Rebirth: Once Again With You

That was the final streak of her rationality. Li Caiyi was so confused and frustrated. However, more than anything, she felt very disappointed.

Did this mean Dai Shenqiang was not the Shen Qiang she was looking for?

Or was he indeed the Shen Qiang she was looking for, but he just did not remember his previous life's memories?

Or even all of that was just her misunderstanding, and her meeting with Shen Qiang was just her dream? He was too good to be real, anyway.

Li Caiyi could not handle her turbulent emotions, and there was so many thought overlapping in her head that her mind blanked out. She could not sit still, so she abruptly stood up. "I just remember I have something to do. I will leave first."

"Huh?" Dai Shenqiang was surprised because she left so suddenly. He wanted to stop her, but sensing her foul mood, he was at a loss for words. In the end, he could only let her go. "I understand. Um, I'm sorry if I said something wrong."

No, it was not Dai Shenqiang's fault. It was all her fault for misunderstanding things and getting too ahead of herself.

Li Caiyi wanted to say that, but no words came out.

Perhaps, deep in her heart, she was blaming him too for misleading her, even though she knew that was not true. Li Caiyi was the foolish one here.

She was just unbearably disappointed in herself.

Everything about this situation was just upsetting. What frustrated her more was because she could not even tell anyone about this complicated feeling in her chest.

Li Caiyi took her bag and walked toward the entrance in silence. She seemed to walk past Dai Zhiqiang as she ran outside, but she was too upset to say anything to him.

Dai Zhiqiang was surprised when Li Caiyi walked out of the house while hugging her bag. "Cai—"

He tried to call her, but she did not spare him a glance and walked past him with a lowered head. He was left standing in the yard with a dumbfounded expression.

***

Li Caiyi buried herself in her blanket when she arrived at her house. She felt terrible.

Not only did everything return to a square one again, but she also felt horrible because she left the brothers in that state. They must have been confused because she left so suddenly.

It wasn't supposed to be like this. Li Caiyi was an adult, so she should be more composed when handling this matter.

However, when she knew what she believed all this time was only her misunderstanding all along, she felt ashamed, upset, and depressed. She did not know what stupid thing she might do when she could not control her emotion, so she ran away.

How pathetic.

"This is not right at all. I should get a grip." Li Caiyi tossed and turned uncomfortably in her bed, but her mind was still as chaotic as before.

In the end, she felt tired thinking of it, so she stopped thinking altogether. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep when her phone vibrated.

Li Caiyi lazily picked it up, thinking it was probably just a stupid notification again. When she saw it was an email from Detective Tang, her eyes widened, and she automatically sat up on the bed.

Detective Tang was very efficient in his work. It had only been yesterday since they met, but he had already sent her something. Li Caiyi gulped and opened the file he sent her nervously.

Inside the file was the photo of Li Jirong going out arm-in-arm with a woman. However, the woman was not Gu Xue with whom he had an affair.

Li Caiyi quickly realized that her father must have kept several women outside. She only knew about Gu Xue since she accidentally discovered it, but she was not surprised if her father kept many other women outside. He was just that much of a scum.

Her gaze became colder as she scrolled down and saw they shopped together and talked intimately like a real couple in these photos. There was even a photo where they came in and went out from a hotel. Based on the date, this photo should have been taken last night. So, this was the reason why she had not seen her father these two days.

Li Caiyi was just finished looking through the file when her phone vibrated again. This time, it was a text from Detective Tang.

[Detective Tang: Have you seen the file I sent you? Just a disclaimer, prepare to be shocked].

[Li Caiyi: I have received and checked it. There is nothing to be surprised about an adulterer's behavior].

[Detective Tang: How cold, but I guess you are right. Should I check on this woman as well?].

Li Caiyi thought for a bit and decided it was unnecessary to do a background check on this woman. As far as she remembered, Li Jirong had a close relationship with that Gu Xue woman, to the point she kept her for years even after Li Cayi had found out about their affair.

Gu Xue and Li Jirong really suited each other because Gu Xue's shamelessness knew no bounds.

In her previous life, knowing that Li Caiyi could not be against her father, she repeatedly asked Li Caiyi to take her to a high-class party. She said it was all thanks to Li Jirong that Li Caiyi got married to the Meng family and became Madam Meng, so Li Caiyi should help her integrate into her circle of friends.

How dare she even make such a claim to Li Caiyi with her status as a mistress? No matter how much Li Jirong doted on her, he had never brought her outside, so what made her think it was Li Caiyi's turn to do something for her?

Gu Xue was a vain woman who looked down on Li Caiyi too much. Even if Li Caiyi were stupid and hated by Li Jirong, she would never bow her head to a shameless woman like her. So Li Caiyi always chased her away every time she started making trouble.

Li Caiyi thought there was no need to check on other women except Gu Xue because she was sure these women were probably just a fling for Li Jirong. With so many women on his side, how he had never gotten found out up until now was still a mystery for Li Caiyi.

[Li Caiyi: There is no need. Focus the investigation on Li Jirong and Gu Xue].

[Detective Tang: Roger that. I will send Gu Xue's information soon. Look forward to it].

Li Caiyi saved the photo she had just received in a hidden folder, and then she erased the email from Detective Tang.

She wondered if Gu Xue knew that her lover also had other women besides his wife? Well, that was none of her business, anyway.

Either way, Gu Xue deserved it.
