After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Upon hearing his girlfriend Honghong's words, Ma Hongyu looked at Xu Bo'an with disdain and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Our Honghong could never be that kind of person. She calls all her close friends 'darling,' which is perfectly normal. Using this as a basis for your argument is a bit far-fetched!"

Xu Bo'an looked at Ma Hongyu and said, "Of course I know that it's perfectly normal for best friends to call each other 'darling,' you don't need to tell me that. But your Honghong and that person on the phone did more than just call each other 'darling.' They were also discussing how to swindle all your money and then elope together. Use your brain and think about whether your Honghong and the person on the phone are male or female!"

Xu Bo'an has keen senses. When the fashionable woman made the phone call, he had already recognized it as a man's voice, which is why he dared to say such a thing with such certainty.

When Ma Hongyu heard Xu Bo'an's words, he remembered that Honghong sometimes made phone calls behind his back. When he asked her about it, Honghong would always tell him that she and her best friend had private things to talk about, and that men shouldn't listen. Ma Hongyu thought that Honghong was so good to him, and that she would never betray him, so he didn't think much of it. Moreover, when she made the calls, Honghong would let Ma Hongyu see the caller ID. It was a person named Xiaoli, which sounded like a woman's name, so Ma Hongyu didn't think much of it.

Hearing Xu Bo'an say this, Ma Hongyu became somewhat suspicious. This was mainly because it concerned his own assets, and he couldn't afford to be careless. Then, Ma Hongyu looked at the fashionable woman, Honghong, with a very suspicious gaze and said, "Honghong, is this true? Were you really talking to a man on the phone just now, and that's why you were avoiding me?"

The fashionable young woman named Honghong reacted quickly, looking at Ma Hongyu with a pitiful expression, and said, "Brother Hongyu, don't you believe me? I love you the most, how can you be so easily swayed by a few words from others?"

Seeing Honghong's aggrieved look, Ma Hongyu couldn't help but feel sorry for her and comforted her, saying, "Oh, I'm sorry, darling, it was my fault!"

After Ma Hongyu finished speaking, he was about to address Xu Bo'an when Xu Bo'an, holding his phone, said to Ma Hongyu, "Since you don't believe what I said, why don't you call back and try it? The first call record is the person she just talked to. Call her and you'll know if what I said is true or false."

That's right, the phone Xu Bo'an was holding at that moment belonged to the fashionable woman named Hong Hong. Xu Bo'an knew that she would never admit to such a thing without solid evidence, so when Ma Hongyu and the fashionable woman Hong Hong were being affectionate, Xu Bo'an took advantage of their inattention and easily took Hong Hong's phone out of his pocket with lightning speed.

Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, the fashionable young woman Honghong and Ma Hongyu immediately focused their attention on Xu Bo'an's hands. They then saw that Xu Bo'an was holding Honghong's phone. Honghong quickly tried to snatch the phone from Xu Bo'an's hand, but it wasn't that easy.

If the phone were in someone else's hands, she might have been able to snatch it back, but unfortunately, the phone was now in Xu Bo'an's hands, and no one could take it away from Xu Bo'an. Just as Honghong reached out to grab it, Xu Bo'an raised his hand, and the fashionable woman named Honghong missed her target.

Then, looking at Xu Bo'an with a tense expression, she shouted loudly, "You stole my phone, which is illegal, you know that? Give it back to me right now, and I might let it go!"

Seeing the fashionable young woman Honghong's anxious expression, Xu Bo'an laughed and said, "Oh, breaking the law? You're talking to me about breaking the law? If we're talking about breaking the law, then what you've done is much more serious than what I've done. Besides, I only took your phone to make a call, and I'll give it back to you after I'm done. What are you so nervous about?"

The fashionable woman named Honghong said, "I spent nearly ten thousand yuan on this phone. How could I let a stranger take such an expensive thing?"

Xu Bo'an said again, "I told you I only borrowed your phone to make a call, I'll return it to you in a bit!"

Fashionable young woman Honghong said, "Do you know that you're infringing on someone else's property? That's my phone. It's my freedom not to let you use it to make calls. Give it back to me right now!"

Normally, Honghong would delete the call logs before making a call, but today she was in a hurry to get Ma Hongyu and Ye Xingning to pay her back and hadn't had time to delete them yet. She figured Ma Hongyu was busy settling accounts with Ye Xingning and wouldn't care who she was talking to, so she didn't think much of it.

Little did she know that Xu Bo'an had noticed her call, which was really unfortunate, so she was very anxious.

Xu Bo'an said, "Stop talking nonsense. If you have nothing to hide, call back now and prove your innocence!"

The fashionable woman named Honghong, with her neck stiff, said to Xu Bo'an, "I'm innocent. What do I need to prove? Give me back my phone!"

Xu Bo'an looked at Ma Hongyu and said, "Ma Hongyu, right? You see? Your Ms. Hong reacted so strongly as soon as she heard that the call was to be made back. Anyone with eyes can see that she has something to hide!"

The fashionable woman named Honghong said, "I don't need to prove to you whether I have a guilty conscience or not. As long as my brother Hongyu believes me, that's enough. We're talking about the ownership of the company's shares. Why are you asking me questions? Don't try to distract Hongyu!"

Ma Hongyu added, "Yes, I'm here today to settle scores with Ye Xingning. Don't try to change the subject!"

Xu Bo'an looked at Ma Hongyu and chuckled, saying, "The reason I said your Honghong has an improper character is because I don't want to see you foolishly take the money from Ye Xingning and then get scammed. Your reckless actions are just benefiting others. In the end, you'll only end up with nothing, being sold out and still happily counting money for the other party. Do you really want that?"

