Tan Qing shook his head and took out his phone: "Let Deputy Director Shao go instead of ."
Nuannuan fainted...
This news was like a taut string, tying his heart up and hoisting it high, a feeling he couldn’t quite describe as panic set in with nowhere to find footing.
Actually, he didn’t need to go on this business trip; Deputy Director Shao was originally scheduled to go. He had requested to switch and go himself, just to avoid Wen Nuan. He feared that upon seeing her, he would be unable to resist seeking her out again.
"Does Leng Yan know?" Uncle Wang was very skilled and familiar with City N, taking only roads that were less crowded and closer, which eased so of his worries. Still, his mind was unsettled; what exactly had happened?
According to Tong Xi, Wen Nuan was taken to the hospital by a wedding dress shop owner. Why was she in front of the shop so early, and where was Leng Yan?
Why wasn’t he by her side when she fainted? So many questions left him feeling uneasy and anxious.
Yesterday, when she was dragged away by Leng Yan, he had been worried all along. He had been given an injection by the family doctor and fell asleep, but waking up with a head full of her silhouette. Late at night, unable to sleep, he found a charger compatible with her phone and charged it for her. He couldn’t help but read through her ssages, most of which were from Leng Yan, warm and sweet in tone, and he was finally able to put his mind at ease.
Leng Yan loved her, and he wouldn’t disturb her anymore. To ensure he wouldn’t hold on to any hope, he even called the HR departnt to halt Wen Nuan’s transfer to Italy.
"Don’t ntion him to !"
Tong Xi spoke harshly, revealing what she knew with anger written all over her face, finally cursing vehently: "I swear I won’t let them have a good ti!"
Tan Qing was shaken to his core, his face full of disbelief, but he also knew that Ji Wei had been clinging to Leng Yan, so he had no choice but to accept the truth.
Whenever he thought of Wen Nuan running away crying, his heart ached in every fiber of his being.
Just last night, he was thinking of the sweetness between Wen Nuan and Leng Yan, imagining that without his entanglent, Wen Nuan’s life wouldn’t carry the heavy burden, and what remained would just be sweetness with Leng Yan.
How could he have known that just one night would change everything?
Leng Yan had cheated, and Wen Nuan’s sweet life had disappeared just as it was beginning...

Why hasn’t Xixi co?
Wen Nuan’s body was getting colder, and she curled up slightly, trying hard to keep her eyes wide open, watching the door. She felt very sleepy but was afraid that Tong Xi wouldn’t find her if she ca.
"Miss, what’s wrong? Are you here to see a doctor? Do you have a registration?"
A nurse on duty saw her shivering on the rest chair and ca over to ask.
Wen Nuan shook her head: "I’m waiting for soone."
She wasn’t there for a consultation; she needed to wait for Tong Xi here and then return to work at MT.
Pengfei said the flight was at noon today, and it would land around three in the afternoon; he said he would go directly to MT to find her. She couldn’t let Pengfei co for nothing, or things would get complicated.
Also, since she was supposed to go to Italy, Lin Xue’s work was very busy. She didn’t want to delay soone else’s plans because of herself. Besides, she had heartbreak disease; which departnt should she visit?
Thinking about it, it felt so ironic. She had secretly loved him for three years, been in love for rely a month, and now she was heartbroken again. What was even more ironic was that she had witnessed such a disgraceful scene with her own eyes.
She was cold now, not because she was sick; it had to be because her heart was too cold, that’s why it felt like this.
Watching the door with all her strength, she finally saw a figure in full denim, and Wen Nuan finally let out a sigh of relief.
Tong Xi had arrived...
"Xixi." She gritted her teeth, got up from the chair, and went to find Tong Xi. Before she could lift her foot, an unknown force struck her head again, and her vision turned dark, and Wen Nuan collapsed.
"Nuannuan!"
"Nuannuan!"
As her consciousness faded, she seed to hear two voices, both full of anxiety and worry.
The woman was Tong Xi, and the man was...
Was it Leng Yan?
But why didn’t it feel like him?
She tried to open her eyes but couldn’t manage it. Her body tilted on the chair, only to be caught by a pair of strong arms in the next second.
Leng Yan stood defeated on the street, unable to find any trace of Wen Nuan. He had just reached the bridal shop when he found it closed, and the car had hurriedly driven away.
There were more and more people on the street, and many were even pointing at him. Leng Yan didn’t care at first, solely focused on finding Wen Nuan. It was only when soone pointed out that there was sothing on his clothes that he noticed the multiple lipstick marks irregularly scattered across his shirt, each like a mocking smile calling him a fool.
With a cold face, he walked into a newly opened n’s clothing store, casually picked out an outfit in his size without even trying it on, paid for it directly. With one swift motion, he tore at it, the buttons scattering on the floor, and tossed the lipstick-stained shirt into the store’s trash can, then wore the new cloth and left.
Such a disgusting shirt, he never wanted to see it again.
Could it be that she hadn’t gone back to Tong Xi’s place? His chaotic thoughts tried to piece together a plan, and Leng Yan hailed a taxi, heading to Tong Xi’s neighborhood.
The Range Rover was still ostentatiously parked there, Ji Wei’s shadow gone from inside. He shot it a hateful glance and rushed upstairs, ringing the doorbell several tis but there was no answer. After knocking for a mont, shouting Wen Nuan’s na, the neighbor across the hall, unable to bear the noise, ca out.
"There’s no one here. The girl who lives here took sothing and ran out, not sure where she went. Looked like sothing urgent ca up."
The neighbor looked at Leng Yan curiously and told him.
Leng Yan’s hand stopped pounding the door, his knuckles swollen, yet there was no pain.
All the hurt was concentrated in the center of his heart. Everything else seed to have already gone numb.
Without pausing to thank the neighbor, he pulled out his phone and dialed Tong Xi’s number. He knew he would be scolded harshly, but what choice did he have?
If he could find Wen Nuan, he was willing to take it all. Now his biggest fear was that sothing might happen to Wen Nuan,
He hadn’t even dialed the whole number when a call ca in. An unfamiliar number, yet it made him feel ecstatic.
It must be hers; she must have borrowed soone else’s phone to call.
"Nuannuan!"
He murmured, filled with deep emotions and regret: "Nuannuan, speak up, I’m sorry, I’m a bastard. But please, let explain, okay?"
Afraid Wen Nuan would hang up, he spoke rapidly, but there was still no response on the other side.
"Nuannuan."
His stomach ached terribly, he held it, calling softly, his heart enveloped in fear and unease.
Ji Wei took a deep breath, anger spilling from her eyes and brows.
She used Xiao Liu’s phone to call, fearing that if she used her own, it would be rejected.
"Nuannuan, say sothing." Leng Yan’s voice grew increasingly uneasy, "Where are you now, I’ll co and get you. Nuannuan, I know you’re very angry with right now, but you must know, I love you, I only love you."
Ji Wei’s heart sank directly, she bit her red lip, yet her voice was exceptionally low and soft: "Yan, it’s ."
