087 Li Ling's Tea Ceremony 3

After a while, he finally took pity on Li Ling and turned his gaze to her.

Seeing this scene, Chu Jiuyue suddenly felt a strange, indescribable feeling welling up inside her. She vaguely sensed that what was about to happen might not go as smoothly as Li Ling had hoped...

Indeed, what she said next truly made Li Ling feel incredibly ashamed and indignant, to the point that her hatred for Chu Jiuyue intensified.

Faced with this situation, Chu Jiuyue couldn't help but feel helpless and speechless.

You should know that the person who truly hurt Li Ling and disgusted her was clearly the man Li Ling was in love with!

In the end, however, it was the innocent herself who bore the brunt of the anger and resentment, which made it difficult for Chu Jiuyue to find peace in her heart.

Just then, a cold and distant question suddenly rang out: "Who are you?"

The sound was like a sharp, icy arrow, instantly shattering the previously lively atmosphere and plunging the entire scene into a deathly silence.

Everyone turned their astonished gazes toward the speaker, Mo Wenchen, their eyes revealing an indescribable look of surprise.

However, upon closer reflection, everyone realized that it was understandable.

After all, Mo Wenchen had been serving in the military and hadn't been back to his hometown for a long time, so it wasn't surprising that he didn't recognize Li Ling.

However, the thought of Li Ling's long and detailed account of their childhood friendship still caused a slight awkwardness to appear on the faces of everyone present.

This embarrassment didn't stem from themselves, but rather from their own sympathy for Li Ling, who always considered herself a savior.

Imagine this: Li Ling goes on and on, expressing her emotions and pouring out her heart, only to find out in the end that the person in question has no idea who she is. Wouldn't that be incredibly awkward and make her feel utterly ashamed?

At that moment, even the usually intelligent Chu Jiuyue was completely taken aback when Mo Wenchen blurted out such words.

In an instant, her eyes widened, and she stared at the man in front of her with a look of astonishment, as if she were seeing a complete stranger.

However, at the same time, a very complex emotion quietly emerged deep in the depths of her beautiful eyes, a mixture of surprise, joy, or other indescribable feelings.

Even more unexpectedly, despite her myriad thoughts, for some reason, a feeling of joy welled up in her heart, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

So, when she turned her gaze to Mo Wenchen again, her originally sharp eyes softened unconsciously, even showing a warmth rarely seen in her usual gaze.

These subtle changes, of course, did not escape the keen, hawk-like eyes of Mo Wenchen beside him.

A slight smile played on his lips as he subtly nodded to himself, having already made up his mind: in the future, whenever he encountered a similar situation, he would be as decisive and ruthless as he was today, showing no mercy whatsoever!

After all, only by completely eliminating those persistent suitors, like unwanted romantic advances, can one ensure that their beloved wife will not feel even the slightest bit uneasy.

Only in this way will his wife become even more devoted to him, which is undoubtedly the best possible outcome.
