Wen Zhengnan stood up angrily from his chair and roared at Xiao Ran.
He never expected Xiao Ran to be such an irresponsible man. He and Su Yu had already had a relationship, yet he still wanted to refuse the engagement. Did the Xiao family think the Wen family was too easy to bully?
Hearing Wen Zhengnan's words, Xiao Ran was slightly taken aback. How did these people know about his relationship with Su Yu? A video? What video? He couldn't understand at all.
"Dad, what's going on? I just went out for a little while, how could so many things have happened?"
Looking at his father's solemn expression, Xiao Ran felt like his head was about to explode. He had just gone out to find Wen Lu and had no idea what had happened at the banquet. This feeling of the unknown and being out of control was just too unbearable!
"Stop pretending! Fine, I'll show you what kind of video it is!"
At this moment, Wen Zhengnan took out his phone and handed it to Xiao Ran. This was the message he had received while the video was playing on the big screen in the venue.
The video on this phone is many times clearer than the one on the big screen; you can clearly see Xiao Ran and Su Yu's faces.
As Xiao Ran looked at the video on his phone, his hands trembled involuntarily. He never imagined that someone would record such a thing on video; it was just... too shameful!
"Xiao Ran, I thought it was one thing for you and Su Yu to do these things at home, but I never expected you to do them outside..."
Chu Qin stood up and rushed to Xiao Ran, grabbing his collar tightly with both hands and shaking him violently. She couldn't accept that Xiao Ran and Su Yu's relationship had been made public like this, which had completely ruined their family's reputation.
Whether Xiao Ran agrees or not, she has to make Xiao Ran and Su Yu engaged today; the Wen family can't afford to lose face like this.
If Su Yu doesn't get engaged to Xiao Ran, her life will be ruined, and she won't allow that to happen.
Xiao Ran gripped his phone tightly, closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and then resignedly replied.
"I'm willing to get engaged, I'm willing to take responsibility for Su Yu..."
After saying that, Xiao Ran slammed Wen Zhengnan's phone on the table and left the venue without looking back.
He was going to find Su Yu and ask her if this video was a tactic she used to force him into marriage. Did she really have no shame in order to marry him? How could she dare to do such a thing?
As Xiao Ran emerged from the banquet hall, he saw Su Yu walking back in a daze. Xiao Ran grabbed Su Yu's arm and led her away from the Jinzhou Hotel.
Today he is determined to get to the bottom of everything, even if it costs him his entire life, he wants to know just how terribly wrong he was.
Wen Lu had just returned home when her phone rang. It was a video her driver had sent her, about five or six minutes long. Immediately afterward, a text message came in, summarizing the events that had occurred between the Xiao and Wen families after she left the Jinzhou Hotel.
Wen Lu looked at the message on her phone and smiled coldly. This matter was truly fascinating. It seemed to have fulfilled everyone's wishes, yet it also disappointed everyone. She was extremely happy to have achieved this.
Wang Xiuli parked the car and walked over from behind Wen Lu. He saw Wen Lu looking down at her phone and guessed that it must be about what happened at the banquet. So he asked her excitedly, wanting to know what would happen next.
"Miss Wen, what happened next?"
Hearing Wang Xiuli's curious tone, Wen Lu finished watching the video, then casually handed her phone to Wang Xiuli, pushed open the door, and walked into the entryway.
Just as Wen Lu was changing her shoes, she noticed several figures in the living room. She paused for a moment, hesitated, and stood still without going inside.
After watching the video, Wang Xiuli walked in from outside with an excited expression. He was quite impressed with the scheme that Wen Lu had devised.
This clearly shows that they've figured out everyone's thoughts, and in the end, a rift has formed between them. It's probably impossible for them to get along well in the future.
"Miss Wen, this is..."
Wang Xiuli held his phone in his hand, looking at Wen Lu with excitement, and spoke in a loud voice.
But when he saw Wen Lu make a shushing gesture to her, he immediately stopped and became alert.
Wen Lu removed her finger from her lips and pointed her slender, jade-like finger towards the living room. When Wang Xiuli looked in the direction she was pointing, he was slightly taken aback and instantly became serious.
"It's the old master and the eldest young lady. The two people opposite are the Wen family's parents, and the other one is the first wife, who is also the fourth master's sister-in-law."
Listening to Wang Xiuli's introduction, Wen Lu felt a little irritated. These people didn't sound easy to get along with. She was wondering if she could leave first and come back after they left.
"Um... is it too late for me to run now?"
Wen Lu frowned slightly as she looked at Wang Xiuli. She had already decided to leave as soon as Wang Jinyu recovered, so why were there so many troublesome people again?
“Miss Wen did nothing wrong, so why should she leave? The video of Miss Wen being injured has been found, and it can be confirmed that she injured herself. If Miss Wen insists on framing Miss Wen, Miss Wen can sue her. Fourth Master has a good friend who is a very famous lawyer in the capital.”
Wang Xiuli looked at Wen Lu and spoke in a strong voice. His purpose in saying these words was to tell the Wen couple that things were not something they could decide. Miss Wen was protected by Fourth Master, so how could she be bullied by others?
Wen Lu smiled faintly as she looked at Wang Xiuli's serious expression. Now it seemed that Wang Xiuli was quite interesting, unlike Wang Xiuxin who was brainless.
“Miss Wen, why don’t you change your name? Don’t you think it’s unlucky for you to use this name now? Anyway, you’ve already left the Wen family.”
Wang Xiuli lowered his voice to remind Wen Lu that she was no longer a member of the Wen family, and there was no need for her to cling to that surname.
Wen Lu watched as Wang Xiuli seemed to be seriously considering things for a while, then shook his head. "My surname Wen has nothing to do with the Wen family. It's just that my surname is Wen. You take care of those people in the living room. I'm going upstairs to check on the patient upstairs. Also... I'm hungry. Ask the cook to prepare some food for me!"
After saying that, Wen Lu didn't even glance in the direction of the living room; she walked straight towards the stairs.
As Grandpa Wang watched Wen Lu's retreating figure go upstairs, his brows furrowed slightly involuntarily. He felt a surge of curiosity about this young girl.
It seems Wang Jinyu was right; this girl doesn't take their family seriously at all. Otherwise, why wouldn't she take the initiative to curry favor with him?
