In Xinwan's heart, Li Ruoying was definitely different from Wen Han-woo. To be honest, Wen Han-woo didn't have a lot of scandals surrounding him. Occasionally, there would be tabloid media reports about him, but they were all groundless accusations. But this Li Ruoying, on the other hand, was really something.
But now, in front of him, she seemed to have said all the bad things about him.
Xinwan lowered her eyes and licked the corner of her lips with the tip of her tongue. On second thought, she felt that she didn't need to care too much about these things. Actually, no one was selfish. This time, she had almost gotten into big trouble because of Li Ruoying. She didn't need to hold it in and not say anything.
Even if she didn't want to reason with her, she should at least let Wen Han-woo know!
"Xinwan, do you feel wronged?"
Xinwan's thoughts were still wandering when Wen Han-woo suddenly spoke again. He elegantly flicked the ash from his cigarette. Xinwan glanced at him and saw his tightly pursed lips. There was a type of person who was God's favorite. No matter what kind of posture or action they took, they would always be able to attract the attention of countless people.
Wen Han-woo was such a person.
It was already early in the morning, but the night was still dark. White smoke curled up in front of him and the air was filled with a faint smell of smoke. Xinwan lifted her head and looked at him. After a while, she replied, "Wronged? Why should I be wronged? "
Wen Han-woo suddenly reached out and ran his long fingers through her black hair. His tone was calm throughout. "Don't you know very well in your heart? Your father's matter was obviously set up by someone. By now, you should know that the target is you. If it has something to do with Li Ruoying, then it does have something to do with me. If you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me, or how you want me to help you seek justice. "
"I don't feel wronged."
What was there to feel wronged about in this kind of situation? Actually, people were like this. If someone dug a trap for you to jump into and you jumped into it, that person was vicious. But what about you? What if you didn't have a problem? It took two hands to clap. If you were vigilant enough, then you wouldn't have been led by the nose by others.
Moreover, although she had been set up this time, there weren't any major problems. In fact, she had also seen many things clearly.
Xinwan had always been a cautious person, and her family background had always been the same.
. and her perspective was also different from others...
"I didn't like Li Ruoying in the first place. Actually, I was very hesitant from the start. Later, I even got someone to investigate. Instead of saying that she set me up step by step, it would be better to say that I was also confused because of my father's matter."
She took a light breath and realized that the breath she inhaled into her lungs was actually his breath. Xinwan's heart was slightly flustered. Perhaps it was because the night was too dark, but she felt that at this moment, Wen Han-woo's gaze was scorching as if it was going to melt her whole body. She couldn't help but avoid his gaze and quickly said, "There's no other meaning in telling you this. As for this necklace, it shouldn't be mine even if it's returned to its original owner."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked through the front door.
Wen Han-woo only held the cigarette and slowly finished the last puff. Then, he looked down at the necklace box in his hand. His gaze instantly turned from deep to light, then light and deep again.
Five minutes later, the man lit another cigarette for himself. Then he opened the car door and got in. Not long after, she heard the sound of the engine starting.
Xin Wan stood in the room upstairs and carefully pulled open the curtains. She watched as the black car drove further and further away in the night. She waited until the taillights disappeared before she put down the curtains.
With her back facing the window, she gently leaned against it. She reached out and massaged her temples. Her heart repeatedly thought about that necklace.
Actually, one of the reasons she had returned it to Wen Han-woo was to tell him that she wasn't someone who could hide things about Li Ruoying. But there was also a second reason.
However, did Wen Han-woo understand the other meaning behind her words?
…
The next day.
Xinwan woke up very late. However, probably because no one had slept well last night, she woke up at around ten o 'clock. Jiang Youyi and Tong Qing Meng were also sitting in the dining room for breakfast.
"Wanwan, you're up?"
Jiang Youyi instantly smiled when she saw her daughter. She beckoned her to sit down and asked the servant to prepare breakfast. "I slept too late last night. I've been tired these past few days. Look, breakfast is almost lunch today. Your mother has the habit of eating breakfast, so she asked the servant to prepare breakfast a little later. "
The servant served Chinese breakfast. Xinwan thanked her before she looked at Jiang Youyi. "Dad, how are you feeling?"
"I'm fine. Actually, the people inside didn't make things difficult for me. On the other hand, I …" Jiang Youyi smiled optimistically. "I just rested at that time. Look, I've been supporting such a big company all this time."
His words were obviously hinting at something. Sure enough, the next second, he changed the topic. "Wanwan, this incident made me realize that I'm old and won't be able to hold on for much longer. Our Family Jiang has always been relying on you. I know that you still have half a year to go to school in America. During these past few days, I've been thinking about what would happen to the company if something were to happen to me. What would happen to your mother? What would happen to you? Now that I'm out, I'm thinking that you don't have to go to school in America anymore. Follow me to the company. You've grown up and are very smart. I want to slowly hand the company over to you. "
"Dad, I-"
"No!"
