Chapter 571 Daydream
When Xie Yansheng went downstairs, the engine sound of Nuannuan's car had faded away.
Wen Lan fell to the floor and shed silent tears.
In all these years in Beijing, Xie Yansheng had never seen Wen Lan so devastated, and he called out "Lanlan" with heartache.
Wen Lan stood up with his help, looking gloomy, and fell into Xie Yansheng's arms and murmured, "She went to the hospital again."
"Let her go, you can control the person but not the heart." Xie Yansheng took out a stack of tissues from the table and wiped her tears, "Just pretend that you never gave birth to this daughter."
Even though Wen Lan couldn't swallow this breath, she still resisted the urge to go to the hospital to find Nuannuan.
In the end, she was still afraid that her relationship with Nuannuan would return to the freezing point again.
Although she also wanted to pretend that she had never given birth to this daughter, as Xie Yansheng said, she really couldn't do it now.
The nanny prepared six dishes and a soup. Wen Lan and Xie Yansheng sat in the dining room for a while and went upstairs without eating a few bites.
Xie Yansheng went to the study to work overtime, and Wen Lan took a lot of effort to convince herself not to think about this troublesome matter.
Wen Lan's anger had just subsided, and in the middle of the night she began to get angry again because Nuannuan had not returned from the hospital.
Wen Lan was embarrassed to call her, so she asked Xie Yansheng to call her. He called her four or five times in a row, but she didn't answer.
Xie Yansheng was so angry that he threw his phone on the ground and cursed, "Throw her things out of the house tomorrow!"
Wen Lan felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't say a word of comfort.
After taking a shower and lying on the bed, both of them tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Xie Yansheng made a pot of coffee and went to the study. Wen Lan was still worried about Nuannuan and drove to the hospital.
When he went out, Xie Yansheng not only did not stop him, but also said, "Drive carefully."
When Wen Lan appeared on the floor where Jiang Guan's ward was again, she was in a very heavy mood.
If Nuannuan answered a phone call, she would not come here to be abused.
In fact, she shouldn't have worried about Nuannuan in the hospital, but she was still dissatisfied with Jiang Guan. Since she couldn't sleep at home, she might as well come and see if she could take Nuannuan home.
The door of the ward was closed, and the warm light on the glass window made Wen Lan upset.
She raised her hand and was about to knock on the door, but a warm hand grabbed her wrist and took her to the staircase.
When she saw that it was Jiang Jingci, she hurriedly shook off the hand on her wrist.
Jiang Jingci let her go only after he took her to the staircase.
"Nuannuan just finished the IV with Jiang Guan, and the two children are resting. What are you doing in here at this time!" Jiang Jingci scolded in a low voice.
Wen Lan was even more furious when she heard the word "rest". "I'm here to take my daughter home!"
"Let's talk." Jiang Jingci looked at her deeply, his voice full of sincerity and expectation. "For the future of the two children, some things should not be said now-"
"I have nothing to say to you!" Wen Lan's eyes were full of disgust. "You and Jiang Guan should not be wishful thinking. Nuan Nuan will never look back!"
Jiang Jingci raised his eyebrows. "Wen Lan, I hope you can calm down and listen to me calmly."
"You fight for the best interests for your son. Similarly, I will not let my daughter fall into the trap set by Jiang Guan." Wen Lan said, "You and I are at completely opposite angles, so there is nothing to talk about."
"Wen Lan, don't say angry words. Touch your heart and tell me, can you and Xie Yansheng stop Nuan Nuan from choosing Jiang Guan?" Jiang Jingci twisted his eyes together.
Wen Lan was touched in the sore spot and snorted, "Are you so sure that Nuannuan will choose Jiang Guan?"
"I am very sure." Jiang Jingci looked stubborn, and suddenly took a deep breath and said slowly, "In fact, you don't have to look at Jiang Guan with tinted glasses. Except that he is older than Nuannuan, you can't find any other faults. I thought that when Jiang Guan is discharged from the hospital, I will give you a betrothal gift and settle their marriage."
"Marriage?!" Wen Lan thought it was ridiculous, "Jiang Jingci, I want to know, who gave you and your son such a big face?"
"I only respect the facts." Jiang Jingci looked at Wen Lan with a deeper look, "Nuannuan and Jiang Guan are in love with each other. , we have been together for three years, it is time to have an explanation. Please rest assured, the betrothal gift our Jiang family gives to Nuannuan will definitely be more generous than the daughter-in-law you will marry in the future. "
"Jiang Jingci, what are you daydreaming about?" Wen Lan's eyebrows were full of sarcasm, "Do you think I will let my daughter marry your son? Even if I break off relations with Nuannuan, I will not become your in-law!"
"I know what you are taboo about." Jiang Jingci took another step towards her, his voice full of endless melancholy, "Back then, Wen Jinyin handed you to me, and I didn't touch you. Saying I touched you was just a trick to alienate you and Xie Yansheng."
Wen Lan's handbag fell to the ground with a "pop".
The unbearable period that she had long forgotten suddenly came back, like poison in her blood, devouring her internal organs and every cell in her body.
Her eyes were sparkling with tears, and she murmured for a long time: "What did you say——"
Jiang Jingci pursed his lips, complaining with bitterness in his voice, "Although we have been husband and wife for more than a month, I have never taken advantage of you from beginning to end, not even in Ruyi Garden."
"Really?" Wen Lan choked up.
Jiang Jingci pulled a helpless look at the corner of his lips, "At that time, I mustered up the courage to try many times, but in the end reason overcame desire. After you got pregnant, even if I acted out such a realistic scene in front of you, I couldn't separate you and Xie Yansheng."
Wen Lan's legs were a little stiff, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
The humiliation more than 20 years ago turned out to be fake!
At this moment, her heart was spinning a thousand times, and all kinds of regrets were stuck in her throat, unable to come up or come down.
Dissatisfaction and anger lingered in her mind, reminding her of the child she had aborted.
Only one month old——
If she had known that the child had nothing to do with Jiang Jingci, she would definitely have given birth to her child. However, things changed. Although Jiang Jingci did not take advantage of her, the child died because of Jiang Jingci.
After her miscarriage, Jiang Jingci not only said some outrageous words in front of her, planting seeds of doubt in her, but also ordered confinement meals for her to be delivered to Tinglan Mansion.
She always thought that she had been violated by Jiang Jingci, and for a long time she was very resistant to Xie Yansheng and wouldn't even let him touch her. Fortunately, Xie Yansheng was very patient and the two of them overcame that hurdle together.
"Wen Lan, I solemnly say I'm sorry to you now." Jiang Jingci was silent for a moment and turned his gaze away from her, "I like you and admire you, but I have not broken the bottom line of human ethics with you. So. , you can’t deny Jiang Guan because of me.”
The humiliation and grievances that Wen Lan had accumulated for many years flooded into his heart, and tears fell down.
Just as Jiang Jingci was about to open his mouth to comfort him, he saw a tall man standing not far away, listening to their conversation.
"Thank you for the banquet." Jiang Jingci called out the man's name, "The secret that has been hidden in my heart for twenty years has now been told to you——"
