Wen Jin smiled silently as he looked down at the ground, seemingly deep in thought. When he looked at Yu Anwan again, there was a hint of complicated emotion in his eyes.
“In the three years, I spent in the Wen family, I remember that grandpa treated you very well.” Wen Jin mentioned Wen Zhanming.
These words made Yu Anwan fall silent.
To be honest, during those three years in the Wen family, Wen Zhanming had indeed treated her well. At least he didn’t embarrass her because of the difference in their status.
Back then, Yu Anwan had used various means to get into Wen Jin’s bed, aiming to become the legitimate Mrs. Wen. However, Wen Jin was unwilling.
Yet, Wen Zhanming unhesitatingly stood by Yu Anwan’s side and even reprimanded Wen Jin when he was cold to her. Wen Jin thought that Yu Anwan and Wen Zhanming had reached an agreement.
However, Yu Anwan knew well that she and Wen Zhanming had never discussed anything, yet Wen Zhanming agreed to this marriage.
Yu Anwan became Mrs. Wen.
Even during the three years of their marriage, when Wen Jin was indifferent to Yu Anwan, Wen Zhanming would side with her and scold Wen Jin.
The rift between them had been building up because of Lu Nanxin, and it was impossible to explain it. It was only when Yu Anwan’s heart had completely died that there were no more ups and downs.
They had returned to the starting point of being more like strangers than strangers.
“Grandpa was also very kind to me.” Wen Jin continued to smile as if reminiscing.
“The Wen family was in chaos. My father had an affair, and my mother pretended to be a loving couple on the surface. However, they had been living separate lives for a long time. Yet, my mother was unwilling to get a divorce, saying she wanted to hold onto the title of Mrs. Wen even if she had to die,”
Wen Jin talked about the Wen family.
To be precise, it was Wen Jin’s own business.
Yu Anwan was surprised because when they were married, Wen Jin had never mentioned this to her.
Yu Anwan knew very little about the Wen family. Wen Jin had never allowed her to enter the Wen family or his social circle. She was merely an outsider with the title of Mrs. Wen, nothing more.
As Yu Anwan pondered, Wen Jin’s deep voice continued to speak.
“The Wen family was a mess, and I was rebellious and unruly when I was young. I thought I could get their attention this wav, but it was in vain,” Wen Jin said with self-deprecation.
Yu Anwan listened quietly, not saying a word.
“Afterward, grandpa took me under his wing and taught me all the rules of the Wen family and everything about Wen Corporation. At that time, grandpa was like a guiding light in my dark world,” Wen Jin shared, speaking about many things related to Wen Zhanming.
For the first time, Yu Anwan saw the humane side of Wen Jin.
Before this, she had always believed that Wen Jin lacked humanity. Even concerning Wen Zhanming, she thought that Wen Jin was merely fulfilling his obligation.
Yu Anwan was a little dazed as she listened.
“Grandpa wasn’t just good to me. He was also very kind to Zhanyan.” Wen Jin suddenly mentioned Wen Zhanyan.
Hearing Wen Zhanyan’s name triggered Yu Anwan’s sensitive nerves, and she gazed intently at Wen Jin, patiently waiting for him to continue. Wen Zhanyan instantly understood Yu Anwan’s thoughts from her gaze.
He couldn’t help but chuckle.
Looking back at Yu Anwan’s determined eyes, he raised an eyebrow. “You want me to talk about Zhanyan’s affairs? What are the benefits?” This remark instantly made Yu Anwan feel like hitting him.
Her expression changed at once.
Did she care? Huh, even if Wen Jin didn’t say anything, she had her ways to uncover Wen Zhanyan’s secrets.
So, without hesitation, Yu Anwan turned around. It was just foolish of her to think that Wen Jin was planning to have a sincere conversation with her.
A scumbag will always be a scumbag. They never change their ways!
However, just as Yu Anwan turned around, Wen Jin suddenly spoke again. “You don’t want to hear it?”
This sentence successfully made Yu Anwan stay. But her gaze towards Wen Jin was full of arrogance. If Wen Jin dared to speak any nonsense, Yu Anwan would leave immediately.
It seemed that Wen Jin no longer wanted to keep Yu Anwan in suspense. His deep and magnetic voice resounded slowly. “If you say that grandpa treats me well, then he treats Zhanyan like his most beloved treasure. Whatever Zhanyan wants, grandpa agrees without any hesitation, even if it’s an unreasonable request. ”
“I remember when Zhanyan was four years old, he asked grandpa for a very important project in Wen Corporation. No one in the company agreed, including me, but grandpa granted it to him without hesitation. However, Zhanyan was very capable and intelligent despite his young age. He understood everything clearly and managed everything exceptionally well. In the end, that project was under Zhanyan’s control, and he earned a 300% profit.” “Zhanyan’s health was extremely poor. He only started speaking at the age of three. Before that, he had never uttered a word. He didn’t even say, dad or
mom. Everyone thought he might be autistic or have developmental issues, but grandpa never believed that.”
Wen Jin said a lot of things, recounting how well Wen Zhanming treated Wen Zhanyan.
Yu Anwan listened quietly and, for this reason, she was grateful to Wen Zhanming.
However, she decided not to have any more involvement with the Wen family. Therefore, no matter what Wen Jin said, Yu Anwan remained indifferent.
And Yu Anwan understood Wen Jin’s intentions very well.
This person had been too brutal, but now he was adopting a more conciliatory approach, using a mix of persuasion and coercion.
Wen Jin looked at Yu Anwan calmly and said, “Grandfather’s recent accident was related to Zhanyan.”
His words immediately made Yu Anwan’s expression serious, and she turned her gaze toward Wen Jin. “What did you say? How is grandfather’s accident connected to Zhanyan?”
Yu Anwan’s tone sounded anxious. Only when it came to Wen Zhanyan’s matters did she become emotionally invested?
This realization made Wen Jin feel extremely uncomfortable, though he didn’t show it on the surface.
Then, he continued in a composed manner, “Zhanyan was with grandpa in the capital. After grandpa retired, he enjoyed spending time in the mountains. Despite being quiet and reserved, Zhanyan is still a child and naturally curious. One day, he looked over the edge of a cliff out of curiosity and accidentally slipped. Grandfather acted quickly and pulled him up, but in the process, he lost his footing and fell.”
As Wen Jin spoke, a shadow crossed his expression.
“As a result, Zhanyan has been feeling guilty about his grandfather’s accident. The rest of the Wen family also treated him as if he were responsible for his grandfather’s injury,” Wen Jin continued, lifting his eyes and speaking directly.
His eyes were cold, carrying a trace of determination, forbidding anyone from speaking ill of Zhanyan.
Even Yu Anwan’s expression changed upon hearing this.
She knew what kind of place the Wen family was after spending three years there. She had also witnessed the harshness of the Wen Family..
