Chapter 175. Don’t Dream of What You Can’t Get

In the photo, Cheng Yang was wearing a colorful short-sleeved shirt and had a small tattoo on one of his arms. Wen Li had taken many photos of Cheng Yang, and had seen him shirtless. The tattoo on his arm had been washed off, but if you looked closely, you could vaguely make out the shape of the tattoo.

She didn't take the photo seriously.

She was not an innocent girl who naively believed that men were always the same. On the first day she met Cheng Yang, she knew that a man with a background like his could not have only a sunny and cheerful side.

As long as Cheng Yang is truly kind to her, she doesn't mind what his past is like.

When Cheng Yang called her during a break in filming in the evening, she answered the phone and asked him in a normal tone how he was doing on the filming and told him to take care of himself, just like usual.

But Cheng Yang was still not satisfied. He still felt that Wen Li was not enthusiastic enough towards him. It was not cold either, but she did not look like a couple in love. He had seen his friends in love, and they wanted to stick together all the time, and their eyes could draw tears when they looked at each other.

Wen Li didn't. She was very gentle and warm to him, but also polite.

He didn't want Wen Li's politeness. He wanted her, both physically and emotionally.

A man's possessiveness knows no age limit. Now he just wants to monopolize Wen Li and not let anyone else even look at her.

Especially when his assistant said that he failed to pick up Wen Li at the airport, he was worried and could not get his mind settled. He was afraid that during the time he was filming, some shameless people would take advantage of the situation and sneak in.

Cheng Yang was absent-minded in this drama. However, it was his first time filming and he had no experience. The role the company had arranged for him was not an important one, and the crew did not have high expectations for him, so they did not say anything.

When the scene came to a temporary end, Cheng Yang left the crew and returned to Hai City. Before returning, he did not tell Wen Li that he was planning to give her a surprise.

When Wen Li was taking photos of the last group of guests scheduled for the day, she received a message from Cheng Yang saying that he had asked a friend to bring her a gift and asked her to pick it up, with a detailed address attached.

She casually mentioned this to Li Hong and said, "I have something to do and need to leave first. Can you please tidy up the studio?"

Li Hong agreed without hesitation. She quickly finished the work and returned to school. It was still early, so she went to the teaching and research office, intending to seize the time to finish writing the thesis proposal.

Before leaving get off work, Huo Yuanchen went to the teaching and research office for a walk. Seeing Li Hong there, he casually asked, "Why did you come back so early today? Is there something wrong with Wen Li?"

Li Hong explained, "Someone sent a gift to Sister Wen Li, and she went to pick it up, so I came back first."

Huo Yuanchen nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and left after discussing a few issues in the proposal report with Li Hong.

Wen Li found out that Cheng Yang had asked her to go to a high-end club when she arrived. She called Cheng Yang's friend and asked him to bring her things out. But he gave her a private room number and asked her to come up and get it herself.

She entered the club and as soon as she opened the door of the private room, she saw many men and women sitting inside. Lin Ruoyuan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was also among them. She was surrounded by a group of followers like a queen, and she was raising her chin and directing others to serve fruit.

Wen Li wanted to leave, but Cheng Yang's friend came over to pull her back, "Wen Li, right? Cheng Yang's gift for you is in there, go get it yourself."

Wen Li had no choice but to go in. When she passed by Lin Ruoyuan, she smiled at her and took the initiative to greet her, "Long time no see."

Wen Li nodded, as if he had finished socializing with her, and was only thinking about taking the things Cheng Yang had asked him to do and leaving.

Lin Ruoyuan suddenly raised her voice and said to her, "I heard that you followed Huo Yuanchen, and then broke up. Why are you always so unrealistic? Do you think you can dream of the Huo family? Huo Yuanchen doesn't have a good temper like Brother Jinnian. He slept with you just for fun. Don't take yourself too seriously."

Wen Li didn't want to care at first, but since Lin Ruoyuan said so, if she remained indifferent, people would misunderstand her as a soft persimmon that anyone could step on.

She paused, turned around, glanced at Lin Ruoyuan nonchalantly, and asked innocently, "I heard that you went abroad to study a while ago. Is it fun abroad?"

Lin Ruoyuan's face changed. She was forced to go abroad by Meng Jinnian, who took care of her face and only said in the circle that he was sending her to study abroad.

But when Wen Li asked this, it was hard for her not to think that Meng Jinnian told the truth just to gain Wen Li's favor.

She said with an unpleasant expression, "You are already a woman that Huo Yuanchen is tired of playing with. Do you think Brother Jinnian still wants you?"

Wen Li smiled and said, "Why are you asking me about this? Otherwise, you can ask Meng Jinnian."

Lin Ruoyuan's face became even uglier. The news that Meng Jinnian sent a cart of roses to Wen Li had spread all over the circle.

Wen Li was about to leave when the door of the box opened. Meng Jinnian came in from outside with a glass of freshly squeezed juice in his hand and walked towards Lin Ruoyuan.

Lin Ruoyuan stood up and jumped towards him step by step.

Only then did Wen Li notice that Lin Ruoyuan had a plaster cast on her leg. No wonder she had been sitting there while arguing with her just now.

She remembered that she had met Meng Jinnian in the hospital not long ago, and she knew the answer to the question of who the woman he was supporting was.

Meng Jinnian pushed Lin Ruoyuan back onto the sofa and said, "Don't move. You said you broke your leg while climbing a rock."

Lin Ruoyuan said in a coquettish tone, "I'm alone in a foreign country, with no one to take care of me or accompany me. I can only go rock climbing on weekends to kill time. If I had someone to accompany me, I would definitely not do such a dangerous thing."

Meng Jinnian sighed, somewhat dotingly, and said, "Come back and heal your wounds first. But you can't drink. I'm afraid you'll have to watch today's game."

Lin Ruoyuan said coquettishly, "Then run a few more times and get me some juice."

Meng Jinnian was about to agree, but when he looked up, he found that Wen Li was also in the box.

He froze for a long time before he spoke mechanically, "Wen Li, why are you here?"

Wen Li said without any emotion, "I'll come get my things and leave right away."

The box room was large, and there was a compartment for people to rest. Cheng Yang's friend said that the gift Cheng Yang prepared for her was placed in the compartment. She didn't want to stay too long and wanted to leave early.

But before she could enter the compartment, Meng Jinnian had already chased after her, grabbed her wrist with one hand, and said anxiously, "I didn't know you would come. If I had known..."

Wen Li pulled her hand out of his palm with a cold expression and interrupted him, "If you knew, you wouldn't have been so attentive to Lin Ruoyuan? It's okay, Meng Jinnian, as long as you don't bother me, I think you're a good person."
