At this time, Qi Sheng had also calmed down. He did not answer and reached out to press a button. The roof of the car suddenly opened. Under the black night sky, they could see clearly. The sound of the surging waves and the sound of the night wind instantly entered their ears.
Wen Xiyan didn't say anything else. It was rare for her to feel this moment of peace.
The white waves in front of him came one after another. A small crab suddenly crawled out of the wet sand after a wave and stumbled back into the sea.
Wen Xiyan looked straight at the little crab and did not think about anything else. She watched it fall and get up again. When it finally touched the shallow beach, the next wave hit again and pushed it back to its original position. It rolled and struggled to climb into the sea again, and the cycle repeated itself.
After a long time, Qi Sheng moved. She looked at him in surprise, ready to face the storm!
Unexpectedly, he did not say anything. He closed the sunroof, started the engine, and started to drive back. The car heading back wasn't as stormy as it was when they came. The car didn't drive fast, and it was slow, calm, and quiet.
Gradually, the car got on the highway and entered the downtown area. Finally, the small road they entered was quiet and familiar. She was surprised."You know the way to my house?"
" Mm." Qi Sheng agreed and didn't say anything else. He naturally knew where she lived. He had been there countless times when she was overseas.
The rest of the journey was silent. At the intersection in front of her villa, she said nervously,"Stop the car here. It's not good for my parents to see you.”
Qi Sheng stopped the car as he was told. There was no extra expression on his face, and Wen Xiyan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Thank you for sending me back."
Wen Xiyan thanked him and went to open the car door. Unexpectedly, she secretly tried to pull it, but there was still no reaction. She looked at Qi Sheng angrily.
"Give me your phone?" Qi Sheng's words were completely out of place.
"What are you doing?"
Before Wen Xiyan could ask, her handbag was snatched away by Qi Sheng. She rummaged through it and took out a silver-red mobile phone. After Qi Sheng quickly dialed a string of numbers, there was a vibrating sound in his pocket. Wen Xiyan then understood what was going on.
"Call me when you've thought it through. I'll be waiting for you anytime."”
"What?" Wen Xiyan asked in confusion.
Qi Sheng's lips curled into a cold smile." You forgot so quickly. Don't you want the contract anymore?”
Seeing Wen Xiyan's expression of not being able to react, Qi Sheng was not prepared to be nice.""If you've thought it through and are willing to be my mistress, I'll give you the Middle East and crime projects. However, the public bidding will be held in half a month.”
" You…" Wen Xiyan raised her hand angrily again, but this time she held back her temper,""I won't agree."
Qi Sheng threw his handbag into her arms and unlocked the car.""Get out of the car."
Seeing that Qi Sheng was not going to say anything, Wen Xiyan got out of the car angrily. The second she got out of the car, Qi Sheng started the car and sped away.
She walked towards the door with a heart full of thoughts. The matter of whether she agreed or not lingered in her mind. She was not as determined as she was when she said it, but if it was a normal relationship between a man and a woman, she would agree. After all…
" Sigh…" She sighed and opened the door. However, she suddenly paused. An unexpected voice sounded in her ear. She saw an unexpected person sitting on the sofa in her house.
Mother Wen, Chen Meiyi, turned around and saw her daughter standing at the door. She complained,""Where have you been all day? You only came back at this time. Do you know that Ming Yuan has been waiting for you for a long time?”
" Mom..." Wen Xiyan only called out once. Why was he here? But he couldn't ask?
The scene she saw during the day was still right before her eyes, yet this person came to her house as if nothing had happened. Did he not feel guilty at all?
"What are you standing there for?”Noticing that her daughter had not moved for a long time, Mrs. Wen shook her head and walked out. When she got closer, she noticed the clothes on her daughter.""Ya! Why are you dressed like this? You didn't wear this when you went out during the day.”
Wen Xiyan looked down and realized that she was still dressed for nightclubs. She looked a little embarrassed.
"Alright, alright. When Yanyan comes back, meet Mingyuan. I've been waiting for you all night.”Wen Jiannian said from inside.
Wen Xiyan had no choice but to follow her mother in.
Luo Mingyuan was already impatient from the long wait. If he didn't need the Wen Family, he wouldn't be so careful. He did like the Wen Family's daughter in the past, but it had been so many years and the feelings had long faded.
Seeing Wen Xiyan come in wearing such clothes, a look of disdain flashed in his eyes. This was the daughter of a noble family. Fortunately, he was not bewitched.
He stood up with a smile." Yanyan is back. I heard from my father today that she's back. I was anxious and came here without permission. It's really rude."”
Wen Xiyan stood there and smiled without answering. She could clearly see the disdain in Luo Mingyuan's eyes. Others wanted to humiliate you, but you didn't belittle yourself. Why should he care about a disloyal and untrustworthy person's attitude?
"Yanyan, talk to Mingyuan. You haven't seen each other for five years. Cultivate your relationship well. You're getting married soon.”Wen Jiannian said.
"Dad, what did you say? Married?" Wen Xiyan was shocked and stared at her father.
If she hadn't been so resistant before, she had finally seen Luo Mingyuan's true colors today. How could she not be surprised?
