Chapter 28 - Chapter-27 The Honest Husband(18+)

In an office at a factory over a thousand kilometers away, a kind and scholarly-looking middle-aged man was massaging his forehead with his fingers. It was Jiang Tianyi, who was on a business trip. Earlier, the company's senior executives had held a meeting to discuss disputes over newly acquired construction materials. However, halfway through the meeting, he suddenly felt restless, and the meeting ended abruptly without any resolution. As Jiang Tianyi rubbed his temples, wondering how to solve the problem, someone knocked on the door.

"Huff… Come in!" Jiang Tianyi let out a heavy breath and looked up.

The door opened, and a vibrant, attractive young woman walked in, holding several documents. She placed them one by one on Jiang Tianyi's desk.

"Director Jiang, these are the materials requested by the engineering department, which need your signature for approval. And this is the contract with XX Company, also requiring your signature."

"Mm, alright. Leave them here. I'll take a look in a moment."

"Oh, and while you were in the meeting, a woman called you, but she hung up without saying anything."

"Oh? Let me see."

Jiang Tianyi took the phone and checked—it was an unfamiliar number, but it was from his hometown. He dialed the number, but no one answered before the call disconnected. Of course, that was the expected outcome. Wang Kai detested interruptions during intimate moments, so he had set his phone to silent mode. At that moment, Wang Kai and Lin Mengjie were sound asleep in bed, so naturally, no one would answer.

Seeing that no one picked up, Jiang Tianyi didn't dwell on it. He assumed it was probably a relative or friend from his hometown trying to reach him. If it was important, they would surely call back.

"Hmm… No one's answering. Alright, I'll notify you after I've signed these."

"Okay, Director Jiang. I'll step out now."

Jiang Tianyi nodded, and the assistant turned and left the office. He lowered his head and began reviewing the applications and contracts, but after a while, he still felt unsettled. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest. Just then, his phone chimed. Jiang Tianyi opened it and saw that his son, Jiang Yun, had posted a new update—a few photos with Su Qing, ending with a smug-looking selfie.

"That little rascal, really… Hmm, come to think of it, I've been so busy with work since I got here that I haven't called home yet."

Looking at the photos of Jiang Yun and Su Qing, Jiang Tianyi thought of his wife, Lin Mengjie. He sighed inwardly, feeling that she had endured so much hardship, raising Jiang Yun single-handedly and doing such an outstanding job. Reflecting on this eased much of his restlessness and anxiety. Truth be told, he had grown weary of the loneliness and isolation and was even considering returning to the company headquarters to take on a less demanding role. After years of hard work, he had achieved all he needed to; it was time to shift his focus to his family and spend more time with his wife and child.

Then, he recalled the intimate moment he had shared with his wife just before he left a few days ago, which had unfortunately been interrupted by their son. A warmth stirred in his heart, and he picked up the phone, ready to call his wife for a heartfelt chat.

But things don't always go as planned. Just as Jiang Tianyi found Lin Mengjie's number and was about to dial, his assistant, Xiao Liu, burst into the office in a panic. "Director Jiang, something terrible has happened at the construction site!"

"Calm down. What happened?"

"The materials really had issues. The building just collapsed and injured several workers. It seems there might even be... someone... someone..."

"Let's go! Come with me, quick!"

Jiang Tianyi sprang up from his chair and rushed toward the construction site with Xiao Liu. A few people from nearby offices also hurriedly ran out, heading in the same direction. As for his phone, Jiang Tianyi had casually tossed it onto the table, missing the last chance for Lin Mengjie to learn the truth. What he didn't realize was that his wife, Lin Mengjie, believing he had been unfaithful, had entrusted her body and heart to another man. At that very moment, she lay in her student's arms like a kitten, submitting to his lewd advances.

By evening, Jiang Yun returned home with a beaming smile. After ringing the doorbell, he stood to the side, chuckling foolishly. Ever since leaving Su Qing's house, Jiang Yun had been slipping into fits of silly laughter from time to time. The driver who had just dropped him off nearly called the police, thinking he had picked up a madman. After a long while, Jiang Yun finally snapped out of it and realized no one had opened the door for him. With no other choice, he fished out his slightly bent key and tried to unlock the door. After fumbling for over a minute, he finally managed to open it. Jiang Yun swore to himself that he would find time to get a new key made.

Pushing the door open, he found the living room eerily quiet. Jiang Yun called out a couple of times but received no response. Puzzled, he headed toward his mother's bedroom. Just as he reached out to open the door, it swung open from the inside. Lin Mengjie emerged, dressed in formal attire, her expression cold and stern. Jiang Yun glanced inside and saw Wang Kai sitting at the desk, head bowed as if deeply engrossed in studying.

"Uh, Mom, you're home? Wang Kai, why are you still here so late?"

"Something came up at his home today, so he won't be going back tonight. Xiao Yun, you can squeeze in and share the bed with him."

"Huh? No way! I'm not sleeping with him. He can have the bed—I'll take the sofa!" Jiang Yun frowned and muttered under his breath.

"Why are you getting so stubborn lately? Fine, do as you please."

"Alright, Mom, I'll go tidy up my room first."

Jiang Yun turned and went back to his bedroom. Once he was gone, the tense expression on Lin Mengjie's face instantly collapsed. She let out a long sigh of relief.
