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

The dialog box is still showing the content from a few days ago. No new messages have arrived.

He then checked Ruan Zhining's WeChat Moments, but there were no updates.

I opened her Douyin account. There was nothing there.

Wen Chongyan frowned, his expression turning cold.

She caused such a huge scene last night, disturbing his prayers and so intensely pressuring him to marry her, and now she's just hiding away like this?

She hasn't come back for over 20 hours.

Did she hope he would worry about her and then give in on his own? Did she think this tactic would work on him?

Suddenly, WeChat beeped. Wen Chongyan's eyes lit up, and he quickly switched to check—it was a message from his mother.

"..."

Lai Chi-ying: [Ah Yan, Mom is getting ready to go back to Hong Kong tomorrow]

Wen Chongyan stared coldly at the message, then, as if struck by a sudden thought, typed out a passionate message:

"Would you like to have dinner at Tan Yuen tonight?"

Overwhelmed with gratitude at receiving her son's invitation for the first time, Li Zhiying replied, "Great! Mom would like to have dinner with you too."

Wen Chongyan: [Okay, then it'll just be the two of us.]

Li Zhiying: [Two people? Isn't that pretty girl here? You didn't just kick her out of the villa, did you? Sigh, actually I wanted to see her.]

After receiving this message, Wen Chongyan ignored his mother.

He switched to another app and opened Ruan Zhining's chat window again.

W: My mother insists on seeing you.

Ruan Zhining had just boarded the plane when he learned that the planes were queuing for takeoff. His phone rang at that moment.

She was startled to see that the WeChat message was from Wen Chongyan. Why would he contact her now?

She originally planned to cancel the WeChat account and use a new one once she arrived in Canada.

Fortunately, the next one came next.

W: [Now that things have come to this, you'd better think about how to explain this to my mother.]

Oh, so he came to scold her. He must be very angry.

She currently projects an image of a "bitter woman," which should continue to annoy him.

Ruan Zhining paused for a moment, then began to choke up into her voice as she spoke into the phone microphone.

Xiao Ruan Bu Ruan [voice message]: [Mr. Wen, I'm sorry... Please apologize to Ms. Li... I couldn't control my feelings at the time, I wanted to marry you so much...]

W: [You come to my mother in person and tell her, 7 PM, Tanyuan]

W: [My mother doesn't have much time. Send me your location, and I'll send a car to pick you up now.]

Xiao Ruan is not soft-hearted: [I can't see you right now. I'm afraid I'll lose control in front of Ms. Li... I won't be able to resist hugging and kissing you, wanting to marry you and have children... I need to be alone for a while... (The rest of the time is spent crying for 20 seconds)]

Wen Chongyan listened to the voice message several times.

...Is she that heartbroken?

Does she really want to marry him that badly? Does she feel like crying anytime, anywhere? She even cried at school.

And, having children.

She wants to sleep with him? How could a woman confess her feelings to a man like that? Was she pregnant with his child the night she climbed into his bed?

However, he hasn't recently given up cigars and alcohol, so he's not exactly the best person for her to conceive.

W: [You're such a good actress, and you're afraid of my mother? Perfect, she's been pressuring me to get married every day, I think you two might get along very well.]

W: [Send location, Ruan Zhining, how many times do I have to ask you?]

I asked several times, but it didn't work.

The plane is about to take off.

Xiao Ruan is not soft: [Mr. Wen... since I can't marry you, I won't go back to Tanyuan. I'm just a greedy girl like that. I'm sorry, goodbye...]

After saying that, Ruan Zhining turned off the phone.

The plane pushes back onto the runway, taxis, and takes off into the sky—

Ruan Zhining, with motion sickness patches on her temples, leaned against the small window, looking down at the night view of Beijing.

Her eyes held reluctance, nostalgia, and anticipation and excitement for the future.

But Wen Chongyan only saw coldness.

