At this point, Shen Wenran had a sudden inspiration and took the initiative to grab Lu Jinghuai's arm.
“Honey, these past few years, when you were lying in bed, Anwen and I went shopping together, and she always paid for everything.”
Lu Jinghuai's gaze darkened, and he said in a calm voice, "So?"
"So, honey, could you give me some money?"
"For the past three years, I left the entertainment industry for you, not only without any income, but also paying a lot of breach of contract fees..."
—It's true that I'm leaving the industry, it's true that I'm paying breach of contract fees, and it's true that I have no income.
—But not for you.
Lu Jinghuai didn't want to listen to her rambling on any longer, so he took a card out of his pocket.
"Take it."
Shen Wenran: "!!!"
—Has that jerk taken the wrong medicine? How can he be so generous?
—If I remember correctly, the novel describes the male protagonist's supreme gold card, which allows him to spend several million at a time.
—Waaaaah, who would have thought that I, a nobody with less than five figures in savings, would be in this situation today?
"unnecessary?"
Lu Jinghuai closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing his inner anger as he asked.
"Yes, of course I want it, thank you, honey!"
After saying this, Shen Wenran hugged his head, kissed him on the forehead, and then hummed a song as she went out.
Lu Jinghuai: "..."
...
An hour later, Shen Wenran met Luo Anwen at a coffee shop near the mall.
Upon seeing Luo Anwen, Shen Wenran couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Luo Anwen truly lives up to her reputation as a trendsetter in the entertainment industry; this outfit makes her look like she's walking the runway.
She couldn't help but ask, "Anwen, we're going shopping. Aren't you tired wearing such high heels?"
Luo Anwen sat down opposite her, took off her sunglasses and put them aside, saying, "Of course I'm tired, but what can I do? It looks good."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the shoes that were heavy and warm under the table.
"With those chunky low heels of yours, just buy a new pair and throw these away. Isn't that tacky?"
Shen Wenran quickly refused: "No, you're used to it, but I can't. If I wore such high heels, I definitely wouldn't be able to walk."
"Fine, fine, whatever you say."
While stirring her coffee, Luo Anwen asked, "What's wrong? Did you two have a fight?"
"Argued? No, we didn't."
Thinking that Luo Anwen might have misunderstood, Shen Wenran took out the exclusive gold card that Lu Jinghuai had given her from her bag and waved it: "See? Lu Jinghuai gave it to me. Use it however you like today, it's on me."
Over the past three years, she has indeed spent a lot of money on Luo Anwen.
Luo Anwen scoffed again.
"He gave it to you willingly?"
Shen Wenran said, "No, I asked for it. I didn't expect it to be given to me so easily."
Ah, if she had known it would be this easy, she should have wanted it sooner.
Luo Anwen sighed again: "Silly girl, there's no such thing as a free lunch; you know that."
Shen Wenran nodded: "Go ahead."
Luo Anwen continued, "I heard that Ye Nanxing is holding a jewelry appraisal event tomorrow, and your man will be attending?"
Shen Wenran nodded and answered truthfully, "Yes, my mother-in-law is going too."
"And what about you?"
Luo Anwen countered with a question.
Shen Wenran thought for a moment and immediately understood what Luo Anwen meant, but she still said truthfully, "I have something to do tomorrow and can't go."
"Your mother-in-law and husband went to your first love's jewelry appreciation event, but left you alone at home. They even gave you money to go shopping. Is that all it takes to soothe your wounded heart?"
"Shen Wenran, Shen Wenran, it's one thing to waste three years of your youth for a man like this, but you want to waste your whole life too?"
"He's clearly having a secret rendezvous with his lover, leaving you at home."
Shen Wenran had already confirmed it in her heart.
—An Wen, you're really something, you saw right through me!
—You don't understand, only when a scoundrel secretly meets his mistress, the two of them ignite the flames of love, and then naturally get together, do I have a chance to get a divorce.
But she put on a nervous expression.
"No, Jinghuai, Jinghuai isn't like that. He's different from other men."
Luo Anwen shook her head, took a sip of coffee, and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You'll understand my happiness once you experience it yourself. I'm going to take this call."
"Yeah, honey, it's me. Oh, nothing much, just shopping with my girlfriends, and I was thinking you didn't have anything planned for today..."
"Mmm, I'm at the Emperor Mall, waiting for you, mua~"
After hanging up the phone, Luo Anwen looked at Shen Wenran, who was looking surprised, and began to explain.
"Let me show you the guy I just called. He's totally the 'little wolf dog' type, 185cm tall, 80kg, all muscle, but he's the type who looks slim in clothes but is muscular when undressed."
"This is the photo. Look, isn't he handsome?"
As Luo Anwen spoke, she pulled up a contact from her WeChat and tapped on their profile picture.
Inside was indeed a clean-cut, sunny-looking young man with a buzz cut.
The young man's smile had a hint of slyness; he was clearly the type who knew how to win a girl's heart.
Shen Wenran suppressed her envy, her face remaining calm and composed.
"He's handsome, but too young and not mature enough."
"Steady and composed? Ha!"
Luo Anwen smiled and said, "You're still too naive. It's younger men like this who are more interesting. Old men like Lu Jinghuai are so boring. When you're looking for a partner, you should find someone like this."
"Also, what do you think I called him here for? He's just here to carry bags. The two of us are just responsible for being beautiful."
Luo Anwen said she was there to carry her bag, and she really was there to carry her bag.
