Wen Han-woo felt as if there was a fly stuck in his throat. He couldn't swallow it or spit it out. It was especially uncomfortable.
"I've already contacted the lawyer. I'll get the lawyer to hand the divorce agreement to Young Master Wen. If there's no problem, you can just sign it when the time comes."
Wen Han-woo narrowed his sharp eyes and stared straight at Xinwan.
He didn't make a sound. Xinwan raised her neck and looked at him in the eye. Under the shroud of the night, the two of them stared at each other. The man's gaze was too deep, but his exquisite facial features were calm. It was impossible to read his emotions.
Xinwan's heart faintly felt uneasy. It wasn't that she was afraid that he wouldn't agree to the divorce. Wen Han-woo probably also wanted to divorce her, but she didn't know why she felt that his gaze at that moment was a little aggressive.
"What do you think Family Wen is?"
The long silence made Xinwan a little impatient. Her red lips moved slightly. Just as she was about to speak, Wen Han-woo was one step ahead of her. His deep male voice seemed to be tainted with the charm of the night. Although his words were clearly stern, they carried a different kind of sexiness.
His tall body took a step closer to Xinwan. His unparalleled handsome face was magnified in front of Xinwan's eyes. She couldn't help but feel her heartbeat quicken. Even her breathing became weak.
"You want to marry me willingly because you want to make your mother a mistress through me, Wen Han-woo. Now that the time is right, you want to divorce me?"
"Tong Xinwan, the adjective 'burning the bridge after crossing the river' is especially apt to describe you! If you want to divorce me, you should go back and ask your father how many projects in your Family Jiang are related to Family Wen. This marriage, can you afford to divorce? "
"Wen Han-woo!"
Xinwan's body swayed. He was too close to her, and with every word he said, he deliberately moved closer. The strong masculine scent from his body penetrated her nose, causing her breathing to become chaotic. "You, stay away from me!"
Stay. Away. From. Me.
Young Master Wen, who had lived like a prince since he was young, had never heard any woman tell him — "You, stay away from me."
His sharp black eyes reflected a sharp light. His hand, which was originally in his trouser pocket, instinctively reached out. In an instant, he didn't even realize that he had already pinched the woman in front of him.
Xinwan held her breath. She never thought that Wen Han-woo would actually reach out and touch her. His strength was a little too strong, causing her to unconsciously furrow her brows and let out a soft cry.
Wen Han-woo turned a deaf ear to her, his tall body pressing forward. Xinwan instinctively retreated. There was a tree behind her, and after taking two steps back, her soft body happened to be pressed against the tree trunk.
"Wen Han-woo."
Xinwan's voice was clearly starting to become unstable. Her breathing was very weak, and her delicate brows were constantly furrowed. Her hands were pressed against the tree trunk, and she didn't dare to move. "What are you doing? Let go! "
"What am I doing?"
Wen Han-woo's sexy lips moved slightly, and the corner of his lips curled into a cold smile. Even though the arc was very sinister, it still gave people a fatal sense of attraction. His voice was low, and it seemed to be tainted with darkness. Clearly, it was close to Xinwan's ear, but the words that came out of his mouth only made her tremble. "Tell me, what am I doing? Don't pretend to be a chaste woman in front of me. Others don't know what kind of woman Tong Xinwan is, but do you think I don't know? Think about it, what kind of goal did you have when you married me six years ago? In these six years, I didn't want to touch you, but don't forget that you're Wen Han-woo's wife in name. Even if I really did touch you, it's your duty, understand? "
Duty?
Xinwan had stayed abroad for six years, and in addition to her unrestrained personality, Wen Han-woo's vile tone was simply too much for her.
Marriage was indeed her choice, but why did he have to belittle himself in front of her again and again, and put Wen Han-woo on a pedestal?
To put it bluntly, the marriage between Family Wen and Family Jiang did not benefit Wen Han-woo in the slightest?
Xinwan bit her lips and suddenly reached out. "Pa!" She slapped away Wen Han-woo's hand that was pinching her chin. The man probably didn't expect her to suddenly do that, and he only felt a slight pain on the back of his hand. In the next second, a pair of small hands were already on his chest, and he was caught off guard and stumbled.
Wen Han-woo took two steps back, and a trace of disbelief flashed across his deep eyes as he looked at Xinwan.
"Then why are you pretending to be virtuous? To put it bluntly, marriage is consensual. Who do you think you are, Wen Han-woo? If you weren't willing, six years ago, would someone have held a knife to your neck and forced you to marry me, a hypocritical woman who used you, and now wants to burn the bridge after crossing it? "
"Tong Xinwan!"
Wen Han-woo really didn't expect this woman to be so eloquent. Ever since he was sensible, everyone around him had flattered him. Now that he was being rebutted by a woman he despised from head to toe, he only felt like the fly in his throat was alive and kicking.
