Conquest of Rebirth

The relationship between Chen Yan and Wen Mu gradually began to reveal an ambiguous atmosphere. Although neither of them made it clear, they tacitly walked towards a more and more intimate direction. The time in college passed Soon, it will be the final exam.

The day before the holiday, Wen Mu asked Chen Yan what she was going to do after the holiday, and Chen Yan just replied, "Go home and have a look."

"Then how about going to my house for two days?" Wen Mu asked tentatively, looking at Chen Yan expectantly.

"Okay, entertain me as a guest then." Chen Yan readily complied, making Wen Mu smile with joy, and said, "Of course."

Wen Mu's home is in this city, but I don't know why, since he came to the school, he hasn't been back once. When he came home this time, he was picked up by someone in a car. Of course, he went there together And Chen Yan.

Standing in front of this somewhat quaint gate, Chen Yan thought for a moment that he had traveled to decades ago. The wall next to the gate was covered with a thick layer of dead vine leaves, which made the villa in front of him look like There is a strong sense of history, here is Wen Mu's home.

"Master, it's time to go in." The butler next to him reminded him in a timely manner, and Wen Mu led Chen Yan into the villa.

The architectural style in the villa adopts a combination of Chinese and Western methods, combining modern glitz with ancient restraint, forming a low-key luxury. Wen Mu once told Chen Yan that his family is in business, but the specific What, and to what extent, he did not say clearly.

In the living room on the first floor of the main building, Chen Yan met Wen Mu's parents. His father was a man who was almost 50 years old, and his mother looked like she was in her 40s. The difference is that his mother exudes a kind of self-cultivation and nobleness of the old ladies, but she doesn't seem to be in good health, her legs are covered with a thick blanket, and her face is a little sickly pale.

"Dad, Mom, this is my classmate Chen Yan." Wen Mu introduced Chen Yan to the two.

Chen Yan stood up, "Hello Uncle Wen, hello Aunt Wen."

"En", Wen Mu's father nodded, without much expression on his face, and then said in a formulaic way, "Remember to treat your classmates well. If you need anything, you can also tell the housekeeper." The last sentence is to Chen Yan of.

There was a strange atmosphere in the living room. The relationship between Wen Mu and his parents could not be said to be indifferent, but there was a polite alienation. Chen Yan could even feel the nervousness of Wen Mu sitting next to him. Several people said After a few words, Wen Mu and Chen Yan came out.

Standing at the door of the room arranged for Chen Yan, Wen Mu took two cups of hot drinks in his hands, knocked on the door, and walked in. At this time, Chen Yan was standing by the window sill, looking outside.

"What are you looking at?" Wen Mu asked as he walked towards Chen Yan.

"Look at your garden." Chen Yan turned her head, "It's very neatly trimmed."

"It's all repaired by workers." Wen Mu walked up to Chen Yan and handed Chen Yan a drink, "How is it? Is it okay to live in this room?"

"Well, it's good."

"That's good. The day after tomorrow, we have a party at home, and some people should come."

"Do you need me to prepare anything?"

"No, no, no, I just want to tell you that it has nothing to do with us." Wen Mu quickly explained, then took the cup in Chen Yan's hand and said with a smile, "Are you tired, why don't you go to rest first, let's go out tomorrow Play."

After Wen Mu stayed here for a while, he left. As soon as Wen Mu left, Chen Yan called Yan Minghui: "Minghui, help me check things, I want the information of the Wen family in this city... ..."

The Wen family's party two days later was very grand, a bit beyond Chen Yan's expectations. On this day, many people came to the Wen family's family, and they were all celebrities with wealth and status. It was truly a gathering of the upper class.

At this moment, on the balcony on the second floor, Chen Yan and Wen Mu were standing side by side against the railing, with a bright starry sky above their heads, and a flickering reception below. It was lively, but the two of them didn't seem to be ready to go down.

Wen's family is in the jewelry business. Wen's Treasure Shop was established before the founding of the People's Republic of China and has a history of a hundred years. It is considered a top jeweler in the country. Their jewelry is high-end and mainly serves the upper class.

The previous boss of the Wen family had no sons, only one daughter named Wen Qian, so they found a son-in-law, who is the current boss, Zhou Shaocheng. The daughter Wen Qian is a well-educated young lady, but her health is not very good. After getting married, she gave birth to a son, but this son was born with heart disease and died not long after. After the death of the son, Wen Qian's health became worse and she never gave birth to another child.

