"I haven't been able to find you recently, so I had to come to Wen's house to have a look."

"Wait, don't leave yet. I'm here today...to ask you something."

"Wen Zhi, why do you dislike me so much? Did I inadvertently do something that made you unhappy? You can tell me and I will apologize."

Wen Zhi was about to leave, but was stopped by Shang Jing.

After not seeing him for a while, Shang Jing's face looked a little decadent, especially between his eyebrows, which always gave people an indescribable sadness.

Wen Zhi turned sideways and looked at Shang Jing: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Seeing that Wen Zhi was finally willing to pay attention to him, Shang Jing immediately cheered up: "I want to know, have you visited Linshi recently?"

Wen Zhi replied calmly: "Yes."

Shang Jing immediately asked: "Did my mother also go to Linshi?"

"You're asking this, so you've obviously confirmed that your mother went to Linshi with me, right?" Wen Zhi's eyes were full of alienation.

Before, she got close to Shang Jing in order to cater to Chong Wanying and pretend to be well-behaved to gain favor.

Even if she shouldn't hate the son of her mother-killing enemy, she should avoid contact with him again, not to mention that now she has broken up with Zhong Wanying.

"Yes, I do know that you went to Linshi with my mother." Shang Jing confessed directly: "But I want to know, why did my mother not come back when you came back?"

Wen Zhi frowned.

Shang Jing thought Wen Zhi was annoyed, so he immediately clarified his attitude: "I didn't mean to question you, because I can't contact my mother now, even..."

Wen Zhi's voice was a little softer: "Even what?"

Shang Jing's tone couldn't help but become irritable: "I can't even contact my dad."

Hearing this, Wen Zhi pursed his lips.

She had injured Zhong Wanying, but she had only strangled her neck. Her arms and legs were still intact, but the only cut was on her own hand.

What's more, if Chong Wanying is seriously injured, she won't rush back to Baishi on the same day.

At least Wen Zhi thinks that Zhong Wanying is fine now and has returned to the Baishi merchant.

But at this time, Shang Jing came to her to ask about his mother's whereabouts...

"Wen Zhi?"

Shang Jing noticed that Wen Zhi was distracted, so he waved his hand in front of her eyes.

Wen Zhi collected his thoughts and looked at him: "Sorry, I don't know either."

Shang Jing looked disappointed.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go in first." Wen Zhi didn't want to continue facing Shang Jing.

But the more she didn't want to face it, the more things backfired. Not far after she walked out, she heard Shang Jing behind her asking in a loud voice: "What on earth are you going to Linshi with my mother?"

Wen Zhi paused.

Shang Jing then asked, "Wen Zhi, are you hiding something from me? Do you know where they are?"

Wen Zhi closed his eyes: "I don't know what you are talking about."

After leaving these words, Wen Zhi hurried back to the house.

Shang Jing lowered his head and felt a little discouraged.

He came to Wen Zhi today to ask questions, but he didn't expect that when he saw Wen Zhi this time, she seemed to be a different person and was very cold to him.

Just as Shang Jing was about to leave, someone stopped him——

"Second Young Master Shang."

It was a woman's voice, but it sounded strange. Shang Jing turned around and saw an extremely beautiful woman walking towards him.

"You are..." Shang Jing recognized the other party: "Mrs. Wen?"

Wen Yiwan smiled unparalleledly. She walked up to Shang Jing and stretched out a hand towards him: "I would rather hear Mr. Shang call me Mrs. Mu."

Shang Jing handed over his hand to Wen Yiwan and shook it lightly, smiling lightly: "Mrs. Mu."

They both let go of their hands at the same time.

Wen Yiwan calmly looked Shang Jing up and down: "It's rare for Mr. Shang to come to visit, why don't you go in and sit down?"

"No." Shang Jing declined politely. He came to see Wen Zhi today. Since Wen Zhi didn't accept him, he had no choice but to come back next time. He didn't want to deal with this woman.

After the polite greetings, Shang Jing was ready to leave.

But Wen Yiwan insisted on keeping Shang Jing: "I just heard you asking Wen Zhi about your mother's whereabouts?"

Shang Jing froze.

Wen Yiwan smiled charmingly and walked up to Shang Jing: "Wen Zhi went to Linshi with your mother."

Shang Jing frowned: "Mrs. Mu knows?"

Of course Wen Yiwan didn't know, but she pretended to know in front of Shang Jing: "Of course."

Shang Jing suddenly looked at Wen Yiwan.

"Don't have high expectations of me. In fact, I don't know much." Wen Yiwan knew this lie well.

She passed by Shang Jing and said calmly: "Second Master Shang, actually, your mother...that is, Wanying and I are somewhat close friends. Not long ago we sat down to eat together. It’s time for dinner.”

Shang Jing soon believed this.

As far as he knew, Wen Zhi's mother had a very good relationship with his mother, and Wen Zhi's aunt probably had some interactions with his mother.

He remained silent and continued to listen to her.

"I did hear her mention Wanying's trip to Linshi. She said she was going to a famous temple in Linshi to offer incense and worship Buddha." Wen Yiwan made random nonsense, but Shang Jing didn't know anything about it anyway.

Shang Jing asked: "Jingci Temple?"

"Yeah, yes." Wen Yiwan nodded, "Our family Wen Zhi was taken by Wan Ying to stay at a merchant a while ago. They have a good relationship. It is normal for Wan Ying to ask Wen Zhi to go to Linshi this time."

Shang Jing understood: "So my mother took Wen Zhi to Linshi just to burn incense and worship Buddha at Jingci Temple?"

Wen Yiwan smiled and nodded.

But what Shang Jing didn't understand was: "But then my dad also went to Linshi, but I just couldn't contact them. Now Wen Zhi has come back first."

Wen Yiwan reacted with surprise: "Is that so?"

Shang Jing nodded.

"Then I don't know. After all, your father and I are not familiar with each other." Wen Yiwan knew what she wanted to know and no longer wanted to accompany him.

She raised her hand and moved her fingers: "Second Young Master Shang, please go slowly without seeing me off."

Shang Jing had no idea that what Wen Yiwan said to him just now was all made up casually.

He did believe it.

He also expressed his gratitude to Wen Yiwan before leaving.

After watching Shang Jing's car drive away, the smile on Wen Yiwan's face disappeared, and she immediately turned around and went into the house and went upstairs.

When she arrived at the door of Wen Zhi's room, she slapped the door hard——

"Wen Zhi, come out!"

"Wen Zhi! Open the door!"

After a while, Wen Zhi opened the door, and Wen Yiwan asked directly: "Did your dad go to Linshi?"

Wen Zhi didn't answer.

Wen Yiwan asked with all his strength, "Did Mu Yanzhou go to Linshi?"

Seeing Wen Yiwan's state, Wen Zhi guessed that she had gone to chat with Shang Jing just now after returning to the house.

As for what they talked about, Wen Yiwan's current state explained everything.

"Don't ask me. If I say I don't know, I just don't know." Wen Zhi's attitude was very cold.

Wen Yiwan knew it was too tough and immediately showed weakness. She stepped forward and grabbed Wen Zhi's hand: "Zhizhi, just tell me, okay, where is your father in Linshi?"

Wen Zhi frowned.

Because Wen Yiwan caught her injured hand.

She endured the pain and opened Wen Yiwan's hand bit by bit: "Let go of me first."

Her reaction to endure the pain was so obvious that Wen Yiwan saw the clues and immediately let go of her hand and asked, "What's wrong with your hand?" (End of Chapter)
