Chapter 549: Chapter 549

Lu Jingchen’s expression was extremely gloomy, his emotions seemed to be forcefully suppressed, slowly his facial expression turned very cold, but he couldn’t control the strength with which he was holding Ning Wan’s hand.

Ning Wan only felt severe pain in her arm as the man gripped it tightly, as if with a bit more force in the next second, her arm would break off.

Her face turned somewhat pale due to the pain in her arm, however, facing Lu Jingchen’s interrogation, she first sneered, then she said, "Qiaoqiao no longer has any relation with the Lu Family. She signed the divorce agreement, and now you’re just lacking a divorce certificate. With the agreement effective, you are merely ex-husband and ex-wife. Not to mention that I don’t know where Qiaoqiao is, even if I did know her whereabouts, I wouldn’t tell you."

She spoke every word clearly, even with a hint of mockery in her tone.

The streetlight shone directly on the man, however, it only vaguely allowed one to see his facial features, making it difficult to discern his emotions.

Lowering his gaze, Lu Jingchen looked at Ning Wan in front of him. It must be said that Ning Wan’s personality was also very different from Song Qiao’s, and Lu Jingchen was very clear that no matter how he pressured her, she would not tell him where Song Qiao was.

It was unclear how much time had passed, this situation continued for quite a while, and neither of them spoke, only the sound of car engines could be heard.

When Xi Mohan and Tan Shuya came out, they just saw Lu Jingchen grabbing Ning Wan’s arm, and Ning Wan’s complexion was somewhat pale, clearly enduring great pain.

Xi Mohan roughly understood the situation, he quickly walked over and forcefully grabbed Lu Jingchen’s arm, speaking sternly, "Jingchen, what are you doing? Ning Wan just came to bring your family’s child over, she doesn’t know where Song Qiao is."

Ning Wan is his woman, Song Qiao is Lu Jingchen’s woman, Xi Mohan sometimes felt their brotherly relationship was really... hard to describe properly.

Lu Jingchen’s lips were slightly pursed, his gaze fell on Xi Mohan, then back to Ning Wan, without immediately loosening his grip on her arm. After a long while, he lightly opened his lips again and asked, "Ning Wan, do you really not know where Song Qiao is?"

Pain in her arm made Ning Wan involuntarily bite her lip; hearing Lu Jingchen’s question, without thinking, she blurted out three words, "Don’t know."

After a pause, she continued, "Even if I did know, I still wouldn’t tell you where she is. The things that your Lu family did to her in the past, who ever considered her feelings? Besides, even if you know where she is, what would you do? Bring her back to An City? Lu Jingchen, don’t forget, your father never liked Song Qiao, nor did he allow Song Qiao to be the Lu Family’s young madam. Even if you find her and bring her back, you’d only bring her more harm. Also, Song Qiao doesn’t want to see you now; she’s finally left your world and does not wish for you to disturb her current life."

After speaking, she fell silent for a few seconds, her gaze vaguely landing on Tan Shuya standing not far away, feeling somewhat helpless and laughed, "Moreover, you have a new love now. At best, Song Qiao can only be considered your ex-wife or old love. Aren’t men always fond of the new over the old? I don’t ask for much, just hope you treat your son well."

Lu Jingchen had been silent all along, listening to her finished, his deep eyes always harbored a coldness, but after hearing Ning Wan’s words, he suddenly fell silent.

It was unknown how long that silence lasted, the man then let go of Ning Wan’s arm, shrugged off Xi Mohan’s hand, and then turned around to head straight back to his car. In no time, he started the car and left the scene.

Tan Shuya watched Lu Jingchen leave, initially wanting to chase after him, but in the end, she gave up.

Her gaze fell on Ning Wan, her eyes dark and unclear.

Xi Mohan watched Lu Jingchen’s car drive away, and immediately took out his phone to call Assistant Xue, telling him to go find Lu Jingchen, fearing that his current emotional state might lead to trouble. Get full chapters from 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

Having just put down the phone, he looked up and saw Ning Wan had already walked a considerable distance from him. His expression suddenly turned cold, and without a second thought, he chased after her and grabbed her arm, speaking coldly, "Where do you think you’re going? Walking back?

Ning Wan only felt her arm, which had just stopped hurting, suddenly sting with pain from Xi Mohan’s grip, causing her to involuntarily gasp in pain.

Xi Mohan, hearing her voice, instinctively let go of her arm.

Right from the start at the party, Ning Wan had been bottling up her anger, and now with Xi Mohan relentlessly approaching her, her anger found an outlet as she glared at the man in front of her and snapped, "Xi Mohan, what the hell is wrong with you? Can you please just stop following me? Do you know how annoying I find it to see you? I’ve stopped pestering you and bothering you, shouldn’t you be happy about that?"

As Ning Wan spoke, she couldn’t help but feel her eyes well up with tears, and for a moment, she felt utterly helpless. That feeling of grievance was pervasive, making her want to burst into tears.

She had loved this man for over a decade, virtually wasting a big part of her youth on him, but all she got in return was the pain he inflicted on her.

Back then, she was battered and bruised, yet she played the fool, constantly throwing herself at him, allowing him to hurt her without reservation.

By the time she came to her senses and decided to give up on this love that she had held on to for so many years, this man was shamelessly getting close to her again.

She was utterly sick of it, wishing she could just vanish from this world.

Xi Mohan, hearing Ning Wan’s words, pursed his lips slightly, his face as cold and indifferent as ever, completely impervious.

After Ning Wan finished speaking, he finally said indifferently, "I’ll take you home."

Ning Wan, seeing his unchanging expression, even in the face of her harsh words, suddenly felt a wave of powerlessness wash over her.
