Jing Yuan stared at Wen Chen’s back in a daze and suddenly muttered, “Men are indeed very heartless. They fall out with us just like that. It only takes a few minutes for Yuanyuan to become Miss Jing.’1
Seeing that she was in a bad state, Zhang Li could only let go of all her doubts and conflicts. She supported Jing Yuan and said, “Yuanyuan, let’s go back first. We’ll talk when we get home.”
Jing Yuan nodded and glanced at her with an inexplicable expression, making Zhang Li feel suffocated.
Did Jing Yuan look sarcastic?
But how was that possible? She must have seen it wrongly.
When Wen Chen returned home, only Cheng Wan was at home. Ji Wei, who came out of the Jing Family in advance, was not at home.
Cheng Wan was flipping through her photo album on the sofa. Seeing him return, she looked up in surprise. “It’s over so early?”
Wen Chen nodded tiredly. He looked depressed and there was a dark look in his eyes. “Mom, what do you think Jing Yuan and Jing Yao are like?”
Cheng Wan had just called her friends over to play mahjong at home. After her mahjong friends left, she sat on the sofa and flipped through the photo album, so she did not know that Weibo had already turned upside down.
However, when she heard Wen Chen’s question, she still said, “Yaoyao is cute. She looks soft, but she’s actually quite strong. It’s mainly because she doesn’t have any bad intentions and can distinguish right from wrong. As for Jing Yuan…”
Cheng Wan sighed and did not continue. She could see the two sisters clearly. She had tried to tell Wen Chen in the past, but Wen Chen had always been stubborn and only believed what he saw and heard.
She also felt very helpless about that. She trusted Jing Yao more, but her son didn’t like Jing Yao before. It was too late to say anything now.
“What happened to you at the Jing Family today?” Cheng Wan could not help but worry when she saw her son’s gloomy eyes and unprecedented dejected look.
Wen Chen looked up at Cheng Wan and said word by word, “Jing Yao is married to Liang Xun.”
Cheng Wan looked like she understood. “How did you know?”
Wen Chen instinctively replied, “It’s trending on Weibo.”
After saying that, he paused and suddenly looked at Cheng Wan in disbelief. “Mom doesn’t seem surprised at all?”
Cheng Wan said calmly, ”1 knew it the last time I saw Yaoyao. Liang Xun treats Yaoyao very well. The two of them… are very compatible.”
Wen Chen acted as if he didn’t know Cheng Wan. Cheng Wan clearly knew his feelings for Jing Yao, but she could say these words. Wen Chen felt as if he was being roasted on a stake when he heard from his biological mother that Jing Yao was very compatible with another man.
“Mom, why didn’t you tell me? Don’t you like Jing Yao very much and want her to be your daughter-in-law?” Wen Chen questioned.
Cheng Wan looked at him in disappointment. “I like Jing Yao and really hope that you can marry her, but I can’t selfishly ruin that child’s rare happiness just because I want to. You’re mostly responsible for the two of you getting to where you are today. Do you know that, Chen?”
Wen Chen pursed his lips and was speechless.
Cheng Wan said seriously, “Don’t you know how good she has been to you since you were young? She always remembers to give you a gift on your birthday every year. Her eyes lit up when she saw you when she was young. Anyone would be moved by what that child did, but you don’t seem to see it. For more than 10 years. Chen, how many decades can there be in life? Even if your heart is made of stone, it’s time for it to warm up. Human hearts are made of flesh. When she is disappointed enough, she should let go and leave.”
Wen Chen looked at Cheng Wan in pain. “Mom, I know I was wrong. I’ll apologize to Jing Yao.”
How could she not understand the son she had given birth to? Seeing that he was still unwilling to give up, Cheng Wan said in a low voice, “You’re not going to apologize to her. Instead, you will be causing trouble for them.”
Wen Chen pursed his thin lips into a straight line stubbornly.
Cheng Wan advised earnestly, “Chen, listen to my advice. Don’t do those ungentlemanly things. Let’s not talk about anything else. The Liang Corporation is not something we can provoke.”
Wen Chen’s breathing was a little heavy. “Jing Yao has liked me for more than 10 years. I don’t believe I’ll lose to Liang Xun. They’ve only known each other for three months.”
Cheng Wan frowned at him. Seeing that he was stubborn, her words became sharper. “What has this got to do with time? Have you made Yaoyao happy in more than 10 years? Although she has only known Liang Xun for more than three months, you can’t give her what Liang Xun can.”
Wen Chen did not reply to her. Instead, he asked, “Didn’t Ji Wei come back long ago? Where is he?”
Cheng Wan said, “He called and said that he won’t be coming back today.”
Wen Chen’s eyes darkened. He almost immediately understood where Ji Wei was. After all, it was Jing Yao’s birthday today..
