Chapter 40 Confession



Jiang Huai brought seven or eight bodyguards with him, all of them had muscular bodies and looked very intimidating.

Wen Zhi's palms instantly broke out in cold sweat and his heart began to beat wildly.

Jiang Huai's words were too harsh to be heard. How could we tolerate this?

He looked directly at the bodyguards who surrounded him and remained calm.

Ming Yantang looked serious, but his tone was still somewhat relaxed: "Master Jiang, no matter what, you are the one who spoke harshly and seized our territory and drove us away first. Now we live in a society ruled by law. Do you know the core values? You are not afraid of being laughed at for bringing out your tricks!"

Jiang Huai frowned and shouted to the bodyguard: "What are you standing there for? Are my words no longer effective?"

The bodyguards understood and immediately separated Wen Zhi from Ming Yantang and the others. At the same time, a black car had stopped by the side: "Master Wen, please."

Wen Zhi looked at the person opposite him and tried his best to calm himself down.

Ming Yantang said sternly: "Jiang Huai, I advise you not to go too far."

Jiang Huai smiled evilly: "Too much? Are you guys too much or am I too much?"

...

...

Wen Zhi looked at him seriously: "Jiang Huai, you were the first to grab our place and use dirty words."

Jiang Huai: "What did I say? Who has evidence? Do you have evidence? Do they have evidence?"

Several friends following Jiang Huai echoed nonchalantly: "We have no evidence."

Although Jiang Huai's mouth corner was in great pain, he still looked at Wen Zhi with pride.

Bai Tingchen next to him took the opportunity to fan the flames: "Yeah, Brother Jiang, how can you let him go so easily?"

Ming Yantang quietly gave Wen Zhi a look and mouthed, "I'll call Si Mingchen."

Wen Zhi said in a voice that both of them could hear: "Si Mingchen is abroad."

Ming Yantang comforted him: "I'll call the club's owner, don't worry."

This dispute was caused by Wen Zhi. Fearing that it would implicate others, he said to Ming Yantang and Qiao Juan, "If it really doesn't work, you two should retreat first."

Ming Yantang glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Wen Zhi: "I'll call the housekeeper uncle over. There are bodyguards at home who can come over immediately."

Ming Yantang: "I have one too. Call them together and we can talk about this matter."

Originally, the three of them were just having a small gathering and didn't bring anyone with them. After all, the environment here was quite private and it was a high-end club.

Just as the two groups were in a stalemate, the club's boss Fang hurried over. After figuring out what had just happened, he smiled and said, "Master Jiang, please give me some face. Can we sit down and have a good talk about this?"

Jiang Huai was not willing to give in: "Sit down and talk?"

Boss Fang calmed him down: "We are all well-known people, and we have business dealings with each other on a regular basis. Let's resolve this peacefully and we can still be friends in the future."

Jiang Huai was so furious because he lost face in front of his brothers. He also understood Boss Fang's words. So, he said to Wen Zhi, "Okay, Master Wen, let's go in and talk."

After weighing the pros and cons, Wen Zhi and Ming Yantang nodded in agreement and secretly sent a message to the housekeeper.

Soon, everyone walked into the club's VIP lounge, and Boss Fang sent someone to apply ice to Jiang Huai.

On the round table in front of me were desserts and coffee prepared by Boss Fang. Jiang Huai crossed his legs and picked up a piece of dessert: "Tell me about the solution."

Wen Zhi noticed Bai Tingchen's disdainful look and asked in a deep voice, "Then let's sort out the right and wrong first. Young Master Jiang was domineering and spoke harshly first, and I was impulsive later. If we must be responsible, we should each take responsibility."

Jiang Huai suddenly laughed and started to act like a rogue: "Did I say anything unpleasant? Master Wen, please don't spit blood at me."

Seeing that Jiang Huai refused to admit it, Wen Zhi said, "You don't have the attitude to talk properly."

Jiang Huai slammed the table and said, "How about this, I'll show you a way out. You drink the three bottles of red wine on the table to apologize to me, and this matter will be over."

Ming Yantang looked at the wine and sneered: "Master Jiang, are you overdoing it?"

Wen Zhi had heard of the Jiang family's reputation. They had developed quite well in the past two years and were engaged in overseas trade.

But it's just good.

Jiang Huai dares to be so arrogant simply because he relies on his bodyguards.

Wen Zhi glanced outside the door: "Jiang Huai, you have bodyguards, and we have them too, we are not afraid."

Jiang Huai frowned, subconsciously looked back, and suddenly felt a little afraid.

He had heard of Si Mingchen's methods, but the two companies had cooperated and their identities were similar. Now Si Mingchen was abroad, and distant water could not put out a nearby fire.

