Chapter 445: Huo Yaoxing's face was hit crooked
"Tsk tsk tsk, the Wen family's dramas are one after another, and we can't even keep up with the fun."
"Hey, you've noticed. Ever since the adopted daughter of the Wen family got married, the Wen family has been plagued by misfortunes.
Do you think it's possible that all this was planned by that adopted daughter, just for revenge?"
"I haven't heard that the adopted daughter has any grudge against them? The Wen family is an official after all, she can't fail to see the situation clearly!
..."
Listen to what those people are talking about.
Wen Yan was shocked.
The hatred between Jiang Xinkui and his mistress is so deep.
Jiang Xinkui didn't even care about her own and her son's future, and tortured Lord Wen and his concubine to death.
That’s right.
As a concubine, anyone who touches her will be in trouble.
It would be strange if Jiang Xinkui didn't beat him to death.
After this incident.
Jiang Xinkui and his wife are completely separated.
There will be no peace in the Wen family anymore.
"You're distracted. Is today's noodle soup not tasty?" Ying Zhilin asked with concern when he saw her distracted.
Wen Yan came back to her senses and shook her head: "I was just thinking about the third young lady of the Wen family.
She had originally been betrothed to a well-matched marriage, but after the Wen family's uproar, she's afraid she can't keep it."
Although Wen San and Wen Yan have been fighting since they were young, they were just girls' quarrels and were harmless and not offensive.
"Everyone has their own destiny. If you lose something in one place, you gain something in another. If you are really worried, wait until she really needs it, and then help her out."
Wen Yan nodded.
After breakfast, they both went about their business.
Ying Zhilin went to work in the Hanlin Academy, while Wen Yan was busy with business.
The opening of new stores of "Yidian Mo" is already on the agenda. Wen Yan plans to open one each in the east, south, west and north of the capital.
She will not leave out other state capitals.
She did not miss out on the flourishing literary culture of Jiangnan and the prosperous Shu area.
With Jing Mingmei's elder brother protecting us in Shu, things should go smoothly.
Jiangnan has no relatives or friends, so not only will he have no one to help him, he may even be bullied.
However, in her previous life, she accompanied Huo Yaoxing in his exile to Jiangnan, and was well aware of the complex network of forces there.
Wen Yan sorted out the forces over there and planned to borrow two capable managers from the Meng family to go to Jiangnan together to balance the overall situation.
Shopkeeper Cui of Tianyi Cloth Shop heard about this from somewhere and immediately pushed Fourth Brother Liu in. "This kid has a lot of clever ideas. If you take him with you, maybe he can help."
It was already evening when we made these plans.
Wen Yan gestured with his hand to indicate the height of the sun and estimated the time. In about another quarter of an hour, Ying Zhilin would be leaving the government office.
He chases after me every day.
Today, she suddenly wanted to chase him.
"First, go buy some snacks that Ying Zhilin likes, and then go to the Hanlin Academy to pick him up after he leaves."
From here, go to Shiweizhai to buy some snacks, and then walk to the entrance of Hanlin Academy. It should take exactly fifteen minutes.
Wen Yan muttered to herself and after making a decision, she turned around and headed towards Shiweizhai.
After buying some snacks, she was about to go to the Hanlin Academy when someone stopped her: "Miss Liu, my master wants to see you."
Wen Yan looked at the person in front of her, her pupils trembled, and the hatred that instantly burst out of her eyes could not be hidden at all!
Huo San!
It’s him!
He and Situ Ming are Huo Yaoxing's right-hand men.
Situ Ming came up with the vicious plan, and Huo San did the dirty work, and the two cooperated seamlessly.
Wen Yan didn't know how many times she had been harmed by these two people.
Situ Ming had already been killed by him in the cave, and this Huo San...
She must be eliminated too!
After a while, she calmed down and said, "Who is your grandfather? I went just because he asked me to? I gave him face."
Huo San's face darkened. "Miss Wen, you'd better be sensible. My master is someone you can't afford to offend. You don't want to make a scene in public, do you?"
Huo Yaoxing came looking for him, maybe he had something bad in mind.
She showed an expression of anger but not daring to speak, and followed Huo San to a private room in a nearby teahouse.
After Wen Yan entered, Huo San closed the door from the outside.
Wen Yan slammed the door in panic: "Open the door, what do you want to do? Let me out quickly."
"Stop filming. You can't leave without my order."
Wen Yan turned around.
She saw Huo Yaoxing standing by the window, looking at her meaningfully.
Wen Yan pretended to be puzzled: "Sir, you are..."
"Wen Yan, we've been engaged for a few years, there's no need to pretend we don't know each other!"
Wen Yan stared at him intently for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Are you Huo Yaoxing, the heir of the Jinping Marquisate?"
She forced an awkward smile and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t recognize you at first.
After all, we have only met twice."
"You even painted a picture of me, saying I was incredibly handsome. How could I possibly forget that?"
Wen Yan blinked. "I've painted for many people, but not everyone will remember. Besides... my husband is a thousand times more handsome than you. It's actually very easy to forget about you, who is so ordinary."
Huo Yaoxing was so angry that his mouth pouted: "You said I was ugly..."
"No, you're just not as good-looking as my husband."
Huo Yaoxing: “…”
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.
When did she become so sharp-tongued?
In her previous life, she was clearly gentle, virtuous, and spoke softly.
Sure enough, after staying with Ying Zhilin for a long time, he became very vulgar.
Huo Yaoxing didn't want to stay any longer. When he thought of the purpose of his trip, he suppressed the urge to leave.
"Come and sit down." Huo Yaoxing pretended nothing had happened and greeted Wen Yan.
Wen Yan sat down opposite him without touching the tea he had poured. "Just tell me straight. Master Huo specially asked me to come here. What's the matter?"
Huo Yaoxing frowned: "Wen Yan, I don't like the way you look now. You are covered in thorns, which makes me very uncomfortable."
Wen Yan rolled her eyes. "What's it to you what I am like? I don't think Master Huo has anything to do, he's just bored and wants to make fun of me. I'm sorry I can't keep you company."
Wen Yan got up and left.
I reached the door and pulled it several times, but it didn't open.
Wen Yan turned around and glared at Huo Yaoxing: "Master Huo, what do you want? We are alone in the same room, it would be good for both of us if it gets out."
Huo Yaoxing suddenly approached her and lifted Wen Yan's chin with his fan: "Wen Yan, after getting married, I realized that I can't seem to forget you.
Come back to me and be my woman."
Wen Yan turned her head and dodged his folding fan.
The strong incense from Huo Yaoxing's body instantly invaded Wen Yan.
This is the smell of the incense that Huo Yaoxing usually uses.
Wen Yan felt nauseous when she smelled it, and she instinctively dodged away.
“Snap—”
A slap was thrown hard.
Huo Yaoxing's face was twisted from being beaten.
He covered his face and stared at Wen Yan in disbelief: "You dare to hit me!"
Wen Yan shook her numb hands and said aggrievedly, "You were the one who started it. I'm a weak woman, I was scared, so I did it instinctively.
Master Huo is a broad-minded person, he shouldn't bother with a weak woman like me."
