Chapter 20: The weird ex-boyfriend's mother comes to visit
After dinner, the two went upstairs to rest. When they were about to enter the bedroom, Wenxi called Mu Yansen.
"Mr. Mu, please take care of your brother when you have time."
"Yan Lin?"
Mu Yansen was confused. When did Yan Lin need his care?
Wenxi knew at a glance that Mu Yansen didn't care much about his younger brother, so much so that he didn't even know that something was wrong with his younger brother recently.
He explained, "Mu Yanlin has been a little off lately. I talked to him today. He said the college entrance exam is coming up and he's under a lot of pressure. Please counsel him and help him take the pressure off."
"Are you sure he's stressed out because of the upcoming college entrance exam?"
"Yes, he said it himself."
Mu Yansen had a hunch that the boy was hiding something from them. Would a man from the Mu family be so stressed out by the college entrance exam? What a joke! He had to find time to ask him what was going on.
After saying this, Wenxi went back to the house to rest.
The next day, Sun Hong came to the Taekwondo gym to find Wenxi. Wenxi was surprised. They should have no interactions anymore, so why did she look for her?
Sun Hong, dressed in a lady's attire, looked at Wenxi uncomfortably, "Wenxi, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you."
He was still so arrogant, saying that he had something to say to Wenxi, but his eyes were full of contempt.
"Sorry, I'm busy right now."
Sun Hong was unhappy. "Aren't you free now? It's just a few words. Why are you so arrogant? I almost became your mother-in-law, and you treat me like this?"
Wenxi smiled and looked up at her. "You said you almost became my mother-in-law, so you're not my mother-in-law anymore. Why should I be polite to you? Besides, I'm really busy and I have classes coming up soon. I won't like what you say. I don't want to teach my students in a bad mood. I'd be letting them down."
Sun Hong never expected that the man who used to be so cold and aloof, and who was quite obedient in front of her, always doing whatever she asked him to do and never saying much, would now be so sharp-tongued and eloquent. She felt so upset that she couldn't get over it and was extremely uncomfortable.
If it weren't for her stubborn son, she wouldn't have looked at her face.
After a moment's thought, he spoke without caring whether Wenxi wanted to listen or not, "After Xu Sunzi found out about your marriage, he's been devastated. Now he doesn't even go to the company anymore. He either locks himself up at home or goes to the bar to get drunk. He's incredibly decadent. I only have this one son, and we were counting on him to inherit the family business. With him like this, what's going to happen to our Xu family in the future? My son is like this because of you. Go and talk him down and cheer him up."
Wenxi found it funny. Why should she care about a cheating ex-boyfriend?
"Auntie, aren't you very powerful? Xu Sun dares not disobey you, so please persuade me. Back then, you said that I couldn't live in the house on Huaihai Road, and he did it. You said that we had to sign a prenuptial agreement after marriage and that I couldn't take anything from your house with me after the divorce, and he also persuaded me to compromise. You said that I had to live with my in-laws after marriage, and he agreed."
"What an obedient son! If you can't persuade him, I don't think anyone can."
Sun Hong's face turned green, but she still maintained the dignity and elegance of a lady.
"Are you holding a grudge against me for not giving you the house? Are you holding a grudge against us for making you sign a prenuptial agreement? Wenxi, don't you see how you came from? And your father's family is full of eccentricities. We shouldn't be on guard against you, okay? With a family like ours, you've already married above your station. It's normal for you to take some self-protective measures."
"Well, you're right. It's normal for me, an ex, not to counsel your son."
She wasn't particularly interested in their house or property, but Xu Sun always listened to his mother in many matters, always putting her in a difficult position. At the time, she had feelings for Xu Sun and didn't care about it. She was also very proud and felt that she could earn a house on her own.
But now thinking about it, it was so fucking frustrating at that time. She was determined to marry a mama's boy.
"Wenxi, don't think I really want you to see my son. I'm letting you go now because I'm giving you face."
Wenxi was really speechless, "Don't give me face, I won't go to see Xu Sun."
Chen Fei came over and called her, "Wenxi, it's your class time, go quickly! The students are waiting."
He blinked at Wenxi. Wenxi immediately understood that Chen Fei was here to rescue her.
Wenxi stood up and walked inside, and Sun Hong stomped her feet in anger behind him.
Fade Chen followed him in and couldn't help but complain, "Wenxi, Xu Sun's mother is so weird. It's a good thing you didn't marry him. My scalp tingles just listening to him. How did you endure it back then? Fortunately, you're out of this misery now. I was sweating for you."
Chen Fei comes from a well-off family with a good family atmosphere. I have never seen such a person before. Today I was really enlightened.
When Wenxi talks about this relationship now, she is much calmer and her mood is stable. She thinks she has let it go.
He smiled at Fade Chen and said, "Yes, I'm lucky!"
After work, Lin Huizi called her to ask her out for dinner. She had just flown back from another place.
It is said that she and Lin Huizi were college classmates. They didn't get along at first, but after understanding each other's temperament, their relationship became better and better.
"Xiaoxi, this hot pot restaurant is super popular. Their tripe is delicious. Eat more."
Wenxi didn't bother to be polite with her and started eating. "Mm, delicious, the tripe is very fresh."
"Hui Hui, how have you been doing since you went to Desert Media? I've been busy lately and haven't had time to ask you."
"Well, although this company has only been established in the past two years, its owner is Lin Mo, the crown prince of the Lin Group. With the support of the Lin Group, it has no shortage of resources. However, there are many models in the company, and the competition is fierce. I have to work harder than before, otherwise I won't be able to get good resources."
"Hui Hui, keep going, I will always support you!"
She couldn't help Huihui, she could only cheer her up.
Lin Huizi clinked her glass with hers and said with a smile, "Thank you, dear Xiaoxi baby!"
"By the way, Xiaoxi, when you went back that night, did Mu Yansen give you any trouble?"
"No, he even brought me some ice."
Lin Huizi smelled the scent of adultery.
"Wow! Mr. Mu is so considerate, could it be that he has developed feelings for you?"
Wenxi rolled her eyes. "Impossible! She has someone she likes. Mr. Mu is a very nice person. Even though we are just business partners, he treats me very well and has helped me many times."
Lin Huizi looked at Wenxi deeply and said, "Xiaoxi, since you know she has someone she likes, you must protect yourself and don't let yourself get caught up in it. You will be the one who gets hurt."
Wenxi gave her a reassuring smile and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen. When the one-year period is up, we will divorce and return to our own lives."
Wang Manli, who was sitting at the next table, opened her eyes wide. Oh my god! She had accidentally heard some shocking news.
