Chapter 131: Is Sleeping with My Wife Illegal?

Chapter 131: Is Sleeping with My Wife Illegal?

In Huo Tingying's eyes, her glare lacked any intimidation and instead seemed like a flirtatious glance. He wished to pin the woman back onto the bed and relive what had just transpired. But ultimately, he cared for her well-being and brought over a cake that was prepared nearby.

"Good girl, have something to eat."

Yun Mu's stomach betrayed her hunger with a rumble.

There was a table by the bed, and Yun Mu didn't pretend to be coy. She wrapped herself in the blanket and began eating the cake.

She was truly famished.

Leaning against the headboard, Yun Mu lifted her sore arms and slowly savored the cake.

Huo Tingying attempted to feed her but was rejected; thus, he left for a moment. When he returned, he carried a food box.

Upon opening it, the aroma of dishes filled the air, and the spread was plentiful.

Yun Mu glanced sideways. "You're quite considerate."

After eating her fill and wiping her face, Yun Mu got down to business.

"Where is Yun Shuiyao?"

"Downstairs on the first floor."

"What does she plan to do?" The thought of falling into Yun Shuiyao's trap fueled Yun Mu's desire to end her life!

Huo Tingying explained, "I've already investigated. The alcohol was given to Yun Shuiyao by Huo Jizhou. Today's scenario was orchestrated by Yun Shuiyao—she wanted you and me to engage in intimate activities here, then have 'Huo Tingying' catch us in the act, allowing the crowd downstairs to witness the spectacle. Ideally, she hoped to anger the recuperating 'Huo Tingying' to death after his surgery."

A hint of coldness flashed in Yun Mu's eyes.

"But you're right here. Where would she wait for 'Huo Tingying'?"

Huo Tingying smiled. "Rest assured, everything is arranged."

At the hotel banquet hall.

All the noble ladies and young masters surrounded Yun Shuiyao.

Despite the scandal at the previous banquet, Yun Shuiyao was adept at socializing and charming everyone, ensuring they couldn't deny her respect.

"Second Miss Yun, what surprise did you mention for today's banquet?"

Yun Shuiyao smiled mysteriously. "An earth-shattering show."

"Is it related to Yun Mu? I saw her in this hotel earlier, seemingly with the President of the Emperor Group." Someone commented, "Second Miss Yun, their relationship isn't news anymore."

"Whether it's fresh or not isn't up to us to decide. Just wait and see."

Yun Shuiyao checked the time, turned around, and finally smiled. "Huo Tingying has arrived."

At the hotel entrance.

Feng Shuo, under the pressure from his young master, reluctantly wore a black coat and sat in his master's wheelchair as he entered the hotel. He was made up to appear weak and sickly.

Yun Shuiyao immediately recognized the sickly man before her—the same one she had seen at the Huo residence.

She approached him eagerly.

The nobles of the capital followed suit, ready for the drama.

Standing before Feng Shuo, Yun Shuiyao spoke softly and sweetly, "Are you Young Master Huo? Are you looking for your sister?"

Everyone took a sharp breath upon seeing Feng Shuo's pale and weak appearance.

This was Yun Mu's husband, who, although somewhat handsome, looked far too frail!

Whispers circulated among the crowd.

"No wonder Yun Mu cheated; this man clearly can't handle it."

"It seems there will be an affair exposed. Let's follow and see."

Yun Shuiyao aimed for this reaction, enthusiastically pushing Feng Shuo's wheelchair forward. "I know which room my sister is in; I'll take you there."

However, she froze when she met Feng Shuo's sharp and cold gaze.

Feng Shuo coughed lightly and whispered, "Just tell me the room number."

Having experienced countless battles alongside Huo Tingying, Feng Shuo's gaze had subdued Yun Shuiyao.

Daring not to act recklessly, she led the way obediently.

Upon reaching Room 306, Yun Shuiyao knocked impatiently.

Yun Mu, who had been waiting, quickly opened the door.

Yun Mu wore a veil but had disheveled hair, a disarrayed outfit, and marks of intimacy on her neck.

Combined with the messy sheets behind her and the sound of showering coming from the bathroom, it wasn't hard to guess what had occurred in the room.

Wench, you were quite vigorous earlier!

Yun Shuiyao struggled to contain her excitement but feigned shock. "Oh my! Brother-in-law, I'm sorry. I didn't know there was a man in Sister's room. How could you do such a thing behind Brother-in-law's back? You're disgracing both the Yun and Huo families, utterly shameless…"

"Silence!" Before Yun Shuiyao could finish, Feng Shuo barked, "If you continue spouting nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Does this wretched woman want me to get fired by Young Master? How dare she call me brother-in-law?

Yun Shuiyao was taken aback by his roar.

At that moment, Feng Shuo respectfully turned to Yun Mu, "Young Lady, I've come to pick you and the Young Master up."

Everyone sucked in a cold breath.

Did that man just call Yun Mu 'Young Lady'?

And he's here to pick her up, as if he knew all along that Yun Mu was messing around with Yi Jue here.

Could it be... he isn't Yun Mu's husband?

What's going on?

Yun Shuiyao's mind was in turmoil, and she finally came to a conclusion.

"Yun Mu, trying to deceive us again? I went to the Huo family before, and I clearly saw that man is your sickly husband."

Yun Mu casually flicked her hair, her red lips curling slightly as she glanced at everyone indifferently, finally looking at Yun Shuiyao with a sneer. "So, any man who appears at the Huo residence is my husband? Did he tell you that personally?"

Yun Shuiyao's expression changed rapidly. "Brother-in-law, don't be afraid! Even if the other party is Yi Jue, Yun Mu is your wife. Catching her in the act of cheating is tarnishing your name and the Huo family's reputation! There's no need for you to cover for her! With just one word from you, I can have my father and brothers come to back you up immediately!"

At this point, Yun Shuiyao still didn't forget to fan the flames, attempting to provoke "Huo Tingying."

The sound of water in the bathroom abruptly stopped, and the room fell silent.

The originally aggressive crowd stiffened when they heard the bathroom door open.

Yun Shuiyao's gaze also landed on the bathroom door, fully aware that from today onwards, she had no chance with that man.

Huo Tingying had just finished showering, his black hair slightly curled with droplets of water, wearing a black silk robe with a loosely tied belt that revealed a tantalizing glimpse of his chest muscles.

His perfect physique stirred the imagination.

Most striking, however, were the conspicuous and suggestive marks on his honey-colored neck!

Despite the awkward situation, there was not a hint of panic on him; every move he made exuded an incomparable composure.

Huo Tingying, now the center of everyone's attention, merely gave them a cursory glance before sitting down on the sofa as if no one else was present, then lit a cigarette.

After a moment, he blew out a long smoke ring, smiling faintly. "Who let you in?"

His smile was light but as cold as frost.

Yun Shuiyao shivered but mustered up her courage.

"President Yi, we didn't expect things to be like this. Why don't you explain?"

Huo Tingying held the cigarette between his lips, squinting as he looked up. "Explain what? Are you saying it's illegal for me to sleep with my wife?"
