Wen Han-woo frowned. With his hands in his pockets, he stood at the entrance and looked at the two women outside the door. "Ruoying, why are you here?"
Li Ruoying's gaze first landed on Xinwan's face. She seemed very surprised that Xinwan would actually appear in Wen Han-woo's room. A trace of awkwardness flashed across her eyes. It seemed very quick, but it was obvious that it was easy to catch. She glanced at Han Eemo, and her tone was a little stiff.
"Auntie, why didn't you tell me that there was someone upstairs?"
After a pause, she said apologetically to Wen Han-woo, "I'm sorry. I really didn't know that Miss Tong was in the room with you. I'm sorry. I just haven't seen you for a few days. You even said that you wanted to have dinner with me last time …"
With that, she deliberately paused. Han Eemo took the opportunity to finish her sentence. "They came up to talk about something serious. It's about time now. Xinwan, come down with me. Linlin also came to look for Hanwoo to talk about something."
Xinwan wasn't stupid. She still knew how to read the situation. Han Eemo was obviously trying to matchmake Li Ruoying and Wen Han-woo.
She pursed her lips. She felt that there was no need for her to continue staying here. Li Ruoying liked Wen Han-woo. Didn't Wen Han-woo like her too?
If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have been involved in those little "scandals" with her all these years. If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have protected her so well. They were probably waiting for her to get a divorce, right?
But men were funny. Since he already had a woman he wanted to protect, why did he refuse to get a divorce in the past?
After the divorce, she finally gave him back his freedom. Yet, he started to get physical with her.
Xinwan completely didn't notice that her expression was getting stiffer and stiffer. There was an indescribable feeling in her heart. It was sour and bitter, but she would never admit that she cared.
Of course, she didn't care. No matter who Wen Han-woo was with, it had nothing to do with her. They were already divorced. She had never wanted to have anything to do with this man.
He was only Xiao Yu's father!
She secretly took a deep breath and nodded graciously. "We do have something important to talk about. Now that we're done, I'll go look for Xiao Yu."
After she finished speaking, she turned her body sideways and walked out.
Wen Han-woo's eyes were cold and dark. He looked at the slender figure from behind and walked out of the room without looking back. Then, Li Ruoying grabbed his wrist. He smelled the familiar scent of perfume that he found repulsive. The man's knitted brows seemed to pile up even higher.
"Hanwoo, where have you been for the past two days? Why didn't you say hello to me? I saw news about you in the newspapers. Why didn't you tell me that such a big thing happened? "
Xinwan thought that she must have been stupid from the fall. Otherwise, why would she feel like she was floating just by hearing the woman's sweet voice behind her?
She subconsciously straightened her back, but her footsteps became faster and faster.
"Tong Xinwan, wait a minute."
At the corner of the stairs, Han Eemo called out to her. Xinwan had no choice but to stop in her tracks. She didn't like Han Eemo, but this person was related to her son by blood. She was Xiao Yu's grandmother and used to be her mother-in-law. She felt that she didn't give her face, but she couldn't make a scene at her in front of Family Wen.
She slowly turned around and politely called out, "Auntie."
Han Eemo didn't care about her calling her "Auntie" at all. She crossed her arms in front of her chest because Xinwan was standing at the bottom of the stairs. At this moment, she looked at Xinwan condescendingly, showing her insufferably arrogant look. "In the future, don't call me Auntie in front of Xiao Yu. Otherwise, you won't be able to figure out the child's seniority. Tong Xinwan, of course, I don't want you to call me Mom, but Xiao Yu is my grandson. You've hidden it from our family for so long. Now that my son knows about it, it's impossible for you to bring this child back. However, Hanwoo's words make sense. After all, he's been with you for five years. Now, I don't want to chase you out of Family Wen. There's a guest room downstairs. You can stay here tonight. In two days, Haoxuan and I will settle the child's household registration. He'll stay here in the future. "
Xinwan clenched her hands by her sides and said calmly, "No, I won't change my original intention. I gave birth to this child five years ago. No one can take him away."
"No one can take him away?"
Han Eemo sneered. "Without my son, can you give birth to a child?"
"Sorry, I don't want to argue with you about this issue because it's meaningless." Although Xinwan's tone was gentle, her words made Han Eemo choke.
"What did you say? It's meaningless! Xiao Yu is my grandson. "
"Yes, he's your grandson, but he's only your grandson. He's not your son. If Wen Han-woo didn't exist, even if you went to court, you'd only be the child's elders. You can't fight with his mother for custody."
Han Eemo was so angry that her face turned green. "You, you, Tong Xinwan, you …"
She pointed at Xinwan and aimed her brightly painted nails at Xinwan's face. She trembled in comedy, but she couldn't say anything.
Xinwan wasn't interested in looking at her face anymore. She turned around and went downstairs.
