The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 714 - 190 Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er Call Off Their Engagement

Ning Yan’er never imagined that she would bump into Ning Wan in such a place, someone she thought would never appear in her and Mo Han’s world again, while she was just visiting a friend at the hospital.

It had been a few years since she and Ning Wan had seen each other. But aside from looking a bit pale and even slightly thinner, Ning Wan in front of her hadn’t changed much.

Besides, she had lost her youthful features, yet it seemed to have added a touch of mature charm instead.

It was a natural aura that didn’t require any deliberate display.

Ever since Ning Wan’s beauty began to bloom, Ning Yan’er had been very clear about one thing: Ning Wan was beautiful, several times more so than her.

Now, standing here, even in a Chanel suit with delicate makeup, she felt as if she fell short in presence compared to Ning Wan in her hospital gown.

Ning Wan had no intention of provoking Ning Yan’er; she wanted to extricate herself from their world and for Ning Yan’er and Xi Mohan to disappear from her life.

But sometimes, the more you want to avoid someone, the more likely you are to encounter them, just like now...

When Ning Yan’er called out her name, Ning Wan turned her head and slightly furrowed her brows, but her manners remained, and even with dislike, she managed a smile and responded directly, "What a coincidence to run into Eldest Lady Ning here."

This was damn coincidental indeed.

The caretaker recognized Ning Yan’er immediately upon seeing her, the Eldest Daughter of the Ning Family.

After all, lately, Ning Yan’er had been frequently making headlines in entertainment news.

Whether it was Ning Yan’er’s potential takeover of the Ning Group or her public appearances for the sake of media exposure, it was all the same.

As for Ning Wan, the caretaker wasn’t very familiar with her, knowing only that she was a close friend of the lady she had been asked to take care of. The caretaker had seen Xi Mohan once or twice, but it was always at night, and with his formidable presence that could freeze someone in minutes, she didn’t dare to pay too much attention to him.

The caretaker in her thirties was also a mother. Taking care of Ning Wan was very easy for them because she was good-natured and even-tempered. Usually, if nothing needed to be done, she would tell them to go home and only come back to prepare meals at meal times.

"Miss, shall we head back to the ward now?" Perhaps sensing Ning Wan’s slight displeasure at Ning Yan’er’s appearance, the caretaker asked cautiously.

Ning Wan paused, then smiled and said, "It’s fine, we can stay here. After all, it’s not often we run into an old friend we haven’t seen for many years, and we should have a good chat."

The caretaker, "..." But looking at Eldest Lady Ning, it seems like she has no intention of having a good chat with you.

Ning Yan’er was holding a clutch, which was now somewhat deformed from her tight grip, as she stepped towards Ning Wan in her high heels, each step firm and stable. Her eyes, looking straight at Ning Wan, carried an oppressive air.

She stopped two or three steps away from Ning Wan and narrowed her eyes slightly at the woman in front of her, suddenly feeling unable to reconcile the Ning Wan she remembered with the one before her.

Clenching her teeth, she suppressed the unstable emotions that surged from encountering Ning Wan, and finally spoke, "Ning Wan, weren’t you supposed to have left An City? How come you are here?"

She had been unable to find Ning Wan and thought that she had left An City, never to return, but she hadn’t expected to see her here.

Looking at Ning Wan in front of her, Ning Yan’er felt as if she was constantly being watched by this woman, vying with her for Xi Mohan.

Yet Ning Wan remained composed, a thin blanket covering her knees, casually placed by the caregiver earlier. She smoothed it out with a pull of her hand before looking at Ning Yan’er and spoke, "I was born in An City, I’ve grown up in An City, why can’t I appear in An City? An City isn’t under Eldest Lady Ning’s control."

The way Ning Wan said this, she originally didn’t want her tone to seem too confrontational, but given the tone Ning Yan’er used with her, she felt no need to hold back and thus spoke with a hint of sarcasm.

Ning Yan’er’s face darkened, and she clenched her teeth, "Ning Wan, watch your language."

Upon hearing this, Ning Wan laughed, "Ning Yan’er, are you joking with me? What gives you the right to demand that from me?"

Why should Ning Yan’er be the only one to mock and scorn her, while she can’t respond in kind?

Don’t be so ridiculous, okay?

"You..." Ning Yan’er, for a moment, couldn’t find the words to respond, her expression becoming extremely gloomy, and her hands by her side clenched into fists, her face almost twisted.

"Ning Wan, your health hasn’t fully recovered, why are you here?" At that moment, a clear voice came from behind.

Ning Yan’er stiffened, turning her head to look at the man striding toward them, almost unconsciously muttering those two words, "Mo Han..."

Xi Mohan was holding a bag of pastries, dressed in his customary white shirt and black trousers, with his usual expressionless face. His indifferent gaze fell on Ning Yan’er’s face, then shifted to Ning Wan sitting in the wheelchair, his brows almost involuntarily furrowing.

Seeing Xi Mohan arrive, Ning Wan’s face also sank, but she said nothing.

Xi Mohan walked straight up to Ning Wan’s side, passing by Ning Yan’er without a second glance. He handed the bag to the caregiver and ordered indifferently, "Heat this up in the microwave."

The caregiver instantly recognized Xi Mohan and nodded hurriedly, but before she left, her gaze fell on Ning Wan, and she hesitated as if wanting to say something.

Xi Mohan, seeing her concern, said, "I’ll take her back to her room later."

Ning Yan’er watched all this unfold, her face turning pale, and she spoke in disbelief, "Mo Han, did you call off our engagement because of Ning Wan?"

Hearing Ning Yan’er’s words, Ning Wan raised her head in disbelief to look at the man in front of her, her eyes filled with surprise, her lips trembling slightly, yet she said nothing.

Xi Mohan and Ning Yan’er... They called off their engagement?

Holy shit, what happened? How come she was unconscious for just a few days, and these two already reached the point of breaking off their engagement?

Could it be that she missed some significant event?
