Reborn! I Ditched the Run and Married the Heir
Chapter 110: How Did She Leave?
CHAPTER 110: CHAPTER 110: HOW DID SHE LEAVE?
Xiao Li suddenly didn’t want to say another word to Wen Xiaowen, stood up, and pulled Qin Xiao’s hand to leave.
Outside the door, the Wen brothers, Wen Jishan and Wen Jiliang, were waiting. Xiao Li, upon seeing them, wasn’t as emotional as when she saw Wen Xiaowen.
The events of the past could not be blamed on them. On the contrary, it was because of them that her mother wasn’t humiliated...
Xiao Li gently opened her mouth, "Uncle, Second Uncle."
Hearing Xiao Li call them uncle, the Wen brothers were excited as they responded, "Ah..."
After greeting them, Xiao Li asked, "Yesterday, Cheng Jue told me some things about the past, but I still don’t know how my mother left the Wen Family back then. Uncle, can you tell me?"
Xiao Li could have asked Qin Xiao, since he knew it all.
But Xiao Li didn’t want to ask. The uncle not mentioning it before, it was his own pain. If she asked, making him say it aloud, how hurtful that would be...
Better to ask someone from the second family!
Wen Jishan and Wen Jiliang exchanged a glance before Wen Jiliang spoke, "Originally, we didn’t want you to know these things. After all, they aren’t pleasant memories. Instead, they’re painful ones.
Even your cousins aren’t aware of the specifics. They only know that your mother was driven out of the Wen Family back then.
Since you’ve learned about it, let me explain in detail, to prevent anyone from using the past to hurt and scheme against you in the future.
This isn’t the right place to talk; let’s go to the study to discuss it!"
The group went to the study and sat down. Only then did Wen Jiliang begin, "Your mother left the Wen Family because of your grandmother. Back then, she suffered successive blows, which affected her mentally. To save your mom, your grandmother pleaded with Wen Xiaozheng.
As for why your mother had mental issues, it was because she believed your grandfather and grandmother suffered humiliation because of her. She spoke some things to your grandmother that day when she was almost humiliated..."
On that day, after Wen Lan was carried back to her room by Wen Jiliang, it was Bai Ruoqing who took care of her.
Under the influence of the drug, Wen Lan was tormented, trembling uncontrollably, so Bai Ruoqing hurriedly ran cold water and let Wen Lan lie in the bathtub...
When Wen Lan undid the sheets and lay in the bathtub, Bai Ruoqing saw the marks on her body and burst into tears from sorrow...
Only when Wen Lan lay in the cold water did the burning heat in her body slightly subside. Seeing Bai Ruoqing crying, she opened her mouth, "Mom, don’t cry. Fang Haiqiang didn’t take advantage of me.
Everything on my body is because I gave myself to the person I wanted to be with.
Mom, I’m sorry! I did something foolish, but I had no choice.
I know it’s impossible between him and me. In this life, I can only marry Fang Haiqiang.
But I don’t want to be Fang Haiqiang’s woman, even if I marry him, I won’t be his.
In this life, I’ll only belong to him, even if we can’t be together again."
As Wen Lan spoke, the fire just suppressed by the cold water reignited, torturing her to the point of shivering...
Bai Ruoqing was stunned at her words.
Though Bai Ruoqing had been with Bai Xiaowen before marriage, it was because she had been drugged.
Wen Lan’s nature was quite similar to Bai Ruoqing’s, being very gentle. Bai Ruoqing never expected her to do something so bold.
However, Bai Ruoqing didn’t intend to blame Wen Lan. She only felt heartache for Wen Lan. If not out of desperation, why would Lan’er take this step?
That night, the water in the bathtub was changed repeatedly; Wen Lan soaked in the cold water all night until dawn, when the drugs’ effect completely wore off, and only then did she crawl out of the bathtub...
After a night of torment, she was utterly exhausted. The drug Fang Haiqiang gave her the previous day was too strong. Even if she had done anything last night, the outcome wouldn’t have been good...
Bai Ruoqing stayed with Wen Lan the entire night. When she saw that she was about to come out, she helped her out of the bathtub...
She helped Wen Lan to the bed, dressed her, dried her hair, and waited until Wen Lan fell asleep before leaving.
But Wen Lan didn’t sleep at all. As soon as Bai Ruoqing left, she opened her eyes, staring at the ceiling...
The torment of the previous night made Wen Lan realize that her previous thoughts were too naive.
Wen Lan previously thought that to prevent the second family from being criticized by the main family, she would marry Fang Haiqiang, but she would never let him touch her.
However, Fang Haiqiang’s forcefulness yesterday and last night’s drug made Wen Lan realize that if Fang Haiqiang really tried, she, Wen Lan, had no ability to resist...
The thought of eventually being defiled made Wen Lan feel overwhelming sadness, and tears started flowing continuously...
But no matter how upset, Wen Lan never thought of not marrying Fang Haiqiang, because she couldn’t allow the second family to be caught in fault by the main family and be completely ousted from the Wen Family...
From that day on, Wen Lan became lifeless. Bai Ruoqing and Wen Xiaowen saw her condition and went to Wen Xiaozheng. What followed was an absurd incident.
Afterward, Cheng Jue brought forth the video to attack the three siblings. The Wen brothers were men, naturally mentally stronger, and weren’t defeated.
But Wen Lan couldn’t. She was a girl, more mentally fragile, and initially believed Bai Ruoqing went through all that for her, rendering her dumbfounded.
Her condition frightened Bai Ruoqing, reminding her of the time Wen Lan mentioned Xiao Zhennan, so she had Wen Jiliang investigate him in secret.
Once Wen Jiliang found Xiao Zhennan, he secretly took Wen Lan to meet him. At the moment Wen Lan saw Xiao Zhennan, she cried.
Wen Jiliang provided Xiao Zhennan with an explanation, saying previously the family disapproved of them being together, so Wen Lan broke up with him.
But after the breakup, Wen Lan couldn’t bear the pain of separation, affecting her mental health.
They couldn’t reveal the truth to Xiao Zhennan, nor could Wen Lan speak of it.
Suffering the same longing, Xiao Zhennan readily believed Wen Jiliang’s words.
Wen Lan stayed with Xiao Zhennan for two days, under his care.
With Xiao Zhennan’s care, Wen Lan’s condition gradually improved. Bai Ruoqing, aware of her situation, was determined not to let Wen Lan return to the Wen Family.
She approached Wen Xiaozheng, hoping to let Wen Lan leave the Wen Family.
Wen Xiaozheng had just been with Bai Ruoqing, and now she was asking him this favor. Wen Lan was just a girl, after all, so he agreed.
But Cheng Jue was not so easy to agree with. Yet since Wen Xiaozheng, the clan leader, agreed, Cheng Jue couldn’t do anything but set the condition that Wen Lan must be removed from the Wen Family’s register to leave.
Bai Ruoqing agreed. Her Wen Lan didn’t need the Wen Family’s name anymore; from then on, she would just be Wen Lan, not changing her surname, because her father is Wen!
Having received Wen Xiaozheng’s response, Bai Ruoqing returned to the second house. When Wen Xiaowen learned Bai Ruoqing went to the main house to plead for Wen Lan’s release, a bitter taste surged in his throat.
It was he who was incompetent, unable to protect his wife and daughter, letting them suffer so much grievance.
That night, Bai Ruoqing secretly left the Wen Family and went to the small utility room where Xiao Zhennan now lived.
Seeing Wen Lan, who had mentally improved, Bai Ruoqing smiled happily.
