She turned to the woman who had bumped into her, "Stop!"
The woman turned back impatiently, looking at Wen Yan, "What is it?"
Wen Yan had never met such an ill-mannered person. Not only did she not apologize after bumping into someone, but she was also so defiant. Wen Yan walked straight up to her, "You bumped into me, shouldn't you say sorry before anything else?"
The woman retorted quite reasonably, "I just bumped into you a little, and you're being so unforgiving. I haven't even complained about you hurting me!"
Wen Yan was almost amused to tears. She had seen unreasonable people, but never one so utterly unreasonable. "You almost knocked me over just now."
The woman glared at her, "I just bumped you a little, are you trying to extort me? Let me tell you, my classmate is someone you can't afford to offend. Be sensible and don't pester me anymore."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yan let out a cold laugh and walked silently to the woman, then directly stepped on her foot.
The woman shrieked in pain, "Ah... you..."
Wen Yan ignored the anger in her eyes and explained, "Reason is for reasonable people. Against someone like you, one should make you taste the same."
With that, she turned and left.
The woman's face turned red with anger. She glared at Wen Yan and said, "You little b*tch, I'll tear you apart!"
As she spoke, the woman was about to step forward, but Leng Xunze directly blocked her and said coldly, "Scram!"
Seeing the man in front of her, the woman, though angry, felt his oppressive aura. "Forget it, I have something to do today. I won't bother with you."
Saying that, she turned and made a call, "Rui'er, someone has bullied me!"
When Wen Yan looked at the sales associate, the associate was walking over with a dress. "Hello madam, are you still interested in this dress?"
"Yes, thank you." Wen Yan didn't want the incident to ruin her mood.
After trying it on in the fitting room, she decisively decided to buy the dress. When it was time to pay, Leng Xunze walked over and handed a card to the sales associate, "Swipe it."
Wen Yan looked at Leng Xunze with surprise, "I can pay for it myself."
The sales associate looked at Wen Yan and replied with a smile, "Madam, your husband is so good to you. The dress you chose is one of the most expensive in the store. You are truly blessed."
Wen Yan smiled, "Thank you."
She had initially wanted to deny their relationship, but then she remembered what Leng Xunze had said and didn't speak up.
Leng Xunze heard the sales associate's compliment and his lips curled slightly. "Wrap it up."
The sales associate nodded excitedly, "Madam, please wait a moment."
A moment later, Wen Yan walked out with the dress and looked at Leng Xunze, "Thank you."
Leng Xunze acknowledged her with a sound, "I'll pick you up the afternoon after tomorrow."
Wen Yan hummed in agreement, "Okay."
As she walked out of the hall, she received a call from Bai Quan, "Quan Quan."
Bai Quan said with a smile, "Yan Yan, where are you!"
Wen Yan recounted what had happened at the mall and asked, "What's wrong, Quan Quan? Are you getting discharged soon?"
Bai Quan chided playfully, "I thought you'd forgotten about me! The doctor said I can be discharged in two more days."
If she stayed any longer, her body would become completely useless from lying down.
More importantly, the company was entirely managed by her assistant, and she had to get back quickly.
Wen Yan apologized with a smile, "Quan Quan, I'll come see you later."
Bai Quan smiled, "I was just teasing you! I don't need you to take care of me now."
During her hospital stay, Rong Beifeng had been by her side constantly. She hadn't experienced such warmth even after many years of marriage, but she felt it now as she was on the verge of divorce.
Wen Yan knew what Bai Quan was referring to. "So, Quan Quan, has your attitude towards Rong Beifeng improved?"
Bai Quan replied stubbornly, "It has improved somewhat, and I'm not made of stone."
Wen Yan continued, "Quan Quan, do you still want a divorce now?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Quan fell silent. She didn't know how to answer, as she wasn't sure if it was love.
What if Rong Beifeng was merely fulfilling his duties as a husband, and not out of love!
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt lost.
Her heart had been hurt once before, and she didn't want to be hurt again.
Bai Quan replied ambiguously, "I don't know."
Wen Yan knew at once that Bai Quan's heart had softened a little. She raised an eyebrow and said, "Quan Quan, whatever decision you make, I will support you."
Bai Quan smiled, "Okay."
Seeing that they were nearing the studio, Wen Yan said, "Quan Quan, I have to go. I'm almost at the studio."
Bai Quan hummed in response.
After she hung up, Leng Xunze glanced at her, "Your best friend is going through a divorce?"
Wen Yan was surprised that Leng Xunze would ask this question and replied, "Yes."
"You really are good friends. She's going through a divorce, and you're going along with it." Leng Xunze recalled the events of that morning, and a surge of inexplicable anger rose in his heart.
Wen Yan blinked, her gaze falling on the man. She explained, "Our divorce has nothing to do with my best friend."
What was he thinking? Did he think she was a scumbag?
Leng Xunze's expression was calm, "Then tell me, why do you want to divorce me?"
He had always been puzzled. She was always the one who wanted a divorce. Was he really that bad?
Wen Yan thought for a moment and decided to be direct, "Do you think we are compatible in all aspects?"
Leng Xunze looked at her, remaining silent.
Wen Yan explained, "You are the young master of the Leng family, the heir to the Leng family. I am the abandoned eldest daughter of the Wen family. Before I knew you were the young master of the Leng family, I thought we were quite compatible."
"But after knowing you were the young master of the Leng family, a rift formed between us. Because of your identity, I was repeatedly put in danger."
Leng Xunze felt that Wen Yan's words made sense. He did care about her family background and felt that their relationship wouldn't last.
But slowly, he realized he had grown accustomed to her presence and didn't want her to leave him. Thinking of this, he said solemnly, "Do you still want to divorce me now?"
Wen Yan nodded, "Mr. Leng, I believe that for two incompatible people, ending it sooner is the best thing for both of us."
Leng Xunze didn't answer but instead asked, "Do you know why I like you? Do you know why I didn't propose a divorce even after I knew your identity?"
Wen Yan looked bewildered. She truly didn't know.
Leng Xunze looked at her, "Because I like your never-give-up spirit in everything you do. I like that when you're bullied, you don't endure it and retaliate immediately."
Wen Yan was completely stunned.
She hadn't expected Leng Xunze to notice these things.
Leng Xunze leaned closer and took her hand, "Why have you become so hesitant now? Where is that spirit of yours that never gives up?"
Wen Yan lowered her gaze, looking at the hand holding hers. Her face flushed slightly. "I don't like you, so why should I care about these things? I feel it's too exhausting, so Leng Xunze, let's separate."