He also heard from people in the circle that Wen Zhi and Si Mingchen's screen images were fake and their relationships were average.

So it shouldn't be a big deal if he gets tough with Wen Zhi.

Jiang Huai suddenly slammed the table and threatened Wen Zhi: "This is my only condition. If you can't do it, then wait for Si Mingchen to come back from England and apologize to me in person. I'll see how you'll explain it to him!"

It was the first time that Wen Zhi saw such an unreasonable person, and he was so angry that he laughed. He said calmly: "Si Mingchen apologized to you? Are you worthy? As for how I explained to him, have you forgotten what dirty words you said? Si Mingchen doesn't believe me, so how could he believe you?"

Jiang Huai continued to play dirty: "Dirty words? Don't spit blood at me. Otherwise, why don't you repeat what I said and help me remember it?"

Wen Zhi glared at Jiang Huai with a cold face.

He was asked to repeat those words, clearly intending to humiliate Si Mingchen once more. He glanced at his phone and saw that the butler and his men were almost there.

At this time, the doctors had finished applying ice to Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai poured himself a glass of wine and stared at Wen Zhi.

"Or you can ask your father to come over and ask him to apologize to me."

The friends around laughed and sarcastically said, "Wen Qishan? The Wen family is bankrupt. Young Master Jiang should not count on him."

The laughter became louder and louder. Jiang Huai stood up and asked the waiter to put three bottles of red wine in front of Wen Zhi. He leaned over and looked at Wen Zhi: "Choose."

Wen Zhi held the red wine bottle and said to the waiter, "Bring three bottles to Young Master Jiang as well. He will have to apologize later."

Jiang Huai's expression changed: "Are you sick?"

Wen Zhi raised his head and looked at him: "Why, Master Jiang has been in the business world for so long, but he dares to do it but not take responsibility?"

Jiang Huai: "Wen Zhi, don't be so shameless!"

Wen Zhi: "My face was not given by Master Jiang."

Jiang Huai raised his narrow and long phoenix eyes slightly: "I'm going to ask you one last time, do you want to drink or not?"

Wen Zhi: "According to the timeline, whoever finds trouble first drinks first."

In fact, Jiang Huai was angry and had no intention of doing anything to Wen Zhi, nor did he really want Wen Zhi to drink all the wine. He just wanted to save his face. After all, even if Wen Zhi has a bad relationship with Si Mingchen, he still has a status and cannot but give him face. But Wen Zhi was so stubborn in going against him that he was very angry. Although he was concerned about Si Mingchen's status, he had to swallow his anger today.

Bai Tingchen provoked from the side: "Brother Jiang, I think Wen Zhi just doesn't give you face. What is he bragging about?"

"Yeah, I heard that he and Si Mingchen were getting divorced some time ago."

Jiang Huai was stunned: "Divorce? This is interesting." He immediately called the bodyguard over: "Master Wen, please drink the wine."

Song Wei stood up at this time: "Jiang Huai, drinking three bottles of red wine is too much."

Jiang Huai said coldly: "Song Wei, do you need you to teach me how to do things?"

Song Wei looked at Jiang Huai helplessly and stopped talking.

Wen Zhi glanced at the row of bodyguards behind him and said seriously, "Divorce? Si Mingchen and I have a good relationship. I don't know who spread the rumor."

Looking at Bai Tingchen, he thought: "Didn't you see it last time?"

Bai Tingchen glared at him and said nothing more.

At this time, the butler had arrived at the club and sent a message to Wen Zhi. After Wen Zhi replied to the housekeeper, he crossed his legs and said, "Master Jiang, don't think that if you don't admit it, you didn't do it. Words spoken are like water spilled, you can't take them back. If Si Mingchen really heard these words, do you think he would just ignore them?"

Jiang Huai's expression changed instantly: "Are you threatening me?"

Wen Zhi: "I'm just stating the facts."

Jiang Huai was completely enraged by Wen Zhi's attitude and yelled at the bodyguard: "Let him drink!"

Bai Tingchen instantly became proud and even took out his cell phone to record the scene.

Has Wen Zhi come to this day?

Where is the pride you felt when you bullied him in the lounge?

He wanted to keep this video forever and show it to those who felt that Wen Zhi had someone backing him up.

Just as the few people approached Wen Zhi, the wooden door was suddenly pushed open. More than twenty bodyguards rushed in and surrounded the room quickly.

Realizing that the situation was out of control, Jiang Huai shouted, "You are a bunch of rubbish!"

