Chapter 97 "As long as you acknowledge me, I will always be your brother."
Wen Zhou and Lu Jinghuai arranged to meet at a tea restaurant for tea.
As soon as Lu Jinghuai entered, Wen Zhou glanced at the bodyguard behind him and said without changing his expression, "Your business has grown so much lately that you're using bodyguards now?"
Lu Jinghuai sat down expressionlessly: "Your mother is a real troublemaker."
Aside from the Yan siblings, Ning Jin was the most troublesome person in Lu Jinghuai's marriage.
What were originally minor matters immediately escalated into major issues once Ning Jin got involved.
She was a female elder, and Lu Jinghuai, considering the relationship between the two families, couldn't very well go to her door to criticize her.
Wen Zhou replied, "Your wife is just as good."
"That's your sister too!"
"She's not your wife anymore?"
"I want a divorce."
"no!"
Lu Jinghuai stared coldly at Wen Zhou, waiting for his reply.
Wen Zhou: "The Wen and Lu families have cooperated so much. If you get divorced now, what will happen to these cooperations?"
Lu Jinghuai said expressionlessly, "You can marry my sister if you want."
Wen Zhou, with the same indifferent expression, said, "Then I also have a good idea."
"You can divorce Yan Zhao and marry my father's illegitimate daughter, it will still count."
Lu Jinghuai's face instantly contorted, as if he had swallowed a live fly.
Wen Zhou's tone softened a bit as he took a sip of tea: "Don't worry, I don't plan to beat you up."
"You don't need bodyguards to be with you all the time."
Lu Jinghuai's face darkened.
He brought bodyguards not only to guard against Wen Zhou, but also as a precaution.
Wen Zhou said slowly, "I entrusted my sister to your care, and what have you done?"
"In just over a month, he broke off the engagement and married someone else. That's efficient enough."
Wen Zhou was the only one who knew about the fake marriage between Wen Xi and Lu Jinghuai.
His original intention was to entrust Lu Jinghuai with the care of Wenxi, but who knew that Lu Jinghuai would "make use of waste" and turn the fake marriage into a real one, directly marrying Yan Zhao.
"You deserved all the suffering you've endured during this time. Who told you to be blind back then?"
Lu Jinghuai: "..."
He never expected that Yan Zhao, who seemed normal at first, would turn out like this after marriage.
Wen Zhou: "Considering you've already been beaten twice, I'm too lazy to do anything."
Lu Jinghuai: "...Is Yan Zhao really your biological sister?"
Wen Zhou fell silent for a moment before saying, "There is a paternity test to prove it, it's true."
"You two siblings really don't look alike at all."
"I think she has my family's genes."
Lu Jinghuai: "?"
"Just like my mom."
Lu Jinghuai: "..."
The Lu and Wen families had a good relationship, so Lu Jinghuai naturally knew about Ning Jin's past life-or-death struggles.
If Yan Zhao were to turn into someone like Ning Jin in the future, it would be a nightmare for Lu Jinghuai.
“We are incompatible, and we can’t live together without getting a divorce.”
Wen Zhou: "She's stupid, but she can be taught; she's impulsive, but she can be tempered."
"Anyway, the project isn't finished for the next two years, so you can't leave."
Lu Jinghuai: "What do you mean?"
Wen Zhou didn't answer, but instead brought up another matter.
“I promised my dad that I would take his illegitimate daughter back to the Wen family to raise her.”
Lu Jinghuai's expression froze for a moment. "Aren't you the one who hates your father's illegitimate daughter the most?"
Ning Jin threatened to jump off a building with Wen Xi in her arms back then because Wen Haichuan wanted to bring his illegitimate daughter home.
Wen Haichuan not only wanted his illegitimate daughter to enter the Wen family, but also wanted to register her under Ning Jin's name so that she would become the Wen family's rightful second daughter.
Wenzhou was only ten years old at the time.
The Wen family was in an uproar.
Ten-year-old Wen Zhou, carrying a knife and a can of gasoline, broke into Wen Haichuan's private villa.
