Chapter 3 A home that belongs only to the two of us
Jiang Wanning was absent-minded throughout the entire alumni association dinner.
Finally, she couldn't stay any longer and went home early with an excuse.
At this moment, she really needs a place where she can be alone and calm down.
However, she didn't expect that the moment the key was inserted into the keyhole and turned to open it, Jiang Wanning once again saw the two faces she didn't want to face.
"Wow! Shi Wang, I haven't eaten the noodles you made in a long time. Your cooking skills are still as good as before, and they are still as delicious as ever!"
"Eat more of this, Shiwang. I remember you used to like this the most!"
Shi Wang and Xu Moli actually came back earlier than her.
At this moment, the two of them were sitting at the dinner table behaving intimately.
Shi Wang was even still wearing an apron that he hadn't had time to take off. He took the bowl full of vegetables that Xu Moli gave him and smiled with a doting look on his face.
"Okay, Jasmine, you should eat more too."
Jiang Wanning looked at the scene in disbelief.
When I think about when I met Shi Wang right after graduation, he was still a poor student entering society.
Having shed the title of a cool and arrogant academic master in school, he now lives a life of hunger as a trainee lawyer.
He was wearing a white shirt that had turned yellow from washing, and lived in an old city house that leaked all year round and was so damp that he couldn't breathe. He wished he could split a dollar into two.
But even so, the high consumption level in Shenzhen is about to crush his straight spine.
He has nothing except his good looks.
Jiang Wanning really couldn't bear to see the person she loved living this kind of life every day.
So he asked a friend to sell him a high-end apartment in the city center at a low price in a way that would least hurt his arrogance.
Shi Wang, who successfully obtained the property certificate that day, rarely showed any indifference from the past and happily hugged Jiang Wanning in his arms in front of the agency.
That day he said, "That's great, Ningning, we will have our own home from now on!"
"It's a home that belongs only to the two of us!"
Jiang Wanning still remembers this sentence. Just like the brilliant smile between Shiwang's eyebrows that day, it drew a turbulent stroke in her previously peaceful life.
To this day, the former trainee lawyer has long shed his youthfulness and has become a well-known lawyer who is feared in the business circle.
But the warm yellow light from the ceiling of the living room fell on another beautiful couple in the room, making Jiang Wanning look like the outsider who didn't fit in.
The two people in the room finally noticed her presence at this time.
Xu Moli was surprised at first, then smiled at her warmly and said, "You are Sister Wan Ning, right? I often hear people mention you."
Her tone was casual and generous, as if she was the mistress of the house.
The hot noodles next to her were a treat Jiang Wanning had never enjoyed before.
During the three years that she followed Shi Wang, Jiang Wanning never even knew that Shi Wang could actually cook.
Shi Wang on the opposite side also had a look of panic on his face the moment he saw Jiang Wanning.
"Wan Ning, Jasmine is my former classmate. She was feeling a little unwell and couldn't get used to the food at the party, so I brought her back early."
After another pause, he introduced Jiang Wanning to Xu Moli: "Moli, this is Jiang Wanning. You may not have paid much attention to her, but we met at the alumni meeting just now. She is a junior schoolmate who has a good relationship with me."
Xu Moli blinked. "Alumni association? I didn't expect Sister Wan Ning to be an alumnus of ours. Shi Wang, you're such a fool. I just ran into her at the party, but why didn't you introduce her to me?"
“There were so many people at the time that I forgot about it.”
"You! You're still the same as you were in school. You look cool and smart, but you're actually more careless than anyone else!"
They joked with each other as if no one was around, but Jiang Wanning's heart was deeply hurt by the words Shi Wang used when introducing herself.
I didn't expect that after three years, the only thing I got from the other party was "a junior schoolmate with whom I have a good relationship."
It's really ridiculous.
Jiang Wanning lowered her eyes.
Thinking that he would be leaving Shiwang completely in less than thirty days, he took a deep breath again.
"It's getting late, Shi Wang. Wait until Senior Sister finishes her meal and then you can send her back first. I have something to tell you."
After all, they have been together for three years. No matter what Shi Wang is like, Jiang Wanning still hopes that she can leave in a decent manner.
Unexpectedly, when the words fell, the two people opposite froze for a moment at the same time.
"What's wrong?"
"That's right, Wan Ning."
After a long silence, Shi Wang hesitated and explained to Jiang Wanning, "Moli had an accident at work and needs to stay here for a while."
"no."
This time Jiang Wanning refused without even thinking.
She really couldn't accept that another woman had squeezed into this little nest that she had built with her own hands and was filled with memories of her and Shi Wang.
"Senior can't live here."
"There are many hotels near the apartment. If it's not convenient, you can stay in a hotel. I'll decide how many days you need to stay."
As Jiang Wanning said this, she took out her cell phone and prepared to book a decent hotel for Xu Moli nearby.
This was the biggest concession she could make.
However, he didn't expect that the moment he took out the phone, it was snatched away by Shi Wang.
"Jiang Wanning, when did you become so inhumane?"
Jiang Wanning looked up in surprise, but was met with Shi Wang's gaze of disgust and dissatisfaction.
"I've already told you that Jasmine is only staying for a few days. Why are you so anxious to kick her out?"
"I am unkind?"
Jiang Wanning probably never dreamed that one day she would see such an expression on Shi Wang's face.
A strong sour taste instantly filled her nostrils, making her tone full of disbelief when she spoke again.
"Shi Wang, have you really become me over the years?!"
At this moment, she completely lost the mood to continue to entangle with the two of them and just wanted to get her phone back as soon as possible.
However, I didn't expect that during the struggle, a shrill scream suddenly came from beside me.
Originally, Xu Moli wanted to come over to stop the fight, but was accidentally bumped by Jiang Wanning's backward movement, and her stomach hit the corner of the table behind her.
"Jasmine! Are you okay!?"
The woman turned pale with pain, her face wrinkled like a pear blossom with tears in her eyes. "Shi Wang, Sister Wan Ning didn't mean it. It's all my fault. Please don't quarrel with her because of me anymore, okay?"
The other party seems to know how to arouse a man's desire to protect.
Sure enough, the next moment, Shi Wang's eyes were filled with overwhelming anger when he looked at Jiang Wanning.
"Jiang Wanning, why are you so angry about me? Jasmine is innocent, okay? Why didn't I realize before that you are such a person!?"
"I......"
Although Jiang Wanning believed that she had not touched Xu Moli just now, seeing that she was in great pain, she was a little worried and wanted to go forward to check.
I didn't expect that as soon as I reached out my hand, I was interrupted by Xu Moli's scream.
"Ah! Shi Wang, my stomach hurts!"
