Chapter 150 Liu Yan begs Wen Jiguang for forgiveness
Huo Yanchuan was also shocked after hearing what Wenrou said.
"You mean, he'll grow up to be the boss of a criminal organization?"
Even though he already found it incredible enough that Wenrou knew about what happened in her past life, he still found it hard to believe after hearing about Xiaobao.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't believe what Wenrou said, it was just that he didn't expect Xiaobao's future identity to be so unexpected.
Wenrou nodded firmly. "I'm sure it's him."
Seeing how agitated she was, Huo Yanchuan calmed her down a bit and said, "If what you said is true, then he is indeed still young. We still have a chance, and there's still time, so there's no need to rush."
Hearing Huo Yanchuan's words, Wenrou nodded, calming herself down from her earlier nervousness.
She was utterly shocked; she never imagined that the biggest criminal from her past life was right beside her, and was still just a child.
Anyone would find it difficult to remain calm in this situation.
"I'll handle Wen Jinian's case. In the meantime, you stay home and take care of the two children. Also, try to build a good relationship with Xiaobao and see if you can get any other useful clues from him."
If Xiao Bao really was the person who raided the spy organization's hideout in his past life, then he would definitely know something.
Wenrou understood what Huo Yanchuan meant. She finally calmed down and realized that the more anxious she was, the less effective it would be.
There's still more than a month until my second brother from my past life was executed; there's still time for everything.
She believed that Huo Yanchuan would definitely handle her second brother's matter well, but she was worried about his arm injury.
"Is your arm alright?"
It was only then that she realized that since returning home, all her thoughts had been on her family, and she had even overlooked the injury on his arm.
With his one arm, he not only had to help her take care of her two children, but also find out news about her second brother. Moreover, he also had to comfort her and soothe her anxious emotions.
Thinking of this, Wenrou felt a little guilty. Looking at Huo Yanchuan, she said somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry, I've neglected you these past few days."
Huo Yanchuan was taken aback when he heard her sudden apology. After a moment, he smiled and reached out to rub her face. "Why are you being so polite with your man? If you feel indebted to me, be gentler when you kick me off the bed next time, or consider my previous suggestion? After all, we've already bought it, why don't you wear it and show it to me?"
When Wenrou heard this, she thought of the night he took out a pair of black stockings from his pocket, and her face immediately turned red.
She remembered that this man used to never even glance at women, so how come he's becoming more and more promiscuous now? Is this what they call a brooding, unrefined man?
"You... what time is it, and you're still thinking about this?"
I wonder where he learned that?
Huo Yanchuan rarely saw Wenrou blush and be shy like this, and his smile widened.
He was just saying that to tease her, to distract her from thinking about Wen Jinian and putting more pressure on her.
In the past, whenever this kind of thing came up, she would change the subject or just kick him off the bed.
What he didn't expect this time was that Wenrou would agree so readily.
"We'll talk about this when we get back."
Huo Yanchuan was stunned. Looking at his wife, he realized she didn't seem to be joking. He even had the urge to carry her back right now.
"Don't worry, my arm is fine, don't fret." Huo Yanchuan finally became a little more serious.
Hearing him say that, Wenrou felt relieved.
No matter what happens, his presence always makes her feel much more at ease.
"Mom left you some food. Clean up and eat something." Seeing that it was almost time, Huo Yanchuan went to the kitchen and brought the food to Wenrou.
Seeing that Wenrou's attitude towards Xiaobao had changed yesterday, Li Xiuying specially made her favorite food today.
Wenrou was already used to it. Although Xiaobao wasn't her second brother's child, judging from his attitude towards Li Xiuying, he truly treated her as his own grandmother.
Although Li Xiuying's preference for sons over daughters is deeply ingrained and cannot be changed, she sometimes has a good side.
For example, even though she didn't like her two daughters, she still found two red envelopes by her bedside when she woke up in the morning.
Although there wasn't much money inside, it was still a token of her affection.
She even remembered what she liked to eat for breakfast, and specially prepared it for her and left it in the pot.
Thinking of this, she sighed gently.
Oh well, what can I do? She's my own mother.
