The Whole World Wants Me To Get Divorced chapter 49

Failed Tampering

When Rong Xiao arrived at the mountain stream villa, the sky was already revealing a faint dawn. Yu Bu Wen unloaded the luggage behind him, while he stood at a higher place, overlooking the lush trees in the mountains. Even in winter, these trees remained evergreen.

He used to come here for vacation frequently, to avoid the harassment from the Demon Control Bureau. Here, even the cell phone signal was blocked by a barrier. To contact him, urgent help had to be sought through voice transmission charms.

So, Rong Xiao always liked this place.

However, standing here today, looking at the villa that had not yet lit up, he felt that it was too desolate. It was almost silent, with only the sounds of birds and flowing water in the mountains.

Yu Bu Wen had already placed the luggage inside, Rong Xiao withdrew his gaze, and he entered the villa.

Several lights inside the villa lit up, becoming the only warm light in this vast wilderness.

At the Wen Family.

Rong Xiao had left for almost a day, but Wen Yan still hadn’t woken up.

Wen Luojiang and Qiao Shan were not worried. Rong Xiao had instructed them that due to the significant tampering of memory, Wen Yan might take a while to wake up. However, with Wen Yan’s current condition, this brief slumber wouldn’t affect him much.

But the two of them, rare for not going to the company, sat in the living room from dawn to dusk, with no desire to speak.

After a while, Qiao Shan sighed and asked Wen Luojiang, “Do you think that after Yan Yan wakes up, he can really forget everything?”

Wen Luojiang also sighed, replying, “Mr. Rong personally intervened. How could Yan Yan still remember?”

Qiao Shan thought about it, but there was always a sense of unease in her heart.

She thought of the scene where they took Wen Yan to Rong’s house, remembered the smile on Wen Yan’s face over the past six months, and recalled the way Wen Yan looked at Rong Xiao…

She was an experienced person. How could she know if her son had truly fallen into Rong Xiao’s hands? Otherwise, Wen Yan wouldn’t be so eager to marry Rong Xiao. He wasn’t really looking forward to the wedding; he just wanted to declare sovereignty early, making Rong Xiao completely his.

But now, not only was there no wedding, but Rong Xiao might also die in a place where Wen Yan couldn’t see, without even saying goodbye.

Qiao Shan held her forehead, feeling a splitting headache.

She thought, if Wen Yan could make a choice while awake, would he prefer to forget everything or be willing to accompany his lover to the end?

But regardless of what choice Wen Yan would make, Rong Xiao had already made the decision for him. She thought everything was already settled, and there was no point in being entangled.

Meanwhile, in Wen Yan’s room upstairs, a golden light flashed and shattered into countless tiny golden fragments before surging into Wen Yan’s body.

If there were demons or cultivators here, they would surely be amazed by the enormous spiritual power in this room.

The light was very gentle, and Wen Yan felt no discomfort. He only felt his entire body enveloped in a warm and moist power, and he fell even deeper into sleep.

He slept until the evening of the next day. Before leaving, Rong Xiao had lit a calming incense in his room, and the whole room was filled with a faint sweet fragrance.

So, when Wen Yan woke up, he felt refreshed and even subconsciously turned to the side, intending to snuggle into Rong Xiao’s arms and act coquettishly.

However, he found himself empty-handed, and after groping around for a while, he couldn’t touch the familiar chest muscles. He reluctantly opened his eyes, and after some effort, he found the bedside lamp. When the light turned on, he realized that he wasn’t in the mansion in the courtyard but in his own home.

He slowly sat up, noticing that the suit he had worn the night before had been changed, and he was now wearing familiar pajamas. However, Rong Xiao, his fiancé who he had just successfully proposed to yesterday, wasn’t by his side.

Wen Yan wrinkled his brows, feeling a bit confused. He didn’t know how he had returned home. He tried to recall but couldn’t remember anything that happened after midnight. He could only attribute it to getting drunk and having memory lapses.

