The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 799 - 242: Just Help Me Emigrate Directly, I Want to Live in France in the Future
Xi Mohan might or might not help herself, Ning Wan naturally dared not be sure. If he didn’t help her, she wouldn’t feel at a loss either. It would be just the right thing to use this incident as a starting point to distance this man from herself.
What right does a man who is unwilling to help her have to continue lingering by her side?
If he does agree to cooperate with her... that would be splendid. Ning Wan was very much looking forward to Ning Yan’er experiencing that feeling of falling from heaven to hell.
It seemed that Ning Yan’er hadn’t expected Ning Wan to ask Xi Mohan directly, which was tantamount to saying her dignity... even her future was now in Xi Mohan’s hands.
If Xi Mohan chose to help herself, it would undoubtedly mean he didn’t take Ning Wan seriously. But now, seeing Xi Mohan and Ning Wan together, even noticing how Xi Mohan’s gaze lingered on Ning Wan, how could she possibly feel that Xi Mohan was definitely on her side?
Ning Wan was doing it intentionally...
Her gaze involuntarily fell on Xi Mohan, but she saw the handsome, indifferent man not glancing at herself at all, instead gazing steadily at Ning Wan across from her. Seeing this scene, Ning Yan’er felt a chill spreading from her feet throughout her body, to the point where she almost felt like she was about to collapse and couldn’t stand steady.
The hand by her side slowly clenched tight because of the cancellation of her engagement with Xi Mohan, something he personally made public on the cover of magazines. Now, she had lost all her dignity in An City, even though Xi Mohan had explained in the newspapers that it was his fault.
But she had been with him for so many years, and in a few more years, she would be thirty. She had given her best years to this man, but now she had ended up with the engagement canceled.
How could Ning Yan’er not hate, how could she not have grievances?
And she believed all this was Ning Wan’s fault – if it weren’t for Ning Wan, her Mo Han brother would be marrying her this year.
Naturally, Ning Wan had no idea what Ning Yan’er was thinking at the moment, nor did she imagine that this woman had pushed all the blame onto her. If she knew, she would have definitely given her a piece of her mind. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Ning Wan had known Xi Mohan many years earlier than Ning Yan’er, and even when Ning Yan’er came to know this man Xi Mohan, she hadn’t started to fancy him then. She had chased him for over a decade only to have Ning Yan’er barge in and completely snatch him away.
In terms of the time wasted on this man, she had wasted countless times more than Ning Yan’er. The most important thing was... she had even miscarried because of Xi Mohan.
For goodness’ sake, with all these things happening, she hadn’t hated the two of them; she was just initially very disappointed with Xi Mohan.
If Ning Wan knew, she would definitely think she was way too easygoing compared to Ning Yan’er.
Both women had their eyes fixed on Xi Mohan, yet the man still had an expressionless face, showing no emotions, not uttering a single word.
The onlookers outside were growing in number, with everyone curious about what was happening inside. The whispers were varying in volume, and all could be heard inside.
Ning Yan’er’s expression was extremely ugly; in fact, it had not been pleasant since the morning.
Only Ning Wan was still beaming with cheerful eyes, as if she was someone unaffected by the matter, an outsider with nothing to do with her. Compared to Ning Yan’er, she seemed much calmer.
"Yan’er." Under the gaze of the two women, Xi Mohan put one hand in his pocket, and the other by his side, looking indifferently towards Ning Yan’er who stood two or three steps away from him.
On hearing the man she liked calling her name just like before, Ning Yan’er’s heart involuntarily tightened. But when she looked up and saw his indifferent gaze, she subconsciously stepped back, the chill in her heart spreading throughout her body, making her subconsciously want to shake her head and explain something, yet unable to utter a word.
With an expressionless face, Xi Mohan faintly opened his mouth, "If it wasn’t meant for you, why cling to it so desperately? Regarding the shares, if it’s truly as Ning Wan has said, then give them back to her, otherwise, it’d be bad for everyone if this ends up at the police station..."
"Mo Han, so you don’t believe me?" Without a moment’s hesitation or consideration, Ning Yan’er stared at Xi Mohan in front of her and blurted out her question.
Xian Mohan slightly lowered his gaze, no longer looking at the woman before him. His mood was unreadable, as if an invisible net had enveloped him. After a long while, with no hint of emotion, he spoke, "I have never distrusted you before, but after my return to the country, you have done too many things. Many matters I would only know of because others told me. Now, I don’t even know if I should trust you anymore..."
