Chapter 989 - Chapter 989 Chapter 989 Youre Scolding Me

Chapter 989: Chapter 989: You’re Scolding Me Chapter 989: Chapter 989: You’re Scolding Me Wen Jingheng remembered that initially, he had simply said he agreed to break up without any expression, without any other reaction.

And just like that, his first relationship ended. Since then, he hadn’t been able to find a girl he liked, and with his busy work schedule, things had dragged on until now.

Until he met Hai Lan, and his heart quickly stirred…

When Wen Jingheng spoke of those past events, his tone was light and breezy.

It was as if breaking up with He Jiaying hadn’t affected him at all.

But Hai Lan knew, he was very angry and upset at the time, because she had been present…

“From that time on, I’ve had no contact with her, not even seeing her face in recent years. Now, I have no feelings for her whatsoever.” Wen Jingheng, worried that Hai Lan might be jealous, earnestly expressed his current thoughts.

Hai Lan’s gaze flickered, “So that was the mood you were in back then.”

Wen Jingheng hesitated, puzzled by her odd words.

Looking at him sheepishly, Hai Lan whispered, “I also have something to confess to you, and you mustn’t overthink it.”

“Confess what?” Wen Jingheng responded gravely, “Does it have to do with Wei Zhijie?”

“With you…”

“Me?” Wen Jingheng was surprised and even more confused by her words, “What exactly is it?”

Hai Lan didn’t answer, simply saying, “You were actually really angry when you saw her betrayal, right?”

“…” Wen Jingheng didn’t respond, which was as good as an affirmation.

He was indeed furious, he just never showed it in front of He Jiaying.

But why was Hai Lan so certain?

“You also lectured a girl at the time, and you scolded her fiercely. Do you still remember?”

Wen Jingheng’s eyes widened in disbelief. Staring at Hai Lan in astonishment, he vaguely remembered yelling at someone, but he couldn’t recall whom.

How could she know?!

Could it be…

Sure enough, under his skeptical gaze, Hai Lan nodded slightly, “Yes, the one you scolded was me.”

Wen Jingheng: “…”

Wen Jingheng was stunned for a good two seconds, finding it incredibly unbelievable.

“How could it be you? I remember I was scolding a waitress…”

“You’re the waitress! Which eye saw me as a waitress?” Hai Lan immediately burst out indignantly.

Her words jolted Wen Jingheng’s memory, and it all came flooding back clearly…

He had just discovered He Jiaying’s infidelity and broken up with her.

Then he went to another private room to handle things and happened to see a girl arguing with the police there.

She claimed she was not a waitress there, she had come to B City to shoot a film. Someone wanted to cast her, so her agent brought her to meet the client, but the client made unwanted advances. They caught her in the act, and she was mistakenly accused.

The police didn’t believe her though. There were only two men and one woman in that room, her story seemed improbable. No matter what she said, the police refused to let her go; they insisted on taking her to the station for an investigation.

Young and inexperienced Hai Lan was afraid to go to the station and started to argue with them.

Wen Jingheng just happened to walk into the room, heard the argument, his rage exploded, and then he lashed out at her with a barrage of harsh words.

Wen Jingheng had forgotten what he yelled at the time, but now he remembered everything clearly.

“You say you’re not a waitress? Look at the way you dress, so indecent! So young and not learning good things, choosing to walk such a path,
