Chapter 14 - Humiliated

Wanyin waved to Wen Zhi, "Zhizhi, come here."

Wen Zhi's hand hanging by her side clenched slightly, her face unchanged as she walked over to Wanyin.

Wanyin gestured to Wen Zhi, "Zhizhi, this is Liang Yin, do you remember him?"

Wen Zhi looked up at Liang Yin and smiled lightly, "I remember, hello Brother Liang Yin."

"Brother Liang Yin…" Liang Yin stared at Wen Zhi, his eyes brimming with amusement.

Wen Zhi had not used to call him that way in the past; she always addressed him by his full name.

Later, he joined the army, and it had been five years since she last saw him.

No wonder Wanyin insisted on bringing her here today; Wanyin must have known she and Liang Yin knew each other from before.

However, at this moment, Liang Yin's gaze on Wen Zhi seemed somewhat unfamiliar. He scrutinized her for a moment, the corners of his mouth curled into a meaningful smile, "How come I don't remember ever having met you before?"

Wanyin immediately said, "Xiaoyin, she is Wen Zhi."

"Wen Zhi?" Liang Yin seemed to be recalling.

A moment later, he remembered and said half seriously and half mockingly, "Isn't your dad the man who, less than a month after his ex-wife died, turned around and married his own aunt?"

As soon as he said that.

The friends next to Liang Yin all turned their gazes towards Wen Zhi.

Their looks were like those of spectators at a circus watching a stunt, with Wen Zhi as the performing animal.

At that moment, Wen Zhi's hand hanging by her side slowly clenched, her voice slightly hoarse as she spoke, "Yes, you remembered correctly."

Her lips trembled.

Liang Yin saw it, his lips curled into a smirk, "So it's you. I haven't seen you in five years, you've changed so much I quite didn't recognize you."

Wen Zhi's eyes flickered.

Liang Yin stared at her, "You've become uglier."

Wen Zhi didn't get angry, but calmly said, "After going through too much, a person's appearance does indeed change, which is quite normal."

Liang Yin, "True, maybe in a few more years, you'll be completely unrecognizable."

Wen Zhi pursed her lips tightly, lowering her gaze.

Seeing the situation wasn't right, Wanyin affectionately took Wen Zhi's hand, "Zhizhi, why don't you go change your clothes first?"

Wen Zhi nodded, "Okay."

She already had no mood to stay longer; changing clothes was a good excuse to slip away. If Wanyin got angry, then let her be angry. She really didn't want to see Liang Yin's infuriating face anymore.

However, as she turned to leave, Liang Yin suddenly called out to her:

"Wait a second."

Wen Zhi didn't heed him and continued walking forward, but this time Liang Yin called her full name, "Wen Zhi, I told you to stop."

Wen Zhi paused in her step and forcefully shut her eyes.

She turned around, her lips curling into a forced smile, "So you were calling me."

Liang Yin's eyes twinkled with a mocking smile, "Since you don't play tennis anyway, there's no need to change. Just come straight onto the court."

Wen Zhi clenched her back teeth tightly; Liang Yin indeed knew she was planning to sneak away just now.

The group boarded the tour car.

Liang Yin put on sunglasses and sat in the passenger seat, Wanyin gestured to Wen Zhi, "You drive Xiaoyin."

Wen Zhi nodded and took the driver's seat.

Liang Yin eyed her, asking, "Can you drive?"

Wen Zhi nodded, "Yes."

Liang Yin lightly tugged at his lips, then asked, "When did you get your license?"

Wen Zhi answered, "Five years ago."

Liang Yin said no more, his gaze drifting towards the distant Red River Bank.

Five minutes ago.

Wei You also arrived at the rest area.

The issue with Huaqing had troubled him enough to keep him up all night. Planning to catch up on sleep this morning, he tossed and turned restlessly, so he decided to meet a couple of friends at the tennis court to unwind.

He had also invited Shang Hexing, but Shang Hexing had other commitments and couldn't come.

Just as Wei You got out of his car, a friend came up to him and said, "Look, isn't that Lady Shang?"

Wei You, hearing this, looked in the direction his friend pointed.
