Sometimes, a woman's sixth sense was surprisingly accurate in certain aspects. This was not only because of men, but because a woman could see too many things from another woman's eyes.
This Li Ruo Ying, even a blind person could tell how she treated Wen Hanyu. Hence, the way she looked at Xin Wan right now was filled with suppressed hostility. Xin Wan could clearly tell.
She felt that Li Ruoying was overthinking. She had no improper thoughts about Wen Han-woo. Even if she gave birth to his son, it was only because the child was hers.
The main reason why she had to divorce was because of Xiao Yu's learning and growth problems. However, another reason was that she clearly knew that this kind of thing could not be delayed forever. She could hide the existence of Xiao Yu for five or ten years, but could she hide it for a lifetime? Even if she always carried the title of "Mrs. Wen", this shocking secret would be exposed one day.
She did not want to force anyone to form a family because of a child. This was a kind of torture for anyone. Although she was not a woman who loved more than the sky, she had tried to get married without love for six years. She really did not want to ruin her life.
"Miss Tong, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to see you here. Sorry to disturb you and Hanwoo."
When the two brushed past each other, Li Ruoying suddenly spoke. Her gentle female voice was very considerate. Anyone who heard it would think that she was a real rich man's daughter. She knew how to behave when she opened her mouth. However, although her words were somewhat modest, her tone did not seem to imply that Xinwan was Mrs. Wen at all.
Xinwan did not care. She reached out and casually fiddled with her long hair. She smiled at Li Ruoying gracefully.
"Is it really a coincidence? I don't think so. But Miss Li, you didn't disturb me. On the contrary, you came at the right time. "
Li Ruoying's face suddenly changed.
She had not met Xinwan before and did not know Xinwan's personality. However, from what she knew, "Tong Xinwan" should not be very capable.
Even if she married into the Wen family six years ago, it was only because she had the support of the Family Jiang behind her back. If not, of course, it was also because of Wen Han-woo's grandmother. However, if she was really capable, why did Hanwoo dislike her for six whole years?
Therefore, in Li Ruoying's mind, Xinwan was no different from a "porcelain doll". She was just the daughter of a mistress. How much "trouble" could she cause?
However, Li Ruoying did not expect her words to be so sharp even though she was smiling warmly at Xin Wan. Li Ruoying was caught off guard.
However, in front of Wen Han-woo, she naturally could not say much. Moreover, Xinwan did not want to waste time with her. After she finished speaking, she walked past her and headed for the elevator.
"Ruoying, why are you suddenly here?"
Wen Han-woo's slender fingers brushed the sides of his coffee cup. He realized that the coffee was already cold and tasteless. He pressed the internal line and asked his secretary to make him another cup. He then looked up at Li Ruoying. "What do you want?"
"It's okay."
Li Ruoying shook her head. The anger she had suffered at Xinwan's place was still raging in her chest. However, when faced with Wen Han-woo, she could not vent her anger. She pursed her lips and said in a coquettish tone, "You clearly said before that you would come over for dinner. But in the blink of an eye, two days have passed and there's been no news at all. I even had to personally invite you over."
Wen Han-woo furrowed his brows as if he had just remembered. "Sorry, I've been a little busy these few days."
"Busy with what?"
"Ruoying."
Li Ruoying's three emotional words clearly made Wen Han-woo unhappy. The relationship between the two had always been delicate. Li Ruoying's greatest strength was that she had grown up in a wealthy family. She knew when to advance and when to retreat.
Almost everyone around her knew that she liked Wen Han-woo. But how did Wen Han-woo treat her?
He was neither close nor distant. He did not make it clear, nor did he deliberately avoid anything. When he introduced her to others, he always used the identity of his childhood friend's little sister. But for a man as smart as him, how could he not know when others could see the problem?
Li Ruoying was waiting. She understood Wen Han-woo's character. All these years, she had been by his side quietly. Her gentle and pleasant appearance naturally "catered to his preferences." Just now, when she had subconsciously asked those three words, it seemed a little out of line. Wen Han-woo's displeasure was written all over his exquisite features. She quickly restrained her emotions.
"Sorry, Hanwoo. I didn't mean anything by it. I was just wondering if you felt the need to avoid suspicion because your wife is back. I …"
"There's no such thing."
