Chapter 175 The Person Can't Be Found
Bai Wei had just declined the interview team's offer and was about to leave when she suddenly saw a familiar-looking person loitering at the entrance of the building.
She thought for a long time but couldn't remember who it was.
She only remembered when the elevator reached Zhongda.
Yan Xu!
She had seen Yan Xu when she was with Wen Xi, but she didn't have a very deep impression of him, so she didn't recognize him immediately.
What is Yan Xu doing, hesitating at the entrance of Zhongda?
Was he looking for Wen Lu?
Bai Wei thought for a moment, then took the elevator back to the first floor.
She searched all around but couldn't find Yan Xu.
Bai Wei wondered, could it be that Yan Xu wasn't here to see Wen Lu?
How come you can't see them anymore in the blink of an eye?
Just as she was wondering, she received a call from her best friend, Lu Zhi.
"My dear Weiwei, could you please pass on a message to Sister Xixi for me?"
"What's up?"
"When Yan Zhao heard the rumors online, she took the initiative to persuade Yan Xu to apologize to Sister Xixi and also asked Yan Xu to help Sister Xixi."
Bai Wei immediately understood: "I knew he was loitering around our law firm all day and hadn't come in for ages."
I guess he agreed to help Wen Lu, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Lu Zhi said softly, "Weiwei, I have something else to tell you."
Bai Wei: "What is it?"
"My brother and Yan Zhao went to get their divorce certificate today."
Bai Wei's eyes lit up: "What?! So fast?"
"It's probably because Yan Zhao figured things out that she brought it up herself."
Bai Wei: "I'm going to tell Wen Lu about this. I was wondering why you stopped calling her sister-in-law..."
So they really did get divorced.
Bai Wei went to gossip to Wen Xi with great interest.
"Wen Lü, Lu Jinghuai and Yan Zhao have divorced!"
"This is truly a cause for celebration!"
Wen Xi stared at Bai Wei strangely: "Lu Jinghuai is divorced, why are you so happy?"
Bai Wei was taken aback before realizing, "That's right!"
"What does their divorce have to do with me? Why should I be so happy about it?"
Wenxi: "..."
Bai Wei scratched her head and said, "Maybe it's because Lu Zhi complained to me too much in the past, and I'm too immersed in the gossip."
"After watching Yan Zhao cause so much trouble that several families couldn't have peace, now we finally don't have to hold our anger in anymore?"
Wenxi raised an eyebrow: "They're divorced, so you won't have any more gossip to hear."
Bai Wei: "..."
Just as she was about to leave, Bai Wei suddenly remembered Yan Xulai: "Wen Lu, I just saw your brother."
Fearing Wenxi might not understand, Bai Wei specifically said the name: "Yan Xu".
Wen Xi asked calmly, "What is he doing here?"
"They said Yan Zhao saw the rumors online and asked him to come over and apologize, and also to see if he could help you."
Wenxi: "Where is he?"
"He was just wandering around downstairs, but I couldn't find him when I went down to look for him." Bai Wei: "Could it be that he was too embarrassed to go back early?"
Wenxi fell into thought, "It shouldn't be."
This isn't the first time Yan Xu has apologized to her, so what's there to be ashamed of?
Wen Xi's expression suddenly hardened. "Wait, when did Yan Xu disappear?"
Bai Wei: "Just five minutes ago."
Wenxi: "Did that interview team just come downstairs?"
Bai Wei was also taken aback, and her expression changed.
"He wouldn't have said anything inappropriate to the interview team, would he?!"
For a moment, Bai Wei wondered whether Yan Xu had come to help or to cause trouble.
Wenxi stood up, holding her phone, and said, "Let's go downstairs and take a look."
Wenxi didn't have Yan Xu's phone number and couldn't contact him immediately.
When she went downstairs, she specifically asked Shang Chen.
Unfortunately, Shang Chen was busy and probably didn't see it.
Bai Wei also asked Lu Zhi for her phone number.
Lu Zhi won't have Yan Xu's phone number either; she'll still have to contact Yan Zhao.
After going around in circles, several minutes were wasted.
After a while, Bai Wei excitedly said, "Wen Lu, we found Yan Xu's phone number."
Wenxi parked the car on the side of the road, slowly rolled down the window, and said indifferently, "No need."
Bai Wei followed her gaze.
