In the dimly lit car, the man's exquisite facial features seemed to have concealed most of his emotions. That pair of deep eyes didn't have as much emotion as before. Amidst the calmness, there was a sense of oppression. Xinwan only felt that his grip on her wrist wasn't light at all. She felt uncomfortable and struggled for a while. Then, she heard Wen Hanyu's calm voice — —
"Since I'm here today, let's solve this problem."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Xinwan out of the car. Jiang Youyi had no objections. Just as Wen Han-woo had said, some problems had to be solved.
…
Tong Qing Meng was carrying a plate of fruits when she saw the three people entering the Family Jiang. She was stunned.
"You Yi, Wanwan and Young Master Wen are here too."
Wen Han-woo was not considered a son-in-law in the Family Jiang. Jiang Youyi tried to get close to him by calling him "Hanwoo." However, Tong Qing Meng seemed to be more distant from him.
The two families had been connected by marriage for six years. Wen Han-woo did not even call, let alone come over. Today, he actually came back with Xinwan. Tong Qing Meng was extremely surprised.
"Get the servant to make Hanwoo a cup of tea."
Jiang Youyi removed her jacket. Her expression was still tense. Tong Qing Meng put down the plate of fruits and went to call the servant.
"Wen Han-woo, let go of me!"
Xinwan struggled all the way, but she could not break free from Wen Han-woo's grip on her wrist. Taking advantage of the fact that Jiang Youyi was not paying attention, she lowered her voice and sneered, "Young Master Wen, don't you despise women like me the most? Then mind your own business. Don't get physical with me. "
He didn't force her any further and let go of her hand. His sexy thin lips curled into an ambiguous arc.
He strode forward and sat opposite Jiang Youyi. His hands rested on both ends of the sofa. Wen Han-woo crossed his legs elegantly and spoke first. "I won't waste time on small talk. Let's get straight to the point. I don't have any objections to the divorce, but our two companies have two projects in progress. We have another big project planned for the second half of the year. It has already started. If the marriage falls through, there will be a lot of gossip. This will not be good for our two companies."
"Miss Tong, I'm a straightforward person. I can put the interests of the company aside and I can also ignore the real reason for your divorce. But you have to at least give me an explanation. Back then, you clearly used me, Wen Han-woo. Today, you want to kick me away. Do you really think this is a hotel? Do you think you can come and go as you please? "
"It's natural that Young Master Wen wants me to give you an explanation."
Xinwan nodded gently with a confident and faint smile on her face. Wen Han-woo didn't know if it was because the light from the crystal lamp above her head was too bright, but when he looked at the smile on her face, it was obviously a little distant, but at that moment, it shook his heart without leaving a trace.
He furrowed his brows and averted his gaze somewhat uneasily. In order to prevent others from noticing his abnormality, he switched the long legs that he was crossing.
Xinwan wasn't in the mood to observe his subtle expressions. After pondering for a moment, she slowly said the words that she had organized in her heart —
"I previously thought that Young Master Wen should be very worried about the interests of the company, so I once mentioned to my father that we should divorce peacefully and not affect the interests of the company at all, right? I believe that Young Master Wen is also a person who prioritizes the overall situation. Moreover, although our marriage has been going on for six years, I'm afraid that the people in B City will only pay more attention to you, Wen Han-woo, and not to you and me. So if you agree, we can handle the divorce in a low-key way. It's been so long that no one will notice anything at all. So, Young Master Wen, you don't have to worry about affecting the company. "
"As for why I insist on a divorce, of course, it's also because I don't want to continue wasting my life like this. Young Master Wen, I believe that you also have a woman that you want to cherish. Wasting time with me like this is actually not good for either of us. Six years ago, I did borrow the power of the Family Wen. But in the end, in these six years, the Jiang Corporation and the Wen Corporation have joined forces and are already the leaders of B City. Actually, you don't lose out, do you? "
"So, the reason you want to divorce me is because you want to find a second love in your life?"
Wen Han-woo's slender fingers tapped the edge of the sofa intermittently. His seemingly casual movements gave people a strong sense of oppression for no reason. He sneered, thinking that he understood.
Xinwan did not explain, nor did she admit it. She was smart enough to counter this shrewd man with little effort. "Young Master Wen, are you saying that you are my first love?"
This woman was more than just sharp-tongued. Wen Hanyu's brain worked quite quickly. Not to mention the business negotiation table, there were obviously times when he was at a disadvantage. Normally, no one would dare to block his words like this.
