Chapter 39: Coercion
Xie Yansheng has been connotating Wen Lan today.
Every time Wen Lan heard it, his heart was empty.
This night, Xie Yansheng really didn't go out.
The next morning, Wen Lan went to TT without even eating because he had several orders to meet the deadline.
When she went out, she deliberately chose a low-key black SUV, most of Xie Yansheng's cars were ostentatious, and this was the only one that could catch her eye.
Zhou Qiao was busy with marriage, and he didn't come to the company today, and all the big and small things fell on Wen Lan.
Because it is the end of the month, the finance has to reconcile the orders of the month and the performance of all employees.
In the past, Zhou Qiao personally supervised the work, but this time Zhou Qiao was not there, and Wen Lan had to help review the finances.
At the end of the day, Wen Lan stared at the computer and looked dizzy, and finally reviewed all the accounts, but there was no progress in his work.
After work, she wanted to continue the work she had not done, but unexpectedly, Mrs. Wen called and "invited" her home for dinner.
She also wanted to meet Wen Jinyin, because it was inconvenient to talk about many things on the phone.
Every time Xie Yansheng went back to Wen's house with her, he was full of big bags and small bags, and he couldn't wait to stuff the trunk of the car.
She didn't buy anything this time and went back empty-handed.
Because Xie Yansheng is not there, there is no need to act.
Walking into the luxurious living room on the first floor of the Wen family, Wen Zuming pounced on him and excitedly shouted "auntie" a few times.
Wen Lan asked a few perfunctory questions about his study, and Wen Zuming patiently answered them one by one.
"Auntie, why didn't my uncle come?" Wen Zuming asked disappointedly.
Wen Lan was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he was talking about Xie Yansheng, and hurriedly said, "He's busy."
Wen Zuming let out an unhappy "oh", because the sound of Xie Yan didn't come, which meant that he couldn't receive fun toys today.
He took out his favorite snacks and thoughtfully stuffed a piece of cheese biscuit into Wen Lan's mouth.
Wen Lan thought more than once: If it weren't for Wen Jinyin and Mrs. Wen, maybe she would really like this heartless child.
"Come with me to the study." Old Lady Wen didn't have any warm voice, which gave her goosebumps.
Since Wen Lan married Xie Yansheng, Wen Jinyin's mother and son have shown their true colors.
Every time she returned to Wen's house alone, she felt like she had broken into the tiger's den in Longtan.
Wen Jinyin was making tea in the study, and when she saw Wen Lan, she greeted with a smile before saying a word, "I haven't seen my brother-in-law for a few days, and I recently got a good tea cake, bring it to him when you leave."
Wen Lan was in no mood to greet him, "You used that game to blackmail the sound of the banquet?"
"It's not a threat. It's just one last time to probe his mouth." Wen Jinyin handed her a small blue and white porcelain teacup, her eyes sharp, "But he still disappointed me. So, I didn't get used to him."
"What do you mean?" Wen Lan gasped.
"An hour ago, I asked the media to make all the source code of the game publicly available for free download on the Internet."
At this moment, Wen Jinyin's handsome facial features were distorted like a devil in Wen Lan's eyes.
She was also calm, and stretched out her hand towards Wen Jinyin, "Then the money and goods are cleared, checks?"
Wen Jinyin took a sip of tea and sighed thoughtfully.
"What check?" Mrs. Wen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"The Wen family raised you for 16 years, for you to learn piano and painting, and for six years you studied in the most expensive private middle school, and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for you to learn art and design! And your sick mother, you have to burn thousands of dollars a day abroad, don't you have a little count in your heart?"
Wen Lan took a sip of the teacup in front of him:
"Your investment in me has been recouped more than tenfold in Xie Yansheng in the past two years, right? I'm just the illegitimate daughter of the Wen family, and you throw money at me, just to raise me as a thin horse."
"What a skinny horse, so ugly! Anyway, you're my half-sister." The corners of Wen Jinyin's lips pursed a detached smile, "I wanted to give you a sum of money to let you fly away, but there have been some problems with the company's turnover recently, first
Hold off."
"You've made public the game that Xie Yan Sheng is about to come to, have you ever thought about how I'm going to face Xie Yan Sheng in the future?" Wen Lan was a little devastated, "When you negotiated terms with him, he doubted me."
"Women, be coquettish, crying and making trouble will pass." Wen Jinyin said very easily, "It's just a suspicion, doesn't he have no evidence now, if you really don't admit it, he can't kill you."
Wen Lan knew that he was cheated by Wen Jinyin again this time.
But whether the mother can carry out follow-up treatment, Wen's mother and son have the final say, and she left the Wen family after listening to Mrs. Wen's count.
This time, she has touched Xie Yansheng's bottom line, and she went back to face Xie Yansheng's accusations and anger.
If Xie Mu gets involved again...... She didn't dare to think further.
Driving the car, aimlessly shuttling through the streets of Jiangcheng, she was in a mess in her heart, and she didn't want to go back to the Xie family's old house at all.
In the huge river city, there is no place for her to stay after work.
As the night grew darker and she parked her car in the park in the middle of the street and turned on her phone.
There was a lot of uproar on the Internet about the theft of the unreleased game of "Feast", and some media and game streamers were squatting at the door of "Feast".
Jiangcheng TV Financial Channel is interviewing Xie Yansheng.
When asked about the theft of the game, Xie Yansheng always kept a proper smile, "My team and I would not make such a low-level mistake."
The game data was copied out by her personally, and now it has been downloaded by Wen Jinyin on the Internet at will, Xie Yansheng still doesn't admit it, it's really a shame!
Wen Lan put the seat flat, lay down and slept for a while, and drove back to the Xie family's old house.
She thought about it, as long as Xie Yansheng couldn't produce evidence, she wouldn't admit it.
Even if Wen Jinyin didn't give her a penny, as long as she tore her face with Xie Yansheng, she would leave Jiangcheng and go to the country to accompany her mother.
The house was empty, Xie Yan hadn't come back yet, and Xie's mother probably went outside to play mahjong, but there was no trace.
Wen Lan had something on her mind, she couldn't eat a bite of the meal cooked by the nanny, and went to bed without even taking a shower.
Xie Yansheng came back in the middle of the night, smelling of wine.
Halfway up the stairs and calling her name, she turned on the lamp and before she got out of bed, Xie Yansheng staggered and fell on the bed.
"Where have you been, why do you drink so much?" She tried to pour him a glass of water, but he pulled it back.
"Wen Lan—"
His hot breath fell between her lips and teeth.
Quickly staggered, entangled.
She knew that drunk men had brute strength, didn't struggle, and were ready to pander.
At the critical moment, he stopped all movements, held her face, and smiled bitterly,
"One of my games was exposed by Wen Jinyin. You say—am I pathetic?"
"Get a good night's sleep, and you may be relieved when you wake up." She persuaded.
"Wen Jinyin stabbed me here—" Xie Yansheng pointed to his heart, his eyes deep and misty, "Is it the knife you handed him?"
