Chapter 124 - A cheating scum and his mistress (2)
“I did find out something. I don’t know if it would be useful to you so you can see for yourself?”
His tone suggested that he found out something very useful. Shu Yan took the information from him and on the very top was Fan Xiaomei, owner of the kid’s clothing store. The information on her was relatively simple. She was from Province Ning, married, and has a 2-year-old son. She was also a cousin of Le and she just opened up the kid’s clothing store with Le’s help earlier this year.
The second set of documents was on Zhu Hung. She was a native of City Nan. Her husband was a manager at a factory and she has a men’s clothing store. She used to live on Fujian Road Block X, Floor X, Building X. Shu Yan paid particular attention to the address. That was the rental that she had. So that house belonged to Zhu Hung?
Shu Yan couldn’t help but wonder about the timing of the incidents. She had just got into a spat with Le then the landlord brother-in-law came? That sounded very much like an excuse for Zhu Hung to take her place back.
She immediately opened up Le’s information. Le was 20 years old. She came to work in City Nan after graduating junior high school when she was 16. She was referred by a friend to be a nanny for a wealthy family. When her female boss found out that she was having an affair with her husband later on, she beat Le up and tossed her out.
The female boss’s own family was no ordinary family. The male employer owed his success to his father-in-law. He knelt and begged his wife for forgiveness at the time; but shortly after that, he had resumed his affair with Le. He even bought her a house in City Nan and helped her open up a clothing store.
Shu Yan looked up at Lao Hu in disbelief, “Are you sure about this?”
“Very sure. This was a big deal at the time and many knew about it. The news only didn’t spread too much out of respect for the female boss. If I didn’t look into it specifically, I wouldn’t even know that he was keeping her outside. His reputation had been quite good recently. He always acted like he was very in love with his wife.” The magnitude of the information surprised even Lao Hu. He pulled out another piece of paper and handed it over to Shu Yan. “This is the man’s address and his home phone number.”
Shu Yan looked up and smiled at Lao Hu, “You are so thorough in your work.”
“You know, being thorough is very important in our field.” Lao Hu was quite proud of himself.
“Alright. Thank you so much.” Shu Yan added an extra 100 yuan when she paid him the remaining amount. “I don’t want anyone else to find out about it.”
“Oh, don’t worry. That goes without saying. I have a reputation to keep.”
With the information in hand, a look of viciousness flashed through Shu Yan’s face. She thought all Le did was just pranks like poking a few holes in her merchandise. She didn’t expect her to go as far as having Zhu Hung take her house back. It wouldn’t have been a big deal if it was just her by herself; she could easily find a motel or something. But she has two children. If that was how she wanted to play it, Shu Yan would play with her.
Shu Yan wasn’t one to sit around. She went over to a public phone on her way back and called the man up. It was lunchtime and someone picked it up right away.
“Hello? Who is this?” It was a very tender voice.
“Hi, is this Zhang Baizong’s house?”
“Yes, who is this?” The woman frowned slightly. She had been having a bad feeling lately as though something bad was going to happen.
“Do you know of a Yang Le?”
The woman’s heart dropped. She turned her head and glanced over at the man who was eating lunch at the table and said, “Of course. Is this she?”
