Wen tried to recall what the man looked like, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember; all she could see was a blurry face.
He was so drunk at the time that he kept calling out the name "A-Xu".
Wen Yi couldn't recall many of the detailed scenes, but she did remember the small, fragmented images. She knew from a few moments that she had mistaken the man from last night for Gu Huaixu.
And they are very proactive.
Wen Yi immediately felt nauseous, her stomach suddenly cramped violently, and then the nausea intensified. Wen Yi rushed to the bathroom and vomited violently, but nothing came out, yet she was still disgusted.
Wen vomited until there was nothing left, her eyes were red and swollen, and tears were hanging from the corners of her eyes.
She's disgusting.
I feel disgusted with myself.
Wen Yi covered her face and cried silently, hating herself for being so shameless. She couldn't control herself and had to go to the bar, get so drunk, and then have sex with someone.
Having a relationship with Master Gu is because of marriage; it's Wen Yi's obligation, and she can have countless reasons to justify it.
But what is it now?
Betrayal of Ah Xu once again.
Wen Yi felt utterly disgusted. She got up, sat down next to the bathtub, filled it with water, and stared blankly at the gleaming surface of the water.
Wen took off her clothes and got into the bathtub. She was leaning against the tub, but slowly she slid down into the water until her face was submerged.
Like a drowning person, but without the desire to cry for help.
The bathroom was quiet except for the sound of Wen Yi falling and the water in the bathtub overflowing.
until……
A sharp cell phone rang in the room outside. The person, who had been submerged in water with no will to live, suddenly broke free and emerged from the water.
She lay on the bathtub, gasping for breath and coughing violently.
His eyes were red-rimmed, and his hair was wet and stuck to his face and body.
Wen Yi coughed badly, and when she looked up, she could see the living room outside. Her phone, which was on the bedside table, kept ringing.
This is a ringtone she specially set for her parents.
The moment the bell rang, Wen Yi realized what she was doing.
She can't die now.
Wen Yi just stared at the ringing phone until it stopped because no one answered.
Wen Yi propped herself up from the bathtub, took a hot shower, changed into the hotel bathrobe, threw away yesterday's clothes, and asked the hotel to send her a clean set of clothes.
After changing her clothes, Wen Yi sat on the sofa and called her mother back.
"Wen Yi, why are you only answering the phone now?"
The father answered the phone and immediately scolded Wen Yi for being so insensible, "I told you before, I contacted you this morning, you have to deal with Wen Ge's matter, otherwise Wen Ge's reputation will be ruined by you. You are just delaying things, how could I have given birth to such a useless thing like you."
Wen Yi listened calmly to her father's scolding and complaints.
She didn't seem to have any particular emotions.
I used to find it offensive because I cared about it, but now I don't find it offensive at all.
When Wen Yi saw the cigarette pack and lighter on the coffee table, he picked them up and lit one.
She doesn't smoke, but at this moment she really wanted a cigarette; the smell of nicotine inexplicably helped to suppress the loneliness in Wen Yi's heart.
"Wen Yi, is someone with you?" Wen's father immediately sensed it.
Wen Yi said, "Nobody's here."
"What's that lighter sound? Who's smoking?"
“It’s me,” Wen Yi replied.
She wasn't a very good smoker; she would just let the taste linger in her mouth for a while, then reach into the ashtray and let it burn freely.
"You're smoking. When did you learn to smoke, a girl like you..."
"Why are you saying all this? It's Wen Ge now, Wen Ge!"
Mr. Wen was about to lecture Wen Yi about smoking when his mother's impatient voice rang out from the side, and then she took the phone away.
"Wen Yi, you said yesterday that Wen Ge's matter should be resolved as soon as possible. Now, can it be resolved?"
"Mom, you need to give me money to solve this," Wen Yi reminded her. "So, are you planning to use this 100 million to settle it?"
“Yes, we’ll pay the 100 million, but you have to promise me you must protect Wen Ge. Not only will you get her out of jail, but you also need to protect her reputation,” Wen’s mother reminded her.
"Mom, transfer the money to my account. I promise to let Wen Ge come out with a clean record and gain a lot of followers," Wen Yi said confidently.
You could hear Wen's mother breathe a sigh of relief on the phone.
"Mom, I'm waiting for your money, I'll hang up now..."
“We won’t send money,” Wen’s mother reminded her. “Your father and I thought about it all night, and we really can’t afford it.”
"So you're going to ask the Gu family for it?" Wen Yi asked with a hint of sarcasm.
“The Gu family won’t give it, and we don’t have the money either, but someone else does,” Mrs. Wen said confidently.
Upon hearing this, Wen raised an eyebrow, seemingly anticipating what his mother would say next...
"For Royal Garden, one hundred million is just a small amount; they can come up with it in the blink of an eye."
"So Mom means that Royal Garden should pay for this." Wen smiled.
"yes."
"Does Mom think Second Master Gu is a fool?" Wen Yi scoffed. "Would he give you this money for no reason and make you a sucker?"
“He is not only the Second Master Gu of Yutingyuan, but also your husband and the son-in-law of the Wen family. Now that the Wen family is in trouble and Wen Ge is in trouble, they urgently need this money. I believe that Second Master Gu, who has such a close relationship with the Wen family, will not be stingy with this money.”
What Wen's mother said made perfect sense, and the key point was that it was perfectly reasonable.
“Then Mom, go to the Royal Garden to ask for it. I’ll wait for your news,” Wen Yi said.
“No, we won’t get involved. It’s better for you to handle matters like asking for money,” said Mrs. Wen.
Although Wen Yi had anticipated this from the moment her mother was about to ask Yu Ting Yuan for money, hearing her mother actually say it was still quite interesting.
It's pretty ridiculous.
"Does Mother think I'm having a good time at the Royal Garden?" Wen Yi retorted. "You can get money from the Royal Garden if you tell me to. If I could really do that, it wouldn't be difficult for the Wen family to rise to prominence with the help of the Royal Garden. Why doesn't Mother tell me to get along well with Second Master Gu and help the Wen family?"
"Wen Yi, what are you saying? Why are you talking so incoherently?" Wen's mother clearly didn't understand Wen Yi's words. "I've said it many times, you can't compare to Wen Ge. And Yu Ting Yuan certainly can't compare to the Gu family either. Now let Yu Ting Yuan contribute some money so that Wen Ge can marry into the Gu family in the future..."
Snap!
Wen Yi hung up the phone before her mother could finish speaking.
She was initially quite calm, but she was afraid that if she listened any longer, she would become emotional.
She found it ridiculous and couldn't understand where Wen's mother got the logic to say such things. She was obsessed and didn't care about anything else, just determined to make Wen Ge marry into the Gu family.
The kind that never gives up!
