You Don't Know the Situation

Welcome to "I'm Trapped in the Same Day for a Thousand Years," exclusively produced by Feilu Novel Network, narrated by Sang Ze Wang Xiaomo Lao He.

Because of this Brother Wu, Hu Xueling looked Wu Chen up and down again. He still didn't understand what Lei Cheng meant, because he didn't know who Wu Chen was and couldn't judge based on just a surname.

There are too many people with the surname Wu; it's not an obscure surname.

Hu Xilin's thinking hadn't quite caught on, especially given Wu Chen's young age. His immediate guess was about Wu Chen's family background—whose son was he?

Old Lei, what's your relationship with this Brother Wu?

Hu Xuelin raised her hand and gestured, then asked a question.

Li Ruobing is my younger brother's wife.

Lei Cheng chuckled to himself.

Hu Xilin was stunned. After a moment of realization, he understood what Lei Cheng meant by calling Li Ruobing "sister-in-law." He had always called Wu Chen" brother" or "Brother Wu," which meant that Li Ruobing was this "Brother Wu's" woman!

Are you Wu Chen?

Hu Xuelin's uncle suddenly remembered and seemed to understand.

He finally realized that this Brother Wu was the boyfriend of Li Ruobin, the one that was being talked about throughout the East Sea Business Circle.

It's me.

Wu Chen smiled at Hu Xilin, a subtle emotion written on his face, and the study suddenly fell silent.

Hu Xilin glanced at Lei Cheng, then at Wu Chen. He felt like he'd been tricked by Lei Cheng, and a very awkward feeling made him restless.

Wu Chen is the real culprit. Hu Xuelin just went to persuade Lei Cheng to let Tao Manying terminate her contract in front of Wu Chen, and even gave him all sorts of ideas for Lei Cheng to deceive Ruobing. Wu Chen was sitting there, it was so awkward.

Hu Xilin now felt like he was caught in the middle, unable to persuade Lei Cheng and having offended Li Ruobing as well. All he could do was let Wu Chen go back and say something.

Meanwhile, Hu Xilin was also speculating about Wu Chen's true identity.

Lei Chen and Wu Chen addressed each other as brothers, and Lei Chen even addressed Li Ruobin as his sister-in-law from Wu Chen's perspective.

Lei, are you deliberately messing with me?

Hu Xilin suddenly slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and shouted at Lei Cheng.

He genuinely felt that Lei Cheng was very disloyal; he hadn't just kept Wu Chen's identity a secret—wasn't that setting him up for failure?

What are you shouting for!

Lei Cheng also stood up abruptly, his voice even louder than Hu Xuelin's, "I told you to come! I've said it so many times! It has nothing to do with you! But you insisted on being Lei You's mouthpiece. I begged you to come!"

They started arguing immediately. It wasn't the first time the two had argued; they had argued before, and also because of Lei You.

Old Lei, you have no conscience! All these years, Hu Xilin has been asking you to pay back the money, and what benefits Lei You in return?

Lei Cheng interrupted Hu Xilin directly, his voice still urgent. "I talk to him every day, he almost killed me, my wife is dead, are you blind to keep doing things for him?"

Old Lei, do you have any evidence for what you're saying?

It was an accident back then. I know you resent your dad for giving the company to your brother, but you can't just make unfounded suspicions!

I've known Lei You for over ten years. I know what kind of person he is. What do you know about him?

Lei Cheng retorted directly, "You're so rude, Lei Chen! Let me tell you!" Hu Xuelin was also extremely angry, so angry that she didn't know what to say.

Alright, alright, Brother Lei, say no more. We've known each other for so many years, it's not worth it.

Wu Chen spoke up at this moment, pulling Lei Cheng aside to try and break up the fight.

Lei Cheng turned to look at Wu Chen, then, as if suppressing his anger, sat down with a dark face. He then gestured to Hu Xuelin and said, "Old Hu, let me tell you, my brother is here today. I don't want to argue with you because of Lei You. We've argued several times already, and it's never-ending. What are you saying?"

Let's not talk about the past, is this your older brother's fault?

Didn't you bring this on yourself?

Hu Xuelin was still somewhat persistent. He gestured and looked at Wu Chen, his tone softening considerably.

