Chapter 252. Disappointment

Wen Li nodded without hesitation.

He even said, "Yes, I was the one who hit her. She hit me, and I fought back. Even if it goes to the police station, it would at most be considered a fight, and both would get fifty lashes. Professor Huo, don't act like a messenger of justice and stand up for others."

Huo Yuanchen frowned.

An Wen's mother immediately wiped her tears and said, "Yuanchen, Auntie is old, how could she be so impulsive and hit someone? It was obviously her who hit me, and I am so old that I couldn't dodge it even if I wanted to."

Wen Li had a smile on his face and waited calmly for her to finish.

Then, looking at Huo Yuanchen, he asked him, "Professor Huo, do you have anything to ask me?"

Huo Yuanchen rubbed his brows, his tone somewhat helpless, "You speak first."

Although Wen Li was not someone who could take a loss, she would not hit someone for no reason. Since she was so sure, she was definitely not the one who was wrong.

Wen Li forwarded the surveillance video that Li Hong sent her to Huo Yuanchen.

Huo Yuanchen had a habit of always setting his phone to vibrate mode during the day. He didn't turn on the sound when watching the video, so he didn't hear the conversation between An Wen's mother and Wen Li.

However, when he saw An Wen’s mother slap Wen Li, he frowned.

After watching the video, he turned off his phone and said to Wen Li calmly, "I understand."

Anwen's mother was puzzled.

Although she was sitting next to Huo Yuanchen, she couldn't lean over to see what he was looking at in front of him. She was so anxious that she scratched her head, but she didn't dare to ask.

Now seeing that Huo Yuanchen's attitude towards Wen Li was much more polite, he could no longer hold back and asked, "Yuanchen, what do you know?"

Huo Yuanchen said to her, "It's not convenient for An Wen to be alone in the hospital. You should go back to the hospital and take care of her first."

There was a distinct sense of distance in his tone.

An Wen's mother panicked and said, "I hired a nurse for Wen Wen. It doesn't matter if she returns a little later. Have you made it clear to Miss Wen? Miss Wen hit me. Did she have any misunderstanding with me? It doesn't matter if she misunderstood me. I just hope she won't take it out on my Wen Wen. Wen Wen is still young and naive. She doesn't know how to be on guard against others outside. I'm really afraid that she will be plotted against."

Listening to her words, the smile on Wen Li's lips grew bigger and bigger.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Huo Yuanchen, saying, "I have nothing to say. Professor Huo, if you are all right, I will leave first. I am busy with business recently, and I hope no more messy people will come to disturb me. Professor Huo, can you do me this favor for the sake of our past friendship?"

Huo Yuanchen nodded with an unpleasant expression and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen again in the future."

Wen Li picked up his things and left leisurely.

An Wen's mother wanted to say something else, but Huo Yuanchen also stood up and said to her in a very calm tone, "The car I called for you is about to arrive, you can go back."

Anwen's mother asked him persistently, "Aren't you going to the hospital with me? Wenwen has been complaining about headaches these past two days. Do you want to go see her? You know a lot, so you must know what's wrong with her headache."

Huo Yuanchen pursed his lips and said calmly, "I have a very important meeting later, so I won't go with you. I'll go see her on the weekend."

An Wen's mother had no choice but to say, "Okay, you must come over this weekend. I don't know anyone here, and Wen Wen is sick, so I always feel uneasy. It will be good to have you here. You know the people in the hospital, so if Wen Wen has any problems, you can go and tell them, and it will be convenient."

Huo Yuanchen nodded and sent An Wen's mother out.

When Wen Li returned to the studio, her cell phone rang. She took it out and saw Huo Yuanchen asking her, "Is your face okay?"

Wen Li ignored him, deleted the message, went to the bathroom, removed her makeup, and applied some anti-swelling medicine.

She had a photo shoot in the afternoon, and the other party specifically asked for her and paid her generously. Although there were many requirements, she did not do it perfunctorily and took every photo very carefully.

Of course, I am really tired.

When she finally saw the customer off, her legs were sore from squatting.

She was sitting on the sofa and massaging her legs. Li Hong came to find her and was stunned when she saw that she looked tired.

Then she said, "Sister Wen Li, I didn't understand your job before. I thought it was easy to just take pictures here and there with a camera. But since I came to work part-time with you, I know that you really work hard to earn this money. You hold such a heavy camera for a whole day, and you never mind the dirt or the fatigue in order to find a good angle. I want to learn from you."

Wen Li waved his hand at her, "No, what are you learning from me? You should focus on your scientific research and develop more life-saving drugs. I always think that what you do is more meaningful and much more valuable than what I do."

Li Hong was silent for a moment, then asked her, "Is this why you like Teacher Huo?"

Wen Li stopped talking.

Li Hong hesitated and said, "I think Teacher Huo likes you, too. I can't tell you why, maybe it's just intuition, I think Teacher Huo treats you differently."

Wen Li thought for a moment and said calmly, "Your intuition is wrong. I'm not his type. The difference in your eyes is actually just..."

It's just a man's physical desire for a woman.

She wanted to tell Li Hong this, but then she changed her mind and thought, Li Hong, the prospective doctor, is still single. What if she tells Li Hong this and scares her?

She then changed the topic and said, "When you meet someone who truly likes you in the future, you will know that the so-called difference does not mean anything."

Li Hong pursed her lips and said regretfully, "I just think it's a pity that you and Teacher Huo are separated like this. I really hope you can be my teacher's wife."

After a pause, he continued, "Not only me, but several fellow disciples also hope that you will become our master's wife."

Wen Li raised his eyebrows and looked at her, asking, "Have you seen An Ran?"

Li Hong's face froze, and she said unceremoniously, "You mean An Wen's sister? I've never seen her, I just heard An Wen talk about her often."

Wen Li nodded and said softly, "Maybe when you have a chance to meet An Ran, you will feel that she is more suitable to be your master's wife than me."

At least, that's what Huo Yuanchen thought in his heart.

In Wen Li's opinion, An Wen's mother came to cause trouble for her, and she fought back on the spot, and the matter ended there.

In the following days, she was not affected by this incident and continued to open the door to take photos for customers.

However, the number of fire safety inspections has increased significantly in the past few days, and she has persuaded her clients to leave on several occasions. Wen Li knew that she had offended someone.

She told Lu Ke about this.

He is a man of many talents and has many connections. He should be able to help find out who is secretly trying to trip her up.

After listening to her, Lu Ke said to her, "Don't worry about it. Leave this matter to me."
