Chapter 231. Do you choose to stand on my side?

Wen Li and Huo Yuanchen looked at each other for a while, and he did not take back what he had just said.

She retracted her gaze and said to him calmly, "I'm not here to find An Wen. I'm here to find you."

Huo Yuanchen frowned, as if he wanted to say something, but held back.

He paused for a moment before saying, "I'm a little busy right now, let's talk about your matters in a few days."

Wen Li had originally prepared to end things with him, and had tried to keep herself calm on the way here. But because of his words, she still felt endlessly aggrieved.

She couldn't help but say, "Huo Yuanchen, is it true that in your heart, An Wen's affairs, no matter how big or small, are always the most important. And my affairs are insignificant?"

Huo Yuanchen paused as he was about to leave, looked back at Wen Li, and said, "You go back first."

Wen Li didn't move, biting her lip tightly and staring at him.

But he didn't bother to pay attention to her and walked towards the examination room.

Wen Li stood there for a long while, still unable to suppress the grievance in her heart. How unappreciated was she that she didn't even have the chance to have a good word with him?

Didn't he let her go back?

She just refused.

She would wait here until he came back and make sure to make things clear to him.

She found a bench not far away and sat there, browsing her phone while waiting.

She didn't wait for Huo Yuanchen to come back, but waited for An Wen to appear first. She looked really unwell and her face was very pale. After just a few days of not seeing her, her cheeks were deeply sunken. When looking closely, one could see an abnormal bluish-gray color on her face.

An Wen was sitting in a wheelchair, pushed out by her mother. When leaving the building, her mother put a hat and scarf on An Wen. It was not winter yet, but she was afraid of the cold.

Wen Li couldn't help but be stunned.

An Wen and her daughter did not notice Wen Li. They walked straight to the examination room. When they were almost at the door, Huo Yuanchen came out, took the wheelchair from An Wen's mother, and pushed An Wen in for examination.

After a while, Huo Yuanchen and An Wen's mother came out first, leaving An Wen alone to be examined.

Wen Li heard An Wen's mother say to Huo Yuanchen worriedly, "She hasn't had an attack for so many years. I thought she was cured, but she has an attack again. My poor Wen Wen, why is she so miserable?"

Huo Yuanchen comforted her in a soft voice, "Don't worry, this disease is not incurable. Don't worry about the money, I will find the best expert to treat An Wen."

An Wen's mother wiped her tears and said, "You are so good to our family. What would happen to our family without you?"

Huo Yuanchen said, "Don't say that. An Ran is not in the country, so it's my duty to take care of An Wen."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw Wen Li. She was sitting not far from him, and she had obviously heard what he had just said. She tilted her head and smiled at him sarcastically.

He opened his mouth, choosing to look away and not look at her.

An Wen's mother said at this time, "An Ran told me that she shouldn't have insisted on going abroad. Otherwise, you and her would have been together a long time ago, and it wouldn't have been delayed until now. She regrets it very much. If she could choose again, she would definitely choose to be with you."

Although An Wen's mother spoke with a slight accent, she was still understandable. She was very excited and didn't care if there were people around. Her words drifted into Wen Li's ears with the wind.

Wen Li looked at Huo Yuanchen with cold eyes.

I saw his eyes move slightly, his lips opened and closed as he said, "Nothing can be delayed. She chose to do what she likes, and that's good."

Wen Li looked at him in silence for a while, and suddenly felt that it was meaningless for her to stay here any longer.

It was obvious that Huo Yuanchen wanted to be the son-in-law of the An family. If she pestered him and said something about breaking up with him, he and An Wen's mother would only regard her as a joke.

From the very beginning, she had no qualifications to compete with An Ran.

Wen Li didn't hesitate any longer, stood up and left.

She felt a familiar gaze on her, and she could guess it was Huo Yuanchen. But she was not going to look back.

She just kept walking and disappeared from his sight.

She thought that her relationship with Huo Yuanche would end in silence, but she didn't expect that she would receive a call from Huo Yuanchen in the afternoon.

She picked up the phone without saying anything.

I really don't know what to say.

The other side was silent for a while, and then asked her, "Didn't you have something to talk to me about? Why are you silent now?"

Wen Li was quiet for a while, then slowly uttered a few words, "It's all right now."

Huo Yuanchen seemed to sigh softly and asked her, "Is it because I asked you to go back first at the hospital this morning that you were angry? I was in a hurry to get An Wen a checkup and didn't have time to explain it to you clearly. I was wrong."

Wen Li just said "hmm" and said nothing.

Her heart sank, and there was no point in any further explanation at this moment.

Huo Yuanchen waited for a while, and seeing that she had no intention of speaking, he continued, "You can see that An Wen is very ill. I quarreled with you yesterday because of her illness. I was not in a good mood, and I was very tired after traveling a long way. It was always my fault."

Wen Li still didn't speak.

He asked her, "What exactly do you want to tell me today ?"

Wen Li sniffed and said calmly, "I wanted to say something, but after I heard what An Wen's mother said, I suddenly felt that there was no need to say anything to you. Huo Yuanchen, you never intended to be with me from the beginning. I was probably just a part of your game with An Ran. You kept me hanging, maybe because you were lonely, or maybe because you wanted to piss An Ran off. But I don't want to participate in your game now. Let's forget about what we talked about before."

Huo Yuanchen was silent for a moment, then said, "You are not part of the play, and An Ran and I are not playing any games. Wen Li, when I said I want to be with you, I meant it literally, without involving others."

Wen Li asked him, "Why? You have to let me know why you want to be with me, okay? After all, I can't tell from you that you like me at all."

Huo Yuanchen said nothing.

Wen Li couldn't see his expression through the phone.

She waited for a long time but got no response from him, then she realized that he was not going to explain.

Perhaps it was because what she said was right, he really didn't like her at all, so he had no way to explain it.

She sighed and said, "I am unsure and very scared."

Huo Yuanchen said calmly, "What difference does it make whether I like you or not? Even if I say I like you, will you believe it? The future is so long. If I like you now, will I not change my mind in the future?"

Wen Li thought, this is true, but no one's relationship is like walking on a tightrope, with the heart hanging in the air, unable to go up or down, feeling uncomfortable.

She finally asked, "If there is a conflict between An Wen and I in the future, will you stand on my side?"

Huo Yuanchen didn't say anything.

Wen Li hung up the phone.

She thought, what did he mean, and she understood.

As for what she meant, he should understand.