Mr. Wu, since you're here, you heard what I just said.

Hu Xuelin wouldn't argue with Wu Chen; he wanted to reason with Wu Chen. He and Lei Cheng were brothers, and they had a bond, so a few words between them wouldn't matter. But it had nothing to do with Wu Chen.

Mr. Wu, just tell me I wasn't doing this for Thor, okay?

Hu Xilin said to Wu Chen.

I don't know what your relationship is with Lao Lei, Mr. Wu, but if this matter involving Ding Ruilong and the Ding Family escalates, and the Ding Family causes trouble for Lao Lei, is it really worth it?

Mr. Wu, since you and Lao Lei are brothers, shouldn't a brother consider his brother's feelings? Don't you think so?

You're Lao Li's brother, would you really betray him?

Hu Xilin's outburst at Lei Cheng was indeed impulsive, but it might not have been unintentional. He's quite shrewd; in the heat of the moment, he directly addressed Wu Chen, not only defusing the previous awkwardness but also subtly pressuring Wu Chen to take a stand. He still wants to help Lei Cheng resolve the issue. There aren't many friends who would go to such lengths as him.

Old Hu, what are you saying?

You mean if I can't be a brother, I have to be a coward?

Before Wu Chen could speak, Lei Cheng spoke first, directly rebuking Hu Xuelin.

His portrayal of the white-faced character was spot-on; only he could pull it off, because he was the one who had paid money to Hu Xuelin.

"What the hell, Lao Lei? Hu Xuelin is yelling at Lei Chen again!" Just then, the sound of high heels came from outside the door, and then the door opened. It was Tao Manying, who opened the door halfway and stood outside, asking, "Why are you arguing again?"

She heard the arguing from downstairs and came up to check.

This wasn't the first time he'd heard Hu Xuelin and Lei Cheng arguing, and he wasn't Lei Cheng's mistress in the conventional sense; in this Villa, he was also the lady of the house.

Lei Cheng truly dotes on Tao Manying; he's spent hundreds of millions of yuan over the years trying to make Tao Manying famous.

Seeing Tao Manying come over, Lei Cheng and Hu Xuelin seemed to calm down a bit. Hu Xuelin sat down immediately, while Lei Cheng said to the door, "It's nothing. Hey Da Bao, make some food. We'll eat at home tonight."

Tao Man agreed without saying anything more, glanced at the study, and then closed the door.

As the footsteps faded into the distance, Boss Hu, Wu Chen, spoke directly from the study, "I know you mean well, but you don't understand the situation."

First of all, I can tell you very clearly that Lei You was the mastermind behind that car accident 10 years ago.

Hu Xilin's expression changed, and he immediately said, "Mr. Wu, I'm not questioning you, and we're not even acquainted, but I have to say, you can't just say things like that. If there's no evidence, then there is!"

Wu Chen interrupted Hu Xilin.

What?

What evidence?

Hu Xuelin's face immediately showed surprise; he had never believed the rumor that Lei You had caused the car accident to kill Lei Cheng.

The person who caused the car accident years ago has been found.

Wu Chen said.

Hu Xuelin's expression changed drastically. He could testify that Lei You was the one who did it.

As Wu Chen spoke, he smiled and said that soon he would urge Brother Lei to send Lei You to prison. This was already underway, but it would take some time to make arrangements in secret.

Hu Xuelin was stunned. Wu Chen's words revealed a huge amount of information. The most important point was that Wu Chen said he was going to kill Lei You Brother Lei take back the family property. Lei Cheng was doing it, and Wu Chen was helping Lei Cheng do it.

Hu Xilin was speechless. He looked at Wu Chen in a daze, then at Lei Cheng, and then back at Wu Chen.

Just as Wu Chen said, Hu Xilin was unaware of the situation. He had realized that he truly didn't know anything. He didn't think Wu Chen was lying, as this was a huge matter. Lei Cheng wouldn't lie with Wu Chen, so it really was Lei You who did it.

Then, Wu Chen changed the subject, reached out and pressed down on the phone that was on the coffee table, and swung it at Hu Xilin.

Boss Hu, you can take a look at the video I just filmed this afternoon.

