Zhuo Qianyun was silent and ignored Mr. Yu. She did not want to entertain the crowd in the room, but Mr. Yu thought Zhuo Qianyun had tacitly admitted to what he said.Yan Qiongying's eyes glimmered when she heard Mr. Yu say ‘a woman who had been to prison.’She knew that aside from having to conceive a son, the fact that she had been to prison was a big problem if a homewrecker like her wanted an official title. Fortunately, Wu Huairen's wife had only given birth to a daughter. If she could conceive a son and help Wu Huairen get in touch with Ye Wenming, the possibility of her getting a title would be greater!At the thought of this, she pretended to look like she was doing this for Zhuo Qianyun's own good and whispered, "Qianyun, I'm sorry. I just wanted to treat you to a meal. I didn't expect things to turn out like this. But Huairen's friends are all rich. With our situation, the more we can get, the better. It'll help to secure our future!""Really?" Zhuo Qianyun asked indiff
Ye Wenming looked at him coldly.Wu Huairen only felt a chill in his body and hurriedly said, "Well... We happened to catch Miss Zhuo dining here today, so we thought we could dine together. Knowing that Miss Zhuo is your friend, we thought we could have a meal together."Yan Qiongying also said quickly, "Mr. Ye, I'm Zhuo Qianyun's friend. I helped Qianyun out a lot in the past. I was reunited with Qianyun by chance, so I invited her to a meal together. I wanted the gathering to be livelier, so I asked her to invite you over. I didn't expect you to really come. Come, come. Have a seat, Mr. Ye."Yan Qiongying said as she pulled out the chair next to Zhuo Qianyun.Ye Wenming did not sit down and just said, "Who was the one who said they could make Qianyun drink and I wouldn’t say a word? I didn't hear very well from outside. I wonder if I missed out on anything else besides this."Mr. Yu looked embarrassed. He immediately got up and said with a smile, "It's a misunderstanding. It's
'Treasure? Gosh, what am I thinking?' Yan Qiongying sneered to herself.If Ye Wenming cared about Zhuo Qianyun, he would not have let Zhuo Qianyun spend her life in a small store, especially when she was pregnant now!After some time, Mr. Yu finally finished the bottle of wine. Ye Wenming turned to look at Zhuo Qianyun. "Let me send you home.""Okay," replied Zhuo Qianyun. She knew Ye Wenming did that to intimidate others and hint at them to stop having funny ideas with her.Looking at Mr. Yu’s miserable state, she had no sympathy for him. After all, Mr. Yu would probably have hurt her if she had not called Ye Wenming.Besides, the way Mr. Yu looked right now could serve as a warning to Yan Qiongying as well.Although Yan Qiongying had helped her out in the past, she did not like being used like that. Yan Qiongying's actions today had made Zhuo Qianyun upset.Just as Zhuo Qianyun and Ye Wenming were about to leave, the unkempt Mr. Yu rushed toward Zhuo Qianyun in anger. In Mr. Y
"Your hand..." Zhuo Qianyun's eyes fell on Ye Wenming's right hand, which was bandaged. When he entered the private room, there were no traces of blood. His bandages were white, and she could see some blood oozing faintly. He followed her gaze and looked down at his hand. He said, "It's nothing. I guess the wound tore open," he spoke nonchalantly as if it was only a minor issue.Zhuo Qianyun recalled how Mr. Yu had rushed at her in the private room and how Ye Wenming knocked him down to the ground.That was probably how his wound tore.The bloodstain on his bandages was getting darker, and it was gradually expanding.Zhuo Qianyun suddenly said to Ye Wenming, "Get in.""What?" He froze."Get in the car. I'll accompany you to the hospital first. You need a doctor to tend to the wound on your hand again," she said.Seeing that he was still standing blankly where he was, she took his wrist, took him to the car parked in front of them, and said to the driver, "Go to the hospital!"
Even so, when he found out about the beatings and humiliations she received in prison, it even terrified a man like him. He had no idea how she survived it all while pregnant."I'm sorry. I'm sorry..." muttered Ye Wenming, his eyes heavy with regret.Zhuo Qianyun paused before saying indifferently, "I don't want to discuss who's right and who's wrong in whatever's between us. I just hope we can end all our grudges and return to our peaceful lives."Ye Wenming could not help smiling wryly. 'Yes, return to our peaceful lives. It's what she wants the most, right? And I owe it to her!'"Okay. If you want peace, then I’ll give you peace. I’ll return to L City after you give birth to the baby. I'll hand over the branch company in Shen City to someone else, so you don't have to worry that I’ll affect your normal life," said Ye Wenming.Zhuo Qianyun looked somewhat blankly at Ye Wenming. What he said was what she wanted to hear. He would leave Shen City after the baby was born. Then, she
"Same as her," Ye Wenming said to the lady boss, who was also the cashier."Alright," the lady boss answered.The two walked over to a small dining table. Zhuo Qianyun looked at Ye Wenming's hand and said, "Keep an eye on your hand these days. Don't let your small injury turn into a big one like what the doctor said.""I will," he answered like an obedient child.Two bowls of noodles with pork chops soon arrived. Zhuo Qianyun lowered her head to eat while Ye Wenming looked at the woman in front of him. He recalled back to the time when they had noodles together. She had smiled and said, "Wenming, why don't I learn how to make noodles? That way, I can make you a bowl of longevity noodles on your birthday. You can live to an old age in peace." "Do you believe that?" he asked with a chuckle."I would rather believe it!" she said."You don't have to go out of your way to do it. Just buy some longevity noodles in the supermarket and boil them.""But homemade noodles are more sincer
However, his voice was so calm! It was as if he was just calmly telling her about his decision!She stared blankly into his eyes for a moment. She only felt as if she were caught in an invisible net and was unable to move. She could not even look away.'Stop looking! Don't look at him anymore!'She desperately told herself. Sometime later, she suddenly turned her head away and opened the car door. She got on it as though she was fleeing!The car pulled away slowly after the door closed.Ye Wenming watched the car fade out of sight and smiled bitterly.Maybe this was the best ending for him and Qianyun.Taking out his phone, he ordered the person on the other end of the line, "Look into the people who dined with Qianyun in the private room today."Since those people tried to use her, they would have to suffer the consequences!...Yan Qiongying came to the store early in the morning and repeatedly apologized to Zhuo Qianyun."Qianyun, I'm sorry. I had no idea things would end
"Nothing to do with you? You're pregnant with his baby, yet you say you have nothing to do with him? It's alright if you don't want to help, but why would you lie?" Yan Qiongying snapped.Just then, another car pulled up to the store’s entrance. Ling Yiran got out.When Yan Qiongying saw that someone was here, she frowned and said, "Forget it. I'll come and see you again when I'm free." Then, she left in a hurry.Ling Yiran walked past Yan Qiongying and walked up to Zhuo Qianyun. "Who is that person? A friend?"Zhuo Qianyun said with a faint smile, "We're not really friends. She's a former inmate. She was kind to me when I was in prison. I met her by chance a few days ago, but I found that she only wanted to use me to get to know Ye Wenming for business. She didn’t really want to catch up with me.”Ling Yiran sighed. "People are complicated. Sometimes, you'll meet someone okay, but other times, you’ll find that they’re not that great.""Yeah, people are complicated. Besides, peop