Wen Han-woo spoke in a deep voice, interrupting Li Ruoying. His deep eyes calmly glanced at Li Ruoying. Seeing that her expression was a little strange, his originally cold voice subconsciously softened a little. "Don't think too much. I'm just busy. I just came back from America, and I have a few projects to follow up on. How about this? I'll see if I have anything to do tonight. You can go back first. I'll call you later, okay? "
Since he had already said that, Li Ruoying could not say anything else. She tactfully acknowledged, "Okay. My brother is also home today."
"Okay, I'll contact Deng Zhi."
Li Ruoying opened her mouth. Actually, that wasn't what she wanted to say. She would rather he contact her, but after so many years, she had always been careful in front of him. Now, she couldn't be flustered just because of Tong Xinwan's appearance. Besides, weren't they talking about a divorce?
She calmed herself down and smiled gently. Then she said to Wen Han-woo, "Hanwoo, I'll go back first. Call me tonight."
After Li Ruoying left, Wen Han-woo dialed the Chief Secretary's landline. "Where's Tong Xinwan?"
Chen Fangfei was stunned. "Mrs. Wen left a long time ago."
After a moment, she suddenly realized something and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Wen. I didn't know that you didn't intend to let Mrs. Wen leave. I'll definitely ask her to stay next time. However, Mr. Wen, you can't be so arrogant in front of Mrs. Wen. Why don't I pay Mrs. Wen a visit tomorrow and make it clear to her that you don't want to divorce her at all?"
Wen Han-woo snorted coldly. "Secretary Chen, I think you should really change your career. Instead of being a secretary, you should become a mind reader. You might even get a patent for it."
Chen Fangfei was speechless.
"Also, you previously told me that Qin Fangang followed Tong Xinwan to America. However, it doesn't seem to be the case. Secretary Chen, since when did you learn to lie to your boss?"
"Do you still want your year-end bonus?"
"— — Mr. Wen, don't be so cruel. I'm just giving you advice and giving you a push. Moreover, I've also contributed to this. After you went to America and showed off your affection with Mrs. Wen at the airport, our new project was very successful. That's considered as compensation, right? "
Wen Han-woo's slender fingers moved slightly and the corners of his lips curled into a smile. However, his voice was still cold and hard. "That was just a lucky hit. If you dare to try to figure out Mr. Wen's thoughts without his permission in the future, your bonus will be deducted."
Chen Fangfei felt like crying when she heard the beeping sound coming from the receiver.
She sat in the office and kept criticizing Wen Han-woo in her heart. You obviously don't want to get a divorce. Why are you afraid of others talking about it? You're so angry when others talk about you.
This kind of arrogant and boring man is really a headache.
Xinwan and Qin Fangang made an appointment to meet at a high-end club in B City in the evening.
However, after leaving Wen's company, she went home first. Jiang Youyi had been waiting for her for a long time. As soon as Xinwan got home, she was pushed by Tong Qing Meng to the study on the second floor. Before letting her in, Tong Qing Meng told her repeatedly that she must have a good talk with her father.
Jiang Youyi was really bad-tempered. He was probably annoyed by this inexplicable report. As soon as Xinwan pushed the door in, he raised his hand and threw the newspaper on the desk. He pointed at it and questioned, "What's going on? Didn't you say before that you want to get a divorce? Why do you show off your affection when you're about to get a divorce? Wanwan, although you're still young, you can't treat marriage like a game. Do you want the whole B City to see our Family Jiang as a joke? "
Xinwan also expected this result. On the way here, she had already thought of a plan, and Jiang Youyi was the first obstacle.
She lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Dad, it's an accident. There were many reporters at the airport in the United States at that time."
"This is not an excuse."
Jiang Youyi took a look at his daughter in front of him and said in a slightly gentler tone, "Now it's like this. Don't mention divorce to me anymore. I think Hanwoo doesn't really want to divorce you. To be honest, I don't agree with your divorce. It's best that you don't get a divorce."
Xinwan pursed her red lips and didn't say a word.
When Jiang Youyi saw that she didn't say anything, he thought that he had persuaded her. For a moment, he even thought that his daughter had caught Wen Han-woo by suddenly coming back and fussing about a divorce.
As a man, what he couldn't get was always the best.
He had also been young once. For a high and mighty man like Wen Han-woo, Xinwan's method of loosening the reins only to grasp them was really effective.
Hence, in just a few days of interaction, the two of them might have really developed feelings for each other. This was naturally great news to him.
