It was the Wen family’s famous asset, quite influential.
Regardless of whether it was Wen Zhanming or Wen Jin, once they had made up their minds, they couldn’t change it, no matter what.
It was absurd, truly absurd.
Wen Jin stood there with one hand in his pocket, seemingly not reacting much to Wen Zhanming’s words, maintaining his composure.
It was unclear whether he agreed or had other thoughts.
“Wanwan, this matter is settled,” Wen Zhanming said straightforwardly.
After being quiet for a long time, Yu Anwan suddenly spoke up, addressing
Wen Zhanming calmly, “Grandpa.”
Wen Zhanming looked at Yu Anwan, furrowing his brows slightly, and appeared somewhat serious. However, he didn’t interrupt her and listened attentively to what she had to say.
“Thank you for liking me, but I’m very sorry. It’s true that I want custody of Zhanyan, but I have no intention of remarrying Wen Jin. I have someone I want to marry, and I’ve been let down before, so I don’t want to let others down,” Yu Anwan expressed her intentions clearly.
She looked directly at Wen Zhanming without averting her gaze or showing any avoidance.
Wen Zhanming remained silent and didn’t say a word. The kind expression he had earlier was replaced with a more subdued demeanor.
“So, Grandpa, I’m sorry to disappoint you,” Yu Anwan reiterated her stance. Yu Anwan didn’t add anything further and nodded politely.
As Wen Jin listened to Yu Anwan’s words, his eyes darkened, and he kept his gaze fixed on Yu Anwan without blinking.
However, Yu Anwan chose to ignore Wen Jin. Her concern was more focused on Wen Zhanming, as she anticipated that he might face a difficult situation.
Compared to Wen Jin, Wen Zhanming was even harder to deal with.
In the end, Wen Zhanming’s response surprised Yu Anwan. He nodded and sighed, “That’s true. This kind of thing isn’t something an old man like me can decide.”
It was unclear whether this was an agreement or something else, but when he looked at Yu Anwan, Wen Zhanming appeared to be more emotional.
Yu Anwan didn’t say anything further and simply nodded politely. Then, her gaze shifted to Wen Zhanyan.
Wen Zhanyan remained silent and allowed Yu Anwan to gaze at him.
“Zhanyan, be good,” Yu Anwan smiled as if she were coaxing him, and their gazes silently communicated in the air.
Wen Zhanyan’s lips curled up slightly, indicating that he was in a good mood.
“I’ll be leaving first, then?” Yu Anwan waved her hand.
“Uh-huh,” Wen Zhanyan did not object.
Yu Anwan stood up and addressed Wen Zhanming, “Grandpa, I’ll be leaving now.”
Yu Anwan didn’t say anything further and turned to leave the Wen family mansion. However, she didn’t glance at Wen Jin throughout the entire departure, as if she had completely disregarded his presence.
Under these circumstances, Wen Jin’s demeanor became somewhat complex.
He simply stood in place, appearing to have little reaction to Yu Anwan’s actions.
However, as Yu Anwan walked past Wen Jin, he grabbed her hand in front of everyone. His deep gaze focused on Yu Anwan, and his voice lowered.
“Who gave you permission to leave?” Wen Jin asked each word deliberately.
Yu Anwan felt a strong grip on her wrist, and red marks immediately appeared on her fair skin, causing her to frown.
Was Wen Jin, this despicable man, trying to break her hand?
“President Wen, let go,” Yu Anwan said coldly.
Wen Jin’s eyes remained fixed on Yu Anwan. “What if I don’t?”
Yu Anwan didn’t respond with words but continued to gaze at him. However, her expression suddenly transformed into a half-smile, with a touch of teasing.
This reaction made Wen Jin furrow his brows.
Yu Anwan didn’t bother to struggle any further. With her free hand, she lightly brushed off the nonexistent dust on Wen Jin’s body. She asked, “President Wen, are you sure you won’t let go?”
Wen Jin appeared somewhat puzzled.
Wen Zhanyan, standing by the side, coughed lightly. It was unclear if he couldn’t bear to watch anymore or if he was reminding Wen Jin.
Wen Zhanming remained silent but had already adopted a cold expression as if he were looking at someone he found extremely distasteful.
Wen Jin furrowed his brow and directed his words at Wen Zhanyan, saying, “Wen Zhanyan, usually when your mommy isn’t around, you make a fuss about wanting her back. Now, your mommy is leaving, and you’re letting her go so easily?”
Wen Zhanyan responded with a casual tone, “Daddy has the capability. What difference does it make relying on me?”
Wen Jin was left speechless by Wen Zhanyan’s retort.
The people standing nearby stifled their laughter.
Wen Jin’s expression grew even darker.
It was only then that Yu Anwan calmly spoke up, “President Wen, Miss Lu is here. Is it appropriate for you to be entangled with your ex-wife in front of your fiancee and future in-laws?”
These words made Wen Jin look towards the entrance of the mansion.
The butler stood awkwardly, accompanied by Lu Chongming and Lu Nanxin.
Lu Chongming’s expression had turned extremely unpleasant. Lu Nanxin remained in her spot, biting her lip. Though she didn’t say anything, her eyes were filled with a sense of grievance as she looked at Wen Jin.
It seemed as though if Wen Jin dared to chase after Yu Anwan, Lu Nanxin might confront him right then and there.
Yu Anwan had already used the opportunity to withdraw her hand from Wen
Jin’s grasp.
Then, Yu Anwan left the mansion without looking back.
However, the moment Yu Anwan stepped outside, a brief moment of anticipation crossed her mind. She couldn’t quite explain why, but it was as though she was hoping Wen Jin would come after her.
Such thoughts led Yu Anwan to laugh at herself.
Had the recent warmth and tenderness caused her to develop such illusions?
Heh…
Wen Jin gazed in the direction Yu Anwan had gone, and he clenched his fists momentarily. However, without further thought, Wen Jin simply followed Yu
Anwan’s path and chased after her.
It was an instinctive reaction.
Wen Jin didn’t even have time to consider his actions, his footsteps had already lost control.
In front of Lu Nanxin, Wen Jin ran in the direction of Yu Anwan.
Wen Zhanming watched silently, while Wen Zhanyan raised an eyebrow, his smile becoming more pronounced.
Indeed, this two-faced daddy of his had exceeded expectations this time.
Wen Zhanyan silently took out his phone and recorded a short video, which he then promptly sent to their group chat.
Wen Zhanyan said, “Well done!”
He didn’t pay attention to the group chat afterward. Instead, he observed the increasingly tense atmosphere before him.
“Wen Jin!” Lu Nanxin snapped out of her shock and grabbed Wen Jin’s hand.
“What are you doing?”
Wen Jin, suddenly caught by Lu Nanxin, seemed to regain his senses, and his gaze settled on her.
Lu Nanxin’s eyes welled up with mist. “Jin, are you going after Yu Anwan? What does that make me?”
Lu Nanxin’s tone was far from confrontational. In fact, it carried a sense of hurt.
Lu Chongming’s expression also turned particularly grim. “Wen Jin, don’t go too far.’
Wen Jin didn’t reply. He simply looked at Lu Nanxin. After a while, he calmly said, “I’m sorry..”