Lu Jinghuai didn't know what happened at the time; he had only vaguely heard his parents mention it.
Wen Zhou poured gasoline on himself and his illegitimate daughter, and almost set them on fire while holding his daughter.
Wen Haichuan, who rushed over in a panic, was so frightened that his legs went weak, and in the end he had no choice but to give up.
Judging by appearance alone, everyone would praise Wen Zhou for being handsome and dashing, like a gentleman.
But Lu Jinghuai knew all too well how many extreme things Wen Zhou had done over the years.
Wen Zhou: "My mother and Yan Zhao have had it too easy, which is why they keep causing trouble everywhere."
"Find them something to do, let them know what it means to be a dangerous person."
"You've let a wolf into the house," Lu Jinghuai commented sharply. "If you allow her into the Wen family, you won't be able to get rid of her later."
"Before, I wanted to gain the Wen family's approval. After moving into the Wen family's home, I probably just want the Wen family's shares and assets."
Wen Zhou said coldly, "I know what I'm doing."
Lu Jinghuai was silent for a moment, then asked, "Will your method work?"
If Yan Zhao can calm down, Lu Jinghuai, out of respect for Wen Zhou, can barely hold on for another two years.
Wen Zhou smiled and said, "If you're worried, I have another good idea."
Lu Jinghuai: "Isn't that a terrible idea?"
He had never heard a good idea from Wen Zhou.
Wen Zhou handed him a piece of paper.
The words "Socialite Training Class" were prominently printed on it.
Lu Jinghuai: "..."
He said that Wen Zhou always came up with bad ideas!
The two chatted for a while before preparing to leave.
As soon as I reached the door, I saw Wenxi and Shang Chen walking out of the elevator side by side, heading towards a Cantonese restaurant.
Lu Jinghuai, expressionless, reminded him: "Damn it."
Wen Zhou glanced at him coldly: "I'm not like you, I'm not blind."
While the two were talking, Wen Xi had already spotted Wen Zhou.
The presence of Wen Zhou and Lu Jinghuai was simply too outstanding.
Wenxi quickened her pace, leaving Shang Chen behind.
When she reached Wen Zhou, she subconsciously stopped and suppressed her surprise.
Wenxi calmly called out, "Brother."
Wen Zhou glanced at Wen Xi.
The brother and sister looked at each other, their emotions a mix of complex feelings.
So much has happened in just three months.
Wen Zhou was the first to raise his hand and pat Wen Xi's head like he did when they were children, saying earnestly, "It's a good thing."
Wenxi's eyes instantly stung with tears.
She knew what her brother was trying to say.
She is not the Wen family's biological daughter, which is a good thing.
Wenxi: "What good news? My brother is suddenly not my biological brother anymore."
Yan Zhao couldn't accept that she wasn't her parents' biological child, and Wen Xi couldn't accept that she and her brother, with whom she had depended on each other since childhood, weren't biological siblings.
Wen Zhou: "As long as you acknowledge me, I will always be your brother."
A faint blush appeared around Wenxi's cool and aloof eyebrows.
“When I returned to the Yan family, Yan Xu said that he only had one older sister, Yan Zhao, in his life.”
"It's a pity he ran too fast, otherwise I would have told him that I don't have a younger brother in my life, I only have an older brother."
Wen Zhou's expression softened noticeably.
"Come eat?"
Wenxi: "Mm."
After she finished replying, she realized that she had come with Shang Chen.
Wenxi turned her head and saw that Shang Chen had already walked to her side.
Wenxi took Shang Chen's arm and said, "Brother, I'm married. This is your brother-in-law, Shang Chen."
Shang Chen politely greeted, "Big Brother."
Wen Zhou nodded slightly and glanced at Shang Chen: "Mr. Shang, I've heard so much about you."
He had investigated Shang Chen's background before even returning home.
When I met him in person, he looked almost exactly like the person in the profile.
Just as taciturn, just as rigid and boring, like a work machine.
