Ruyi didn't respond.
Wang Dahai called her directly, and she actually answered.
"What's up?"
"Nothing much, I just wanted to see Mrs. Bai."
"Don't you need to accompany your girlfriend?"
"She had to go to work overtime suddenly."
"Humph, girlfriend went to work and you started thinking about another woman? You little rascal, I knew you were no good."
Wang Dahai didn't bite at that comment: "Mrs. Bai, where are you?"
"With a handsome guy in a hotel."
"Stop joking."
"Who's joking with you?"
Ruyi then sent a photo from inside the hotel.
Wang Dahai's eyes widened, his mind a bit confused.
After that, no matter what he sent, Ruyi didn't reply anymore.
Just when he was getting extremely anxious, Vivi suddenly called: "Wang, what are you doing?"
"Nothing, just idling."
"Then come over to my place."
Wang Dahai was intrigued and asked, "Your parents aren't home?"
"They are."
"Your mom is at home?"
Damn!
Ruyi, you're playing me!
"Yes," Vivi said. "My dad asked me to see if you could come over, he's been having some back pain these past two days."
"Okay, I'll come over now."
After hanging up, Wang Dahai thought for a moment and then called Liu Lin.
Ever since the last time she went to see Mr. Liu, she hadn't talked much with Wang Dahai.
Wang Dahai believed that nothing had happened between her and Mr. Liu that day.
But it was obvious that she had feelings for Mr. Liu.
The two of them must have had a romance in the past, and now Mr. Liu reaching out to her seemed like old flames might be rekindling.
"Dahai, what's up?"
"Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Bai asked me to come over to give her a massage, I'll drive your car there."
His car was basically driven by Wang Dahai now, but since it was in use all day, it still had to be mentioned.
It was also a legitimate reason.
Upon hearing this, Liu Lin was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay, then you go."
After hanging up, Wang Dahai arrived at Ruyi's house.
He parked the car, grabbed his phone, and headed towards the building.
It was only on the way that he realized Ruyi had sent him several messages during that time.
"This young guy isn't too bad, pretty tough."
"Really , it's tough getting older, managed to do it twice in half an hour and almost couldn't carry on."
Wang Dahai's lips twitched as he read, and he played along.
When he arrived at the door, he texted: "Open the door."
"?"
"I'm at your door."
"I'm not home."
"Ha, well I'm knocking now."
"Why are you here?"
"Mr. Liu sent me."
With that, he knocked on the door.
Vivi opened it.
"Wang, you're here."
"Hmm."
Wang Dahai entered with a smile, changed his shoes, and then saw Mr. Liu sitting on the couch.
It was only when he entered the living room that he saw Bai Ruyi also coming out of the room.
"Mrs. Bai, Mr. Liu."
When he looked at Bai Ruyi, he took the opportunity when Mr. Liu wasn't paying attention to give her a "keep acting" look.
Bai Ruyi rolled her eyes at him, but she felt somewhat ashamed.
She had initially tricked him with some photos from the internet, but he had seen through her.
Double massage in half an hour . . .
The very thought was deeply embarrassing.
Mr. Liu stood up and said, "Dahai's here, I feel bad for calling you over."
"I wasn't busy anyway." Wang Dahai came over and sat down, and Liu Weiwei poured a cup of tea before returning to her room.
Mr. Liu swung his arm and said, "My arm has been sore the past couple of days; I don't know if it's a stiff neck or what."
Wang Dahai came over and massaged him a few times, saying, "It's not a stiff neck, just muscle fatigue. Mr. Liu, do you exercise regularly? It might be due to improper posture. Just correct it next time, and you'll be fine."
"I'll go wash my hands. Do you want to stay on the couch or go to the room, Mr. Liu?"
"Let's go to the room." Mr. Liu looked at Bai Ruyi. "Wife, want to join for a massage?"
"I'll pass." Bai Ruyi shook her head, and her expression gave no hint of any discord between her and Mr. Liu.
So, Bai Ruyi hadn't said anything to Mr. Liu?
Mr. Liu probably still didn't know that Bai Ruyi was aware of his meeting with Liu Lin, and had started making unfavorable assumptions and was already retaliating through infidelity.
After washing his hands, Wang Dahai went to the room to massage Mr. Liu.
After massaging for a while, Wang Dahai suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, there's something I'm not sure I should tell you."
"What's the matter?" Mr. Liu was almost asleep but perked up a bit, curious.
He and Wang Dahai were hardly close, so he was eager to know what he could possibly have to say to him.
Wang Dahai said, "I must mention, you can't tell Mrs. Bai about what I'm about to say—it's completely unfounded speculation on my part."
Mr. Liu became alert and asked, "What did you see?"
He wondered if perhaps his wife was having an affair, and Wang Dahai had witnessed it.
Wang Dahai lowered his voice and said, "Last week when Mrs. Liu came over, I was the one who drove her here."
Mr. Liu was startled. "And then?"
Wang Dahai said, "Later, Mrs. Liu asked me to pick up Mrs. Bai to take her back to the shop for a massage."
Mr. Liu didn't speak, quietly guessing something, and waited for him to continue.
"I picked up Mrs. Bai from school, but she didn't want to go to the shop—she wanted to go home."
Upon finishing this sentence, Wang Dahai felt Mr. Liu's muscles tense up, a clear sign of his nervousness, as he stuttered, "Then, then what?"
"I felt something wasn't right then and thought about messaging Mrs. Liu, but just before reaching the apartment complex, Mrs. Bai changed her mind about going home. Later, I just drove her around aimlessly, let her off at the side of the road, and then went back."
Wang Dahai said, "Mr. Liu, is there something between you and Mrs. Liu? I shouldn't really ask, but after all, both Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Bai are my elders."
"What I mean is, you might need to be extra cautious, at the very least, you could take down the camera at home."
After a long silence, Mr. Liu finally said, "There's nothing between me and Linlin."
It's all Linlin, and still nothing? Who would believe that?
"I just wanted to talk to her that day, invited her over, but nothing happened... I knew about the camera at home, and I deliberately didn't avoid it. After all, we haven't done anything wrong. What's there to hide? The more you hide, the more it suggests there's a problem."
"After chatting for over an hour, she left."
Wang Dahai roughly understood; he still had some feelings for Liu Lin.
But bound by morality, even though he had thoughts, acting on them would need some time to adjust.
As for not avoiding the camera, just as he said, it was intentional.
The innocent cleanse themselves.
Wang Dahai said with a bitter smile, "Mr. Liu, at that time, Mrs. Bai called Mrs. Liu to ask where she was, and she said she was out and didn't mention coming to your house. Think about it, what would Mrs. Bai feel hearing that? Even if Mrs. Bai knew nothing happened, it didn't matter."
"Once the seed of doubt is sown, it will take root and grow."
Mr. Liu remained silent for a long while, and only after the massage was finished did he say, "Thank you."
As Wang Dahai was about to leave the room, Mr. Liu suddenly stopped him, saying, "Dahai, if you have time these days, come over and give more massages to your Mrs. Bai."
Then he lowered his voice and added, "Help me check the waters."
