“Please don’t go. Accompany me to greet Grandpa, okay?” Lu Nanxin’s voice sounded pitiful as if she was pleading with Wen Jin.
Wen Zhanming maintained a stoic expression.
Lu Chongming’s face relaxed only after Wen Jin apologized.
However, Wen Jin genuinely apologized, and then he calmly pulled Lu Nanxin’s hand away from himself.
Lu Nanxin was slightly taken aback, and her growing sense of unease became even more pronounced.
Wen Jin didn’t say a word, nor did he offer any explanations. Instead, he swiftly turned and walked towards the entrance of the mansion.
There was no logical reason behind his actions. It was a pure impulse, an overwhelming desire to stop Yu Anwan.
Wen Jin’s actions left Lu Nanxin utterly devastated.
What did this signify?
Did Wen Jin choose Yu Anwan?
Moreover, he made that choice without hesitation in front of Lu Chongming.
Lu Nanxin’s complexion turned alarmingly pale as if she could barely stand. She staggered for a moment, and if it weren’t for Lu Chongming’s quick support, Lu Nanxin might have collapsed right then and there.
Wen Jin didn’t spare her a second glance and continued walking away.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Wen Zhanming remained silent, just watching. However, those who knew Wen Zhanming well were aware that he wasn’t the least bit displeased. He seemed to be in a good mood.
Wen Zhanyan showed no inclination to get involved in the conflict. He cleverly stated, “Great-grandfather, I’ll head back to my room.”
“Very well, you may go back.” Wen Zhanming nodded and didn’t attempt to stop him.
Wen Zhanming didn’t want Wen Zhanyan to witness what would unfold next. Wen Zhanyan huffed and turned to head upstairs.
The attitude of the Wen family seemed to have thoroughly infuriated Lu
Chongming. “You Wen family members, don’t overstep your boundaries.”
On the other hand, Wen Zhanming displayed no signs of anger. “Mr. Lu, the person Wen Jin chased after is Zhanyan’s birth mother and my guest. Is there a problem with that?”
“You…” Lu Chongming was left breathless.
He knew that Wen Zhanming didn’t like Lu Nanxin, but he hadn’t anticipated that Wen Zhanming would be so forthright, refusing to give an inch even in terms of the face.
The situation appeared to be on the brink of erupting.
Wen Zhanming continued to fan the flames by whispering to the butler beside him, “Go to the kitchen and instruct them to prepare two spicy dishes for lunch, the ones Anwan likes.”
“Yes,” the butler replied respectfully.
If Wen Zhanming wanted to save face for Lu Chongming, he certainly wasn’t about to oblige.
Lu Chongming’s expression grew even darker.
Lu Nanxin felt increasingly embarrassed. She bit her lip and dared not speak. At the very least, in front of Wen Zhanming, Lu Nanxin didn’t dare utter a word.
“Look, Nanxin, see how the Lu family is treating you. Why are you still so stubborn?” Lu Chongming cast a dissatisfied look at Lu Nanxin.
Given the status and standing of the Lu family, even if Lu Nanxin wasn’t born to Lu Chongming’s legitimate wife, he still held her in the palm of his hand.
Yet the prestigious heiress of the Lu family seemed to have no standing whatsoever in front of the Wen family.
Lu Chongming couldn’t accept it.
“I can’t tolerate the Wen family’s attitude,” he sneered. “You’re Daddy’s only precious one. If you marry into the Wen family, you won’t even know how much suffering awaits you in the future. I won’t agree to this.”
Lu Chongming simply couldn’t swallow this situation.
When Lu Nanxin heard Lu Chongming’s words, her expression fluctuated, and her breathing became increasingly labored.
She shook her head at Lu Chongming, her eyes reddening to the point where tears were on the verge of falling.
“Daddy, I only want Wen Jin!” Lu Nanxin declared straightforwardly.
“Come back with me!” Lu Chongming didn’t sound like he was open to negotiation.
He then turned to the bodyguards behind him and ordered, “Take the young miss back!”
“I don’t want it, I don’t want it. I want Wen Jin…” Lu Nanxin resisted and kept retreating.
However, Lu Chongming was determined to bring Lu Nanxin back. Wen Zhanming stood there expressionlessly and watched.
His gaze was even a little cruel.
It was best for Wen Zhanming that the engagement between Wen Jin and Lu Nanxin could be settled like this.
All these years, Wen Zhanming did not make any obvious statements because Lu Nanxin was Wen Jin’s savior.
However, Wen Zhanming could give Lu Nanxin money or even any resources that Lu Nanxin wanted. He was unwilling to give up the position of Mrs. Wen to Lu Nanxin.
YU Anwan was DaCK now.
“Daddy, please…” Lu Nanxin shook her head.
“Bring the young miss back! ” Lu Chongming was still determined.
This time, Lu Chongming would not leave Lu Nanxin in Jiang City. After the Fragrance Competition, Lu Chongming would bring Lu Nanxin back to the capital.
However, Lu Chongming did not expect Lu Nanxin to be so stubborn about Wen Jin.
The more he used force on Lu Nanxin, the more obvious her reaction was.
“Young miss…” The bodyguard was stunned.
Lu Nan’s heart went soft on the ground and he fainted.
Lu Chongming was also stunned for a moment. Wen Zhanming frowned. He did not expect Lu Nanxin to cause such a scene in the Wen family.
The butler reacted quickly. “Inform Doctor Xu immediately and send Miss Lu to the hospital.”
Doctor Xu was Lu Nanxin’s attending physician in Jiang City. The butler had been in the Wen family for many years and naturally knew about Lu Nanxin’s condition.
If something happened to Lu Nanxin in the Wen family, Wen Jin and Lu Nanxin would be involved.
Lu Chongming would not let it go so easily.
But now, Lu Chongming’s face had darkened. He hugged Lu Nanxin and walked out of the mansion without looking back.
Wen Zhanming stood there motionlessly, frowning as he looked at everything in front of him.
Then, Wen Zhanming sneered, “Lu Nanxin won’t use this to cling to the Wen family?”
“It’s hard to say.” The butler frowned.
Wen Zhanming lowered his eyebrows and said directly, “Let me see, is the Wen family that easy to deal with? Could the Lu family force someone over? If the Lu family wants to be so arrogant, then they must step over me, Wen Zhanming. ”
Wen Zhanming did not hold back at all. Then, he turned around and walked straight to his room.
He had no intention of caring about Lu Nanxin at all.
The Wen family instantly became noisy.
At the same time.
“Yu Anwan.” Wen Jin called out Yu Anwan’s name as she chased after him.
Yu Anwan had already gotten into the car and was driving towards the Wen family’s gate. The car window was tightly shut, and Wen Jin’s voice could not be heard at all.
However, the driver saw Wen Jin through the rearview mirror. “Miss, it seems that someone is chasing after us. Is he looking for you?”
Yu Anwan glanced at him indifferently. “Drive.”
She ignored Wen Jin’s action.
The chauffeur was a man of money, so he naturally couldn’t say anything. He started the engine and drove forward.
Yu Anwan sat quietly with her eyes lowered and did not look back.
However, when Wen Jin chased after her, Yu Anwan would be lying if she said she wasn’t surprised. It was as if Wen Jin had given her heart a heavy tug..
