Chapter 281: 284 Fierce women fear the persistent man! They don’t fear the persistent man but fear the jackal and the wolf.

Tang Xiaohua gave him a glance and said expressionlessly, "You’ve mistaken me for someone else."

But after hearing this, Zhongli Wuzhi didn’t go straight into the room. He stared intently at her,

"Aren’t you Song Lili?"

"You’ve mistaken me for someone else. My surname is Tang. The person you seek is in the room."

Tang Xiaohua opened the door for Zhongli Wuzhi.

Zhongli Wuzhi took another couple of glances at her before finally entering the room. Tang Xiaohua closed the door and seeing Zhongli Wuzhi, she couldn’t help but think of Lu Xiaoer. Besides Wen Nian and Qu Yu, only Lu Xiaoer knew her in this world.

It had been quite a few days since her arrival in Anlin, yet she hadn’t found the time to contact Xiaoer, nor did she know how Xiaoer was doing recently. The last email was from over three months ago.

She was adamant about studying medicine, but the Lu family couple was opposed. They wanted her to work in a government agency under her father.

They were quite at odds over it, but as she saw it, no matter how much they argued now, Xiaoer would continue on her own path in the end.

She had always been so self-reliant, resolute, and independent.

...

"Ah Nian, lend me your private jet. I need to fly to Dongheng."

Zhongli Wuzhi got straight to the point as soon as he entered the room.

Wen Nian looked at him,

"Don’t you have a plane?"

"One is under maintenance, and my dad is using the other."

"When do you need it?"

Wen Nian wasn’t curious about what he needed it for, and simply asked about the timing.

"Now."

Wen Nian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhongli Wuzhi continued, "Little Ear has gone to the Dongheng Disaster Area to volunteer, and I’m in a real hurry. You almost got buried yesterday, and she ran over there first thing this morning!"

Wen Nian looked at Zhongli Wuzhi, unable to comprehend him,

"Why do you care so much about Lu Xiaoer if you spend all your time frolicking in the flowers?"

"Ah Nian, are you lending it to me or not?"

Wen Nian picked up the phone beside his bed, glanced at Zhongli Wuzhi, and made a phone call to Qu Yu, instructing him to make arrangements,

"You can just go."

Zhongli Wuzhi curved up his fox-like eyes, "Thanks!"

He stood up and took a closer look at Wen Nian, "That little guard standing at the door... isn’t that Song Lili?"

"Aren’t you in a hurry?"

"Being in a hurry doesn’t make a minute or two any less importan.t"

"Her name is Tang Xiaohua. My personal guard."

"Oh, she changed her name, not Song Lili anymore," Zhongli Wuzhi concluded from Wen Nian’s statement, then touched his chin and asked doubtfully, "But the person who just left your room... was it Bai Qiantan?"

Wen Nian’s amber eyes remained unmoving, as if waiting for however many more questions he had.

"Zi Zi, if she collided with Bai Qiantan, then you..."

Although Zhongli Wuzhi kept asking questions, it seemed like he didn’t need Wen Nian’s answers, as he was already generating the dialogue in his head.

"Looking at Xiao Lili’s pale face, turns out she was jealous."

Zhongli Wuzhi muttered to himself and then said, "Take care of yourself, I’m leaving."

"Wait!"

Wen Nian quickly stopped him. Zhongli Wuzhi’s mouth quirked up; this Wen Xiaonian really was... so easily hooked.

"What?"

"She... cough, cough..." Wen Nian turned away and cleared his throat, "Was she jealous?"

Upon hearing this, Zhongli Wuzhi’s fox-like eyes immediately curled up into an even bigger smile, "Ah Nian, it seems like things aren’t going smoothly for you."

Wen Nian didn’t show any expression, nor did he speak.

"What, haven’t you explained the matter from three years ago? Not even the Bai Qiantan issue?"

"I explained about three years ago, but she wouldn’t listen or forgive. As for Bai Qiantan, today was their first meeting. Even if I wanted to explain, she probably wouldn’t listen."

Wen Nian said helplessly.

Zhongli Wuzhi shook his head slightly as he looked at him, "Ah Nian, I’m not criticizing, but with your always-silent act and stubborn disposition, it’s no wonder nobody wants to listen."

Wen Nian frowned, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

"Chase her!"

"..."

"Since she wouldn’t listen to your explanation about the stuff from three years ago, and there’s no way to start with Bai Qiantan’s matter, you might as well just skip over that part!"

Wen Nian gave him a look, clearly unable to agree with his suggestion, "Skip it how? To be honest, I think some of the things she said are really odd... They make me feel very uncomfortable inside."

"That’s exactly it!"

Wen Nian looked at him speechlessly.

"Women are just such neurotic creatures, they speak and act with no logic, their minds are very peculiar."

"..."

"A thousand women have a thousand different peculiar ways, but there’s one thing they all have in common, which is that they can’t resist a good man."

"You’re really full of it."

Having heard Zhongli Wuzhi’s words, Wen Nian waved his hand dismissively, "You better just take off. You haven’t even managed to win over Lu Xiaoer in three years, so much for being a love expert."

Zhongli Wuzhi’s eyebrow slanted, "You don’t believe me?"

"The day you drag that marriage refuser, Lu Xiaoer, into the Civil Affairs Bureau, I’ll believe you."

Wen Nian sure knew how to hit where it hurts.

Zhongli Wuzhi’s sly fox eyes widened, his face full of doubt as he looked at Wen Nian, "Drag into the Civil Affairs Bureau? What good would that do?"

Wen Nian took a deep breath and picked up his phone to make another call,

"Qu Yu, there’s no need to borrow Zhongli’s plane—"

"Your Highness, I was wrong!"

Zhongli Wuzhi quickly stepped forward to cover Wen Nian’s hand, a smile spreading across his face, "I was wrong, Qu Yu, I’m off to the airport right now!"

He shouted into the air, then quietly hung up the phone for Wen Nian.

"Xiaonian, you really are... It was just a joke."

He reached out to ruffle Wen Nian’s hair the way he used to when they were younger, like a humorous big brother. However—

Wen Xiaonian was already thirty!

Zhongli Wuzhi leaned in close to his ear,

"Five words for you, ’A tenacious man can wear down a steely woman.’"

"..."

Wen Nian’s face was cold, obviously uninterested in his so-called "profound advice."

"Fear not the suitor, but beware the wolf."

Zhongli Wuzhi’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

Wen Nian shook his head, truly fed up with him.

Zhongli Wuzhi straightened out his clothes,

"She has unresolved issues, and so do you. You and she both need time."

"..."

Wen Nian actually agreed with this statement...

Maybe last night, he had just been too eager... Desperate for her to come back to his side, both in body and heart.

Unfortunately, Zhongli Wuzhi could only be serious for a moment,

"Xiaonian, remember, women need to be coaxed, pampered, pursued! She might not show jealousy on her face, but she’s definitely holding back inside. I believe you have the ability to make her let go."

He whispered and with a wink at Wen Nian, turned and left.

"..."

Wen Nian was speechless.

At the doorway, Tang Xiaohua was still standing straight as a rod. Zhongli Wuzhi greeted her with a beaming smile,

"I’m off to find my Little Ear, goodbye!"

Tang Xiaohua stiffened for a moment, really wanting to hold him back and ask about Lu Xiaoer’s situation... Never mind, she’d go find Lu Xiaoer herself later.

At six o’clock, the kitchen delivered dinner.

Qu Yu sent over some documents, and just as Tang Xiaohua was about to go to dinner, Qu Yu called her in. Wen Nian looked at her,

"Stay here and eat with me."

After delivering the documents, Qu Yu left.