Hu Xuelin pressed down on the phone that was swiping towards him. He hadn't calmed down yet; his mind was filled with the fact that Lei Cheng had found evidence to deal with Lei You.

Hu Xilin glanced at Wu Chen before picking up his phone and looking down at it. The screen was still playing a video, but the progress bar had been scrolled back.

Hu Xuelin glanced at Wu Chen and Lei Cheng, who still seemed angry and expressionless, before pressing play.

A dozen seconds later, Hu Xilin, who was watching the video, suddenly changed color.

He initially thought the video was about the driver who caused the car accident, or perhaps about Lei You, but he never imagined it was about his wife.

The video content is very clear, and the audio is also very clear.

Hu Xilin's face grew increasingly grim, and a small bump gradually appeared on his forehead.

Men are driven by physiology to have affairs, while women mostly don't think about divorce. Even though they themselves have cheated, they are extremely angry about their wives' infidelity.

For several minutes, Hu Xilin watched the video in complete silence, watching intently. The more he watched, the heavier his breathing became.

Finally, Hu Xilin didn't finish watching the video; he closed it and put his phone down.

He had previously acted somewhat impulsively, but now he was much calmer, though his expression was rather frightening.

Mr. Wu, did you take these photos this afternoon?

Hu Xilin looked up at Wu Chen and asked.

Yes, around 4 PM.

Wu Chen looked at Hu Xilin in a calm tone. "Zhu Haobo is Lei You's confidant, so I checked him out. Unfortunately, I saw the person he was dating."

Although I knew who the woman Zhu Haobo was with was, I didn't know Boss Hu.

As Wu Chen spoke, he glanced at Lei Cheng, then turned to Hu Xie, the leader, and said, "So I was thinking of giving the video to Brother Lei Brother Lei would then pass it on to you as a reminder."

I never expected that we would meet today.

Hu Xilin glanced at Lei Cheng; Lei Cheng had mentioned this to me before.

Wu Chen continued, saying that he couldn't give the video to you directly because he was afraid you wouldn't be able to accept it. He suggested that he should remind you or hint at it first. He thought he should just show it to you directly.

Hu Xilin looked at Wu Chen again and realized that Wu Chen had accidentally discovered this while helping Lei Cheng investigate Haobo.

But Wu Chen's next words made his expression change again; this matter couldn't be delayed.

Wu Chen looked at Hu Xilin. If a woman's heart changes, she will definitely think about divorce. But because of your prenuptial agreement, Qian Ruiling doesn't dare to mention divorce easily, for fear that you will suspect her.

Wu Chen mentioned a prenuptial agreement, signed 20 years ago, which was known only to Hu Xilin, Qian Ruiling, and their families.

How did Wu Chen find out?

That's what I'm afraid of.

Wu Chen continued, saying that one day Zhu Haobo might get the idea and instigate Qian Ruiling and the other to join forces to seize your property. It was hard to say what methods they would use. Wu Chen was almost about to say the words "murder for money".

Because of her prenuptial agreement, Qian Ruiling doesn't dare to mention divorce, but she wants a divorce and wants her share of the property. What can she do?

Wu Chen was saying that Zhu Haobo instigated it, which is basically framing Zhu Haobo, but it's not exactly a case of false accusation, because it's entirely possible that this kind of thing could continue to develop.

So, Wu Chen, keep smiling. Boss Hu, the sooner you know about this, the better, so you can make arrangements in advance and ensure you get the majority of the assets in the divorce.

The study was quiet. Hu Xilin's expression was uncertain; he had things he couldn't understand, but those didn't matter anymore. He didn't think Wu Chen would harm him, because Wu Chen and Lei Cheng were brothers. Lei Cheng was his brother?

Lei Cheng is sitting right here, and we've discussed this face-to-face. Brother Wu is right.

Lei Cheng suddenly spoke up, his previous fiery temper completely gone. He said that Lao Huo and his wife might do something drastic.

Damn, what good could Lei You's people be? Maybe Lei You already knew all along.

Hu Xilin's expression changed again, his eyes flashing, as if he was thinking about something.

