Perfection

CH 50

Wen Jianing went to the villa where he used to live with Wen Cuilan. Instead of driving, the two walked slowly over. This is somewhat a well established high-end villa area, and Wen Jianing has lived here for many years and never thought of moving.

The trees, flowers and plants in the neighbourhood have been growing for many years, and this short one or two years will not change anything. It’s as if everything was the same as when he left.

Walking past the area like this accompanied by his mother, makes Wen Jianing feel in a daze. He can’t tell whether he is living in the present or in the past.

Wen Cuilan always said that she regretted that she spent too little time with Wen Jianing in the end. But Wen Jianing doesn’t think so. After remarrying, Wen Cuilan obviously lives happier, and he himself was too busy. When Wen Cuilan stays with him, she is alone at home most of the time. If he can choose, he still hopes that his mother can live with the people she loves and live a happier life.

When they arrived in front of Wen Jianing’s villa, the two stopped.

The exterior wall does not look desolate because of the property being taken care of. But it might be because no one lived for so many years, the house inside looks very dark from the window.

When he opened the door and went in, Wen Jianing smelled a cold and stale smell rushing to his face. The furniture in the house had not been moved and was covered with a layer of white cloth.

Wen Cuilan couldn’t hold back her tears.

”Have a look,” she said to Wen Jianing.

In fact, there is nothing for him to see. Wen Jianing is too informed about this home. He heard Wen Cuilan say next to him, “After Jianing left, this place has remained untouched in its original state. I don’t know if you like these furnitures, I can ask someone to move it if you don’t like it.”

Wen Jianing walked to the middle of the living room and reached out to touch the TV cabinet. A photo of him was originally displayed here, but it is no longer there. He raised his head and looked at the stairs leading to the second floor. At the corner, the poster that he attached was gone.

The cabinets and drawers are empty. Wen Cuilan has cleaned them all up.

Wen Jianing walked up to the second floor and saw the empty big bed in his bedroom. There are no longer plants on the balcony on the second floor, but from here, everything is still the same as before.

He turned his head and said to Wen Cuilan, who followed him: “Mrs. Wen, sell me the house. You don’t have to move the furniture. Please keep all the furniture. I like it here very much, and I will also take good care of this house. You are welcome to come back and have a look at it at any time.”

Perhaps it was his last sentence that touched Wen Cuilan. Wen Cuilan’s eyes were red, she said to Wen Jianing: “You call me Aunt Wen. I’m also very happy that it’s a child like you who bought a house. Like I said, the price isn’t an issue, I just hope you’re buying the house for pure purposes.”

Wen Jianing said: “I bought it to live on my own.”

Wen Cuilan nodded when she heard the words, she said, “That’s good, I hope so.”

In the end, Wen Cuilan offered a price of 15 million yuan. This price is actually already cheap, considering the location of the villa. But when it comes to the value of the house, this is not easy to say the same. This is the former residence of big movie star Wen Jianing. If someone pursues it, of course it should be of higher value, but at the same time This is also the place where Wen Jianing died suddenly. According to Chinese philosophy, his death is an unnatural death, which is considered very unlucky, so people who want to buy will hesitate.

The entertainment industry is a superstitious circle. Wen Jianing is probably the only one who will buy the house here without any qualm.

But 15 million is still too much for him. He can’t come up with so much money at a time.

After some consideration, Wen Cuilan promised that he could move in first and handle the ownership transfer after paying the rent.

Wen Jianing hesitated. He went to discuss with Wen Tinghuan to see if he could take out a loan to pay for the house all at once. Wen Tinghuan disagreed and said to him, “Why don’t you go and borrow some from the company?”

“It’s not appropriate,” Wen Jianing said, asking for a loan from a company is equivalent to asking Lu Jinlang for a loan, which he didn’t think was appropriate.

In fact, Lu Jinlang has already talked to him, but given his current relationship with Lu Jinlang, even if he really asks Lu Jinlang to borrow money, Lu Jinlang will also suffer. To put it bluntly, no matter what Wen Jianing said about the relationship between them, he still hoped to be on an equal footing with Lu Jinlang as much as possible in his heart.

The fact that he bought back Wen Jianing’s old house was quickly caught by the keen media, or maybe the media was already paying attention to this matter since Wen Cuilan released the news that the house is for sale.

He did not immediately tell Lu Jinlang about the purchase. Lu Jinlang knew about the news nearly a week later. He was eating at Lu’s house that day, when he flipped through a gossip magazine that his mother threw on the sofa and saw it.

