Chapter 675: Chapter 428: Coercion and Enticement! Achievement!

"Ms. Si..."

"You wouldn’t want Mr. Wang Chenghua to discover that photo just now, would you?"

Looking at Si Mei in front of him, Xu Liang wore a friendly smile.

As he spoke, he tugged at the collar of his shirt.

Upon seeing this.

Standing guard at the door, Li Tao, wrapped tightly in his coat, didn’t hesitate to press the shutter button once more.

"Click!"

The crisp sound startled Si Mei, who had a somber expression. She instinctively turned her head to look at Li Tao.

But it was just that glance...

A photo was taken of Si Mei, wrapped in a towel with a panic-stricken face, with Xu Liang hiding behind her.

"You!"

Si Mei was furious, her hands clenched tightly, her chest rising and falling, obviously outraged.

Playing with birds all day, yet today the bird has pecked her eyes blind...

It’s a honey trap.

Si Mei never imagined that someone would dare use a honey trap on her!

And she actually fell for it!!!

Si Mei’s expression was extremely grim, her hands clenched tightly, her nails digging into her palms, her mind racing.

If it were anyone else caught in a honey trap, at worst they’d call the police, since a honey trap isn’t considered solicitation.

But she can’t!

Once the police are involved, Wang Chenghua will inevitably find out.

Their marital affection has long faded, they don’t even remember the last time they shared a bed, under such circumstances... if she were to expose herself in a scandal, it’s certain she’d face retribution!

Dividing assets?

Forget it, Wang Chenghua has long protected his personal assets, and his monthly salary is only one yuan!

If she gets divorced, she’ll be lucky to get a few thousand.

So...

"I’ll accept this loss."

Si Mei took a deep breath, suppressing her anger.

Given the circumstances, she can only swallow this loss quietly.

"How much do you want!?" Si Mei coldly stared at Xu Liang.

"I don’t want money."

Seeing that she had taken the bait, Xu Liang immediately smiled warmly and, letting down his guard, got up from the bed, began to straighten his clothes, and said:

"I’m very interested in Mr. Wang Chenghua."

"On August 24th, 2005, who did Mr. Wang have contact with?"

"And, where was he during that time?" ℴ

Involved with Wang Chenghua?

Dark emotions flickered in Si Mei’s eyes, after a while she started probing, "Are you a business rival?"

"Ha ha, you guess."

Xu Liang laughed and waved his hand, not expressing his stance.

Seeing this, Si Mei became increasingly uncertain.

She fell deep into thought.

Honestly, if she answered his questions... it would obviously cause trouble for Wang Chenghua, potentially threatening his position.

But on the other hand, even if he were to go bankrupt, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, she could maintain her previous lavish lifestyle.

Conversely, if she did not comply and he chose to give the photo to Wang Chenghua...

Then she’d be in big trouble!

"I don’t know what happened on the 24th."

Si Mei took a deep breath, speaking hesitantly, but made a decision.

"Mrs. Wang, I believe you have the ability to find out."

Xu Liang smiled.

Si Mei’s expression became increasingly unpleasant, yet she didn’t refute, only furrowing her brow and, in an angry undertone, reprimanded:

"You’ll get the information in no more than three days."

As a spouse, even a less favored one... she could still easily obtain the information Xu Liang requested!

Of course, the premise is this ’spouse’ isn’t an idiot.

Si Mei is merely lustful, not brainless, she could completely access Xu Liang’s needed information through various channels.

"Too long."

Xu Liang shook his head.

"I’ll only give you two days."

Si Mei’s chest swelled with anger, but she suppressed it, gritting her teeth.

"Fine!"

The deal was made...

"Then I won’t keep Mrs. Wang any longer."

Xu Liang grinned, showing a comforting expression, then led his people to retreat slowly.

"Wish you sweet dreams tonight, Mrs. Wang... oh, right, the person I’m looking into seems to be named ’Zhuge Rong’, apparently he went to the Drunken Reverie KTV with Wang Chenghua."

"Please keep an eye out for that, Mrs. Wang."

As the words fell.

The hotel room door also slowly closed.

"Click!"

The door was closed.

A while later...

"Bang! Crash!"

Sounds of smashing echoed from inside the room, apparently venting anger.

Xu Liang merely glanced back and then retracted his gaze, his face showing a hint of a smile.

The two masked individuals at his side couldn’t hold back and quickly took off their hats and masks, revealing two familiar faces.

It was indeed Yang Ruoxi and Li Tao!

"Is... is this really settled!?"

Li Tao trembled, holding the camera, looking at the pictures inside, his whole worldview seemed crushed.

Shocked, utterly shocked beyond measure!

Si Mei actually agreed to do their bidding, providing them with the information!

Isn’t... is this right?

Can lawyers really obtain information this way during a lawsuit!?

"Are we really not going to get into trouble doing this?" Li Tao was still somewhat worried.

"Why would there be trouble? Did we break the law?"

Xu Liang spoke casually while walking.

"This... seems... might have?" Li Tao hesitated, quite uncertain.

A honey trap is only considered illegal under certain circumstances, it merely routineizes adultery and catching an affair, making it difficult for law enforcement.

Unless it involves solicitation or rape, and someone reports it.

"Did I commit rape? Did I solicit?"

"There’s none of that, right."

Xu Liang shrugged, claiming innocence.

"And... if I did break the law, let Si Mei go to the police and accuse me."

"Since she doesn’t choose to report, doesn’t that indirectly prove I didn’t break the law?"

"Since I didn’t break the law, her choice to give me information, why wouldn’t that be considered a legitimate means of obtaining it!?"

Is this right?

Is this truly right!?

Li Tao didn’t understand, but was deeply shocked.
