Welcome to "I'm Trapped in the Same Day for a Thousand Years," exclusively produced by Feilu Novel Network. Written by Sang Ze, and narrated by Wang Xiaomo, Lao He, and Wu Chen. [The following appears to be a separate, unrelated anecdote:] A man inserted a card into the door of the Xue store, then casually put his hands in his pockets, walked through the entrance hall, entered the living room, paused, and observed the room. It was an Executive Suite, the best room in this four-star hotel. Unlike residential suites or particularly large Presidential Suite, the layout of this Executive Suite was generally unified.

The living room has a sofa and coffee table, and on the right is a large bed, wardrobe, and other furniture.

There is a large glass partition on the left, so you can see directly through it.

The partition leads to a small study, complete with a desk and cabinets, making it convenient for working with a laptop.

Further to the right is the Restroom, which has electronically controlled frosted glass that can be either transparent or opaque.

The room also has a large Balcony, Balcony with a small coffee table and rattan chairs. Overall, this room is quite suitable for both business trips and romantic getaways; it can be used in any way you like.

The total area must be around 60 or 70 square meters, and the decoration is naturally luxurious and exquisite.

Wu Chen observed for a moment, then turned back to look at He Shiqin at the doorway.

He Shiqin was extremely uneasy, even somewhat nervous. He could have turned around and left immediately, but he didn't. He considered many things. He already felt that Wu Chen might be blackmailing him, or perhaps he had other motives. But to come directly to a hotel room and even hug him just now—what did Wu Chen want?

It's crystal clear; He Shiqin was blackmailed back then.

People have different personalities; some will accept coercion, while others will not. He Shiqin clearly belongs to the former. Unlike before, He Shiqin now has an unforgettable attachment: her daughter, He Xinxin.

He Shiqin didn't want to get involved in any more unnecessary disputes. Of course, she didn't want to die, nor did she want her daughter to be left without anyone to take care of her. She even thought that if something happened to her, her 14-year-old daughter's status as the Ding Family Illegitimate Daughter would be very awkward.

It's hard to say how Ding Ruilong will deal with him, but it certainly won't be good. After all, Ding Runlong has only paid child support out of blood ties all these years. Because he's so rich, he doesn't care, so paying a lot isn't a problem for him.

He Shiqin knew very well that Ding Ruilong had no intention of acknowledging this daughter, and had never even visited her once in all these years.

More importantly, in a previous phone call with Ding Ruilong mentioned, or even warned, He Shiqin not to cause trouble with her daughter and not to interfere with her life and marriage.

He Shiqin stood at the door, lost in thought, hesitant and deliberately reserved.

It's worth mentioning that the main reason He Shiqin didn't leave immediately was that she had a very good impression of Wu Chen, and Wu Chen was both young and handsome.

Humans are visual creatures, and although many people may deny it, it is a fact.

Just like when faced with a girl being silly, a man's reaction will be completely different depending on whether it's a super cute and pretty girl being silly or a fat and ugly girl being silly.

A bald, obese, and rude old man and a young, handsome, cultured, and refined man would make the same request to the same woman, and the woman's reaction and level of psychological acceptance would be completely different.

After a while, it trembled.

Why is he coming over?

Wu Chen smiled and looked at He Shiqin.

He Shiqin pursed her lips, lowered her head, thought for a moment, and then walked in on her high heels. She stopped in front of Wu Chen, her eyes flashing, and said, "Wu Chen. Mr. Wu, are you men filled with those kinds of thoughts? Can't you act like normal people?"

Why can't we?

His tone wasn't harsh, but his eyes reddened as he spoke. It had been so bitter; his life had been so miserable, first with Ding Ruilong, then with Wuchen.

What are you saying?

Wu Chen maintained his smile, but frowned slightly as he asked, his tone completely bewildered as to what He Shiqin was saying.

Are you pretending to be stupid?

What do you want with me here?

You still won't admit it!