After dinner, Wenrou was about to go inside when Liu Xiaoyu came looking for her.
"Xiao Rou".
She looked at her gently and asked, "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
Seeing the smile on her face, Wenrou became even more puzzled.
"Xiao Rou, guess who I ran into today?" Liu Xiaoyu said, laughing again.
"Who is it?" Wenrou became even more curious when she saw how happy she was.
"It's Liu Yan. She's back, and not only that, she's heavily pregnant. I heard she found a man in his sixties outside, and she insists the child is his, no one knows whose it is. But when she was exposed, her lover packed his bags and ran away."
As the topic came up, Liu Xiaoyu couldn't hold back any longer.
"I also heard that she was swindled out of all her money and now wants to go back to her parents' home, but her family thinks she's a burden and won't let her in. She's sitting at the door crying right now."
The news about Liu Yan spread throughout the village this morning, and Wenrou only just found out about it.
Hearing Liu Xiaoyu mention this incident, Wenrou felt relieved.
Her brother suffered so much at her hands in his past life, and her current predicament is entirely her own choice. She deserves it.
"Back then, she was afraid that her brother's broken leg would be a burden to her, so she abandoned him and ran away alone. A person like her doesn't deserve sympathy," Wenrou coldly snorted.
"Yes, she brought this on herself," Liu Xiaoyu nodded in agreement.
If she hadn't chosen to leave Jiguang back then, I wouldn't have had the chance.
Ji Guang was such a good person, and she didn't cherish him back then. Now she's ended up like this, and she really doesn't deserve any sympathy.
Just as the two were talking about Liu Yan, there was a knock on the door.
Hearing the sound, Liu Xiaoyu went over and opened the door, only to see Liu Yan standing at the door with her big pregnant belly.
"Liu Yan?" Liu Xiaoyu was also taken aback when she saw Liu Yan.
Liu Yan glared at Liu Xiaoyu. She had just learned that Wen Jiguang's leg was fine; his leg wasn't useless, and he was perfectly healthy.
"Where's Wen Jiguang? Tell him to come out!" Liu Yan shouted loudly at Liu Xiaoyu.
Liu Xiaoyu didn't expect Liu Yan to come looking for Wen Jiguang. Seeing that Liu Yan was about to rush inside, she reached out and grabbed her arm.
"Liu Yan, this is my home. What do you want with my husband?"
Liu Xiaoyu had been bullied by Liu Yan's family before, and she had long harbored resentment towards them. Now, seeing Liu Yan come to find Wen Jiguang, her face turned cold.
"Your husband? He clearly married me first. You used underhanded means to steal him from me, Liu Xiaoyu. You bitch, you've ruined me like this. I'm not done with you yet."
Liu Yan couldn't shake the feeling of injustice whenever she thought about it.
If everyone hadn't said that Wen Jiguang's leg was beyond saving, why would she have left?
As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped Liu Xiaoyu across the face.
Wenrou also walked to the door at this moment, looking at Liu Yan with no particular expression on her face.
He reached out and blocked her arm, throwing her body away.
"Liu Yan, what are you doing at my house? And you even dared to hit my family members, who gave you the guts?"
Upon seeing Wenrou, Liu Yan was taken aback, and then her expression turned even more unpleasant.
"Wenrou, don't think I don't know. You forced me to leave Jiguang, it was all part of your plan, wasn't it? Your whole family schemed against me, and I'm not letting this go."
Liu Yan regrets leaving Wen Jiguang every day. She returned this time knowing that her family would most likely not accept her into the family.
Her only hope was the Wen family and Wen Jiguang; she wanted to try and see if she could get back together with him.
After all, they were husband and wife, and there were still some feelings between them.
She was also prepared that she wouldn't mind if Wen Jiguang lost a leg.
After this incident, she realized how good Wen Jiguang had been to her and how important he was to her.
When she returned, she could roughly guess that if Wen Jiguang really lost a leg, no one would be willing to marry him.
I'll cry in front of him, and he'll soften and agree to get back together.
She had everything planned out when she came back, but she never expected that Wen Jiguang not only didn't break his leg, but also married Liu Xiaoyu, whom she looked down on the most, and even had a child.
