The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 916 - 326: Lu Jingchen and Li Man Get Into a Car Accident

She slid her long, pale fingers up and down over the multimedia message, repeatedly looking at those photographs, as if she hadn’t come to her senses for quite some time.

Truth be told, those surreptitiously taken photos seemed more complex than just Lu Jingchen appearing with another woman.

Moreover, she carefully examined the photos, and saw that the woman with Lu Jingchen was someone she had met before; previously seen outside with Lu Jingchen, apparently a close friend of Murong Rui, named Li Man...

Actually, from the moment Song Qiao saw Li Man, she had sensed Li Man’s dead-in-the-water feelings toward Lu Jingchen. It wasn’t because her woman’s intuition was too sensitive, but because Li Man’s demeanor was unmistakably clear. Her gaze was openly fixated on Lu Jingchen.

Now, thinking back, Song Qiao started doubting whether Lu Jingchen could have been unaware of Li Man’s feelings for him at that time...

It’s uncertain whether it’s the excellent angle of the photos or some other factor, or perhaps the two in the photos were naturally this way...

In the photos, no matter which one, Lu Jingchen and Li Man appeared to be incredibly close, and in one, it even seemed as if Lu Jingchen was kissing Li Man... 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Song Qiao sat on the bed in a daze, staring at her phone, without reacting for quite a while, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

Until after a while, her phone sounded again, Song Qiao looked at the caller ID and found it was Chu Munan’s call.

She couldn’t help but furrow her brow slightly but still slid to answer and placed it by her ear, "Hello!"

On the other end, Chu Munan was at the party scene, holding a wine glass, continuously swirling the wine inside. His gaze fell upon the pair of man and woman not far away, and it was only when he heard Song Qiao’s voice that he slightly came to himself, retracting his gaze to his wine glass, speaking directly, "Song Qiao, where are you now?"

"At home, preparing to sleep. What’s up?" Song Qiao’s mood was low, her tone slightly indifferent, and she spoke lightly, "It’s so late, why are you calling me?"

Actually, she was about to fall asleep; she was just disturbed by a call and that multimedia message waking her.

Inside, there was an inexplicable feeling of agitation, but she forcefully suppressed the gradually rising irritation, patiently listening on the phone.

Chu Munan glanced over at Lu Jingchen and Li Man not far away, his gaze cool. He originally wanted to tell Song Qiao directly, but after considering, he changed his words, "No, just calling to see if you’re asleep. Since you are, I’ll hang up now. You continue to sleep."

Actually, he wanted to tell Song Qiao that Lu Jingchen attended the mayor’s party with another woman, but thinking that Song Qiao was now pregnant, and that pregnant women can’t withstand stress, he suppressed his impulse.

However, Chu Munan’s gaze toward Lu Jingchen was already icy cold.

Everyone knew the importance of the mayor’s party, especially Lu Jingchen.

Those attending were all CEOs of large companies or people of status and influence. Regardless if they were men or women, anyone attending the party brought the most important person by their side. If married, they would undoubtedly bring their wife or husband.

Like Chu Munan himself, unmarried, he either brought an assistant, a girlfriend, or attended alone.

Chu Munan was the latter; for years, aside from a scandal from years ago, he really hadn’t stirred up anything with any woman, always attending parties of any scale alone or with a direct assistant.

Song Qiao was initially stunned hearing Chu Munan’s words. Listening, she could hear sounds and music from the other side of the call, and having attended numerous parties herself, she instantly guessed Chu Munan must be at one. But she didn’t continue to speak further, merely responded with an "mm" and said, "I’ll hang up now; if you’re outside, go home and rest early. Drinking too much isn’t good for your health."