Later, Zhou Shaocheng fell in love with a lady at the night show, and this lady gave birth to a son for him. Wen Qian was very angry when she found out about this. They cut off contact until eight years ago. Zhou Shaocheng and Wen Qian, who were already in their 40s, still had no children. Can agree to take this child over, but this child cannot have Zhou Shaocheng's surname, only Wen, which is now Wen Mu.

Thinking of the things Yan Minghui said on the phone during the day, Chen Yan couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional, no wonder Wen Mu always gave people a feeling of cowardice and inferiority despite having such a wealthy status.

Chen Yan lowered her head and looked downstairs. The reception was still going on. In fact, this reception was a charity reception held to raise funds for children with heart disease. The Wen family would auction off their company's latest jewelry this year at the reception, and the proceeds from the auction All the money will be donated to those children with heart disease. At this time of year, Wen’s family will hold this reception. Chen Yan suddenly understands that this charity reception is probably because of Wen Qian’s child who died young. .

"Chen Yan." Wen Mu next to him suddenly called out, pulling back Chen Yan's thoughts. Chen Yan turned her head and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"I have something I've always wanted to tell you." In the dimness, Wen Mu's expression could not be seen clearly, only from his voice, he seemed a little nervous.

"What?"

"Actually, I, I've always liked -----"

"Master." At this moment, the housekeeper suddenly came in and interrupted Wen Mu, "Madam asked you to come over."

"Oh, I see, I'll go right away." Wen Mu turned to look at the butler and replied, and when he looked at Chen Yan again, he was a little embarrassed: "Chen Yan, I'm sorry, I'll go there first."

"En, good." Chen Yan nodded.

Not long after Wen Mu left, Chen Yan also went downstairs. At this time, there were several one-legged tables in the hall on the first floor, and there were glass boxes on the tables. The boxes contained precious jewels. Everyone in the hall was looking at the jewels with great interest. The auction will not start until later, and it is only in the appreciation stage now.

Chen Yan was looking around in the hall, but suddenly, his eyes caught a few unexpected people, Yan Haobo, Qi Wenqing and Xi Yichen also came, and the three of them were talking together.

Chen Yan turned around and wanted to leave. He didn't want to meet Yan Haobo and the others here, but just as soon as he turned around, he saw a person walking in front of him, talking on the phone anxiously while walking: "Why is this happening? How is the person doing?" It's all right, don't say anything, take the person to the hospital first, and I'll be there right away." This person is exactly Lu Mengli.

Lu Mengli hung up the phone, and when he looked up, he saw Chen Yan. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here? Great, I was just looking for you."

Chen Yan frowned, but still held back and said: "Sorry, Mr. Lu, I have something to do right now, so I'm leaving first."

"Wait." Lu Mengli grabbed Chen Yan's arm and stopped him. Maybe because he felt that he was overreacting, Lu Mengli let go of his hand immediately, "I'm sorry," he said with a smile In a word, his face returned to his usual appearance, and he said with a smile, "I gave you my business card last time, and I have been waiting for your call. I didn't expect you to not reply to me after such a long time."

"By the way, did you come with Mr. Xi today? I saw him just now---" Lu Mengli was talking to Chen Yan at a loss for words. Suddenly, he looked behind Chen Yan He said, "Oh, isn't that Young Master Xi, I'll call him over." As he said that, he was about to call Xi Yichen.

"Stop barking." Chen Yan was startled, and quickly stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Lu Mengli asked suspiciously, but quickly realized, "Didn't you come with Mr. Xi?"

Seeing that Chen Yan didn't answer, Lu Mengli smiled again and said, "It seems that you really came with someone else, why, do you need me to keep it a secret for you?" He looked at Chen Yan, as if he had caught Chen Yan's handle Then he said, "Actually, it has nothing to do with me who you come with, but I need your help with something today, alas! Mr. Xi and the others are here." Lu Mengli suddenly called out in a low voice, and saw Xi Yichen Sure enough, they came here.

"Help me get out of here, I agree to your terms." Chen Yan said.

"Okay." Lu Mengli laughed immediately, and when he finished speaking, he suddenly pushed Chen Yan onto the pillar next to him, and then pressed his whole body onto it. From behind, it looked like two people were having a passionate conversation. Kissing, Yan Haobo and the others walked over here, just glanced at Chen Yan and the others, and didn't care at all.

As soon as Yan Haobo and the others left, Chen Yan immediately pushed Lu Mengli away, his face was cold, and then wiped his cheek with his hand.

"It's a pity I didn't kiss your lips." Lu Mengli added his lower lip and said vaguely, "It's fine now, let's go."
