"I had dinner with a friend before coming back."
Leng Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his lips moved, but he didn’t speak.
It wasn’t until his bowl was empty that he handed over the stomach medicine, "Take the medicine. I’m a bit tired, I’ll go to sleep first."
He said urgently, leaving as if to escape.
The night grew deeper. Nuannuan lay alone in bed, hearing the door open, she quickly closed her eyes. Feeling the quilt beside her being lifted, a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"Why did you go to work at MT?"
Leng Yan lay on his back, asking in a low voice.
Knowing that Ji Wei’s gown was delivered by her, he guessed that she now worked at MT. But at that time, he wanted to retaliate against Ji Wei and had no time. Recently, both the company and Qingcheng Entertainment have been very busy, leaving him with little time.
Wen Nuan bit her lip, unsure of what to say.
She went to MT because of Tan Qing, but would telling him that cause a misunderstanding? She still remembered how he humiliated her when he saw her with her big brother.
"MT has strict requirements for education and experience, you didn’t even graduate from college, how did you get into MT?"
Without waiting for her to answer, Leng Yan asked again.
"I know General Manager Tan, he has seen my designs, so he was willing to hire me at MT." Wen Nuan explained about the shirt torn by Jack that belonged to Tan Qing.
"Did you make one for Tan Qing personally? Was it necessary?"
Leng Yan suddenly sat up, his tone rising. Realizing his reaction was too intense, he lay back down, saying lightly, "Don’t get too close to him. You’re too naive, be careful not to be deceived."
"I won’t, he’s a good person." Wen Nuan denied, a bitter smile on her lips.
Being close means not being deceived? At least with Tan Qing, she’s happy, but with him... she always has to be cautious, making her feel exhausted.
"Wen Nuan, don’t forget you’re married, don’t get too close to other men." Gritting his teeth, Leng Yan finally couldn’t help but sourly say, turning his back to her, no longer speaking.

In the Leng Group’s senior meeting room, the meeting had just ended, and the executives were filing out.
Leng Yan followed them out when a gentle voice called him.
"Is there something, big brother?" Leng Yan raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a half-smile, looking at Leng Ye, always wearing an innocent smile.
Leng Ye took a few steps forward, his gaze calm, "Mom called you last night, but your phone was off. She told you to call her back today."
"With the old man not here, there’s no need to act so brotherly." Leng Yan said, a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
Ha, Li Qiu is only his mom, when did Leng Ye ever truly consider her as mom?
As the son of the legitimate wife, when did he ever see Li Qiu as mom or him as a brother?
"Just remember to call her. She entrusted me with this in front of dad, I must remind you." Leng Ye frowned slightly, then stepped out of the meeting room.
In the office, Leng Yan hesitated for a moment, then decided to call Li Qiu.
"What’s going on with you, child? Not only did you not notify your father about investing in Qingcheng, but you also signed Ji Wei."
Li Qiu looked around to ensure no one was there, then asked through gritted teeth, her expression one of disappointment, "Yan, you’ve always been a rational child, how could you do something ? Have you forgotten what she did then? Women like her can’t have true feelings."
Happy New Year, kisses to everyone o(*￣3￣)o
