After hitting the Rolls-Royce, the top-tier green tea started fishing.

"Yes, I'll marry you~" Ruan Zhining rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at him.

"However, Mr. Richest Man, you'll have to give me half of your enormous fortune~ and no prenuptial agreement, okay~"

"Wow, so much money! So, will you marry me?"

Wen Chongyan stared intently at her. "Are you sure?"

?

After being asked this question, Ruan Zhining dared not be sarcastic anymore.

...I get the feeling he has a bigger conspiracy.

They wouldn't want to leave her with a massive debt of 50 billion, would they?

She chickened out like a coward. Biting her lip, she said, "Just kidding, I can't afford to marry you... I'd rather marry Jiang Linfeng."

Wen Chongyan didn't speak. His profile was half-shadowed, cold.

Ruan Zhining knew, of course, that he was just joking. Wen Chongyan disliked her so much, how could he possibly marry her?

But she's already married, hehe. Once she marries into the Jiang family...

As Ruan Zhining indulged in her fantasies, she became lost in her dreams of marrying into a wealthy family.

Once she was completely asleep, the man, who had remained cold throughout, slowly turned his head.

A strong gaze fell on her face.

I'm laughing even in my dreams.

She was going to marry Jiang Linfeng.

Is that all that makes her so happy?

"I'm willing."

Ruan Zhining's shy reply seemed to echo in my ears.

Are the entire Jiang family fools? Not a single one of them could see that Ruan Zhining was faking it all?

I was completely fooled by a scheming woman.

Jiang's mother lived for over 50 years in vain.

Jiang Linfeng might as well be dead. He should die tomorrow.

No—die tonight, right now.

"Linfeng..." Ruan Zhining murmured in her sleep, "Linfeng... I like you so much... I want you so much." (The family's money)

*Snap.* Wen Chongyan coldly closed the magazine in his hand.

Lawless.

That's utterly debauched!

Wen Chongyan narrowed his eyes coldly, then suddenly seemed to realize something, his gaze falling on Wen Xiyu on the hospital bed directly in front of him...

Previously, he had never known what use this nephew was.

Now, in this very second, he finally understood the last bit of use his nephew had.

……

Ruan Zhining slept soundly.

I dreamt that after she married into a wealthy family, she had her own business, made a fortune, and slept on a bed of gold bars. Even the bowls she ate from were gold.

She was in a good mood, so she was very patient with Wen Xiyu in the morning.

"Zhining, I saw Linfeng's post on WeChat Moments, no—that beast Jiang Linfeng."

"He said he has a fiancée? You're going to marry him?!"

Wen Xiyu's voice trembled with disbelief. He was accusing her.

"Yes, I did promise Lin Feng last night..."

Ruan Zhining slowly raised her eyes, her soft voice seemingly carrying its own sad background music.

"Xiyu, do you know... I've never had a father or mother since I was little."

"When I was with you, your uncle was so mean to me (emphasis added), and your parents weren't around. My heart was always cold... I wanted that feeling of home, and your Wen family (emphasis added again) couldn't give me that..."

"Linfeng's mother is very kind to me. Every time she talks to me and touches my face, it feels like I'm seeing my own mother..."

"Xiyu, do you know how much of a luxury it is for me to have a mother?"

Wen Xiyu was taken aback.

Seeing a tear welling up in Ruan Zhining's eye.

So beautiful.

No man can resist her.

"If you really want to ruin things between me and Linfeng, then go ahead. I just don't have a mother. I... I'm used to it. It's okay. I don't think I'll die."

Ruan Zhining looked away in slow motion.

Immediately afterwards, a tear fell and landed on the back of Wen Xiyu's hand.

"Zhining, I..."

Wen Xiyu's voice softened completely.

Ruan Zhining knew she had succeeded.

She didn't linger; she grabbed her bag, stood up, covered her mouth, and ran away—all in one smooth motion. A single, continuous take.

She had just run out of the ward when she bumped into Wen Chongyan, who had returned.

"Where are you going?" His tall figure blocked her way.

"Oh, something's up."

