Tai Li and Wen Rou's engagement is indeed with ulterior motives, but Wen Rou is unaware!
The reason Wen Rou got engaged to Tai Li is because she likes him! Moreover, her affection for Tai Li surpasses that for Ye Chen!
If that's the case, why would Ye Chen ruin their engagement?
"Ye Chen, are you really going to give up on Wen Rou?" Qin Lan said incredulously.
"What's wrong?" Ye Chen replied.
"Wen Rou likes you so much, and you're just going to let her go like that?" Qin Lan said.
"How do you know she likes me?" Ye Chen asked.
"She just likes you, not only I know it, everyone knows!" Qin Lan said.
Ye Chen's feelings for Wen Rou became obvious, and Wen Rou's deep affection for Ye Chen was an open secret.
"If she truly liked me, would she get engaged to someone else?" Ye Chen said in a deep voice. "As you all said, Tai Li pursued Wen Rou without using any underhanded means!"
"Which means Wen Rou willingly got engaged to Tai Li without any interference!"
