Leng Xunze did not know what to say, nor did he want to discuss the topic.
Yuan Jiamiao did not hear him speak and quickly changed the subject, "By the way, my sister will be back in the country in a few days. You should come then."
"Okay, depending on the situation."
...
Song family villa.
Song Na sat on the sofa, listening to Leng Xunze's heartless words, her hands twisted together, gritting her teeth in hatred.
Wen Yan!
As she lost herself in thought, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing the contact name, she answered, "Dad."
An angry voice came from the other end, "Daughter, I already know about the situation in the country. How dare Leng Xunze act like this? The capital is not solely dominated by his Leng family. Your brother and I are returning now. You don't need to worry about anything."
"Dad, it's all because of that Wen Yan!" Song Na's eyes flared with anger when she mentioned Wen Yan.
The man frowned upon hearing this, "Wen Yan! Is she that abandoned eldest daughter of the Wen family?"
Song Na nodded, "It's her. She and Leng Xunze are already married."
The man's brow furrowed tightly, "I understand. I will deal with this Wen Yan!"
Song Na's lips curved into a smile, "Good."
In the hospital.
The moment Wen Yan pushed open the door, Bai Quan happened to see her. She smiled and said, "Quan Quan."
Bai Quan looked at her and smiled, beckoning her, "Yan Yan, come and sit down quickly."
Wen Yan nodded, placed the porridge box on the bedside table, and looked at her. Not seeing Rong Beifeng, she asked, "Quan Quan, where is Rong Beifeng?"
Bai Quan opened the porridge box and replied, "Something urgent came up at the company, and he had to go back to handle it."
Wen Yan understood and then glanced at the time, "Quan Quan, I have something to take care of now. I'll come back to accompany you at noon."
"Okay, take your time," Bai Quan said with a smile.
She raised her eyebrows, stood up, and turned to leave the room. As soon as she exited the hospital, she received a call from Ye Shu, "Sister Ye."
"Wen Yan, I'm here this morning. You can come over now."
Wen Yan smiled, "Okay, I'll call you when I arrive."
Ye Shu replied, "Mm."
She hung up the phone, hailed a taxi by the roadside, and told the driver the address, turning her head to look out the car window.
Watching the scenery flash by outside the window, she unconsciously thought of Leng Xunze, wondering what he was doing now.
Thinking of this, she sent Leng Xunze a message: Are you home?
After sending it and waiting for a while, she did not see a reply.
She figured Leng Xunze might be busy and didn't think much of it.
Half an hour later.
Wen Yan arrived at the filming location.
She took out her phone and called Ye Shu, "Sister Ye, I've arrived at the filming location. Where are you?"
Ye Shu's tone was calm, "Wen Yan, you go inside. I'll come out to meet you now."
"Mm."
She hung up the phone and walked inside with her phone. As she neared the center of the venue, Ye Shu's voice reached her ears, "Wen Yan, over here."
Wen Yan turned her head and saw Ye Shu, dressed in professional attire, walking towards her.
She smiled and greeted, "Sister Ye, I'm not late, am I?"
Ye Shu's attitude towards Wen Yan had improved somewhat compared to before, "No, I just arrived too. Let's go inside. I'll tell you about the work you'll be doing."
Wen Yan nodded.
The two walked through the filming location and came to a building. She followed Ye Shu inside, and Ye Shu said, "Wen Yan, for the historical drama I'm about to film, I'll tell you the costume requirements later. I hope you can produce the finished product as soon as possible. We start working in three days."
Wen Yan heard this and felt that three days to design the costumes was not too rushed. She did not arrogantly agree immediately, "Sister Ye, I need to see your requirements for the clothing before I can judge."
Ye Shu was satisfied with her attitude, "Follow me."
Soon, Ye Shu walked to a room door and said, "Come in. These are my requirements. Take a look."
Wen Yan walked to a table, looked down at the requirements on the paper, and then turned her gaze to Ye Shu, "These requirements are acceptable. I will produce the finished product as soon as possible. What about the styling?"
Ye Shu looked up and informed her, "Once the costumes are designed, we can proceed to the next step."
"Okay."
As it was nearing noon.
Just as Wen Yan was about to leave, Ye Shu said calmly, "It's not easy to get a taxi here. I'm heading back to the city anyway, I can give you a ride."
Wen Yan thanked her, "Then thank you, Sister Ye."
Ye Shu shook her head and chuckled, "It's nothing. You and Leng Xunze are already married, no wonder he helped you."
Wen Yan gave a faint smile, "Sister Ye, you know too."
She hadn't expected Ye Shu to suddenly bring this up.
Ye Shu nodded, "I knew Leng Xunze wouldn't help you for no reason. I've never seen him so attentive to a woman before!"
Wen Yan felt a warmth spread through her heart upon hearing this.
Ye Shu continued, "Wen Yan, are you planning to have a child?"
Wen Yan's face turned slightly red, and she replied, "We're not planning to for now. Maybe in the future."
Who could predict the future?
Ye Shu smiled and said, "He's a good man. You'll understand slowly."
Hearing Ye Shu talk about Leng Xunze, Wen Yan became interested, "Sister Ye, you seem to know Leng Xunze very well. How long have you known him?"
Ye Shu smiled, "I've known him for a long time. It was mainly because it was during the time when his career was just starting, and he urgently needed a drama to open up the market."
Wen Yan listened silently until they returned to the city. As she was getting out of the car, Ye Shu told her, "Wen Yan, don't get to know someone through others, and don't give up on someone easily."
Wen Yan felt that Ye Shu's words had a deeper meaning, but she didn't ask further and only hummed in response.
As soon as Ye Shu left, she received a call from an unknown number, "Wen Yan, where are you now? I'm Leng Xue. I want to talk to you. I'll send you the location now."
Wen Yan replied, "Okay."
After the call was hung up, she soon received the location sent by the other party.
Wen Yan took a taxi there.
An hour later.
In a teahouse.
Wen Yan and Leng Xue sat facing each other.
She looked at Leng Xue and spoke first, "Madam Leng, you called me here because of Leng Xunze, right?"
Leng Xue looked at her with some admiration, "Miss Wen, you are very smart. Since you know I'm here to talk about Leng Xunze, you should also know what Leng Xunze did for you today, right?"
Leng Xunze had not only withdrawn from the Leng Group but also given up his status as the heir of the Leng family.
She truly couldn't understand why Leng Xunze would do this for a girl from a mismatched background.
Wen Yan understood immediately that Leng Xunze had truly given up everything. She said faintly, "You want me to leave him?"
"Miss Wen, you should know what kind of predicament Leng Xunze will face if he loses the Leng family."
"Today, the Song Corporation withdrew their cooperation, and some people are already starting to stir."
Wen Yan smiled, "Madam Leng, if I recall correctly, you didn't care about Leng Xunze before, did you?"
