He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

On the one hand, she felt somewhat annoyed by her mother's excessive interference in her love life.

On the other hand, Song Zhi's image involuntarily appeared in his mind.

Qin Zheng clearly realized that, whether it was three years ago or now, Song Zhi would never choose him.

Their relationship remained just that of ordinary friends.

Forget it.

Qin Zheng was lost in thought.

His gaze fell on Xiao Wan, who was still on the phone.

Xiao Wan was engrossed in talking to the person on the other end of the phone, completely unaware of his presence.

So he gently raised his hand and gestured slightly to Xiao Wan, indicating that he had something to do and needed to leave first.

Xiao Wan nodded, a smile playing on her lips, and waved for him to leave.

After receiving a response, he turned around and walked away with light steps.

After the person's figure gradually receded into the distance and disappeared from sight, Xiao Wan finally turned her attention back to the phone and said helplessly:

"Brother, I already know, so please stop nagging like a monk. My ears are getting calluses from all the nagging!"

A heavy, helpless sigh came from the other end of the phone, followed by a slightly indulgent voice.

"Alright, alright, whatever you say is right, anyway, I can't argue with you, you sharp-tongued little brat!"

"Hmph, that's true. I've already agreed to your request so readily, why aren't you satisfied? What else do you want?"

Xiao Wan complained coquettishly into her phone.

"Okay, I'm not saying anything more. Where are you now? When are you coming home?"

Since Jiang Huai's incident, her family has been very strict with her.

You must report everything you do to your family.

Xiao Wan was getting a little annoyed by his nagging: "Ugh, stop nagging! I'm having fun with my friends right now, I have to go, bye~"

After saying that, without giving the other party a chance to continue speaking, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

Xiao Wan put away her phone and slowly walked out of the hospital. She went straight to the roadside, reached out to hail a taxi, and planned to go to the mall to relax.

Just then, a black luxury car silently pulled up in front of her.

Xiao Wan was slightly taken aback. Her gaze followed to the car's wheels, and when she saw the brand logo embedded on them, she couldn't help but curl her lip, muttering to herself, "Tch, what's so great about driving a luxury car..."

As she thought about it, she subconsciously took two steps to the side, trying to keep a certain distance from the eye-catching luxury car.

However, just as she was about to look away, suddenly, a familiar voice called out to her: "Xiao Wan!"

Xiao Wan stopped in her tracks, her body stiffening slightly, before she tilted her head curiously to look into the car.

When she saw the man sitting in the car, she was completely stunned.

Zhou Yan!

Her eyes widened, and she couldn't help but wonder: What a coincidence that I would run into him here?

Recalling the time she mustered up the courage to confess her feelings to him, only to be rejected in the end, Xiao Wan suddenly felt her face flush and became somewhat embarrassed.

She forced an awkward smile and greeted Zhou Yan through the car window, "Brother Zhou Yan, what a coincidence!"

As he spoke, his eyes darted away, avoiding direct eye contact.

Zhou Yan smiled and asked in a relaxed tone, "Did you come here to visit Song Xiaozhi?"

Xiao Wan nodded and replied, "Yes."

Zhou Yan then warmly invited, "That's perfect, let's go together."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wan felt a sense of unease and awkwardness.

She hesitated for a moment, then politely declined, saying, "I've already seen her come out, so I won't go in with you."

Zhou Yan, however, did not seem to give up. He still smiled and persuaded, "Let's go together. It would be awkward for me to go alone."

Faced with Zhou Yan's persistent invitation, Xiao Wan seemed somewhat hesitant.

On the one hand, she really didn't want to be alone with Zhou Yan again, lest they both find themselves in an even more awkward situation.

On the other hand, it's not good to directly offend him...

Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Yan said softly, "Then consider it helping your brother out a little. I'll treat you to a meal later."

Although she was still somewhat unwilling, since Zhou Yan had already put it that way, she really couldn't refuse anymore.

Finally, he nodded helplessly and replied, "Okay."

Seeing Xiao Wan nod in agreement, Zhou Yan's face immediately lit up with a bright smile. As he spoke, he waved to Xiao Wan and said, "Come on up, I'll drive the car to the hospital's underground parking garage first."

Xiao Wan took a deep breath, slowly walked to the passenger door, opened it, and got in.

The car's interior wasn't spacious, yet it made her feel inexplicably cramped and nervous.

This feeling intensified, especially when Zhou Yan sat silently beside her.

Normally she was very outgoing, but in front of Zhou Yan she became shy and timid, and didn't even have the courage to start a conversation.

Time passed slowly, and the carriage was so quiet that only the two people's soft breathing could be heard.

Just then, Zhou Yan broke the silence, turned to Xiao Wan and asked with a smile, "What have you been busy with lately? It seems like we haven't heard from you in a long time."

Xiao Wan was slightly taken aback, then chuckled twice and replied, "I'm not busy with anything, I just stay at home all day doing nothing, just being a lazy bum who's waiting to die."

As soon as she said it, she realized that her answer seemed a bit dejected, so she quickly added with an awkward laugh.

After listening, Zhou Yan nodded slightly and said thoughtfully, "Such a life is quite enviable."

Xiao Wan gave another slightly stiff smile, unsure of how to respond.

Zhou Yan seemed oblivious to her discomfort. After a slight pause, he suddenly asked, "I also heard you're getting married. Congratulations! But where's your boyfriend? Why didn't you bring him to meet me today?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wan's eyes widened in astonishment.

She quickly pressed on, "Who told you I was getting married? Did Zhizhi tell you?"

Zhou Yan shook his head and denied it.

Xiao Wan frowned slightly. Who said she was getting married?

She's not getting married at all; there's no such thing.

Suddenly I thought of that scumbag Jiang Huai.

She was planning to marry Jiang Huai, but unexpectedly, she became the other woman.

This is simply a disgrace to her romantic history.
