Chapter 744 A Familiar Scene
Everyone saw how Xu Chen treated Wen Qingyi, and everyone just kept quiet about it.
“She is no longer my fiancée. She has the right to find her own happiness.” Gong Lian had no say in her affairs, nor did he want to. “I just feel sorry for Miss Lu’s situation. The eldest daughter of the Lu family has fallen to such a state.”
He has to compete with other women for favor in order to maintain his current position.
It is truly tragic.
It's unclear what he said that offended her, but as soon as Lu Nanchu heard it, she slammed her hand on the table with a loud bang, making the coffee cup on the table shake: "How I am doing is none of your business. You have no right to judge me here!"
After saying that, she seemed to have no more desire to waste words with him, and in her anger, she picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
Gong Lian wasn't angry. He just watched her leave quietly until her figure completely disappeared from his sight before he picked up his coffee cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he picked up the car keys and left.
That afternoon, at Qinyuan Bay.
After sending her new work to Song Sui, Sang Ruo was just about to take a break when she heard Uncle Jiang say, "Madam, there is a Mr. Gong outside looking for you."
Mr. Gong?
I guess they came to see her because of Wen Qingyi's matter.
"Let him in," Sang Ruo said calmly.
"yes."
After Uncle Jiang finished speaking, he turned around and went out to bring Gong Lian in.
When Gong Lian entered, he happened to run into Bo Jinyan, who was coming down from the study upstairs to see Sang Ruo. As soon as he saw the newcomer, Bo Jinyan looked displeased and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Didn't he know that Qinyuan Bay didn't welcome his arrival?
Upon hearing this, Gong Lian was not angry. Instead, he raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "I came to see Sang Ruo, not you. But since you are all here, there is something I would like to ask you."
"Why do we have to talk about this at my house? Can't we talk about it on the phone?" Bo Jinyan didn't want to see him at home.
Especially after he confessed his feelings to Xiao Ruo, he didn't want any contact between them!
Gong Lian ignored him and instead focused his gaze on Sang Ruo, who was drawing on her laptop: "Sang Ruo, I came here today to ask you, regarding Wen Qingyi's miscarriage, did you instruct Lu Nanchu to do it behind the scenes?"
He could have guessed it, but he still wanted to hear her give the most truthful answer with his own ears.
"What does this have to do with me?" Sang Ruo didn't even lift her eyelids. "This is between you two. Why are you asking me?"
What does Wen Qingyi's miscarriage have to do with her?
Why are you coming over to question Lu Nanchu about what she did? Is she easy to bully?
Just as Gong Lian was about to speak, he heard Bo Jinyan's voice from the stairwell: "Is such a small matter worth making a special trip for? Or are you just pretending to ask about this, and the real reason you came here is to see Xiao Ruo?"
Given the current relationship between Gong Lian and Wen Qingyi, there is absolutely no possibility for them to get back together; Wen Qingyi will never be able to return to Gong Lian's side.
Moreover, even with Gong Lian's connections, he couldn't find out the cause and effect of this matter.
Why make this special trip? Isn't the purpose obvious?
Having his thoughts exposed, Gong Lian's face darkened slightly, but he still smiled faintly and said, "Even if that's the case, so what? I abandoned my fiancée for Sang Ruo, shouldn't I come and demand a title from her?"
Demanding a formal status?
Why does this sound so familiar?
Sang Ruo suddenly remembered that after her divorce from Bo Jinzhou, Bo Jinyan had also come to her door in the same way, demanding a formal title. However, at that time, she had already had a relationship with Bo Jinyan, and all she lacked was a formal title.
And now, Gong Lian is actually using the same tactics to confront her at her door? And demanding a formal title? She clearly has no relationship with him whatsoever, so what right does he have to demand a formal title from her?
That's really interesting.
"A title?" Bo Jinyan felt this scene was familiar, and his face turned cold: "Xiao Ruo and I are already married. You have no relationship with her at all. What right do you have to demand a title? Aren't you a little too shameless?"
How come he never noticed before that Gong Lian was so shameless and persistent?
How dare he come here demanding recognition? Who does he think he is?
Gong Lian finally showed displeasure at Bo Jinyan's interruption: "I'm asking Sang Ruo, not you. The person involved hasn't spoken yet, so what right do you have to offer your opinion here?"
"Just because I'm Xiaoruo's husband! I have the right to express my opinion!" Bo Jinyan frowned, his displeasure deepening. "Gong Lian, why don't you go and pester Wen Qingyi? Why do you have to come to my house and harass Xiaoruo?"
Just a few days ago, he and Wen Qingyi were all lovey-dovey and affectionate, but after a while, he turned his back on her in the blink of an eye.
Isn't this change a bit too fast?
It's clear they have ulterior motives and ill intentions.
Upon hearing him mention Wen Qingyi, a flash of disgust crossed Gong Lian's eyes: "Can you please not mention that woman to me? I have absolutely nothing to do with Wen Qingyi anymore!"
Why is it that even though they broke off their engagement so long ago, he still can't escape the shadow cast by Wen Qingyi?
Why do people always associate him with Wen Qingyi?
“Since you have absolutely no connection, why did you come to see Xiaoruo today and ask so many questions?” Bo Jinyan saw through his lie almost immediately: “Don’t you think your words and actions are inconsistent?”
What they say and what they do never match.
On the surface, he said that Wen Qingyi had nothing to do with him, but today he came over to question Xiao Ruo about Wen Qingyi.
That's so contradictory.
Having his thoughts exposed by Bo Jinyan, Gong Lian simply stopped pretending and said directly, "But the child that Wen Qingyi miscarried was my flesh and blood. Even if it's just out of concern for this child, can't I at least ask about it?"
Bo Jinyan was speechless and didn't want to talk to him.
Only Sang Ruo, after hearing their argument, spoke calmly: "Then what did you come here to ask today? You just said that this was done by Lu Nanchu, so what does it have to do with me? You need evidence to doubt me."
He made these claims about her without any evidence.
That's ridiculous.
“Isn’t Lu Nanchu the biggest evidence?” Gong Lian looked at her with love in his eyes, tender and affectionate, so ambiguous that it was almost impossible to ignore, but the words he spoke were cold and indifferent: “Sang Ruo, tell me the truth, I just want the truth.”
Even if she admits it, he will definitely protect her and won't let her get hurt in any way.
Why is she so stubborn? Why does she insist on keeping it from him?
Is he not even as good as Lu Nanchu in her heart? Why can't she trust him the same way she trusts Lu Nanchu?
