After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 516

The next day, as soon as dawn broke,

An Nuan opened her eyes.

The entire night, she had been in an almost sleepless state, her mind filled with Ye Jinghuai's appearance and many other jumbled thoughts.

At 6 a.m., she could no longer fall asleep.

She sat up in bed, leaning against the headboard.

She had no intention of getting up just yet.

She didn't want to disturb the rest of Qin Jiang and Hu Feng.

Today was bound to be turbulent.

So she hoped they could conserve their energy.

She took out her phone and habitually checked the news.

Ever since Ye Jinghuai's arrest, most of the headlines were about him. For now, the coverage was relatively objective without malicious attacks, but the incident itself didn't need much elaboration—Ye Jinghuai's image had already been tarnished to the extreme.

An Nuan read some of it, then didn't want to read anymore.

The more she read, the more unsettled she felt.

Just as she was about to exit the app,

A new article suddenly popped up.

An Nuan's gaze flickered.

She saw the headline: Gu Yan Sheng and Di Xinyao spotted entering maternity ward, wedding nearing, may marry this month.

To be honest,

An Nuan didn't quite believe it.

Logically, Gu Yan Sheng should have been abandoned by the Di family.

How could Di Xinyao still be with Gu Yan Sheng?!

An Nuan clenched her teeth.

She clicked on the article.

The paparazzi had captured the masked Gu Yan Sheng and Di Xinyao entering and leaving the best private hospital in the Capital City, surrounded by many bodyguards. The two were shielded in the middle, looking like they had been surreptitiously photographed.

Of course, it only looked that way.

If it had been truly surreptitious and the subjects were unaware, then Gu Yan Sheng wouldn't have made that boastful phone call last night!

An Nuan clutched her phone tightly, feeling a surge of anger in that moment.

She really shouldn't have underestimated Gu Yan Sheng.

When ability is lacking, he would resort to scheming and trickery.

She had almost forgotten that when it came to dealing with women, Gu Yan Sheng was a true master.

How could a woman like Di Xinyao, raised in an ivory tower, resist his charm?

Gu Yan Sheng must have foreseen his current precarious situation and planned his next move early on. Getting Di Xinyao pregnant and making it public was the best way for him to protect himself and even advance further.

Being caught living together or dating would at most lead to a breakup after being criticized for a while, and then it would blow over. But once the pregnancy rumors were confirmed, in this traditional North Wen Country, abandoning a pregnant woman would spark nationwide outrage—the Di family wouldn't dare risk such a reputation.

Had Gu Yan Sheng really checkmated the Di family?!

If he could steady each step, it would indeed benefit his future development.

But if he made any missteps, the Di family could make it so he had nowhere to bury his bones!

An Nuan gritted her teeth.

Gu Yan Sheng had truly staked everything on this.

Would this make the effort to rescue Ye Jinghuai even more thorny?!

She even doubted whether the Di family had given Gu Yan Sheng a final chance to deal with Ye Jinghuai?!

An Nuan told herself to stay calm.

She couldn't let the current adverse situation throw her off balance.

At 8 a.m.,

An Nuan got up and went downstairs.

Qin Jiang and Hu Feng were already in the living room.

An Nuan was a bit surprised.

She had thought Qin Jiang would sleep in a little longer.

Actually, there was no hurry today either.

But evidently, like her, Qin Jiang couldn't sleep soundly.

"You're up?" Qin Jiang greeted her casually.

An Nuan nodded slightly.

"Let's have breakfast, make do with what we have."

An Nuan sat down at the table with them.

As they ate, Qin Jiang said, "Did you see the news?"

"Yes."

"That little brat Gu Yan Sheng is really disgusting." Qin Jiang seemed to have always looked down on Gu Yan Sheng.

Not to mention Gu Yan Sheng's recent disgraceful behavior, but even in the past, he was regarded highly by the public as a capable person. Yet for some reason, whenever Qin Jiang or Ye Jinghuai mentioned Gu Yan Sheng, they always seemed to scoff at him.

Did they know Gu Yan Sheng's true nature early on?!

An Nuan didn't ask further.

At this point, any questions seemed unimportant.

She only cared about Ye Jinghuai.

So she changed the subject directly, "After breakfast, we'll split up. You go to the municipal government and give me a signal when the timing is right. Then Hu Feng and I will infiltrate Ye Jinghuai's home to search for clues."

"Okay." Qin Jiang said, "I've also arranged for some people to protect you two covertly, so there won't be too much danger. Go ahead!"

"Mm." An Nuan nodded.

After breakfast,

They left the secret hideout at the nightclub separately.

An Nuan was still riding in the car driven by Hu Feng, looking at the unfamiliar city with a solemn expression.

Hu Feng generally didn't talk much either.

Ever since Ye Jinghuai's incident, Hu Feng had also become very serious.

So the drive was utterly silent.

Hu Feng parked the car two streets away from Ye Jinghuai's neighborhood, waiting for Qin Jiang's signal.

Around 11 a.m.,

Qin Jiang called An Nuan, "You can go now."

An Nuan acknowledged him.

She told Hu Feng, "Let's go."

"Okay." Hu Feng immediately drove towards Ye Jinghuai's neighborhood.

Qin Jiang's work was actually more meticulous than she had expected.

She didn't know the extent of Qin Jiang's authority, but the fact that he managed to purchase a car registered to Ye Jinghuai's neighborhood overnight was proof of his thoroughness in handling many matters.

So they didn't need to get out of the car. They could drive straight into the neighborhood's underground parking garage, take the elevator from there up to Ye Jinghuai's floor.

An Nuan was a bit nervous.

Hu Feng's rigid face showed the same.

An Nuan had been observing the surveillance cameras here.

There were cameras in the elevator, but the opponent wouldn't be foolish enough to use the elevator.

For transporting something worth 50 million, they would obviously try to be more discreet.

If they had used the stairwell...

When they reached the floor,

As soon as An Nuan exited the elevator, she glanced at the stairwell and confirmed there were no cameras, so she could almost be certain that was the route they had used.

She walked towards Ye Jinghuai's front door.

An Nuan tore off the seal and entered the password to unlock it.

"Hu Feng, you stand guard outside," An Nuan instructed.

Hu Feng looked at An Nuan.

"If there's any danger starting from here, you'll be able to cover for me," An Nuan explained.

Hu Feng nodded.

His task was to protect An Nuan.

An Nuan went inside.

Looking at the familiar home, now with a layer of dust,

She felt a pang in her heart, remembering the warmth and intimacy they had shared here.

How blissful those times were, and how agonizing it was now.

She suppressed her emotions and began searching meticulously.

The more she searched, the more disheartened she became.

This place had been cleared out much more thoroughly than she had expected, so she felt that anything suspicious might already be gone.

Had she underestimated the opponent's capabilities?!
