Listening to Wen Xuyan's words, I fell into deep thought.

What he said was right. The reason why I found his words harsh was because every word he said poked at my pain and the vulnerability that I didn't want to face.

These days, I have been vaguely escaping from my own stupidity, attributing all the problems to Jiang Mingchu’s hateful and vicious nature.

But step by step, I only have Jiang Mingchu to blame. Don’t I have any responsibility?

One of human nature is that they do not easily accept criticism from others. They always think that they are always right and like to find various excuses to defend themselves. Often what other people's sharpness exposes is not the truth, but one's own pitiful and fragile self-esteem.

It has been seven years since Jiang Mingchu and I fell in love.

I was able to be deceived by a bad man for seven years without realizing it. I'm not stupid, what am I?

And the most stupid thing is that when my father reminded me that I didn’t know Jiang Mingchu, I subconsciously thought that my father thought that Jiang Mingchu’s background was too poor to be worthy of our family.

I actually forgot, what a gentle man my father is! How could he care about being a good match!

I suddenly felt ashamed - Wen Xuyan helped me several times, even if he was impatient in his words, he was really doing it for my own good.

Just now, I actually thought about defeating Wen Xuyan verbally, showing off my quick words.

I lowered my head and apologized sincerely, "Senior Wen, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you just now..."

Wen Xuyan looked at me with surprise and said calmly, "Ruan Zhen, you don't need to apologize. In fact, what you said is right."

"..."

"Maybe this is the reason why I failed." Wen Xuyan smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, "I should reflect on myself."

"Failed?" I wondered, what could Wen Xuyan fail about?

"Emotionally, I was indeed a failure." Wen Xuyan pursed his thin lips, seeming helpless and sad.

But he looked heavy and airtight. Even though I caught the subtle changes in his expression, it was difficult to dig deeper from his fleeting expression. A sentence suddenly popped up in my mind to describe it: Joy and anger cannot be expressed in color.

The sixth sense tells me that Wen Xuyan must have a secretive relationship in his heart, and for him, this relationship is extremely painful. He has been unable to forget it for many years. He feels sad when he thinks about it, but there is nothing he can do to restore it. kind.

That being said, I'm quite curious.

What does the person who has been hidden in Wen Xuyan's heart for several years look like?

She must be a very smart girl, right? After all, smart people like smart people.

As we talked, I forgot that Wen Xuyan was not very familiar with driving, and I was freed from the sadness and anger.

By the time I reacted, Wen Xuyan had already driven the car to the riverside, parked it, and asked me if I wanted to get out of the car and take a walk.

I nodded and took a walk.

Qingyi River is a very famous scenic spot in Jiangzhou City. It is a section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in the past. It has the largest freight terminal and handling transfer station in Jiangzhou.

The gentle breeze blows the mood.

There are still many people fishing on the embankments along the river.

Wen Xuyan and I walked side by side along the river embankment.

Wen Xuyan asked me why I suddenly lost control of my mood?

I glanced sideways at him, debating whether or not to tell him.

The reason why I need to think is because I am indeed not familiar with Wen Xuyan. Although he is my father's favorite disciple, in ancient times, I would have called him brother, but he is also Jiang Mingchu's mortal enemy. I don't even know if we are friends?

But on the other hand, I felt like I could talk to him. Somehow, I had put down my guard against Wen Xuyan and wanted to listen to his advice. Or, to a certain extent, I have gained trust and recognition in Wen Xuyan.

Seeing my hesitation, Wen Xuyan added, "I promised Xu Weitang that I would enlighten your emotions. As entrusted by others..."

"You've already said it twice that you are loyal to others when entrusted by others." I said in vain.

Wen Xuyan nodded and said seriously, "That's right, so you don't have to worry. If you want to talk, I can be a listener."

"I can tell you." I sighed and pretended to be relaxed, "Actually, it's not a big deal."

Wen Xuyan looked at me quietly, waiting for me to speak.

So I calmly told Wen Xuyan that Jiang Mingchu had drugged my child to death and that he had purchased a huge insurance policy early on.

I thought I was calm enough, but as I was talking, especially when the child died tragically, I couldn't help crying, but I didn't want to appear fragile, so I tried my best to open my eyes wide and hold back the tears, and hold back the tears in my nose. With a sour smile, he asked Wen Xuyan with tears in his eyes, "Senior Wen, I know I'm stupid for liking a bastard for so many years. But...why did Jiang Mingchu do this to me?"

My voice was hoarse and painful. In order to hold back the tears, I frowned slightly, "Why me? He and I have never met before. He wanted to find someone to use as a springboard. Why did he choose me all of a sudden? Senior, do you know? , sometimes I can’t help but want to ask him, when did he start planning to fall in love at first sight on the day of the wedding?”

Wen Xuyan looked at me, his cold face expressionless and stern, solemn and indifferent.

"How did he know that Ruan Qinghui had a daughter named Ruan Zhen who was about to enter the School of Foreign Languages ​​of Jiangzhou University? And he happened to pick up the wrong girl on the orientation day? Senior, do you think all this is really God's will?" I couldn't help but cry. Laughing, "If it is really God's will, I think God is really unfair to me."

Wen Xuyan frowned and comforted me softly, "Ruan Zhen, this is not your fault, and there is no need to use other people's mistakes to punish yourself."

"Actually, this is not the most important thing right now. The truth and answers, when I find the evidence and send him to prison, I think Jiang Mingchu will definitely give me an answer by then."

As soon as I finished speaking, tears rolled down my face. I wiped them away immediately. In my hand was Wen Xuyan's plaid handkerchief. Without thinking about it, I took it and wiped my face, and then said, "Didn't you ask me why?" Can't you see through Jiang Mingchu's true face? On the one hand, I am stupid, but on the other hand, I want to say that Jiang Mingchu's methods are really amazing. Jiang Mingchu has been very good to me over the years, obedient, meticulous, gentle and patient, really , so good that I feel so lucky to have such a man to accompany me throughout my life after losing the care of my parents? That’s why I can’t understand why he can be so shameless, vicious and insidious? For more than seven years, I have faced How did he manage to perform consistently every minute of my life? What gave him so much patience to plan for seven years?"

"The other thing is, in the past seven years, even when he was acting, has Jiang Mingchu never been sincere to me? Is there a moment when he was moved and guilty? Am I not good enough to him? Or is it me, Ruan Zhen? Don’t you deserve it?”

Wen Xuyan looked at me with dark eyes and said in an extremely sure tone, "Ruan Zhen, there is no need to belittle yourself."

I chuckled, laughing at myself and feeling helpless.

Wen Xuyan's voice was a little ethereal, "How could you not be worthy?"
