Mr. and Mrs. Wen were speechless.
Previously, Old Master Wen said that Jiang Lingâerâs character was bad and that she was an idiot. And now he was defending her???
Old Master Wen continued, âDonât listen to what others say. Discover the truth for yourself. This girl Jiang Lingâer is not simple.â
âDad, we understand what youâre saying.â
Old Master Wen concluded, âAlright, we just need to wait and see now. I believe Jiang Lingâer is a capable girl.â
Thirty minutes later, Jiang Lingâer came out with a bowl of porridge and seafood pancakes.
Wen Mo was surprised when he saw the food. He had thought Jiang Lingâer was exaggerating about her cooking skills, but the dishes looked and smelled delicious.
Wen Mo commented, âIt smells amazing.â
Jiang Lingâer replied, âThereâs more in the kitchen.â
Wen Mo wasted no time and rushed to the kitchen.
Seeing her sonâs excitement, Mr. and Mrs. Wen exchanged glances. What was all the fuss about? It was just some simple food.
Jiang Lingâer arrived at Wen Nuanâs room and knocked gently on the door. Before Wen Nuan could respond, she entered the room.
Wen Nuan coldly said, âI told you not to come in.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and replied, âNuannuan, itâs me.â
Wen Nuan immediately sat up from the bed, turned on the bedside lamp, and asked, âLingâer, how did you get in here?â
Seeing Wen Nuan looking disheveled and frail, Jiang Lingâer felt a deep sense of pity. The pampered life wasnât as easy as it seemed, and facing adversity, Wen Nuan had crumbled.
Setting the food down, Jiang Lingâer walked over to the bed and took Wen Nuanâs hand.
She comforted her, âIn the morning, when I didnât see you at school, I was really worried. Before the morning self-study, your Grandpa came to find me and told me about your situation. I couldnât focus on my lessons after that.â
Wen Nuanâs eyes welled up with tears, and she said helplessly, âI didnât want this either, but I donât know why 1 started coughing up blood. I was really scared at that time, and Iâve never felt so wronged. How can they deprive me of my freedom to make friends and force me to marry someone?â
Jiang Lingâer consoled her, âNuannuan, I understand that you feel itâs unfair, but please donât resort to a hunger strike. Itâs not the solution.â
Wen Nuan replied, âI donât even want to eat, and Iâm not hungry at all. My body is strong, and I donât feel very weak right now.â
Jiang Lingâer said gently, âNuannuan, remember, people need food to survive. You must eat. Look, I made all these for you. Now, go freshen up, and you can eat afterward.â
Wen Nuan agreed, âAlright, since you personally made it, I must give you face.â
Saying that, she got up and went to the bathroom.
After ten minutes, Wen Nuan finished freshening up and returned.
Jiang Lingâer pointed to the food and said, âTry it and see if it suits your taste.â
Wen Nuan said, âLingâer, youâre so nice to me. Thank you for your hard work.â
Wen Nuan took a sip of the porridge and instantly felt happier.
She smiled and said, âLingâer, this porridge is so delicious.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and said, âIf you like it, eat more. But it might be because you were really hungry. By the way, this morning, I had a brief discussion with Old Master Wen about your situation with the Fang family. Your Grandpa wonât pressure you for the time being.â
Wen Nuan asked, âHuh? The old stubborn man is willing to compromise?â
While enjoying the delicious seafood pancakes, Wen Nuan exclaimed, âLingâer, these are super delicious too!â
Jiang Lingâer said, âIf he hadnât been willing to compromise, I wouldnât have been able to come see you.â
Wen Nuan curiously inquired, âHow did you make him compromise? He has such a temper. Itâs hard to believe.â
Jiang Lingâer shook her head and replied, âNuannuan, itâs not that I made him compromise, itâs because of you. If it werenât for you, your Grandpa would never have approached me. I wouldnât have had the opportunity to talk to him for so long, would I?â
Wen Nuan self-deprecatingly said, âIf I hadnât coughed up blood, the old stubborn man would have arranged for me to transfer schools. I was so furious. Lingâer, you havenât told me yet, what did you say to him?â
Jiang Lingâer was quite surprised. Old Master Wen disliked her so much that he had even considered transferring Wen Nuan to another school?
She explained, âI asked Old Master Wen if he knew that the young man from the Fang family had a child with another woman, and Old Master Wen said he knew about it a long time ago. He also explained that the young man from the Fang family had been deceived and told me that he was a responsible and good person.â
Jiang Lingâer paused for a moment and continued, âI got angry at that point and asked him if the other womanâs child was healthy, would the young man from the Fang family have married her? What would happen to you then? Your grandpa fell silent instantly..â
