Chapter 1836: Truly a Stupid Method

Since both parties are in a cooperative relationship, the lawyer hopes everyone can be a bit more candid.

It's a pity...

There are some things Xie Wanyi cannot tell others.

He can only face them himself.

Taking a light breath, Xie Wanyi smiled at the lawyer.

Then he said, "I have no concerns."

The lawyer could tell that Xie Wanyi did not want to talk.

Since that was the case, he did not force the issue.

Only before parting did he promise Xie Wanyi: "Leave the matter to me; you can rest assured, I will do my utmost."

"I trust you; after all, you were introduced to me by Li Xingyan. It is not easy to gain his approval."

"Indeed, so it is also not easy for you."

Xie Wanyi raised his eyebrows, seemingly a bit confused.

The lawyer explained, "Mr. Li also praised you."

"Is that so? What did he praise me for?"

"He praised you for being calm and clear-headed, bold yet meticulous, and told me to perform well and not lose face for him."

The other party's description made Xie Wanyi immediately imagine a man in a suit and leather shoes, speaking those words of praise just now in a calm, unruffled tone...

This image made Xie Wanyi smile lightly.

The moment the smile bloomed, Xie Wanyi also completely relaxed.

Seeing this, the lawyer's mind stirred, and he opened his mouth, intending to probe Xie Wanyi's concerns once more.

But Xie Wanyi spoke first: "Then I look forward to your performance ahead."

As he said this, Xie Wanyi patted the lawyer on the shoulder.

Then he turned and left nimbly.

The lawyer watched Xie Wanyi's back, a look of helplessness on his face.

As expected, he is a person with very strong defenses.

The moment Xie Wanyi turned around, the smile on his face faded.

By the time he completely disappeared from the lawyer's sight, only coldness remained on Xie Wanyi's face.

Li Shu has truly sent him a grand gift this time!

Since he is so "enthusiastic," would it not be impolite if he didn't return the favor?

Xie Wanyi narrowed his eyes slightly, a trace of ferocity flashing across the depths of his gaze.

When eating dinner, Jiang Motian had no appetite.

She ate a couple of bites and returned to her room.

Once the bedroom door was closed, Jiang Motian curled up on the sofa and stared blankly at her phone.

She so hoped her phone would receive a call from someone.

But the more she looked forward to it, the quieter the phone remained.

It hadn't even received a single piece of spam!

Instead, there was a sudden knock at the door.

"Come in."

Li Xingyan pushed the door open and walked in.

In his hand, he held a steaming bowl of noodles.

He placed the bowl on the small table and said, "Mom saw you didn't eat much at dinner, so she specially cooked another bowl of noodles for you."

"I'm already full, I'm not hungry."

"You're not 'not hungry,' you're troubled. It's understandable to be troubled, but you can't skip meals; Mom and Dad will worry."

Li Xingyan hit the nail on the head, exposing Jiang Motian's little thoughts.

Jiang Motian simply laid her cards on the table.

She looked up and said, "You told me not to bother Wanyi, to give him time to handle important matters first."

"Yes, I said that. What about it?"

"But it's been several days, and Wanyi hasn't contacted me!!"

"He's busy, isn't it normal not to contact you?"

"It's not normal! In the past, no matter how busy he was, he would at least send me a message!"

"So, just because of this, you aren't eating properly?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Motian was truly anxious.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be unable to eat or sleep in peace.

But Li Xingyan showed a helpless expression and even teased her: "Look at how pathetic you are!"

This sarcastic remark made Jiang Motian angry.

She stood up with a start and said loudly, "If you find me an eyesore, then don't stay in my room!"

Jiang Motian was as fierce as a little leopard.

Li Xingyan was not angered by her impolite words.

He just asked helplessly: "If you have time to yell at me, why can't you just call Xie Wanyi?"

"Please, it was you who wouldn't let me contact Wanyi!"

"I didn't even want the two of you to be together in the first place, why didn't you listen?"

Li Xingyan's retort left Jiang Motian stunned.

Afterwards, she blinked and realized, saying: "I should have treated what you said as air a long time ago!"

This summary of hers left Li Xingyan speechless.

Seeing Jiang Motian pick up her phone, Li Xingyan pressed down on her arm again.

Then, under Jiang Motian's puzzled gaze, he said: "Eat the noodles first, I have to take the empty bowl back downstairs to report back."

"Then say so earlier, we could have chatted while eating just now!"

Jiang Motian picked up her chopsticks and slurped away as she ate.

Seeing her lack of table manners, Li Xingyan couldn't help but tease her again: "Look at how hopeless you are!"

Hopeless it is, then.

Jiang Motian had no time to engage in a war of words with Li Xingyan right now.

Finally, Li Xingyan left carrying the empty bowl.

Jiang Motian rubbed her round belly, leaned back on the sofa, and sighed at how full she was!

Jiang Motian let out a burp, reached out to grab her phone, and dialed the familiar number.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.

The moment it was picked up, Jiang Motian said impatiently: "Wanyi, are you busy? I want to talk to you?"

Who would have thought...

A woman's voice came through: "Miss, Mr. Xie has gone to the restroom. Do you need me to tell him you called later?"

The unfamiliar voice left Jiang Motian stunned.

Immediately, she noticed very loud music playing on the other end.

It was as if they were...

Jiang Motian furrowed her brows and asked: "Who are you?"

"I am a friend he just met."

"Are you at a bar?"

"Yes, are you a friend of Mr. Xie's too? You can come and join us; Mr. Xie was just saying he wanted to find two more friends!"

"No need, have a good time!"

After Jiang Motian finished speaking, she hung up the phone in a huff!

On this side of the phone, Ling Yu turned off the DJ music and then turned off the voice changer.

Then he looked at Xie Wanyi speechlessly.

As it turned out, the so-called woman was Ling Yu disguised using a voice changer.

The noisy "bar" music was a DJ dance track found on a phone, played through the speaker.

In reality, Xie Wanyi was at the Hospital.

As Xie Wanyi's accomplice, Ling Yu asked curiously: "How long do you think you can keep this trick up with her?"

"As long as I can; it is not appropriate for us to meet right now."

"So you deliberately made her angry to cut off the chance of meeting? Your method is really... stupid enough!"

"I would rather she be angry with me than have her and her family get dragged into the turmoil."

"But have you thought about what you would do if she had agreed to the invitation just now?"

"She wouldn't."

After Xie Wanyi said this with certainty, the phone rang again.

The call... was actually from Jiang Motian again.

This made Xie Wanyi immediately nervous, and he hurriedly signaled to Ling Yu.

Ling Yu sighed.

But he could only cooperate by turning on the voice changer and the speakers.

These two were prepared to repeat the same trick.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Motian asked right away: "Which bar are you at?"

Oh my, and he said she wouldn't come.

Isn't this coming to catch him in the act!

Ling Yu looked at Xie Wanyi with schadenfreude.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy, and the air seemed to freeze.
