CHAPTER 532: CHAPTER 297: THE CLOWN TURNS OUT TO BE MYSELF

Yesterday, after receiving Chen Feng’s hotel room records from Yuan Dawei, she struggled internally for some time. Ultimately, she couldn’t resist and went to the bathroom alone while her husband Kong Tianlu was asleep. There, she followed Yuan Dawei’s example online and found a service provider that checks hotel room records, and provided them with Kong Tianlu’s name and ID number.

Since it was almost dawn, Tang Yue didn’t rush and said she could check and send it to her the next day.

The next night, she had almost forgotten about it, but now the information was directly sent to her.

She really checked her husband’s records on impulse last night, just when Yuan Dawei happened to find records of Chen Feng’s affair before his divorce.

Before Shen Lin and Chen Feng divorced, none of those who knew both of them would have dreamt that Chen Feng would have an affair, after all, Chen Feng was always seen as upright and one of those steady men who followed the rules.

Moreover, Chen Feng’s work was unsatisfactory at the time, and he had no money, yet he managed to hook up with a woman and booked a room. It’s almost unbelievable when spoken.

But the fact is like this, the hotel room records checked by Yuan Dawei couldn’t be faked.

Back then, Kong Tianlu and Chen Feng got along quite well; they both belonged to the kind of people who followed the rules, and both couples seemed to be very loving.

Yet Chen Feng cheated. So would Kong Tianlu have betrayed her too?

With Chen Feng as a live example of a jerk, it was natural for Tang Yue to extend these thoughts to her own husband.

Once someone starts doubting another person deep down, they can’t let go until they get the final answer.

Therefore, after some internal conflict last night, she couldn’t resist checking her husband.

She opened the document on her phone, and the hotel records for the last five years were all there. She didn’t really want to look, and she even felt a bit terrified, worried about what to do if her husband really was unfaithful to her.

But curiosity and suspicion ultimately prevailed, and she couldn’t resist checking line by line.

Five years ago, they both had just entered university, and during their freshman and sophomore years, they stayed in dorms as the school didn’t allow students to live outside. It was during their junior year that they started renting and living together outside the campus.

Scrolling down, it was obvious these were records of Kong Tianlu and her, and Tang Yue’s tense feelings finally began to relax slowly. She had always been willing to trust her husband.

As for why she checked anyway, it purely happened by chance, she was just curious.

At least that’s what Tang Yue thought. She didn’t feel like she was doubting her husband.

Five years ago, there were dozens of hotel records for him and her, it was the same four years ago, but three years ago, because they started living together, the records were significantly fewer, only a dozen, which was when they traveled outside.

Two years ago, there were also a dozen, but soon she found something unusual. Because in two of the records, only Kong Tianlu’s information was displayed.

Moreover, the records showed that Kong Tianlu booked hourly rooms, both times in a hotel named Manbinpeng, in the North District, about a dozen kilometers from where they lived.

Tang Yue never went to this hotel with him, in her impression, she wouldn’t agree to stay in a tackily named hotel like that. The record only had his information too.

Why did he twice book such a hotel room alone, and an hourly one too, for two hours?

The more Tang Yue thought, the more it seemed wrong, and the flame of suspicion in her heart began to rise gradually and was about to become a wildfire.

At that time, they were about to graduate, had not started working formally, and he went alone to a place more than a dozen kilometers from their apartment to book a room, an hourly one at that; it really seemed suspicious.

Though no other person’s information appeared with his, such low-end hotels often have poor management, casual entries, and it’s routine to register only one person’s information for two people checking in.

Tang Yue immediately wanted to confront Kong Tianlu, but since they were at work, it was definitely not something to discuss at the workplace.

Tang Yue had to hold back, but her heart was already burning with rage.

Continuing to read, there were more than thirty records from a year ago, when their marriage had officially been set, but the wedding house hadn’t been renovated. They had already returned the rented apartment and each returned home, so occasionally booking a room was normal.

Line by line she read, and the annoying record and hotel name appeared once again, still that Manbinpeng Hotel.

And what made her furious was seeing the record she least wanted to see—this record was dated May 5th of last year; she distinctly remembered that day she had gone out with some high school female classmates, with no boys involved.

So, Kong Tianlu wasn’t with her that day, and she returned home past nine o’clock at night, where he was already at home. Despite her coming home late, he wasn’t mad at all. He had even cooked her favorite dishes, keeping them hot in the pot, waiting for her to eat and massaging her shoulders.

He was extremely gentle with her that day, which always made her feel happy when she recalled it.

But seeing this room record, she understood completely. He must’ve been kind and gentle to her out of guilt and a compensating mindset.

Besides Kong Tianlu’s name, the record also contained the name of a woman named Xia Xiaozhen, which made it especially glaring.

She tried hard to recall, but had no impression of this woman’s name, she must be someone unfamiliar to her.

Just this point made her feel extremely strange, while even more certain of the inference she didn’t want.

They had been high school classmates for three years, university classmates for four; their friends and family were mostly acquainted with each other.

Yet she didn’t know this Xia Xiaozhen.

What could Kong Tianlu be doing, booked a room with this woman, not a colleague or relative, what good could it be?

Right then, her face flushed red, like a bull angrily snorting.

Quickly looking further down, last year there were six more records of Kong Tianlu booking a room at Manbinpeng alone. Compared to the previous year, it clearly increased.

And this year, just a few days before May Day, there were already five records of him going to Manbinpeng Hotel.

Even though each record showed him registered alone, with that previous record involving Xia Xiaozhen, anyone with a brain could tell he wasn’t alone.

Otherwise, would you say he deliberately went there solely to book a room far away just to watch TV or sleep alone?

"Well, good for you, Kong Tianlu!"

Tang Yue got angrier as she thought, her rage boiling fiercely, and she couldn’t help but slam the desk hard as she stood up abruptly.

Ignoring the surprised looks from colleagues in the office, she stormed out.

Kong Tianlu was in the Human Resources department, his work was quite relaxed, mainly managing personnel files, sending and receiving documents, office work on the computer, without the need for 996, without sun and rain, with dual weekends off every week.

Most of the time, he spent goofing off on that office computer, occasionally checking stock market trends, trading stocks, or randomly browsing the web, reading news, and visiting forums.