Xinwan was about to say something, but Tong Qing Meng was even more agitated than her. She opened her mouth and denied it. "I don't agree."
Jiang Youyi's hand that was holding the milk cup paused for a moment. Then she put down the milk cup in her hand and asked, "Qing Meng, why don't you agree?"
Tong Qing Meng rarely asked about Xinwan's schooling. In the six years that Xinwan had been away, Tong Qing Meng had always nagged her that she missed her daughter too much and hoped that she would come back soon.
But now, his wife disagreed when he asked her to go to the company with him. Jiang Youyi was really curious.
"I- what I mean is that I want Wanwan to finish her studies in America." Tong Qing Meng noticed her husband's gaze on her and realized that her tone was too anxious. "It's not good to give up halfway. Besides, it's not as serious as you say. Youyi, you're still young. Wanwan only has half a year left. "
"I'm not young anymore. Sigh."
Jiang Youyi didn't think too much about it. She just sighed. "How am I still young? I'm just an empty shell. Wanwan isn't young either. As for her degree, if she really can't do it, she can study while working. It's not like she has to go to America. "
He looked at Xinwan. "You didn't want to come back to America in the past mostly because of Xiao Yu. Now that the child is here, it's not good for you to leave on your own."
Xiao Yu was indeed Xinwan's weakness. But to be honest, Xinwan didn't really want to leave now.
Just as Jiang Youyi said, there was nothing wrong with studying.
The issue of child custody had become a mystery. Wen Han-woo didn't mention it. She had brought it up a few times, but it wasn't taken seriously. How could she bear to leave her son?
"It's better to finish what you started. Isn't it just half a year?"
Tong Qing Meng was very insistent. "Wanwan, you should go to America to study. I'll take care of Xiao Yu for you. You can discuss it with Wen Han-woo or come here a few days a week."
If Tong Qing Meng's attitude was said casually in the past, then she was a little too persistent now.
Xinwan's heart was filled with countless questions. "Mom, why do you want me to go to America? Didn't you keep asking me to come back? Actually, it's just half a year of self-study. It's okay if I don't go. "
"I-I didn't mean that."
Tong Qingmeng opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but when the words reached her mouth, she didn't know what to say. Her mind was in a mess and she had lost a lot of weight over the past few days. In the end, she put down her chopsticks and stood up. "Forget it. I'll leave it up to you and your father to decide. I've been having a headache these past few days. Now that your father's matter has been resolved, Wanwan, I want to stay at your grandmother's place for a few days."
"Qingmeng."
Jiang Youyi also stood up. She thought that she had said something wrong and made her wife unhappy. Why would she go to her mother's house all of a sudden?
Tong Qing Meng said, "It's not because of you. I'm really a little tired. Also, didn't something happen to you two days ago? Mom misses you very much. She has to go for a checkup these few days, so she can't specially come over. I'll go and see her. I'll be gone for three days. "
Tong Qing Meng asked the driver to drive her to Lin Mei's house in the afternoon.
Jiang Youyi had been busy these few days after leaving the company. However, Xinwan's matter was more or less settled. Jiang Youyi could see that Wen Han-woo cared more and more about his daughter. Naturally, he was happy. Therefore, after Tong Qing Meng left, he took Xinwan to the company.
He didn't have a son. Such a big company needed someone to inherit it. His eldest daughter was already like this. His only hope was on Xinwan.
Of course, if she could get back together with Wen Han-woo, he would be more than happy.
It wasn't the first time Xinwan came to the Jiang Group, but it was the first time she came in with Jiang Youyi.
The Jiang Group was Jiang Youyi's painstaking effort. The people in the company were all his confidants. Therefore, when Xinwan entered the company, she didn't need to follow any complicated instructions. Jiang Youyi let her follow him directly. She would be in contact with the highest level of the company.
Jiang Youyi set up his daughter's office next to his own. He asked his secretary to organize some documents and let Xinwan familiarize herself with the company's basic operations.
It was already around 1 pm. Xinwan was a little absent-minded after reading two pages. She took out her phone several times, but there was no message on it.
Oh right, Xiao Yu.
Xinwan thought. Where did Xiao Yu go after school today? Should she ask Wen Han-woo? Then, should she give him a call now?
But the three words "Wen Han-woo" were right in front of her on the screen. She couldn't bring herself to press down her phone.
If she wanted to see her son, couldn't she just go to the kindergarten? Why did she have to call him?
— — Tong Xinwan, have you forgotten? He was in C City on a business trip, but he had an ambiguous relationship with a young model. Now that he's back in B City, who knows which woman he's with. If you call him, won't you be spoiling the fun?
What are you thinking?
With a slam, Xin Wan shoved the phone back into the drawer and picked up the document to continue reading.
…
Wen Han-woo was really with a woman. But this woman was Li Ruoying.
