Han Huiru frowned slightly as she listened, while Lu Nanxin’s palms were sweating.
She was truly afraid that Wen Jin might simply turn and leave. After all, Wen Jin had previously pursued Yu Anwan right in front of her.
Before this, Wen Jin had explained himself to Lu Nanxin.
Han Huiru had advised Lu Nanxin multiple times that in such situations, she needed to learn patience. Being overly forceful could backfire.
However, it seemed that whenever Yu Anwan’s name came up, Lu Nanxin would instantly lose control of her emotions.
So, now that Lu Chongming had openly posed the question, Lu Nanxin couldn’t classify her feelings as good or bad.
Listening to Lu Chongming’s words, Wen Jin was paying attention but directed his inquiry toward Lu Nanxin, “So, Nanxin, is this also your decision?”
Lu Nanxin bit her lip and looked at Wen Jin earnestly, saying, “Yes, it’s what I meant. I don’t want to continue like this. We’ve been engaged for many years. Back then, when you brought me back to Jiang City, you promised me a grand wedding.”
As she spoke, Lu Nanxin felt increasingly aggrieved, and her voice became subdued.
“And now that Yu Anwan is back, I feel like you’ve been fixated on her all this time. Is it just because she’s Zhanyan’s biological mother?” Lu Nanxin’s tone became more assertive.
It was just like how Wen Zhanming had insisted on Wen Jin and Yu Anwan’s marriage back then.
The first thing Lu Nanxin did was argue with Wen Jin. She even threatened to leave Jiang City, but what happened?
Wen Jin still got married, and Lu Nanxin left. Although Wen Jin would go abroad every year to reconcile with Lu Nanxin, Mrs. Lu was not Lu Nanxin after all. She even allowed Yu Anwan to give Wen Jin a son.
Therefore, at this point, Yu Anwan couldn’t hold back anymore.
“Wen Jin, I don’t want to wait any longer, so you can only choose between me and Yu Anwan,” Lu Nanxin’s attitude grew more dominant as she spoke.
Wen Jin just listened.
After Lu Nanxin finished speaking, Wen Jin didn’t rush to provide an answer.
He looked at Lu Nanxin calmly, asking, “Nanxin, everything I’ve said to you, has it all been in vain?”
Lu Nanxin bit her lip. “I just want you to give me an answer. I feel insecure, very worried, afraid that you’ll eventually leave me.”
“So, are you planning to take the initiative?” Wen Jin asked calmly.
Lu Nanxin didn’t know how to respond to Wen Jin’s question.
When Lu Chongming heard this, he grew angry. “Wen Jin, you have no right to dictate what Nanxin should do!”
Lu Chongming seemed as if he were about to approach Wen Jin, but Han Huiru anxiously grabbed onto Lu Chongming. She was genuinely concerned that Lu Chongming would worsen the situation.
Han Huiru continued to gaze at Lu Nanxin, attempting to calm her down.
However, Lu Nanxin couldn’t calm herself down, no matter what.
Perhaps it was the countless times Wen Jin had previously reassured Lu Nanxin that had made her completely fearless now.
Moreover, Wen Jin’s attitude didn’t seem angry under these circumstances.
Lu Nanxin took a deep breath, saying, “I just want an answer. If you can’t accept me, I’ll leave. Once I leave, I won’t come back. We’ll annul our engagement. ”
After uttering these words, Lu Nanxin felt a moment of regret.
Nevertheless, she still looked at Wen Jin calmly.
Wen Jin never shifted his gaze away from Lu Nanxin, and he suddenly offered a faint smile. “All these years, I’ve indulged you too much, and that’s why you’ve taken advantage of me step by step.”
Wen Jin’s voice remained tranquil.
His gaze remained fixed on Lu Nanxin, unwavering.
His thin lips moved slightly, but the words that escaped were even more ruthlessly heartless, “Since that’s the case, I believe we should both take a step back. If you want to annul the engagement, I have no objections.”
Lu Nanxin’s face underwent a sudden transformation, and she found it hard to believe what she had just heard.
So, was Wen Jin simply giving up on her like this?
Lu Nanxin’s breathing grew increasingly constricted.
Wen Jin didn’t even spare a glance at Lu Nanxin. He had already turned and walked out of the hospital room.
He had indulged Lu Nanxin far too much, leading her to threaten him repeatedly. In the past, she had threatened to leave, and now she had proposed canceling the engagement. What would happen next?
But each time now, it seemed Lu Nanxin was merely toying with him.
Wen Jin was not a person devoid of temper. It was just that his guilt toward Lu Nanxin led him to suppress his temper.
Moreover, Wen Jin knew very well how to handle Lu Nanxin. In such a situation, his concession would only drive Lu Nanxin closer. Wen Jin needed to wait for Lu Nanxin to come to him on her own.
He couldn’t keep giving in to Lu Nanxin.
Soon, Wen Jin had calmly exited the hospital.
Lu Nanxin watched in astonishment as Wen Jin departed, and in the next moment, she felt herself breaking down, wanting to chase after him without a second thought.
However, Lu Chongming acted more swiftly, gripping Lu Nanxin’s hand tightly. “Lu Nanxin, if you chase after him today, no matter what happens to you in the future, never return to the Lu family.”
He made himself explicitly clear without a trace of jest.
Lu Chongming was equally furious and directed his anger at Han Huiru. “This is the good daughter you raised!”
In the past twenty to thirty years, Lu Chongming had rarely been angered by Han Huiru. Compared to Xu Shuhui’s assertiveness, Han Huiru was as gentle as a breeze. This was why Han Huiru had been able to stay by Lu Chongming’s side for so long.
But now, Lu Chongming felt annoyed.
He was annoyed by Han Huiru and Lu Nanxin.
Lu Chongming even started to think that if Xu Shuhui had been here, things would not have ended up in such a sorry state.
If he chose Xu Shuhui, he would not be ostracized by the Lu family.
Lu Chongming had a lot of complicated emotions. He looked at Han Huiru and Lu Nanxin’s crying faces and left without saying a word.
Han Huiru watched as Lu Chongming left with tears in her eyes. She felt so wronged.
However, she quickly composed herself and turned her gaze toward Lu Nanxin.
“Nanxin, listen to Mommy’s advice. You can’t constantly control a man like
Wen Jin. Wen Jin’s social status won’t allow him to be controlled by you.”
“Mommy, Wen Jin doesn’t want me anymore…” Lu Nanxin was truly in despair.
Han Huiru consoled her, “Nanxin, listen to Mommy. You need to know when to push and when to yield. Since things have reached this point, you must genuinely let go in front of Wen Jin. If you do, Wen Jin will naturally come back to you. Look, even Yu Anwan did the same.. Isn’t that right?”
