Soon, Yu Anwan’s eyes were covered with a layer of malice, but it was only for a moment. Yu Anwan acted as if no one was around.
She took the initiative to hook her arms around Wen Jin’s neck, but Lu Nanxin saw her actions.
Whenever Lu Nanxin held something important, Yu Anwan didn’t hesitate to cut her down.
On the other hand, Wen Jin remained composed when Yu Anwan took the initiative. His demeanor seemed to silently consent to Yu Anwan’s actions.
Yu Anwan lightly rested one hand on Wen Jin’s shoulder.
With her other hand, she casually stroked Wen Jin’s face, and even her words became less serious.
“Lu Nanxin is right over there. President Wen, deal with your family matters properly. We can start the bet tomorrow!” Yu Anwan reminded Wen Jin with a playful smile.
Not only did she say it, but Yu Anwan also got physical with Wen Jin.
This happened right in front of Lu Nanxin. When she let go of Wen Jin, it appeared as if she casually noticed something, and the faint fragrance of orchids wafted into Wen Jin’s nostrils. That restlessness instantly surged like a tidal wave.
“What are you doing?” Wen Jin lowered his voice and asked Yu Anwan.
“Seducing you,” Yu Anwan replied without embarrassment.
However, in the next moment, Yu Anwan distanced herself from Wen Jin. She turned around and hailed a taxi that happened to be approaching.
Just as Yu Anwan was about to get into the car, Wen Jin quickly grabbed her wrist.
Yu Anwan looked at Wen Jin with a faint smile. “President Wen, why don’t you get in the car with me? Or would you prefer to go back and find Lu Nanxin?”
Yu Anwan presented Wen Jin with a multiple-choice question.
Her attitude was remarkably open.
Wen Jin simply looked at Yu Anwan, her gaze now concealing even more. And
Yu Anwan just stared back at Wen Jin.
Yu Anwan knew Wen Jin’s answer very well.
For the sake of Lu Nanxin, Wen Jin didn’t hesitate to push herself into a corner, even risking conflict with Wen Zhanming. How could Wen Jin choose her and give up on Lu Nanxin?
After all, one word from Lu Nanxin might land her in the ICU.
Tsk, tsk, how fragile.
Yu Anwan chuckled mockingly and lightly brushed away some imaginary dust from Wen Jin’s shoulder. She didn’t hold back at all. “Alright, Wen Jin, stop pretending here. Bye.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Anwan bent down and got into the taxi.
The car immediately started its engine and drove away.
Wen Jin was left at the edge of the road.
Lu Nanxin stood across the road without any intention of crossing over. Wen Jin’s phone continued to vibrate. It was Lu Nanxin calling again and again.
Though they could see each other clearly, they were locked in a standoff, each insisting that Wen Jin pick up the phone.
Wen Jin lowered his head and looked at Lu Nanxin’s calls flashing on the screen. Then, he slowly answered the call. However, Wen Jin didn’t say anything. He just stood there.
On the phone, Lu Nanxin’s tone remained rather calm. “Jin, why are you with
Yu Anwan?”
But these words were an interrogation directed at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin furrowed his brows and didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he looked at Lu Nanxin.
Given Wen Jin’s current status, nobody had dared to question him like this before. Even when Wen Zhanming spoke to Wen Jin, he did so with caution.
So, had he been too lenient with Lu Nanxin lately?
He held Lu Nanxin in hIS palm, but that didn’t mean that Wen Jin had granted Lu Nanxin the right to act recklessly. Therefore, in this situation, Wen Jin’s expression gradually darkened. It was an expression of displeasure.
“Why are you with Yu Anwan? She’s someone you despise to the core. How ruthless can a woman be to abandon her child on a beach? She even went to your bed at any cost back then and broke us up!” Seeing Wen Jin’s silence, Lu Nanxin’s emotions began to gradually spiral out of control.
“Why are you entangled with her? Why? You know she’s the person I hate the most. You, too,” Lu Nanxin’s voice trembled, on the brink of tears.
This was an accusation aimed at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin remained silent from start to finish. He simply crossed the road and walked towards Lu Nanxin.
Lu Nanxin was shedding tears, but as soon as Wen Jin stood before her, her sobbing ceased.
Lu Nanxin knew very well that Wen Jin didn’t like people crying.
Yet, Lu Nanxin gazed at Wen Jin with a distressed expression, reaching out instinctively to clasp Wen Jin’s hand.
Lu Nanxin had poor circulation. Although it was still autumn in Jiang City, her palms were icy cold. As soon as her hand touched Wen Jin’s, Wen Jin furrowed his brow.
“Why didn’t you wear something warmer? Your hands are so cold. Do you want to end up in the hospital again?” Wen Jin asked softly, lowering his head to look at Lu Nanxin.
Lu Nanxin’s eyes were still misty, she shook her head, biting her lip, but refrained from speaking.
Wen Jin naturally held Lu Nanxin’s hand and calmly said, “Get in the car first. I’ll take you back.”
Wen Jin didn’t go back to fetch his car. Instead, he instructed Shen Bin to drive his car back to the Wen family and then took Lu Nanxin in her car, heading straight to the apartment.
Throughout the entire journey, Wen Jin didn’t explain anything about his situation with Yu Anwan, nor did he say another word to Lu Nanxin.
He held the steering wheel firmly with his large hand, focusing on the road ahead, and it couldn’t have been quieter. This made Lu Nanxin extremely anxious.
“You followed me?” Wen Jin raised his eyelids with just one sentence.
Lu Nanxin was left stunned by Wen Jin’s words, and upon seeing Wen Jin’s indifferent attitude, she grew even more nervous.
When the car came to a stop outside the apartment building, Lu Nanxin wrapped her arms around Wen Jin’s waist, pressing her body against Wen Jin’s.
This gesture seemed more like trying to appease Wen Jin, fearing to provoke his anger.
Wen Jin’s unpredictable behavior left Lu Nanxin utterly perplexed.
It was as though before Yu Anwan appeared, Lu Nanxin had always held Wen Jin in the palm of her hand. In the current situation, everything seemed to be in disarray.
It had come to a point where it no longer had anything to do with Lu Nanxin.
Lu Nanxin’s heart was filled with a trace of fear. Subconsciously, she tightened her grip on Wen Jin’s slender waist.
Wen Jin’s brows furrowed.
Even though he knew the person was Lu Nanxin, Wen Jin seemed to dislike anyone getting too close to him. However, Yu Anwan was an exception.
Wen Jin’s thoughts were heavy.
“Jin, do you not love me anymore?” Lu Nanxin’s voice trembled.
Her beautiful eyes were misty as she gazed at Wen Jin, determined to extract an answer.
Wen Jin looked down at Lu Nanxin with a composed expression. Then, he gently removed Lu Nanxin’s hand from his waist and calmly replied, “Don’t let your imagination run wild..”
