Huayu96: My Thirty Years of a Prodigal Son

The door of the nanny van was opened.

It was Sister Zhang who came back with her son, whom she had just picked up from kindergarten.

Seeing Zeng Li sobbing uncontrollably in the back seat, Sister Zhang was startled.

She quickly pulled her son into the car, went to Zeng Li's side, and asked with concern, "Ah Li, what's wrong?"

Zeng Li didn't answer at all, she just kept crying.

Ms. Zhang was completely confused, so she turned to look at the driver's seat.

The driver, Lao Liu, was there the whole time; he should know what was going on.

Unexpectedly, Lao Liu waved his hand at her, indicating that it was not convenient to explain at the moment.

Helpless, Sister Zhang could only pat Zeng Li on the shoulder to comfort her while instructing Old Liu, "Let's go back to where Ali is staying first."

The car started smoothly and began to head back.

Half an hour later, we arrived at our destination.

Zeng Li had stopped crying by now, but her eyes were glazed over.

Sister Zhang wanted to check on Zeng Li, but Zeng Li had already mechanically pushed open the car door, dragged her suitcase, and entered the community without looking back.

In the van, Sister Zhang could no longer contain her curiosity and turned to look at the driver, Lao Liu.

"Old Liu, what exactly happened just now?"

Old Liu then told Sister Zhang what he had just observed with a wry smile.

Upon hearing this, Sister Zhang's mouth dropped open in astonishment.

"You mean, that person over there is Qin Sheng, and he was caught cheating by Ali?"

Old Liu nodded.

"That should be the case."

Sister Zhang was immediately thrown into a state of utter confusion.

This is a big deal!

After a moment of panic, Sister Zhang said to Old Liu, "Quick! Get back to the company! I need to report this to Sister Zhao!"

In the residential compound, Zeng Li pulled her suitcase into the living room.

The room was indeed empty.

Zeng Li sat blankly on the sofa, her mind a complete blank.

She couldn't understand why Qin Sheng, who had smiled and kissed her goodbye that morning, would turn around and go to a hotel with another woman.

Why?

She loved him so much! She was willing to do anything for him!

I tried my best to meet all his requests, even those he didn't mention!

Why would he betray me?

Is there anything I could have done better?

The next moment, Zeng Li realized that she had been so busy these past few days that she hadn't been able to properly serve Qin Sheng.

Could it be because of this?

Zeng Li was immediately dejected.

After a while of lost in thought, she suddenly snapped back to reality.

Qin Sheng went to a hotel to check in and will probably be back in two or three hours.

But she had no idea how to face Qin Sheng right now.

She couldn't accept Qin Sheng's betrayal, but she also couldn't accept breaking up with him.

During this period, I have devoted all my energy to Qin Sheng and dare not even think about leaving him.

After a moment of panic, Zeng Li got up from the sofa and grabbed the suitcase she had just put down.

We have to go!

Can't stay at home!

If you can't face it, then run away from it for now!

Dragging his suitcase out of the residential area, Zeng Li wandered aimlessly for a long time before stopping in front of an unfamiliar hotel. He then went in with his head down and booked a room.

Once inside the room, Zeng Li pushed her suitcase into a corner, then lay flat on the bed and began staring blankly at the ceiling.

I don't know how much time passed, but the phone in my bag suddenly rang.

Zeng Li was startled, thinking it was Qin Sheng calling.

He hurriedly got up and pulled out his phone, only to find that the name flashing on the screen was not Qin Sheng, but Sister Zhao.

Zeng Li was stunned for a moment, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hello, Sister Zhao."

On the other end of the phone, Sister Zhao's voice was crisp and clear, without a single wasted word.

"Where are you?"

Zeng Li was silent for a few seconds before stating the hotel's location and room number.

"Wait for me there, I'll be there in thirty minutes."

The call ended abruptly.

Zeng Li held his phone, somewhat bewildered. How did Sister Zhao know that he was in trouble?

But her confused mind made her too lazy to think about it further, and she continued to lie in bed, lost in thought.

Zhao Jie's news was reported by her assistant, Zhang Jie, and driver, Lao Liu.

Qin Sheng took another woman to a hotel room, and Zeng Li caught them in the act!

After listening to the report, Sister Zhao rubbed her temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

Having been in the industry for so many years, Sister Zhao wasn't surprised at all by Qin Sheng's infidelity.

She's seen far too much!

As far as I know, even a minor celebrity like Qin Sheng would cheat on several women in private, let alone someone like him!

Such a talented, handsome, mature, and successful high-quality boy—I can't even imagine how many temptations he encounters in his daily life!

Infidelity was only a matter of time!

Sister Zhao didn't care at all about these trivial matters of love between men and women.

As a seasoned professional agent, she only cares about one thing.

That means neither of them can get into trouble, otherwise it will affect the company's profits!

And it affects the company's ability to make big money!

Qin Sheng's commercial value is so great that it may even be worth hundreds of millions!

He can be considered the absolute business king of the company at present!

Although Zeng Li's commercial value is somewhat lower than Qin Sheng's, he is under my command and his commission is closely related to me!

Neither of these two can be allowed to get into trouble!

Fortunately, this matter was only discovered privately by Zeng Li and has not been made public in the media.

As long as Zeng Li is dealt with properly, the matter can be resolved perfectly.

As for how to properly resolve the Zeng Li issue?

Of course, we need to persuade her to accept reality!

Can you really advise us to break up?

She's a niche singer who only became famous because of Qin Sheng's songs. Although she's good-looking, her singing skills are just average.

Once you fall out with Qin Sheng, without his personalized support and backing, you'll quickly fade into obscurity.

Therefore, I will absolutely not allow Zeng Li to lose Qin Sheng!

In other words, Zeng Li must forgive Qin Sheng!

Half an hour later, there was a knock on the hotel room door.

Zeng Li opened the door blankly.

Sister Zhao walked in, wearing high heels, and deftly locked the door behind her.

Looking at Zeng Li's swollen eyes and pale face, Sister Zhao sighed inwardly, but showed no sympathy on her face.

She walked to the bedside, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

"Ah Li, I'm here today not to listen to your complaints, nor to offer you any comfort."

I've come to welcome you into the adult world and to tell you what the rules of the adult world are.

Zeng Li was taken aback upon hearing this.

She thought Sister Zhao had come to comfort her, but what Sister Zhao said was completely unexpected.

"The adult world? The rules of the adult world..."

Zeng Li repeated the two sentences in a low voice.

Sister Zhao nodded.

"That's right, Ali. Although you are an adult on your ID card, you are only just beginning to experience the adult world."

Sister Zhao leaned forward slightly and looked directly at Zeng Li.

"What I'm about to tell you might overturn your understanding, but I can assure you that this is the absolutely true rule of how the adult world works."