Wen Zhi raised his eyebrows at Ming Yantang and the others, and was about to stand up to ridicule Jiang Huai, when he noticed that there was someone standing behind the butler.

He was stunned and trotted over: "Why are you here? Aren't you in England?"

Si Mingchen took his hand and said, "Come back early."

Although Wen Zhi was not angry with Jiang Huai, when he saw Si Mingchen, his eyes suddenly turned red and his lips pouted so high that he almost hung a soy sauce bottle on them.

Jiang Huai felt like he had eaten shit when Wen Zhi suddenly changed his attitude.

After checking Wen Zhi's condition, Si Mingchen was finally relieved. He then sat down with Wen Zhi and looked directly at Jiang Huai.

In order to be able to return home early to accompany Wen Zhi, Si Mingchen worked overtime for four days and rushed back only after finishing his work urgently.

As soon as he got off the plane, he received a call from his housekeeper, who told him that Wen Zhi had a conflict with Jiang Huai, so he rushed over as fast as he could.

He was very uneasy, worried that something might happen to Wen Zhi, and his hands were shaking until he entered the room.

Fortunately, Wen Zhi is fine.

Wen Zhi was not as strong as before. He lowered his head and leaned softly in Si Mingchen's arms, looking straight at Jiang Huai, with a small flame of revenge in his eyes.

Si Mingchen's eyes were dark: "Mr. Jiang, I know about your situation, let's talk about it."

As they were talking, a dozen bodyguards came in from outside.

Jiang Huai was intimidated by Si Mingchen's momentum, and his words were obviously lacking in confidence: "Boss Si, now that you understand, let's see how to deal with this matter."

Si Mingchen asked back, tapping the table lightly with his fingertips: "How does Jiang Shao want to deal with this?"

Jiang Huai swallowed his saliva and was a little reluctant when facing his boss Mingchen's sharp eyes.

He hadn't wanted to fall out in the first place, he just wanted to take advantage of Si Mingchen's absence to save face.

Why did Si Mingchen suddenly come back?

"We were both a little impulsive just now, otherwise... let's just forget about it."

Si Mingchen slowly took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on: "So what does this wine mean?"

Jiang Huai subconsciously looked at his friends: "I was too angry just now, and wanted to drink with Wen Zhi to solve it peacefully."

Si Mingchen looked at Wen Zhi, but before he could say anything, Wen Zhi instantly understood what he meant and repeated to Si Mingchen in a low voice what Jiang Huai had said.

When Si Mingchen looked at Jiang Huai again, his voice was cold: "What did Mr. Jiang mean by what he said about me?"

Jiang Huai felt guilty: "What did I say?"

Si Mingchen's expression became worse and worse, and he said coldly: "I'll give you ten minutes to think about what to say."

Jiang Huai's confidence was growing weaker and weaker: "I didn't say anything."

"Very good." Si Mingchen raised his hand and looked at his watch, his eyes sweeping over Jiang Huai's friends, "I heard that your Jiang family had financial problems some time ago, and I don't know how the investigation is going. I can do a good deed and help everyone find out the truth as soon as possible."

Jiang Huai was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Si Mingchen would know about this: "You!"

"Master Jiang knows what he has done over the years. Do you really think no one knows? As for your friends, it seems that you are planning to stand on the same side."

The people at the same table looked at each other, and the arrogance they had just shown disappeared instantly.

Jiang Huai was getting more and more uneasy, but relying on his family's status, he made a final struggle: "Mr. Si, don't be so bluffing. Do you have any evidence for those things?"

Si Mingchen looked at him coldly: "Xiao Wen."

Assistant Wente nodded: "Boss Si."

Simingchen looked down at Jiang Huai and said, "Mr. Jiang is ignorant. Let the Jiang family be a demonstration."

Assistant Wen: "No problem."

Jiang Huai was completely panicked. Even Bai Tingchen stopped sticking with him and tried to stay as far away from him as possible.

It seems that Si Mingchen is not putting on a show. If this really happened, his father would be very angry and might even kick him out of the house.

Jiang Huai immediately admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, Mr. Si, I said those words because I was completely overwhelmed by anger. I was indeed rude. I'm sorry."

Si Mingchen looked at him with contempt: "Is this your solution? You let Wen Zhi and his friends get scared like this?"

Jiang Huai immediately became anxious, and quickly picked up two bottles of red wine and ran to Wen Zhi: "I'm sorry for scaring you, let me apologize to you. What kind of gift would Master Wen like? How about I give you a private jet? Or do you prefer a yacht?"

Wen Zhi avoided his gaze.

"Are you going or not?" Si Mingchen lowered his head and asked Wen Zhi.

Wen Zhi nodded: "Yeah."

