Chapter 244: Trade-offs
Xie Yansheng has long been aware of Mr. Xie's dirty tricks.
Mr. Xie really wants Uncle Zhong to use his methods on Wen Lan. Wen Lan's stubbornness will only make her suffer more physical torture.
To care or not to care?
Xie Yansheng pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray and asked himself over and over again.
He hated whenever he thought of the child in Wen Lan's belly.
Because this child has shattered all his illusions about Wen Lan.
Mr. Xie took out his cell phone and looked at it, "No wait. Since she won't sign, let Azhong take care of it, as long as no lives are lost."
Xie Yansheng's eyes were dark and his face was solemn. After much consideration, he still called the old man to stop, "Tell me, what are the conditions?"
Even though she was pregnant with someone else's child and heard that she had to endure physical torture, Xie Yansheng was still reluctant to give up.
Mr. Xie chuckled and said, "My request has always been very simple. You must marry a wife and have children as soon as possible."
Xie Yansheng frowned deeply.
"As long as you obediently and An Zhen get married, I will never embarrass the woman named Wen. If she doesn't sign the settlement document, she won't sign it. If she wants to sue your mother, let her sue!"
Mr. Xie told his true purpose, "I went to the An family in person in the morning, and finally talked to An Xuezhi and his wife. They are also optimistic about the future, and are planning to settle the marriage between you and An Zhen the day after tomorrow."
Xie Yansheng pursed her thin lips tightly, and the veins on the back of her hands were bulging.
Only then did I realize that I had been tricked by the old man!
In order to get rid of An Zhen, he took advantage of Cheng Nijia's jealousy and posted the "car shock" video online, and used Wen Lan's hand to get An Zhen into the police station.
I originally thought that An Zhen and the An family would completely give up on him, but they didn't expect that they still wanted to be evil!
"For the sake of your marriage to An Zhen, I risked my life. Before the betrothal gift was given, I gave away a lake-view room, and the imperial green five-piece suit that I had kept for many years was also given to An Zhen. If you dare to mess around again, , I will take the woman named Wen——" Mr. Xie paused, "Think about it carefully!"
Xie Yansheng's eyes turned red and he stayed motionless in place.
Haha, Mr. Xie used Wen Lan as bait to lure him into the trap that had been laid long ago!
Compared with this old fox, he was still a little behind.
The choice is difficult, but it has to be made.
There was a vast ocean between him and Wen Lan, but after he and An Zhen got engaged, there were no more parallel lines that intersected...
In fact, from the moment Wen Lan became pregnant with someone else's child, he was already out of the game, but he was still unwilling to give up!
Xie's old house.
Uncle Zhong and several others took turns brainwashing Wen Lan, over and over again without stopping.
Wen Lan sat silently, without any thought of compromise.
When the clock on the wall pointed to eleven o'clock, Uncle Zhong received a call and said "Okay" several times in a row.
Wen Lan had a vague hunch that the outcome of whether he could leave the Xie family's old house would be decided soon!
Uncle Zhong put down his phone and gave Wen Lan a smile that couldn't be more fake, "You can go, Miss Wen."
"..."
Wen Lan was stunned.
There was a twist so quickly, she guessed that the phone call had played a role.
Uncle Zhong had already handed her her cell phone, and she hurriedly opened it and looked at it.
That random call was actually made to Jiang Jingci.
She sat for a long time, her legs were sore, she stood up holding on to the back of the chair, and walked out of the old house quickly.
"Wen Lan." Jiang Jingci, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, immediately came to greet him and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." She said calmly and lowered her eyes, "Thank you, Lao Jiang, for helping me again."
"It takes a little effort." Jiang Jingci also had his own selfish motives and did not say that Xie Yansheng was the one who could turn things around.
She obviously didn't want to get involved with Jiang Jingci anymore, but there seemed to be a hand pushing her towards Jiang Jingci.
She suddenly remembered Li Banxian's remarks about "official officials" and "partial officials". Which one did Jiang Jingci belong to in her destiny?
Jiang Jingci opened the passenger door for her. She was stunned, but she still got in.
After pulling on the seat belt, she remembered that her car keys and handbag had been left in her car.
"Please take me to the TT parking lot." For Jiang Jingci, all she could say now was "guilt".
Jiang Jingci expressed his sincerity time and time again, but was rejected by her every time.
But every time when she was in danger, Jiang Jingci would step forward.
"After receiving your call, I rushed to the parking lot. Your car keys and handbag were on the car seat, and I had someone drive the car to Bluewater Bay."
Jiang Jingci said as he took out her car keys from the storage box and handed them over.
She took it and thanked her again.
"When we were alone, you were the one who thanked me many times." Jiang Jingci's eyes were dark and he could not see the whole thing at a glance, "Don't be so polite in the future."
"good."
She couldn't think of what to say, so she could only agree.
It was already late at night, and there were very few cars and pedestrians on the road.
Jiang Jingci was driving very slowly, and Wen Lan, whose nerves had been in a state of tension, suddenly relaxed and curled up on the seat and fell asleep.
The car slowly drove into Blue Water Bay. Jiang Jingci did not wake her up, but also moved his seat back to lie down halfway.
The car has a panoramic sunroof, with stars twinkling above, and the spring night is so quiet——
The phone call that had been set to silent rang. When he saw the note on it, Jiang Jingci got off the car immediately.
Clicking the answer button, Xie Yansheng's deep and hoarse voice came: "Is she okay?"
"It's okay." Jiang Jingci answered straightforwardly.
"That's good." Xie Yansheng smiled sadly, and ended the call without saying anything else.
Jiang Jingci held the phone and stood in the night for a long time before returning to the car.
Wen Lan woke up when he closed the car door and hurried to get out of the car, "Sorry, I just fell asleep."
"Let me take you upstairs." Jiang Jingci didn't know what promise Xie Yansheng made to Mr. Xie, and was worried about her going upstairs alone, so he got out of the car.
"Old Jiang, since I met you, I have been causing you trouble. When I met those people today, I wanted to call the police, but in a hurry I randomly clicked in the call log, and I didn't expect to call you."
She was also a little scared and didn't chase Jiang Jingci away.
Although her explanation hurt Jiang Jingci, Jiang Jingci still smiled and said, "This is fate. If it really comes, it can't be stopped."
Wen Lan said goodbye to Jiang Jingci until the two came out of the elevator.
Jiang Jingci watched her close the door, and after going downstairs, he drove out of Blue Water Bay without stopping.
What Wen Lan didn't know was that Xie Yansheng was standing downstairs from her.
Xie Yansheng looked up and stared at the direction of her room, the helplessness and obsession in his eyes were wanton and crazy!
