illicit relationship

But as soon as she stepped into the living room, Mu Cheng stopped her and asked angrily. "Who is he? Why is he driving you home? Is he your secret lover?"

Long Jingxian stopped her footsteps and looked at her husband. "He is not my secret lover! He is Xiao Tian, my friend."

Of course, Mu Cheng did not believe her words. "Don't lie to me! If he were not your secret lover, why did he drive you home? You even look really close to him. Just admit it! He is your secret lover, right?"

Long Jingxian could not hold back her anger anymore. Earlier, three people almost kidnapped her, and here, her husband accused her of having an affair after arriving home.

She raised her voice and pointed her right index finger at him. "It's all because of you! Bai Yuzen's underlings tried to kidnap me earlier and Xiao Tian was the one who helped me. How dare you accuse me of having an affair with Xiao Tian? If it was not for him, Bai Yuzen's underlings would have kidnapped me earlier."

*Slap…

The sound of Mu Cheng slapping Long Jingxian's face echoed in the living room.

He was furious because Long Jingxian dared to raise her voice. "How dare you raise your voice when you are talking to me? Did you forget I'm your husband?"

"You don't deserve to call yourself as my husband!" Long Jingxian said angrily. "All you do is gamble and get drunk! Not only do you never do your job as a husband, you even keep giving me trouble."

Yes. The reason why these three young people wanted to kidnap her was related to her husband. Her husband always gambled and got drunk every day.

One day, he lost a lot of money and borrowed money from Bai Yuzen, a famous thug in that place.

Due to high-interest rates and always losing in gambling, Mu Cheng could not return the money in time. For this reason, Bai Yuzen was furious and ordered his underlings to beat Mu Cheng.

After getting beaten up by Bai Yuzen's underlings, Mu Cheng asked for forgiveness and told Bai Yuzen that he had a beautiful wife.

When Bai Yuzen saw how beautiful Long Jingxian was, he agreed to forgive Mu Cheng if he could spend one night with Long Jingxian.

Bai Yuzen even said that he would forget about the money. Of course, Mu Cheng accepted Bai Yuzen's condition immediately.

That was why Mu Cheng told his wife to spend one night with Bai Yuzen. However, Long Jingxian refused instantly.

That was why her relationship with her husband was getting worse every day because everything was Mu Cheng's fault!

"How dare you say something like that?" Mu Cheng raised his right arm and was about to slap Long Jingxian's face again.

At the same time, Mu Ai suddenly appeared next to them and spoke, "Mother, father, don't fight again!"

Mu Cheng turned his head towards Mu Ai and said angrily. "Don't meddle in the affairs of adults! Go back to your room now!"

"Sob…Sob…Sob…" tears filled Mu Ai's eyes when her father yelled at her.

"DO NOT CRY AND GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM NOW!" Mu Cheng was even angrier when his daughter was crying.

He was furious because his wife had an affair with Xiao Tian, so he was angrier when his daughter tried to stop him and cried in front of him.

"Don't yell at my daughter!" Long Jingxian instantly carried her daughter and left.

"Hey! Long Jingxian, come back here! I still have not finished talking to you!" Mu Cheng roared as he pointed his right index finger at Long Jingxian.

As Long Jingxian was walking aimlessly, Mu Ai inquired, "Mother, why do you always fight with father?"

"I'm sorry for letting you see that." Long Jingxian could only apologize to her daughter.

"Can't you two go back to the way you used to be?" Mu Ai asked.

In the past, their family was filled with happiness. They always laughed and had a happy moment every single day.

"Your father has changed. It's impossible to go back to how it used to be." Long Jingxian gave an honest answer.

"Why did father change?" Mu Ai asked again.

Long Jingxian sighed before answering, "Stop asking a question."

"Then where are we going now?" Mu Ai inquired,

"Let's find a hotel to sleep tonight." Long Jingxian did not want to go home because she was still angry at her husband.

"Are we not going home tonight?" Mu Ai was startled by her mother's words.

"No." Long Jingxian replied, "We will go home tomorrow."

Coincidently, Xiao Tian saw them.

'Aren't they lady Long and her daughter?'

Previously, Xiao Tian wanted to go to Eternal Beauty company because Liang Jun wanted him to sign some documents.

In order to make sure that they were Long Jingxian and Mu Ai, Xiao Tian paid attention to them carefully when his car passed them.

'It's them!'

Xiao Tian instantly stopped the car.

Because Long Jingxian was carrying her daughter after he sent her home, he knew that something bad had happened to her.

Xiao Tian instantly got out of the car and walked towards them, "Lady Long, why are you here?"

"Xiao Tian?" Long Jingxian was startled when she saw Xiao Tian.

"Don't get me wrong. I was about to go to my other company and suddenly saw you." Xiao Tian didn't want Long Jingxian to think he was stalking her. "So why are you here? And h-"

Xiao Tian stopped his words halfway when he saw a red mark on Long Jingxian's face.

'This is…'

Xiao Tian instantly knew that someone had slapped Long Jingxian in the face before.

'Was it her husband?'

He suddenly thought it was her husband, the one who slapped her in the face.

"Lady Long, your face…." Xiao Tian did not finish his words on purpose.

"My husband was the one who did this to me." Long Jingxian gave an honest answer. "We had an argument after you left earlier."

"Was it because of me?" Xiao Tian had a feeling that everything was related to him because he drove her home earlier.

"It's not your fault. It's my husband's fault." Long Jingxian did not blame Xiao Tian because, in her eyes, it was her husband's fault.

If her husband had not always drunk and gambled, everything would have been different. However, she couldn't do anything because her husband never listened to her words.

"So, where are you going now?" Xiao Tian inquired,

"I don't know." Long Jingxian replied, "Maybe, I will find a hotel first."

"How about you stay in my apartment?" Xiao Tian gave a suggestion. "There's no one in my apartment, so you can stay there if you want."

"Xiao Tian, why do you always want to help me?" Long Jingxian was curious as to why Xiao Tian kept wanting to help her.

They had only met three times, so she thought it would be strange if he kept wanting to help her.

"Don't get me wrong. I just don't want something bad to happen to little Ai." Of course, Xiao Tian knew why Long Jingxian suddenly asked something like that. "If you don't want to, I won't force you."

"Mother, let's just stay in big brother's apartment." Mu Ai spoke abruptly.

At this moment, Long Jingxian only stared at her daughter without saying a single word.
