Chapter 182 Liar
Wen Lan had no desire to break up with him and tried to return to the dining room.
But the thank you banquet blocked her way, and she taunted her thin lips: "Tell me, are you planning to be the stepmother of Jiang Jingci's son?"
When she was Mrs. Xie, Wen Lan hated it when he would seize on trivial things and ridicule her.
Now that he is divorced, he still has this attitude, which Wen Lan finds very ridiculous.
"It's been prepared a long time ago." Wen Lan's long eyelashes flickered, deliberately irritating him, "Jiang Jingci is mature and steady, has a strong family background, and will never embarrass me. Unlike some men who are picky, not only promiscuous, but also never embarrassed He won’t respect the woman who loves him!”
"Just click my name." Xie Yansheng's eyes darkened, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, took out a cigarette and lit it, and murmured with his back to her, "I really underestimate Jiang Jingci."
At this moment, Wen Lan actually heard a hint of melancholy and sadness in his voice.
Soon, she rejected this ridiculous idea.
How could the thank-you banquet voice from above and strategizing be deliberately difficult to suppress!
The two fell into silence.
Less than a third of the food on the table was eaten, and the bottle of red wine was drained.
He smoked one cigarette after another while turning his back to her thanking the banquet.
It was raining outside and there were no windows in the room. She choked and coughed twice.
Xie Yansheng had opened a window, put out the cigarette in his hand, and turned to look at her.
The band-aid on Xie Yansheng's forehead has fallen off, and the wound where she hit it with the water glass has scabbed over.
"Wen Lan." Xie Yansheng said in a deep voice with a sinister look in his eyes, "As long as I am alive, I will not let you marry another man."
She laughed noncommittally, "Please put yourself in your position. You are just my ex-husband, and you still want to interfere in my future life. It's really ridiculous."
"Let's all calm down and have a good talk." Xie Yansheng walked towards her, his eyes shining with unprecedented expectation and sincerity.
"I have nothing to talk about with you." Wen Lan refused, avoided the sound of thanking the banquet, walked into the nearest side bed, and locked the door.
The small fire that had just been ignited in Xie Yansheng's heart was extinguished in an instant.
He leaned against the wall opposite him, his eyes full of coldness and despair.
Wen Lan lay on the bed holding his cell phone and sent a text message to Jiang Guan, asking him if he had contacted Jiang Jingci.
Jiang Guan replied with two words in seconds: No.
She comforted: Don't worry, the communication signal should be interrupted.
Jiang Guan did not respond.
Wen Lan found Jiang Jingci's number and plucked up the courage to try several times, but still couldn't dial it.
She persuaded herself over and over again: Jiang Jingci has rich social experience and will be fine.
Since he is not prepared to accept Jiang Jingci, no matter what the reason is, the greeting will bring Jiang Jingci undesirable illusions.
Half an hour later, she sent another text message to Jiang Guan, but Jiang Guan still didn't reply.
That night, the sound of thanking the banquet didn't bother her, but she didn't sleep well either.
Several times when she woke up, she would pick up her phone to see if there was any message from Jiang Guan, but she was disappointed every time.
She felt guilty whenever she thought that Jiang Jingci took that high-speed train because of her and was still out of touch.
When she received a call from Jiang Guan last night, she could still calmly offer a few words of comfort.
Now, mobile phones are full of news about passengers stranded at high-speed rail stations in major airports. Because traffic was temporarily disrupted, many stations did not even have hot water or emergency medicines.
There are seven or eight stations along the high-speed rail line from Jiangcheng to Gangcheng. The most severely affected is Sihe, which is the station where Jiang Guan said Jiang Jingci was trapped.
Wen Lan also saw a short video posted by an Internet celebrity from a county adjacent to Sihe, saying that all the signal towers in Sihe were damaged, stranded passengers had no hot water or heating supplies, and even instant noodles had been robbed. Most of them Most travelers are starving.
The more she looked, the more frightened she became, and her eyelids kept twitching.
Although she had clearly rejected Jiang Jingci's overtures and Jiang Jingci resigned from Hong Kong City without informing her, in the final analysis, Jiang Jingci still took that high-speed train because of her!
It would be fine if Jiang Jingci was fine, but if something happened, she would have to bear a heavy debt of gratitude for the rest of her life!
Last night, there were not many reports about this incident on the Internet. Overnight, it became the number one hot search list in China.
Wen Lan's fingers trembled slightly as he dialed Jiang Guan's number.
The ringtone rang for a long time before Jiang Guan's hoarse voice came from the phone, "There is still no news from Lao Jiang."
"..."
Wen Lan's hand holding the phone shook, and the phone almost fell to the ground.
"Lao Jiang heard that you were going to Hong Kong City yesterday, so he booked the train. Since your schedule has changed, why didn't you inform him?"
Jiang Guan's accusation made Wen Lan feel ashamed.
"Lao Jiang has been out of contact for seventeen hours now. Have you ever called him?"
Wen Lan murmured guiltily: "I'm sorry, I was negligent."
"Since I first saw you, Lao Jiang has wanted to give you his whole heart. Now it seems that he is really blind!"
Jiang Guan hung up the phone angrily.
Wen Lan found Jiang Jingci's phone number and was about to dial it when there was a rapid knock on the door.
She knew it was the sound of thanking the banquet, and shouted angrily: "Don't bother me, I'm sleeping!"
"Wen Lan, you little liar, I clearly heard you talking on the phone." Xie Yansheng knocked on the door much harder.
She stared at Jiang Jingci's phone number on the screen of her phone, thought for a moment and then dialed it.
Then there was a busy tone.
Dial again, the same is true.
The phone slipped from her palm and fell onto the bed, and she didn't even notice it.
Xie Yansheng's increasingly loud banging on the door brought her back to reality.
She barely pulled herself together, got out of bed barefoot, and opened the door.
"Jiang Jingci isn't dead yet, who are you crying for?" Xie Yansheng walked into the bedroom and pulled her into his arms.
His hands quickly fell on her waist, which was too thin to be grasped.
She was very upset and reached out to block him, but Xie Yansheng pressed her down on the bed.
She used her hands and feet to fight with Xie Yansheng, and was defeated after a few rounds.
When Xie Yansheng pressed over, she realized that there was a terrifying scarlet at the end of Xie Yansheng's eyes.
Xie Yansheng looked crazy, paranoid, and rude, and he would not have any mercy on her.
For her, such an experience was a nightmare that she never wanted to repeat.
Every time, she cried and begged Xie Yansheng to let her go, but in return, Xie Yansheng used more methods on her.
Xie Yansheng's handsome face was tense, staring at her straight.
She knew she was doomed, so she closed her eyes like a puppet and let Xie Yansheng toss her around.
When Xie Yansheng realized that the woman under him was like a dead fish with no life, he bit her neck in hatred!
She screamed and opened her eyes, and slapped Xie Yansheng in the face!
