The luxury car was driven down the wide and clean streets of Wen City.

After sending her mother home, Lu Manman got the chauffeur to drive her to Sleepless Charm bar.

The moment she entered the bar, the dimness of the place, the atmosphere, and the music that some people could not withstand made her frown intuitively. It was only noon, but it was said that this place operated 24 hours a day, and it was the same way for all 24 hours. The music and the drinking never stopped.

Lu Manman stopped at the main lounge. An attendant politely came over and greeted her right away before taking her to one of the private rooms.

It was still the dazzling and stuffy room.

Lu Manman looked at Mo Yuanxiu who was sitting on the couch with a cocktail in his hand.

It was Ye Heng, as usual, who was sitting close to Mo Yuanxiu.

Ye Heng smiled when he saw Lu Manman. “It’s been long, Miss Lu.”

Lu Manman did not feel good the moment she saw Ye Heng.

She thought about the drink she had the last time she was here… and felt that it had something to do with this man.

“You’re here to look for Ah Xiu?” Ye Heng asked her in a rather casual tone. He was not like the other people she’d met in the high society, with their manners that were evidently hypocritical and superficial.

“Mm-hm, I have something to discuss with him.” Lu Manman was direct and clear. She then turned to glance at Mo Yuanxiu.

Mo Yuanxiu looked at Lu Manman, and then put his crossed leg down. He straightened up on the couch, and said to the surrounding hostesses, “Leave the room first.”

The several women exchanged glances.

Ye Heng waved them away as well. The women left reluctantly.

After they left, someone turned on the main light in the private room. The dazzling clear chandelier brightened up the room.

Lu Manman could see Mo Yuanxiu clearly now, but realized that there was no sign of him having had a drink.

Did this man hold his liquor very well? Or was he just very good at putting up a front?

Lu Manman did not reveal what she was thinking about him. Instead, she asked in her clear voice, “Does he not need to leave the room?”

“He” referred to Ye Heng.

“He doesn’t have to.” It was a firm declaration of Mo Yuanxiu’s unusual relationship with Ye Heng.

“Alright.” Lu Manman wasn’t hung up over it. Since she had decided to collaborate with Mo Yuanxiu, she did not want to think or ask for too much. Moreover, she might really need Ye Heng’s help as well in this.

After a second’s pause, Lu Manman got to the point. “When I got you to investigate Wen Yun back then, I was really too slipshod. I did not think that Wen Yun would hide it so well.”

“So…”

“I thought a lot on the way here, and only came up with one way.” Lu Manman looked at Mo Yuanxiu.

Mo Yuanxiu had been keeping his eyes on her. There wasn’t much expression on his cold face, as usual.

But Ye Heng, on the other hand, was looking at her meaningfully.

“If we can’t get Wen Yun to proactively do it, we can help him out,” Lu Manman said. Every word of hers reverberated in the quiet room.

The two men looked straight at Lu Manman, each with their own thoughts.

Lu Manman could not be bothered about how shocked they looked. She went on, “I am very sure that Wen Yun had an affair behind my back, but I can’t be sure when he started doing it and with whom, and I don’t have the time to figure that out now. What I know is that Jiang Yiyao is definitely interested in Wen Yun. Wen Yun is a cautious man, so he will definitely be on his best behavior over the next month until he marries me. But Jiang Yiyao won’t. Women lose control easily when it comes to the crucial moment. So, if Wen Yun isn’t going to be proactive, we can find a way to get Jiang Yiyao onto Wen Yun’s bed instead.”