"Mr. Si, doing this will not do you any good, right? We are partners. Please forgive me for my father's sake." Jiang Huai chased after him uneasily, still holding the wine, and gulped it down in front of Wen Zhi.

Si Mingchen looked at him indifferently: "This is indeed of no benefit to me, but you deserve to be punished. If your father won't teach you this class, I will."

After saying that, Si Mingchen stood up and left with Wen Zhi.

Before Wen Zhi left, he quietly took a bottle of wine and reminded Assistant Wen to pay the bill.

Ming Yantang raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Huai: "In the future, you must be a good citizen who abides by the law. Come on."

"Thank you." Si Mingchen thanked Ming Yantang and said to Assistant Wen, "Do what I told you to do immediately. As for the rest of the people, you can handle them."

Assistant Wen: "Received."

After Si Mingchen left, Jiang Huai completely collapsed on the ground, panic-stricken.

The rest of the people looked at each other and left quietly.

Bai Tingchen stood in the corner, very scared about what happened today. Just because Si Mingchen didn't notice him just now doesn't mean Wen Zhi won't settle the score with him later. Because of that incident last time, he lost three male lead roles. What happened today might make Si Mingchen take ruthless action against him.

At this time, Song Wei walked to Jiang Huai and said, "Hurry up and call your uncle, so that he can be mentally prepared and see if there is any chance of a turnaround."

Jiang Huai said to himself: "I'm done."

Song Wei sighed and left with everyone.

Under the street light, Wen Zhi was very happy. Holding the bottle of red wine, he chattered about this matter with Si Mingchen.

Suddenly, Wen Zhi stopped and lowered his head and said, "He said you were too extreme today, so I couldn't help it. In fact, I was a little reckless."

Si Ming looked at Chen Jing carefully: "So, Zhizhi had a conflict with him because of me?"

Wen Zhi buried his head: "Well. I...can't stand him talking about you like that.

Si Mingchen touched his head, hiding the fatigue in his eyes: "I received your kindness, thank you. Next time, remember to protect yourself first, and bring a bodyguard with you."

Wen Zhi nodded obediently: "Got it, I'll change it next time."

Si Mingchen mentioned Bai Tingchen: "The man next to Jiang Huai, is his last name Bai? We met in the lounge last time."

Wen Zhi: "Well, he seems to be with Jiang Huai."

Si Mingchen: "No wonder. I asked Xiaowen to keep an eye on this person's matter."

The two of them walked in the moonlight. Wen Zhi was in a good mood. He drank a small glass of red wine and smiled at Si Mingchen.

Si Mingchen reminded him: "Don't get drunk."

Wen Zhi's eyes were already red: "Yeah."

Sure enough, after a while, Wen Zhi began to walk more unsteadily.

Si Mingchen took Wen Zhi to sit in the back. In order to make Wen Zhi more comfortable, he rested Wen Zhi's head on his legs and combed his hair for him.

The alcohol in Wen Zhi's stomach was getting stronger and stronger. He saw that Si Mingchen was having double vision and was not as clear-headed as before.

Si Mingchen looked down at him and asked softly, "Zhizhi, are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you need me to open the window a little?"

Wen Zhi stared at Si Mingchen blankly, then suddenly raised his hand to touch Si Mingchen's face, his fingertips finally stopping at the corner of his lips.

"Si Mingchen." Wen Zhi called in a low voice.

Si Mingchen: "I'm here."

"I'm sorry that my impulsiveness caused trouble for everyone."

Simingchen smiled: "It doesn't matter."

Because of being drunk, there were two faint pink spots on both sides of Wen Zhi's cheeks.

He suddenly asked: "Why do you like Xiaobenbi so much?"

Si Mingchen: "What? Little idiot...?"

Wen Zhi seemed to care about this matter, and said sadly: "You like him, not me. And you pamper him a lot, even letting him be the housekeeper."

Simingchen now understood what Wen Zhi cared about, and explained in a gentle voice: "I like you too. As long as it's you, I like you."

Wen Zhi didn't forget to act cute even when he was drunk: "I don't believe it, you just like him."

Si Mingchen's eyes were gentle, and he kneaded Wen Zhi's ears gently: "What should I do to make Zhizhi believe me?"

Wen Zhi's eyes were a little empty: "I don't know."

Si Mingchen looked at his drunken state, as if to say to him, or to himself: "Prove it with your actions, okay?"

After thinking for a moment, Wen Zhi nodded slowly: "Okay."

Si Mingchen lowered his head and approached Wen Zhi gently, but Wen Zhi suddenly moved away: "No, it stinks of alcohol."

