Chapter 308: Chapter 303: Rip Off Her Human Skin Mask
Ji Wei lowered her gaze, looking at her abdomen, her lips curling in self-mockery, yet she still agreed.
Actually, she didn’t want to wander down that street anymore. It was there she first saw the sweetness between Leng Yan and Wen Nuan. Whenever she went there, it was like a dull needle stabbing into her heart. No blood, but the pain was unbearable.
She had to admit, after three years, she fell in love with Leng Yan once again. One could even say, more intensely than three years ago.
He was handsome, talented, and kind back then, but he lacked "wealth"!
Now, he hadn’t lost anything he should have, and had even become a genius in the business world with impressive assets that made her unable to let go.
However, she was wrong again. She didn’t know that he had long lost his love for her, and had gained a loving wife.
"Traffic jam!"
Xiao Liu, extremely annoyed, stopped the car, very much bothered. Traveling by car on weekends was really inconvenient.
"I’ll get off here; find a parking spot and call me then."
Ji Wei, bored, looked outside the window. Where they were now, there were quite a few bridal shops, and the beautiful wedding dresses on the window mannequins caught her attention.
Wen Nuan and Leng Yan walked along the pedestrian street together, not going to the mall, just wandering from one shop to another without buying anything. Yet holding hands inevitably brought smiles to their faces. However, Wen Nuan’s pace was getting slower and slower.
"Getting slower and slower." Leng Yan stopped, raised his brow, and looked at her.
"My feet hurt a little. You insisted that I wear such high shoes to match this dress." Wen Nuan looked down at her beautiful sparkling shoes and looked up to complain.
"This is my fault. Come, I’ll carry you for a bit."
Leng Yan smiled silently, crouching down slowly in front of her.
"Forget it, people will laugh at us." Wen Nuan glanced at the people around, feeling a bit embarrassed. However, she actually really wanted to; his back was so comfortable and reassuring. She knew this even in her dreams three years ago.
"Get on!" He emphasized still squatting. Wen Nuan giggled and hopped on his back, hugging his neck tightly. "Dear, let’s go, I want to see wedding dresses!"
She recognized this street; it was the one she fainted on. She remembered foolishly staring at wedding dresses in a store for a long time back then.
Her heart ached to death then, but now, with no scruples, she teased him, feeling their love tangibly; her heart was flooded with joy, blooming the most beautiful flower.
Outside a bridal photography shop, Ji Wei stared blankly at an enlarged romantic wedding photo outside the store. Memories of Leng Yan standing beside her when she joined Qingcheng Entertainment came flooding back. She also thought of the time when everyone urged him to kiss her, she leaned in actively, yet Leng Yan indifferently turned away.
Tears flowed down along her large sunglasses. She was glad she hadn’t put on makeup, or it would be a mess now. After wiping her tears and planning to leave, the laughter of a man and a woman pierced her ears, sparking a shock in her heart.
Such familiar voices, even more jarring than those heard on the pedestrian street that day! Without turning around, Ji Wei’s fingers had quietly clenched.
"Yan, put me down, stop fooling around!" Carried by him, the attention of passersby drawn by their charm made Wen Nuan’s face blush; she finally couldn’t stand it anymore, pleading. However, Leng Yan didn’t listen and laughed heartily, deliberately scaring her by running.
Ji Wei just listened without turning, staring at the wedding photo blankly. Her expression darkened, and her fingers laced tightly, her knuckles turning an eerie white.
Wen Nuan didn’t seem to be affected by what happened; she actually forgave Leng Yan so quickly, and both laughed so heartily.
Shameless woman! Just like that, she tolerated his infidelity? She really clung to Leng Yan like a dogskin plaster, and couldn’t be peeled off!
The more she thought, the angrier she got, wanting to rush up just like that, but her feet stopped after a couple of steps, her fingers slowly loosened, lightly touching her abdomen, eyes flashing a coldness like the snow of midwinter.
She had to be cautious; the plan she devised could not be ruined by anger clouding her mind!
"These wedding photos look nice, want to go in and check them out?" Leng Yan asked her with a smile.
"Sure." Wen Nuan’s eyes were also drawn in, nodding happily: "Yan, look, the one on the far left is the best taken..."
Wen Nuan’s words came to a sudden halt.
In front of that photo stood a woman, with big wavy curls, clad in a light green chiffon dress highlighting her tall and prominent figure. Even though she wore sunglasses, how could she not recognize her?
After all, she left a deep impression on her!
Leng Yan, carrying her, also stopped, staring at the woman not far away, the look in his eyes gradually deepening.
Wen Nuan’s arms around his neck loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened again. He looked down, his heart aching, softly calling her, "Nuannuan."
"Should we still go see?" Wen Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, lying on his shoulder, softly asking, holding his neck more tightly.
"Do you want to?" Leng Yan asked softly, lifting her slightly upwards, having no intention of putting her down: "If you want, we will go and see."
"Yan?"
Unable to bear such a gentle voice, Ji Wei turned her head, somewhat dazedly looking at Leng Yan, her watery eyes with a thin mist, as if tears could fall the next moment. Yet she seemed quite stubborn, slightly turning her head, gently wiping with the back of her hand before turning back, softly smiling, "Out shopping?"
Wen Nuan pursed her lips, does he only have eyes for her? She’s right there on his back, right? Also, Ji Bailian, how is she so good at crying, even making her almost want to sympathize.
"No filming today?" Leng Yan glanced at Ji Wei, asking indifferently.
Ji Wei smiled faintly, her voice carrying a bit of helplessness, "Yes, not feeling well."
"Then go back and rest." Really didn’t want to say much else. Thinking of what happened that day, Leng Yan was irritated. He had no proof to determine who was wrong, but the matter had happened, and it made him sick to think about!
He lifted Wen Nuan up again, freeing a hand to point at the wedding photo Ji Wei had been looking at, "I think this style is nice, Nuannuan, what style do you like?"
Wen Nuan cheerfully hopped off his back, ran to that photo and looked closely several times, "I like it too, but the store should have many more, why don’t we go in and look slowly."
Leng Yan chuckled lightly, "Then let’s go in and have a look."
"Alright, just as well, you can rest a bit first inside. Carrying me for so long, you must be tired." Wen Nuan said, smiling intently, deliberately glancing at Ji Wei.
Ji Wei still wore a broad smile, even chiming in, "I think it’s very beautiful, too."
Wen Nuan was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth, having to admit she really admired Ji Wei; no matter how much she hated her inside, she still kept a smile on her face, but the more she looked, the more fake it appeared, making her want to rip off that "Human Skin Mask".