A sense of panic spread in Ning Yan’er’s heart. Looking straight at Xi Mohan, she then pointed at Ning Wan and exclaimed, "Did that bitch Ning Wan tell you something about me?"
Xi Mohan raised his eyes to Ning Yan’er, who was already somewhat hysterical, slightly furrowing his eyebrows, "Yan’er, there is no need to drag everyone down with you. If you haven’t done anything, no one will frame you."
"It’s no use crying over spilt milk" – this saying is very reasonable. Why blame everything on others?
Ning Wan’s face maintained a coy and charming smile throughout, even when Ning Yan’er was pointing her finger at her and questioning that man, her complexion didn’t change at all.
Now, Ning Yan’er’s image was completely destroyed; not only had she revealed her true nature in front of others, but she had also shown another side of herself in front of Xi Mohan. The so-called ladylike image was just for show, and the most genuine side was used to deal with her.
The purpose of Ning Wan’s visit today was simply for these two reasons: first, to reveal Ning Yan’er’s true face and to deepen Xi Mohan’s disappointment in her.
The man she discarded, even if she no longer wanted him, she would ensure Ning Yan’er wouldn’t get him either, kicking her far away.
Wanting something badly yet being unable to obtain it can drive a person mad and reckless, such as how Ning Yan’er couldn’t get Xi Mohan now.
The engagement cancellation between Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er was like a time bomb planted beneath Ning Yan’er, ready to explode at any moment and expose her dark side.
And Ning Wan, she merely lit the fuse.
Secondly, Ning Wan did indeed come for her shares, which Ning Yan’er had indeed tricked her out of before.
Although not much, that small portion of shares in Ning Group could rake in a dividend that was enough to crush a crowd of people.
Upon hearing Xi Mohan’s words, Ning Yan’er’s face turned even paler, and for a moment, she couldn’t find the words to retort.
Ning Wan continued to smile lightly with a slight curl of her lips, having heard earlier that people were sent to call for Ning Yan’er’s father, her second uncle. She hadn’t planned on staying any longer, as the matter of shares could be dealt with slowly.
Taking a step forward, Ning Wan raised her chin slightly and spoke calmly to Ning Yan’er, who was already deeply stricken, "Eldest Lady Ning, I hope you can return my shares to me soon. Otherwise, I don’t mind seeing you in court."
After speaking, she turned her head to look at Xi Mohan who stood there, curled her lips again, and without any hint of attachment said, "I won’t disturb the two of you from catching up anymore. Mr. Xi, Eldest Lady Ning, goodbye!"
After finishing her words, she turned and walked straight towards the door, not pausing or looking back in the slightest.
Xi Mohan watched Ning Wan’s departing figure, frowning slightly, his expression far from pleasant. In fact, he had noticed earlier that Ning Wan was using him, yet he didn’t go against her wishes but had gone along with them, not expecting her to leave so decisively.
He was about to follow her in his suit when, just as he nearly stepped out of the office, a thud came from behind, followed by cries of shock from the people around.
"President Ning... President Ning has fainted..."
Xi Mohan’s footsteps halted, and he turned back only to see Ning Yan’er collapsed on the ground. He frowned momentarily, then without hesitating, he went back, bent down, scooped her up, and said to the people at the door, "Call 120..."
After leaving Ning Group, Ning Wan stood under the sun and slightly lifted her eyes to gaze at the scorching sky. The blinding sunlight shone directly into her eyes, making her squint involuntarily, then she raised her hand to shield her eyes from the glaring light, slowly spreading her fingers apart.
After standing for a moment, she curled her lips, then took out her phone, opened the contacts, and dialed a number at the top of the list. Soon she was heard saying, "Once I’ve resolved these matters, please help me with the immigration process; I want to live in France from now on..."
...
The next morning, Song Qiao struggled to rise from the bed, supporting her aching back, and looked at the spot beside her where she didn’t know how long since the man, Lu Jingchen, had left, cursing him in her mind.
Last night, who knows if he had taken something or what, he went on with her until late into the night, constantly coaxing her to call him husband; otherwise, he’d redouble his efforts, causing her throat to feel a bit sore now.
Seemingly so abstinent and self-disciplined, Song Qiao only had two words to describe him.
Beast.
Taking a moment on the bed, she finally threw back the covers and slowly got up, just about to wash up when her phone on the bedside table rang. Seeing the words ’Song Xi’ on the caller ID, Song Qiao was instantly stunned.
Only then did she belatedly recall what she had said to Song Xi at the company the other day, though it also made her feel frustrated.
Song Xi actually waited until now to call her...
