Chapter 1188
She had no choice but to silently accept it.
The two chatted for a while,
and the sky darkened without them noticing.
Gu Hanyuan had the Wen family servants take An Xiaohui to the guest room to rest,
while he quietly snuck toward the courtyard where Wen Yi resided.
Upon arriving,
he found that Wen Qingqing had not yet left,
and had decided to spend the night at Wen Yi's place.
Clearly, the content of their conversation during the day had made her somewhat uneasy.
Wen Yi looked at Wen Qingqing, whom she had coaxed to sleep,
and sighed slightly in her heart,
her expression also quite troubled.
During the day, Wen Qingqing had suddenly asked her about matters concerning young women with a blushing face.
This was something a mother should teach her daughter,
but Wen Yi suddenly remembered what Gu Hanyuan had said about his relationship with Wen Qingqing,
and she panicked.
After all, she had been entangled with that man just last night,
and today her daughter was asking her how to handle such things.
She asked tentatively:
"Qingqing, do you have someone you fancy?"
Wen Qingqing's face flushed red,
but facing her closest mother,
how could she hide it?
Therefore, she told her everything about her and Gu Hanyuan.
Wen Yi learned of those rumors about Gu Hanyuan from Wen Qingqing's narrative,
and she was well aware of Wen Qingqing's thoughts.
Regardless of how much affection she had for Gu Hanyuan,
it certainly carried a part of her desire to use Gu Hanyuan to escape the Wen family.
Wen Yi said guiltily:
"It is Mother who has made you suffer."
Mother and daughter shared the same heart;
Wen Yi could understand Wen Qingqing's thoughts.
And how could Wen Qingqing not know Wen Yi's thoughts?
She smiled easily:
"Mother, I am not aggrieved. Although Brother Gu is a bit of a philanderer, he is very good to me. And he even saved me."
Hearing Gu Hanyuan's name,
Wen Yi felt even more guilty in her heart,
especially since she had run ahead of Wen Qingqing.
Even though there were uncontrollable accidental factors involved,
the fact remained.
Even though she felt some reluctance,
she still made up her mind to break off her relationship with Gu Hanyuan from now on.
She did not want to become enemies with Wen Qingqing in the future.
At the same time, because of last night's experience,
she was somewhat worried about whether Wen Qingqing could handle it.
Therefore, she told her all the precautions.
This caused Wen Qingqing's face to burn with heat.
Wen Qingqing felt she couldn't handle such shameful topics,
so she changed the subject:
"Speaking of which, today I saw the Wen family's enemy Xia Xueyi's weapon, the 'Jin Shejian,' in the hands of a young man. I wonder if Xia Xueyi is already dead."
Wen Yi was struck by lightning upon hearing this,
and exclaimed:
"Qingqing, what did you say! Is Xueyi dead?"
Because Wen Yi's overly intimate address aroused her suspicion,
she asked doubtfully:
"Mother, do you know Xia Xueyi?"
Out of a desire to protect Wen Qingqing,
Wen Yi did not tell her that her biological father was Xia Xueyi,
and the Five Elders of the Wen family would certainly not tell her the truth.
Therefore, Wen Qingqing had always been kept in the dark.
Wen Yi felt bitter in her heart,
but on the surface, she pretended not to care and said:
"I once had some acquaintance with Xia Xueyi, but after he became an enemy of the Wen family, we had no further contact."
Wen Yi's lie did not completely deceive Wen Qingqing,
but seeing that Wen Yi didn't want to say more,
Wen Qingqing had no choice.
She had to tell Wen Yi what had happened during the day.
Originally, Wen Yi was still focusing on the Jin Shejian's new owner, Yuan Chengzhi,
but Gu Hanyuan quickly stole the spotlight.
Not only did he easily teach Yuan Chengzhi a lesson,
but he also casually took in a pretty young girl.
Wen Yi's thoughts suddenly became complex,
and there was even a faint, unwilling-to-admit jealousy in her heart.
After finally suppressing this trace of jealousy,
and coaxing Wen Qingqing to sleep,
she couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
She had originally thought she would be more concerned about the whereabouts of the Jin Shejian and Xia Xueyi,
but she didn't expect that every time she closed her eyes, she would see the scenes from last night,
as well as the young girl Wen Qingqing mentioned who had been taken away by Gu Hanyuan.
Wen Yi bit her thin lip lightly,
and whispered to herself:
"This wretch, he is probably having a great time right now."
The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt.
However, at this moment,
a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind,
and a teasing voice sounded in her ear:
"If I want to have a great time, I should be looking for my Lady."
Wen Yi was about to exclaim in surprise,
but that familiar scent and those words
made her soften involuntarily. ===== CHAPTER 1190 =====
