Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 149 - 149 149 The further away from him the better

Chapter 149: Chapter 149: The further away from him, the better! Chapter 149: Chapter 149: The further away from him, the better! Yin Hehe eventually moved out of the small courtyard.

However, this time, she didn’t go to the main building but was led by a servant to pick a room in a secondary building at the back.

“Xiaohan, the young master said you will live in this building from now on. Choose a room,” the servant told her.

“…”

Yin Hehe really didn’t want to speak.

What kind of madness was that damned man under? Why did he insist on her moving out of the small courtyard?

He must think she was unwilling to go to the main building.

And that she would like to move here, next to him? Ridiculous!

Yin Hehe lingered in the building for a long time before finally choosing the room she used to sleep in.

“You’re picking this one?”

Aunt Ke’s face changed when she saw this.

Yin Hehe looked at her, “What’s the matter? Can’t I live here?”

Aunt Ke immediately showed a hesitant expression on her face.

“Xiaohan, I won’t keep secrets from you. This bedroom, in fact, belonged to our former young madam. As you know, the young master never liked the young madam, and for so many years, he never let anyone come in to clean this room. So, if you were to live here…”

“You mean to say, if I move in here, your young master will definitely hate me too?”

Yin Hehe suddenly caught the underlying message and immediately, her eyes, dim all day, lit up.

“Then good, I’ll take this room!”

“What?”

Aunt Ke’s eyes widened as if they were made of brass bells.

That very afternoon, Yin Hehe happily moved into that room, and when the children heard about it, they all ran over.

“Mommy, Cen Bao also wants to live here with you,” one of them said.

“Me too, I want this room!”

Youyou and Cen Bao, seeing mommy moving over, also quickly scrambled to pick out rooms close to their mom’s.

Before long, they were bringing their toys into their new rooms.

Sheng Xi quietly dragged over a pillow as well.

The news reached Shengshi Group, and the man who just finished his meeting and returned to his office heard it. He strode over to the luxurious office chair behind his desk and sat down, a proud sneer tracing his thin lips.

“What good is being a great lawyer? Still managed to be tamed just the same,” he sneered.

Xu Guannan: “…”

That smile did not look as if it was born of a good deed.

“President, the matters on that end have been taken care of. Now everyone in the capital knows that Lan Tingyu has sent gifts over, except for those on the list in your hands.”

“Well done, very good work indeed,” the man responded as he looked at the list in his hand, feeling even better.

He was very much looking forward to seeing how the influential people on this list would react to the revelation that they didn’t receive any of the gifts meant for them.

The man contentedly closed the folder.

Two hours later, when Peng Geng and a gracefully poised woman were about to leave a teahouse, planning to find other shareholders of their company to discuss their next move, he suddenly received a phone call.

“It’s bad news, my dad has just been taken away,” the voice on the other end said.

“What did you say?” Peng Geng’s face drastically changed as he took the call from the young master of the Lan Family.

“It’s true, my dad was just at home when suddenly people came in, and then they took him away.”

Lan Yufeng had never been so panicked before, even his voice was trembling over the phone.

Peng Geng felt as though he had been struck by lightning.

After more than a minute, he finally asked over the phone, “Do you know what happened?”

Lan Yufeng: “I don’t know, my mom is making calls right now. Peng Geng, my dad got in this mess only because he was helping your son, you must not abandon him!”

He even emphasized it again at the end.

Peng Geng’s hand limply fell to his side.

Indeed, this was the biggest secret he harbored—Sheng Huainan didn’t actually have the surname Sheng.

It was Peng!

Peng Geng left with unsteady steps.

He wanted to figure all this out and then find a way to save the situation, but events unfolded too quickly. In less than an hour, someone had already leaked the news on social media that Lan Tingyu had been arrested.

“My God, how could he be arrested? His status is so noble!”

“Just trying to climb up the ladder.”

“This is terrifying. I thought he was a good person, but it turns out they’re all such scum!”

“…”

In just a few minutes, the internet was filled with curses.

And this news was directly pushed to the top trending searches. By the time Peng Geng checked, it was already too late; even the Lan Family had been sealed off in Provincial City.

“This must be Sheng Siyuan’s doing. Otherwise, who would have the financial power to bribe so many people at once!”

The Sheng Huainan household was in complete chaos.

Yet, he himself was not foolish and immediately guessed that this was Sheng Siyuan’s masterpiece and began to curse vehemently.

Seeing this, his mother nearly fainted from anger.

“Peng Geng, my brother and his family are now locked up. If you get them out, I swear I will expose our dirty past and ensure you end up with nothing in Shengshi Group!”

This woman was furious to the extreme and even threatened Peng Geng with her phone up on the top floor.

Peng Geng, upon hearing this, nearly had an aneurysm on the spot.

What dirty past did he have with her? In reality, she was flirtatious—first with him, and then scoffing at him for merely being a worker at Shengshi.

After that, she turned around and threw herself into the arms of Sheng Huainan’s father.

After all, he had the surname Sheng, didn’t he?

Peng Geng hung up and sat at home, head drooping, as though he had aged ten years overnight.

—

One week later.

The Shengshi Group, which had finally settled down, was back on track, and the atmosphere in Shengfei Bay had also relaxed significantly.

“Xiaohan, I am going to the supermarket to buy some seafood. The young master said he will come back for dinner tonight.”

“Hehe…”

Yin Hehe’s expression grew increasingly irritable.

What do you mean tonight?

This entire week, that damn man had come home for dinner every day.

Not only did he come home for dinner, but he would then go to work in his study, which was right next door to her room.

This resulted in her having to avoid him every day and wait until he turned off the lights before she could sneak in.

An entire week!!

She was suffering like a giant panda.

Yin Hehe decided to take her daughter and stay at her brother’s for a few days.

“Beep beep——”

“Why does the old master have time to come over today?”

The servants of Shengfei Bay, hearing the car horn, rushed out to find that it was the Sheng Family’s patriarch who had come.

Yin Hehe had no choice but to stay.

“Xiaohan, how have you been lately? Are you feeling better?”

Unexpectedly, after the patriarch arrived in the living room, he directly sought her out to inquire after her health.

Yin Hehe quickly nodded: “I am fine now, thank you, patriarch.”

“No need for formalities. In fact, I should thank you. If it hadn’t been for your assistance in the International Court, saving my son, I would probably be mourning the loss of a child by now.”

Out of the blue, the old man came out with this statement.

Yin Hehe was stunned!

Who the hell has been running their mouth now? Was it that dog son of his?
