Wen Nian tugged Shen Jun along, followed by three other people.
Wei Lai was in a bit of a panic. She’d originally asked Wei Xiao to come and annoy Wen Nian. Why on earth did Shen Jun end up leaving with her? Wasn’t he supposed to be mad about how well Wen Nian’s ex-fiance treated her?
Wei Xiao apologized, saying, “Sorry for Wei Lai’s nonsense. She can be quite childish. You know how she is.”
“Shen Jun, I didn’t mean to upset you. It’s just that Wen Nian and my brother…” Wei Lai’s voice had a tinge of grievance, and she choked up a bit.
Jiang Chun quickly cut her off. “Wei Lai, that’s enough. Let’s not give Wen Nian the wrong idea again.”
Still, Wei Lai shook off Jiang Chun’s hand with reluctance and seemed like she wanted to keep following Shen Jun.
“I mean it. If you keep following me, 1’11 call the police!” Wen Nian’s voice suddenly got louder, drawing the attention of onlookers.
The Wei Family was well-known in Hai City, and thanks to the earlier video, many recognized Wei Lai. So, when they saw her tailing Wen Nian, a lot of people started whispering and pointing fingers at her.
Thinking of what had happened previously, Wei Lai stood on the spot dejectedly and did not continue to follow.
Wei Xiao, too, understood that Shen Jun was clearly upset. Going after him now wouldn’t do any good, so he stopped pestering.
Jiang Chun pulled Wei Lai to a corner. “You were too impulsive just now.”
“I didn’t want to, but it was just too much to bear. Why does Shen Jun like such a vixen?” Tears streamed down Wei Lai’s face. She felt genuinely wronged. Shen Jun hadn’t even spared her a glance from the beginning.
“Did you invite me here to create problems?” Wei Xiao chimed in, approaching with irritation. “Don’t forget who you are! If you stir up more trouble, watch out, or I might have to inform Grandpa.”
“Fine! Grandpa stands by me. Once 1 become Mrs. Shen, everything will change. Why are you being so harsh?” Wei Lai’s voice dropped, but her frustration was evident.
Jiang Chun’s words, especially the reference to “Mrs. Shen,” grabbed her focus. She spoke with a grin, giving her two cents. “You’re acting on impulse. They’re in a serious relationship now. Although Shen Jun and I have a history since childhood, I need to be cautious in my interactions with him. And the same goes for you. When two people are in love, they often overlook each other’s flaws unless something provokes them.”
Her words made the two pause and reflect. Wei Xiao and Wei Lai fell silent.
Wei Lai was thinking about how they were madly in love. But if Wen Nian were to betray Shen Jun, Shen Jun would come to realize Wen Nian’s true character and that would be her chance.
On the other hand, Wei Xiao thought of how well Wen Nian had treated him in the past. At that time, Wen Nian was indeed very easy to control. She would do whatever he said and never resist. When did Wen Nian’s feelings for him change?
Taking in the sight of the two of them, Jiang Chun knew that she had accomplished her goal. She quickly found an excuse to leave and head home.
Upon reaching home, Jiang Chun’s smile faded as she dwelled on Shen Jun’s treatment of Wen Nian earlier that day. Nevertheless, she remained patient. While the capital city was her battleground, causing trouble for Wen Nian now was not an impossible task at hand.
As they returned to the Shen residence, an awkward atmosphere hung between the two of them.
The tension persisted even after lunch. Although they were still working on practice questions together and were discussing about the questions, Shen Jun was clearly not in a good mood.
By the time Wen Nian finished the last question, the evening sky had already darkened.
Wen Nian asked carefully, “What would you like to have for dinner today? I noticed we have steak. Should 1 prepare that? And how about mango pudding?”
“Do you want to pair it with your favorite cake and have Wei Xiao wait in line?”Shen Jun asked.
As soon as Shen Jun said this, Wen Nian knew that he was jealous again.
“You’ve already said that the taste of food depends on who you’re sharing it with. Naturally, if 1 eat with my beloved boyfriend, I’ll find it delicious. If 1 were to eat with them, I’d be so annoyed that the food wouldn’t matter.”
Wen Nian pouted and kept shaking Shen Jun’s arm, smiling ingratiatingly.
Whenever Shen Jun saw her expression, half of his anger would dissipate. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her red lips fiercely. After several minutes had ticked by, he sensed his frustration ebbing away, and he couldn’t help but notice Wen Nian’s lips looking slightly swollen.
“Do you want me to help you cook?” Shen Jun finally smiled.
However, Wen Nian couldn’t felt happy. She didn’t know when it started, but Shen Jun liked to bite her gently every time they kissed, causing her mouth to swell for a while.
Just as she was about to “bully” Shen Jun, an ill-timed WeChat message from
Wei Xiao popped up on her phone..