How could Liu Xiaoyu, a widow, be worthy of Jiguang?
Liu Yan couldn't accept this fact, so she came directly to confront the Wen family and Liu Xiaoyu.
Wenrou smiled immediately upon hearing Liu Yan's words.
"Liu Yan, I never expected you to be so shameless? Back then, you left because you thought my older brother had lost a leg and might be crippled in the future, afraid he would be a burden to you. Now you're heavily pregnant, carrying my bastard child, and you've come to our house wanting to get back together with my older brother. Do you really think our Wen family will accept any kind of trash?"
Although Wenrou didn't physically harm Liu Yan, her words were like a slap in the face.
"You...you say one more word to me? Where is Wen Jiguang? Make him come out and see me. I want him to give me an explanation." Liu Yan continued to make a scene at the Wen family's door.
Just then, Li Xiuying returned with Xiaobao.
Upon hearing that Liu Yan, heavily pregnant, was making a scene at her doorstep demanding to see her eldest son, she immediately took her baby home.
Seeing Liu Yan made her furious.
She stepped forward, rolled up her sleeves, pointed at Liu Yan, and shouted, "Pah! You shameless slut! I don't know which wild man got you pregnant. You left because you thought my son was a burden, everyone in the village knows that. And now you still have the nerve to come back to my son begging to get back together? Get the hell out of here and don't dirty our door..."
It has to be said that when it comes to cursing, Li Xiuying is the best.
She's such a shrew; the dirtier and more vulgar her words, the more she curses.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yan turned pale with anger.
If it were in the past, she would have definitely gone up and started fighting with Li Xiuying.
But she's pregnant now, and she's almost full term. If she goes up and makes a move, she'll definitely be the one who suffers.
At this moment, other villagers who heard the commotion also ran over to see what was going on.
When they learned that Liu Yan still harbored the idea of getting back together with Wen Jiguang, everyone around her couldn't stand it anymore.
"Xiuying is right. You were the one who looked down on Jiguang back then. He had just been carried down from the mountain, and you ran away without even showing up. How dare you come here now?"
"So, Jiguang and Xiaoyu are doing just fine now, and they even have a daughter. Why should he want to get back together with you?"
"Liu Yan, stop embarrassing yourself. Who knows whose child you're carrying? Even if Jiguang is already married with a wife, no single man in our village would want you."
Hearing the voices of those around her, Liu Yan's expression grew increasingly grim.
She was already feeling wronged, having been cheated out of her money and sexually assaulted, and then getting pregnant. Now, hearing these people say such hurtful things only made her feel even more aggrieved.
She shouted, "What's it to you? Get out of here!"
Liu Yan was already on the verge of a mental breakdown. If she had known it would turn out this way, she would never have left Wen Jiguang.
She now regrets it; she can't believe that Wen Jiguang has no feelings for her at all.
"I want to see Jiguang, please let me see him."
Wen Jiguang was the one who brought her back from the Liu family. On their wedding night, although she didn't let him touch her, Wen Jiguang had been so good to her since they got married.
No matter how I treated him, he never cared.
She has lost everything; the only thing she has left is Wen Jiguang.
She still remembered Wen Jiguang telling her on their wedding night that he would work hard to give her a good life.
"Get out of here! My son doesn't want to see you!" Li Xiuying said, reaching out to grab Liu Yan and try to drag her out.
Just then, Wen Jiguang's voice came from the crowd, "What's going on? What are you all doing gathered at our doorstep?"
He didn't know Liu Yan was back yet; he had worked all day yesterday and only came back this morning.
I just arrived at my doorstep and saw this scene. I wonder what trouble Li Xiuying has gotten into this time?
At that moment, Liu Yan saw Wen Jiguang's familiar face and almost pounced on him.
"Jiguang, I was wrong, I regret it. I shouldn't have left you. Can you forgive me?" Liu Yan cried out with tears streaming down her face the moment she saw Wen Jiguang.
"Liu Yan?" Wen Jiguang only noticed Liu Yan at this moment.
He was shocked to see her like this, but his expression quickly changed.
"Liu Yan, we've had nothing to do with each other for a long time. Why are you causing trouble at my house?"
