Wen Xiyan was having an awkward meal with the Luo family. Father Luo wanted to watch the daily news broadcast, so Eldest Madam Luo picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
The whole family was stunned when they opened it.
On the television, Luo Mingyuan's sweaty naked body was only wrapped in a scarf as he explained in a panic. On the bed, Song Qingxue was sobbing helplessly as she wrapped her body in a blanket. On the television screen, there were a few big words: " Luo Mingyuan, the young master of the Luo family, cheated on his mistress. Wen Xiyan's status is in danger."”
Wen Xiyan looked at these unsightly scenes. There was not a trace of sadness in her heart, but there was a kind of relief. She shook her head and ate quietly.
Father Luo was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He picked up his walking stick and pointed at the television as he cursed,"This unfilial son, hurry up and call him back. I want to teach him a lesson!”He coughed a few times as he spoke.
Eldest Madam Luo secretly scolded Luo Mingyuan for being disappointing, but she showed a pitiful expression on her face.""Calm down, Master. Maybe that woman seduced our Mingyuan. Look at how handsome and rich Mingyuan is. How many women are flocking to him? Besides, our Mingyuan is not such a casual person. Right, Xiyan?"
The last sentence was meant for Wen Xiyan. Wen Xiyan couldn't say anything and could only chuckle.
Seeing that the opportunity had come, Second Madam Luo said without a care,"What principles? What not being casual? As long as he's looking for a mistress, he's a casual man. The genuine wife was sitting at home while she went out to indulge in debauchery. Was this kind of man reliable?”
" You..." Second Madam Luo's words made Eldest Madam Luo's eyes widen, but she had nothing to refute.
Second Madam Luo proudly continued,""Then look at our Mecca. He doesn't go out to drink or find a mistress. Our Mecca is more reliable.”
Wen Xiyan listened to their bickering and was speechless. She just ate her food silently.
"Enough!" Mr. Luo roared angrily, and the two madams immediately shut their mouths.
Father Luo turned to Wen Xiyan and said apologetically,""Xiyan, I'm really sorry. I didn't know that this unfilial son would do this. It was getting late. When Mecca comes back, let him send you home.”
Wen Xiyan nodded lightly. She did not want to stay in this place at all. There was no warmth of home at all.
After sitting for a while more, Mecca lazily walked in from the door, the hair on his forehead gently sweeping his peach blossom eyes. He casually swept his gaze around, and finally, his gaze fell on Wen Xiyan. Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and smiled. That devilish gaze made Wen Xiyan feel uncomfortable all over.
Father Luo said seriously,"Mecca, go and send Xiyan back."?”
Mecca chuckled and said to Wen Xiyan,""It's my honor."
They were speechless along the way. The car drove steadily on the road. The surrounding trees slid backward. Wen Xiyan lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes without saying a word.
The air was narrow and ambiguous. Mecca suddenly said,""Don't be too sad. Eldest Brother couldn't help himself, so he made the mistake that all men would make. If you can't accept it, you can cancel the engagement with him.”
Wen Xiyan didn't say anything and just sat there quietly.
Mecca saw that she didn't speak, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He continued,""Furthermore, you didn't suffer any losses. People just don't say anything about your relationship with Qi Sheng. My big brother cheated on you outside, and you also had an ambiguous relationship with others.”
Wen Xiyan frowned. She didn't expect Mecca to expose her relationship with Qi Sheng so blatantly, and even said it as if nothing had happened.
Wen Xiyan's eyes turned cold and she said lightly,""Mr. Luo, you're worrying too much. I have nothing to do with CEO Qi at all, and we don't have any business interactions. What you said is all false.”
Mecca drove the car as if nothing had happened and did not say anything else. It was just that the look in the rearview mirror made Wen Xiyan feel very uncomfortable.
Soon, they reached home. Wen Xiyan did not even have the time to thank them before she ran home.
As soon as she entered, she saw Father Wen sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face, waiting for her.
Wen Xiyan felt a little guilty and wanted to tiptoe in, but she was stopped by a shout.
"Why didn't you say hello when you saw your parents? Where did you go today?”
Wen Xiyan pouted and acted coquettishly like a child,""I…I went to Luo Mingyuan's house today.”
Father Wen was so angry that his beard stood on end. He scolded,"Didn't you watch TV today? Luo Mingyuan actually did such a thing to ruin the family's reputation. Tell me, did you already know about it?”
Wen Xiyan could only tell the truth. Father Wen sighed after hearing this." I must be blind to have fallen for such a son-in-law. If you were really engaged to him, then the one who would be hurt would be my precious daughter."”
Seeing Father Wen's attitude change, Wen Xiyan struck while the iron was hot and said,""Dad, does that mean I can cancel my engagement with Luo Mingyuan?”
Father Wen nodded and said solemnly," Of course. Our Wen Family will not have such an immoral son-in-law. Besides, the company has already been turned around. We don't have to be at the mercy of the Luo Family anymore." I've decided to cancel your engagement!"
