"Miao Miao, I miss you."
"Don't start," Fang Miao Miao rolled her eyes unceremoniously. "I'm just considering forgiving you."
"Then I'll work hard to make you forgive me completely?"
"We'll see."
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door.
"Go open it," Fang Miao Miao ordered without politeness, knowing Wen Zhi Yan could stand, walk, and run now.
Wen Zhi Yan stroked Fang Miao Miao's head and got up to go to the door.
Fang Miao Miao clicked her tongue a few times. Those standard long legs, and that, cough cough, figure. She had to admit, every part of him hit her aesthetic perfectly.
He opened the door.
He looked down.
Their eyes met.
Wen Zhi Yan raised an eyebrow.
"Did you make Mom happy?"
"What do you think?"
Wen Yan An thought for a moment: "I think you didn't."
"Then I'll continue trying. You go back to your room and wait?"
Wen Yan An shook his head seriously: "Dad, I think you should leave the matter of pleasing people to me."
"Underestimating me?"
Wen Yan An looked at him for a moment, then strode past Wen Zhi Yan and ran towards Fang Miao Miao: "Mom."
Fang Miao Miao raised an eyebrow.
Wen Yan An stopped a step away from the bed, his eyes filled with undisguised nervousness: "Mom."
Fang Miao Miao knew she had scared him and prepared to get out of bed.
"Mom, don't get down?" Wen Yan An called out nervously.
"Hmm?" Seeing his increased nervousness, Fang Miao Miao stopped what she was doing and beckoned him closer.
"Mom," Wen Yan An said cautiously by the bedside, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made you angry."
Fang Miao Miao sighed: "An An, you don't need to apologize. This is my fault. I shouldn't have been sulky and ignored you without understanding the situation."
"I shouldn't have ignored you when An An called me Mom. I made An An angry. I apologize to An An. Mom promises that from now on, I will never speak carelessly and hurt An An's feelings without understanding the situation, okay?"
Wen Yan An shook his head: "No, this is Dad and my fault. We didn't tell Mom the truth, which gave Mom a chance to overthink."
"An An."
"Mom."
Wen Zhi Yan watched them embrace and cry, then walked over and pulled them both into his arms.
"Mom, Grandma changed my school," Wen Yan An complained aggrievedly.
"Changed your school? When did that happen?"
"Miao Miao, this is my fault."
Wen Zhi Yan admitted that he hadn't expected his mother to pull such a stunt.
"What do you mean?"
Wen Zhi Yan then explained: "Mother merged the two schools."
Fang Miao Miao: "......"
Is this the world of the rich? Merging two schools directly. Impressive.
"Does An An like your current class?"
Wen Yan An pondered for a moment: "It's no different from before."
"Then it's fine. If it's no different, study hard. Don't bully other children, and don't let other children bully you, understand?"
"Kindergarten kids bully people?"
Fang Miao Miao nodded and shook her head: "You never know."
In her previous life, she had seen news reports on her phone about a class of kindergarteners ganging up to bully one child. After reporters investigated, they learned that the ringleader's family often had fights, and he found it amusing, so he started bullying others in kindergarten.
Because it was the first time she had seen such news, it left a deep impression.
"Mom, An An is doing well at school."
Fang Miao Miao then nodded: "And where is your school located?"
Wen Zhi Yan stated a location.
After the three of them sat in silence for a while, Fang Miao Miao's phone vibrated.
Sister Nian?
Fang Miao Miao raised an eyebrow and answered the call.
"Sister Nian, what's wrong?"
"Miao Miao, where are you now?"
"I'm at home. Didn't Xiao Zhi'er tell you?"
Zeng Nian pressed: "Did you go to the October Hotel?"
Fang Miao Miao glanced at Wen Zhi Yan, then sat up straighter: "Yes, I went. What's wrong?"
"You're trending again," Zeng Nian said, rubbing her forehead.
"Are paparazzi bored?"
Are paparazzi dogs, to be able to stalk her like this?
"I took a look. It's probably not paparazzi."
Fang Miao Miao put on her earphones and opened the trending topics: "Sister Nian, wait a moment."
Very good.
First trending topic.
#Fang Miao Miao Intervenes in Someone Else's Relationship#
Second trending topic.
#How Handsome is Wen Zhi Yan, the Former Head of the Wen Corporation#
Third trending topic.
#Fang Miao Miao's Involvement and Cheating#
These tags were too tempting not to click on, given the efforts behind them.
Wen Zhi Yan glanced at his phone, signaled Fang Miao Miao, and got up to leave.
Wen Yan An watched Wen Zhi Yan's retreating back, then obediently snuggled up to Fang Miao Miao.
Fang Miao Miao stroked Wen Yan An's head, piecing together the events in her mind.
It was very simple, very dramatic, and the cause was her good mother-in-law, Ran Lian.
What Ran Lian had said at the birthday banquet and her praise for Xie Wan Qing were recorded by someone with ulterior motives. Later, someone claimed that the original host had forced Wen Zhi Yan to marry her, and by chance, she saved Old Master Wen.
Fang Miao Miao used these two events to force Wen Zhi Yan to marry her.
As for the third topic, cheating.
It was the scene of her and Wen Wenlan being injured in the theater and falling on top of each other, with a filter added, creating a picture of tender intimacy.
If she wasn't the original host, she would have believed it.
"Finished reading?"
Fang Miao Miao nodded and said, "Yes, I've finished. I have to say, these people have very active imaginations."
Zeng Nian said helplessly: "Regarding the Wen Wenlan incident, I've already contacted Wen Wenlan's agent. They're willing to come forward and clarify. But what about Old Madam Ran's side?"
"Oh, Old Madam Ran said it right. I saved Old Master Wen, and Wen Zhi Yan felt they owed me a favor, so he offered himself in return." Fang Miao Miao said honestly.
"Then, the 'domineering president forces himself on the innocent girl' scenario?"
"No," Fang Miao Miao blushed, "that event was fake. We were innocent."
Even the original host had never done that with Wen Zhi Yan.
She didn't notice that as she spoke about this, Wen Zhi Yan had just hung up the phone and was standing at the doorway, looking at her with a half-smile.
"Miao Miao."
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Nian. There are too many people behind the scenes, and I'm also very helpless."
"Don't be afraid. The main people attacking you are Wen Wenlan's fans. Once they clarify, the pressure will be much less, and we'll have more time to investigate other scandals."
Fang Miao Miao felt like crying and laughing: "But, these are all true. The reason the person behind the scenes is dumping all this out at once is probably to make us panic. Why should we be in such a hurry?"
Wouldn't rushing play right into their hands?
Zeng Nian was silent. She had met many artists who, when facing scandals, were either nervous, scared, or even wanted to pursue a path of notoriety. Someone like Miao Miao was truly rare.
