Chapter 207 - 207: Wen Jin, We’re Divorced!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Yu Anwan was Professor Grace, and naturally, her team was involved in pharmaceutical research and development.
The topic of their new cold medicine naturally came up.
“Yes,” Wen Jin accepted it without any hint of refusal.
Afterward, Wen Jin simply broke open the aluminum-plastic packaging and swallowed the pill.
Yu Anwan remained speechless.
He didn’t seem concerned about her possibly poisoning him.
“Why are you suddenly concerned about me? If I die, won’t you conveniently gain custody of Zhanyan?” Wen Jin asked, seemingly in good spirits after taking the medicine.
Yu Anwan chuckled. “President Wen, you’re overthinking it. If you were to die here, I’d be the prime suspect. Not only would I not gain custody, I might even face a lawsuit. Besides, Zhanyan isn’t in the best health. I’m worried your ailing condition might infect him, which would be even more troublesome.” Yu Anwan completely dismissed any semblance of genuine concern.
Wen Jin simply laughed and didn’t respond.
This version of Wen Jin was far removed from the brash and aggressive demeanor of their initial meeting. Instead, he appeared much more refined and composed, leaving Yu Anwan unable to find any room for argument.
As Yu Anwan continued to feel uneasy sharing the same space with Wen Jin, she eventually decided to leave the room.
Wen Jin, probably feeling genuinely unwell, didn’t stop her. He remained seated, watching Yu Anwan play happily with the two children.
Wen Jin couldn’t help but smile. Even at this age, when she played, she was still as carefree as ever. Her smile was radiant, not much different from the 18 -year-old Yu Anwan.
Wen Jin picked up his phone and quietly captured a photo of the scene in the small courtyard before resuming his calm demeanor.
It wasn’t until Cai Shufang called them for lunch that Yu Anwan, leading her children, made her way to the dining room and reminded them to wash their hands.
For a moment, Wen Jin observed this scene and felt as though they had never been apart.
And perhaps, between them, it should have always been this way.
This thought caused Wen Jin to lower his gaze, and his eyes darkened.
Afterward, Wen Jin remained silent.
After lunch, Cai Shufang was feeling a bit tired and decided to rest.
Yu Anwan had put her children to sleep, and Wen Jin showed no intention of leaving. He didn’t object to Yu Anwan spending time with “Wen Zhanyan”. Yu Anwan was growing increasingly puzzled by Wen Jin’s actions.
What exactly was Wen Jin planning?
However, this time, even before Yu Anwan could voice her thoughts, Wen Jin took the initiative. “I’ll pick you up and take you back to Jiang City.”
“Why?” Yu Anwan furrowed her brow.
She was indeed returning to Jiang City, but why did Wen Jin feel the need to pick her up?
Wen Jin remained composed. “Grandfather has returned from the capital. He specifically asked for you and Zhanyan to pick him up.”
Yu Anwan fell silent.
“He probably knows about your identity as Professor Grace. Grandfather is a very astute man. He wouldn’t fail to figure it out. Besides, he has always liked you. After all, you are Zhanyan’s biological mother.”
In other words, all these years, Wen Zhanming had been opposed to Wen Jin’s relationship with Lu Nanxin, in part because of Yu Anwan.
However, Wen Jin couldn’t quite comprehend why Wen Zhanming held such a deep affection for Yu Anwan. If Yu Anwan hadn’t remained so unobtrusive all these years, Wen Zhanming would never have relented. After all, the Wen family couldn’t afford to leave the position of Mrs. Wen vacant.
In the end, just as everything seemed to be coming to a close, Yu Anwan unexpectedly threw a curveball, catching everyone off guard.
It was indeed a twist of fate.
Wen Jin was repelled by Yu Anwan’s appearance, but he couldn’t deny the restlessness in his heart.
It was an indescribable feeling. He seemed to hate Yu Anwan to the bone, but there seemed to be a strange emotion in this hatred.
Just like how Wen Jin’s calm world collapsed after Yu Anwan’s appearance.
It was a feeling that he didn’t know how to satisfy.
Wen Jin had never felt like this before. He felt like he had just turned 20 and was full of vigor. He knew how to savor such things.
However, apart from Yu Anwan, Wen Jin did not react to any other woman.
His heart was like a pool of stagnant water, unmoving.
When Yu Anwan heard Wen Jin’s words, she lowered her head and sneered. “So what? Wen Jin, don’t forget that we’re divorced. When we divorced, Grandpa didn’t say anything.”
Yu Anwan didn’t avoid Wen Jin’s gaze.
The divorce that she initiated had made Wen Zhanming lose face to a certain extent.
Wen Zhanming had always known that Wen Jin wanted a divorce because Wen
Jin wanted to give Lu Nanxin a spot. However, Wen Zhanming had never liked Lu Nanxin. He felt that Lu Nanxin was pretentious and insincere. She was not completely devoted to the Wen family but had other motives.
Because of this matter, Wen Zhanming and Wen Jin had many arguments.
Especially on New Year’s Eve every year, after Wen Jin accompanied Wen Zhanming, he ignored Wen Zhanming’s objections and even left the Wen family’s vigil. He directly flew to the United States to accompany Lu Nanxin for the Chinese New Year.
Coincidentally, taking into account the time difference, when Wen Jin arrived, she was already keeping vigil with Lu Nanxin.
Their relationship was so close that Lu Nanxin felt cherished in Wen Jin’s hands.
Yu Anwan was the only one keeping Wen Zhanming company during the vigil.
Therefore, Wen Zhanming never thought that Yu Anwan would take the initiative to ask for a divorce to help Wen Jin and Lu Nanxin.
After all, Lu Nanxin was back.
It wasn’t that Wen Zhanming hadn’t tried to persuade her, but Yu Anwan had rejected him. After that, Wen Zhanming didn’t say anything else.
Yu Anwan also knew that Wen Zhanming was disappointed in her.
However, Yu Anwan knew very well that Wen Zhanming did not like her. It was just that compared to Lu Nanxin, Wen Zhanming was more willing to look at
Yu Anwan. That was all.
Wen Zhanming was only angry because his tools were gone.
Yu Anwan knew very well that the Wen family was heartless.
Heh…
“How do you know Grandfather didn’t tell you?” Wen Jin suddenly asked Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan was stunned by Wen Jin’s question and was a little surprised.
Wen Jin suddenly laughed lightly and said self-deprecatingly, “After you left, Grandpa called me back and lectured me for a long time. Later, when you caused a scene in the newspaper, I was furious, but Grandpa only scolded me for what I deserved.’
This was also something Wen Jin did not expect.
He didn’t expect Wen Zhanming to like Yu Anwan to this extent.
He had always thought that Wen Zhanming was just using Yu Anwan to make Lu Nanxin give up.
Wen Zhanming would instead allow the illegitimate daughter of the Yu family to be Mrs. Wen than allow Lu Nanxin to marry into the Wen family.
It was only at this moment that Wen Jin truly realized that Wen Zhanming truly liked Yu Anwan.
Even Wen Zhanming felt pain when it came to Wen Zhanyan.
Wen Jin knew that it was not only because Wen Zhanyan was a child of the Wen family, but also because he was Yu Anwan’s son..
