Chapter 370 Does He Really Have a Heart?



"Sometimes I even wonder if you, as a woman, have a heart at all."

After a long while, Wen Huaiyan finally spoke, his voice unusually dry and barely audible in the wind.

However, after listening, Li Ruo couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, and her expression turned icy again.

She suddenly raised her head, and upon closer inspection, one could even discern a hint of aggressiveness in her expression.

"Do I have a heart? Shouldn't you ask yourself that question? Did I force you to get engaged to Fu Zhiqing?"

Hearing her question, which contained a hint of anger, Wen Huaiyan's eyes flickered slightly, and he sighed silently.

Perhaps sensing the change in the man's gaze, Li Ruo immediately shifted her gaze to the other side of the parking lot.

At this moment, the dim yellow lights shone on the road not far away, and every now and then two cars would whiz by.

After a long pause, Wen Huaiyan suddenly spoke: "Are you angry?"

"laugh."

Li Ruo's heart skipped a beat, but she remained outwardly defiant: "Why should I be angry? Shouldn't your fiancée be the one who's angry? Now that you've taken me away, she'll probably be angry when she sees you're not here."

Hearing the somewhat sarcastic tone in her voice, Wen Huaiyan took a deep breath and asked the same question again: "Why did you come here?"

"What else could it be?"

At this moment, Li Ruo had completely calmed down and folded her sleeves: "Of course I came here to see the joke."

That's right...

She did it just to see a joke, and for no other reason.

Wen Huaiyan, having failed to get the answer she wanted time and time again, became somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.

He took a step closer, standing right in front of Li Ruo, his fierce eyes flashing with fury: "Have you ever cared about me at all?! How can you be so cold-hearted? Even a piece of iron would have warmed up by now after being held for so long."

Yes, it wasn't until this moment that he had to admit it.

He had indeed fallen for the woman in front of him.

It's just a pity...

Seeing the man's furious expression and recalling what he had done before, Li Ruo's heart gradually turned cold, and her expression became increasingly indifferent: "Is that so? Don't you know what you did before? Besides, you are now going to marry into the Fu family, which is a perfect match for them. Isn't this a win-win situation?"

She didn't understand why Wen Huaiyan was acting like he was heartbroken.

It was he who locked himself up first.

The wind was blowing harder and harder.

The two people are very close, but they always feel like they are thousands of miles apart.

Wen Huaiyan wanted to get close to Li Ruo, but he was also afraid that she would run away again.

The two maintained a distance from each other, like two parallel lines, unable to get closer.

Li Ruo straightened her clothes, took a step back to increase the distance between them, and slowly said, "You'd better not come near me, lest someone call me a vixen again. After all, after a while, people will inevitably get annoyed."

This was the first time Wen Huaiyan had heard her complain with such resentment. He was somewhat surprised and frowned: "Who called you a vixen?"

"Who else could it be?"

Li Ruo chuckled lightly, a hint of mockery in her eyes: "Who else could it be but your dear sister? Didn't you see how much she hated me before, how she wished she could tear me apart?"

She had never mentioned this to Wen Huaiyan before, simply because she felt it was unnecessary.

But now, even though she and Wen Huaiyan have separated, Wen Zhi is still relentlessly pursuing her.

Do you really think she's easy to bully?

Hearing her accusations, Wen Huaiyan was stunned, and his expression immediately turned cold.

He never imagined that Wen Zhi would cause trouble for Li Ruo behind his back.

After a moment of silence, Li Ruo spoke again: "Let's leave it at that, so as to avoid any unpleasant rumors. I still have my pride. If I can't afford to offend them, can't I at least avoid them?"

After saying that, she didn't look at the man in front of her again and quickly turned and left.

Watching Li Ruo's retreating figure, Wen Huaiyan clenched his fist before heading towards the hotel without saying a word.

Little did he know that the moment he turned around, Li Ruo, who had been so aggressive, suddenly stopped and cautiously turned back.

After realizing that no one was there, she covered her face, raised her head slightly, and sighed.

Just now, Wen Huaiyan's repeated questioning even gave her a kind of illusion.

It's as if that man really likes me!

Just as she lowered her hand and prepared to drive away from this troublesome place, she noticed a person standing under a street lamp not far away.

To be precise, it was a man wearing a trench coat and a mask, so his face was not clearly visible.

Feeling the gaze fixed on her, Li Ruo frowned.

The other person seemed to sense her confusion and suddenly stepped over.

Li Ruo narrowed her eyes slightly and tightened her grip on the bag strap.

As the man drew closer, Li Ruo paused for a moment, then recognized him instantly.

It was the man who had been talking to Wen Changfeng in the corner of the hotel earlier.

What does he want to do?

Confused, Li Ruo subconsciously pursed her red lips but did not speak.

Soon, the man had approached.

Seeing that he was only one step away from her, Li Ruo's expression became increasingly tense.

Fortunately, the man didn't do anything else, but tilted his head and asked, "President Li?"