Simingchen laughed out loud: "It doesn't stink."

Wen Zhi felt dizzy and remembered something very important. "Si Mingchen, why don't you like kissing me? We have been married for four years and you have never kissed me."

Si Mingchen was stunned for a moment, then replied: "I thought you didn't like me kissing you."

Wen Zhi was confused: "Why?"

Si Mingchen: "The day after we got married, I wanted to kiss you, but you refused."

Although Wen Zhi was drunk, his memory was intact. He racked his brains: "The day after the wedding? I remember it now. I ate garlic that day and was afraid that it would stink you."

Si Mingchen smiled: "Is that so."

Wen Zhi murmured to himself: "How could I not want you to kiss me? I have liked you for so long. Even though I thought you rejected me at first, I still secretly ran to France to find you during the winter break of my freshman year."

Si Ming paused, shock in his eyes.

Wen Zhi: "I remember it very clearly. When you first arrived in France, your second uncle didn't give you any pocket money. You went to work in a bookstore. I don't know the name of the bookstore, but it was on the right side of the intersection and the storefront was blue."

Si Mingchen felt a little heavy and slowly lowered his head: "Well, yes."

Wen Zhi actually had one thing she hadn't told Si Mingchen.

Back then, his motive for going to France was not simple. It was because he heard the conversation between Sang Qi and Sang's father and learned that Simingchen was not living a happy life.

After his second uncle sent Si Mingchen to France, he cut off all his bank cards and only paid for his tuition.

In this way, Wen Zhi boarded the flight to France.

That afternoon, he bribed an old lady, pretended to be illiterate, and asked Si Mingchen to help write a letter. After writing, the grandma left some money for Si Mingchen under the coffee plate as a reward for her kindness.

He didn't dare to give too much, fearing that Si Mingchen would be suspicious or refuse to accept it, so he gave one thousand euros.

After seeing his boss persuade Si Mingchen to accept it, he happily returned home with the little winter melon.

Although Wen Zhi didn't say it, Si Mingchen remembered it. It was also the winter break of Wen Zhi’s freshman year, what a coincidence.

He couldn't wait to ask Assistant Wen to investigate the date of Wen Zhi's flight to France, and he held his phone tightly.

"So, I am just a little licker." Wen Zhi suddenly got angry: "You don't even like me, but I still go to you. I am such a big scapegoat."

Si Mingchen looked at Wen Zhi with mixed feelings.

Wen Zhi seemed to have a lot to say, and he kept talking to Si Mingchen about his college days.

Si Mingchen listened quietly and waited for Assistant Wen's reply. Soon, his phone screen lit up. The itinerary shows that the day Wen Zhi went to France was the day Si Mingchen received one thousand euros.

As for why he remembered it so clearly, it was because that day was January 2nd, the day he fell in love with Wen Zhi.

Si Mingchen lowered his eyes, his eyes slightly sore.

No matter who instigated him and Wen Zhi, it is a fact that Wen Zhi has been injured for many years. But even so, Wen Zhi would still travel thousands of miles to find him and protect his pitiful self-esteem.

"It's okay, I'll be your bootlicker from now on, okay?" Si Mingchen asked.

There are still a few days left before recording the third dating variety show. Si Mingchen planned to take this opportunity to love Wen Zhi well and let Wen Zhi know that the person she liked was the one and only him.

Regardless of personality, regardless of memory.

Wen Zhi reacted slowly, a hint of drunkenness creeping up his eyebrows. He was surprised and asked: "Really? They all say that if you keep licking a dog, you will end up with nothing."

Si Mingchen's eyes were moist, and he smiled: "It doesn't matter, I already have it."

The driver in front was always looking at the road conditions with a focused expression. It is a professional norm not to listen to your boss's private conversations.

Wen Zhi bit her lip, and looked at Si Mingchen innocently and purely with her misty eyes.

His brain capacity is very small now, and he thinks in a linear way, and he is very focused on his goal. In addition, because he is drunk, he feels a little itchy in his heart.

"Si Mingchen."

"Um."

Wen Zhi secretly glanced at the driver in front of him: "I'm a little cold, I want you to hug me."

Simingchen hugged him: "Okay."

The car has entered the park where the company's residence is located. The surrounding environment is quiet, the green plants beside the big trees are hidden and lush, and there is very little traffic on the entire road.

Wen Zhi's cheeks were a beautiful pink, and because of being drunk, she spoke in a slow and hesitant voice: "Si Mingchen, stay here for a while, I don't want to go in yet, I want to talk to you."

Si Mingchen put his arm around his waist, and seeing that their home was not far away, he said to the driver, "Stop at the garden."