Wen Yuehua was watching television with Tong Yanyu in the living room. As soon as Tong Yanyu heard footsteps, he turned around happily. Indeed, he saw Xinwan. He immediately jumped down from the sofa. "Mom!"
Wen Yuehua responded and turned around. Xinwan walked closer and saw that Family Wen, Old Madam Wen, and Wen Haoxuan were also in the living room. Everyone was sitting neatly in the living room. The huge LCD screen opposite them was playing the cartoon "Bonnie Bears". The funny thing was that this family probably thought that Xiao Yu liked to watch cartoons like this. They all accompanied him to watch the two bears and the bald Qiang chase each other.
Xinwan looked down quietly and reached out to hold her son's little hand. She pulled him into the living room. Old Madam Wen was the first to speak up. She was quite perceptive. Seeing that Xinwan had come down alone, she knew that the youngest daughter of the Li Family had gone upstairs. Her heart sank slightly. Afraid that Xinwan had taken the child away, she hurriedly said, "Xinwan, it's already very late. Stay here tonight. I've already gotten the servants to tidy up the room. Hanwoo probably just wanted to take you upstairs to talk to you. If you're willing, there's a room downstairs. You can sleep in the same room as Xiao Yu."
Actually, Shen Lingxiu was a very reasonable person. Xinwan also respected her. This old woman had never really treated her coldly. Hence, Xinwan was at a loss for words after hearing her words.
Wen Haoxuan also stood up and said, "Xinwan, it seems that your father brought your mother to G City. From what I know, there was a problem with a project in G City two days ago. Your father went there personally."
Oh, I see.
No wonder he couldn't get through to her previously. He was probably on the plane at that time.
She knew that when her father went on business trips, he did have a habit of bringing her mother along. Tong Qing Meng had a very gentle personality and had always taken care of Jiang Youyi meticulously. Hence, Jiang Youyi liked to bring this wife of his wherever he went.
However, Wen Haoxuan's words implied that he wanted Xinwan to stay for the night.
"Great-grandmother, Grandpa, I like the bed at night."
Of course, Xinwan didn't really want to stay. However, she was still thinking about how to say it in a more appropriate manner. Tong Yanyu was one step ahead of her. He said in a loud and clear voice, "I also came to B City previously. I slept at the house of one of Mommy's good friends. I especially like the bed at that auntie's house. I can sleep well at night."
Shen Lingxiu instantly looked disappointed. "Little baby, then tell Great-grandmother, what kind of bed do you like to sleep in? Great-grandmother will get someone to buy it for you immediately. "
"That's too troublesome. Besides, I took a long flight with Mommy today. I'm really tired. I really want to sleep now." Although the little fellow was only five years old, he knew how to control his words very well. "Great-grandmother, I'll come and see you again tomorrow after I've rested well."
Shen Lingxiu's body melted after hearing him call her Great-grandmother twice. All her anger dissipated. Upon hearing that her little baby was tired and that he would come tomorrow, she immediately agreed. "Alright then. Xinwan, bring Xiao Yu over tomorrow, okay?"
Since the elderly had already taken a step back, Xinwan couldn't do anything.
She could only nod. "Great-grandmother, I'll bring Xiao Yu over to see you tomorrow."
"Aye, okay, okay, okay. In that case, let Hanwoo send you and your son."
"It's okay."
Xinwan hurriedly waved her hand. "We'll go back on our own."
"That won't do."
Seeing that his mother had agreed, Wen Haoxuan didn't say anything more. However, he still insisted on sending them. "There's no car here at night. Let Hanwoo send you."
"Send what?"
Han Eemo walked over and glared at Xinwan. "Xiao Yu will stay. Didn't Hanwoo say that? Xiao Yu has to stay at Family Wen and can't leave. "
Xin Wan really had a headache. Han Yimo was always making things difficult for her. There were a few times when she had to suppress her anger, but whenever she faced Han Yimo, her anger would soar. However, in front of her children and so many elders, she couldn't flare up.
"Wah! Boohoo! "
Tong Yanyu felt Xinwan tighten her grip on his little hand. He knew that his mother was holding back her anger. The little fellow was very cooperative. He raised his head and started bawling loudly. This frightened the old lady at Family Wen. She threw down the walking stick in her hand and rushed over.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? My little darling, why are you crying? Where are you feeling unwell? Come, tell Great-grandmother, what's going on? "
Tong Yanyu's little finger pointed at the dazed Han Eemo. He choked and said, "I don't like this woman. Why does she always yell at my mother? She looks so fierce. I'm afraid I'll have nightmares at night! Mommy, I want to go back to Auntie's house. I want to go back to Auntie's house! "
The little fellow hugged Xinwan's thigh and shook it vigorously. Apart from the few drops of tears on his face, he looked really terrified.
