Chapter 214: Heartless
Xie Yansheng has a tall and straight figure and elegant features, which makes people fall in love with him at first sight.
He was born into a wealthy family and has been thriving in the business world in recent years, which makes him look arrogant and noble.
When he walked into the venue on the first floor of the convention and exhibition center, he immediately became the focus of the venue.
Whether it was the female models who were rehearsing on the stage, or the staff and spectators under the stage, their eyes fell on Xie Yansheng.
Xie Yansheng held his mobile phone in one hand, his eyes were slightly depressed, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, and he walked towards Wen Lan who was facing away from him.
Zhou Qiao rolled her eyes in disdain when she saw Xie Yansheng.
Wen Lan realized that Xie Yansheng came to the venue only after a while.
When she came to her senses, Xie Yansheng was already standing beside her.
Seeing the bite marks on Xie Yansheng's neck left by her last time, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into and never come out again.
Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, the two instantly became the focus of the venue.
Wen Lan knew that Xie Yansheng was always thick-skinned, and was afraid that he would say something lewd in public, so she coaxed him with soft words, "You go outside and wait for me immediately, I will be out in two minutes."
"Two minutes--" Xie Yansheng narrowed his eyes and turned on the timer on his mobile phone, "The countdown begins."
Wen Lan was so angry that his body trembled slightly, but in order to reduce his presence in the venue at this time, he still compromised.
When Xie Yansheng turned to go out, Wen Lan found Zhou Qiao.
"What do you mean? Xie Zha Zha stood here, and you followed him?" Zhou Qiao lowered his voice, very dissatisfied.
Wen Lan looked at Zhou Qiao in embarrassment, "My work will be suspended for a while, and I will be back within an hour."
"Then one hour." Zhou Qiao bit his lip and looked at his mobile phone, and said with a stern face, "If you dare to value love over friendship this time, I will end my friendship with you!"
Wen Lan made an "ok" gesture to her, took his bag and coat and ran out of the venue.
"Five seconds later than the agreed time." Xie Yansheng saw Wen Lan panting and waved the screen of his mobile phone in front of her. "But, I'm easy to talk to, so I won't pursue it."
The restaurant Xie Yansheng booked was opposite the convention center, and the two walked there.
After sitting down in a private room with a good atmosphere, Xie Yansheng asked her to order.
In order to save time, she didn't refuse and ordered four dishes and a soup.
Wen Lan had been busy until now, and she hadn't eaten a meal. She was hungry. Seeing that there were appetizers on the menu, she ordered two.
After the waiter brought it up, she didn't care about Xie Yansheng and ate it by herself.
"You didn't eat desserts before, what's wrong?" Xie Yansheng's eyes were always on her.
"Low blood sugar, uncomfortable." She checked the time on her phone while eating, "I have to go back within an hour."
"I know an old Chinese doctor. When you have time, I will take you to see him. Just take some medicine to adjust it."
"No need. Just eat breakfast on time and you'll be fine." Wen Lan felt that after the divorce, Xie Yansheng was more patient with her than before.
Xie Yansheng stared at her with burning eyes, "Jiang Jingci's sponsorship fee is the same as mine."
"I don't know." Wen Lan tried to pass it over lightly.
Xie Yansheng did not intend to skip this topic, "Is he demonstrating to me in this way?"
"I don't know." She perfunctorily again.
"You gave him all the confidence!" Xie Yansheng's words were thorny.
Wen Lan knew that at this time, only by shifting the topic to Cheng Nijia would Xie Yansheng calm down.
"Your white moonlight came to me and asked you to return the child to her as soon as possible."
"White moonlight?" Xie Yansheng raised his eyebrows and laughed sarcastically, "Cheng Nijia, at most, is a grain of rice that sticks to you and can't be shaken off."
"Where did you hide Cheng Cheng?" Wen Lan asked.
"This is not your business. If you really have time, you might as well care about me." As Xie Yansheng was talking, the waiter knocked on the door to deliver the dishes.
Wen Lan didn't argue with him anymore and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
Halfway through the meal, Wen Lan thought of Xie's mother and asked hurriedly: "Your mother won't go to Blue Water Bay again, right?"
"I have said hello to her, and she won't go today." Xie Yansheng looked at her with gentle and affectionate eyes, "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is hard to say."
"You'd better control her and don't let her appear in my sight. Otherwise, if she knocks on the door next time, I will call the police." Wen Lan made his attitude clear.
Xie Yansheng curved his lips and said faintly, "You gave me all your ruthlessness."
Wen Lan felt inexplicably upset and lowered her head to eat.
This week, she was busy preparing for the New Year's show. She was either too busy to eat or had a box lunch at the venue.
Now that she had such hot meals, she felt comfortable inside.
Xie Yansheng didn't even take the chopsticks, but just looked at her quietly, and added a portion of pumpkin porridge for her.
Wen Lan was full and put down her chopsticks, only to find that most of the four dishes and one soup went into her mouth.
She looked at Xie Yansheng across from her embarrassedly, "Aren't you hungry?"
"After the divorce, even my appetite is better than before." Xie Yansheng said self-deprecatingly.
She checked the time and saw that it had been fifty minutes since she came out. She urged, "Anything else to say?"
"Are you ready to leave?" Xie Yansheng pursed his thin lips into a straight line and took out a cigarette and held it between his fingers. "Let me ask you another question. Do you have any thoughts about settling down in Beijing?"
"Did you take the wrong medicine again?" Wen Lan looked back at Xie Yansheng in disbelief. "My job is in Jiangcheng. What am I going to do in Beijing? To be your bed warmer?"
"If you go to Beijing with me, I will pay for you to open a women's clothing high-end studio that is bigger than TT. Don't worry, my connections in Beijing are no worse than those in Jiangcheng." Xie Yansheng's expression became more serious.
"When I was Mrs. Xie, I didn't even think about going to Beijing with you to settle down. Now that we are divorced, will I go to Beijing with you?" Wen Lan was ready to leave.
Xie Yansheng stood up and blocked the door, his voice revealing a humility that he himself did not even notice, "Think about it and then reply to me, huh?"
"No need to consider it." She refused.
"Because the surname Jiang is in Jiangcheng, you are reluctant to leave?" Xie Yansheng lost all patience, stretched out his hand to push her against the door, and said hatefully, "Are you really going to be Jiang Jingci's woman?"
"It's my freedom to be whose woman I want to be. Why do you control me!" She pulled Xie Yansheng's hand hard.
"Just because I slept with you, is this reason enough!" Xie Yansheng held her tightly in his arms and bit her earlobe, and his hands went down along her thin waist.
She was so ashamed and angry that she grabbed her handbag and threw it at Xie Yansheng.
Xie Yansheng stretched out his hand to block it, and during the tug, her fingers grabbed Xie Yansheng's right cheek!
Two bright red scratches were shocking!
Xie Yansheng touched his burning face and let go of Wen Lan in frustration.
Wen Lan ran away as if escaping.