Wen Yan brushed his teeth while self-doubting, suspecting that he had gone crazy after drinking, making a fuss about going home. That was why Rong Xiao had brought him back. Since Rong Xiao wasn’t there now, he didn’t think much of it. He simply assumed that the damn Demon Control Bureau had once again taken Rong Xiao away while trying to steal his husband.

After changing into his home outfit, Wen Yan went downstairs.

Both his parents were in the living room, and there was a sweet honey scent in the air. On the table were several snacks he liked.

Wen Yan didn’t notice that his parents’ expressions were a bit stiff. He casually greeted them as usual, picked up a bowl of almond tofu, and asked while eating, “Mom, where did Rong Xiao go? Did he send me back yesterday?”

He asked casually and calmly, with a volume that wasn’t too loud, but it was like thunder, striking everyone in the room.

Wen Luojiang and Qiao Shan looked at him as if they had seen a ghost.

Taking advantage of Wen Yan’s deep sleep, they had spent two hours preparing themselves. They couldn’t let the amnesiac Wen Yan perceive that something was wrong. Yet now, Wen Yan casually mentioned Rong Xiao’s name.

The two exchanged glances and saw the same panic in each other’s eyes.

Unable to hold back, Wen Luojiang asked in surprise, “Do you still remember Rong Xiao?”

Wen Yan had already eaten half a bowl of almond tofu, feeling good, and wanted Yu Bu Wen to learn from him. Upon hearing his dad’s words, he looked at him strangely.

“What do you mean by ‘do I still remember’? Can I forget my own boyfriend?” Wen Yan bit the small spoon, raised his eyebrows at his dad, and said, “Your words sound like you’re trying to separate our relationship.”

Speaking of which, Wen Yan remembered that he hadn’t reported the result of the proposal to his parents.

He happily told his parents, “By the way, let me inform you of the result of yesterday’s proposal. Although you probably guessed it early on, I still want to announce it. From now on, Rong Xiao is officially your son-in-law.”

As he thought about it, he felt more and more pleased, thinking that the honey on the almond tofu wasn’t as sweet as Rong Xiao’s. The old monster had said a lot of sweet words last night, making him feel overjoyed.

Wen Luojiang and Qiao Shan, on the other hand, were completely at a loss. Now they couldn’t deny it even if they wanted to. Wen Yan hadn’t forgotten anything. They, despite being composed and steady, were now lost. They were just ordinary humans, ignorant of demon techniques, and didn’t know how to respond to Wen Yan’s questions.

Wen Yan, seeing them silent, didn’t suspect anything. He just thought Rong Xiao had left through the window again, and his parents didn’t know.

But his heart was entirely with his fiancé. It was the honeymoon period, and he couldn’t stand being apart from the old monster for a moment. He couldn’t wait to spend time alone with Rong Xiao.

So, after eating a few bites of snacks, Wen Yan wiped his mouth with a tissue and told his parents, “I won’t stay at home today. I’m going back to the Green Mountain community. I’ll bring Rong Xiao back in a couple of days.”

He said it and didn’t wait for his parents to respond. He quickly disappeared, randomly picked a car in the garage, and drove away.

Wen Luojiang and Qiao Shan were in a daze the entire time. Even after Wen Yan had driven away, they still hadn’t recovered.

Their first reaction was to try calling Rong Xiao, but the phone informed them that it was already turned off.

At the same moment, Wen Yan was also calling Rong Xiao, hearing a busy tone each time. He then switched to Yu Bu Wen’s phone, and the result was the same—turned off.

Strange…

Wen Yan threw the phone onto the passenger seat, suspecting that Rong Xiao and Yu Bu Wen might be on another business trip to some remote place. However, it didn’t make sense because Rong Xiao would always send him a message before going on a trip.

With this doubt in mind, he drove back to their home with Rong Xiao. When he entered, he sensed an unusual quietness in the house.

The courtyard was the same, full of lush flowers and plants. Even in the dead of winter, roses were blooming charmingly, defying the seasonal rules. The fish in the pond were still swimming, and the lotus leaves on the pond were neatly arranged.