However, before he could act up, another voice interrupted from behind. "Hanwoo? This is Xinwan? "
The two of them were stunned. Wen Han-woo's hands were still on Xinwan's sides, and the man's muscular body was pressing her against a thick tree trunk. Because it was night time, the lighting wasn't very good, and the light from the garden path shone on the two of them, setting off an incomparably amorous atmosphere.
At least, to the onlookers, Wen Han-woo seemed to be pressing Xinwan against the tree trunk urgently, preparing to do something.
When Shen Lingxiu staggered out, this was the scene she saw.
She was Wen Han-woo's grandmother, and also the person with the highest status in Family Wen. She was the one who suggested the gathering at the Family Wen mansion on the 15th of every month. She had a very strong sense of family. After her husband passed away, the younger generation of Family Wen would often have some conflicts due to some business decisions. Shen Lingxiu believed that the most important thing in a family was the bloodline, so she arranged for the Family Wen to have a gathering every month. In her opinion, this was a way to bond.
Actually, Wen Han-woo and Xinwan's marriage was six years ago. Wen Han-woo's grandfather had insisted on it, but Shen Lingxiu didn't dislike Xinwan. In addition, all these years, the people of Family Jiang had been polite to Family Wen, and the two families got along well. For the past two years, Shen Lingxiu had often asked when Xinwan would come back.
She didn't expect that she would really come back, and that she would see such a "fiery" scene the moment she came back.
"Grandma, why did you come out?" Wen Han-woo's deep voice carried a hint of annoyance.
"You guys are getting intimate, but Grandma's eyes and ears are clear."
Shen Lingxiu narrowed her eyes and smiled. Wen Han-woo frowned and immediately let go of Xinwan. His thin lips moved as if he wanted to explain something, but unexpectedly, from the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Xinwan hurriedly straightening her body and discreetly shifting her body to the side.
His gaze instantly darkened, and the words that were at the tip of his tongue were automatically swallowed back down.
She was really avoiding him like the plague. Was she really coming back to get a divorce? Or was she collaborating with the people of Family Jiang to put on a show?
Wen Han-woo slowly stuffed his hands into the pockets of his suit pants. Being a meticulous person, he only stood to the side and didn't make a sound.
"Grandma, hello. I'm sorry, I came back too suddenly and didn't have time to say hello to you." Xinwan reached out to stroke the loose strands of hair around her ears and stabilized her emotions.
"It's good that you're back!"
Shen Lingxiu was all smiles and didn't put on airs at all. "Xinwan, I've been waiting for you for so many years. Previously, your parents kept saying that you still haven't finished your studies abroad. You've been gone for six years. Girl, you're finally back. A huge burden has been lifted from my heart."
Xinwan reached out to touch her nose. Actually, she felt a little awkward. It wasn't that she was unfamiliar with them, but she felt that she had come back to get a divorce. Now that they were so friendly, how was she going to open the topic later?
"Grandma, I …"
Before Xinwan could finish her hesitant words, an unexpected voice suddenly interrupted from behind. "Xinwan? Is that Xinwan? "
It seemed that almost everyone had arrived.
Jiang Youyi and Tong Qing Meng heard the conversation and came out as well. They were wondering who had come, but it turned out to be their daughter!
The most surprised was naturally Tong Qing Meng. She let go of her husband's wrist and stumbled forward. "Xinwan, daughter, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me that you were coming back? "
"I just arrived two hours ago."
Xinwan's voice was very calm. She forced a smile at her mother and her gaze fell on Jiang Youyi, who was not far away. The latter looked at her with a surprised expression. Xinwan merely smiled and greeted, "Dad."
"Why didn't you tell me that you were coming back?" Jiang Youyi nodded.
"Uh huh. I came back to settle some matters. After that, I went back, so I …"
Xinwan frowned as she weighed the pros and cons in her heart. Most of the people who were supposed to be present had arrived. Could she bring up the matter of the divorce? However, before she could bring up the topic, Shen Lingxiu beat her to it and said, "What? Xinwan, you're still leaving even though you're back? "
Naturally, she disagreed. "Xinwan, you're not getting any younger this year, and neither is Hanwoo. You've been married for so many years, but you've always been living separately. Previously, you were separated for your studies. Now, it's about time, isn't it? You still want to leave? That's not right of you! "
"Grandma, I …"
There were indeed many Family Wen guests. Xinwan was interrupted several times in the middle of her speech, and this time was no exception. At this moment, Family Wen and Mr. and Mrs. Wen, who were also Wen Han-woo's parents, Wen Haoxuan and Han Eemo, appeared from the main entrance. However, no matter who it was that came out of the door, when they saw Xinwan standing there, their faces were filled with shock.
"Xinwan? Xinwan is back? "
