She subconsciously held her breath, then slowly adjusted her breathing. Her slender fingers on the armrest of the chair subconsciously gripped the armrest tightly. Although she was still pretending to be calm, her tone was much calmer. "CEO Wen, you must be joking. How would I dare to overthink? On the other hand, CEO Wen, if you don't mean anything by your words and actions, could it be that CEO Wen has always been this frivolous? "
Frivolous?
Wen Han-woo raised his eyebrows, but he didn't loosen his grip on her jaw. His deep eyes swirled, and his tone was slightly sarcastic, like a yuppie. "You think I'm frivolous? Miss Tong, you probably don't know much about men, right? Do you know how frivolous a man can be? "
Xinwan was speechless.
"You've been Wen Han-woo's wife for six years, but you've never tasted a man. Should I not have such high expectations for you?"
Xinwan felt that Wen Han-woo wasn't like what the magazine reports had described him to be — deep, reserved, serious, and charismatic.
No matter how subtle his words were, Xinwan couldn't possibly not understand. He was obviously insulting her!
And his insults were laced with color!
Had she never eaten pork before? Had she never seen a pig run before?
Xinwan, who was stubborn by nature, couldn't take this kind of tone. Moreover, the person was Wen Han-woo. She was already angry from embarrassment, and she subconsciously straightened her neck and retorted, "Of course! How can I compare to you, CEO Wen, who has seen countless people? That's why people say that clothes are all beasts. This saying isn't false. CEO Wen, you didn't mind at all to give me a positive example. Just as CEO Wen said just now, my mouth can only attack people verbally. But your mouth, on the other hand, can really 'show off its skills' sometimes! "
Xinwan finished speaking in one breath. Her face was still calm, but she couldn't help but feel a little strange.
This kind of rebuttal was as if it was hurtful. She was not an open-minded woman and felt that the two of them were getting further and further away from each other.
Wen Han-woo's handsome face, which originally had a joking expression, gradually darkened, and his deep eyes were gradually stained with malice. Xinwan actually still had some reservations in her heart. She thought about it in hindsight. Today, she wasn't here to talk. Her purpose was only to get a divorce — to divorce in the shortest time possible without too much loss to the Family Jiang.
But now.
"President Wen, actually, I …"
"Hanwoo —"
Xinwan was thinking about whether she should consider the big picture and give in first. Suddenly, the heavy door of the CEO's office creaked open. Someone pushed the door from outside and a soft female voice interrupted somewhat stiffly.
Both of them were stunned. Wen Han-woo was the first to react. His sharp brows suddenly furrowed slightly. He turned his body and looked at the woman standing at the door. There was a slight impatience in his eyes, but he quickly let go of Xinwan.
Xinwan naturally saw the woman standing at the door. Her clear eyes flickered.
— Li Ruoying.
She recognized this woman because she was the one who Wen Han-woo "protected" the best among the women who came and went around him.
Of course, in Xinwan's understanding, Li Ruoying was nothing more than Wen Han-woo's "lover". But what about their relationship? Was it because of her interference in the past that the two of them could only secretly have an affair or something like that? She didn't know and didn't want to know.
The woman at the door looked very delicate. When Xinwan was abroad, she would occasionally see Wen Han-woo's gossip reports. Li Ruoying also appeared in gossip magazines. To be honest, she was more gentle and pleasant in person than on camera.
"Sorry, I didn't know you guys …"
Li Ruoying's expression was even stiffer than her tone. Her entire face was deathly pale. She subconsciously looked at Xin Wan. In her large eyes, there was an obvious grievance. She tried very hard to hide it, but it gave people a feeling that she was trying to cover it up.
"Hanwoo, I saw that your secretary wasn't outside, so I pushed the door open and came in."
Wen Han-woo walked around the office desk and sat directly on the big office chair. The man elegantly crossed his long legs. The unhappy expression on his exquisite features had faded. But the man pursed his sexy thin lips and didn't say a word. In an instant, the huge office turned into a laughable "triangle".
Xinwan didn't feel jealous as the so-called "first wife" seeing her "husband" with another woman. But she did feel a little uncomfortable.
She coughed lightly and stood up. She thought that the divorce couldn't be discussed today. There was no point in just the three of them staring at each other. Moreover, although Wen Han-woo didn't say anything, it was more or less the same as asking her to leave. She might as well give herself a way out.
