The Wen family's sky villa.
"What?!"
"Huo Xiao went to school to look for Wen Meng?"
When Wen Jiaren heard the news while having dinner that night, his jaw almost dropped.
This was even more shocking than Wen Meng's disappearance for several days and sudden appearance in school without a word.
It seemed as if all these days of hard searching and the danger of death from Huo Xiao were all a nightmare for the Wen family.
"Yeah." Wen Xin put a chopstick of rice into her mouth and nodded, "She came to class today."
"Ah, it's okay, God bless you."
Mrs. Wen calmed down. She had been feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath these days.
Now that Wen Meng is fine, she has nothing to worry about.
Mrs. Wen: "Old man, let's get the children back quickly."
The three sons of the Wen family are still wandering around looking for this so-called sister.
Come to think of it, I've suffered a lot.
Her three sons were the apple of her eye. When they were hurt, she felt the pain in her heart.
When we made a video call that day, my youngest son started crying and kept asking to come back, saying he didn't want to look for me outside anymore.
He is the genuine young master of the Wen family, why should he suffer outside for that fake one!
But Mrs. Wen had no choice. Master Wen had spoken, and the whole family had to obey his orders and not disobey in the slightest.
I can only advise him to be more patient and find some secluded place to hide, just as if he was going out to relax and have fun.
Having said that, she also understood Wen Jiaren's approach.
Putting all the family's strength into the search, at least it showed Huo Xiao an attitude.
They are really trying their best to find Wen Meng,
Whether or not it can be found is another matter.
After all, Wen Meng's legs are under her own feet, so if she wants to run, no one can stop her.
I originally thought it would take at least three to five months, but now that Wen Meng has come back by herself, it is the best ending.
It seems that the suggestion someone gave her worked, saying that Wen Meng might have just gone out to play.
When I run out of money, I will naturally go home.
She has lived a life of luxury since she was a child and certainly cannot endure hardship.
So, Mrs. Wen canceled Wen Meng's credit card.
Sure enough, not long after, she came back.
But since she has returned to Emperor Planet, why doesn’t she go home?
Since Huo Xiao went to the school to find Wen Meng, the crisis of the Wen family was naturally resolved.
Wen Jiaren knocked his pipe on the mahogany table a few times, and the wisps of tobacco that were overfilled on the surface scattered on the table and carpet in a mess.
The servant beside him quickly lit the fire for him.
He took a deep breath, and suddenly the dining table was filled with smoke.
It provided everyone present with a refreshing secondhand smoke experience.
The smoke was choking, and the air inhaled into the lungs had little hooks on it, making the throat itchy. One wanted to cough but was hindered by the dignity of the head of the Wen family.
No one dared to cover their mouths, at most they held their breath.
In the Star Realm, whenever there are old nobles present, there will inevitably be this disgusting and pungent exhaust fumes.
The younger generation has long since abandoned this chronic poison, and only these stubborn old men still regard smoking as a symbol of aristocratic status.
As if this could preserve their former glory.
They thought the world was still in their hands.
The housekeeper conveyed the master's instructions to the three young masters, telling them not to look for them outside.
Wen Meng is back.
The second and third young masters both started cursing on the spot.
This damn girl is such a jinx.
Only Wen Yuan, the eldest son of the Wen family, remained calm. He quietly turned off the star message and breathed a sigh of relief.
He finally didn't have to pretend to know nothing anymore.
After the agonizing dinner, Wen Xin started coughing loudly when she returned to her room.
The cigarettes smoked by the old man made her throat dry and itchy, and she coughed up tears.
However, when she looked up and saw her luxurious princess room, her mood instantly brightened and a smug smile appeared on her lips again.
Compared with today's luxurious and wealthy life, what does inhaling a little secondhand smoke matter?
Expensive things can make people feel better, it is absolutely true.
After all, everyone wants to live a life of luxury.
She thought of where she used to live, a family of eight squeezed into a dilapidated house in the countryside.
All the area of the house combined is not even one-fifth the size of the bathroom in her current room.
The small size is not the most frustrating thing.
When I was a child, I was most afraid of rainy days. Whenever it was windy and rainy, it would rain heavily outside and drizzle inside.
Her poor mother always asked her to get a basin of water.
The basins are made of colorful plastic and are placed on the bumpy and uneven mud ground.
She hugged her legs and huddled in the corner, the only place where the rain couldn't leak in, listening to the sound of water falling from the eaves all night long.
There is always work to do, and I also have to help my parents take care of my younger siblings.
If it weren't for what happened later, she thought, perhaps her life would have been like this.
Until a ray of light shines into the darkness.
A teacher from Xingjing Daxing who went to a remote planet to teach saw Wen Xin working on the farm with several children in the wheat field.
At that time, her name was still Daya.
"Are these your brothers and sisters?"
The volunteer teacher is well-dressed and has fair skin.
It was obvious from his appearance that he had never been weathered by the ravages of life. He was not from the same world as them.
