Chapter 37: Then What Are My Strengths

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Jinmo didn’t continue the topic. He picked up the noodles and took a bite, his movements as elegant as ever.

The noodles with chili were indeed different. The heat surged and made his eyes moist.

After he finished her noodles, Wen Yan offered her a cup of tea.

Gu Jinmo took it and started to enjoy the tea leisurely.

Ten minutes later…

Wen Yan looked at the time. The people from the Civil Affairs Bureau should be at work by now. Looking at Gu Jinmo, who was motionless, she wondered if she should remind him that if they were any later, the people from the Civil Affairs Bureau would be off work again.

Gu Jinmo saw that she could not sit still, and the corners of his lips curled into a thought-provoking smile.

At this moment, her phone rang.

Seeing that it was Xie Yiye, she hung up the phone without hesitation.

Since she had decided to stay away from the Xie family, she should not contact them anymore.

She thought Xie Yiye would back off after she hung up the phone, but Xie Yiye seemed to have made up his mind this time and kept calling.

Gu Jinmo glanced coldly at her phone.

The phone was on the table, and he saw the caller ID.

When he thought about how she would marry Xie Yiye after divorcing him, she felt a little depressed.

She was the one who had cheated on him, but he had no right to blame her.

“How come you do not pick it up?”

These words were a little playful.

Under Gu Jinmo’s probing gaze, she pressed the call button.

Xie Yiye’s excited voice rang out, “Where are you?”

His voice was choked with sobs, and every word was trembling. It had been a long time since he had been here and was so excited.

She didn’t know what happened to him, so she didn’t care. She only replied indifferently, “I thought I made some things clear last night.”

“I know, I know, but the situation is different now. Wen Yan, I have good news to tell you. I can’t tell you over the phone. Tell me where you are and I’ll pick you up and tell you in person.”

Xie Yiye rattled off a lot.

She was confused. She glanced at Gu Jinmo and finally whispered, “I’m not free in the morning. Pick me up at the Civil Affairs Bureau at 12 o’clock.”

She was indirectly reminding Gu Jinmo.

“Why are you going there?” Xie Yiye suddenly thought of something and raised his voice. “Oh, divorce. Divorce is good. Hurry up and divorce Gu Jinmo. When the time comes, I’ll introduce you to someone better.”

“Thank you.” Wen Yan hung up the phone and said to Gu Jinmo, “Let’s go. If we go over now, we can finish it before noon.”

“Yes.” Gu Jinmo stood up expressionlessly and walked out quickly.

After Wen Yan closed the door, Gu Jinmo, who had his back to her, turned around again.

“Wen Yan.”

“Hmm?”

“In your heart, am I not even as good as Xie Yiye?”

Wen Yan pursed her lips, not knowing what he meant by asking this question. After a moment of silence, she said softly, “It’s hard to compare people. You have your strengths, and he has his.”

“Oh?” Gu Jinmo raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Then what are my strengths?”

Wen Yan immediately thought about it, but her mind was filled with her shortcomings.

Cold, scum, wavering…

As time passed, Gu Jinmo sneered.

“You’re good-looking,” Wen Yan quickly said.

Gu Jinmo was speechless.

“Forget it, let’s go.” Gu Jinmo quickly walked into the car, and she could only brace herself and get in.

Wen Yan sat in the backseat, facing the window. It was very quiet.

Gu Jinmo glanced at her and whispered, “If you don’t want to get a divorce, it’s not too late.”

If they didn’t get a divorce, would she watch him and Su Qianqian kiss each other?

Wen Yan looked over with a cold face and said decisively, “Leave.”

One word, extremely cold.

Gu Jinmo simply shut his mouth and closed his eyes to rest.

Not far away from the Civil Affairs Bureau, Su Qianqian had arrived early to wait.

Today was the day of Gu Jinmo and Wen Yan’s divorce. She wanted to stay and watch them get the divorce certificate with her own eyes.

Thinking of Wen Yan’s identity, Su Qianqian’s eyes reddened with jealousy.

Xie Zigui sent a message saying Xie Yiye had gone to get the test results and asked her to think of a way to solve this matter.

She knew what Xie Zigui meant. As long as she stopped this matter, her family and the Xie family’s cooperation could continue.

Yesterday, she had already seen the power of Xie Zigui’s methods. As long as she was willing, it was not impossible to turn the situation around.

She made a call and instructed the person on the other side, “Have you stopped Xie Yiye?”

It was a cold male voice and the sound of an engine starting. It seemed like he was still driving.

“I’m following him. How can I stop him if you want me to? I’m not a police car.”

“If Wen Yan’s identity is exposed, we won’t have a good life.” Su Qianqian’s eyes looked down viciously.

She had thought Wen Yan was just an orphan. She did not expect she was actually the fourth daughter of the Xie family who had gone missing. If she was recognized, she would be the first to be dealt with.

She could not let this happen.

Xie Yiye held the test report in his hand.

The detective also gave the results. There was a 99% chance that Wen Yan was Xie Xianxian.

“Try your best to stop Xie Yiye.” Su Qianqian said fiercely, “No matter the price.”

“Su Qianqian, I’m not a god. If you want me to stop him now, you can’t blame me if he dies.”

Thinking about how Xie Yiye had humiliated her, Su Qianqian’s heart hardened and she sneered, “Up to you.”

As long as she could achieve her goal, what harm was there in getting a little blood?

Xie Zigui only said to stop Xie Yiye, but she didn’t ask her to save his life.

Xie Yiye humiliated her in front of so many people. He didn’t even care about the relationship they had since they were young. Why was she still thinking about his life and death?

Sorry, Xie Yiye.

Xie Yiye sat in the car, his hands trembling with excitement.

The examination results were out!

Wen Yan was indeed his sister.

He had found his sister!

He had been waiting for her for more than 20 years. If his parents and brother knew about this, they would definitely be very happy.

The most important thing now was to pick up Wen Yan and bring her back to the Xie family.

He wanted to tell this good news to everyone in the family.

Because of his nervousness and excitement, he did not see a large truck approaching him quickly. Instead, he kept staring at the navigation.

It was only 300 meters away from the Civil Affairs Bureau, 200 meters…

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard as the truck crashed into them.

As soon as Wen Yan got out of the car, she heard a loud noise coming from afar.

Her heart suddenly stopped.

After taking a few steps, she saw two girls on bicycles discussing as they walked over.

“There’s a car crash!”

“How tragic. It was a limited edition yellow sports car that collided with a big truck.”

“It’s probably because the drivers of sports cars don’t look at the road. Nowadays, people who drive luxury cars like to race the most.”

When Wen Yan heard about the limited edition yellow car, she immediately thought of Xie Yiye’s car.

Then, she thought about how she had asked Xie Yiye to come to the Civil Affairs Bureau…

Could it be Xie Yiye’s car?

Wen Yan shakily dialed Xie Yiye’s number.

The other party quickly picked up.

“Hey, are you a family member of this phone owner?”

Wen Yan’s heart clenched, “Yes.”
