Wife, please behave yourself.

Chapter 139 We Must Compete Fairly

Upon hearing Wen Yunwei's words, Liu Changcun did not rush to ask any questions.

Instead, he turned to look at Wen Yunwei, who was standing parallel to him, and saw that the other person had a calm expression on his face.

He knew a little about his senior's past, but he wasn't very clear about the specifics.

I only learned about Wen Yunwei's current situation from her son.

After her husband's death, she raised Shen Ruzhi alone.

Hearing the other party say this, he couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"They're going to take your daughter back?"

"Ah."

Why take it back?

"They're probably planning to have Zhizhi get married in a couple of years..."

In this day and age, all kinds of information channels are blocked. Whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as they stop going to school, their families will arrange for them to get married and start a career within a few years.

The situation Wen Yunwei described is not uncommon.

They arranged marriages for their children early on. Because Shen Ruzhi was a girl, they may have already chosen a husband's family for her, and in some extreme cases, they may have even received money from her.

Wen Yunwei continued speaking, as if she were narrating a trivial matter.

"So I ran away with Zhizhi and transferred her to a school in the city... Because they kept looking for me, Zhizhi and I moved several times."

"Didn't you call the police?"

"Can this kind of thing be solved by calling the police?"

Wen Yunwei asked a question in return, showing her keen insight.

“Even if we can resolve the issue by calling the police once or twice, as long as we get involved with them, my daughter and I will be constantly harassed… Rather than calling the police and letting them know our current address, it’s better to continue hiding.”

"This is not the way to go."

Liu Changcun began to speak, then added after a moment's thought.

"If you encounter a similar situation again in the future, you can give me a call, and I can help you sort it out."

"Really?"

Wen Yunwei was taken aback at first, but after regaining her senses, she showed an extremely surprised expression.

She hadn't expected Liu Changcun to say such a thing, and she certainly hadn't expected that what she considered a very difficult situation would seem like such a small matter to him.

Wen Yunwei blinked frequently, seemingly unaware of what was happening.

After several seconds, he finally spoke, asking in confusion.

"How do you plan to handle this kind of situation?"

"It's not as complicated as you think."

The present era is far less safe than the future.

Although Wen Yunwei did not describe it in detail, these few words were enough for Liu Changcun to get a general idea of ​​the situation.

Isn't it just that her former in-laws wanted to bring their granddaughter, Shen Ruzhi, home so they could collect a bride price when she reached a certain age?

“In your situation, giving them money will only embolden them to ask for more and more.”

"That……"

"Only when they are afraid will they truly learn their lesson."

Sometimes, the solution doesn't have to be complicated. Just find some local idlers, pay them a certain fee, and you can solve the problem once and for all.

Liu Changcun didn't think it was a difficult thing to do.

The two arrived at the car, and Liu Changcun walked towards the driver's seat while talking.

"In today's society, if you want to live a stable life, sometimes you have to be ruthless."

Liu Changcun stopped in front of the driver's seat and looked at Wen Yunwei in the passenger seat.

"Whatever the method, as long as it can solve the problem, it is the best approach."

"..."

"Get in the car first, and call me anytime if you have any problems."

Liu Changcun's words reached Wen Yunwei's ears.

Her eyes shone even brighter after the man finished speaking his last words.

It seems that no matter what happens, as long as Liu Chang is there, she will not feel worried at all.

Watching Liu Changcun get into the car, Wen Yunwei opened the passenger door with a smile.

I could see the figure already sitting in the passenger seat.

The smile on her face froze at that moment.

"..."

"..."

"Senior, please sit in the back row."

Wen Yunwei and An Zhaoran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at each other in bewilderment.

Seeing Liu Changcun, who was wearing a seatbelt and saying those words, she seemed to freeze in place for a moment, without taking any action.

Looking at An Zhaoran staring at him, he then turned his gaze to Liu Changcun in the driver's seat.

His bright eyes dimmed.

The hand gripping the passenger door handle tightened even more.

Until the passenger door is closed again.

He slowly sat down in the back seat and closed the back door.

Wen Yunwei's gaze was fixed on the two figures on her left and right in the front row. Her good mood, which had been good all the way, vanished without a trace when she saw An Zhao in the car.

Wen Yunwei didn't quite understand why An Zhaoran was also there, since it was supposed to be a private date between her and Liu Changcun.

She was sitting in the back row and placed her hands on her legs.

He sat there without saying a word.

The location of the movie theater is not far; it only takes about 20 minutes to drive there.

After parking the car, the three of them got out together.

The silence that had lasted the whole way was broken when Liu Changcun went to buy tickets for An Zhaoran.

Standing beside the parked car, An Zhaoran watched Liu Changcun's departing figure.

Only after hearing the noise behind him did he turn around to look behind him again.

Wen Yunwei came to stand in front of An Zhaoran.

The former seniors and juniors stared at each other, sizing each other up.