I heard from the people in the village that these teachers are nobles from the big stars and we can't afford to offend them.
The village chief repeatedly warned everyone to be polite if they saw him.
They knew it without the village chief telling them.
Because although their planet is poor and backward, it at least has beautiful scenery. There have always been many tourists who yearn for primitive life and come here to experience it.
Daya remembered it and nodded.
"Haha, you don't look like them at all."
The volunteer teacher laughed, and then joked with the people who were with him,
"This little girl and one of my classmates look like two peas in a pod. At first glance, I thought she was her illegitimate daughter."
"Which classmate?"
"She's the one who married to Emperor Planet. She's transformed from a sparrow into a phoenix."
As they talked, they gradually walked away.
It was an ordinary conversation, and the two of them accidentally broke into Wen Xin's life and should have become passers-by in her life.
The speaker may not have any intention, but the listener may have it.
These words kept echoing in her mind, almost becoming her nightmare at midnight.
From that moment on, a seed of ambition was planted in her heart, watered with obsession, and it sprouted and grew wildly.
She looked up at the sky, wondering if it was possible that this was not her destiny.
Did someone take away everything that belonged to her?
And now, the sapling has grown up, blocking out the sky.
Her dream came true.
She became part of the same class as the original group of volunteer teachers.
"Xinxin, are you okay?"
Just as Wen Xin was immersed in long-lost memories, a familiar voice sounded.
Mother Wen looked concerned and walked over to her. She could hear Wen Xin coughing from a distance.
I couldn't bear it, so I came to see her.
The daughter was raised in a poor little planet with a lack of food, which led to her malnutrition and a weak body.
When I first met her, she was pale and skinny, like a little chicken.
After being taken home, he gradually recovered, his face became more rosy, and his figure became much rounder.
The body can be nurtured, but the trauma of childhood is difficult to repair.
Mother Wen tried her best to give her all her love.
She had been consciously being indifferent to Wen Meng, fearing that any contact with Wen Meng would hurt her heart.
So even if Wen Meng didn't go home, she wouldn't care.
"Mom, I'm fine."
Facing Mother Wen's concern, Wen Xin shook her head and smiled warmly, not wanting her to worry about her.
Seeing Wen Xin like this, Wen's mother felt even more depressed.
Wen Xin is like this, weak on the outside but strong on the inside. She endures everything silently and is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
The Wen family will not let Wen Xin get hurt in the slightest.
But the last engagement incident hurt Wen Xin invisibly.
After Huo Xiao rejected her proposal to break off the engagement in public, she cried for several days after returning.
She felt that it was because she had not done well enough to make Huo Xiao fall in love with her that the Wen family suffered this disaster.
But there's nothing that can be done about it. It's up to Huo Xiao to decide who he wants to like, and the Wen family can't influence his attitude towards Wen Xin.
Now, Huo Xiao went to find Wen Meng again.
What I mean is, it has to be her.
This shows that the Wen family's plan to marry Wen Xin to Huo Xiao instead of Wen Meng has completely failed.
Mother Wen comforted Wen Xin and advised her that no one could do anything about matters of the heart.
Let her be more open-minded and not get stuck in a rut.
As parents, you can tell at a glance what their children are thinking of you.
Wen Xin is so sad, she must like Huo Xiao.
There is always a better choice.
Huo Xiao is not suitable, there are many young aristocrats and celebrities of the right age on Dixing.
"How are things going between you and Li Yuant?"
Mother Wen asked Wen Xin with a gossipy look on her face.
-
Wen Xin had mentioned to her when she came back from the last Imperial Star nobles' children's meeting that she had met a young man named Li Yuan.
Mother Wen was very familiar with this name, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
When she finally realized who Li Yuan Wen Xin was talking about, her eyes suddenly lit up with ecstasy.
What? !
The young master of the Li family has taken a fancy to his daughter!
Who in the Imperial Star doesn’t know about the Li Group?
Judging from the visible industrial wealth of the Li family, they control half of the assets of Emperor Star.
Not to mention, there are things they can't see.
The Li family is basically the richest family in Emperor Star.
But they never admit to being first.
"Silly daughter, Li Yuan's father is the chairman of the Li Group!"
When Wen's mother spoke, her voice trembled with excitement.
Wen Xin blinked, looking completely clueless. "Is it the Li Group next to the Presidential Palace?"
"Yeah!" Mother Wen held Wen Xin's hand tightly.
God made Wen Xin miss Huo Xiao, it turned out that he had arranged a greater fortune for her.
In that case, it doesn’t matter whether Wen Xin has Huo Xiao or not.
Because from the perspective of husband selection, Li Yuan is definitely a hundred times better than Huo Xiao.
Although Huo Xiao is the general of Emperor Star, he is a soldier after all. He is often away on the battlefield. Not only is he not seen by people, but people also have to worry about his life and death.
