Abused Female Lead And Beautiful Villainess (Quick Transmigration)

Chapter 17. Marriage? The Car Accident Kind (2)



After feeding Shen Wan, Wen Yingling asked expressionlessly, “Do you want water?”

“Yes, please,” Shen Wan, lying in bed, quickly replied. Wen Yingling left the room.

Soon, Wen Yingling returned with a paper cup. She placed one end of a long straw into the cup and brought the other end to Shen Wan’s lips.

To avoid another questioning of her chewing and swallowing abilities, Shen Wan promptly bit the straw and quickly drank the warm water.

She wanted to engage Wen Yingling in conversation, but the ice beauty’s aloof demeanor showed no interest in an injured amnesiac. She simply sat nearby, holding a book and reading silently.

“188, this lady’s water is warm, but she’s so cold.”

[188: “That’s just her character. She’s been consistent throughout. Bringing you food and water is already very polite of her.”]

188 secretly observed that his idle host didn’t seem to have those kinds of thoughts about this ice beauty.

He felt a bit uneasy that his host suddenly wasn’t pursuing women.

Not long after, Wen Yingting arrived.

“Lingling, did you call a doctor to check on Wan Wan?”

Wen Yingling looked up, her tone flat. “No.”

Wen Yingting: “……”

“Why didn’t you call a doctor to check her condition and find out what caused Wan Wan’s memory loss?” Wen Yingting, noticing Wen Yingling’s increasingly cold gaze, like a popsicle just taken from the freezer, quickly smiled and changed his words. “Lingling, I mean, next time something like this happens, it’s best to have a doctor come. I’m not blaming you at all. Since Wan Wan has lost her memory, it must be due to a head injury. It’s better to have a doctor examine her to prevent any other issues.”

Wen Yingling’s gaze returned to its usual indifference, the chill dissipating. She responded with a simple, “Mm.” She lowered her head to continue reading, then looked up as if remembering something. “She can eat and drink, talks a lot, hasn’t slept, and is very energetic. She kept staring at me. Except for being a bit disabled, she seems very healthy.”

“Wan Wan has lost her memory, so she might be curious about her surroundings.”

Wen Yingling nodded. “Mm, I understand. Like a newborn baby with no memory of this world, ignorant yet curious.”

Shen Wan: “……” Is there such a big baby?!

Wen Yingting called for a doctor, who thoroughly examined Shen Wan and stated that her temporary memory loss was likely due to the impact on her head during the car accident. It should recover over time, and having familiar people around to remind her would speed up the process.

After the doctor left, Wen Yingting looked at Shen Wan seriously and asked, “Do you remember me?”

“No, I don’t,” Shen Wan shook her head.

Wen Yingting then asked, “Do you remember Lin Ming?”

“Who’s Lin Ming?” Shen Wan looked at Wen Yingting with confusion. “What’s my relationship with him? And what’s our relationship?”

Wen Yingting sighed. He had no idea that Shen Wan’s car accident was actually deliberately caused by Lin Ming.

“Lin Ming is your husband,” he was about to continue, saying that their families were old friends and that she loved Lin Ming deeply. But suddenly, he thought of the woman he secretly loved, Xia Xinzhi, who was also his first love. Looking at Shen Wan’s confused expression, he inexplicably changed his words, “Although you’re married, it was arranged by your parents. Simply put, there’s no real affection between you.”

“If there’s no affection, why get married?” Shen Wan inquired.

Wen Yingting said softly, “It was the elders’ decision. Hard to refuse.”

Shen Wan thought: What utter nonsense, you scumbag Wen!

It was actually Lin Ming’s father who had his eye on the Shen family. She had lost both parents as a child and now only had an elderly grandfather. In the future, the entire Shen family would fall to her. With their marriage, wouldn’t the Shen family fall into the Lin family’s hands?

Yet this Lin Ming had a first love. She came from an ordinary background but was very beautiful and adored by men. Even rich young masters like Lin Ming and Wen Yingting couldn’t escape her charm.

Lin Ming openly liked her, while Wen Yingting secretly pined for her, occasionally playing the role of a gentle supporting character, offering warmth and comfort.

The original Shen Wan had liked Lin Ming very much, knowing since childhood that they would marry, her heart full of him. Lin Ming didn’t like her, treating her as a sister and often avoiding her.

After graduating from university, under pressure from Lin Ming’s parents, he reluctantly married the original Shen Wan. They began a marriage in name only, and the original Shen Wan gradually realized something was amiss, eventually discovering that Lin Ming loved someone else.

Lin Ming was not at all flustered, calmly telling her, “There’s no affection between us. If my mother hadn’t threatened suicide, I wouldn’t have married you. Now you’re satisfied, my parents are satisfied, so from now on, we’ll live separate lives. You do your thing, I’ll do mine.”

Thereafter, Lin Ming rarely came home, and they seldom interacted.

Each time her grandfather asked, to avoid upsetting him, the original Shen Wan had to lie, saying she and Lin Ming were getting along well.

Later, Xia Xinzhi, unsatisfied with being Lin Ming’s mistress, wanted to marry him. She even said she wasn’t after his family background and would be happy living an ordinary life with him if he left the Lin family. Lin Ming was moved, believing he couldn’t let down a woman so devoted to him. After much deliberation, he orchestrated the car accident a few days ago.