"Want to meet up with Lin Feng?"

Ruan Zhining didn't hide anything, smiling broadly, "Yes."

"Are you sure you can leave like this?" Wen Chongyan looked down at her. "If you don't stay with Xiyu, I'm not sure what he'll do at the Jiang family."

"Xi Yu wouldn't do that." Ruan Zhining winked at him. "Mr. Wen, Xi Yu is a good man. He is really, really good."

The subtext is: Unlike you—you're a big bad guy!

After finishing her sentence, Ruan Zhining turned and left.

Wen Chongyan reached out to pull her, but only managed to grab half of her sleeve.

He frowned, but quickly relaxed, his eyes revealing a calm determination to succeed.

Where can she go?

The entire capital city was his territory.

As for Wen Xiyu...

Wen Chongyan frowned and walked towards the ward. As soon as the door opened, a water glass slammed heavily onto him.

The cold water splashed all over Wen Chongyan's upper body, soaking him completely and even splashing water droplets all over his face.

Wen Xiyu's roar echoed throughout the ward.

"Wen Chongyan, you are the one who caused me to lose Zhi Ning. You are the culprit—"

"I'm fucking ready to fight you to the death today!"

……

After half an hour.

Wen Xiyu's hands were bound with a tie, and his feet were tied with a belt.

With a bruised and swollen face and blood streaming from his nose, he knelt at the entrance to the bathroom in the ward.

Wen Chongyan stood by the window, a cigar between his long, slender fingers.

Apart from not wearing a tie and belt, he still looked handsome, arrogant, and impeccably dressed.

"Wen Xiyu, do you mean you're not going to go see Jiang Linfeng?"

"I'm not looking anymore... Zhi Ning is so pitiful, how can I possibly ruin her happiness..."

Wen Xiyu's mouth was full of blood, but his face was full of heartache.

"Uncle, it's really not Zhi Ning's fault. There's a reason she's with Jiang Linfeng... It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

"Uncle, how about our Wen family gives Zhi Ning some compensation? I feel we've wronged her too much..."

"Should I not be Jiang Linfeng's best man? I hope... I can personally send Zhi Ning to her happy ending..."

Wen Chongyan's hand, which was holding a cigar, suddenly paused.

No wonder Ruan Zhining smiled so beautifully and arrogantly at him at the door just now.

She has such excellent tea-making skills!

With just a few words, she managed to fool and recruit that idiot Wen Xiyu back into her fold.

Men are useless.

What a money-loser!

"She's on a date with Jiang Linfeng now." Wen Chongyan looked down at his nephew. "Are you sure you're not going to go see her?"

"..."

"When they're on a date, maybe they'll kiss, maybe they'll do something more intimate? Wen Xiyu, you don't care about any of that?"

"..."

"She and Jiang Linfeng have only known each other for a short time. If they get married so hastily, they may be very unhappy after marriage. Don't come to me asking me to find someone to help her with the divorce case."

Wen Xiyu closed his eyes in anguish and wept.

"Uncle, please stop... If... if Zhi Ning is unhappy after marriage, I... I can be her mistress and let her vent her frustrations..."

"..."

Wen Chongyan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he suddenly felt extremely irritated.

He suddenly turned around and kicked his nephew.

"You've cried so much, you've cried away all the pride of the Wen family men."

"..."

Wen Xiyu cried out in pain. When Wen Chongyan saw his face, he thought of how Ruan Zhining had gone to great lengths to seduce him. Still not satisfied, he kicked him twice more.

Wen Xiyu fell to the ground.

A good-for-nothing.

Wen Chongyan patted his trouser leg, expressionless. "No wonder Ruan Zhining gave up trying to seduce you. Is that all you've got?"

Wen Xiyu was still crying.

"Uncle, really, our Wen family has committed heinous crimes against Zhi Ning... I have no right to bother her anymore..."

"Alright." Wen Chongyan flicked his cigar, seemingly casually, and said, "In that case, her life and safety are no longer important."

Wen Xiyu suddenly opened his eyes, "Zhi Ning's life is in danger? W-what is in danger?"
