After dinner, Ye Youyou played with Li Jianyue for a while longer before returning home with Li Jinnan.
When she arrived home, she realized how dull her own home was. She sighed and caressed her belly as she said, “Baby, we still have quite a few more months to go. Mummy’s so bored!”
Li Jinnan came forward and hugged her waist. “Why are you bored? I’m here with you.”
“Hmph. You’re always busy. Oh, right. I’ll be going for my pregnancy checkup tomorrow.”
“Hmm, I’ll inform my assistant that I won’t be heading to the office tomorrow. I’ll accompany my darling for the checkup.” Li Jinnan’s voice was low and seductively raspy.
Ye Youyou’s lips curled up in a smile, and she tugged him, saying, “I’m taking a shower. Are you joining me?”
Li Jinnan: “…”
…
After Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie ate a steamboat dinner, they went to a game parlor to relax before going to check in at the hotel, which was near their workplace.
After Ye Qianqian showered and changed her clothes, she lay down on the bed and waited for Shen Zhilie to return from his shower. She couldn’t help but take out her phone and turn on the remote monitoring video.
She rewound the video and began to watch it starting at the moment they left home. She fast-forwarded through the video, but there was no sign of anyone in the house.
Ye Qianqian was merely watching the video out of boredom. Although she was worried, she didn’t feel like there was much threat to her. Beyond his extraordinarily tall nose and all the acne all over his face, there was nothing especially remarkable about him. However… it was rare to have those two traits.
Ye Qianqian skimmed through the video and yawned a number of times. She was tired because she slept too late last night and woke up too early in the morning. And, since she had a shock earlier, all of her energy was seemingly completely exhausted.
Her cellphone screen gradually darkened. The video wasn’t fast-forwarded at a crazy speed, so she was able to see every single scene and moment clearly. The entire pitch-black apartment was visible on the screen thanks to the strong night view function. Even though the apartment wasn’t lit, it was clear enough to see everything inside.
A shadow suddenly appeared in the pitch-black apartment. Ye Qianqian instantly became wide awake and sat up straight. She felt as if her heart were in her throat, racing violently.
Ye Qianqian paused the video, and she could see a silhouette in the distance. It was a man! He appeared tall and strong, and he wore a cap. Although the image wasn’t very clear, Ye Qianqian could see that he was wearing a black T-shirt and was walking into the apartment sneakily.
Ye Qianqian’s hand trembled, and her cellphone fell to the ground. She screamed, “Old Shen!”
Shen Zhilie had just finished showering. He was drying his hair with a towel and walking out of the bathroom when he heard Ye Qianqian’s screams. He instantly jumped in fright and looked over, asking, “What happened?”
It was obvious that Ye Qianqian’s body was rigid, and when she turned her head to look at him, there was a clear look of fear on her face. “Our apartment… there’s someone…”
Shen Zhilie’s heart grew cold. He strode over to her and immediately glanced at the image on the cellphone screen. In the image, there was a big, tall man standing upright. The video had been paused, and seeing it made the hairs rise on Shen Zhilie’s back. He took one glance at the time and realized that it was already close to twelve midnight. Most office workers would already be asleep at such a time.
The man must be up to no good entering the house sneakily at so late an hour!
Shen Zhilie continued to play the video, and the man’s subsequent actions were clearly played out.
