Chapter 241 Bright
It was Xiao Li who knocked on the door.
"Designer Wen, there is a beautiful woman named Xie waiting for you in the rest area."
Wen Lan frowned. Just after Xie Yansheng left, another person named Xie came?
When he saw Xie Jianning, two words suddenly flashed in Wen Lan's mind: Mingyan.
Xie Jianning is a cool beauty. Most of her usual clothes are plain colors with good texture, and her makeup is also very light.
But now she is dressed in red, with snow-skinned lips and dark purple eyeliner, and her eyebrows are more charming than ever before.
This kind of style is nourished by men.
Before Wen Lan could speak, Xie Jianning had already said hello, "I was passing by here and came here to see you."
The word "specially" made Wen Lan want to laugh inexplicably, and he said patiently and perfunctorily: "Miss Xie is still thinking about me. I'm really flattered."
In fact, Wen Lan knew that Xie Jianning came to see if she had gone to see Shen's mother off for the last time.
"I just saw my eldest brother. He had a straight face and looked very unhappy." Xie Jianning stared at Wen Lan with a smile, "Are you making your eldest brother angry again?"
Wen Lan didn't want to reply to anything related to Xie Yansheng and chose to remain silent.
"Eldest brother is miserable enough. Not only did the An family cancel the engagement ceremony, he was whipped dozens of times by the old man. His whole back was a bloody mess." Xie Jianning frowned pretending to be sad.
Wen Lan's heart palpitated when he heard this, and he quickly asked: "When did it happen?"
"The evening before yesterday." Xie Jianning said calmly, "It should have been the time when you and your ex-mother-in-law had a conflict."
Hearing this, Wen Lan felt a little better.
It turned out that Xie Yansheng was in trouble that day, so he didn't intentionally not answer her call.
Wen Lan had already witnessed Mr. Xie's cruelty with his own eyes. Dozens of whips had hit Xie Yansheng's back, and his body must have become ferocious, right?
"I heard that you have just established a men's haute couture studio. I would like to order a suit for Shen Yi. Do you have any recommended styles and materials?" Xie Jianning crossed her long legs and sat elegantly.
Wen Lan wanted to refuse, but he thought that he would have to take out a bank loan to buy a house. As long as he made money, it didn't matter whether it was Xie Jianning or Shen Yi!
She quickly gathered her emotions, took out a thick book from the storage compartment above, and handed it to Xie Jianning: "Let's see if there is anything you like?"
"Now, Mother Shen's ashes should be scattered into Minglun Lake, right?" Xie Jianning obviously didn't come here for clothes.
Wen Lan sneered: "You asked the wrong person. I really don't know."
"Didn't Mother Shen like you very much when she was alive? Why don't you give her a ride?" Xie Jianning asked with interest.
Wen Lan had always thought that Xie Jianning was an anomaly in the Xie family, but he didn't expect that he was also a master who didn't feel comfortable exposing others' wounds.
"You take your time and choose. I still have something to do. Just call me when you have made your choice later." Wen Lan turned around and returned to his studio.
Her mind was filled with the scene of Xie Yansheng being beaten by the old man with a whip, until a quick call on her cell phone brought her back to reality.
It's a strange number.
She clicked the answer button without thinking.
"Ms. Wen, I am Mrs. Xie's lawyer, Zhang Ming——"
As soon as Zhang Ming's voice came from the phone, Wen Lan dragged the number into the blacklist.
If Xie's mother just insulted her, she wouldn't care, but she was already frantically trying to ruin her face!
Last time Han Pei made a big fuss in TT, which caused her to lose face in front of her colleagues. She was originally going to go through legal proceedings, but Xie Yansheng forced her to sign the agreement under the pressure of Mr. Xie.
This time, she will fight the Xie family to the end and never give in!
Her two-year marriage to Xie Yansheng was turbulent. Even though she criticized Xie's mother, she still called "Mom" and "Mom" before the divorce.
As a woman, Mother Xie knows how important a face is to a woman!
Even if you hate her, you shouldn't have the thought of killing her, right?
Now, Wen Lan doesn't want to hear or think about people and things related to the Xie family, otherwise he will feel a deep sense of suffocation.
Opening all the windows in the room, she shivered as the cold spring north wind blew.
Wen Lan came back to his senses only when he heard Zhou Qiao knocking on the door and coming in.
"Finally, I sent Mother Shen to where she wanted to go." After Zhou Qiao entered the door, he poured himself a glass of water and drank it with a lonely expression.
Wen Lan asked softly: "Is Xie Jianning still in the rest area?"
"Is she here? I'm afraid she's here to disgust you again!" Zhou Qiao sat down, "She probably left. I didn't see her when I walked in."
"When I met Shen Yi this time, I felt that he had changed." Zhou Qiao held a disposable cup and slowly turned it in his hand. "Shen Yi used to be a gentle and transparent gentleman. Now, his scheming is terrifying."
"After he went to Hong Kong City, he was no longer the same Shen Yi he was before." Wen Lan was full of melancholy and helplessness.
Shen Yi had a bone-gnawing hatred for Xie Yansheng. It would be okay if Shen Yi's career was mediocre in this life, but once he became prosperous and had the confidence to compete with Xie Yansheng, he would definitely fight to the death with Xie Yansheng.
One is the first love and the other is the ex-husband.
In the near future, the latter will also be the father of her child.
This is what she doesn't want to see.
"Shen Yi is looking for Xie Jianning now. It is clear that he is sleeping and playing. It would be okay if Xie Jianning is also playing, but if he takes the initiative, it will be over." Zhou Qiao chuckled, "Just wait and see, with Shen Yi's methods, Xie Jianning will be beaten It’s crazy!”
Wen Lan had already thought of this, but she had no right to interfere with the life Shen Yi chose.
"Shen Yi is going to entertain guests on the 9th tonight. Are you going?" Zhou Qiao asked.
She shook her head, "Tomorrow I have to sign a formal house purchase contract, and I have to apply for a bank loan. Instead of participating in unnecessary entertainment, it is better to design more clothes and earn more money."
"Are you ready to pay the money so soon?" Zhou Qiao never expected Wen Lan to be so straightforward in buying a house, "Don't go to the bank for a loan. I have the difference on my card."
"Actually, I can also take out the full amount, but -" Wen Lan put a hand on his lower abdomen and thought of Ji Minxin again, "There are still many things to do in the future. I left a sum of money and don't want to move it for the time being."
"My money doesn't require interest. Can I borrow it?" Zhou Qiao asked with a smile.
"Just save it! If you run three studios by one person, you will lose money if you don't make tens of thousands of profits every day. Thinking about it, I'm so tired for you!" Wen Lan refused directly.
"A woman who becomes a mother has a different level of thinking than before." Zhou Qiao curiously touched her flat belly, "Whether he is a boy or a girl, when he is born, I will do it for him. Godmother!”
"Then I'll wait for you to pay for the gift." Wen Lan swatted her hand away and said, "According to a formula on the Internet, I calculated the due date. He should be born at the beginning of September according to the lunar calendar."
"Have you ever thought about how you will raise the child if you give birth to it?" Zhou Qiao was already worried about her before the child was born, "Lao Jiang is so sincere, why don't you think about it?"
She shook her head decisively.
Zhou Qiao saw the determination in her eyebrows and patted her shoulder distressedly, "Since men are unreliable, I will raise babies with you from now on."
Upon hearing this, her eye sockets immediately turned red.