“If we’re married, why isn’t he here at the hospital?” Shen Wan looked at Wen Yingting. “So there really is no affection?”

“None.” Wen Yingting, seeing her pitiful look, felt reluctant, but for the sake of his loved one’s happiness, he had to deceive her. As long as Lin Ming divorced her and could be happily together with Xinzhi, he was willing to take care of Shen Wan for life.

Shen Wan thought: Dream on!

“I’ll call Lin Ming to inform him.”

Wen Yingting turned and left the room to make the call.

“If there’s no affection, why not divorce?” Shen Wan muttered quietly, lying in bed. “Isn’t this just mutual torture?”

“You’re considering divorce?”

Wen Yingling’s icy voice rang out. It was hard to imagine that this woman, who had been so fixated on Lin Ming, her mind filled with nothing but lovey-dovey nonsense, would consider divorce.

She had always thought this woman was an idiot.

“Is that not allowed?”

Wen Yingling gave her a cold glance, her gaze now less disdainful. “It’s your marriage, your decision. Divorce if you want.”

“Do I have any other relatives?”

“You have a grandfather. Wen Yingting said his health is poor, so he hasn’t been informed about your situation yet.”

Shen Wan blinked her eyes. “What’s your name?”

“Wen Yingling.”

Their conversation continued with pauses between each sentence. Wen Yingling remained cold and indifferent, completely unable to understand why this foolish woman kept blinking her eyes and looking so excited.

Perhaps her brain was damaged in the accident.

Shen Wan noticed a hint of disdain in Wen Yingling’s eyes and felt a bit dejected.

“188, do I look stupid?”

[188: “No, you don’t.”]

“Then why does the ice beauty look at me like I’m an idiot? That disdainful gaze makes me worry she might kick me out the window.”

[188: “Wan Wan, that must be your imagination. The ice beauty might be cold, but she wouldn’t do such a crude thing.”]

188 inwardly thought: You’re grinning at her like an idiot, of course she thinks you’re stupid.

“Yingling.”

“Speak.”

So cold.

“Are we friends now?”

Wen Yingling paused briefly, then denied it. “No.”

Shen Wan: “……” Not playing along.

“Then at least we’re acquaintances, right?”

Wen Yingling nodded without hesitation.

“When you see injustice, you draw your sword to help. Yingling, I have something I’d like your help with.” Shen Wan looked at Wen Yingling pleadingly. “Yingling, you’re beautiful and kind-hearted. Surely you won’t have the heart to refuse me, right?”

“What is it?” Wen Yingling remained unmoved, not falling for it.

“I want to get divorced, but I’ve forgotten so many things and people. I don’t know anyone else, and you’re the first person I saw when I woke up, so I can only turn to you for help.” Shen Wan spoke pitifully. “I can only trust you now.”

“Do humans also have imprinting behavior?” Wen Yingling fell into thought, glancing at Shen Wan.

She didn’t know that Shen Wan was inwardly ranting. What nonsense about imprinting? She certainly didn’t want to call the first person she saw “mama.”

“188, the ice beauty’s thought process is too erratic. I can’t keep up. I’m really afraid she’ll look at me coldly and say, ‘I’m not your mother.'”

188: “……” Nor your father.

“Wen Yingting can help you with the divorce.”

Shen Wan said softly, “I don’t trust him. Yingling, I feel like he was lying to me earlier. His eyes were shifty, and his expression was complicated. He’s been on the phone for so long and hasn’t come back. And why did he have to go outside to call my nominal husband instead of doing it in front of me?”

“Yingling, when I first saw you, I felt you were beautiful and kind-hearted, a good girl.”

Wen Yingling, being praised, felt something was odd.

“Yingling, is my family wealthy?”

Thrown by this sudden change of topic, Wen Yingling paused briefly before answering, “Very wealthy.”

“I’m afraid they might team up to cheat me during the divorce. What if they try to swindle my money?”

Wen Yingling thought for a moment and realized it was indeed possible. Wasn’t Lin Ming’s father coveting the Shen family’s assets?

“Shen Wan, I’m Wen Yingting’s sister. Aren’t you afraid I might betray you?” Wen Yingling looked at Shen Wan as if she were an idiot, seemingly saying, “You fool, you’ve trusted the wrong person.”

Shen Wan quickly shook her head. “Yingling, you’re like a snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain, noble and pure. You’re you, and Wen Yingting is Wen Yingting. You may not speak nicely and you seem to despise me, but I trust you! You definitely won’t betray me.”

“What if I do?”

“Then I’ll accept my bad luck.”

“Fine, I’ll help you.”

Wen Yingling’s cool gaze fell on Shen Wan’s face. She approached and leaned in slightly, her icy voice penetrating Shen Wan’s ears. “Don’t regret your choice today when you regain your memory.”

Shen Wan: “188, I feel like she’s conducting a very interesting experiment, and I’m the test subject. What should I do?”

[188: “Play it by ear. Don’t you have an ultimate move?”]

Shen Wan: “What ultimate move?”

[188: “Your charm.”]

Shen Wan: “……”

Where was the 188 who was supposed to stop her from pursuing women?