"CEO Wen, I've said what I wanted to say. Since you have a guest, I won't disturb you. If it's convenient for you, I'll call you again tonight."
"It's not convenient for me."
Wen Han-woo's slender fingers tapped lightly on the table. His voice was flat but a little sharp. "I usually don't pick up calls from strangers at night. If Miss Tong insists on doing this, then you can contact my lawyer directly."
Xinwan obviously wanted to do her best to minimize the Family Jiang's loss. But from the current situation, if she continued to stand there and interfere with their time, she would only be treated with more disdain.
She was very tactful and didn't say anything more. She elegantly turned around and walked towards the main door.
Wen Han-woo's tapping on the table suddenly stopped. His deep eyes instinctively followed the slender and straight figure in front of him. He watched as she walked past Li Ruoying and out of the office without looking back.
His thoughts actually moved along with it.
"Why are you here all of a sudden?"
Wen Han-woo asked in a deep voice the moment Xinwan left. It was hard to tell if he was happy or angry from his tone. Li Ruoying sighed softly. She walked forward and sat across from him. She placed her bag on the large office desk and looked at Wen Han-woo seriously. "Am I seeing things? Hanwoo, was that Tong Xinwan? "
"You're right."
Wen Han-woo didn't even raise his head. He held an expensive fountain pen in his hand and used it skillfully. It was as though he was deliberately trying to prove that Tong Xinwan's appearance and actions meant nothing to him. To him, she was probably just an invisible person.
"When did she come back?"
Li Ruoying looked very surprised. She probably saw that Wen Han-woo didn't raise his head to look at her. She frowned slightly and stood up. She walked around the large office desk and walked over. "Hanwoo, are you really unhappy? I really didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know she was here. I thought … "
"Ruoying."
Wen Han-woo frowned and put down the fountain pen in his hand. He still didn't raise his head, but he reached out his long fingers to gently pinch the bridge of his nose. He didn't know why, but he felt an indescribable heat in his chest that filled every nerve in his body. "I'm not unhappy. But if you come over in the future, you still have to knock first."
Li Ruoying wasn't afraid that Wen Han-woo would really get angry. Like he said, he wouldn't really get angry with her.
She had known him for almost 20 years, so they could be considered childhood sweethearts. Although the two of them hadn't completely broken through the last layer of window paper, whenever the two of them went out for a meal or attended an event and were photographed, the reporters and media would write ambiguous reports. As the "male lead," Wen Han-woo had never denied anything.
Some feelings had been built between the two of them for so many years. Even though he already had a legal wife, there were no feelings between him and that Tong Xinwan.
When she came in and suddenly saw Xinwan, she was really … very surprised.
But now, seeing Wen Han-woo's expression, she felt relieved.
So what if she was back? It had already been six years. What was supposed to happen didn't happen. Now, she was still by Hanwoo's side. Naturally, nothing would happen between them.
"I know. Next time I come in, I'll knock first. But Hanwoo, you said a week ago that you wanted to have a meal with me. Did you forget?"
Wen Han-woo paused in his action of pinching the bridge of his nose. His deep gaze seemed to stare at the main entrance of his office. After a moment, he suddenly stood up and said straightforwardly, "I'll take you there now."
…
Just as Xinwan got into the car, her phone rang.
She started the engine with one hand and held the steering wheel with the other. She reached for the phone on the dashboard. The caller ID displayed on the screen was from overseas. The woman's brows instantly softened.
"Hello."
"Baby, you've been in City B for two days. Why hasn't there been any news at all?"
Xinwan frowned. There were traces of a smile on her soft red lips. "Qin Fangang, you're using Xiao Yu's call to trick me again. Where's my son? Get him to answer the call. "
"Baby, you're so heartless. How many days have you not seen me? You're only thinking about your son and not me? "
The deep male voice on the other end of the phone was rich and magnetic. There was a hint of laziness in his casual tone. Xinwan turned the steering wheel and teased, "Young Master Qin, do you still need me to think about you? There are so many women out there who miss you! Hurry up and give the phone to my son! Where's Xiao Yu? "
"Sigh, a woman's heart is the most vicious! Xiao Yu happened to go out to buy milk. I knew that you would only answer your son's call immediately, so I used his phone to call you to relieve my pain of missing you … "