However, the house was eerily silent, without a trace of light.

Previously, even when there was no one at home, the lights were always on because Rong Xiao knew that Wen Yan didn’t like the house to be too dark.

Wen Yan walked in with some suspicion.

The security system in this courtyard still allowed Wen Yan to enter, assuming he was still the master of this house.

But as Wen Yan walked around inside, he found that many things were missing from the house. The snowman he made on the windowsill was gone, and Rong Xiao’s frequently used tea set was also missing. Even the set of knives in the kitchen that Yu Bu Wen liked so much was gone.

Wen Yan walked towards his and Rong Xiao’s room, and there was no trace of warmth in the room. The bed and decorations were neatly arranged. Rong Xiao usually liked to casually throw books around, but now all the books were neatly placed on the bookshelf.

Wen Yan opened the wardrobe with a slap. His clothes were still there, but half of Rong Xiao’s clothes were missing. Almost all of the custom-made clothes that Rong Xiao frequently wore were gone.

Wen Yan stood in front of the wardrobe in a daze. He had once given Rong Xiao a tie and emerald cufflinks. Both of these were missing.

Even he, who wasn’t very smart, could tell that something was wrong now.

The level of cleanliness in this arrangement was more like moving than going on a business trip.

Rong Xiao and Yu Bu Wen’s commonly used items were gone, and no message was left for him. The phones were also not answering, as if Rong Xiao had left him alone in this house.

He, unwillingly, called Rong Xiao’s phone again, but it was useless. No matter how many times he called, it was just a busy tone on the other side.

At that moment, Wen Yan realized another thing.

His phone had been changed.

Although it was still the same model, and all the apps were downloaded for him, the contact information for Rong Xiao and Yu Bu Wen was no longer there.

When he made the call just now, he directly pressed the number instead of using the shortcut.

Wen Yan sat on the sofa, contemplating for a long time. A sense of panic rose in his heart. Although he was unwilling, he had to face a reality.

That is, his newly engaged boyfriend might have, perhaps, probably, broken up with him before they even got a chance to be warm in each other’s arms.

Wen Yan was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

But he felt that he shouldn’t be too good at associating. Trembling, he took out his phone and called Li Zheng.

Fortunately, Li Zheng’s number hadn’t been deleted.

Li Zheng was having dinner at home. Wen Yan had been sleeping heavily these past two days, and he didn’t want to disturb him by going to his house. But internally, he sighed at the unfortunate love life of his friend and secretly vowed to treat Wen Yan better in the future.

Suddenly, seeing Wen Yan’s incoming call on his phone, he was almost scared enough to drop it.

But he remembered what Yu Bu Wen had done to intimidate him, knowing that Wen Yan’s memory had been tampered with.

So, when Wen Yan called at this moment, it shouldn’t be to invite him out or play games.

He steeled himself and quickly answered the phone, trying to sound casual, “Hey, why are you looking for me at this hour? Are you asking me out? “

But he didn’t finish his words.

He heard Wen Yan take a deep breath on the other side, his voice melancholy as if it had just rained, “Li Zheng… I suspect that I’ve been dumped right after getting engaged. Could it be that Rong Xiao and Yu Bu Wen have eloped…”

Li Zheng’s bowl fell to the ground, shattering.

But he didn’t pay attention to it and shouted like a frightened chicken, “What did you just say??? How do you still remember! Weren’t you supposed to lose your memory?”

Because the prohibition imposed by Yu Bu Wen was still in effect, he couldn’t say Rong Xiao’s name.

But the words “lose memory” hit Wen Yan hard.

Li Zheng panicked, covering his mouth.

Oh no.

The mouth was dry, and the speech prohibition couldn’t stop his chatter.

Wen Yan, sitting on the sofa, narrowed his eyes dangerously, realizing that something was wrong.

“Li Zheng, did you do something behind my back? Are you at home now? Don’t run, wait for me,” Wen Yan said as he rushed out of the door and got into the car, “I’m coming to you now.”