"That's great!" Wen Xiyan almost jumped up in joy. This engagement was not a responsibility to her, but a cage that imprisoned her. Now that the engagement was broken, she could focus on her career in peace.
This matter was handled very quickly. The next day, the newspapers were filled with reports of the two of them breaking off their engagement.
"The eldest young master of the Luo family has been kicked out of the house and the engagement has been annulled because of adultery.”
"The Wen family snatched the contract and the Luo family fell.”
Wen Xiyan sat in her office and read the news. She felt relieved as if a huge stone had been lifted off her chest. Just as she was about to drink a cup of coffee to reward herself, her phone rang.
Wen Xiyan picked up the phone and saw that it was Han Zixuan.
"Hello?"
"Xiyan, don't be sad. Luo Mingyuan, that bastard, isn't worth disappointing you. Let go of everything and stop thinking about those messy things.”
Han Zixuan's anxious and worried voice sounded on the other end of the phone. Wen Xiyan was amused but also felt a trace of warmth. She smiled and replied,"Zixuan, you don't have to worry about me. I'm not sad at all." Luo Mingyuan wasn't the person I wanted anyway. The annulment of the engagement just so happens to give me my freedom.”
Han Zixuan saw that Wen Xiyan was talking and laughing, and suddenly relaxed a lot. At the same time, a fire of hope rose in his heart. It seemed like he had a chance. Han Zixuan had been silently loving Wen Xiyan since school and was her guardian. However, he did not dare to confess because of his inferiority complex, so he missed it again and again. This time, Han Zixuan secretly made up his mind to seize the opportunity to make Wen Xiyan his girlfriend.
" Xiyan, are you free tomorrow? I want to treat you to a meal…"
Wen Xiyan was a smart person and immediately guessed Han Zixuan's intentions. She tactfully refused,""We still have to work on the proposal tomorrow. We'll start work soon. When the whole thing comes to a perfect end, how about we have a meal together?”
Han Zixuan was a little disappointed, but he still smiled and said,"Alright, I'll listen to you."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Xiyan leaned on the soft bed and looked at the neon lights outside the window. Her eyes slowly blurred, and in front of her eyes, Qi Sheng's handsome and cold figure appeared in front of her. It was like an illusion. Even if she couldn't touch him, she still wanted to fly into the fire.
She still remembered that night on the luxury cruise ship, showing off in a small and ambiguous space. There was teasing, gentleness, joy, and happiness... In Wen Xiyan's heart, it was a dream that she would never dare to touch. She was afraid that this dream would disappear like a bubble.
Her thoughts flew into the distance again, and her memories slowly returned to that night when the breeze blew gently.
When the cruise ship was about to end its journey, Qi Sheng accompanied Wen Xiyan to sit on the deck chair. The gentle sea breeze blew, entangling their hair.
Qi Sheng put his arm around Wen Xiyan's shoulder and said in a low and magnetic voice,""Xiyan, can you be my girlfriend?”
Wen Xiyan was intoxicated in his broad and safe embrace, enjoying the warmth. She could not help but agree to him, but she did not think about the consequences.
Qi Sheng's eyes, which were darker than the night sky, lit up, filled with joy and gratitude. The two of them sat there until dawn.
Reality was often crueler than imagined. On the day they got off the cruise, Qi Sheng was knocked unconscious and tied up in a small room.
However, when Qi Sheng opened his eyes, he saw Luo Mingyuan's annoying face.
Luo Mingyuan smiled maliciously as he smoked a cigar. Then, he burned Qi Sheng's shoulder with the butt. Sparks flew, and with a wisp of smoke, a firework appeared on Qi Sheng's shoulder.
Qi Sheng gritted his teeth and let the pain spread, but he did not say a word.
"Wow, you're quite stubborn. Alright, then I'll let you watch a video.”
Luo Mingyuan clapped his hands, and the attendant beside him turned on the camera. He could clearly see Wen Xiyan and her father sitting on the sofa, discussing something in a low voice.
Qi Sheng couldn't hear her clearly, so Luo Mingyuan raised his voice. Suddenly, Wen Xiyan shouted,""He's so poor. How can I like him?”
Just this sentence made Qi Sheng's mind go blank. The fireworks on his shoulder began to turn into a bright red. "Impossible!" he roared in a low voice. She's not that kind of person."
Luo Mingyuan smiled and patted his shoulder.""You? What kind of good life could a poor boy with nothing give Xiyan? Women were materialistic. If there was no material foundation, then everything would be over!”
Qi Sheng gritted his teeth, the pain in his heart coming wave after wave. Compared to the fireworks on his shoulder, he felt that his heart was riddled with holes.
Luo Mingyuan let Qi Sheng out the next day. From then on, Wen Xiyan never saw Qi Sheng again.
The passion in her heart was instantly extinguished, and Wen Xiyan felt that she had lost a chance to fly into the fire like a moth. Therefore, she was disheartened and listened to her father's request to get engaged to Luo Mingyuan.
Thinking back, Wen Xiyan didn't realize that her face was already covered in tears.
