Could it be that Mrs Ruan had never appeared in the Ruan Family before?
Or could it be that when the steward told her, Mrs Ruan had already left?
Did he say this because he didn't want to investigate and didn't want him to find Mrs Ruan?
But why?
Was this Mrs Ruan's order, or was it his own idea?
Unsettled, she vaguely felt that Mrs Ruan might have met with some kind of danger.
Ji Jingchen pulled her over and smoothed the wrinkles on Wen Tiantian's forehead.
"Don't worry, Mrs Ruan won't be in danger so easily. Xu Ping is completely loyal to Ruan Family, and would definitely not do anything that would harm Mrs Ruan and Ruan Family. "
"Maybe it's Mrs Ruan's orders. She'll appear when she wants to.
Remembering Wen Hongyu's words, he added, "For the next few days, you will stay at the castle. Don't come back yet."
Since Wen Hongyu told Ji Jingchen to take care of Wen Tiantian, he definitely had a reason.
However, Wen Tiantian shook her head.
"That won't do. If I were to leave now, no one would be able to make a decision on my Ruan Family."
She looked at the confused people in front of her.
"I'll stay here until the steward and Mrs Ruan return. If anything happens, I'll be able to deal with it."
Ji Jingchen looked at her and did not insist.
"Fine, but you have to promise me that you can tell me anything, that I will be there."
Wen Tiantian waited anxiously for news from Mrs Ruan and the butler.
However, before anyone could arrive, an unexpected guest had arrived.
Just as Wen Tiantian entered the Ruan Family, she saw someone anxiously walking out from it and calling out to her.
"Miss, someone is looking for Mr Wen."
Looking for Wen Hongyu at this time?
"Who is it?"
The servant shook his head.
"I'm not sure, but I've invited you to the living room. It's only been a few minutes."
"Got it."
Wen Tiantian walked in, but kept thinking.
There was no news of Mrs Ruan yet, but someone was waiting for Wen Hongyu.
Just who could it be?
She walked toward the living room. When she reached the door, she saw someone sitting on the wooden chair carved from pear blossom. The person was sitting there with his back straight as a bell.
He was about the same age as Wen Hongyu, and his short hair was slightly curled.
Hearing footsteps, he immediately turned his head over.
Wen Tiantian's sharp gaze stopped her footsteps for a second before she walked in.
Along the way, she sized up Wen Tiantian without restraint.
"You're Wen Tiantian?"
When the man spoke, his tone was tinged with provocation.
Wen Tiantian looked at him.
"May I ask who you are?"
That person didn't explain. Instead, he said arrogantly, "I'm looking for Wen Hongyu. He's still hiding inside. Is he not willing to come out?"
Hearing that, Wen Tiantian said coldly, "May I ask who you are? You don't even dare to tell me your name, your Ruan Family doesn't welcome such a person. "
Hearing this, that person was stunned for a moment before bursting out in laughter.
He turned to look at Wen Tiantian, as if he was finally looking at her.
"It's strange that you don't seem to be as weak as the information says."
He stared at Wen Tiantian and said, "I'm Wen Hongyu's brother. Tell him to come out and meet me."
Younger brother?
Wen Tiantian looked at him in surprise.
The man in front of her had curly hair which looked similar to Wen Hongyu's, and if you looked closely, his facial features looked alike.
Soon after, Wen Tiantian looked at the way he sat down, and knew with a single glance that he was a former soldier.
Anyone with Wen Family, regardless of gender, must join the army.
It was the same with Wen Hongyu.
She looked at the person who had suddenly appeared in front of her.
Back then, Wen Hongyu had severed her relationship with Wen Family, and she seemed to have been kicked out due to the failure of the inheritance right.
And there were only two men in total for Wen Family. One of them was Wen Hongyu, and the other was Wen Honghai, who was standing in front of him.
In the fight for the right to inherit the family inheritance, it could only happen between the two of them.
After some calculation, it seemed that the reason Wen Hongyu left the Wen Family was because of Wen Honghai.
The person in front of him was an enemy, not a friend.
Realizing this, Wen Tiantian's gaze towards him became more cautious.
"Mr Wen is no longer in Ruan Family, you're too late."
"He ran away?"
Wen Honghai chuckled. He turned his head and looked over with eyes full of ridicule.
Wen Tiantian frowned as she listened to what he had to say. She felt even more unhappy as she didn't have a good impression of the man in front of her.
Thinking back to their meeting with Wen Hongyu's father, he felt the same way.
Wen Hongyu seemed to be at odds with the rest of the family, and her personality was even more so at odds with theirs.
Just as he was thinking, he didn't expect Wen Honghai to say coldly: "I didn't expect him to be so timid. He didn't even dare to show his face when his woman was injured."
Upon hearing these words, Wen Tiantian immediately frowned and looked at him in surprise.
"What do you mean? "Who was injured?"
Wen Honghai sneered at her.
"You don't know? Looks like they still have a lot of things that they haven't told you. "
Wen Tiantian's heart sank as she pursed her lips to look at him.
Wen Honghai said slowly, "I only came to take a look because I heard that Mrs Ruan was injured."
He laughed and said, "Mrs Ruan should still be in the hospital, right? Her injuries were not light. She would not recover until two months later. "I just don't know which hospital she's recuperating at right now, and I would like you to take me to visit her yourself."
Wen Tiantian's body trembled as if she had been struck by lightning.
Mrs Ruan is injured? What had happened to her? Is it serious? " she asked anxiously.
That person looked at Wen Tiantian, and seeing that she really didn't know anything, he shook his head.
"It seems she really didn't tell you. Since you don't know, then there's no need for me to say anything more. "
With that, he stood up, his gaze turning cold.
"A wasted trip."
After saying that, Wen Honghai turned around and was about to leave.
"You're not allowed to leave!"
Wen Tiantian suddenly scolded him.
He quickly said to the bodyguard outside, "Stop him!"
A few bodyguards appeared from the shadows, blocking the door.
Wen Honghai stopped and looked at the person in front of him. He said, "You have quite the guts to block me?"
Wen Tiantian walked over, but was not threatened at all.
"How did you know Mrs Ruan was injured?" What did you do to her? "
Wen Honghai turned his head and smacked his lips, "Miss Wen, what you did is wrong. When did I say it was me who harmed Mrs Ruan? I just heard it from someone else and came here to take a look out of goodwill. "
Wen Tiantian looked directly at him, as if she wanted to see through his lies.
"I don't even know anything about Mrs Ruan's injury. She intentionally hid it from you. How could you have heard it from someone unrelated?"
"Ruan Family and Wen Family are the enmity between the generations, and now that Mrs Ruan is injured, Ruan Family comes from the back of your foot. Are you still saying that you have nothing to do with Mrs Ruan?"
Wen Tiantian walked up to him and spoke word by word with great authority.
"What did you do to her?"1
The smile on Wen Honghai's face faded a bit, and his eyes revealed disdain and anger.
"You can't slander others, hurting others is a small matter. If you don't do it properly, you'll be in for a lot of trouble."
Wen Tiantian frowned and looked at her without saying anything.
Wen Honghai walked outside.
Wen Tiantian snapped, "Don't let him out!"
Wen Honghai looked at the four to five bodyguards in front of him.
"You want to stop the people from Wen Family with just them? "He's really overestimating himself."
"As expected of a newborn calf, it's really not afraid of tigers."
