Chapter 1235 - Xia Yehua’s Marriage (30)

After Mei Feng left, Ms. Wang picked up her cell phone and called Shen Liangchuan. She spoke with a lazy drawl, “The fish has gone for the bait, but this fish is obviously smarter than we thought. She didn’t lose her cool and instead gave me a million.”

After a short pause, Shen Liangchuan said, “The million’s yours to keep, just finish up the rest of the job.”

“Uh huh, don’t worry.”

Qiao Lian approached Shen Liangchuan after he hung up and looked at him with a puzzled expression. He had been on a hands-free call, so she had heard the conversation.

She inquired, “How much did you pay Ms. Wang to do this?”

“A 100 000.”

“What? Now that she’s got a million from Mei Feng, why would she continue to help us?”

Shen Liangchuan glanced at her, reached for her hand at once and said, “Ms. Wang is no amateur. People in her profession have professional ethics. Besides, she hates men who abandon their wives.”

Qiao Lian was astonished.

Laughing at her reaction, he continued, “Who would sacrifice their own body for such work? Circumstances make a person. Years ago, after she got married, her husband sacrificed her to his boss to please him. She was completely disappointed with him. Eventually she divorced him and fought for his assets, but Sister Wang’s reputation was sullied afterwards so she went into this profession. But don’t underestimate her. People in the industry know her for being someone with loyalty.”

Hearing this, Qiao Lian felt both amazed by and sorry for the woman.

Every profession has its own ups and downs.

Even though Sister Wang was in this profession, and even though she made sacrifices with her body, one had to admit that she was an admirable woman.

Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan and continued, “So what’s going to happen next?”

The man replied indifferently, “What happens next... just watch and see.”

Mei Feng got back into the car and drove along the streets alone after leaving Ms. Wang’s home.

As she drove, she took in the scenery around, feeling a cold isolation within.

Her age was her greatest enemy now.

She looked at her own reflection through the mirror in the car.

Even with makeup, her skin had lost its elasticity and she had large pores that broke the smoothness of her foundation powder.

Even she despised such a complexion, what more Shen Xiu.

She recalled how Shen Xiu had been talking about botox and lifting. She clenched her jaws and suddenly made an about-turn. Then the car headed towards Beijing’s biggest aesthetic clinic.

She joined the queue and registered for an appointment.

When she finally got to see the doctor, he asked, “So what do you wish to do?”

Biting her lip as Xiao Wang’s plump and tender face flashed across her mind again, she said through gritted teeth, “Everything!”

Because Mei Feng’s body was intolerant to anesthesia, the doctor carried out the procedures without it.

The pain made her feel weak.

Her face slightly swelled up afterwards and the doctor informed her, “Your face might feel stiff for a few days. Once the injected drugs have been absorbed, your face will settle and the wrinkles will smoothen out. But it’s important to keep yourself calm for the next few days. Don’t get agitated and be careful not to hit your face against anything.”

She nodded.

After leaving the clinic and upon returning home, Shen Xiu immediately charged at her and delivered a tight slap across her face, hollering, “What did you do to Xiao Wang?!”
