Chapter 355 Self-respect
When Wen Lan woke up, the nanny was holding Yangyang and feeding her. Jiang Jingci was no longer in the ward.
She picked up her phone and looked at it. It was already 10:30 in the morning. There were more than ten missed calls from colleagues alone!
She called back and solved two urgent matters on the phone remotely before getting out of bed.
She looked at Yangyang. Yangyang was very energetic and smiled sweetly at her.
She told the nanny to take good care of Yangyang and then left the hospital.
On the way back to TT, she accidentally turned on the car radio and heard the news that Xie Yansheng and An Zhen were getting divorced.
The host was pointing fingers like a bystander, turning this divorce into a bloody feud between the rich and powerful.
He mentioned her more than once - Xie Yansheng's ex-wife, saying that after Xie Yansheng's first marriage ended, the two still had feelings for each other.
Wen Lan became more and more upset as she listened, so she simply turned off the car radio.
Since the media dared to talk about Xie Yansheng and An Zhen's divorce, her first reaction was that Xie Yansheng was deliberately waging a war of public opinion.
But it didn't seem like Xie Yansheng would drag her into this.
The phone call brought her back to reality. It was Jiang Jingci.
After a little thought, she still pressed the answer button.
"Why did you leave? I just packed breakfast for you." Jiang Jingci's voice was very urgent, "Is it too late to return to Shuyuan Mansion? I'll send it to you right away."
"I'm going to meet a client. It's probably past lunch time when I finish work. You can eat by yourself." She didn't want to see Jiang Jingci and lied.
Jiang Jingci didn't pester her this time, but took the initiative to hang up the phone.
Ten minutes later, Wen Lan returned to TT.
Walking into the revolving door on the first floor, she saw Jiang Jingci sitting in the public lounge.
She felt extremely guilty, but still said hello: "Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm bringing you food." Jiang Jingci picked up the paper bag on the coffee table and handed it over, deliberately saying meaningfully, "Thank you for your hard work last night."
"You're welcome!" She already felt the look of the girl at the front desk watching the show, and hurriedly took it and thanked her.
Jiang Jingci's eyes were deep, and he had no intention of leaving, "I'm going to order two pairs of trousers. Can I help you choose after you finish your meal?"
She wanted to refuse, but she couldn't find a reason.
Because Jiang Jingci was a senior customer of TT.
"You sit down first, I'll go get the fabric booklet." She put down the paper bag and went to the men's clothing customization studio next door.
Jiang Jingci stared at her slender back, and his heart tightened inexplicably.
Soon, Wen Lan returned with two thick booklets. Although he knew that he was trying to get close to her, he still patiently made recommendations.
His real intention was not to drink, and he would say "yes" to whatever Wen Lan said.
"Didn't you say you wanted to choose two? I just recommended more than a dozen fabrics to you. Which one did you like?" Wen Lan asked.
"Then make one with each fabric." Jiang Jingci had just finished speaking when the sound of high heels suddenly came from the door!
Wen Lan raised her eyes and immediately met An Zhen's angry eyes!
The moment the two looked at each other, Wen Lan had a bad premonition. She took out her phone and was about to send a message to Xie Yansheng, but An Zhen stretched out his right hand to grab her phone!
Jiang Jingci reacted quickly, pulled Wen Lan behind him, and sternly scolded: "Mrs. Xie, please respect yourself."
"Jiang Jingci, you are still protecting her?!" An Zhen laughed in disbelief, "When Xie Yansheng and I are divorced, it's time to marry her. By then, you will be the joke of the whole Jiangcheng!"
Jiang Jingci saw that An Zhen was not here with good intentions, and ordered him to leave with a stern face, "Leave TT within a minute, otherwise I will make you pay for it. Listen carefully, my patience is limited, and I don't care whether you are Miss An or Mrs. Xie."
An Zhen, who was still arrogant and domineering a second ago, instantly became much more obedient, and her hateful eyes fell from Jiang Jingci to Wen Lan.
"Mr. Wen, come and teach me how to play with men?"
Wen Lan was so angry when she heard this that she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and fell on the sofa.
She had hypoglycemia and had not eaten breakfast yet. She was very flustered and short of breath. Not to mention arguing with An Zhen, she even had difficulty breathing.
Jiang Jingci did not speak again, but his eyes on An Zhen became more fierce.
After a short silence, An Zhen took the initiative to leave TT.
Wen Lan felt dizzy and leaned on the back of the sofa, unable to say a word.
"Is hypoglycemia coming on again?" Jiang Jingci was more nervous than her, and took out all the lunch boxes in the paper bag, "There just happened to be a portion of sweet and sour pork ribs in it, you should eat a few bites to relieve it."
Although her stomach was rumbling, she had no appetite at all. She barely cheered up and shouted to the girl at the front desk, "Xiao Lin, help me find some candy!"
"What a coincidence, I have it in my handbag!" Xiao Lin handed the candy in her bag to Wen Lan.
After two candies, Wen Lan was almost relieved.
Wen Lan's emotions did not calm down for a long time. Whenever she thought of what An Zhen had just said in public, she was embarrassed.
"I have something else to do, so I won't see you off." She slowly stood up with the help of the sofa backrest, and ordered Jiang Jingci to leave.
Jiang Jingci neither chased after him nor left tt.
Wen Lan was ashamed and angry when she returned to Zhou Qiao's office.
She locked the door and closed the curtains. She stayed in the dark for a long time before she had the courage to pick up her mobile phone which was set to silent mode.
She found Xie Yansheng's number and tried several times, but she didn't call it in the end.
Because she didn't want to cause trouble for Xie Yansheng anymore.
She turned on the computer, but found that she couldn't concentrate on her work at all.
She stood in front of the window, looking at the busy streets outside, and suddenly thought of Li Daxian!
Zhou Qiao's story had come true, and she regretted not letting Li Daxian guide them last time.
In less than a minute, Wen Lan ran straight to the parking lot with her handbag and car keys.
When she walked out of TT with a heavy heart, she didn't see Jiang Jingci who was still sitting in the rest area.
Jiang Jingci followed curiously, drove behind her car out of the city, entered the provincial road, and then turned into a small mountain village surrounded by mountains and rivers.
Wen Lan quickly found Li Daxian's house, but found that the door of Li Daxian's house was closed after getting off the car.
Hey, Li Daxian closed the door again.
She didn't get discouraged and stood at the gate waiting.
An hour later, Jiang Jingci, who was hiding not far away, couldn't bear it anymore and got out of the car and walked over.
Seeing Jiang Jingci, she was surprised.
"I saw you coming out of TT, and I followed you all the way here because I was afraid something might happen to you." Jiang Jingci hurriedly explained.
She said "Oh" and didn't hide it from Jiang Jingci anymore, "There lives a great immortal who can predict the future and has the ability to communicate with spirits. I came here to ask him for some advice."
