"What does it matter if you fall in love? What does it matter if you don’t?" The man was indifferent, always adept at hiding his emotions, and now even more so, not giving anything away, with a cold smile on his face as if he truly didn’t care about the matter.
However, who could see the turmoil within his heart?
"If you’ve fallen in love with her, then go and win her back, or what, are you planning to be single for life?" Lu Jingchen paused as he said this, then as if suddenly thinking of something, he laughed, "But given your own condition, just your face alone without counting your worth, the number of women in An City who want to marry you could circle the Ring River quite a few times. If you can’t be with Ning Wan, just randomly pick a woman to marry."
Xi Mohan gave him a disdainful glance, sneered, and spoke, "I didn’t even want Ning Yan’er, do you think I’d look at any other women?"
Lu Jingchen, "..." Fine, just stay single then.
In terms of looks, Ning Yan’er is considered quite a beauty too, but compared to that woman Ning Wan, she’s still a bit lacking.
In terms of status, few people in An City can match the eldest daughter of the Ning Family, but if it were back in the days when Ning Wan was the second daughter of the Ning Family, she’d still be a bit more noble than Ning Yan’er.
After all, the control of the Ning Family used to be in the hands of Ning Wan’s parents, but after they unexpectedly died, it fell into the hands of Ning Yan’er’s parents.
However, no one expected Ning Yan’er’s parents to be so ruthless; even holding half of Ning Group’s shares, they didn’t spare Ning Wan, coveted the shares she held, and even drove her out of the Ning Family.
As for Ning Yan’er, even her parents, Lu Jingchen didn’t really have a good impression, but when Xi Mohan was with them, there was a sense of having to face them often, so he didn’t express his dislike.
"Are you planning to stay single for life?" Lu Jingchen raised an eyebrow at him, directly questioning.
Xi Mohan’s eyes darkened slightly, but he responded, "I don’t have such plans for now."
Originally, when he was with Ning Yan’er, there were only two reasons: one was because Ning Yan’er was the only one among An City’s many prestigious young ladies who seemed suitable to be the Xi Family’s Young Mistress, but at that time he didn’t consider marriage.
The other reason was because he loved but could not have Ning Wan, and Ning Yan’er was that woman’s cousin...
Lu Jingchen suddenly lost the desire to continue chatting with him, stood up directly, "Forget it, I can’t say much about your matters, I have to return to the company."
"You and Ning Wan now don’t seem to have much of a chance anymore, don’t forget she just recently lost a child that belonged to both of you due to a car accident."
Picking up his car keys and phone, he took a few steps and then stopped, speaking to the man still sitting there motionless, "But if you really want to continue being with her, you’d better think of ways to bridge the gaps and misunderstandings between you, otherwise when she really doesn’t want you anymore, it’ll be too late for regret."
Right until Lu Jingchen left, Xi Mohan didn’t move an inch.
"You and Ning Wan now don’t seem to have much of a chance anymore."
"Don’t forget she just recently lost a child that belonged to both of you due to a car accident."
"But if you really want to continue being with her, you’d better think of ways to bridge the gaps and misunderstandings between you, otherwise when she really doesn’t want you anymore, it’ll be too late for regret."
These words seemed like a spell, constantly resurfacing in his mind, after a long while, the man slightly lowered his eyes, but coldly laughed, "Hah!"
...
In the Mu Family’s living room, Ning Wan slept for two hours, then sat on the sofa in the living room with Song Qiao, each holding a bag of chips while watching Korean dramas.
"Wanwan, what’s going on between you and Xi Mohan?" Finally unable to suppress her curiosity, Song Qiao turned her head to Ning Wan and asked directly.
Ning Wan paused in her action, then pretended to be indifferent, continuing to eat chips and casually replied, "Just like that, what’s up?"
"Nothing." Song Qiao thought for a moment and decided not to tell her about Xi Mohan’s phone call, since it wasn’t anything major, just a call with a couple of sentences, and all he did was ask if Ning Wan was with her, so it didn’t really matter whether she mentioned it or not.
