My Evil Cinderella: Taming A Villainous Wife Chapter 128 - He Never Loved You

Somewhere in Beijing Northern District...

"Xin Jun, have you heard anything from Ming Ren?" A mature looking man entered a dark room.

The only source of light came from a monitor and a keyboard that Xin Jun was using.

"No, not yet. Don't worry about her, she'll surely be here in the afternoon." The bulky looking man sighed, "If you're so worried about her, why don't you go and pick her up? I'm busy keeping an eye at that s.h.i.+ Yi."

Chen Gao turned away and left the room without saying another word at him.

They have been keeping in contact with their benefactor for a while now concerning their target, s.h.i.+ Yi.

Even if s.h.i.+ Yi looked so easy to handle, Chen Gao didn't want to make a move yet ever since they found out Lu Weichun was actually alive.

He was sure that the Lu family was already looking for them. Going out and attacking s.h.i.+ Yi carelessly could be hard. What if he was being watched secretly? 

Unlike s.h.i.+ Yi who was an easy target, s.h.i.+ Enxi was harder to approach all because Lu Mello's men were guarding her well.

s.h.i.+ Yi wasn't their main target, it was s.h.i.+ Enxi. The hatred their backer has for s.h.i.+ Enxi was so much that they were ordered to get everything done by this month.

It takes time and effort to scheme against someone's death. Especially if he wanted to make it look like an 'accident'.

His only chance was to use Jiang Yan as a bait to lure s.h.i.+ Enxi out from the guards around her.

*Ring* *Ring*

Chen Gao snapped out of his thoughts when he heard his phone ring. He looked at the caller ID 'Ming Ren' on his phone's screen. His eyes softened upon seeing the name.

"Ming Ren?" He answered the call.

"Brother Chen..."

Chen Gao's eyes turned cold upon hearing the voice from the other line.

Yes, the only thing that kept him reminding that Jiang Yan was not Ming Ren was all because of her raspy voice. 

"Where are you? Have you forgotten what day it is today? Tch, Ming Ren is not a forgetful person."

Hearing Chen Gao's indifference in the tone of his voice, the more Jiang Yan became depressed. "I'll meet you there in an hour."

"You better come quicker than that. Also, I sent you a dress in your place yesterday, wear it. Make sure to keep it clean and neat. That dressed belonged to Ming Ren."

"Yes."

Inside a neat looking apartment, Jiang Yan was sitting on a sofa and was looking blankly at the phone after the call.

s.h.i.+ Enxi kept the phone and smirked, "Ming Ren this, Ming Ren that... He never gets tired in-"

"Stop it."

s.h.i.+ Enxi raised a brow, looking at her.

"I don't want to hear that b.i.t.c.h's name ever again." Jiang Yan spat coldly.

"Ah, my poor Jiang Yan." s.h.i.+ Enxi went and gently stroked her hair. "You deserve better than that man. See? I told you, all he cares about is his dead fiance. He may have saved you in the past but that isn't the truth, you know that."

Jiang Yan's parents were killed by Chen Gao's men. They were supposed to kill her too but after Chen Gao saw her resemblance with his diseased fiance, he decided to take her in.

At first, Jiang Yan never knew that it was actually Chen Gao's men who killed her parents. She has always thought that it was someone else. He even killed those members for her just to make her believe his lie.

s.h.i.+ Enxi was the one who gave her all the evidence that those men were actually working under Chen Gao, that they were ordered to kill her family.

"He never loved you." s.h.i.+ Enxi whispered poisonous words in her ear. "If he did love you for who you are, he will never use you as a bait for me. He will never put you in harm's way."

s.h.i.+ Enxi turned to Hao Qiang, "But here is a man, who loves you for who you are not because of being 'Ming Ren'. You don't have to pretend in front of him."

Jiang Yan raised her head and turned to Hao Qiang's gentle gaze. 

Five days ago, after s.h.i.+ Enxi left that old and cold abandoned place, Jiang Yan was left with Hao Qiang as her guard.

Of course, Hao Qiang wouldn't go against s.h.i.+ Enxi's orders even if he wanted to tell Lu Mello about what happened.

To his surprise, later that day, Lu Mello called him and even ordered him to tell everything that s.h.i.+ Enxi did that day.

After receiving an order from Lu Mello to give Jiang Yan an antidote for the poison that s.h.i.+ Enxi gave, he went to do what he was ordered to do.

Later that night, he received a specific order from s.h.i.+ Enxi. 

He didn't have a choice but follow every instruction she gave him.

He released Jiang Yan and brought her to his place. 

Of course, after gaining her strength back, Jiang Yan tried to escape Hao Qiang's place but failed. She tried to find ways to contact Chen Gao but she wasn't given a chance to do so.

Hao Qiang never beat her no matter how many times she tried to escape from him within a day. He remained calm and was treating her well even after she was treating him badly.

In the end, when nothing seemed to work, she tried talking things out to Hao Qiang.

In the end, she was not able to convince him but within that short time, everything went according to s.h.i.+ Enxi's plan.

The night before s.h.i.+ Enxi came and Lu Mello came, Hao Qiang 'confessed his love' for Jiang Yan, that he has already started liking her from afar before s.h.i.+ Enxi even ordered him to capture her.

At first, Jiang Yan didn't believe him. Her love for Chen Gao was deep... at least that was what she thought.
