When Wen Yan returned home, Wen Yue was already asleep. She crept back to her room, changed into her gown, took her pajamas and walked to the bathroom.

Warm water sprayed down from the shower, hitting the face with a slight tingling.

She closed her eyes and exhaled softly.

People think most actively when they are relaxed.

What happened at night began to flash through my mind.

Originally, she only planned to go to the Tang family's birthday banquet to seduce Xiao He and stimulate the Tang family, but she didn't expect to give birth to Duan Chen's branch. When Duan Chen helped her out of the siege, Wen Yan deliberately paid attention to Xiao He's expression, as indifferent as ever, and she couldn't figure out what he was thinking at that time.

Just as she was immersed in her thoughts, the phone on the washstand suddenly rang.

She took a bath towel and wiped her body, picked up her phone, and when she saw the call, Sakura pursed her lips unconsciously.

"Wen Yan, what's going on with Duan Chen?" a deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wen Yan was shocked, she didn't know that he had also gone to the birthday banquet.

But she quickly calmed down: "It was an accident. ”

"Need I remind you again?" the man's voice froze.

Wen Yan pursed her lips, her voice dry: "No, I'll ...... as soon as possible"

"Don't tell me as soon as possible," the man's voice paused, "in a week, I want results." ”

A week......

Wen Yan closed her eyes tightly for a long time before she replied slowly: "I know......"

With a beep, the phone was hung up.

The bathroom was foggy and the mirror was mist. A slender hand brushed the cold mirror, and a face that was still beautiful without powder appeared, but that beautiful face revealed a sad look that should not belong to her. The delicate shape of her lips trembled slightly, stiff like a marionette, and a stiff wry smile floated.

From the beginning, she knew that everything that the man offered came at a price. However, she had no other choice. She also knew that one day, she would have to pay the price. It's just that she never thought that this price was related to him......

Unexpectedly, when Wen Yan offered to send the first draft of the design draft of Zhihui Creative Park to Xiao Zhi, Xiao He did not give her the opportunity to meet him, but asked her to hand over the design draft to his secretary.

Wen Yan did not continue to dwell on this issue.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Xiao He drove away from the company and prepared to go back to the apartment.

He has an apartment near the company, and he works overtime for a long time, living in the apartment most of the time, and only occasionally returns to the Xiao family's old house.

Turn around Jian'an Road and drive 200 meters to his apartment complex.

At ten o'clock in the evening, there are not many pedestrians on the road.

But as soon as he turned the corner, a figure suddenly appeared in the traffic light waiting area around the corner.

He slammed on the brakes, and the tires brawked hard, rubbing against the ground with a muffled hissing sound.

Some memories pressed in the depths of consciousness suddenly appeared, hazy and vague, but surging, rushing up in a rush, hitting the temples suddenly.

He could clearly feel his heart pounding, it was adrenaline, and cold sweat was oozing from his forehead.

He took a few deep breaths, his consciousness slowly retracted, and the blurred figure in front of the car became clear.

When he saw the faces of the people who came, he was almost furious.

He pulled the car door hard, walked directly towards the person in front of him with sharp steps, and suddenly struck, grabbed the man's wrist and raised it hard.

"What are you doing? You want to die, don't you?!"

Wen Yan's heart skipped a heavy beat, she had expected him to be angry, but she didn't expect him to be so angry.

For a while, she was also a little stunned, her wrist was pinched by him and was about to break, but she didn't dare to say anything, and looked at him in a daze.

"You ......" Xiao He still wanted to say something.

Suddenly—

"Be careful!" Wen Yan pushed him away violently, and in a hurry, the force was amazing.

Xiao He was caught off guard and was pushed back several steps by her.
