These words were like a death knell, making Li Ruo's body even stiffer.
Before even reaching the dining table, she made an excuse to slip away to the bathroom.
At that moment, her mind was in complete turmoil. After washing her face and calming down, she hesitantly went out the door.
Unexpectedly, halfway there, someone pulled him into a corner.
In the dim light, Wen Huaiyan stared intently at her.
Li Ruo panicked a little and couldn't help but glance outside, asking nervously, "Aren't you afraid of being seen?"
Wen Huaiyan snorted coldly: "Do you think I would do something so uncertain?"
At that moment, Grandpa Wen and Wen Zhi were discussing the company's projects, and no one was paying any attention to them.
"Can……"
Li Ruo frowned, still somewhat worried.
Before she could finish speaking, the man coldly interrupted her: "Tell me, why are you here?"
Faced with Wen Huaiyan's questioning, Li Ruo's red lips parted slightly, and she hesitated even more, unsure whether she should tell him the truth.
Having spent so much time together, she had come to understand Wen Huaiyan's personality to some extent.
If they knew the truth, they would probably cause a huge uproar.
But seeing her reaction, Wen Huaiyan already knew: "Wen Changfeng brought you here, didn't he?"
Li Ruo's eyes widened instantly, and she asked incredulously, "How did you know?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Huaiyan couldn't help but sneer: "It seems that's really true."
"you…"
Seeing the man's reaction, Li Ruo realized that she had been tricked into revealing information.
But now that the truth has been revealed, there's no need for her to deny it anymore. She explained, "Wen Changfeng said that Grandpa Wen wanted to see me, so I agreed to come. Don't misunderstand."
Wen Huaiyan was taken aback, and his face instantly darkened: "You believe him just because he says so? What if he's lying to you?"
yes……
When Li Ruo came to her senses, she realized that she really shouldn't have trusted Wen Changfeng so easily.
But at the time, he threatened her with Wen Huaiyan, so she had no choice.
However, she did not think things through and did not take the initiative to explain.
Thinking of this, Li Ruo sighed and apologized, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."
Wen Huaiyan glanced at her: "Is an apology enough?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo thought he was implying that she should take the initiative.
Her face flushed slightly. She glanced around instinctively, and after making sure no one was around, she quickly kissed Wen Huaiyan on the cheek. Then she gently shook his arm and whispered coquettishly, "Please forgive me for this first offense, okay?"
But Wen Huaiyan didn't seem to buy it, and said expressionlessly, "Not good."
Now, Li Ruo was completely anxious. She frowned and asked, "Then what do you want?"
Wen Huaiyan twitched the corner of his mouth and said casually, "If you want me to forgive you, you have to agree to some conditions."
"What are the conditions?"
Li Ruo was taken aback and stared straight at him.
“From now on, you have to report everything you do to me. I need to know your whereabouts 24 hours a day. Also, you must be home before 11 p.m. every night.”
After saying these words, Wen Huaiyan turned and left, clearly not giving her a chance to refuse.
Although Li Ruo was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept that the man was now her sugar daddy.
So she could only purse her lips and suppress her dissatisfaction.
...
At the dinner table.
Halfway through the meal, Old Master Wen turned his gaze to Wen Changfeng and asked in front of everyone, "Changfeng, have you thought about what I told you before the meal? When have you decided to marry Ruoruo?"
Upon hearing this again, Li Ruo almost spat out the food in her mouth and couldn't help but cough twice.
Wen Huaiyan, standing to the side, glanced coldly at the little woman opposite him, and felt a strange sense of irritation rising in his heart.
Before Wen Changfeng could speak, he snorted coldly: "Grandpa, I think you're overthinking it. He spends all his time in nightclubs, deceiving women's feelings. He doesn't seem like someone who wants to get married at all. Aren't you making things difficult for him by asking him that?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Changfeng was immediately enraged.
He glanced at the old man's gloomy expression and retorted, "Cousin, you're going too far. When have I ever deceived a woman's feelings? Don't make baseless accusations."
Wen Huaiyan sneered: "No? Then how come I heard that you forced a woman to have an abortion, and even drove her to a mental hospital? And those shady women in nightclubs, I think you've had financial disputes with more than one of them, right? Do you want me to list them for you?"
"you!"
Wen Changfeng was shocked to find that Wen Huaiyan knew so much about his affairs, and even revealed these scandalous matters in front of Old Master Wen. He was so angry that he trembled.
But when she met the man's cold gaze, a surge of anger suddenly welled up inside her, and she couldn't vent it.
After all, everything Wen Huaiyan said was true.
He could previously play dumb to fool the old man, but he couldn't escape his cousin's eyes.
If he really angers the other party and they say something they shouldn't, wouldn't the old man beat him to death?
Seeing that Wen Changfeng was in an awkward position, Old Master Wen frowned, though he was angry at the boy's improper behavior.
But after all, he was the one who first brought up the idea of marriage, so Wen Huaiyan's words were undoubtedly a denial of his decision.
