Becoming the Villain's Discarded Wife
Chapter 146 Book

Chapter 146: Chapter 146 Book

Shen Wenchen understood what was on Nanzhi’s mind, and at this moment, he merely held his silence.

Zhiyu sat in between both of them, his hands holding theirs, evidently satisfied.

"Mother, where are we?"

The child’s voice was soft and full of curiosity.

Staring at the playground before her, Nanzhi faltered.

Where is this place?

Is it my hometown?

But my family isn’t here, grandmother has already left me, and as for friends...

Perhaps to them, I still am just an acquaintance.

And what about the characters in the book?

In it, there’s Zhiyu, Dad and Mom, my brothers and sisters-in-law and their children, and also...Miaomiao.

Nanzhi fell into silence for a moment, then remembering something, she reached into her pocket, only to realize that she was only in her nightgown and had not brought her phone.

"Do you need a phone?"

Looking at her, Shen Wenchen had an understanding of her needs, and handed her his own phone.

Nanzhi was startled as she looked at the black phone handed to her, she nodded and simply said ’thank you’, without any pretense.

Shen Wenchen’s phone was practically empty except for built-in software and a couple of games, its home screen was so clean that it left Nanzhi dumbfounded.

In the end, Nanzhi could only open the web browser and search for basic information about the plot of that novel.

If Shen Wenchen and Zhiyu are real, then what about that book?

When she entered the name of the novel, only a few highlighted windows appeared. Her attempts to open them were met with messages saying that access to the webpage was prohibited.

This occurred several times, and Nanzhi, unwilling to give up, continued to search, only to find the following websites were filled with irrelevant material.

With Zhiyu in his arms, Shen Wenchen watched Nanzhi fiddling with the phone, he consoled Zhiyu in a low voice.

"Zhiyu, behave well. Your mother is busy, Dad will be with you."

Though the little guy preferred to cling to his mother, it had been a long time since he last saw his father, so he willingly engaged in conversation with Shen Wenchen.

"Zhiyu, can you tell us where Grandpa and the others are?"

Shen Wenchen held high concerns for his in-law’s whereabouts. If he knew their location, he could rush over to them.

"Don’t know."

The little guy shook his head.

Looking at Zhiyu’s bewildered expression, Shen Wenchen realized that Zhiyu, being only three years old, wouldn’t understand these situations.

Has he been acting foolishly?

"After we arrived in Lin County, we lost track of brother and the others due to the flood."

Saying that, Nanzhi handed the phone back to Shen Wenchen.

She was unable to find any useful information.

Shen Wenchen was startled, a flood?

If they had lost contact with his father-in-law and mother-in-law, what might have Nannan and Zhiyu been through?

Considering the potential circumstances, Shen Wenchen’s lips pressed into a thin line.

Has he been too careless?

The sun was gradually disappearing behind the tall buildings, turning the blue sky a brilliant crimson hue.

Right now, Zhiyu only heard someone calling out his name.

He suddenly remembered Brother River Clam saying that they should return when the sun goes down. The little boy hastily tugged Nanzhi’s hand: "Mother, Mother, let’s go home!"

The child’s face was filled with urgency, but Nanzhi was shockingly frozen, as if she had lost her soul.

"Mother, Mother!"

Nanzhi’s eyes were vacant, as she blankly gazed at the reddening sky.

As he got no response, Zhiyu began to worry. He was about to tug Nanzhi when he heard the shouting next to his ear become much louder.

...

The young man in the carriage was truly anxious at this moment. He had called out several times, but there was no response from Zhiyu, which made him feel uneasy.

The little guy might have forgotten what he once said due to his young age. If he doesn’t come back, it’ll truly be over...

The teenager was circling in distress, and now Shen Miaomiao too began to cry.

The little girl’s sobbing sound, between choking and sniffling, drilled into the boy’s ears, aggravating his irritation. But it was a mess he had created, he couldn’t ask the victim to keep their mouth shut.

"Zhiyu..."

With the sun ready to fully set, Zhiyu still did not respond.

He wants his mom!

"Zhiyu, come back quickly! Or you’ll disappear! Obey!"

Nanzhi’s previously lifeless eyes regained a moment of clarity.

She heard someone calling for Zhiyu. Looking at the red-eyed little one, Nanzhi managed a smile and said, "Good boy Zhiyu, go back quickly, and your mom will follow."

The little one sniffled and looked up through teary eyes to ask, "Really?"

Nanzhi nodded seriously, "Your mom is telling the truth, good boy Zhiyu."

With the promise secured, Zhiyu replied. Following was a bright white light, and the little one was gone.

Tears trickled down. Just as Nanzhi raised her hand to wipe them away, a well-defined hand extended towards her.

"Are you willing to go back?"

Shen Wenchen lowered his head slightly, his lashes masking his eyes, making his emotions unreadable.

"Hmm."

Nanzhi didn’t say much more. Even for Zhiyu, she had to go back.

"Okay."

Without exchanging further words, Nanzhi stood up, straightened her nightgown, said goodbye to Shen Wenchen, and left.

She still didn’t know how she could go back, the same way she didn’t know how she came.

Both times it happened in her sleep. Could it be that every time she fell asleep, she’d slip into the book again?

Watching the shrinking figure of the young girl, Shen Wenchen tightened his grip on his phone.

Is she Nannan?

He opened the browser on his phone and stared at the search history. Seeing the words, Shen Wenchen was momentarily stunned.

This should be a novel, correct?

Several consecutive entries were related to it, making Shen Wenchen involuntarily frown.

Finding it odd subconsciously, he searched it up only to find no results. In the end, he just put his phone away and returned to his dorm.

The fourth roommate thought it was strange that only one person returned when two had left and asked, "Third Brother, where’s your son?"

"He went back."

"He went back?" The fourth was taken aback. Where has he gone back to?

"Can you look this up for me?" Shen Wenchen rubbed his forehead and handed over the phone, pointing at the search entries in the browser.

"Seriously, Third Brother, you’re into this type of novel too?"

Looking at the search term, the fourth clicked his tongue twice, yet still started searching on his computer.

Seeing the red markers, the fourth laughed mockingly. A drama-filled novel like this would pose no challenge to him!

Rolling up his nonexistent sleeves, the fourth continued to stare at the screen. It wasn’t until half an hour later that he finally let out a long sigh of relief and pointed at the screen, "Third Brother, I found it. It’s a novel that was released two years ago. It was only available online for seven days, but it had quite a few readers. I don’t know why it was taken down on the eighth day though."

Hearing that he found it, Shen Wenchen’s face changed and he leaned in to take a look at the screen.

Meanwhile, the fourth was contentedly eating the takeout food Shen Wenchen ordered for him earlier. He had expended too much energy!

After flipping through a few pages, Shen Wenchen’s face went pale, and his eyebrows knitted together.

Why does this novel seem so familiar?

Reading the line in the book that said, "Upon seeing the girl standing at the bridgehead, Shen Wenchen was slightly taken aback, a strange affection emerging in his heart..."

Shen Wenchen’s face darkened completely.

Yan City, Su Tao, Shen Wenchen...

Upon realizing something, Shen Wenchen, his face pale, continued to flip through the novel.

Not until he read the line, "A thought crossed Shen Wenchen’s mind. Fearing that Su Tao would feel wronged, he picked up a pen and wrote a letter of divorce..."

He felt his heart sink completely...
