Chapter 108: Repaying the Wrong Favor, Marrying the Wrong Person
Zhou Wenting had a client in the afternoon, so she sent Xie Wantang downstairs and wanted to call a taxi for her, but Su Yang drove Lu Chen's car and brought Lu Chen over.
When Lu Chen knew what Xie Wantang was meeting Zhou Wenting for, he thought about it and felt uneasy after all. After hesitating for a while, he asked Su Yang to drive him over.
As soon as the two drove over, they saw Zhou Wenting sending Xie Wantang downstairs.
Su Yang parked the car in front of the two of them, and Lu Chen got out. "Thank you, Wantang."
Seeing Lu Chen's face, Zhou Wenting finally understood all of Xie Wantang's entanglements.
This guy looks exactly like her ex-husband.
She had just gotten divorced, and now there was this Lu Chen by her side. No wonder she was so hesitant and uneasy.
Needing her help so badly.
Zhou Wenting originally wanted to say hello to Lu Chen, but her assistant called and said that a client had arrived. "Okay, I'll be right up."
"My client has arrived. I'll go up first. The car to pick you up is here. Send me a message when you get home."
"Um."
After saying that, Zhou Wenting left.
Xie Wantang looked at Lu Chen, his emotions still not fully recovered, "Why are you here?"
"Why are your eyes red? Did you cry?" Lu Chen observed carefully.
“…”
Xie Wantang looked at Lu Chen with wet eyes and mixed emotions.
Thinking of the memories of the past that had been brought up earlier, she wanted to ask Lu Chen whether he had been to Luojia Bay ten years ago.
"Get in the car, I'll take you home." Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Chen spoke again.
Xie Wantang did not refuse or hesitate.
Lu Chen is her savior, so she just listens to whatever he says.
As for the regrets about the past three years, she can just digest it herself.
It’s not scary to love the wrong man. Just take back the love that doesn’t belong to Lu Yanshen. It’s a very simple thing.
It’s not a big deal if you repay a favor wrongly. You can just repay it again. However, you can’t repay it with your body like before.
After figuring it out, Xie Wantang sniffed: "Lu Chen, I..."
"What do you want to say?" Lu Chen's eyes were so gentle, encouraging her to speak out what was in her heart.
"Lu Chen, have you ever been to Luojiawan ten years ago?"
“…”
"When I was young, I went to many places. As for the Luojiawan you mentioned..."
Lu Chen wanted to fool him. If Xie Wantang asked him this question in a good mood, he would generously admit that he had been there, but he didn't want to make her feel worse now.
"Ten years ago, a terrible mudslide occurred in Luojiawan. More than ten people died, more than twenty were missing, and countless others were injured."
"So, have you been to that Luojiawan I just mentioned?"
“…I’ve been there.”
"Joined the rescue team, huh?"
"yes."
"How many did you save?"
"I don't know, but someone later told me that they saved more than 30 people."
“…”
Among the more than thirty people who received Lu Chen's life-saving grace, she was the only one who wanted to repay him by giving herself to him.
Alas, what a cruel twist of fate.
By the way, why didn't she confirm this matter with Lu Yanshen first?
If he had said he hadn't been there, she wouldn't have had to be so anxious, would she?
In this way, he and Xia Meng might have finally gotten married.
After going around in circles for so long, it turns out that their inexplicable love triangle doesn't hold water at all.
The man she loved was not Lu Yanshen.
She and Xia Meng are not love rivals.
"Among those more than 30 people, I was one of them. I was fourteen years old that year. You probably don't remember me." Xie Wantang said frankly.
"Thank you for saving my life. I can't repay you with my body now. How about this? I'll cook for you myself. What do you say?"
"Okay." Lu Chen nodded.
"Well, when you think of your favorite dishes, send them to me and we'll make an appointment."
"Yes, sure."
After that, there was a long silence.
When they were almost at Qin's house, Lu Chen spoke again: "Xie Wantang, if you still want to marry me, I don't mind..."
"You don't mind? But I do." Xie Wantang interrupted Lu Chen with a smile, "I'm here. Thank you, Mr. Lu, for taking me home."
Well, he was called Lu Chen just now, but now he has become Mr. Lu.
…
When I got home, no one in the family was back yet.
Xu Yanqiu was immersed in his creation in the room with headphones on. He didn't even know that Xie Wantang had returned.
Xie Wantang asked the housekeeper what Xu Yanqiu had eaten at home, and then went upstairs.
Xie Wantang went to her room to take a shower. She had just sweated a lot in Zhou Wenting's clinic, so she needed to take a shower.
After changing her clothes, Xie Wantang knew that Xu Yanqiu was working on her creative work, so she didn't go next door to disturb her. She sat on the bay window in her room, hugging her legs and staring blankly.
I don’t know how long it took, but it started to drizzle outside. The drizzle gradually turned into heavy rain, hitting the glass windows, making crackling sounds.
Xie Wantang went outside to bring the clothes inside.
When Xu Yanqiu closed the window, he saw her and asked, "Baby, when did you come back?"
"I've been back for a while. The housekeeper said you were creating, so I didn't want to disturb you."
"Hey, I'll be right over."
Xu Yanqiu closed the window, turned off the computer, and went into the room to find Xie Wantang.
"Not creating anymore?" Xie Wantang asked.
"I won't do it today. I've already applied to several websites. Let's wait and see the results. If it doesn't pass, then it will be a waste of time." Xu Yanqiu said.
Xie Wantang nodded, but he wasn't very excited.
Xu Yanqiu noticed it immediately, "What's wrong? What happened today? Didn't you go to meet your old friends? Didn't you have a good chat?"
"Qiuqiu, I..." Xie Wantang's throat was choked with sobs.
Seeing Xie Wantang like this, Xu Yanqiu was terrified, "Baby, what happened? Tell me everything that happened, I'll give you some advice."
Xie Wantang fought back the hot liquid in his eyes and shook his head, trying to shake it back. "It's nothing serious. It's just that I finally confirmed something today."
"What's up?"
"Lu Yanshen is not my savior at all. I repaid the wrong favor and married the wrong person."
Xie Wantang didn't want to feel so uncomfortable, but she couldn't help it.
I feel so uncomfortable that I can't control it at all.
Especially, the real benefactor has appeared beside her.
She regretted it very much. Why was she so impulsive three years ago?
Without being 100% sure, she married Lu Yanshen blindly and was ignored by him for three years.
Being ignored by him was fine, but he was enjoying all her efforts so comfortably. She felt it was not worth it.
Why does Lu Yanshen do that?
Xu Yanqiu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and hugged the distressed Xie Wantang into his arms. "Okay, baby, don't be upset. It's not your fault. It's that Lu Yanshen who is too shameless."
