldly to Yan Nuo, “Sir, in my opinion, the origin of this diary is worth investigating.”
How could Yan Nuo not know this?
This diary was clearly fabricated by someone. He asked La Pu, “Who knows the best about what happened between Mother and Neya?”
La Pu thought about it and suddenly his expression changed. He said, “More. There are the mercenary higher-ups that the Black Fiend used to be, and Mr. Neya’s wife, Madam Annita.” La Pu added, “But only Madam Annita knows these private things.”
Yan Nuo suddenly said, “Madam Annita, do you know that Mr. Neya likes my mother?”
“This…” La Pu shook his head in confusion. “I don’t know.”
Seeing that La Pu really did not know, Yan Nuo hung up. He pulled Ji Yinbing up and said, “Let’s go downstairs to find Angus. Later, do as I say.”
The two of them muttered something before going downstairs together. Almost everyone was in the living room downstairs. Some were watching television, some were playing games, and some were sad about their phones. Only Angus was outstanding. He sat on the sofa and listened to classical music with a facial mask. Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing were inviting everyone to the garden for coffee.
Everyone went. Angus took off his facial mask and did the rest of the skincare steps before he arrived.
As soon as he sat down, he said, “It’s not good for the body to drink too much coffee. I’ll drink pure water.” Then, the butler got the servant to bring a cup of pure water.
Angus took a sip and closed his eyes to bask in the sun.
Ji Yinbing suddenly asked Angus, “Mr. Angus, sunscreen is actually very important. Do you apply sunscreen when you’re sunbathing?” Only then did Angus open his eyes and size her up.
“Of course.” He was interested and said, “I use N’s sunscreen. It’s a little expensive, but it works.”
Ji Yinbing praised his taste.
Out of courtesy, Angus praised her for her good skin.
After chatting with Angus for a while, Ji Yinbing and Yan Yu talked about the movie. After Yan Yu finished a third-level ethics film she watched, Ji Yinbing spoke about a movie she had seen. “I once saw a movie in China called ‘Substitution’.”
“How’s the plot?”
“It’s melodramatic.”
Angus looked deeper when he heard the word substitute.
Yan Nuo had been paying attention to Angus’s mood changes. Seeing that his gaze had changed when he heard the name substitute, his heart moved slightly, and he observed even more carefully.
Ji Yinbing’s voice entered their ears from the side. “The story is really quite melodramatic. It’s about a couple who are very in love with each other. They’ve been through many twists and turns together. Really, it’s especially not easy for them to get together. Just as the two of them were planning to be together, the melodramatic came.” Yan Yu pricked up her ears and listened.
Ji Yinbing said, “Didn’t the second male lead always like the female lead? He confessed to the female lead before, but she rejected him. Later on, the second male lead got together with another woman, but he still remained the female lead’s knight. After that, the second male lead’s girlfriend realized the second male lead’s feelings for the female lead and was jealous.” “After that, the second male lead and his girlfriend quarreled. The argument was especially unpleasant, so they even broke up. The girl thought that all of this was caused by the female lead. In order to take revenge on the female lead, guess what she did?”.
Upon hearing this, she thought for a moment and said, “The male girlfriend who slept with the female lead?”
Ji Yinbing was silent.
Sister, Sister, why didn’t you follow the script?
She maintained her smile and shook her head. She said, “That’s not right.”
Sha Zelong suddenly interrupted and said, “Since it’s called a substitute, it must be related to the substitute plot.” With that, Sha Zelong lowered his head and continued reading
Yan Yu immediately understood. She said, “In order to break up the male and female leads, the girl deliberately fabricated a lie to make the male lead believe that the female lead loved him because she treated him as a substitute?”
“You’re right!” Ji Yinbing praised her for being
smart.
When Yan Yu was commenting on this story, she did not notice how gloomy Angus’s expression was. Angus suddenly stood up and made a huge commotion, almost overturning the coffee table.
Everyone looked at Angus in surprise.
“What’s wrong?” Zhuang Long asked him considerately.
Angus quickly regained his composure.
He shook his head and said, “I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with. I’ll go back to my room to deal with it first. You guys talk.”
“…Okay.”
