Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 1327: Chapter 1327: Remember Your Place

Meng Yanzhi glanced at her coldly, and even though he said nothing, Wen Yun just knew he was angry.

But, why was he angry?

"Who are you?"

Hu Shuwei looked at Meng Yanzhi, dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, exuding an air of superiority that made Hu Shuwei instinctively feel inferior.

Especially with Meng Yanzhi holding Wen Yun by the waist, and Wen Yun not objecting.

Could it be that Wen Yun was really married?

Hu Shuwei’s face turned pale, and even the pain in his stomach seemed to lessen a bit.

"Don’t even think about her."

Meng Yanzhi didn’t even bother to glance at Hu Shuwei. These days, he’s been eating outside, and even though every meal was meticulously prepared, it lacked the warmth of Wen Yun’s home-cooked meals. He’d rather squeeze into a small dining room with Wen Yun than eat in a spacious grand one, as if something was missing.

Meng Yanzhi finally decided to return, and just as he was passing by her hospital, thinking of bringing her home, he saw Hu Shuwei pulling at Wen Yun. He was furious, his body moving faster than his mind.

"We’re going home."

Meng Yanzhi wrapped an arm around Wen Yun and left, not sparing Hu Shuwei another glance.

Wen Yun was preoccupied with why Meng Yanzhi was angry, not noticing Hu Shuwei’s state at all.

In the shadows, once Meng Yanzhi and Wen Yun had left, Wen Jiao emerged from the shade of a large tree with a look of amusement.

She stepped in high heels, one step at a time, walking up to Hu Shuwei and asked, "Do you like Wen Yun?"

"Who are you?"

Hu Shuwei, still shaken, hadn’t yet recovered. Seeing Wen Jiao approach, he frowned and replied irritably.

"Who I am is not important, what’s important is that I know what’s going on with Wen Yun." Wen Jiao had seen clearly that this man liked Wen Yun. She smiled slightly, sighed, and said, "Actually, Wen Yun is quite pitiable, forced to be with a man she doesn’t love."

"What?" Hu Shuwei took an interest in Wen Jiao’s words.

In Wen Jiao’s story, Mr. Wen was a heinous man who would even sell his daughter for profit.

And as for Meng Yanzhi, Wen Jiao painted him as completely worthless.

Wen Yun seemed like a pitiful soul, making Hu Shuwei feel that as a man, he should rescue her.

...

"When did you come back?"

"Why are you at the hospital?"

"You didn’t come to pick me up, did you?"

On the way back, Wen Yun felt awkward with the silent walk and tried to start a conversation, but Meng Yanzhi’s silence was intimidating.

Thus, Wen Yun was brought home by Meng Yanzhi in silence.

"What are you doing?"

Wen Yun looked at Meng Yanzhi with alarm, instantly retreating as soon as she was free, staring at him defensively.

"Punishment."

The room was unlit, relying only on the streetlight and moonlight streaming through the window, making Meng Yanzhi’s eyes appear dark and eerie, mysteriously frightening Wen Yun a little...

"Remember your status, and don’t disgrace the Meng Family."

Meng Yanzhi’s voice was icy.

Hearing this, Wen Yun felt even more hurt and stifled. She said, "There’s nothing between Hu Shuwei and me."

"You were tossing and tugging near the hospital, do you think others will believe that?" Meng Yanzhi retorted.

Wen Yun pressed her lips together, leaning back against the wall, and replied, "Nothing means nothing. I’ve already told him I’m married, but if he doesn’t believe it, what can I do?"

Wen Yun felt wronged too!

"Don’t let it happen again."

After saying this, Meng Yanzhi turned and left.

When the door closed, Wen Yun slid down the wall, arms wrapped around her knees as silent tears fell. The goodwill she had accumulated until now, she realized today, was all just her wishful thinking!

She and Meng Yanzhi were fundamentally people from two different worlds.

From that day, Meng Yanzhi and Wen Yun slipped into a cold war.

No, it couldn’t even be called a cold war; they simply didn’t see each other.

Wen Yun switched to night shifts, working at night, sleeping in the room during the day.

Even her own meals were makeshift; when hungry, she’d munch on bread.

The dinners that Meng Yanzhi often craved naturally didn’t happen.

During this period, even the assistant’s days weren’t easy working beside Meng Yanzhi, always on edge, fearing a single mistake would have him scolded harshly.

The assistant saw it and was anxious, but how could Mr. Meng possibly lower his head?

As for the lady, she seemed to be equally stubborn.

At this rate, the assistant felt he might age prematurely!

Finally, the assistant caught a break when Wen Yun was tricked into attending a class reunion.

Wen Jiao had invited Wen Yun out, but it turned out to be a class reunion.

Once Wen Yun arrived, she couldn’t just leave.

Some brought their wives, others their husbands, leaving only Hu Shuwei and Wen Yun as the singles. Even Hu Lijuan brought her boyfriend along.

Then everyone started teasing, suggesting that Hu Shuwei and Wen Yun get together.

Wen Yun smiled and declined politely, stating she had a husband, but no one believed her. Wen Yun smiled and said, "Hu Shuwei saw him last time, right?"

Hu Shuwei remained silent.

Everyone began to egg her on to call her husband out so they could all see him.

Even Hu Shuwei insisted Wen Yun call her husband.

According to Wen Jiao, Wen Yun’s husband was certainly uninterested and wouldn’t show up, which might even lead to a fight.

Wen Yun, finding it difficult to refuse, reluctantly called Meng Yanzhi. Hearing the assistant answer, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the assistant didn’t say much, upon hearing Wen Yun was at a reunion, his eyes lit up. After finding out it was at the same hotel, he thought to himself, "What a coincidence."

The assistant seized the opportunity to discreetly tell Mr. Meng, who was dining with someone: "Mr. Meng, Madam just called; she’s here at a class reunion, and her classmates want to meet you."

"No time."

Without a second thought, Meng Yanzhi responded, smiling as he resumed drinking with his business partner.

Ten minutes later, Meng Yanzhi stood up, bid farewell, and hurriedly asked, "Where is she?"

"Madam is in the Rose Hall."

The assistant replied swiftly, having prepared in advance. He said, "That Hu Shuwei who was pestering Madam last time is also there; shall we..."