Li Yuan was also in the army before, but I heard that he has given up this path. I believe he will inherit the family business soon.
Whoever can marry him will have a lifetime of wealth.
She will become an imperial star, the richest lady.
So Wen's mother would come to ask Wen Xin about their progress from time to time.
-
Hearing Mother Wen's question, Wen Xin blushed, "We are still getting to know each other..."
Wen Xin was actually very depressed when she came out of the matchmaking meeting that day.
After being frustrated repeatedly in her proactive attempts, she didn't know how she could possibly feel better.
However, this is also expected.
Who made her only see the men at the top of the aristocratic pyramid?
For example, Huo Xiao, and Li Yuan.
It’s not that no one pursued her, but those with inferior family background and appearance were not attractive to her at all.
Only the best man is worthy of her now.
Things should have ended here.
Li Yuan came over and asked Wen Meng something inexplicably, then left inexplicably.
Just as Wen Xin was about to get in the car and go home, someone called her from behind.
It was Li Yuan who chased out.
There are twists and turns.
He asked for Xingxin's contact information?
Wen Xin was stunned.
However, she would not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
From then on, Li Yuan would chat with me from time to time.
Most of them asked about her family situation.
Even though it was asked casually, Wen Xin still felt,
Does he care a lot about his family background?
This also proves that Li Yuan really wants to understand her.
It's not just a casual chat.
Wen Xin knew that a powerful family like theirs would look for a daughter-in-law who was of equal status.
The Wen family is also aristocratic, but there are differences among aristocrats.
With the current family power of the Wen family, it is as light as a blade of grass in front of the Li family.
Wen Xin tactfully expressed her concerns to her mother. She was worried that Li Yuan would look down on their family.
Hearing this, Wen's mother was a little angry.
Young girls don’t understand, but don’t people like her who marry into a wealthy family understand?
She was just born in a merchant family. According to her social status, there was absolutely no way she could be associated with the nobility.
If she didn't have such means, she might have just married a businessman of similar level to her family and lived a peaceful life.
Where else can one have the opportunity to transcend class, become the mistress of the noble Wen family, and live in such a luxurious mountain villa?
"The key is to see what the man thinks."
Wen's mother said, "As long as men like you, they will overcome all difficulties to be with you."
"Even if the sky falls."
"In the end, the family couldn't persuade them."
Wen's mother told Wen Xin not to hesitate, the key is how to capture a man's heart.
Make them devoted to you.
"When you get along with a man, you need to have a balance between tension and relaxation, and control your actions."
Wen's mother shared her experience with Wen Xin, "If he feels that you are under his control, you should distance yourself from him and keep him hanging. But when he feels that you are no longer under his control, you should appear in front of him at the right time to let him know that you are still there..."
“It’s like flying a kite.”
Hearing what her mother said, Wen Xin's body stiffened.
Because of her previous failure experience, she felt that
If a girl is too enthusiastic and proactive, men may not cherish her.
So when facing Li Yuan,
She seems to have always maintained a reserved and cool personality.
No wonder Li Yuan was so enthusiastic towards her at the beginning.
During this period, I didn’t even look for her!!
It turned out that she was not flying the kite properly.
After learning the truth, she was extremely anxious.
The two have not been in touch for several days now.
So considering the current situation,
She should take the initiative to find Li Yuan.
"Okay, Mom, I got it."
Wen Xin smiled sweetly.
"Okay, then you decide for yourself,"
Mother Wen saw that Wen Xin had an epiphany, and her words and deeds were still useful.
She touched Wen Xin's head and said, "It's getting late. You should go to bed early."
"Um!"
After Wen's mother left, Wen Xin pressed the remote control and the white gauze curtains were automatically drawn.
The beautiful mountain night view is isolated from the outside.
Wen Xin thought to herself, it seems like she really should brush up on her knowledge of love.
She immediately found a bunch of strategies on how to keep a man's heart.
Reading by lamplight at night.
In the night sky, a bright moon rises.
Under the same sky,
In a high-end apartment in Lanwan District,
Four stuffed animals were lying on the soft bed, snuggling affectionately beside a young girl.
The girl was wearing a cute nightgown with her long curly hair loose.
Reading before going to bed has always been her habit.
I fell asleep automatically when I got tired of watching.
Just as she was in a daze,
Suddenly there was a message alert sound.
Ding!
[Xingju Rental Company failed to deduct the fee, please pay in time to avoid overdue]
Wen Meng picked up the phone and took a look.
Today is the day to pay the rent.
How much is the rent?
1234……
Wait until you can see the screen clearly.
Wen Meng stood there like a corpse.
What?! Living here costs 20,000 Star Coins a month?!
The charge failed because her credit card was frozen...
Wen Mengren was stunned for a moment.
I looked at my deposit again and there was only 21,580 left.
Now I have to pay last month's rent.
After paying, there was only a little over a thousand yuan left.
Wen Meng realized a terrible thing.
She is bankrupt!