After hearing Xu Bo'an's words, Ma Hongyu thought it was just a simple phone call and nothing serious. So he said to the fashionable woman, "Honghong, how about this? It's just a phone call, right? Anyway, I believe you're innocent. He'll give your phone back after you make the call!"

Fashionable young woman Honghong pretended to be disappointed when she heard Ma Hongyu's words and looked at him, saying, "I misjudged you. Someone stole my phone, and not only did you not help me get it back, you also asked me to cooperate with him. What kind of logic is that?"

Seeing Honghong's angry expression, Ma Hongyu quickly said, "I also tried to take your phone from him, but he was too strong, and I couldn't win." The fashionable Honghong retorted, "I'm already upset that my phone was taken from me, why should I let him do whatever he wants? Even if I don't want the phone, I can't let him treat me like this. It's a complete insult to me, you know?"

Ma Hongyu coaxed Honghong, saying, "Okay, okay, then we won't take it. We won't put up with this humiliation. Once I get the money from Ye Xingning, I'll buy you an even better one!"

After hearing Ma Hongyu say those words, the fashionable young woman Honghong smiled at him and said, "I knew Brother Hongyu was the best to me!"

It has to be said that this fashionable young woman named Honghong is quite clever. She used such words to persuade Ma Hongyu, so that she would have less to worry about her affairs being exposed. It's just a cell phone, so she can just give it up. But if things are exposed, then it will be a big problem.

After the fashionable woman finished speaking, she looked at Xu Bo'an with a smug expression and said, "Since you like this phone, you can take it. We don't need it."

After hearing what the fashionable woman Honghong said, Xu Bo'an understood what she was thinking. He looked at Honghong and said, "Do you think I care about this crappy phone of yours? I wouldn't take it even if you gave it to me for free! I just asked you to make a call, and you're making all sorts of excuses. You'd rather not have the phone than make this call. Well then, don't blame me for being impolite."

Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, the fashionable young woman, Honghong, scoffed and said, "Heh, you're too kind? These days, all cell phones have passwords. You don't even know the password. Let's see how you can be 'too kind'?"

Xu Bo'an ignored the fashionable woman's words and walked directly in front of her. He turned on his phone, pressed her flushed face against the screen, and the phone unlocked instantly.

When the fashionable young woman, Honghong, saw that her phone was unlocked, her face turned deathly pale. This was terrible. If she dialed back the number she had just called, her intentions toward Ma Hongyu would be completely exposed, and all her hard work over the years would be in vain. Not only that, but there would be even more serious consequences.

In the emergency, she quickly racked her brains and realized that she had to leave as fast as possible. She said to Ma Hongyu, "You've disappointed me so much. Not only did you not protect me in front of me, but you also let someone bully me like this. You're not a man. Let's break up!"

After saying that, she pretended to be very angry and turned to leave.

Xu Bo'an was not about to let her leave so easily. He grabbed the fashionable woman and dialed the number of the first contact in her phone's call log.

A moment later, a man's voice came from the other end of the line: "Honghong, my dear little darling, how is it? You called me because that silly boy Ma Hongyu has succeeded? Have you gotten the money from him yet?"

When the fashionable woman first angrily told Ma Hongyu that she wanted to break up and turned to leave, Ma Hongyu felt a little sad. But when he heard a man's voice coming from Honghong's phone and heard her say those words, Ma Hongyu's heart shattered instantly.

To make Ma Hongyu more certain that what he heard was true, Xu Bo'an held the fashionable woman's phone in front of Ma Hongyu so that he could see it more clearly.

After the person on the other end of the phone could no longer hear Honghong's voice, they continued, "Honghong, why aren't you saying anything? Did you succeed or not?"

Xu Bo'an confirmed that Ma Hongyu had clearly seen the caller ID and heard what the other person was saying. Then Xu Bo'an said to Ma Hongyu, "See? Now you believe what I said is true, right? You were manipulated by this woman, yet you're here harming Ye Xingning. Are you even a man?"

Ma Hongyu just saw on the phone that the person he was talking to was Xiao Li, the same person Hong Hong had told him about who she wanted to talk to about her best friend's private matters. Ma Hongyu finally understood that the Xiao Li marked on Hong Hong's phone was not a best friend at all, but a man, and someone who was working with Hong Hong to deceive him.

Now Ma Hongyu finally understood completely that all the kindness Honghong had shown him over the years was fake; her real purpose was simply to swindle him out of his money!

Ma Hongyu was not only cheated on by this woman Honghong, but he was also completely fooled by her. How could he accept such a cruel fact? His eyes shot like sharp arrows at the fashionable woman named Honghong, and then he grabbed Honghong's collar and said to her word by word, "You dare to mess with me?"

Upon hearing Ma Hongyu's voice, the person on the other end of the phone knew that their scheme had been exposed, and quickly hung up.

Seeing that her scheme had been exposed, the fashionable woman named Honghong stopped pretending and looked at Ma Hongyu with a contemptuous tone, saying, "So what if I tricked you? Who gave me the opportunity?"

Hearing Honghong say those words shattered Ma Hongyu's last glimmer of hope. He said to the fashionable woman named Honghong, "You were so good to me, I thought you really loved me. I never expected you to do something like this! You've disappointed me so much!"

The fashionable woman named Honghong said, "Heh, love you? Look at you, a good-for-nothing who only knows how to lie to his wife. How could I be blind enough to love you? I think you're overthinking it. I'm only nice to you for show. Tell me, what woman can accept someone like you who only knows how to have a good time outside and act tough in front of women!"

Seeing that Honghong, who had once been so gentle and obedient to him, had suddenly become so cold towards him, Ma Hongyu was devastated. He realized that everything before had just been a false illusion! (End of Chapter)
