"Tell me what happened? Did someone bully you?" Wen Qingye frowned. Everyone knew that he was about to succeed in a project that would give him a qualitative leap.

Even those who didn't get along with him before and looked down on him now had to bow their heads and say, "When you make a lot of money in the future, Mr. Wen, don't forget to help him out."

Lu Niannian seemed to have made up her mind, and raised her head to look directly at him: "They all say that I am a country bumpkin, and that I have embarrassed you. It is true that my family is not as well-off as you rich kids, but I am not that bad either. Why do they say that?"

"Who said that?" Wen Qingye's anger grew even stronger. Now everyone knows that he and Xi Wange are divorced, and the person next to him is Lu Niannian. How dare she say such things to him? Isn't this a blatant slap in the face?

Lu Niannian felt even more aggrieved: "Everyone says that, have I embarrassed you? I'd better not come to such high-class places in the future, you can have your secretary come with you."

"What are you saying? You'll be my wife in the future, so you should have come with me."

Wen Qingye said this, and he did exactly that. He took Lu Niannian's hand and introduced her to the people here, thinking that perhaps if they got to know her, Lu Niannian wouldn't be talked about anymore.

I just didn't expect...

…

Inside the restroom:

"Hey, did you guys see that today? The woman that Mr. Wen brought is not only plain-looking, but she also doesn't know the most basic etiquette. She's nothing compared to his ex-wife."

"Don't say that. Comparing her to Miss Xi is an insult to Miss Xi."

Another person said, "You guys didn't see it. When she showed the screen, her expression changed completely. When she heard the price, her eyes widened. She looked like she'd never seen anything like it before...tsk tsk tsk..."

"I don't know what President Wen was thinking. He picked up a sesame seed but lost a watermelon."

"Perhaps people think sesame seeds are too expensive."

"Is there anyone more valuable than the eldest daughter of the Xi family? They're just blind. If I were the patriarch of the Wen family, I'd be furious."

Their conversation kept Lu Niannian, who was in the restroom, from leaving for a long time. She only came out of the restroom after they had all left.

As she walked out the door, she saw Wen Qingye again, his expression extremely complicated. Lu Niannian pretended nothing had happened, greeted him warmly, and then told him what she had overheard in the restroom.

However, Wen Qingye didn't seem to care much, and seemed to be lost in thought as if he hadn't heard her at all.

In fact, Wen Qingye remembered the conversation she had overheard at the toilet entrance.

Yes, it was Lu Niannian's first time in such a place, and she didn't know any friends or classmates. Faced with this situation, he could only accompany her to the restroom, but he didn't expect to hear those gossips.

However, every word they said seemed to pierce his heart, and for some reason, all the good things about Wan Ge came to mind again.

Lu Niannian realized that the other person wasn't listening to her, and felt a little angry, but she still didn't show it. She sighed helplessly and said, "If you didn't hear me, then forget it."

At this moment, Wen Qingye quickly shook his head and said, "No, I just remembered something."
