Chapter 158: Crazy
Given Jiang Jingci's attitude towards life, Wen Lan thought that she would be done after adding him as a friend, but she didn't expect to receive a "hello" emoticon.
She didn't want to reply, but for the sake of the ring, she replied "Mr. Jiang, hello".
Fortunately, Jiang Jingci didn't send any more messages, otherwise she would feel like someone was chasing her for debt!
To celebrate the successful divorce, she booked a small private room at No. 9 early and drove there at 6:30 in the evening.
Zhou Qiao called and said that she would be late for half an hour due to something urgent.
Wen Lan sat alone in the private room and swiped her phone. The call rang, and it was Jiang Jingci.
She answered it immediately, "Mr. Jiang."
"Jiang Guan and I came to No. 9 for dinner and saw your car was there too." Jiang Jingci's voice was gentle and decent.
"I was indeed at No. 9 and made an appointment with Zhou Qiao." She suddenly felt that she had interacted with Jiang Jingci a lot today.
"I haven't seen Zhou Qiao for a long time, and I really want to chat with her. It's just Jiang Guan and I, if it's convenient, let's share a table?" Jiang Jingci didn't leave her time to think, "Which private room are you in?"
"222." Although the private room she booked was not big, it could still accommodate four people.
What's more, Jiang Jingci is now her creditor!
Two or three minutes later, Jiang Jingci and his son knocked on the door and came in.
"Sister Lan! I haven't seen you for several days. Do you miss me?" Jiang Guan took the initiative to greet her, quickly looked her up, and said in amazement, "You look haggard."
"You're too talkative." Jiang Jingci glared at Jiang Guan and glanced at the only empty seat left, "Why hasn't Zhou Qiao come yet?"
"She has something to do, and she will come after she's done. We can order first." Wen Lan handed the menu to Jiang Guan, "You are the youngest, you come."
Jiang Guan is a frequent customer of "No. 9". He threw the menu on the table and reported a few dishes to the waiter at the door.
Wen Lan listened and felt that they were all the best dishes here.
Jiang Guan played with his phone and stopped talking, and the atmosphere between Wen Lan and Jiang Jingci suddenly became cold.
Jiang Jingci smiled and poured water for her and Jiang Guan.
She felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly thanked Jiang Jingci.
"Sister Lan, just give Lao Jiang a chance to show off!" Jiang Guan glanced at the two of them while playing games.
Jiang Jingci looked at Wen Lan and tried to smooth things over for himself, "This kid is always talking nonsense, don't take it to heart."
Fortunately, Zhou Qiao came at this time. Jiang Jingci and she were old acquaintances, so they naturally had a lot of topics to talk about after meeting.
Wen Lan and Zhou Qiao wanted to talk about some private matters, but the father and son of the Jiang family were present, so they didn't mention it.
The meal was quite enjoyable. When the four of them went downstairs, Wen Lan rushed to pay the bill, but the cashier said that Jiang Jingci had already paid the bill in advance.
"It was agreed that I would treat you, why did Mr. Jiang pay the bill?" Wen Lan complained.
Jiang Jingci smiled and said, "I'll pay this time, you pay next time."
"Okay." Wen Lan couldn't think of whether he and Jiang Jingci would have the opportunity to sit at the same table for dinner after the ring issue was resolved.
The rain outside had stopped and the temperature was very low. Wen Lan was wearing a coat and sneezed twice in a row.
Jiang Jingci drove Jiang Guan out of the parking lot first. Zhou Qiao sat in the passenger seat of Wen Lan and asked while thinking, "Is Lao Jiang interested in you?"
"Don't talk nonsense, it was just a coincidence. If he had other ideas, he wouldn't bring his son with him, right?" Wen Lan explained.
Zhou Qiao also nodded: "That's right, Lao Jiang loves his wife deeply, I feel that he is a man who will die alone, and he will never have other ideas about women in this life. By the way, did Xie Zha Zha make things difficult for you during the divorce?"
She shook her head: "Really not. I guess he was completely annoyed when he saw me getting off the funeral car of Shen's mother."
"Do you regret not being Mrs. Xie?" Zhou Qiao adjusted the seat back and leaned back, "Shen Yi has nothing now, and being with him——"
"I won't go on with him. He deserves a better woman." Wen Lan said leisurely, "I feel more sympathy for Shen Yi."
"I asked my dad to ask someone, and Shen Qingfeng's case did not involve Shen Yi. I believe there will be good news in a few days." Zhou Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Mother Shen is too fragile, it would be great if she could live..."
Back in Blue Water Bay, Wen Lan was afraid that Xie Yansheng would come uninvited again, so she not only locked the door, but also pushed a chair.
After taking a shower and lying on the bed, she found that Jiang Jingci had sent her a WeChat message ten minutes ago, asking her if she had slept.
She felt that the two of them interacted too frequently today, so she didn't reply.
Xie Jianning, who hadn't contacted her for many days, called her.
She quickly clicked the answer button.
"I heard that you and your elder brother divorced?" This time, Xie Jianning didn't call her "sister-in-law".
She said "hmm".
"In order to keep your marriage, your elder brother just gave up his inheritance rights. You don't care about your status at all, and you run around for the Shen family. Where do you let your elder brother put his face?"
Xie Jianning, who was usually cold, suddenly accused Wen Lan.
Wen Lan found it irritating and retorted, "Xie Yansheng has been having a lot of affairs outside. He has already made me lose face. Why would I care about his face?"
"The Shen family's troubles were caused by you. You are really a beauty who brings disaster." Xie Jianning laughed coldly, "Shen Yi was harmed by you and even his lawyer's license was revoked. Don't you feel guilty at all?"
As expected of a member of the Xie family, every word they say is a complaint about others, and they never blame themselves.
"Xie Yansheng should be the one who feels guilty." Wen Lan said, "Instead of wasting time on the phone with me, you might as well go and settle accounts with Xie Yansheng! But I know that you are afraid of Xie Yansheng in your heart. No matter how much you hate him, you will not break up with him."
Xie Jianning was hit in the soft spot, and she was even more angry: "Big brother is almost mad at you. I'm going to find someone to knock down your wedding house in Anyueyuan and raze it to the ground!"
Wen Lan almost dropped her phone when she heard this.
Xie Yansheng said that he didn't want to see other men in and out of their former wedding house. Did he want the house back just to knock it down?
That's a villa worth eight figures!
If what Xie Jianning said is true, then Xie Yansheng is crazy!
"You have already maddened Big Brother to the point of being crazy! What have you done to make Big Brother heartbroken these days?" Xie Jianning's teeth were clattering.
Wen Lan was in no mood to talk to her anymore and hung up the phone.
She half believed what Xie Jianning said, half doubted it, picked up a coat, put it on, and drove straight to Anyueyuan.
Before the car entered the parking lot, she heard the roar of the excavator coming from the direction of the house.
Dust was flying, and Xie Yansheng's lonely figure stood in the night.