He felt that he had reached the age of 30 in his life. For six years, the name "Tong Xinwan" was written in the column of his legal spouse. It was only at this moment that he truly understood what kind of woman he had married six years ago.
Xinwan saw that he had panicked for a moment and pressed on. "Young Master Wen, actually, you and I both know very well that we don't have any feelings for each other. I believe that your thoughts are the same as my father's. I, Tong Xinwan, am naturally not the slightest bit important to you. What's important is those projects, right? Since we are sitting together today, let's make things clear. If we continue to work together on those projects, let's divorce in private first. Consider it as both of us taking a step back. "
"Take a step back?" Wen Han-woo raised one of his eyebrows. "What's your Family Jiang's' take a step back '?"
Xinwan replied calmly, "My 'take a step back' is that I have never asked you for anything in the past six years. If I really wanted to cause trouble, it wouldn't do you any good, right?"
Wen Han-woo sneered. "Are you threatening me now?"
"If you think that using the word 'threat' to describe what I just said to you is more appropriate, then I won't deny it."
The man raised his hand and clapped twice in a mocking manner. His voice was as cold as ice. "Very well. I have really underestimated you. You have everything prepared. You probably just need a push."
Xin Wan was still smiling. "Then we'll have to see if Young Master Wen is willing to do this. This kind of thing doesn't have any disadvantages for either of us. It should be a good thing for both of us. Unless … Young Master Wen, you really like me. "
"Like you?"
Wen Han-woo's eyes darkened. His exquisite features were full of sarcasm. "In addition to being a little clever, you are also quite self-righteous."
"That's good. Now we are waiting for Young Master Wen to sign the divorce agreement."
Wen Han-woo.
He found that when he talked to this woman, his emotions were easily driven by her. Emotions — this was something that he had always been able to control easily. But now, in front of this woman, they all collapsed. What was the reason?
It was just a short conversation, but he was driven directly into a dead end by her. If he still refused to sign the divorce agreement, it would seem that he really liked her.
No, why didn't he agree to sign the divorce agreement?
She was just a woman he didn't like. There was nothing wrong with what she just said. If he handled this marriage in a low-key way, the project could still go on as usual, and the Wen Corporation wouldn't suffer any losses, right?
As if to prove that he only disliked her and had no feelings for her, Wen Han-woo stood up and casually gathered his suit jacket. He said in a low voice, "I agree to the divorce, but I have one condition —"
He looked at Jiang Youyi. "In the future, we will only have a simple relationship of cooperation. But this time, the Family Jiang proposed the divorce first. My condition is that the Wen Corporation will take one percent more of the cooperation projects signed at present. Mr. Jiang, if you agree, I will sign the divorce agreement immediately. "
He nodded politely, ignoring Jiang Youyi's tense face. He didn't even look at Xinwan. "I have said what I wanted to say. Then I will leave first. If you have made a decision, just tell my secretary."
Tong Qing Meng had just come out of the kitchen when she heard Wen Han-woo's last sentence. Seeing that Wen Han-woo had left, she asked the servant not to serve tea. She walked into the living room and looked at her husband. His face was very gloomy, but her daughter looked a little relaxed.
She thought for a moment and went forward. "Youyi, Wanwan, if you have anything to say, you can talk it out. I don't want to see you argue."
Jiang Youyi's facial muscles twitched. This was an expression of extreme anger. Tong Qing Meng was well aware. She was a little worried that her daughter would suffer. Just as she was about to say a few words of comfort, Xinwan was one step ahead of her.
Her cold voice was very calm. She only said one sentence. "Dad, you have taken a step back today for me. One year later, I will pay you back. If you trust me, then support my decision. I will do what I say."
She paused and lowered her eyes as though she was struggling. Finally, she took a deep breath and looked up again. She enunciated each word clearly. "Previously, you suggested that I change my surname. If I successfully divorce Wen Han-woo this time, I am willing to change my surname to Jiang."
The word 'mistress' had always been despised by society. Xinwan didn't know how her parents met, fell in love, and fell in love with each other. After all, their love was not accepted by others. She had no choice but to marry Wen Han-woo back then, but she had always refused to officially change her surname to Jiang.
Jiang Youyi still had her parents. However, in recent years, they had started to travel the world and no longer cared about the Family Jiang. Tong Qing Meng had officially become the mistress of the Family Jiang. Although her personality was a little too soft, the elders in the Family Jiang had no choice but to acknowledge her.