What do I admit to?

What are you admitting?

You brought me here, and you were just hugging me, don't you think?

I always thought you were a gentleman, a good person, but you're no different from everyone else.

He Shiqin became increasingly excited and couldn't hold back any longer.

Wu Chen smiled and paused for a moment, then said, "I think you might have misunderstood something, and I think you need to apologize to me. I misunderstood He Shequn's excitement." As she spoke, she excitedly threw her handbag on the ground and then pulled open her skirt to untie it.

You just want to sleep with me, don't you?

Okay, I'll give it to you.

I ask you not to come looking for me again. What do you want today?

I wonder what Xin Xin would think of you if she knew you were like this?

Wu Chen said.

He Shiqin stopped abruptly, her hand, which had already untied the ribbon of her skirt, looking at Wu Chen with great emotion, sniffing. Subconsciously, he cared most about his daughter.

I have no idea what you're imagining.

Wu Chen smiled again, then turned and walked towards the Balcony.

You neither know who I am, nor why I'm contacting you.

We haven't even talked about anything yet, and you've already taken off your clothes. Perhaps some of my actions have caused you to misunderstand.

But Wu Chen walked to the Balcony, sat on the rattan chair on the left, crossed his legs, turned to look at He Shiqin, and said, "But you have to ask me why first."

The atmosphere became a bit awkward. He Shixin Wu Chen, unsure whether he should take off his bag or tie it up and sit down.

Wu Chen raised his hand again to gesture to He Shiqin, indicating that He Shiqin should sit opposite him.

Wu Chen's attitude calmed He Shiqin down a bit. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, then tied the ribbon of her dress, tugged at it, and then went to the Balcony to pull up the rattan chair opposite Wu Chen, sitting down with Wu Chen across the small tea table.

You ask first.

Wu Chen smiled and gestured to He Shiqing.

Why are you hugging me?

You said I misunderstood, so why did you hug me?

Dare you say you didn't do it on purpose?

He Shiqin then sniffed and asked.

He seems to have grasped this point.

I admit I did it on purpose.

Wu Chen smiled.

Then what are you still saying? I'm right here now, I'm not leaving. Do whatever you want to me, just hurry up and do it. I just hope you don't come looking for me again.

He Shiqin has truly come to terms with things, but I did it on purpose for Ding Ruilong's benefit.

Wu Chen smiled slightly.

He Shiqing was startled and then surprised. He suddenly stood up and looked around.

I'm extremely nervous and a little scared.

Ding Runlong is not here.

Do it, do it, don't be nervous.

Wu Chen then gestured with a smile.

Then you should tell him to show it.

He asked He Shixin.

Wu Chen was still uneasy.

The security cameras in the hallway will capture the scene of me putting my arm around you as we enter the room.

Wu Chen said.

He Shiqing considered it for a moment, but didn't immediately understand.

Sit down and let's talk.

Wu Chen gestured to him again, He Shiqin then sat down.

The open records will register our ID card information, which is online and can be obtained through connections.

Wu Chen smiled and said to He Shiqin, "Ding Ruilong has been investigating me. Although he can't have someone watching me all the time, and the information he has about me isn't updated in real time, as long as I proactively remind him in some way, he will check my hotel records and find out that you and I came to this hotel today."

If he is fortunate enough to arrange for someone to investigate the situation, he will also obtain the hotel's CCTV footage from today.

So one day in the future, he will see us, dressed appropriately, checking into the hotel and going upstairs together through surveillance video.

I put my arm around you and we went into the room. What do you think he'll think?

He Shiqian's expression became particularly interesting. When He Wu Chen heard He Shiqin's words, he first felt that Wu Chen was framing him. He Shiqin knew all too well how extreme Ding Zhengrong's personality was, even though he and Ding Runlong had broken up more than ten years ago.

