Lovely Substitute Bride

Yao Yan, who was still waiting for the Luan Family call, did not receive any news from her parents even after a long time.    

As they had agreed that day, they would arrive this afternoon at the latest.    

Yao Yan became increasingly flustered as she watched the sun gradually set and no one could be seen.    

Wen Tiantian, who was standing beside her, noticed that her expression was getting more and more anxious. She advised, "Don't worry. Maybe there's something on the way here that's delayed."    

Yao Yan smiled, but it didn't ease her nervous mood in the slightest.    

After a while, the phone in the room rang, startling her. She quickly jumped up to take a look.    

It really was the Ruan Family!    

Did something really happen on the way?    

Yao Yan finally felt relieved and answered the call. She asked, "Mom and Dad, when will you be there?"    

"We won't be here." A cold voice sounded from the other side.    

Yao Yan was at a loss as to what to do. Why did the voices of her parents on the other side seem so cold?    

"Why …"    

On the other side, his parents sounded impatient.    

"We thought it was something big, but it was just a few loud words. "There were some misunderstandings in the middle, Honghai has already admitted his wrongs to us, what do you think about staying outside and not going home?"    

Yao Yan didn't know how to react to the scolding.    

The other side of the phone continued: "The development of Ruan Family is not good right now, we are busy with the company's matters, what are you adding to the chaos? I'm giving you a limit. Hurry up and return to the Wen Family today, don't embarrass us outside! What did I tell you when I married you? "    

Never would he have thought that his parents would stand on Wen Honghai's side.    

As if she had been struck by lightning, Yao Yan's body froze on the spot, and her face turned deathly pale.    

Only then did she remember.    

Back then, it was precisely because he privately agreed to the marriage between his parents and Wen Family that he married her.    

Since young, her parents had always valued power and influence more than anyone else, so how could they personally come here to go against the Wen Family for her sake!    

The Yao family that she belonged to was merely a branch of the Wen Family to begin with. In their view, to be able to form an alliance with the Wen Family was entirely due to them taking advantage of the situation.    

How could she have forgotten that?    

Thinking of this, Yao Yan forced a smile.    

"Do you ignore me?"    

"Why don't we care about you? As long as you don't make us lose face from Ruan Family, our married daughter will throw out water! everything shall be done according to the Wen Family. "    

Yao Yan took a deep breath before finally nodding.    

"I know."    

After saying that, without waiting for the other party to speak, he directly hung up the phone.    

After a while, when her emotions had calmed down, she finally turned around and looked at Wen Tiantian.    

Even so, there were still tears in his eyes.    

Just now, Yao Yan's parents had scolded her loudly. Just now, Wen Tiantian, who was standing behind her, had heard it. She had already vaguely guessed it.    

"Madam Yao, don't worry. There will be a way to resolve this sooner or later."    

Yao Yan wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, her eyes shining with determination.    

"I want a divorce."    

Twenty odd years of submission had never caused her to gain any status in either her Wen Family or Wen Family, but instead made her become even more obedient.    

She had had enough!    

Wen Tiantian sighed in her heart as she suddenly thought of Mrs Ruan and Wen Honghai.    

If they hadn't resisted back then, would they have ended up like the current Yao Yan?    

Since Luan Family wouldn't help her now, Yao Yan clasped her hands together, not knowing who else to ask for.    

Although she had many friends at the Wen Family, those people had all intentionally gotten close to her because of her identity as the second wife of the Wen Family, so it was basically impossible for them to help her.    

He couldn't care less about Luan Zhi, how could he have time to busy himself with her matters?    

Unexpectedly, the person who could really help her was Wen Tiantian.    

However, exactly because she had lived in the Wen Family for so long, she knew even more clearly that she could not continue to stay here and harm Wen Tiantian and Ji Jingchen.    

"I... "I …"    

Wen Tiantian didn't know how to start, she could see the worry in her heart, so she said, "It's okay if you stay in the castle for the next few days."    

When Yao Yan heard this, she was pleasantly surprised.    

"But what about the party invitation that Wen Honghai mentioned before?"    

"It doesn't matter, even without you, he still wouldn't have really helped us get it. Furthermore, for the sake of handing over an invitation letter, Ji Jingchen disdained doing such a thing. "    

She smiled with determination in her eyes.    

Yao Yan was stunned for a moment. Although Wen Tiantian didn't say anything, she could clearly feel the sweetness between them from her every move.    

It made people envious.    

If she had fought back like Mrs Ruan, would she have gotten her happiness?    

But it was too late to think about it now.    

She secretly sighed and said, "Tiantian, please don't tell Minghao about this."    

Wen Tiantian nodded.    

"I know."    

After leaving the tower, Wen Tiantian's mind was preoccupied with many things.    

As soon as he entered the study, he saw Ji Jingchen.    

In order to prevent people from using Wen Family to break into the castle, he moved his office space from the company to the castle, working remotely.    

The whole study room was filled with messy information, enough to tell that he was busy with his work.    

Presumably, they were all here for the invitation letter for this Asian and Pacific reception.    

Seeing Ji Jingchen so busy, Wen Tiantian felt a little guilty. She stood at the door and didn't go over.    

Within a few seconds, Ji Jingchen seemed to have sensed her arrival and looked up at her.    

"What's wrong?"    

He had worked from morning until now, perhaps only late at night. His face was filled with fatigue.    

Wen Tiantian's heart ached.    

Ji Jingchen put down the documents in his hands and reached out his hand towards her.    

"Come here."    

Wen Tiantian finally got close and was pulled into Ji Jingchen's arms as soon as she touched his hand.    

"What's wrong?"    

Wen Tiantian shook her head. Mistress Yao's parents rejected her request and allowed her to return to the Wen Family. "    

Ji Jingchen's expression was calm, as if he had already predicted this outcome.    

The Luan Family was indeed protective, but it was only limited to the main clan of Luan Zhi's bloodline. Yao Yan was only a side branch of the clan, avoiding benefits was instinct, otherwise, she wouldn't have vied with the Wen Family for marriage.    

However, what Wen Tiantian didn't know was that although she grew up in an orphanage, she could still see the feeling of kinship from Mrs Ruan and Wen Honghai.    

Only now do I know that not all parents can really give up everything for their children.    

In comparison, Mrs Ruan and Wen Honghai had already done their best within their capabilities.    

After all, they also had the right to pursue happiness.    

"I told her to stay in the castle. Sorry, I didn't inform you."    

"Just because of this? You never need to apologize to me. "    

Ji Jingchen laughed, but did not care.
