The banquet was a great success, but Mu Yanchen also got drunk.
Wen Yanxi drove him home. When going upstairs, Mu Yanchen's steps were unsteady.
The two of them returned to the room with unsteady steps. Mu Yanchen took off his suit jacket, untied his tie casually, and sat down softly on the bed.
Wen Yanxi poured him a glass of water and handed it to him, "Why did you drink so much? Didn't you remember that you had a stomach problem?"
Mu Yanchen took the water and took a sip, then held her hand and said seriously, "Yan Xi, you are the only one left for me. Promise me that you will not leave me!"
"Are you drunk? Why have you become so sentimental recently?" Wen Yanxi chuckled, deliberately teasing him.
Mu Yanchen took her hand and rested it on his cheek, his eyes moist. "My father called me this morning and said he's going to marry a woman from outside."
In fact, Mu Yanchen's father has been entangled with a woman and has not been home for many years. He has always been brooding over this matter.
Now Mr. Mu is going to marry a woman outside. Mrs. Mu will definitely be very sad if she knows this.
Wen Yanxi looked at him gently, "They are adults. It's not the younger generation's turn to tell them what to do. If you don't like it, don't participate. I will always be with you."
Mu Yanchen's eyes instantly flushed red. He held Wen Yanxi's hand tightly and said lazily, "You know I hate him very much. I was waiting for him to apologize, but he didn't. He only has this other woman and this other son in his heart. I won't accept this..."
Since he was a child, he was fed up with his parents' quarrels and the different women coming to his house every day. He hated the voices of those women. When he grew up, he didn't know what love was and chose to numb himself with alcohol every day.
Wen Yanxi was very clear about these things.
She listened to Mu Yanchen's voice quietly and comforted him, "It's all in the past. You should live a good life."
Mu Yanchen held Wen Yanxi's hand tightly, his palms sweating profusely. He looked at her pleadingly, "Xixi, my father has given me an ultimatum. If I don't get married this year, he will transfer the company's shares to my brother who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun."
"My stepmother and stepbrother have long been looking for an opportunity to devour the Mu family's fortune."
"You know I have a lot of business. It's very dangerous to just marry a random woman. I might even get into financial trouble."
"If... you could help me, I would save myself a lot of trouble? Yan Xi, you will help me, right?"
Mu Yanchen looked at her sincerely, waiting for his answer.
Wen Yanxi felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but if she didn't help Mu Yanchen, she couldn't find a reason to refuse.
They were best friends, and she had always known that Mu Yanchen wanted to take back the family business as soon as possible.
Now is such a good time, she should help him.
"I promise you that as soon as I get the shares, I will divorce you and will not cause you any trouble!" Mu Yanchen pleaded.
Wen Yanxi took a deep breath and recalled the past. There was a time when a school bully bullied her, and it was Mu Yanchen who stood up for her and he was even injured for it.
He stood up for her every time. Now that Mu Yanchen needed her, how could she refuse him?
After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said, "Okay, sure."
"You agreed?" Mu Yanchen asked excitedly.
Wen Yanxi nodded, her eyes more determined, and said in a relaxed tone, "Of course, I hope you can get back your shares and property as soon as possible. But you have to remember that our marriage is just a fake one."
After she finished speaking, she felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart, and Qi Sihan's figure flashed through her mind.
They almost got married before...
Mu Yanchen smiled, slowly took out a diamond ring from his pocket and put it on her ring finger.
"This is?"
