As she comforted the minister, a glint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes.
Perhaps she has figured out a way to deal with Li Ruo!
Having made up her mind, Wen Zhi deliberately brought up Wen Changfeng in front of Old Master Wen as soon as she got home.
"Grandpa, as far as I know, my cousin has been spending all his time in nightclubs lately, rarely home, and completely neglecting his company. If this continues, I'm really worried that his projects will fall through. After all, projects are tough to run these days, and there are so many people eyeing them!"
Hearing this, Old Master Wen frowned, clearly a little angry: "That brat Wen Changfeng is still so unreliable. Does he even want to keep his job? If not, get out of here!"
Seeing that things were going as she had expected, Wen Zhi couldn't help but smile and quickly advised, "Oh dear, Grandpa, you can't say that. My cousin is still a member of the Wen family, isn't he? If you kick him out of the Wen family, won't there be rumors circulating outside that there is discord within our family?"
Hearing this, Old Master Wen sighed helplessly: "Zhizhi, I know you mean well, but if that kid keeps wasting his time like this, he'll squander all the business he has sooner or later!"
These words were exactly what Wen Zhi wanted to hear, and she quickly followed up, saying, "Grandpa, you and I both know my cousin's temperament. The more you force him, the more he resists. I was thinking that if he had a woman by his side, maybe he would behave himself."
"That makes sense."
Grandpa Wen nodded: "It's good to have a woman keep an eye on him, so he won't keep going to nightclubs all the time. Right... I remember he's engaged to a girl from the Li family. Why don't we move it forward? It's better to get married and settle things sooner rather than later."
The old man is a man of action; he always does what he thinks of.
As he spoke, he immediately made a phone call to Wen Changfeng.
At that moment, Wen Changfeng was comforting Li Rao when he received the call from the old man and was almost startled: "Grandpa, is there something you need?"
“Bring Li Ruo back for dinner tomorrow.”
Wen Changfeng was taken aback. Although he was a little confused, he dared not disobey the old man and immediately replied, "Yes, Grandpa."
Li Rao overheard their conversation and stormed over as soon as Wen Changfeng hung up the phone.
"Wen Changfeng, what do you mean? Are you trying to have your cake and eat it too? Didn't you say you wanted to tell the old man about us as soon as possible? But why did the old man still ask you to take Li Ruo back? Don't you want to take responsibility for us, mother and child?"
She questioned him hysterically while angrily grabbing at Wen Changfeng's collar.
Looking at her distorted face, a hint of disgust flashed in Wen Changfeng's eyes, but he still patiently coaxed her, "Okay, baby, don't be angry. Of course, you're the only one in my heart. But Grandpa doesn't know about this. If I rashly tell him that you're pregnant, he will definitely be angry and think that we acted first and informed him later. We need to think things through carefully and can't rush things."
As he spoke, he pulled her into his arms again: "I was just giving him a perfunctory answer earlier. Tomorrow I'll just make up some excuse and say that Li Ruo isn't going."
Hearing this, Li Rao felt a little better and touched her belly, saying, "This time, you can't lie to me again."
No, it won't.
Wen Changfeng patted her head, but his expression grew increasingly cold.
After saying goodbye to Li Rao, he hurriedly called Li Ruo.
At that time, Li Ruo had just come out of the hospital. When she saw the name flashing on the screen, her first reaction was to hang up.
But fearing that this guy might cause some trouble, I thought about it and answered the call anyway.
"Ms. Li is really busy with work; it took her so long to answer the phone."
Li Ruo rolled her eyes: "What's up?"
Wen Changfeng didn't bother with any more words and said directly, "Grandpa wants to see you and wants me to take you back tomorrow."
"You'll take me back?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ru snorted coldly and said without thinking, "I'm not going."
She had long wanted to sever ties with this man, so why would she willingly offer herself up?
But Wen Changfeng seemed to have already guessed that she would refuse. He wasn't worried at all. Instead, he said calmly, "If you don't come back with me, I'll tell Grandpa about you and Wen Huaiyan."
Li Ruo was somewhat dismissive, and snorted coldly, "So what? Old Master Wen probably doesn't know about your affair with Li Rao, does he?"
At worst, both sides will suffer heavy losses.
Moreover, judging from Wen Changfeng's previous reactions, he seemed more afraid that Old Master Wen would find out about Li Rao's pregnancy, and that he probably didn't want to marry that woman at all.
However, this time, Li Ruo guessed wrong.
A soft scoff came from Wen Changfeng on the other end of the phone: "Li Ruo, you're oversimplifying things. My little problem is nothing compared to Wen Huaiyan's."
Li Ruo frowned, wondering what he meant, when she heard his increasingly flippant tone: "The old man is currently considering whether to hand over all his power to Wen Huaiyan. If your affair with him is exposed and it affects the Wen family, the old man might change his mind. Think about it yourself!"
