Chapter 516: Date
Wen Lan was somewhat puzzled.
At the beginning, Xie Jianning threw Xiaotong to Shen Yi and hid away. Shen Yi would rather entrust Xiaotong to Jiang Jingci than take him back to Beijing.
Now, Tao Ningwan has just given birth to a child for Shen Yi, how can she accommodate Xiaotong?
"Ningwan had placenta previa when she gave birth, and her uterus was removed to save her life." Shen Yi spoke slowly.
Although Wen Lan was not familiar with Tao Ningwan, she had just given birth, so she naturally knew how terrible "placenta previa" was. "It is said that as long as there is a prenatal checkup, the placenta previa should not be discovered during delivery."
"I didn't know until Ningwan was pushed into the delivery room that she had been diagnosed with placenta previa during the prenatal checkup, but because she wanted to give birth to this child, she kept it from me and her family." Shen Yi's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were full of heartache.
Wen Lan sighed sincerely, "You can have another child later, why gamble with your body."
"It was very difficult for her to get pregnant, and she was reluctant to abort the child." Shen Yi's eyebrows showed a trace of sadness, "Maybe it's because I let Xie Jianning down, and God is punishing me in this way."
Wen Lan took a breath.
She had no sympathy for Shen Yi.
When she heard that Shen Yi and Xie Jianning were suing to get back the custody of Xiaotong, she thought Shen Yi had a change of heart and wanted to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, but she didn't expect that it was because Tao Ningwan lost her fertility after giving birth to only one daughter!
"Lanlan, am I very selfish?" Shen Yi saw some disgust on her face and asked with a wry smile.
Wen Lan did not hide her disappointment, "Your wife has lost her fertility, don't forget, Xie Jianning has lost her fertility too. You still have your wife and daughter. If Xiaotong is taken away from Jianning, Jianning will have nothing."
"She won't die alone. She will definitely have another boyfriend and start a new relationship. It's better to give Xiaotong to me." Shen Yi was adamant.
Wen Lan couldn't listen any more, "Jianning had a lot of courage to give birth to a child for you out of wedlock. You abandoned them at that time, why bother to stab Jianning in the heart now!"
Shen Yi was stunned by the retort, and Wen Lan got in the car and left.
The car started and slowly drove out of the parking lot.
Wen Lan saw Shen Yi still standing there in the rearview mirror, staring in the direction where her car left, and an unspeakable disgust surged in her heart.
Haha, this is the white moonlight of her youth.
"Mom, you seem to hate Uncle Shen very much." The warm and tender voice interrupted Wen Lan's thoughts.
"No." Wen Lan lied against her will, "Uncle Shen also gave you a toy, how could I hate him."
"Mom not only hates Uncle Shen, but also Uncle Jiang." Nuan Nuan muttered while fiddling with the toys given by Shen Yi, "Mom only likes Dad."
"Of course Mom likes Dad, otherwise how could you have a happy life." Wen Lan gently pinched Nuan Nuan's little face, "We will go back to Jiangcheng tomorrow morning, and you can see your godmother again."
Nuan Nuan asked anxiously: "Can I stay with my godmother for a few days?"
"No." Wen Lan refused decisively.
Nuan Nuan snorted in disappointment.
The next day, Xie Yansheng's family of five, plus Xue Qi and three nannies, returned to Jiangcheng in a mighty manner.
Wen Lan wanted to take Nuan Nuan to see Zhou Qiao, but Nuan Nuan had not been back to the old house yet, and insisted on going back to the old house with Xie Yansheng.
Wen Lan couldn't stop her, so she had to let her go.
Although she had three children with Xie Yansheng, she didn't want to go to the Xie family's old house.
The three children and Xie Yansheng were not around, Wen Lan felt empty and drove to TT.
Xie Yansheng originally said that he would send the children back in half an hour at most, but he called near noon and said that the relatives of the Xie family had come and were very happy to see the three children, so he would go back after lunch.
Wen Lan guessed that it was most likely that Mr. Xie left the children behind, so she didn't say much.
Zhou Qiao ordered lunch at a western restaurant near TT. After the two of them ordered, they saw Jiang Jingci and a tall woman walking in, talking and laughing.
The woman was about 30 years old, with shoulder-length curly hair, gentle eyebrows and eyes, and wore a very textured royal blue suit and nude gauze skirt.
Her facial features were not the type that made Wen Lan stunning at first sight, but the type that became more and more charming the more you looked at her. The gentleness and quietness that emanated from her body added a lot of points to her.
With just a short glance, Wen Lan thought of eight words in his mind: a good wife and a good mother, suitable for family and family.
Before Jiang Jingci cast his eyes on Wen Lan, Wen Lan lowered her eyes and looked at her phone.
"Oh, the iron tree blooms." Zhou Qiao muttered softly, and stood up to greet Jiang Jingci.
Since Jiang Jingci's wife passed away, there has only been one Wen Lan by his side. This time, there was a woman accompanying him, which immediately aroused Zhou Qiao's curiosity.
Zhou Qiao smiled and greeted him, "Old Jiang, I thought you went back to Australia, but it turns out you are dating a beautiful woman here."
"I was delayed by some company matters. I will leave tomorrow afternoon." Jiang Jingci replied slowly, "I recommend you, the grilled foie gras and caviar in this restaurant are good."
Wen Lan did not raise her eyes, pretending to be looking at her phone. When she heard him say "you guys", her eyebrows couldn't help but frowned.
"Thank you. I'll ask the waiter to add the order right away." Zhou Qiao snapped his fingers at the waiter, then smiled and looked at Jiang Jingci and the woman beside him, "When did Old Jiang get such a beautiful and elegant girlfriend?"
"Just ordinary friends, just met, having a meal together." Jiang Jingci's expression was calm without any waves, "Let me introduce, the person next to me is Song Yun, a professor of the School of Literature at Jiangda. This is Zhou Qiao, the boss of TT."
Song Yun's face froze when she heard Jiang Jingci say "ordinary friends".
When Zhou Qiao greeted her, she forced a smile and shook hands with Zhou Qiao, "It's my honor to meet the successful, young and beautiful President Zhou."
"Professor Song is really good at talking." Zhou Qiao smiled back, "When you have time to come to TT, all clothes will be discounted by 40% for Professor Song. You are welcome to do whatever you want, I won't disturb your world of two."
When Wen Lan thought that this embarrassing scene was entering the countdown, Song Yun's eyes moved to Wen Lan, "The beauty sitting opposite President Zhou looks so familiar, I seem to have seen her in TT's previous fashion show-"
Now Wen Lan couldn't pretend to be cool, but she didn't stand up, just put down her phone and nodded slightly to Song Yun, "I am Wen Lan."
"It turns out that you are Miss Wen Lan, the chief designer of TT. I have heard a lot about you." Song Yun's smile at this time was as fake as it could be.
Wen Lan didn't look at Jiang Jingci, but she could feel that Jiang Jingci's eyes were fixed on her.
With Song Yun's resentful gaze, Wen Lan felt uncomfortable all over.
"You guys finally got together, let's have a good chat, I won't disturb you." Jiang Jingci spoke to end the current Shura scene.
