Chapter 38
My Sister-in-Law's Profession
In the following days, Tang Xiaofu stopped working overtime and stayed with me, showing me great care and concern.
But sometimes she would dodge the phone when answering it, and even not answer it in front of me.
Then I remembered that I went to her company twice and she wasn't there either time. I felt that something was amiss, and that she was definitely hiding something from me.
Four or five days later, I was discharged from the hospital. After being discharged, I returned to my previous state. She went back to work, and I went back to work too.
I still feel a lot of longing and attachment to her, but the doubt in my mind keeps lingering.
So one day, I made a decision that defied the odds.
I decided to go to her place and secretly install a miniature camera.
I know it's very unethical to do this.
But somehow, I did it anyway.
I bought a miniature camera online and went to her place while she was at work during the day.
They secretly installed it in the spot where shoe boxes are kept on the side of her bedroom cabinet.
I installed a camera; I feel like I'm not a good person.
How could I not trust her?
When men and women are in love, isn't mutual trust the most important thing?
She took such good care of me when I was hospitalized, how could I doubt her?
I had originally gone downstairs, but after much hesitation, I went back and removed the miniature camera.
As I sat on the edge of her bed with that miniature camera in my hand, I couldn't quite describe the feeling I had.
Tang Xiaofu isn't particularly pretty, and her figure isn't perfect, but I love her gentle and tender nature.
For her sake, I am willing to break off that relationship with Lin Moli.
I don't want to know about Kang Xiaofu's past, after all, everyone has a past, but I really want a sincere relationship.
I want to grow old with her.
But the more this is the case, the more the doubts in my heart linger.
It makes it impossible for me to calm down.
I sat on the edge of her bed for more than half an hour, and finally gritted my teeth and put the camera back in the same place.
After returning to the company, I kept checking my phone's camera to see if it had captured anything while I was working.
There was nothing on the first day.
The next evening, I saw Tang Xiaofu going in and out of the bedroom alone, playing on her phone and chatting with me.
The same thing happened on the third night.
On the fourth and fifth days, there was no one else besides her.
Seeing this, I felt a pang of guilt.
How could a girl like that possibly cheat on me with other men?
I felt I was being petty, so I decided that when I went to see her again, I would secretly take the camera away when she wasn't looking.
But things didn't turn out as perfectly as I'd imagined.
We agreed to go to the beach together at 10 a.m. on Sunday morning.
Around 8 o'clock, I opened my eyes, stretched, sat up, took out my phone, and wanted to send Tang Xiaofu a WeChat message to say good morning.
But I accidentally clicked on the camera's video.
The moment I clicked on the video, my brain went blank.
Last night I video chatted with Tang Xiaofu until very late, but when I turned on my camera this morning, I was completely stunned.
The scene was extremely disturbing.
Tang Xiaofu lost her innocent image and became completely infatuated with that old man.
It was even unbearable to look at.
I never expected that Tang Xiaofu, who is usually so gentle and soft-spoken, would be so unrestrained at this moment.
Her screams vibrated my eardrums.
I feel heartbroken.
This isn't a movie, it's real. As I was watching, I suddenly slammed my phone to the ground.
After hesitating for a moment, I climbed off the bed naked and picked up the phone again.
I suppressed my anger and called Tang Xiaofu. I wanted to confront her face to face and ask her what she was doing.
But she didn't answer the phone at all.
I turned the camera back on and saw the two people behaving in an unsightly manner.
Moreover, Tang Xiaofu was very proactive, and her flirtatious manner made me afraid to look directly at her.
Their conversation gave me a complete understanding of Tang Xiaofu.
Seeing this, I felt incredibly heartbroken, and suddenly my face felt itchy.
I reached out and touched it; it was wet—from tears.
I tossed my phone aside, went into the bathroom alone, and took a long, thorough shower.
I wasn't even dressed, I was sitting on the bed with my bare bottom exposed, staring blankly at my phone.
How could this happen? Why is Tang Xiaofu acting like this?
If this video had been taken before we met, I would have forgiven her too.
After all, no one can expect the other person to be as pure as a glass of plain water before they met you.
No one can do that.
But since we love each other, as long as it's pure, it should be sincere, and it should be unique.
At that moment, I made up my mind: this girl was not my woman; she had deceived me; she was not good enough for me.
Just as I was sitting there lost in thought, Tang Xiaofu called.
I didn't answer. I didn't want to hear her voice, and I didn't want to hear her explanation.
She kept calling me, and after I hung up, I deleted her phone number and WeChat account.
I admit I'm not a good man, but at least I was sincere after I met her.
I cannot allow a woman who has entered my heart to cheat on me with other men while pretending to be innocent in front of me.
I lay on the bed, sprawled out, feeling bitter inside, and tears streamed down my face.
Lin Moli was my first woman, but Tang Xiaofu was the first woman I truly loved.
It's a pity that all of this came and went so quickly; I didn't even have time to savor it before it ended in this way.
I regret it; maybe I shouldn't have installed that camera.
If I couldn't see those images, we would still be very affectionate; she would treat me well, and I would treat her well too.
However, I saw it.
I lay there trying to sleep, but I couldn't. My brain was throbbing with a tearing pain.
Just as I was lying there in pain and sorrow, there was a loud knocking on the door.
I opened the door and saw Tang Xiaofu standing in the doorway.
"Honey, why aren't you answering my calls? What's wrong?"
Tang Xiaofu wore a pink dress and her makeup was quite exquisite.
If it were before, I would definitely hug her and kiss her a few times, and then say some tender words.
But now when I see her, I think she's filthy and disgusting.
"Xiaofu, we're not a good match. Let's save some face for each other and go back."
I really want to tell you about the camera, but I don't have the courage.
Tang Xiaofu's eyes instantly reddened, and she grabbed my arm tightly.
"What's wrong? Weren't you getting along perfectly well? Why do you want to break up?"
The suppressed fire in my heart suddenly flared up, and I abruptly pushed her away.
"Get lost! Don't you know why we broke up? You kept saying you loved me, but don't you know what you did behind my back?"