He sat on the sofa and flipped through the magazine. His six-year-old nephew ran over and lay on his lap and asked, “Third Uncle, what are you looking at?”

This child is Lu Jinxin’s son, Tongtong.

Lu Jinxin was divorcing his wife, but his wife was unwilling. So did the elderly in the Lu family, so he dragged it down for a while. There’s no way to solve it for a while. When they eat at home, Lu Jinxin’s wife will still show up with her son.

Lu Jinlang didn’t answer him.

Instead, Lu Jinxin was intrigued by his son’s words. He walked over and saw the magazine in Lu Jinlang’s hand. He took it and asked Lu Jinlang, “Did you buy it for him?”

Lu Jinlang shook his head.

When he returned home after dinner, Lu Jinlang opened the door and heard Wen Jianing rummaging in the bedroom.

He had some wine in the evening and walked over to the bedroom door and asked, “Packing up to move?”

Wen Jianing was stunned. He just rummaged through the wardrobe for an attire that he planned to wear to the company tomorrow. After searching for it for a long time, he didn’t find it. He had to free up a lot of things in the cabinet and put it on the bed, but he didn’t expect Lu Jinlang to ask such a question.

Is he planning to move? He himself does not know. He and Lu Jinlang got along well, and did not quarrel about the values. No matter what their positioning for this relationship is, it’s strange to say he wants to move out for no reason.

But Lu Jinlang asked this, he probably has been waiting for him to move.

Wen Jianing turned to face Lu Jinlang. He said, “I have already discussed with Ms. Wen, and she promised to sell me the house.”

Lu Jinlang took off his coat as he walked into the room, “I see, I saw it in the magazine.”

After a short silence, Wen Jianing heard Lu Jinlang say, “Congratulations on getting what you want.”

He couldn’t tell if Lu Jinlang’s words carried some anger, because Lu Jinlang was still as gentle and polite as before. Perhaps Lu Jinlang felt unhappy that he had only learned about the purchase of a house through Gossip Weekly, and Wen Jianing didn’t take the initiative to be the first one to tell him.

Lu Jinlang looked at the clothes on a bed, stretched out his hands and rolled up his sleeves, and asked, “Do you need help?”

By now, Wen Jianing was feeling a little confused. He stood there for a while and reached for the suitcase on the top of the cabinet. It was a little higher but he could reach it on tiptoe.

Lu Jinlang walked behind him and reached out to help him take the suitcase.

Wen Jianing smelled the smell of wine on Lu Jinlang, and asked, “Have you been drinking?”

Lu Jinlang said: “I drank a few glasses of red wine with my eldest brother and second brother at home in the evening.”

Actually, he didn’t drink very much.

The two of them took down the suitcase together.

Lu Jinlang said, “I’ll get a towel and wipe it for you.” After that, he went to the bathroom.

As Wen Jianing sat down by the bed, he felt slightly overwhelmed for a while. But then he began to fold his clothes one by one.

In fact, it was only because of Lu Jinlang’s invitation that he moved in together. It seems that there is no guarantee or commitment.? Now that he wants to move, Lu Jinlang also lets him move. It seems that there is nothing wrong about that.

Lu Jinlang knelt on the ground to help Wen Jianing clean up the suitcase, and then opened it to help him put his clothes in one by one.

Wen Jianing suddenly had an unexplainable feeling, as if everything was just going well at first then one day, Lu Jinlang suddenly said he didn’t like him. He then really impatiently urged him to leave without lessening the impact at all. Although he had already made psychological preparations, he just didn’t expect that this day would come so soon.

He has so many clothes that he can’t fit in one suitcase.

“Just pack this much first.,” Lu Jinlang said, “You can come back later for the other stuff. Don’t worry.”

“Can we talk?” Wen Jianing said.

Lu Jinlang looked at him, “What do you want to say?”

Wen Jianing sat down by the bed, “Do you want to end it with me?”

Lu Jinlang did not immediately answer.

“Jinlang,” Wen Jianing called his name softly, “Am I a second Yan Ruowei to you?”

Lu Jinlang smiled gently at his words, “You are Ke Xinhang, not some other person.”

Wen Jianing said, “That’s probably what you said to Yan Ruowei as well.”

Lu Jinlang didn’t refute. He might have said something similar to Yan Ruowei, but he can’t remember it clearly.

“Forget it,” Wen Jianing said. He once vowed that he would not become the second Yan Ruowei, so why bother with Lu Jinlang now.

Lu Jinlang looked at him and suddenly came over to crush him on the bed and kissed his lips heavily.