After getting out of the car, An Zhaoran was finally able to get a good look at the other person. Looking at Wen Yunwei's makeup today, her gaze didn't linger for long before moving down to look at the protruding part.

His previously calm gaze suddenly became turbulent, as if he had taken a defiant breath.

Try your best to straighten your back and strike a pose.

An Zhaoran's little trick did not escape Wen Yunwei's notice.

It didn't stay on her attention for long.

Wen Yunwei had been watching her ever since she got out of the car, and only spoke her first words after Liu Changcun left.

"Are you taking today too...?"

"If he rests, I'll rest too."

Responding, An Zhaoran added as if asserting her dominance.

"We both work at a TV station now." "..."

Wen Yunwei seemed not to have anticipated this situation.

After a brief moment of surprise, his voice dropped considerably.

"They all work at TV stations...what does that mean?"

"do not you know?"

An Zhaoran was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening and was quite pleased.

I thought Liu Changcun and Wen Yunwei were in frequent contact, but now it seems she is not as threatening as I imagined.

Wen Yunwei didn't even know that Liu Changcun had joined the TV station.

An Zhaoran breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing this.

She immediately relaxed a lot after being tense, and continued speaking.

"We are currently in charge of planning a new program, and he went to the TV station for me."

"..."

These words, coming from An Zhaoran, carried a hint of smugness.

This made Wen Yunwei even more disappointed upon hearing this.

He lowered his head and pondered for a long time.

Then he looked at the other person again.

So...you two are together?

"No, not that..."

An Zhaoran's smugness didn't last long. As Wen Yunwei asked this question, her confidence, which had been so strong, suddenly wavered.

Upon hearing this answer, Wen Yunwei, who had been on tenterhooks, breathed a sigh of relief.

His previously forlorn eyes gradually returned to normal.

So... you two are just colleagues right now?

"Um……"

"Zhaoran, is it okay for me to call you that?"

"..."

Seeing that An Zhaoran did not object, Wen Yunwei waited a moment before continuing.

"I have feelings for my junior."

Wen Yunwei's bold statement clearly startled An Zhaoran.

We were just saying a few nice things when suddenly we heard such a blunt declaration from the other person.

Before An Zhaoran could react, Wen Yunwei continued speaking.

“I know you feel the same way about him.”

"..."

"Let's compete fairly."

Wen Yunwei is not a decisive person.

She has never completely broken ties with anyone.

Even during the time she worked at the same company as Lin Wanran, she always maintained a peaceful and amicable relationship with her.

However, she was unusually brave when facing An Zhaoran.

Wen Yunwei actually understood perfectly well.

An Zhaoran is younger, prettier, and has a better background than me.

She has been married once and has a fourteen-year-old daughter.

From any perspective, she felt that An Zhaoran had a greater advantage than herself.

However... she is not someone who will easily admit defeat.

Liu Changcun is excellent and reliable.

Wen Yunwei had noticed all of the other person's good qualities, which was why she was particularly looking forward to today's date.

What she didn't expect was that her date with Liu Changcun would suddenly be interrupted by another person.

Wen Yunwei was unsure what Liu Changcun was thinking.

However, as a woman herself, she naturally sensed An Zhaoran's true intentions.

It was obvious from the moment she joined the film crew as a fashion consultant.

At this moment, the two people in front of them are standing face to face.

An Zhaoran calmed the chaotic thoughts in her mind and stared intently at Wen Yunwei in front of her.

Looking at the senior's serious expression.

"Okay, I agree."

Speaking calmly, An Zhaoran showed no intention of backing down.

From the moment she confessed to her parents, she already knew how she felt.

She felt exceptionally comfortable being with Liu Changcun now.

She couldn't stand the idea of ​​Liu Changcun having any women other than herself around him.

Even a senior from the same school is not acceptable.

"From childhood to adulthood, I have never lost to anyone except Liu Changcun."

With a serious expression, An Zhaoran looked at the senior in front of her.

"No matter what it is, I will always be the winner."

"Yeah……"

Wen Yunwei neither refuted nor agreed with An Zhaoran's statement.

He simply smiled and quietly responded.

The two stared at each other, their gazes colliding as if sparks were flying.

This behavior continued until Liu Changcun returned.

Holding the newly bought movie ticket, he was still feeling fortunate, unaware of what had happened while he was away.

"Luckily, not many people are watching this movie, there are still plenty of seats available."

"..."

The man had barely finished speaking when Liu Changcun, who had come to stand beside the two, hadn't even uttered a second word.

The two, who had been staring at each other, immediately took action.

An Zhaoran had just raised her hand when Wen Yunwei on the other side moved even faster than she had expected.

Before she could react, Wen Yunwei had already linked arms with Liu Changcun.

This sudden action made An Zhaoran's eyes widen.

Liu Changcun, whose arm was being held, was also surprised.

She looked at the senior who was holding her arm with surprise, and subconsciously glanced at An Zhaoran standing next to her.

Before he could speak, An Zhaoran, not to be outdone, moved closer.

She grabbed Liu Changcun's other arm.
