Chapter 801: Chapter 799: People Who Don’t Know Might Think We Have Problems in Our Marriage

Because of the clothing issue, Shen Cheng and Shi Yu left first. Wen Wan, holding the will, found it improper to stay longer, so she personally went to the kitchen to make a bowl of longevity noodles for the old man. After instructing the butler, Uncle Zhang, to take it upstairs, she left.

The driver who usually transported the old man had been waiting outside the castle early on. Seeing Wen Wan come out of the main gate, he quickly approached her, "Madam, the old man instructed me to drive you home."

"No need, I can just take a taxi back." Wen Wan smiled and declined.

"Madam, this area is somewhat remote, it’s not easy to hail a taxi. Moreover, the old man has specifically ordered that I must take you back personally, otherwise he will blame me," the driver bowed slightly.

Wen Wan, always understanding and reasonable, knew that refusing his offer would put him in a difficult position, so she compromised: "Then I’ll trouble you."

"Madam, you are too polite; it’s my duty," the driver replied.

The driver circled to the side of the car and opened the rear door, instinctively placing his hand above the door to prevent Wen Wan from bumping her head as she got in.

Just as Wen Wan was about to enter the car, a deep voice came from the side: "I’ll take you home."

Hearing this voice, Wen Wan paused in her footsteps, then turned her head.

The man standing by the car, impeccably dressed in a suit, hardly showed any signs of aging despite being middle-aged, still as handsome as when he was young.

"No need, you should go ahead with your business."

Wen Wan smiled and refused the man’s offer, then turned around to get into the car.

"Wen Wan," Shi Yaoguang called out to her: "Since it’s on the way, let me take you back. Today, with the festivities, many guests will be drinking alcohol and some might get drunk. Drunk driving is strictly checked now, so nobody would dare to risk it. That’s why later, the driver will need to take them back home as well."

"It’s no problem, sir, a quick trip won’t take up much time. If you have matters to attend to, you go ahead, I will ensure Madam’s safe return home," said the driver.

Old Li, the driver who had been with the old man for eighteen years, knew a thing or two about Shi Yaoguang and Wen Wan’s past. That’s why he had spoken earlier to help Wen Wan out of an awkward situation.

Wen Wan, feeling somewhat embarrassed by that ’Wen Wan’, was left with a feeling of constriction in her heart, yet couldn’t pinpoint the cause of this discomfort.

"Madam, please get in the car."

Heeding the driver’s reminder, Wen Wan didn’t hesitate and promptly ducked into the car.

The driver also got in, started the engine, and then steadily drove off.

As the car gradually receded into the distance, Shi Yaoguang’s gaze became melancholic. The barrier of a car door and the growing distance further estranged the already distant pair.

"What’s the matter, couldn’t convince your sister to let you take her home, Yaoguang?"

Ye Jin had been standing behind him for quite some time, only approaching Shi Yaoguang after Wen Wan’s car had gone far away, linking her arm with his.

In fact, she had heard the entire conversation between Shi Yaoguang and Wen Wan as she had just come out of the castle.

Though discontented, she did not show it. Her heavily made-up face carried a coquettish smile, without a trace of anger.

Shi Yaoguang’s expression returned to normal, but he didn’t respond to Ye Jin’s words, merely saying, "I have a last-minute meeting, I need to get back to the company."

"Leaving so soon?" Ye Jin said, withdrawing her hand in displeasure, "When we came you had me come alone, and now you’re letting me go back alone... people who don’t know better might think there’s a problem with our marriage."