Furthermore, Ding Runlong doesn't mean that other women can't touch the women he's been with. After all, Ding Runlong has been with far too many women, but if he doesn't like them anymore, he doesn't care. They can date and get married as they please, and Ding Runlong Ding Ruilong n't mind.

He Shiqin was different. She wasn't the kind of woman Ding Renlong could easily obtain; she was a goddess he risked his life for, even killing people, to win over. Her significance was different.

Furthermore, He Shiqin is the mother of Ding Ruilong's illegitimate daughter, and she raised He Xinxin. This is extremely important. No matter what Ding Ruilong does, no matter how much he disowns He Xinxin, he would never allow his daughter to call another man "Dad."

Therefore, He Shiqi must never fall in love, must never marry a man, and He Xinxin's stepfather is a creature that must never exist in this world.

These factors, combined with Ding Ruilong's personality, led to the fact that even though Ding Ruilong hadn't seen He Shiqin for many years, he would absolutely not allow He Shiqin to have a man.

Because of He Xinxin's presence, He Shiqin has essentially become Ding Ruilong's foreign affairs agent.

He Shiqin was well aware of these things, so after hearing what Wu Chen said, she subconsciously felt that he was being framed.

If Ding Runlong found out she had booked a hotel room with some man, she definitely wouldn't die.

After all, more than ten years before their breakup, there were men who pursued her, confessed their feelings in public, and even dined with her.

He Sheqin has always been young, and of course, she has had feelings for love and a return to a normal life.

Ding Ruilong never discussed this with her. He simply made all the men who had pursued her leave or disappear suddenly. Xin Xin still needed He Shiqin's care, so Ding Runlong found out about this.

He Shixin's judgment was that Ding Ruilong would definitely not kill him, but he would also definitely not let him off easily and would bring him great trouble, so it was a setup.

But after thinking about it carefully, He Shiqing felt something was wrong. If Ding Ruilong found out about this, the furious Ding Ruilong wouldn't kill him, but he would definitely kill the man who had booked a room with He Shiqin, namely Wu Chen.

Wu Chen's actions weren't just setting someone up; they were practically courting death, a self-inflicted act of utter suicidal folly.

Sleeping with other men's women, or rather, wives and mistresses, is something you're afraid of being found out about.

Wu Chen, however, did the opposite, and he hadn't even moved yet.

He knew the truth but wanted Ding Ruilong to misunderstand, making him feel like he had been cheated on.

He Shixin was completely confused. He couldn't understand why you would do something like this, after all that work had been going on in the room for so long.

He Shiqing spoke.

What do you think?

Wu Chen smiled and asked in return.

You and Ding Ruilong?

He Shijin thought for a moment, then his voice softened before he asked, "Do you have a grudge against him?"

This is the most logical guess, and also the easiest to guess.

Uh-huh?

Wu Chen nodded.

He Shiqin was taken aback, but felt a strange sense of relief.

Because he hated anyone who got close to Ding Ruilong or had a good relationship with him; they were all part of Ding Ruilong's persona.

Conversely, he doesn't dislike people who have a grudge against Ding Ruilong.

Over the years, he had wondered more than once, why Ding Ruilong wasn't dead yet?

Why didn't anyone kill him?

So who exactly are you?

Is your real name Wu Chen?

What exactly do you do?

What is your grudge against Ding Ruilong?

He Shiqin asked again.

You know Li Jia, right?

Wu Chen countered with a question.

When will diligence be known?

He Shiqin nodded.

What about Li Ruobing?

Wu Chen then asked if he knew.

He Shiqin nodded again.

He was unaware that the connection between the Li Family and Li Ruobing stemmed from a phone call he had with Ding Runlong a few years prior, during which Ding Runlong warned him about his marriage and mentioned certain information and names.

At that time, He Shiqin knew that the Li Family was a family similar to the Ding Family.

Although He Shiqin didn't even know the inner workings of the Ding Family, and it was difficult for him to know the specifics of a large family, he knew how powerful and influential the Ding Family was. Therefore, he could judge what kind of family the Li Family was and knew Li Ruobing's identity.

