Lord! Give up, my wife is a black and white vest

Chapter 230 A sudden confession

Lu Group Building.

General Manager's Office.

Lu Zicheng looked at the call from Wen Yan and stared at the notes quietly until the call was automatically hung up because no one answered.

But soon, the phone rang again, and it kept dialing over and over again. Lu Zicheng was a little absent-minded, and his fingers bent unconsciously, but he never reached out to pick up the phone.

He tried his best to restrain himself from recalling those moments with Wen Yan, but it was obviously not that easy to do.

I don’t know how long it took, but the person on the other end seemed to have finally given up, and the phone went completely silent. Looking at the silent phone, Lu Zicheng couldn’t tell whether he felt lost or relieved.

Lu Zicheng seemed absent-minded the entire afternoon.

It was getting dark.

Lu Zicheng went to the underground garage to pick up the car, but as soon as the car started, a figure appeared in front of the car.

Lu Zicheng was so frightened that his heart trembled and he quickly stepped on the brakes.

Looking at Wen Yan standing in front of the car, Lu Zicheng's mind, which had just calmed down, became a little confused again. His hands gripping the steering wheel tightened involuntarily, but he just watched and had no intention of getting out of the car.

Wen Yan limped, enduring the pain in her knees as she quickly walked to the driver's seat, knocking on the window and saying something anxiously.

But he was isolated outside by the car windows.

Lu Zicheng couldn't press the accelerator.

He didn't look at the anxious Wen Yan outside the window, but he couldn't help but listen to what Wen Yan was saying. But it seemed that even the car window was telling him not to listen, and he shouldn't listen.

Lu Zicheng finally made up his mind to drive away, but Wen Yan suddenly fell to the ground outside the car. Lu Zicheng saw her out of the corner of his eye and immediately turned around to look, but Wen Yan was no longer outside the car window.

When the car door opened, Wen Yan was seen fainted on the ground.

"Wen Yan?!"

Lu Zicheng quickly got out of the car to check on Wen Yan. When he touched her, he found that her whole body looked like it was on fire. The skin and cheeks exposed outside her clothes were abnormally red. When he touched her forehead, her body temperature was so high that it was hot to the touch.

In the hospital ward.

Lu Zicheng stood in front of the window, his handsome eyebrows slightly furrowed, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking about.

He suddenly realized something and turned around to see Wen Yan had woken up, sitting on the bed, looking at him quietly.

Lu Zicheng didn't know what she had been through during this period. Apart from that face, he could still recognize her as Wen Yan. There was no trace of Wen Yan in her. The only part of her face that could identify her identity was also haggard. Her eyes, which used to be bright, confident and resolute, were now dull and cautious. From head to toe, she gave people the impression of being weak and vulnerable, covered in wounds. Wounds...

"How did you get your knee injured?" Lu Zicheng couldn't help but ask.

The nurse who changed her hospital gown discovered the wound on her leg and was standing beside her when she applied medicine.

Wen Yan spoke slowly with a hoarse voice: "It shouldn't be disabled. As long as I can stay in the Wen family, I am willing to kneel for as long as it takes."

"kneel……?"

A look of surprise flashed across Lu Zicheng's face, followed by heartache and pity. How long did she have to kneel for her knees to be like that? Moreover, it rained heavily all day yesterday. No wonder she had a high fever and was so seriously ill.

"Wen Ming..."

Wen Ming is not a heartless person, how could he just ignore it.

As soon as he said that, Lu Zicheng stopped talking.

He shouldn't have asked so many questions.

"I have caused great harm to the Wen family. My father was able to keep me by his side and give me a chance to fulfill my filial duty. I am already very grateful." Wen Yan spoke weakly and with some effort. She was so weak that it seemed as if she would faint in the next second.

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Lu Zicheng, and something was surging in her eyes.

Lu Zicheng didn't dare to confirm. He avoided Wen Yan's gaze in a panic and said quickly, "Contact your family to come over."

Then he walked out the door.

