Chapter 30 "How could you be so vicious!"
Wenxi had just changed her shoes and was taking off her coat.
Seeing Yan Xu staring at her resentfully, Wen Xi calmly handed her coat to the aunt, "Are you trying to say that I bullied Yan Zhao?"
"Isn't that right?!"
Zhou Ruo remained calm: "Ah Xu, do you have any evidence that Xi Xi bullied Yan Zhao?"
Yan Xu: "My sister told me this herself; she never lies!"
Wenxi: "Did your 'sister' tell you why I 'bullied' her?"
Yan Xu suddenly stepped forward aggressively, his face flushed, "You think you're right to bully others?!"
"Just live your own life, why do you have to bother my sister?!"
How could you be so vicious!
Yan Xu's eyes turned red with anger, and he suddenly rushed towards Wen Xi. Those who didn't know the situation thought he was going to hit her.
Zhou Ruo rushed forward to stop him: "Yan Xu, what do you think you're doing?!"
Wenxi watched coldly, preparing to retaliate, when suddenly she was pulled backward by a force.
She bumped into a broad, sturdy embrace from behind.
Wen Xi looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Why are you here?"
The man's strong arms embraced her, protecting her in his arms.
Shang Chen's deep-set features hardened with a cold solemnity, and he spoke in a low, authoritative voice: "Yan Xu, you've gone too far!"
"Assistant Wu!"
Assistant Wu rushed forward instantly, grabbed Yan Xu by the collar, and slammed him to the ground.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Once Wenxi had steadied herself, she asked again, "How did you find your way here?"
Shang Chen's brows furrowed: "I'm worried about you."
Wenxi: "...I'm fine, don't worry."
After saying that, Wenxi suddenly realized that she was also quite unromantic.
Should she feel shy and express her gratitude?
Or should he smile at Shang Chen, or give him a kiss to express his gratitude?
Wenxi couldn't do these things.
Wenxi's mind was immediately cleared of these random thoughts.
Shang Chen arrived at just the right time; first, he rescued the damsel in distress, and then he immediately began to speak sweet words.
If Wenxi weren't a little more composed, she probably would have been completely captivated by Shang Chen.
Shang Chen whispered in Wen Xi's ear, "Shang Ze mentioned the police station incident."
So it was Shang Ze who said it; no wonder he arrived so quickly.
Wen Xi quickly got out of Shang Chen's arms and looked at Yan Xu on the ground. "Assistant Wu, let him go."
Yan Xu struggled on the ground for a while, then roared, "What do you want to do?! I don't hit women."
He didn't intend to hit Wenxi; he just rushed at her in a fit of anger.
Wenxi's voice was crisp and cold, like jade, showing no mercy. "Your sister won't tell you the reason, but I will."
Yan Xu turned his head, his eyes red as he glared at Wen Xi, as if he had a deep-seated hatred for her.
Wenxi: "Yan Zhao is unhappy, probably because I scolded her at dinner a couple of days ago."
“I also threatened her that if she dared to buy a house in Lishan Mansion, I would have Shang Chen give his and Yan Zhao’s wedding house to Lu Jinghuai.”
“She didn’t dare tell you about this because she knew she had done something stupid, and she was afraid that Lu Jinghuai would be angry if he found out, and she was also afraid that her parents would scold her.”
"What, you weren't satisfied with beating up Lu Jinghuai, now you want to beat me up too to vent your sister's anger?"
The Yan family members were completely bewildered. Zhou Ruo paused for a moment, then asked incredulously, "Xi Xi, what did you say?"
"Yan Zhao wants to buy a house in Lishan Mansion?!"
She's gone mad!
Beijing is such a big city, who would be so foolish as to buy their wedding home next to their ex-fiancé/fiancée?!
In particular, the relationship between Wenxi and Yan Zhao is far more complicated than that of a simple former engaged couple.
Even though Yan Xu was a sister-complex person, his mind went blank for a moment.
He instinctively exclaimed, "Impossible!"
Wen Xi: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Yan Zhao."
Yan Xu clenched his fists and pressed his lips together.
Wen Xi curled her lips: "You two siblings are exactly the same when you're angry."
"Let me be frank with you, if Yan Zhao doesn't do something stupid and come right in front of me, I won't even bother to look at her."
Yan Xu looked embarrassed: "...I don't believe it!"
That's your problem.
Yan Xu stormed out of the Yan family home, not knowing whether he was going to find Yan Zhao to ask for the truth.
Zhou Ruo stepped forward and took Wen Xi's hand: "Xi Xi, tell Mom what happened?!"
"How could Zhao Zhao come up with such a terrible idea?"
Wenxi: "She said it was because she was angry with Lu Jinghuai."
Wenxi also couldn't understand Yan Zhao.
Wenxi felt that Lu Jinghuai was being spiteful by bringing up the wedding house issue; his brain was full of water, and you could hear a crisp sound if you shook it.
Zhou Ruo took a deep breath to barely maintain her composure. "It's because your father and I spoiled Yan Zhao."
"Is a wedding room something to be used for venting anger? All her fussing and tantrums will only hurt herself and others sooner or later... She's really too immature."
Wenxi remained expressionless, secretly trying to pull her hand away from Shang Chen's, but failed.
Just now, when she mentioned giving Shang Chen and Yan Zhao's wedding house to Lu Jinghuai, Shang Chen's large hand suddenly grasped hers, quite firmly.
Wenxi looked up at him.
The man's face was expressionless, and his emotions were difficult to discern.
Wenxi asked directly, "Are you angry?"
Wenxi was not an inflexible person; when dealing with Yan Xu, her tone was cold and sharp.
When speaking to Shang Chen, her tone unconsciously softened.
"No."
"lie."
Why are you holding her hand so tightly if you're not angry?
Shang Chen looked at her quietly, "We'll talk about it when we get back tonight."
Wenxi reluctantly said, "Fine, but you have to let go of my hand first?"
Shang Chen slowly released his grip.
Wenxi felt uneasy for a while, her hands still feeling restrained.
It was hot and heavy, so hot it made my palms itch.
The interaction between the two was seen by Zhou Ruo and Yan Huai'an as a romantic moment between the young couple.
Zhou Ruo smiled broadly: "Since you said you wanted to come, I quickly asked Auntie to make some pork tripe and chicken soup. It's perfect for warming up and dispelling the cold. You should all have a couple more bowls later."
Wen Xi nodded calmly: "Okay."
Shang Chen asked, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, shouldn't we worry about Yan Xu?"
Yan Huai'an: "No need. This kid only grows tall but not smart. He deserves to be taught a lesson."
Zhou Ruo held Wen Xi's hand and said gently, "Your father is right, Yan Xu really needs to suffer a bit."
“He’s an adult, and your dad and I can’t control him too much.”
Zhou Ruo was open-minded and spoke frankly, "He can recognize whoever he wants to be his sister in the future. Xixi, you don't need to treat him like a younger brother. Everyone has their own destiny."