Li Ruobing is my woman.

Wu Chen smiled at He Shiqin again.

He Shiqin was stunned again. Four years ago, Li Jia and Ding Jia decided to get married. Then Wu Chen started talking again, briefly explaining the relationship between Ding Jia and Li Jia, Li Ruobing's refusal to marry, and even the Bet. He didn't care if He Shiqing knew, he needed to make He Shiqing understand his relationship with Li Ruobing and Ding Ruilong.

A few minutes later, we had said almost everything.

Ding Ruilong was insanely obsessed with obtaining weak soldiers, just as he had been when he killed for you, perhaps even more so.

So he wants me dead. In the end, one of us has to die. It's a fight to the death.

Wu Chen smiled again after speaking.

So you contacted me, which led Ding Ruilong to misunderstand.

After listening, He Shiqin paused for a moment, speaking slowly. She thought that she asked the question to get revenge on Ding Ruilong, to frame him, to anger him. But it wasn't just to anger him; Ding Ruilong had an extreme personality, and she needed him to make a mistake so that he would die faster.

Wu Chen smiled at He Shiqin, and also, not only him, but his whole family would die.

He Shiqi looked shocked. Wu Chen said he would kill Ding Runlong, and whether he could do it or not, he would fight Ding Runlong to the death. It was no problem for him to make such a statement, but Ding Family He Shiqin knew how terrifying the Ding Family was; he had experienced it firsthand.

If you can testify to the Dong Family that Ding Ruilong killed Dong Yuantou, then given the Dong Family's current power, they will definitely go to war with the Ding Family and send them to the Ding Family doom.

Wu Chen then bluntly stated that He Shiqin didn't know how capable Dong Jia was. At most, she would only think that the fact that Ding Runlong killed Dong Yuantao had been exposed, which would bring trouble to Ding Runlong, but that was all. Therefore, it was necessary to make it clear to him.

He Shiqin's expression changed drastically, shifting several times. He thought of many things. He realized that if things got this serious, Ding Runlong might kill him to prevent Dong Yuantao's affair from being exposed, as long as Ding Runlong found out he had booked a room with Wu Chen.

He Shiqin suddenly thought of an even more important issue for him: He Xinxin was Ding Ruilong's daughter, so whether Wu Chen's target was the entire Ding Family, or whether Wu Chen was a mortal enemy of Ding Runlong, it could affect his confidence.

Furthermore, if Wu Chen were to take things to an extreme and retaliate against Xin Xin, then... As for Li Jia, I've already spoken with Li Maoren. Li Jia will break with Ding Jia and become the assistant in bringing down the Ding Family.

So if you agree, you and Xin Xin will come with me to the East Sea. I will arrange for people to protect you, and when the right opportunity arises, I will arrange for you to meet Dong Jia.

Wu Chen spoke very bluntly again, and He Shiqin's expression was still quite off. She was thinking, "A free life is beckoning you, Miss He Shixin."

Wu Chen smiled and said again, "You hate Ding Ruilong, right?"

The term "Miss" was somewhat strange to He Shiqin, since her daughter was already 14 years old and it would be more appropriate to address her as "Ms." But Wu Chen called her "Miss," which could be considered a form of psychological suggestion.

He Shiqin is truly still young, in his prime, with a long and wonderful life ahead of him to enjoy.

After a long silence, He Shiqing, lost in thought, suddenly stood up, walked to the window of the enclosed Balcony, and drew the curtains.

Then he turned to look at Wu Chen, took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I hate him, I hate Ding Ruilong, I wish he were dead right now, and why pretend to make him misunderstand?"

Wouldn't it be better to just let him actually wear a hat and act like a turtle?

As she spoke, He Shiqin suddenly began to untie her skirt and start taking it off; she did it on her own initiative.

This concludes this episode. We hope you'll continue listening!
