Chapter 54 Men with wives who keep them in check are indeed different.
Zhou Ruo knows her two children too well: "We spoiled them too much, making them lack any sense of responsibility and act willfully."
"Two irresponsible people together won't support each other; they'll only drag each other down. I'd like to see if Yan Xu can continue to unconditionally support his good sister after a while."
"If he can stick to recognizing only Yan Zhao as his sister for the rest of his life, I'll have to admire him. At least your Yan family has someone with guts!"
If only they had known to let the child take his wife's surname, then the men of the Yan family wouldn't be so spineless.
Yan Huai'an said weakly, "...Xixi is also a descendant of our Yan family."
Zhou Ruo sneered: "Heh."
"Also, clear out everything in the house that relates to Yan Zhao. Throw away what you can, and send what you can't to the Wen family."
“Ning Jin has hurt my daughter time and time again, and I must also show my attitude.”
Yan Huai'an: "Have you cleaned them all up?"
“Yes, all the photos in our collection have been disposed of, not a single one left.” Zhou Ruo took a deep breath: “The Yan family will be Xixi’s home from now on, and we shouldn’t leave too many traces of outsiders!”
Zhou Ruo added, "Also, the gold jewelry and real estate that we previously deposited for Yan Zhaocun at various banks and insurance companies need to have their information changed and transferred to Xixi's name."
Zhou Ruo originally felt that the Wen family had carefully nurtured Wen Xi, so she never intended to take back what she had given away.
She considered these gifts as a token of gratitude to the Wen family for raising Wenxi, and also as a way to fulfill her mother-daughter bond with Yan Zhao over the years.
Ning Jin's actions made her change her mind.
Yan Huai'an always listened to his wife, so he immediately arranged for the housekeeper to take care of it.
Furthermore, he bears a great deal of responsibility for the fact that his daughter was switched at birth.
Zhou Ruosheng and Wen Xisheng worked for eleven hours before finally collapsing from exhaustion.
He was the first and only person in the family to have seen his daughter.
It turned out that his daughter had been switched at birth, and he didn't even recognize her.
Because of this incident, Yan Huai'an didn't dare to utter a sound after learning that the child had been switched at birth.
Wen Xi was unaware of what Zhou Ruo and Yan Huai'an had done.
Another week passed, and with preparations for Zhou Yuan's divorce case nearly complete, Wen Xi finally had time to reciprocate Song Hezhou's invitation.
We had planned to have dinner together last time, but Wenxi had to cancel because she had to go on a business trip to Jiangnan.
The two rescheduled for lunch today.
Before leaving home in the morning, the aunt reminded Wenxi to wear a scarf.
Wenxi casually put on the scarf that was on the sofa.
Upon seeing the words "Xi Xi" above, she suddenly thought of Shang Chen.
Shang Chen has been away on a business trip for another week. He said he would be back this morning, but the exact time is uncertain.
Wenxi was busy this week, and Shangchen was busy too.
Wenxi only had time to call him once, but they only chatted for a few words before Shang Chen had an urgent meeting and hung up.
Later, Shang Chen called, but Wen Xi was in court and didn't answer.
Later, Wenxi only told Shang Chen to take care of his health, and casually sent him a picture of the courthouse.
Their last conversation was about pictures of the courthouse.
Shang Chen got off the plane at eight in the morning and rushed home, only to find that he hadn't arrived.
He asked the aunt, "Where is Madam?"
The aunt said regretfully, "My wife just left the house, and I reminded her to remember to wear a scarf. If you had been a little earlier, you could have seen her off."
Shang Chen: "...Understood."
Looking at the empty villa, Shang Chen suddenly felt a little bored.
Doesn't Wenxi start work at nine o'clock?
He deliberately took the earliest flight, and as soon as he got off the plane, he took a car home.
Shang Chen wasn't in a hurry to see Wen Xi, he just felt the timing was right and thought he could see her when he got home.
They haven't had a proper conversation for a week.
Shang Shen had just finished showering when he received a call from Yan Zhao.
"Brother Shang, I'd like to meet you."
He buttoned his shirt with one hand, his expression indifferent: "What is it?"
Yan Zhao's sudden call did not elicit the slightest change in Shang Chen's emotions.
Yan Zhao seemed to have made a great decision. "There is something, very important!"
"I'll go when I have time, at the time and address."
Yan Zhao replied immediately, along with a screenshot of the address.
[1 PM, Ace Restaurant.]
Without saying a word, Shang Chen turned around and sent screenshots of his chat history with Yan Zhao to Wen Xi.
The two people's chat window was still showing the courtroom picture that Wenxi had sent last time.
Shang Chen felt it was too monotonous and asked another question.
Have you arrived at the law firm yet?
Wenxi had just arrived at the law firm and was reviewing documents.
Hearing her phone ring, she opened it and glanced at it.
Yan Zhao arranged to meet Shang Chen?
Wenxi quickly processed the information and typed a few words.
[Approved.]
【arrive. 】
Upon seeing these five words and two sentences, Shang Chen fell silent.
He sent Wenxi a screenshot to proactively disclose his itinerary and avoid any misunderstandings later.
Ke Wenxi's reply sounded like an emperor reviewing memorials.
Approved?
arrive.
Then what?
She didn't care about his schedule either.
After staring at his phone for a long time, the housekeeper brought over breakfast and asked with a smile, "Sir, has Madam arrived at the company yet?"
Shang Chen put away his phone, his tone somewhat indifferent: "We've arrived."
"That's good. I was worried about traffic jams on the way."
Shang Chen: "No need to cook lunch."
The aunt asked in surprise, "Is there a last-minute appointment? Sir's plane just landed, why doesn't he stay home and rest a little longer?"
Shang Chen never used to talk much with his aunt, but today he unexpectedly said a few more words.
"Yan Zhao asked to meet me."
The aunt, who knew about Yan Zhao and Shang Chen's relationship, asked in surprise, "The two of them met alone?"
Shang Chen raised his eyes indifferently: "Hmm."
The aunt hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but speak up: "Sir and Miss Yan were engaged before. Now the gentleman is married and Miss Yan is married. Isn't it inappropriate for them to meet alone?"
"I'm afraid of overthinking."
"No," Shang Chen said calmly. "Wen Xi has already approved it."
She didn't care at all.
The aunt immediately beamed with joy, "Sir, you've really changed. A man with a wife to keep him in check is indeed different."
“The master never talked to us about these things before.”
Shang Chen slowly lifted his eyelids and glanced at his aunt.
You're saying she's trying to control me?
"Isn't that right?" the aunt said with the air of someone who had been through it all. "Only those who love you will care about you. If the wife doesn't care, then the husband should be worried."
like?
Shang Chen never imagined that he and Wen Xi would one day use this word.
He then recalled his first meeting with Wenxi.
Wen Xi cut to the chase: "President Shang, I don't know how to love, nor do I ask my husband to love me."
"If you can accept this, I'm ready to get the marriage certificate anytime."
This meeting left a deep impression on him, including her saying that she didn't know how to love.
Now, the aunt says that Wenxi only cares about him because she loves him?
Shang Chen was skeptical of his aunt's words, but the look in his eyes finally softened.
After a moment of silence, Shang Chen picked up a knife without changing his expression, cut off a corner of the sandwich, chewed it gently, and smiled slightly.