At this moment, in Tan Garden, Li Zhiying sat at the dining table, looking at her son whose face was extremely ugly. He was cutting the steak so forcefully; he was angry.

"Ayan, what's wrong? Did you have a fight with that girl?"

quarrel?

Ruan Zhining couldn't bear to argue with him. Her talk of not returning to Tanyuan and saying goodbye was just a ploy to play hard to get.

She's probably hiding somewhere crying. How childish.

"Ayan, don't think your mother is nagging. You're living with her now, which means you get along well. Your father and I don't care about social status. We'll both like you as long as you marry her."

Wen Chongyan paused in his action of cutting the steak.

We get along well.

Is it him and Ruan Zhining?

He looked down at the steak on the plate, imagining Ruan Zhining pouting and begging him to feed her steak.

Although he could not possibly like green tea, it seems that he does not object to Ruan Zhining living in Tanyuan.

She loves to act cute and loves to perform; her words and kisses are so sweet.

Moreover, during the three months that Ruan Zhining was with him, she was indeed punished—she stopped going out to deceive Jiang Linfeng, Cheng Che, or anyone else.

Once he lets her go, she might go back to the tea business.

In addition, my mother has been urging me to get married repeatedly, and she did it again tonight.

Therefore, his worst-case scenario, agreeing to a marriage of convenience, is the most rational and only solution at this moment.

Anyway, it wasn't a big deal for him. He just used Ruan Zhining as a shield to pressure her into marriage.

Thinking of this, Wen Chongyan's brows, which had been furrowed all day, finally relaxed completely.

Almost instantly, he picked up his phone and dialed Assistant Shao's number:

"Get the legal team to Tan Yuen immediately. Yes, now."

Let's draft a marriage agreement. He's unlikely to be swindled out of his money by a gold digger.

As for the wedding, Ruan Zhining is so vain, she'll definitely make a fuss about having a huge celebration. But he won't give in to her wishes; at most, he'll spend a billion or so on a small affair.

Once Ruan Zhining returns, they can get their marriage certificate first, to avoid her causing trouble again.

but.

When will she come back?

Wen Chongyan picked up his phone; Ruan Zhining's WeChat message was still stuck a few hours ago. She hadn't sent any new messages.

This is probably a common tactic used by "green tea" girls: to make him anxious and take the bait.

He wanted to see how many days she could resist contacting him.

The first day Ruan Zhining didn't contact him.

Wen Chongyan slept in the master bedroom, but couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. He got up and strolled around Tanyuan Garden, feeling that it was a bit old and small as a newlywed residence.

He woke up his assistant Shao in the middle of the night and asked him to send some luxury homes in Beijing, either to buy ten units and combine them together, or to buy land and rebuild.

Ruan Zhining was also browsing. However, she was browsing a night market in Bangkok.

She went sightseeing with Yin Jianhang's local friends. They also ate Tom Yum soup and green papaya salad.

The next morning, Nguyen Tri Ninh boarded a private boat and traveled by water to Laos.

Then we traveled from Laos to Singapore.

Finally, I flew from Singapore to Vancouver, Canada.

The day after Ruan Zhining didn't contact him.

Wen Chongyan received the marriage agreement drafted by the lawyer.

He skimmed through it and found no problems.

This agreement is very advantageous to Ruan Zhining, as she can obtain a considerable amount of property both during the marriage and in the divorce.

But he figured Ruan Zhining wouldn't dare divorce him; she wouldn't be willing to let go of a man as rich as him.

When she gets back and sees this agreement, she'll probably be ecstatic. She'll probably hug him and kiss him passionately, telling him she loves him countless times. It sounds cloying, and he doesn't particularly like hearing it.

Ruan Zhining successfully landed in Vancouver, where Yin Jianhang picked her up at the airport.

She also received a copy of the marriage agreement, which she was given a preliminary look at.

It was drafted by Yin Jianhang's lawyer—by her and Yin Jianhang.
