"If you come to the hospital, I'll tell you. Have you ever thought that if this matter is handled well, Shen Xizhou won't make things difficult for you, and your and your brother's lives will be easier."
"It seems that your brother really admires Shen Xizhou. If he knew Shen Xizhou hated you to death, do you think your brother would be happy or sad?"
Seeing that An Nuan was tempted, she said more firmly, "As long as you come to the hospital and find me, I will tell you all the truth. Isn't this what you've always wanted to know? Now that you have such a good opportunity, don't you want to cherish it?"
"Xu Ruowei, I don't know why you're calling me to say this, but I don't want to know. Please don't call again."
"Also, you want to scheme against me, I'm not an idiot to stand there and let you scheme." An Nuan said coldly, and then hung up the phone.
Actually, she had been moved. Yun Xiu's face was full of pride when he spoke of Shen Xizhou. Shen Xizhou was a special existence to Yun Xiu. However, Shen Xizhou's change had made Yun Xiu's mood very bad.
She knew that Xu Ruowei was telling her this because she just wanted to scheme against her. She had already made her intentions very clear. Whether or not to jump into this pit was up to her.
Xu Ruowei could call her so brazenly and say these things, which meant she was already certain that An Nuan would agree. Even if she didn't agree, if she spread these words, no one would believe her.
An Nuan knew Xu Ruowei better than anyone.
Everything she was experiencing now was orchestrated by Xu Ruowei.
Ever since Xu Ruowei fell for Shen Xizhou, and ever since she was with Shen Xizhou, Xu Ruowei had been present in their lives.
Everyone knew about Xu Ruowei's feelings for Shen Xizhou.
She knew that Xu Ruowei would definitely find ways to be with Shen Xizhou.
It was just that she hadn't expected her to be so desperate, to the point of destroying those whom Shen Xizhou cared about. Sometimes, she truly felt that Xu Ruowei was terrifying.
Thinking about what Xu Ruowei had done to her all these years, and how she presented a different face to Shen Xizhou, a chill ran down her spine.
She couldn't understand. She had already told Xu Ruowei that she gave up on Shen Xizhou and could be with him without any scruples. Yet, Xu Ruowei didn't believe her and continued to obsess over her.
What An Nuan couldn't understand even more was that Wang Xuerou was Xu Ruowei's cousin, yet Xu Ruowei had tried to kill Wang Xuerou just to get Shen Xizhou, and then framed her for everything.
Xu Ruowei's call and her words did indeed move An Nuan. She wanted to clear the suspicion surrounding her.
An Nuan was almost tempted to go find Xu Ruowei.
Perhaps, she could try.
Heaven wouldn't torment one person forever.
Just then, she received a text message.
The message read: "Sister Nuan, do you remember me? I'm Ji Wenyun."
An Nuan looked at the message, it was him. The person who had helped her during her most difficult times.
When she was harmed by Xu Ruowei and had nowhere to go, almost dying, it was Ji Wenyun who helped her. Because of helping her, Ji Wenyun was targeted by Xu Ruowei, leading to his company's collapse, and Ji Wenyun lost everything.
Ji Wenyun was implicated because of her.
Even though Ji Wenyun had lost his home and company, he still helped her. Ji Wenyun stayed by her side, constantly encouraging her, telling her that as long as she was alive, there was hope.
"Those who slandered you will eventually be cleared. If you die, the truth will forever be buried in darkness, and what you haven't done will be attached to you for a lifetime. Even if you really didn't do it, you're gone, and people will say whatever they want. Do you accept this, An Nuan?"
Besides Shen Xizhou, Ji Wenyun was the only person who had ever been so good to her.
If it weren't for him, she probably wouldn't have survived.
Ji Wenyun told her, "You can die if you want, but what about your mother? What about your brother? What will happen to them? If you die, they will live in pain forever. An Nuan, do you know that's irresponsible?"
Ji Wenyun eventually disappeared from her life for some unknown reason. There was no longer any mention of him, as if he had never existed.
If not for this text message, she would have doubted if Ji Wenyun was just a figment of her imagination.
But now, with Ji Wenyun's reappearance, she knew it wasn't her imagination; it was real.
Perhaps, she could introduce Yun Xiu to Ji Wenyun. With Ji Wenyun around, Yun Xiu's life would be secure.
An Nuan quickly called, but only a cold, mechanical voice replied, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is no longer in service."
She looked at the text message and the phone number, it was indeed the correct number. But why was it an invalid number? Was something wrong? She tried calling again and again, but the result was always the same.
It felt like hope had appeared, only to be instantly dashed.
An Nuan searched online for information about Ji Wenyun. On a small website, she finally found something. The information at the address was not detailed, so she decided to go there in person.
Now, she could only hope her luck would be better and she would find him.
Finally, her efforts paid off, and she found Ji Wenyun.
However, she discovered that people from the Xu family were with him. Wang Huiqin seemed to be saying something to him, and he kept nodding, looking as if he was very familiar with Wang Huiqin.
Was she mistaken?
An Nuan walked up to Ji Wenyun and said, "Ji Wenyun, how have you been these past few years? You disappeared so suddenly, and I was worried about you. I don't know what happened to you."
The man's face was grim, his brow furrowed, as if he was extremely annoyed by the person in front of him.
"Miss, you've mistaken me for someone else. I am not the person you know."
Ji Wenyun said coldly, his eyes showing obvious impatience.
For a moment, An Nuan doubted if she had mistaken him. She stubbornly took out her phone and dialed the number again, but the cold mechanical voice responded as before.
Had she really mistaken him?
Just as An Nuan reached out to grab the man's hand, Wang Huiqin appeared. She pushed An Nuan away directly and said coldly, "An Nuan, what's wrong? You see a man and you just pounce on him. Do you think every man in the world is meant for you?"
"Wenyun is not someone you can aspire to. He already has a fiancée, and they will be getting married soon."
"An Nuan, you ruined Ruowei's happiness, and I will never allow you to ruin Wenyun's happiness."