The intense kiss seemed to harbour some anxiety and unspeakable emotion. Lu Jinlang settled his leg between Wen Jianing’s two legs, and with one hand pulled his pants.

Wen Jianing hugged him and responded to him, not mincing his enthusiasm in the slightest.

They kissed, hugged, and moved relentlessly.

At the last moment, Lu Jinlang slowed down, without hurting Wen Jianing.

Wen Jianing feels a little insatiable. It seems that there is no more legitimate and reasonable emotional entanglement between them other than making love. Since they originally came for this, they might as well do it once and for all.

When Wen Jianing woke up in bed feeling sore the next morning, he opened his eyes and saw a pair of little bears placed on the cabinet not far away, which Lu Jinlang brought back to him at Xu Rujing’s wedding. Since it belongs to him, he better take it with him when leaving.

In the morning, Wen Jianing called Wen Tinghuan and asked her to pick him up by car.

Lu Jinlang said he had to leave in the morning and didn’t stay to see him off.

When helping Wen Jianing carry things into the car, Wen Tinghuan said, “You guys are so efficient, he’s just waiting for you to buy the house so he can kick you out immediately, right?”

“I don’t think so,” said Wen Jianing.

Wen Tinghuan sighed, “You are moving away, but he won’t even show his face.”

Wen Jianing shook his head and said that he did not want to comment on it. He said, “Find a place for me to stay for two days first.”

Wen Tinghuan said strangely, “Weren’t you given all the keys to Wen Jianing’s house already?”

Wen Jianing said reluctantly, “For such a big house, I have to find someone to clean it first, and then prepare some necessary daily necessities. How can it be possible to move in immediately?”

Wen Tinghuan looked at him, “Lu Jinlang drove you out, huh?” Wen Tinghuan thought it was Wen Jianing who wanted to move. But seeing the house there was still not cleaned up, it seemed that it was really a sudden decision.

Wen Jianing didn’t want to answer this question. He planned to stay in the hotel for two days.

Wen Tinghuan said, “Forget it, I’ll find you a place to stay for a few days that can promise not to kick you out.”

Wen Jianing asked, “Where is it?”

Wen Tinghuan said: “Wen Lin’s place.”

Wen Jianing was surprised when he heard that. His first reaction was to refuse, because he felt inconvenient, but he didn’t dare to be too nervous. He just said, “It’s not good. Wenlin’s side of the place is too small. I used to go over to stay and give him too much trouble.”

“No worries,” Wen Tinghuan said, “The company helped him to re-rent a two-bedroom house. He now lives alone in a spacious house, and it is a house rented by the company. You don’t have to feel embarrassed.”

Wen Jianing suddenly asked, “Why doesn’t the company rent me a house?”

Wen Tinghuan said, “You already have a house, and it’s the mansion of Film Emperor Lu. It’s a good house that the company can’t even afford to rent. Wen Lin’s old house is going to be demolished, do you want to steal this place from him?”

Wen Jianing hasn’t been to the company for a long time since he injured his leg, and he didn’t have the opportunity to chat with Wen Lin. He didn’t even know Wen Lin’s current situation.

Wen Tinghuan said, “I’ll call Wen Lin. He will definitely welcome you openly, so don’t worry about it.”

If there is one bedroom for one person, he could lock the door when he takes a bath and goes to the toilet. Wen Jianing thought it’s not a big problem to live for two days. So he didn’t immediately stop Wen Tinghuan from contacting Wen Lin.

Let’s just go and check it out, he thought to himself.

Wen Lin was really pleased with Wen Jianing’s temporary stay for two days. He wished he could drive to pick him up in person.

“Mr. Popular,” Wen Tinghuan sighed with emotion evaluating Wen Jianing’s popularity.

Wen Lin and Yi Nan’s historical game adaptations have been filmed. They are now in post-production, and ready to start the promotion. Wen Lin is not busy these days, and writes songs at home when he is free.

Wen Jianing saw that Wen Lin’s new home was simple and tidy, neatly organized.

He said, “It’s very good.”

Wen Lin was a little embarrassed. “I don’t dare to buy too many things for the rented house. I also want to buy my own house.”

It seems that everyone already knows about Wen Jianing’s house purchase.

There is a vacant bedroom in Wen Lin’s place, and the lock of the bathroom door is also intact. He only needs to lock it from the inside to ensure privacy. Wen Jianing sees that Wen Lin’s character is pure, he is not too curious, and his personality is also gentle.

“Just for two days,” he said to Wen Lin.

Wen Lin smiled and said, “You are welcome to stay for as long as you want.”