A trace of anger flashed across Luo Mingyuan's face. He smiled patiently and said,""We're engaged. I'm old enough for you to come back this time. It's time for me to start a family. I'm here today to discuss our marriage with uncle.”
"Ming Yuan is right. It seems that you are used to freedom.”Wen Family Nian said.
" Dad…" she called out in disbelief.
"Alright, alright. Have a good chat with Ming Yuan. If you're not used to it, you can push it back a little. Let's discuss it properly. There's no need to be unhappy.”Mrs. Wen was still on her daughter's side.
Unexpectedly, for Wen Xiyan, the wedding was put on the agenda, which made her feel a little lost and hesitant. She wanted to refuse, but there was no way to complain. If she did not refuse, she would accept such a fate. She resisted from the bottom of her heart.
"Yes, Auntie is right. Yanyan, we haven't seen each other for five years. I miss you so much.”
Wen Jiannian nodded. He felt that his daughter would not suffer any losses in the future. He was not the kind of person who would push his daughter into a fire pit for the sake of his company. Back then, he had considered many times and felt that this young man was not bad before deciding on this marriage. Now, it seemed that he had not done anything wrong.
"Alright, alright, let's go up and let the two young people talk.”Wen Jiannian stood up and pulled Mrs. Wen upstairs.
Mrs. Wen hesitated for a moment but still followed him.
Only the two of them were left in the living room. Facing Luo Mingyuan's smiling face, Wen Xiyan suddenly felt like a ferocious beast was opening its mouth wide, ready to swallow her.
She composed herself and walked to the sofa to sit down, maintaining her usual good posture.
When Luo Mingyuan saw this pleasing scene, he thought that it was not bad. In the future, he would have a rich lady at home and a slut outside. It was not bad to enjoy the happiness of both of them. He did not have to resist too much. Life was like sex. Since he couldn't refuse, he should enjoy it.
After thinking it through, his smile became more genuine. He sat on the sofa on the other side and did not show any enthusiasm as he sat next to Wen Xiyan.
"I haven't seen you in five years. Yanyan has become more beautiful again.”
The corner of Wen Xiyan's mouth twitched and she gave a fake smile. Facing such a person, she really couldn't remain calm, but she thought of Qi Sheng.
She suddenly stopped. Why was she thinking of him at this time? She could hear Luo Mingyuan's nagging.
"I know that you're unhappy and unwilling to marry me because we've been separated for too long. You're blaming me for not visiting you overseas for so many years. Sigh…I want to go too, but I'm busy with my career and neglected you. It's only right that you blame me, but you can't reject my deep feelings for you just because of this.”
Wen Xiyan was the kind of woman who would slowly come to her senses after losing control of her mind. Luo Mingyuan's words made her stomach churn. At the same time, she gradually thought of a way to deal with it. Now that the company was in crisis, she had to stabilize this man to get a chance to breathe. At the same time, she did not want to marry him. She could not just talk about it. Her parents would not believe her. She had to find evidence.
After thinking it through, she smiled and said apologetically, Mingyuan, thank you for your love for me. Just now..." He said a little embarrassedly,""It was too sudden for me to mention marriage all of a sudden. It was really too surprising and I wasn't mentally prepared for it at the moment, so…I hope you don't mind.”
Luo Mingyuan's eyes lit up and he excitedly went forward to hold Wen Xiyan's hand.
"I understand, I understand. You don't have to explain.”
It seemed that she was moved by his words just now. How could any woman resist his handsome appearance?
Rubbing Wen Xiyan's hand, he became even more affectionate.""Why would I mind? I only want to give you the best. I'll agree to anything you want.”
Wen Xiyan resisted the urge to pull her hand away and nodded with a smile,""But it's too sudden. Can you give me some time?”
A trace of displeasure flashed in Luo Mingyuan's eyes. Wen Xiyan saw it clearly. Her mind was spinning quickly. Luo Mingyuan had a woman outside and was living a carefree life. Usually, he would not think about getting married immediately. He was so anxious. There must be some special reason. She must find out. Maybe it could be a breakthrough point. Also…the man who brought her to catch him in the middle of the day?
The things that he hadn't noticed before, now that he was clear-headed and connected them one by one, made sense.
Her mind spun rapidly for a second, but Luo Mingyuan's unhesitating answer still rang in her ears.
"Of course, how can I refuse Yanyan's needs? However, don't take too long." The last sentence was the main point. He could not wait any longer.
Wen Xiyan nodded." Of course I know. I just returned to the country. There are still too many things to do. I'll be fine after some time."”
Luo Mingyuan was relieved after getting the answer. It was good that they could get married.
"It's getting late. Why don't you go back first? I'm a little tired and want to rest well.”
Luo Mingyuan didn't want to stay any longer, so he naturally agreed.
Wen Xiyan sent him to the door, and the two of them pretended to say goodbye. Seeing Luo Mingyuan's white Bentley go away, she heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to turn around and go home, a car horn sounded in the night.
Wen Xiyan was shocked. She turned around and saw someone getting out of the car under the glaring headlights.