Then Old Hu Licheng gestured towards Hu Xilin, leaning closer and saying, "Don't make a fuss about this yet. Don't argue with Qian Ruiling when you get back. Just pretend nothing happened. First, settle things on your side. Make arrangements for your women. Let them leave East Sea, preferably abroad for a while. Once you've finalized the divorce and all the assets are awarded to you, then bring them back. Don't let Qian Ruiling find any fault with you during the divorce proceedings, or it will all be for nothing."

Hu Xuelin stared blankly at Lei Cheng, his expression stiff. He kept his affairs with other women a strict secret and had never introduced any of his mistresses to his friends.

Because of this marriage agreement, they dared not let even a whisper of it slip out, or they would be finished.

Hu Xilin was surprised that Lei Cheng knew when the news had leaked, but Lei Cheng knew it anyway and even offered advice to him directly.

Damn it, Li You, I'm starting to suspect that Lei You is the mastermind behind this, deliberately having Zhu Haobo seduce your wife, Qian Ruiling.

Lei Cheng started cursing Lei You again, saying that Lei You had tried to kill me back then for the sake of my property, and that I was lucky to survive. He just felt sorry for my wife.

Wu Chen tried to pin the blame on Zhu Haobo, while Lei Cheng directly and firmly pinned the blame on Lei You.

Conspiracy theories, whether Hu Xuelin believes them or not, will definitely affect his mentality.

Brother Hu, don't worry.

Lei Cheng then spoke to Hu Xilin, saying, "Once I get Lei You in, I'll definitely have someone question Zhu Haobo thoroughly. He's Lei You's lackey; he can't escape either. They'll all have to go in."

Even after everything was out in the open, Hu Xuelin still looked off and remained silent for a while.

After a long pause, Hu Xilin finally looked at Lei Cheng and said, "Thank you, Lao Lei."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Wu Chen and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wu. If you hadn't vented in time, I would have been in trouble. Sigh, there's no need for thanks. We're brothers."

Lei Cheng waved his hand, seemingly annoyed by Hu Xilin's politeness, and the atmosphere immediately became harmonious.

As Wu Chen said before, it is the art of language.

Hu Xilin understood that there was something going on, but having come this far, he had nothing more to say except thank you.

When the Lei Family fell into internal strife later, Hu Xilin not only refused to inform Lei You in advance, but also fully supported Lei Cheng.

His impression of Lei You had become extremely bad, which was one aspect. On the other hand, and most importantly, he couldn't fall out with Lei Cheng because divorce proceedings would be very lengthy, especially since it involved billions of dollars in assets; it was normal for it to take a year or two.

In this world, Lei Chen holds a handle on Hu Xilin, even though Lei Cheng doesn't show that it's a handle or intend to threaten him; on the contrary, he wants to help Hu Xilin.

But Hu Xilin himself thought that if he fell out with Lei Cheng, he would be in big trouble. If his wife found out about his affair, then things would be very bad. For the next hour, the three of them had a private talk. They first discussed how Hu Xilin should arrange things, when to file for divorce, and the best thing to do was to find an opportunity to catch Zhu Haobo and Qian Ruiling in the hotel.

Then he recounted Lei Cheng Lei You.

Around 7 p. m., Tao Manying came upstairs again to call them for dinner, so the group went downstairs to have dinner together.

Dinner was lavish, with a total of 12 dishes. The dishes were not only prepared by the nanny, but Tao Manying also cooked several dishes herself, and Zhuang Xiaodi even helped to stir-fry two dishes.

Zhuang Xiaodie was a guest, Tao Manying didn't want Zhuang Xiaodie to do it, but Zhuang Xiaodie said it was okay, since she was just idling around anyway.

In short, Zhuang Xiaodie was willing to get close to her senior, Tao Manying, and Tao Manying was also willing to build a good relationship with Zhuang Xiaodie.

The Villa was very large, and the dining room was separate. Five people closed the door to eat. Dinner had just begun, and before they could even exchange a few words, a cell phone rang in the dining room. It was Lei Cheng's.

Lei Cheng took out his phone and glanced at it, then immediately frowned.

He then glanced at Wu Chen, pressed the answer button, and put the phone to his ear.

Hello, Mr. Ding?

Lei Cheng is Ding Ruilong.

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