Chapter 15: The Chocolates That She Gifted
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The previous version of Wen Ruan was indeed spoiled, superficial and complacent. She really couldn’t match up to Ye Wanwan in any aspect.
However, this wasn’t taught to her by Old Mrs. Wen. The old lady had alway emphasized on a good, enriching education for girls and not an indulgent one.
Wen Ruan’s personality was the result of Liu Shuying’s constant appeasement.
Old Mrs. Wen patted Wen Ruan’s head as she looked at her lovingly. “Little precious, tell us. Why didn’t you let Ye Wanwan come back in the same car as you?”
Wen Ruan didn’t throw a tantrum like how she used to, when she was maligned like the past. She stayed nestled in Old Mrs. Wen’s arms obediently. She bit on her lips and hesitated, looking at Ye Wanwan with mixed emotions on her face. “I don’t know whether I should say it or not?”
Ye Wanwan’s eyebrows twitched impatiently. “Ruanruan, why are you pretending to be aggrieved? I called you after you told Uncle Zhong to drive away? Post that, I called Uncle Zhong since you had switched off your cell phone. You hung up without saying anything!”
“We have always had a great relationship. I don’t know how I made you angry?” Ye Wanwan lowered her head and tears trickled out of her eyes.
Liu Shuying pretended to glare at Ye Wanwan angrily. “You only know how to cry when you encounter problems. Ruanruan is Old Madam’s little precious. You are supposed to take care of her emotions. You were wrong when you didn’t behave accordingly!”
Tsk tsk. Listen to Liu Shuying. How eloquent was she!
Wen Jinzhang, of course, knew how spoiled Wen Ruan was. The servants in the house were terrified of her and always had to serve her carefully.
“Wanwan, Uncle hasn’t let you stay here as a servant. I have said earlier also, you and Ruanruan are both Wen Family’s daughters.”
“Uncle, I am not worth it…”
Before Ye Wanwan could finish speaking, Wen Ruan cried loudly. “Dad, although I am unruly to others, I have never treated Auntie and Wanwan like outsiders!”
“I didn’t want to say the truth all this while because I wanted to protect Sister Wanwan. After all, we shouldn’t be dating since we are still seniors in high school.”
Old Mrs. Wen took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears away for Wen Ruan. “Precious, stop crying.”
Wen Ruan was dainty and adorable and looked even more heart wrenching than Ye Wanwan when she cried. Wen Jinzhang’s expression became less severe when he looked at Wen Ruan. “What dating?”
“I saw Sister Wanwan giving a box of chocolate to a classmate of mine after school. It was the ‘Only Love Chocolate’ which costs over 10,000 bucks a box. If they were just normal schoolmates, Sister Wanwan wouldn’t have spent so much. I didn’t want to interrupt them so I asked Uncle Zhong to return first.”
“Dad, nobody has ever gifted me such expensive chocolates. I guess it must be someone she likes very much.”
Apart from Wen Ruan, the facial expressions of others in the living room changed drastically.
Liu Shuying glanced at Ye Wanwan’s lowered head before looking at Wen Jinzhang’s frowning face. He obviously didn’t approve of Ye Wanwan dating at such a young age.
She quickly thought about the problem and said, “So that was what happened. Jinzhang, It’s me who asked my friend to bring the chocolate box back from overseas and have Wanwan pass it to that student. Didn’t I tell you a while back that Wanwan was harassed by some punks when she was named the school belle? That schoolmate had helped her.”
Wen Jinzhang nodded. “Yes, you did.”
Wanwan felt her heart clench up. Huo Dog helped Ye Wanwan chase away the punks?
Suppressing the displeasure in her heart, Wen Ruan blinked her pure doe-eyes. “But auntie, there are eleven pieces of chocolates in ‘Only Love Chocolate’ which signifies the one true love between lovers!”
