At twenty-one years old, Jiang Wanning ...
Jiang Wanning shook hands with Bai Bai, looking on with curiosity: "A Yuan, whose dog is this? It's so smart."
"It belongs to Lu Heng. But I helped him train."
Six years ago, this silly dog was just a little puppy, chubby and with short legs. It couldn't get down the steps and would tumble down.
"Huh, why didn't I see it yesterday?"
“My mom is allergic to dog hair, so I didn’t bring her to Tianmu yesterday. Do you like dogs?” Fu Chenyuan looked intently at Jiang Wanning.
Jiang Wanning knew exactly what Fu Chenyuan was thinking.
"Do you want me to get one? No, I don't. I don't keep dogs."
She was afraid she wouldn't have the patience.
Once you adopt a pet, you are responsible for it for its entire life.
She won't start raising them until she's fully prepared.
But look, it's okay to tease other people's pets.
"How about I raise you? How about I take care of you? You just need to play and be happy like this."
I have to say, it's quite tempting.
Jiang Wanning watched Fu Chenyuan carefully taking care of Bai Bai and interacting with Bai Bai. She imagined that if she really raised a puppy in the future, Fu Chenyuan would definitely take good care of it too.
He is extremely patient, including bathing, drying, and blow-drying the dog's fur.
Thinking of this scene, Jiang Wanning suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart, a little uncomfortable, as if something that belonged to her had been taken away by someone else.
Without thinking, Jiang Wanning blurted out, "No. I don't want you to take care of other dogs."
Fu Chenyuan looked at her in surprise, then seemed to realize something.
He tossed the frisbee to Bai Bai, who caught it in his mouth.
Fu Chenyuan bent down and patted Bai Bai's head: "Bai Bai, go back to your master and ask him to play with you. I'm not playing with you anymore. Be good."
Bai Bai nodded obediently, wagged its tail, and then turned and ran away.
Jiang Wanning subconsciously touched her head.
Just a moment ago, the way Fu Chenyuan patted the dog's head gave her a sense of familiarity.
What is it?
He usually pats her head like this!
Fu Chenyuan washed his hands at the tap, then came over to pat Jiang Wanning's head, but Jiang Wanning dodged him.
“I’m not a dog.” Her voice was a little muffled.
Fu Chenyuan's smile deepened, and he even started laughing out loud. Then, without suppressing his laughter, he laughed even louder.
Jiang Wanning was a little embarrassed by the laughter: "What are you laughing at?"
Fu Chenyuan lowered his head and kissed Jiang Wanning's lips: "I'm laughing at you, wife, are you jealous?"
Jiang Wanning suddenly realized.
When Fu Chenyuan said he would take care of the puppy, she felt a strange, uncomfortable feeling welled up inside her; it turned out that this was called jealousy.
"Yes, I am jealous. The thought of buying a puppy means you'll definitely spend a lot of time taking care of it and taking up our time walking it. The more time you spend on the dog, the less time you'll have with me."
Human energy and time are limited. Spending too much time on one thing means less time available for other things.
Fu Chenyuan embraced Jiang Wanning.
With a sweep of his hand, Jiang Wanning pressed herself against him, and the two were instantly sealed together.
“I understand. I thought you liked pets, which is why I was planning to get one. Since you don't want anything else taking up my time, of course I won't get one. Wanwan, I'm glad you can express your true feelings. From now on, if there's anything you don't like or are unhappy about, just tell me, okay? Hmm? I can also tell that Teacher Meng really likes Auntie, and Auntie might not be heartless towards him either. I just don't know how they ended up like this; there must be some misunderstanding.”
Jiang Wanning didn't expect Fu Chenyuan to learn so quickly.
She used to tell Fu Chenyuan to speak his mind, but unexpectedly, Fu Chenyuan learned it very quickly and even taught her instead.
She couldn't help but smile knowingly and took the initiative to kiss Fu Chenyuan.
Fu Chenyuan pointed to his Adam's apple: "Do you think I should put a band-aid on today?"
There are her teeth marks on it, the marks are still very clear.
Jiang Wanning felt that Fu Chenyuan must have done it on purpose.
Isn't putting on a band-aid just making things worse, like he's trying to draw everyone's attention?
The thought of such a scene gave Jiang Wanning a headache.
She lowered her head and bit Fu Chenyuan's shoulder directly through his clothes.
"Next time I'll put it somewhere, and bite here."
That way, others won't be able to see it.
The two laughed and joked around for a while, then returned to their room.
Jiang Wanning received a message on her phone from Li Yixuan.
Fu Chenyuan glanced at the words "Brother Yixuan" and then casually looked away.
Jiang Wanning told him, "Yixuan said that Auntie asked him to investigate something. For the past ten years, someone has been sending her emails containing photos of a boy growing up, each one different every year. Auntie said that the woman claims to be Teacher Meng's lover, and that the child is from their relationship. The woman also said that if Auntie reveals this and the other woman finds out, she will ruin Teacher Meng's reputation. What's going on? I need to call Auntie."
Jiang Wanning dialed Xu Ying's number.
At this moment, Xu Ying was sitting in the courtyard, her face pale and her eyes bloodshot. The canvas in front of her had been blank all night.
Just like her heart now.
Her heart was also blank.
Xu Ying didn't respond when the phone rang.
It wasn't until Jiang Wanning redialed and dialed a second time that Xu Ying finally came to her senses.
She answered the call, her voice hoarse: "Hello..."
"Auntie, it's me. I've come to find you. Where are you? I'm Wan Ning."
"Ah, it's Xiao Ning." After Xu Ying finished speaking, it was as if she had suffered a great injustice, and suddenly all her emotions seemed to have found an outlet.
She suddenly started crying on the phone.
Jiang Wanning looked at Fu Chenyuan: "A-Yuan, I need to go to my aunt's place right now."
"I'll go with you."
"No need, just have the driver take me. You go to the company. I won't hesitate to ask for your help if I need it."
Jiang Wanning reached out and hugged Fu Chenyuan before hurrying towards Xu Ying.
Xu Ying cried with utter despair, like a wounded beast.
Jiang Wanning felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this voice.
What exactly went wrong?
They were clearly two lovers, yet they were separated for ten years.
Now, a third party and an illegitimate child have also appeared?
By the time Jiang Wanning arrived, Xu Ying was already asleep.
Jiang Wanning entered the room after pressing the password, while Xu Ying's eyes were red and swollen.
