She heard from Gu Xinchen that these days Wen Zhan was busy with the old man's funeral affairs, while handling a lot of official business in the company, and also had to deal with all kinds of dissatisfaction and rejection within the Wen family - the situation was very bad.
She took the initiative to call Wen Zhan, wanting to show her concern, but his attitude was cold and indifferent and he was unwilling to say anything more - which left her with a huge gap in her heart.
In the past, the three of them talked about everything.
So Lu Kejun contacted her husband again and said that it happened to be Saturday and that he would meet Wen Zhan for dinner in the evening to ask if there was anything they could help with.
——After all, both of their families are family friends with the Wen family, and Mr. Wen treats them like his own grandchildren.
They should also take care of the old man's affairs out of emotion and reason.
However, Gu Xinchen's kindness was also rejected by Wen Zhan.
This made Lu Kejun extremely dissatisfied and firmly believed that Mu Wanqing must be the devil, causing Wen Zhan to dare not contact them.
"It's so irritating! The only thing the old man did wrong in his life was to let the third brother marry that woman! He ruined the third brother's life!" After hanging up the phone, Lu Kejun gritted his teeth angrily while holding the phone.
Gu Xinchen was also sitting in the car. Hearing this, he scolded: "Kejun!"
It means that what she said went too far.
The elderly are firstly elders, and secondly they have passed away. It would be disrespectful to slander them after their death.
Lu Kejun pursed his lips and said without confidence: "I...I am also dizzy with anger..."
Gu Xinchen said nothing more, looking down at the laptop on the small table, his fingers continued to be busy typing on the keyboard.
After a while, he finished his work, closed his notebook, and said to his wife: "With Wen Zhan's temper, no one can control it unless he is willing."
The implication is that this is not Mu Wanqing's fault.
Lu Kejun looked back at her husband, disapprovingly: "But that woman is getting a divorce at this juncture! Third brother should be more concerned."
"If he cares about the other person's feelings, it means that he values the other person and the family." Gu Xinchen looked at his wife with even more disapproval in his eyes, "I told you, getting married is different from before. You want be careful."
Lu Kejun stared at her husband with a hurt face, "Why, he...he is just like my brother. Doesn't it mean that after my brother gets married, he can't have a sister or a family?"
"I'm just like a brother. After all, I'm not your real brother." Gu Xinchen said with a cold face, speaking more clearly.
"Gu Xinchen, what do you mean? The three of us grew up together for more than 20 years! Have you forgotten how Wen Zhan protected us all these years and how he helped you seize the family property? What you are saying now... is simply... Cold-blooded and ruthless!”
Gu Xinchen felt angry when he saw that his wife's heart was biased towards others.
"Lu Kejun! When are you going to grow some brains? If you remember how good he is to us, you should draw a clear line with him and stop causing trouble to their husband and wife. Do you really think there is anything between men and women? Pure friendship? Don’t think that I don’t know what you are thinking, you just want to occupy me and Wen Zhan at the same time! If you see that he is good to other women and cold to you, you won’t be able to stand it! "
Gu Xinchen had wanted to say these words for a long time, but he just didn't want to affect the relationship between the two of them, so he kept holding on.
But now he sees that his wife is getting more and more excessive, and he really can't bear it anymore.
Sure enough, as soon as he said these words, Lu Kejun's beautiful, doll-like face turned to stone and froze, and his delicate facial features seemed to be shattered.
"Xinchen...you--that's how you miss me..." After a while, Lu Kejun spoke in a broken tone.
Gu Xinchen originally wanted to say: Since you can't let go of Wen Zhan so much, why didn't you marry him in the first place? Why do you want to marry me?
But looking at the woman's heartbroken face, he finally relented and stopped talking.
The atmosphere in the car became cold. Gu Xinchen knew that if he coaxed him a little, the matter would be over, but he also had a feeling of arrogance in his heart that he couldn't get up and down.
Therefore, the two of them remained in a stalemate until they returned home.
But when he got home, Lu Kejun did not enter the house. Instead, he went to the garage, drove his car out, and drove away.
Gu Xinchen was walking in front and had not yet entered the main room of the villa. When he saw this, he turned back and his face darkened: "Lu Kejun!"
He snapped, but it was of no use, and soon only the taillights were left on the car.
The special assistant who sent them back saw this and immediately looked at the boss: "Mr. Gu, do you want me to catch up?"
Gu Xinchen secretly gritted his teeth and endured the cold tone of his voice: "No, just let her."
He had been married for just over a year, and except for the first few months when he was newlywed, where he felt the happiness and warmth of his family, the days afterward became worse and worse day by day.
The eldest lady has such a willful temper and is still making noises every day about wanting to have a baby and become a mother - luckily he didn't agree, otherwise the whole situation would be even worse!

Wen Zhan went home, put down his briefcase and looked around the living room.
He didn't find the person he wanted to see.
Aunt Zhou saw through it at a glance, and when she stepped forward to take the master's coat, she whispered: "My wife hasn't gone downstairs all day. She stayed in the room."
Wen Zhan frowned, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"It should be... okay, oops, I'm probably shy." Aunt Zhou had a narrow look on her face and an ambiguous smile.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Wen Zhan's face became strange, and his ears flushed.
Going upstairs and outside the master bedroom, the man's big hands were on the door, and he hesitated again.
She was so shy that she didn't go out for a whole day, so why was he too?
Originally, he had to work overtime on Saturday and had some things to deal with, but he was absent-minded all day. When Lu Kejun called in the afternoon, he didn't have the time to deal with it and hung up after just a few words.
Later, Gu Xinchen called again and asked to have dinner together in the evening, but he refused without thinking.
My mind was filled with thoughts about the one at home, and my mind was filled with replaying the scenes of the morning.
Fortunately, it was Saturday, so there were only a few people in the CEO's office, and no one came to disturb him. He sat there for a while, in a daze, um... or in other words, aftertaste.
Taking a deep breath to calm his restless heart, the man finally opened the door.
Mu Wanqing was sitting on the terrace with a book in her hand.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, she turned back quickly and unexpectedly caught a glimpse of the man. She quickly turned back and continued reading.
However, my heart was agitated, my ears were ringing, and my cheeks were feeling hot - I couldn't read a single word.
Seeing her like this, Wen Zhan forgot all the words he had planned.
He stood at the door for a few seconds before walking inside and clearing his throat to break the silence.
"You...you're back..." Mu Wanqing could only say hello.
"Yes." Wen Zhan approached, raised a file bag in his hand, and handed it to her.
"What?" The woman looked back slightly, not daring to raise her eyes to meet him.
"You'll know just by looking at it. Grandpa left it for you."
Grandpa left her?
Mu Wanqing was surprised and then quickly took it.
