Wen Zhi, who had always treated others like toys, felt defeated for the first time with Jiang Ran!

"You tricked me!"

Wen Zhi spoke with some irritation, her earlier ease, which had even made her want to hum a tune, was nowhere to be seen.

"How can you say that? Wasn't it you who paid her to leave?"

Jiang Ran smiled, looking at Wen Zhi with a calm expression, her face devoid of emotion.

Since things had come to this point, Wen Zhi felt there was no need to hide it any longer, so she decisively told the whole story: "Five million."

Wen Zhi raised her hand, holding up her palm. "She brought it herself, five million to leave. I arranged a private car to take her, she should be at the airport by now."

She straightened her hair, her back ramrod straight, looking completely indifferent.

The expected scene of Jiang Ran's rage and accusations did not occur. Jiang Ran remained silent for a moment before looking at the letter again.

He didn't speak again, his calmness almost like that of a machine.

For some inexplicable reason, Wen Zhi saw the shadow of her former sister in Jiang Ran.

Wen Zhi never imagined that things would spiral out of control like this.

She looked at Jiang Ran intently and asked, "How did you figure it out at a glance?"

Jiang Ran didn't look up, and replied, "What do you mean, 'could you tell at a glance'?"

"It's about me giving her money."

Wen Zhi was very curious. According to Xia Yunxi, she and Jiang Ran had never even reached the point of dating. So, when they saw such a letter, anyone's first reaction would be anger, right?

But Jiang Ran didn't. He simply asked her in a very calm tone how much money he had given her.

Could it be that Xia Yunxi is lying? Did they actually already have a deal and were working together to blackmail her?

After having this inexplicable thought, Jiang Ran's series of reactions become completely understandable.

Wen Zhi stared intently at Jiang Ran, awaiting his response.

However, Jiang Ran's words stunned Wen Zhi completely!

"It's easy to tell."

Jiang Ran raised her head, her face still expressionless. "Xia Yunxi, I know."

"Her family was short of money and wanted to buy out the first half of her life, so she had been working hard since graduation."

"She doesn't have a good relationship with her family, yet this letter says that her family introduced her to a blind date, which doesn't match the persona I know her to be. So, it's understandable that I would have such a guess, right?"

"Moreover, I know she's short of money, extremely short. The influence of her family background has made her very obsessed with money. So, apart from you asking her for money, I can't think of any other reason why she would leave."

Jiang Ran spoke calmly and logically.

Wen Zhi was surprised that Jiang Ran could still think rationally under such circumstances.

She seemed to have really underestimated her brother-in-law.

This Jiang Ran was completely different from what she had imagined; he was definitely not as innocent as he appeared before her.

Although he was five or six years younger than her, the feeling he gave Wen Zhi was completely different from that of Xia Yunxi.

In other words, Wen Zhi could see through Xia Yunxi's life at a glance, but she couldn't understand Jiang Ran's life, or what choices he would make...

For a moment, Wen Zhi didn't know how to respond to him.

The atmosphere froze at that moment.

However, at the top of the stairs, Wen Ling's cold voice suddenly rang out, calm yet tinged with suppressed anger: "You seem to know her quite well."

Subconsciously, Wen Zhi and Jiang Ran looked up.

Wen Ling stood at the top of the rooftop stairs, her maid supporting her arm, while she rested her other hand on the door frame, coldly watching the two people in the living room.

Wen Ling was still wearing Jiang Ran's coat, her swollen ankles were exposed, and under the coat, a purple knitted dress outlined her almost perfect figure.

Unexpectedly, Wen Ling suddenly came downstairs, and Wen Zhi, feeling the tense atmosphere, immediately wanted to make a quick escape to pee.

However, neither of them spoke, and in the stalemate, she could only stand there stiffly, her scalp tingling.

"It's alright, after all, we were college classmates."

Jiang Ran touched his nose. Since it had already been discovered, there was no need to continue hiding it.

"Did she kiss you?"

Wen Ling didn't change the subject, staring intently at Jiang Ran, and asked.

"Sister, she..."

"Shut up! I'm asking him!"

"..."

That's the attitude.

They were aggressive, as if they wanted to devour him, and completely unreasonable.

Jiang Ran suddenly felt tired. He picked up the letter on the table, folded it neatly in front of the two of them, put it in his pocket, and said indifferently and frivolously, "Sister Wen, this has nothing to do with you, right?"

"What do you mean it's okay!"

Wen Ling panicked immediately. Her voice rising, she hopped and struggled down the stairs, demanding, "Tell me, did she kiss you?"

"Have you ever touched her like you touched me?"

Did she hold your hand?

"It's because of her that you've been wanting a divorce. She's the one you love, isn't she?"

reason?

Wenling no longer has this item.

From the moment she worried that Jiang Ran would actually book an early morning flight to leave, Wen Ling rushed downstairs. But unexpectedly, she overheard Jiang Ran's crush at the stairwell.

This person is actually Xia Yunxi!

Xia Yunxi, whom she personally recruited and who had been lurking around her and Jiang Ran all along, took advantage of their vulnerability!

How can you be calm? !

During those days and nights when Jiang Ran rejected her, Xia Yunxi also lived in their marital home. They were so close, how much contact did they have? Was there any excessive or inappropriate contact?

She was kept in the dark from beginning to end, until now...

"Sis, calm down, things..."

"Shut up! Did I tell you to speak?"

Wen Zhi was on the verge of a breakdown!

She watched as her older sister, disregarding her injured foot, hopped downstairs and rushed over, interrogating her like a madwoman.

Even though Wen Zhi knew everything, she couldn't take it anymore. Just as she was about to explain, she heard Jiang Ran's cold voice: "So what if it all happened? What's it to you? Miss Wen, have you forgotten that you said you wouldn't interfere in each other's personal lives after marriage? What's the point of asking these questions now?!"

"Of course it makes sense! You're mine, have I allowed anyone else to touch you?"

"It's just a contract marriage. When did I become yours? Are you crazy?"

"I'm sick! You can forget about divorcing me!"

"Even without Xia Yunxi, I was determined to get a divorce!"

Jiang Ran couldn't take it anymore. Faced with the aggressive Wen Ling in front of him, he no longer had any desire to communicate with her.

He looked at Wen Zhi and softened his tone: "Sister Zhizhi, please book a car for me. I need to go to the airport now."

"You're not allowed to go!"

Seeing how polite he was to his sister, Wen Ling's long-suppressed emotions could no longer be contained. Her face hardened, and she ordered Wen Zhi, "Call a few bodyguards over and lock him in the bedroom!"
