Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This group of people was so anxious they were running around in circles. A few of them were so anxious that they started crying.

Seeing Wen Yan standing there, she quickly came over and asked, “Miss, have you seen a woman in her forties or fifties in red?”

The person who asked was a young girl. Her eyes were red and her shoulders were trembling. It was unknown if she was worried or scared.

Wen Yan shook her head.

The little girl cried and looked elsewhere.

She remembered reading some gossip somewhere. It was said that Mrs. Xie had been mentally ill ever since her daughter went missing and needed a lot of people to take care of her. She did not expect such gossip to be true.

Actually, Mrs. Xie was also a pitiful person.

The greatest pain in the world was the loss of a son. It was said that Mrs. Xie liked daughters very much back then and insisted on giving birth to a daughter. After giving birth to three sons, she finally had a daughter. She did not expect that before she could enjoy the happiness of family, the child was gone.

Wen Yan felt a little stifled at the thought of this.

She hoped that nothing would happen to this Mrs. Xie who loved her daughter so much.

In the hospital, Gu Jinmo slowly woke up.

Su Qianqian, who had been standing by the side, saw that he had woken up and was so happy that she choked up, “Brother Mo, you’re awake!”

“How is she?” Gu Jinmo asked.

“Who?” Su Qianqian didn’t react.

“Wen Yan.”

Su Qianqian pretended to be enlightened and quickly said, “She’s fine. She insisted on being discharged. I think she went to the Xie family to meet the parents.”

Gu Jinmo pursed his lips when he heard the words “meet the parents.”

Su Qianqian carefully observed his expression.

Her best friend who attended the Xie family’s banquet told her about Wen Yan.

She added oil and vinegar.

“Brother Mo, if she insists on being with Xie Yiye, we should give her our blessings.”

Blessing…

Gu Jinmo laughed coldly, his strong jawline filled with anger.

He could give his blessings, but not to her and Xie Yiye.

Seeing that he was angry, Su Qianqian quickly held his hand affectionately, “Auntie said that she wants to see us get married as soon as possible. It’ll be fine at the beginning of next month. Brother Mo, will you marry me?”

Su Qianqian was perturbed and looking forward to it.

Brother Mo had previously promised to take good care of her. Now that they were divorced and Zhang Lan had agreed, it was time to bring up marriage.

However, under her expectant gaze, Gu Jinmo quietly pulled his hand away.

Gu Jinmo looked at her steadily, his deep eyes seeming to be able to see through people’s hearts.

“Brother Mo.” Su Qianqian nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes. “Don’t you want Auntie to be happy? Auntie really wants to see us get married.”

“Does she want you to marry Gu Jinmo or Gu Jinxiao?”

Su Qianqian was stunned. In an instant, her face turned from white to red, then from red to black.

“We’re having a wedding. Do you call me Gu Jinxiao or Gu Jinmo? Aren’t you afraid of being exposed at the wedding?”

A deep voice came from the man’s throat. His tone was playful and his eyes were full of sarcasm.

Su Qianqian had thought about this long ago and smiled sweetly, “We don’t need to hold a big wedding. We’ll just invite a few familiar people. As long as everything is arranged well, Auntie won’t notice this.”

Gu Jinmo’s gaze deepened, and his deep voice was filled with mockery, “Mom treats me as my brother, so do you want to treat me as him too?”

“No, Brother Mo, I…” Su Qianqian stood up in a panic. “You know that I’ve always liked you all these years. Why would I treat you as Brother Xiao?”

“Let’s put this matter aside for now.” Gu Jinmo’s eyes drooped. His gaze fell on the time on his phone and he subconsciously got out of bed.

“Brother Mo, don’t come down. The doctor said that you still need to recuperate.” Su Qianqian hurriedly stopped him, her large eyes brimming with tears.

Gu Jinmo pursed his lips and his gaze fell on his legs. He couldn’t help but think of the scene when Wen Yan rushed into the fire to save him.

She must have said those words to vent her anger on him on purpose.

He touched the place she had touched, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

Seeing that he was struggling to stand up, Su Qianqian’s tears finally fell. Large pearls rolled down her face.

She cried and hugged Gu Jinmo. “Are you going to find her?”

“Brother Mo, she doesn’t care about her health and wants to see Xie Yiye. Can’t you just stand by and watch?”

Stand by and watch…

His back tensed up and his fingers clenched into fists.

He could let her go and give her his blessings, but he couldn’t watch her go into the fire pit.

The moment Wen Yan rushed into the fire to save him, he could no longer stand by and watch.

…

Under Xie Yiye’s lead, Wen Yan walked into the villa.

This time, she was not Mrs. Gu but Wen Yan.

“I’ll bring you to meet my family later.”

His family…

These words sounded a little strange.

She did not think too much about it and handed him the handbag in her hand, “This is a birthday present for Uncle.”

Xie Yiye picked up the bag and glanced inside. It was tightly wrapped and he couldn’t see what was inside.

Xie Yiye raised his eyebrows and smiled wickedly, “I’ll call them. You can give it to him later.”

After saying that, he ran away. His footsteps were light and he was a little impatient.

On the contrary, she became nervous while waiting.

The Xie family was the richest family in the city. They were so rich that their assets were ranked among the top in the country.

She didn’t expect Xie Yiye to be so enthusiastic and introduce his family to her.

Who was she? She was just a little designer. How could she let the elders meet her?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was impolite. Wen Yan stood up and wanted to chase after Xie Yiye, but he bumped into someone.

“Aiyo!”

The person was wearing a long purple dress. As she walked very quickly, she did not see Wen Yan.

The wine spilled. The girl in the purple dress first sized up Wen Yan. She had never seen her before.

She often attended all kinds of banquets and had seen all kinds of ladies. There were not many that she did not know.

Seeing that Wen Yan was good-looking but unfamiliar, she immediately determined that her background was not big. She might even be a small internet celebrity who had sneaked in from somewhere.

“Miss, you ruined my clothes.” She pointed at a certain part of her waist and said in a sharp voice, “Remember to transfer me the money after the banquet is over. It’s a high-end one, about 300,000 yuan.”

Wen Yan sized up her clothes. What a coincidence, she had this dress too, but it was not a high-end design. It was a regular design from a certain brand two years ago. When it was newly released, it was only 20,000 yuan. 300,000 yuan was an exorbitant price.

Moreover, she was the one who bumped into her just now.

Wen Yan curled her lips into a beautiful smile.

“Miss, if I remember correctly, you bumped into me just now, right?”

“I bumped into you. Are you blind?” The girl in purple suddenly flew into a rage and splashed the remaining wine in her glass onto Wen Yan’s clothes. “If you can’t afford it, then enjoy this glass of red wine with me.”

Wen Yan’s waist was tightly wrapped in the red dress, and the arc was just right.

The red wine splashed on her body like a dark flower blooming at her waist.
