Xinwan instinctively reached out and grabbed the necklace around her neck. She didn't take it off but kept it on. She didn't even think about taking it off. She had never really experienced what it was like to be in love. She didn't know if she was feeling guilty, excited, or some other emotion. She couldn't describe it. She only opened her mouth and said childishly, "What necklace? I'm not wearing it!"
Wen Han-woo chuckled on the other end of the phone. His laughter was still as pleasant as ever. "You're contradicting yourself. I wonder if you're wearing a necklace or not?"
"Wanwan, do you still remember what you said to me last night?"
Xinwan was stunned for a moment. She had been thinking about what she had said last night. Now that Wen Han-woo asked her this question, she vaguely felt that she might have said something "indiscreet after drinking." But what exactly did she say?
"It seems like you don't remember. But it's okay. You can think about it."
She didn't reply. Wen Han-woo wasn't anxious, but he said seriously, "Wanwan, wear the necklace. I've already thrown away the previous one. Since another woman has worn it before, I won't give it back to you. I know why you returned the necklace to me. I'm giving you a new one now. You should understand what I mean. Wait for me to go back. "
Before Xinwan could come back to her senses, she heard someone call "President Wen." Then Wen Han-woo said, "I have something to do here. I'll hang up first."
She didn't say "goodbye" before the call was cut off.
She held the phone in one hand and gently touched the pendant on her necklace with the other. Her clear eyes stared at the dimmed screen. She felt her heartbeat not calm down for a long time.
Tong Qing Meng washed her face in the bathroom to calm herself down.
Only then did she tidy up her things and get ready to go back to the restaurant.
But when she came out of the bathroom, she saw Seo Dong-jun waiting for her at the door.
She stopped in her tracks. Her heart, which had calmed down with great difficulty, was in a mess in an instant. However, she hid her emotions well on her face. She walked around Seo Dong-jun and was about to leave when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"Qingmeng, you just saw me. Do you have to hide from me like this?"
Tong Qing Meng's heart ached when she heard that name. But she really didn't want to recall the past, especially now. Family Wen and Family Jiang were in such a situation, Wanwan and Wanwan and Wen Han-woo... If she was still entangled with Seo Dong-jun, what would Wanwan be like?
She struggled for a while and frowned. However, her tone was still calm. "Mr. Xu, let go. This is a public place. It's not good for people to see you pulling and pulling."
"Mr. Xu," she kept calling him Mr. Xu.
Xu Dongjun felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and the expression on his face was not much better. When he opened his mouth again, his hoarse voice was filled with suppressed pain. "Do you have to treat me like an outsider? Qingmeng, you didn't call me that in the past. "
It was as if he was the only person trapped in the past. The Qingmeng who chased after him back then was now a wife and was unwilling to look at him again.
But what about him? Even at this age, he still couldn't forget her. He couldn't forget her no matter how hard he tried.
— — All those years, it was fine if he didn't see her. Now that he saw her, it was as if the unforgettable love of the past was dug out again. How could he let it go just like that?
"You also know how to talk about the past, right? That was the past. Now, do you see it? I'm Jiang Youyi's wife. We've been married for more than 20 years, and he's always been very good to me. I don't care what happened between us in the past, but you have a fiancée now, right? Mr. Xu, you shouldn't be like this anymore. "Tong Qing Meng was still as calm as ever.
Seo Dong-jun loosened his grip on her wrist a little weakly, and his voice became even lower. "Qingmeng, I don't want to pester you, but do you want me to pretend that I don't know you when I see you? Maybe you're so heartless, but I can't do it. "
"Then what do you want?" Tong Qing Meng raised her head and looked straight at the man in front of her who refused to give up.
"I …"
Yes, what did he want?
Seo Dong-jun opened his mouth, but no words came out. He had never thought about what he wanted. It should be said that when he saw her again, his first feeling was probably disbelief, followed by excitement. Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that after so many years of suffering and suffering, he would meet her again with such an identity.
He was married to Wen Yuehua, so regardless of whether Wanwan divorced Wen Han-woo or not, they still had a son. She should still call him uncle. In this way, what was the relationship between him and Tong Qing Meng?
Were they in-laws?
To him, it was ironic!
"I don't know what I want to do, but what do you want me to do? Pretend that I don't know you when I see you? You can do it, but how can I do it? And about Wanwan … "
"Wanwan has nothing to do with you!"
As soon as Seo Dong-jun mentioned Xinwan, Tong Qing Meng became incomparably nervous. The way she denied it was obvious that she was trying to hide something. Seo Dong-jun was sure that Tong Qing Meng was hiding something from him. The best part of this woman's youth was spent with him. Actually, a person's nature would never change, especially that pair of eyes. Seo Dong-jun was now certain that Tong Qing Meng was hiding something from him.
