Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Catching Adultery Personally



Actually, when Manager Fang saw Jiang Li, he was somewhat surprised.

Because she was really too beautiful, and very young, completely different from those rich wives who had come to catch cheaters in the past.

How could her husband bear to neglect such a beautiful wife at home to have an affair?

It was simply a waste of God's gifts!

Despite his amazement, Manager Fang still uttered some noncommittal words.

This was all within Jiang Li's expectations, as she leisurely picked up the coffee delivered by the waiter and sipped it slowly.

The slight bow of her head was especially graceful, complementing her well-balanced features, which were particularly pleasing to the eye.

After setting down the cup, she finally lifted her gaze with a smile and met Manager Fang's eyes. "Manager Fang, you've been in this line of work for over a decade now, haven't you? Business must have been good recently."

Manager Fang was completely caught off guard by the sudden change of topic, and without doubting how she knew about his more than a decade in the business, he instinctively nodded his head.

However, what shocked him even more was what she said next—

"Manager Fang's career fortunes are not bad. You might have been plotted against and suffered at the hands of others in the early years, but luckily you met a noble person later on and took advantage of the momentum to open this hotel. However—"

Manager Fang was utterly stunned.

How did she know about his past?!

Could she have already investigated his past before coming?!

But that shouldn't be possible; he had been working abroad before, and very few people knew of his experiences. Even if this lady was extremely capable, it was unlikely that she could reach so far.

Seeing his astonished expression, Jiang Li smiled and placed her hands on her knees.

"My apologies, Manager Fang, I was abrupt. I once followed a master and learned some 'Mystical Skill,' which happens to allow me to deduce certain things about a person's life path."

Hearing this, Manager Fang breathed a sigh of relief but became even more puzzled.

"I must admit, Madam, I do believe in these kinds of things, but doesn't divination usually require knowing someone's 'birthdate'? Could it be..."

Jiang Li explained: "Having the detailed 'Four Pillars of Destiny' would certainly be better, but a person's life path can also be reflected in their facial features."

Realization dawned on Manager Fang; she had been observing his face all this time without speaking.

Though this didn't eliminate the possibility that she might have investigated him before, for some reason, Manager Fang felt the lady before him wasn't that sort of person.

Because he saw in her eyes a sense of honesty and integrity.

And if she really had investigated him, she could have used that information as leverage rather than having a polite conversation with him here.

So, he asked with renewed curiosity, "May I ask what you meant by 'however' just now?"

Jiang Li smiled faintly, "However, I see that your Yintang is darkened, which suggests you've recently encountered some distressing matter. Your destiny carries the 'Lonely Star,' indicating marital troubles, so I imagine this distress must be related to your wife."

Manager Fang's suspicions were completely dispelled upon hearing her words.

He had been arguing with his wife every other day recently, and since it was an embarrassing family matter, he had not publicized it to anyone. Even if this lady was very resourceful, she would not have been able to find out about it.

But there was more.

Jiang Li stroked her skirt and rose from the sofa, walking over to him and whispering in his ear:

"If you go home now, you might just catch your wife red-handed, after all, without evidence, suspicions of infidelity are as good as baseless."

Manager Fang was even more astonished and no longer dared to underestimate this young lady.

Recently, he did suspect that his wife was cheating on him, but due to the lack of evidence, it was difficult to lay everything out. Since this young woman had such astonishing abilities, why not take a gamble and go back home?

But before he could make an excuse to leave, the other party grabbed him again, a mysterious smile curling at their lips.

"Manager Fang, haven't you forgotten something?"

"Since you also believe in mysticism, you must know that the process of fortune-telling is essentially an exchange of luck between two parties. I have already revealed heaven's secrets for you, and if you don't offer something to compensate, I'm afraid you might encounter some trouble in the future."

Manager Fang understood this principle.

Fortune-tellers often demanded a certain divination fee from those seeking their services. On one hand, it was for their livelihood, but more importantly, it was to offset the loss of luck incurred by their actions.

Those in business particularly valued luck; he dared not treat this as a joke.

Thus, Manager Fang sent the waiter away and stuffed his Universal Card into Jiang Li's hand, gritting his teeth as he said:

"I can only help the madam this much. Please consider the difficulties we face in doing business and try not to make too much of a scene."

Jiang Li nodded, "Of course, I am not a person lacking discretion."

"And don't worry too much, Manager Fang. You will get the outcome you want."

Manager Fang thanked her repeatedly and then hurriedly drove home.

This entire operation dumbfounded the receptionist.

Their manager had a reputation for being the most difficult person to deal with, not because he was too stern, but on the contrary, he was extremely cunning. Neither kindness nor harshness worked on him, so the wives who had come before to catch cheaters had all left without exception, defeated.

How had this girl managed to persuade their manager to hand over the room card within just ten minutes?

But this was none of her business to gossip about; after all, since Manager Fang relented, she could only honestly inform Jiang Li of the person's room number.

After thanking her, Jiang Li got on the elevator and went straight to room 1307.

She expressionlessly used the Universal Card to open the door and walked in.

There was a lot of noise inside, and ear-piercing music was playing from the TV.

But she behaved as if she saw and heard nothing, walking over to sit by the only illuminated window, and casually picking up a book from the table to read.

On the large bed, a man was kissing the woman beneath him passionately and unwilling to part.

The woman's jacket had been undone, and she was now obliviously wrapping her arms around the man's neck, moaning while coquettishly calling his name.

"Brother Yan... Brother Yan... be gentle..."

As the woman tilted back her head, preparing to rid herself of the encumbering clothes, her peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of Jiang Li sitting by the window.

Her eyes widened in shock, and the next second, she let out a piercing scream.

"Ahh—!!!"

Jiang Yan successfully lost interest due to the scream, frowned, and looked down at the woman beneath him, "What's wrong?"

Qin Xiaoxiao, her complexion pale, stretched out a trembling hand, pointing at the woman who had suddenly appeared in the room.

"There's... there's a ghost!"

Jiang Yan's frown deepened.

Where would a ghost come from in broad daylight?

However, when he got up and turned around, he too caught a glimpse of the figure by the window.

Swearing instinctively, he met eyes with the "ghost".

In just an instant, he recognized the incoming person, and in a fit of rage and embarrassment, he grabbed a pillow and threw it at her—

"Fuck! How the hell did you get in?!"