"I don't have any family, they won't come."

Wen Yan spoke calmly, but every word was filled with sadness.

Lu Zicheng paused for a moment, then quickly recovered.

"Manager Lu, can you please give me a few minutes?"

Wen Yan said anxiously to Lu Zicheng who was about to go out.

Lu Zicheng turned around and saw Wen Yan anxiously pulling out the infusion needle on the back of her hand and trying to get out of bed.

"What are you doing?" Lu Zicheng hurried forward to stop him.

As soon as he walked over, his hand was grabbed by Wen Yan: "Don't leave, listen to me, okay?"

The back of her hand was covered in blood. While Lu Zicheng was pressing the button for her, he reached out to press the bell to call the nurse, but was stopped by Wen Yan.

"The reason why I became the eldest daughter of the Wen family is because I have a good fortune. My father is the only one in the entire Wen family who has some true feelings for me. I said before that I was doing well in the Wen family, but that was a lie to you and even more to myself." Wen Yan sat on the edge of the bed, grabbed Lu Zicheng's arm, and said with tears in her eyes.

"The eldest daughter of the Wen family sounds glamorous, but fake is fake after all. Everyone in the Wen family knows that after Wen Li returned to the Wen family, there was no place for me in the Wen family. I could only fight for what I wanted with all my might, which is why I was so eager for quick success. But please believe me, I really didn't mean to plagiarize Grey's work. I can swear to God that I really found the design in the trash can. I even asked Wen Li, and she denied it herself. If you don't believe me, you can ask her."

"I wanted to come to you the moment I got out of the police station yesterday, but my body wasn't strong enough. I passed out after kneeling for just a moment. I came to you today because I didn't want you to misunderstand me and leave a bad impression on me."

Lu Zicheng looked at Wen Yan, who was crying bitterly. He was silent for a long time and asked, "Have you ever used me?"

He stared at Wen Yan closely.

Wen Yan met his gaze frankly and shook her head. "I didn't, I didn't want to, and I wouldn't. I was scared at the time and saw you as a lifeline. I didn't know things would escalate to the point where they were out of control. The moment I knew Wen Li was Grey, I realized I had been tricked by her. It was my own stupidity, my incompetence, and my greed. My adoptive mother was right. Even if I lived in a wealthy family and wore the clothes of a young lady, it couldn't change the fact that I was born low and was inferior to others. I didn't dare to ask you for help at the time because I was afraid of implicating you - Zicheng, I like you."

Faced with Wen Yan's sudden confession, Lu Zicheng was stunned. The surging love in her eyes was now completely clear and there was no need for Lu Zicheng to confirm it.

"I liked you the first time I saw you. At that time, you followed my brother to the Wen family. I fell in love with you at first sight. I gave you a red envelope to attract your attention and leave an impression in your heart."

"What..." Lu Zicheng was completely stunned.

"At that time in the company garage, I lied to you when I said I had no impression of you. You don't know how happy I was when you recognized me. I was happy that you still remembered me, happy that you still remembered my name, and happy that I met you again so soon."

Wen Yan stared into Lu Zicheng's stunned eyes and said, "Becoming the chief designer isn't my real goal. You are. I chose to study jewelry design because of you, and I joined the Lu Group for you. Only by becoming the chief designer of Lu can I be closer to you."

"I had imagined that I would tell you all this when the day came when I could be worthy of you, but I never expected that I would end up saying these words in such an embarrassed manner..." Wen Yan curled her lips in a bitter smile, tears falling silently.

"I should have become better and the best I could be before appearing in front of you." She regretted, "But there won't be a chance anymore."

"These words have been buried in my heart for many years. If I don't say them today, I will never have the chance to say them again. Zicheng, thank you. Thank you for coming to the Wen family that day. Thank you for letting me see you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to hold on time and time again. I'm sorry that I affected your work."

Everything happened so suddenly that Lu Zicheng was a little confused. He never thought that the girl he loved had secretly liked him for so many years and had done so much for him...