"Qing Meng, you …"
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure at the end of the long corridor from the corner of his eye. His heart trembled and he swallowed all the words he wanted to say. He loosened his grip on Tong Qing Meng's hand. Tong Qing Meng probably sensed that something was wrong with him. She subconsciously followed his gaze and turned her face to the back. Only then did she see Wen Yuehua standing not too far away.
Tong Qing Meng was shocked. She was even more nervous than Seo Dong-jun.
She quickly took two steps back and wanted to leave, but she had to pass by Wen Yuehua. For a moment, she stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
On the other hand, although Seo Dong-jun was also nervous, he quickly calmed down and looked at Wen Yuehua without averting his gaze.
Actually, after meeting Tong Qing Meng again, Seo Dong-jun knew very well that one day, Wen Yuehua would find out about this. After all, the relationship between Family Jiang and Family Wen was obvious. He definitely couldn't hide it forever.
Now that Wen Yuehua had really found out, it wasn't a bad thing.
He wasn't the kind of person who liked to be sneaky.
However, when he saw Tong Qing Meng's nervous expression, just as he was about to ask her to leave, Wen Yuehua had already walked over to them. She called out from a distance, "Dong-jun, I was wondering why you took so long to use the restroom. So you were here with Mrs. Jiang."
Seo Dong-jun's expression changed at the mention of "Mrs. Jiang."
Since someone else had already spoken, Tong Qing Meng knew that she couldn't remain silent. She called out, "Miss Wen," and prepared to leave. "We just happened to bump into each other. I'm going to say hello. Wanwan is still waiting for me."
Wen Yuehua nodded politely and didn't say much. After watching Tong Qing Meng leave, she then looked at Seo Dong-jun, whose gaze had been following Tong Qing Meng the whole time. Her expression looked calm, but there was clearly a flash of forbearance between her brows.
"Yuehua, why are you here?" Seo Dong-jun spoke first.
Wen Yuehua glanced at him, then smiled slightly and said, "Haven't you been staying away? How was it? Are you done using the restroom? Let's go get something to eat. "
"I have something to tell you."
Seo Dong-jun pulled Wen Yuehua back and said, "Since you saw it, I don't want to hide it from you. Tong Qing Meng and I have known each other for a long time. We've known each other for more than 30 years!"
Seo Dong-jun spoke very quickly. He had sealed his escape route and didn't give himself the slightest chance to hesitate. In fact, he had been in a bad mood for the past few days. He had even quarreled with Wen Yuehua and stayed in a hotel. He clearly knew that it was because he had suddenly met Tong Qing Meng.
He didn't want to lie to Wen Yuehua. Moreover, they were about to get married.
"Yuehua."
"Stop talking!"
Wen Yuehua suddenly spoke up and interrupted Seo Dong-jun. She lowered her eyes, so Seo Dong-jun didn't see the emotions floating in the depths of her eyes. She spoke more anxiously than Seo Dong-jun. "Dong-jun, you're already so old. It's not rare for you to know someone in the past or have had a relationship with someone. You don't have to tell me everything. Even I didn't expect it to be Tong Qing Meng. But she's Xinwan's mother, Jiang Youyi's wife, and Hanwoo's mother-in-law. Since you've already said that it happened more than 30 years ago, I don't think she has any intention of bringing it up now. You don't have to explain anything to me. "
At this point, she looked up and said, "I believe you."
"No, Yuehua, Qingmeng and I …"
"Stop talking!" As soon as Wen Yuehua heard Seo Dong-jun call "Qingmeng," the color that had just returned to her face instantly drained. She pursed her lips and paused for three seconds before she immediately said, "I've never asked you about your past because we both have a past. I don't want to know your secrets and you've never asked me about my past. We're about to get married. Dong-jun, stop talking. Actually, I really don't want to know. I don't need to eat today. I just remembered that I have a lot of things to do. I'll leave first. "
"Yuehua …"
Xu Dongjun chased after her for two steps. However, Wen Yuehua walked very quickly. In the end, she was practically running. Xu Dongjun felt very uncomfortable as he looked at the back of the figure that was running away in a hurry not too far away.
Actually, it was impossible for him not to understand his woman.
What kind of woman was Wen Yuehua?
He had known her for many years. There was a sense of pride in her bones. Of course, it had something to do with her background and experience. So at this moment, Seo Dong-jun was almost certain that Wen Yuehua was a smart woman. She definitely knew something, but she didn't want to face it.
He sighed and stretched out his hand to press on his throbbing temples. For a moment, he was in a mess. Some things, to him, were like stepping into a quagmire. Some things seemed to be within his reach, but he didn't dare to touch them.
