Chapter 697
“Alright, let’s not talk about him anymore.”
An Ruo still went to the hospital after having breakfast.
When she arrived, it was almost half-past eight. Tang Yuchen had just gotten out of bed, and seeing her, he asked her to help him with his morning wash.
This man really spared no effort in treating her like a nanny.
After she had taken care of everything for him, he lay in bed and told her, “The lawyer should soon be able to complete the divorce procedures with Ke Ren, and the divorce certificate will be quickly sent over.”
As if not hearing what he said, An Ruo asked indifferently, “What do you want to eat? I’ll go buy it for you.”
Tang Yuchen felt powerless, trying to read the slightest hint of her inner thoughts from her expression was really difficult.
“Anything will do, I’m fine with anything.”
“Then I’ll go buy you some porridge.”
An Ruo went downstairs to buy him breakfast, and when she returned, she saw Lan Keren standing in the ward.
She stood by the bed, talking to Tang Yuchen about something. When she came back, both of their gazes landed on her.
“Hello.” Lan Keren greeted her with a smile, and she responded with a polite greeting as well.
While An Ruo was taking care of Tang Yuchen’s breakfast, Lan Keren stood aside without saying a word. Once Tang Yuchen had finished eating, she said to her, “Do you have a moment? I’d like to talk to you.”
An Ruo pondered for a moment and nodded, “Alright.”
Tang Yuchen said nothing, seemingly indifferent to what Lan Keren might say to An Ruo.
The two women went down to the garden and sat on a bench. Lan Keren smiled and said, “It seems we have never really talked properly.”
They had known each other as love rivals, how could they have had the chance to talk properly?
But Lan Keren didn’t leave a bad impression on An Ruo.
She was different from Lisa, Yun Feixue, and An Xin; she had never done anything despicable to her, so An Ruo had never harbored hostility towards her.
An Ruo nodded slightly, and Lan Keren continued, “The lawyer just called to say that the divorce procedures between Ah Chen and I are now complete. I want to know, are you still willing to be with him?”
“Is this what you wanted to talk to me about?”
“Yes, I hope the two of you can still be together,” Lan Keren said sincerely.
An Ruo didn’t understand her thoughts; wasn’t she in love with Tang Yuchen? Why would she say these things to her?
“I know that Ah Chen’s marriage to me hurt you, and I’ve heard him say that you won’t be together with him anymore. But Ah Chen loves you very much, and I still hope you can reconcile.”
An Ruo said indifferently, “Lady Lan, do you still like Tang Yuchen? If you do, why are you telling me this? If you don’t want to say something insincere, then don’t say it.”
Lan Keren gave a slight smile, “I’m sincere, not insincere. I used to like Ah Chen very much, but I know that in his heart, there’s only you. Since he doesn’t love me, I won’t cling to him. Besides, after everything that’s happened, I know who I should choose.”
“What do you mean by that?” An Ruo asked, puzzled.
“That’s my private matter, actually not much to talk about. But there’s something I need to make clear to you.”
“What?”
After talking with Lan Keren, An Ruo finally understood that there really was nothing between her and Tang Yuchen.
Years ago, Lan Keren volunteered to be a mole and infiltrate an organization called ’Blood Slaughter’, all for Tang Yuchen to successfully break away from his organization. But after she entered, she was injected with a virus by people in the organization.
