Chapter 146 Warmth is Dongfang Wan'er's person
Lu Wanning watched the unfolding scene silently, inwardly marveling at how entertaining this farce was. She hadn't expected the newly appointed Concubine Wen to be able to suppress Liu Qiqi. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chuckle aloud: "Hehe..."
Hearing Lu Wanning's laughter, Dongfang Zheng turned his head and asked, "Madam, what are you laughing at?"
Lu Wanning quickly suppressed her smile and replied, "It's nothing, let's eat!"
At this moment, Liu Qiqi was so angry she was about to explode, but she still tried her best to maintain a calm demeanor.
"Ahem... Wan Ning, you're back. It's good that you're back..." She turned to look at Dongfang Zheng!
"Zheng'er, now that Wan Ning is back, let's hand over the management of the household to Wan Ning!" Wang Yuxin was still thinking about her bird's nest soup!
"That's fine!" Dongfang Zheng felt it would be better if Lu Wanning were in charge of the household affairs, so that the family's meals could be improved!
"No need. I've come here today to tell everyone something: I'm getting a divorce from Dongfang Zheng!" After Lu Wanning finished speaking, the nanny took out the divorce papers.
"What? No way! Wan Ning, are you angry with Zheng'er? Zheng'er, quickly comfort Wan Ning!" Wang Yu said in a panic. She couldn't let Lu Wan Ning leave, otherwise how would she enjoy delicious food in the future?
Dongfang Zheng...
"I will not agree to a divorce, Lu Wanning. Or are you angry if I bring Wen Nuan into the manor?" Dongfang Zheng said with a sneer.
"Who gave you the nerve, Dongfang Zheng!" Lu Wanning was so angry at Dongfang Zheng's words that she almost laughed. She looked at Dongfang Zheng coldly, her eyes full of disdain and anger.
"Lu Wanning, you are utterly insolent!" Dongfang Zheng was humiliated in public by Lu Wanning, and his face turned extremely gloomy, especially in front of his two concubines, which made him feel even more ashamed. He glared at Lu Wanning through gritted teeth, his heart filled with rage.
Dongfang Zheng could no longer tolerate it. He raised his hand to slap Lu Wanning's face, wanting to teach this arrogant woman a lesson and let her know what power she was.
However, just as Dongfang Zheng was about to make a move, Dongfang Wan'er suddenly grabbed his hand. Her eyes were cold and sinister, sending chills down one's spine.
"Father, I advise you to put your hand down, otherwise I can't guarantee that your hand will stay on your body!" Dongfang Wan'er's voice was icy cold, carrying an irresistible authority.
Dongfang was startled by Dongfang Wan'er's gaze. His eyes widened as he stared at his daughter in disbelief. At that moment, he realized how unfamiliar he was with this daughter, as if he had never truly understood her.
"Wan'er, release your father!" Wang Yu shouted anxiously. She knew that if Dongfang Wan'er continued like this, things might get out of control. However, Dongfang Wan'er ignored Wang Yu's words. She gripped Dongfang Hong's hand tightly, her eyes firm and cold.
"Father, calling you father is an honor. I don't care how your concubines cause trouble in the mansion, but if you dare to harm my mother, you'll face the consequences!" Dongfang Wan'er's voice was cold and resolute. Her gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Dongfang Hong's heart. She was no longer that weak and incompetent woman, but a strong and decisive person.
"Sister, how could you grab Father's hand? Father is the head of the family; he can hit whoever he wants!" Dongfang Mingzhu shouted. Her eyes gleamed with excitement, as if she were looking forward to seeing Lu Wanning get beaten.
She was filled with jealousy and resentment towards Lu Wanning and hoped to see her punished. However, Dongfang Wan'er did not give her the chance. She suddenly flung her hand, pushing Dongfang Mingzhu several steps away.
"Hmph, you'd better stay away from me! Otherwise, I won't hesitate to teach you a lesson too!" Dongfang Wan'er's tone carried a hint of threat. Her gaze swept over Dongfang Mingzhu, sending a chill down her spine.
Oriental Pearl dared not speak again and could only stand silently to the side, her heart filled with anger!
"Mother, let's go..." Dongfang Wan'er said angrily, forcefully shaking off Dongfang Zheng's hand and pulling Lu Wanning away quickly.
"This is outrageous! Outrageous!" Dongfang Zheng roared furiously, "Divorce! Divorce! Lu Wanning, what's wrong with you? Why do you want a divorce?"
Dongfang was so angry that he couldn't eat anymore. He stood up, turned around, and stormed off.
"Lord Marquis!" Liu Qiqi called softly, but seeing that Dongfang Zheng had left without turning his head, she stopped calling out and sat down to continue eating.
The same goes for Wen Nuan; for her, nothing is more important than filling her stomach.
Even Dongfang Zheng's mother, Wang Yu, was only focused on eating at this moment.
Dongfang stormed out of the room, expecting Liu Qiqi or Wen Nuan to come after him and try to persuade him to stay. But when he reached the courtyard, he found that no one came out to stop him.
This infuriated him, and even Wen Nuan, who was usually gentle and considerate, didn't try to dissuade him this time.
"Mother, are you alright?" Dongfang Wan'er asked with concern.
"Wan'er, Mother is fine. I'm just a little confused. Why won't Dongfang Zheng agree to a divorce?" Lu Wanning frowned, her heart filled with puzzlement.
"That's simple, he definitely can't bear to give up the glory of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion!"
"No matter what, I must divorce him!"
"Yes, Mother, I support you!"
Dongfang Wan'er and Lu Wanning returned to their respective courtyards...
"Miss, Aunt Wen is here. She says she wants to see you!" Qiuqin came in to report.
"Hmm, let her in!" Dongfang Wan'er replied casually, cracking sunflower seeds.
"Young Miss!" Wen Nuan walked in and bowed to Dongfang Wan'er.
"Sit down, there's no need for such formalities between us!" Dongfang Wan'er smiled and gestured for Wen Nuan to sit down.
Wen Nuan didn't move; instead, she knelt down.
"Young Miss, thank you so much for saving my father. And thank you for guiding me and showing me who our enemy is!" Wen Nuan said gratefully, tears streaming down her face.
"What are you doing? Get up! I saved your father for a reason. He was wronged, and I certainly wouldn't stand by and watch an innocent person be wronged. However, you'll have to avenge yourself!" Dongfang Wan'er said, looking at Wen Nuan kneeling on the ground.
"I know, Miss, don't worry!" A hint of hatred flashed in Wen Nuan's eyes.
It turns out that Wen Nuan's father was originally a local official, but he suffered an injustice because of Dongfang Zheng. Her mother and younger brother had both passed away, and only Wen Nuan's father survived, all thanks to Dongfang Wan'er!
In fact, the reason why Dongfang Wan'er did this was entirely because she wanted to give Dongfang Zheng something to do... She deliberately arranged for Wen Nuan to meet Dongfang Zheng, hoping to use this opportunity to help Wen Nuan get revenge.