In the distance, Yan Xu was seen sitting opposite a couple in a coffee shop, chatting happily.
Bai Wei: "..."
Suddenly I had a feeling of utter madness.
"He...he did it on purpose?"
"You want to take advantage of my misfortune and retaliate against Wen Lü?"
It's no wonder Bai Wei thinks that way.
At such a sensitive time, Yan Xu suddenly appeared, saying he was there to help, but he didn't even show his face.
He turned around and silently followed an online media outlet.
Bai Wei couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Wen Lu, he wouldn't be spouting nonsense to those media outlets, would he?"
"What's circulating online right now is all rumors, and you can clear it up once you step in. But if he starts spreading rumors, it's bound to cause trouble..."
When Bai Wei said "talking nonsense," she was referring to the fact that the Yan and Wen families had switched the babies.
Yan Xu has always favored his sister. If he takes the opportunity to distort the truth and talk about private matters between the two families, it will cause a lot of trouble later.
Wenxi leaned back in her chair, showing no sign of impatience.
"In such a short time, we've probably already talked about everything we needed to talk about."
Bai Wei said with a long face, "I suddenly understand why Lu Zhi finds Yan Zhao annoying."
Although Yan Zhao did not directly harm Lu Zhi's interests, the things she caused repeatedly implicated the Lu family.
As a member of the Lu family, how could Lu Zhi be completely unaffected?
Similarly, now that Yan Xu is causing trouble, it will only implicate her family member Wen Lu... and perhaps even her, an innocent bystander.
Bai Wei tried to salvage the situation: "Wen Lu, is it too late for us to go in now?"
Wenxi sat motionless inside the car.
"Go in now and drag Yan Xu out, and this afternoon we'll see headlines like 'Wealthy siblings in a love-hate relationship' and 'Wen Mouren, enraged, breaks down the door.'"
"Hmm, maybe someone will be live-streaming it somewhere we don't know, and then the video of me hurriedly dragging Yan Xu away will spread widely."
Bai Wei: "..."
Bai Wei was on the verge of tears: "What should we do?"
Bai Wei tried to comfort herself: "On the bright side, maybe he was saying good things about Wen Lu?"
Wen Xi glanced at Bai Wei indifferently, "The important thing is not what he said, but that he accepted the media interview on my behalf."
Online media outlets can make the dead seem alive with just a keyboard; truth and falsehood are never important.
What Yan Xu said is even less important.
The important thing is to see what direction the media wants to guide.
Wen Xi's eyes remained calm: "We're getting ready to leave."
Bai Wei: "Oh..."
Wenxi was just about to leave when Yan Xu finished his interview and left as well.
He recognized Wenxi's car at a glance and walked over.
Wenxi lowered the car window, her gaze towards Yan Xu unusually calm.
"What are you doing?"
Yan Xu walked with a brisk pace, as if he had done something important. Standing beside Wen Xi's car, he said, "You've seen it all, what else do you want to ask?"
"No need to thank me, I promised my sister I'd help you and I won't go back on my word."
Wenxi: "?"
He was quite reserved, saying, "When they interview me, I always speak well of you and clarify the rumors."
Wenxi: "..."
Bai Wei sat in the car, unusually silent.
Yan Xu was still basking in the pleasure of helping Wen Xi. "I helped you, can you do me a small favor?"
Seeing that Wenxi remained silent, Yan Xu's momentum immediately diminished.
“I won’t make things difficult for you, it’s just a small matter…” Yan Xu’s face was full of concern for Yan Zhao: “Last time my sister was harmed by the Wen family’s illegitimate daughter, she never thought of harming you.”
"Everyone is saying she's spreading rumors about you, and she's in so much pain every day... Can you help clear my sister's name?"
Bai Wei, unable to bear it any longer, was about to utter a few words of abuse when Wen Xi rolled up the car window expressionlessly.
Yan Xu was taken aback.
Seeing Wenxi drive away without hesitation, a shadow fell over his eyes.
"If you don't want to, then you don't want to..."
He did help Wenxi, but she was so cold to him.
Yan Xu felt inexplicably angry.
After the car had driven for a while, Bai Wei finally couldn't take it anymore and yelled, "Ahhh!"
"What kind of weirdo is this?!"
"I always thought I wasn't smart, but who knew there were people even dumber than me?!"
He caused trouble but was still smug and wanted to take credit!
How could he possibly have the nerve?!
