Villain Is Bodyguard of Heroine’s Poisonous Stepmother

Chapter 105: Your wife cheated on you

Upon learning of Luo Zixuan’s outing, Chen Luo had Ah Da keep a constant update on Luo Zixuan’s whereabouts and interactions. He emphasized the importance of being notified immediately if Luo Zixuan’s meeting was indeed with Li Ting.

“System, you’ve outdone yourself. Luo Zixuan’s eagerness is beyond expectation,” Chen Luo mused.

He speculated Luo Zixuan’s purpose for leaving was to meet Li Ting, making Ye Chen’s impending cuckold status almost a certainty.

Li Ting might be unappealing and overweight, yet her lack of virtue, evidenced by her history of keeping a younger lover, suggested she’d likely leap at the chance with Luo Zixuan offering himself.

“How will Ye Chen react when he finds out?” Chen Luo pondered.

Would Ye Chen endure this indignity, or would a clash with Li Ting ensue? A confrontation would imply Ye Chen losing the Li family’s backing, conversely, the Li family might even target Ye Chen.

Li Zhong’s tolerance and assistance toward Ye Chen were not out of admiration for Ye Chen but solely because of his daughter. If the relationship between Ye Chen and Li Ting were to break, Li Zhong would certainly turn against Ye Chen.

Should Ye Chen bear this insult, he’d become as cuckolded as Xiao Yongqiang. Despite his aversion to Li Ting, the thought of being cuckolded would be unbearable for Ye Chen, touching on the core of his pride as a man.

Shortly thereafter, Ah Da confirmed Luo Zixuan’s rendezvous with Li Ting. In the secluded ambiance of a café’s couple’s room, Luo Zixuan made his move on Li Ting.

Despite Li Ting saying this, her actions belied her words. She didn’t push Luo Zixuan away, instead, subtly moving closer to him.

“It doesn’t matter, I don’t care.” Luo Zixuan declared, his gaze softening on what he once found repulsive. The sight of her face used to provoke nausea, but now, it sparked something akin to affection in him.

“Li Ting, I have feelings for you. Leave Ye Chen and be with me,” he implored.

“That’s not possible,” she refused.

While Li Ting harbored feelings for both men, severing ties with Ye Chen was out of the question for her. Her heart leaned more towards Ye Chen.

“Why not?” Luo Zixuan’s expression darkened, tinged with anger.

“I have a greater fondness for him. But don’t feel too disheartened, I like you too,” Li Ting confessed, her smile awkward on her plump face.

Fury bubbled within Luo Zixuan. The thought of Li Ting preferring Ye Chen was intolerable, fueling his animosity further. Yet, her partial admission of affection brought him a fraction of comfort.

“Then, you’re spending today with me,” Luo Zixuan demanded, barely concealing his irritation.

“Alright,” Li Ting agreed, her eyes glinting with mischief. This scenario was precisely what she had hoped for. The reason she came out was precisely because of that desire in her heart.

Unbeknownst to Luo Zixuan and Li Ting, their distasteful display was being covertly filmed. The orchestrator? Ah Da, who simultaneously relayed the unfolding drama to Chen Luo.

“Tsk tsk, how could I not be a good samaritan and pass this news to Ye Chen?” Chen Luo mused, pulling out his phone. Ye Chen’s number was something he could easily obtain.

“Who’s this?” Ye Chen demanded, voice icy.

A mysterious caller—what did they want?

“Can you recognize my voice?” teased Chen Luo.

“Chen Luo,” Ye Chen’s grip on his phone intensified, nearly shattering its case. This voice haunted him. It was the voice of his arch-nemesis, he would never mistake it.

“What do you want?”

Ye Chen braced himself, suspecting no good news from Chen Luo, yet he didn’t end the call.

“I’ve got some unfortunate news for you. Try not to get too upset, alright? I just couldn’t stand the thought of you being blissfully unaware of your shiny new green hat. Your dear wife Li Ting is having an affair,” Chen Luo couldn’t quite mask his delight in Ye Chen’s misfortune.

“What are you talking about?” Ye Chen’s complexion darkened to a deep shade of thunderous gloom.

“Ye Chen, let’s be honest, it’s quite the spectacle that you can’t keep such an unsightly wife in line. It’s shameful, really. I’ve sent you an address, you might want to check it out for yourself,” Chen Luo said before abruptly ending the call and texting Ye Chen an address.

“Darn it, Chen Luo’s playing me,” was Ye Chen’s initial thought.

But then, why would Chen Luo bother with such a pointless ruse? Could there be some truth to his words?

The possibility of truth turned Ye Chen’s face a livid red, engulfed in rage. True, he harbored no affection for Li Ting. Their marriage was a forced affair, but that didn’t mean he’d tolerate infidelity.

Ye Chen had once quietly mocked Xiao Yongqiang for being cuckolded by Chen Luo. Now, with the tables turned, his fury was uncontrollable.

Driven by anger, Ye Chen left in a hurry, following the address Chen Luo had provided to the café where Luo Zixuan and Li Ting were meeting.

Upon arrival, Ye Chen immediately spotted Ah Da, whose usual stoic demeanor shifted with a slight smirk, seemingly taunting Ye Chen. Ah Da essentially directed Ye Chen by pointing the location, making it clear to Ye Chen that this ordeal was linked to Luo Zixuan and Chen Luo.

Did they plan to tarnish his reputation?

Imagining the fallout of this scandal becoming public, Ye Chen’s face alternated between shades of anger and paleness, his emotions changing faster than a Sichuan opera mask.

“I can’t let Chen Luo’s plot prevail, I refuse to be humiliated for the rest of my life,” Ye Chen thought.

Ye Chen stormed in, with Ah Da offering only a token resistance before Ye Chen made his way inside.

Entering the private room, Ye Chen was immediately confronted with a distressing sight, his eyes reddening with rage. The betrayal was real. Li Ting, of all people, had the audacity to cheat on him. At that moment, Ye Chen was consumed with a murderous rage.

“Luo Zixuan, it’s you.”

Ye Chen had assumed it would be some random individual, but to his shock, Luo Zixuan himself was part of this scheme to degrade him. They really went all out to target and disgrace him.

Swiftly shutting the door, Ye Chen was determined to keep this disgrace from public view, tormented by the thought of his own humiliation.

If word of this got out, not only would the Li family face humiliation, but the greatest embarrassment would fall upon me, potentially leaving Ye Chen in an untenable position.

“Ye Chen, why are you here?” Li Ting’s voice trembled slightly as she addressed Ye Chen, a mix of surprise and alarm in her eyes.

“Don’t worry, Li Ting. With me here, he won’t dare touch you,” Luo Zixuan assured her, his eyes gleaming with smug satisfaction at Ye Chen’s unexpected arrival. This incident, he hoped, might even lead to Ye Chen and Li Ting’s separation, paving the way for him to step in.

“Ah Da, get in here and take care of him,” Luo Zixuan bellowed.

At his call, Ah Da burst through the previously shut door and engaged Ye Chen in combat.

“Bastard,” muttered Ye Chen.

His recent training had enhanced his combat skills, yet he still couldn’t take care of him in a short time. The noise attracted an audience, with some bystanders pulling out their phones to capture the scene.

“That man’s quite attractive, what does he see in her?” spectators murmured among themselves.

Luo Zixuan, undeniably handsome, seemed inexplicably drawn to what many saw as a fat pig. Li Ting’s overweight and unattractive figure sparked curiosity. Was it her wealth he was after? Was she a wealthy woman in disguise?
