But now that she thought about it, she realized that wasn't the case at all.
It wasn't that you didn't want to think about it or you forgot about it. It was because you didn't dare to think about it, but it was even more deeply rooted and permeated every part of your body. It was like a magic vine that didn't hurt when you didn't think about it. Once you thought about it, it would automatically tighten and wrap around your heart, causing a dull pain.
Wen Yuehua passed by a teahouse. It looked a little familiar, but she felt that it was completely different. It was rare for the owner to see a very fashionable woman come in, so he naturally had to greet her warmly.
Wen Yuehua pointed to a seat by the window. After sitting down, she asked the owner to serve her a pot of rose tea.
She took out a cigarette and was about to light it when she suddenly remembered what the doctor said at the hospital previously.
Yes, she was pregnant. Actually, she was already 48 years old. How could she still be pregnant at this time? What a ridiculous life.
Everyone outside thought that she was 45 years old. Actually, she wasn't. After her birthday this year, she would be 48 years old.
Pinching the cigarette between her fingers, Wen Yuehua looked at the drizzle outside the window. The streets and pedestrians in front of her seemed to have slowly begun to change. It was probably her illusion. She saw the street from 30 years ago again. It seemed to be in this location too.
That year, she was only 18 years old and had graduated from high school. She was at the age of a flower and had no worries every day. She was a real rich second-generation heir. When her father was still alive, Family Wen was already prominent in B City. Later on, her brother Wen Haoxuan was also very resourceful in the business world, although Wen Haoxuan was only a young man in his twenties at that time.
However, the people of Family Wen, to put it bluntly, had the way of business in their bones. She recalled that all these years, she had run various coffee shops and shops all over the world. It was very romantic. If it weren't for the fact that although Family Wen had few men, they were all very capable, she would probably also work at the Wen Corporation.
However, she had always been a carefree woman. The position in the company would always trap her.
Therefore, Shen Lingxiu never …
She didn't make any requests of her. Knowing her daughter's character, she had always been very accommodating.
It was that year that she came to this town. At that time, the town was much more retro than it was now. She also met a 28-year-old man in this place.
It was really easy for an 18-year-old girl to fall into the whirlpool of love when she met a 28-year-old man who was upright and elegant.
That was the first time in her life that she had fallen in love. Now that she thought about it, she could still remember the first time she had seen that face. It was a handsome face with a deep elegance. That was why she had been so willing in the end.
She was the daughter of the Wen family and had high standards. She had a lot of boys chasing after her in school, but she fell in love with a man who was 10 years older than her.
At that time, what she didn't know was that the man had already started a family.
When he found out later, it was already too late.
"The rose tea is here!"
The middle-aged boss yelled and came up with a small teapot that was not very exquisite. Then, he began to introduce how good his tea was. It was so old that it was impossible to buy this kind of flower tea in the shopping malls outside. It was all made by his own family. He talked a lot about it.
Wen Yuehua suddenly looked up and smiled at the boss. "I came here when I was 18 and stayed here for a long time. That's why I know that your tea is very good. There's a big sea of flowers behind the mountain, right? I remember that you weren't the boss back then, but he was like you. He liked to talk a lot. "
The boss was stunned because there weren't many customers at this time. He rubbed his hands and sat down. "Miss, you've been here before? Looking at you, I'll take the liberty of guessing your age. You should be in your early thirties. Then when you were 18, it should be my father who took care of this teahouse. "
Early thirties?
Wen Yuehua laughed. She picked up the teacup and took a sip. She took off the sunglasses on her face. "Although your words are very pleasing, I'm already 48 years old."
"What?"
The boss slapped his thigh with a look of disbelief. Then, he chuckled. "I really couldn't tell that you're already 48 years old. In that case, I seem to be three years older than you. But look at me. When I stand outside, others will think that I'm much older than you."
Wen Yuehua was still smiling. She knew that she did look young. Even if she didn't look so exaggerated as to look like she was in her thirties, no one could tell that she was already 48 years old.
Yes, she was 48 years old. All these years, she really thought that she was born three years later and didn't have the heart-wrenching pain of that year.
"You're from the city, right?"
"B City."
"People from the city look very western." The boss was about to continue talking when another customer suddenly came in. He got up and didn't forget to say to Wen Yuehua, "Well, I'm going to greet the customer. If you want to go somewhere later, just ask me. I'll even be your tour guide!"
Wen Yuehua said, "Thank you." She finished half a pot of flower tea by herself before she got up. When she left, it was the waiter who collected the money. She wanted to say goodbye to the boss, but the waiter said that the boss was in the washroom, so Wen Yuehua left immediately …
When Xinwan returned to the apartment, the auntie happened to be preparing dinner.
Knowing that they were coming back today, Wen Han-woo had probably already instructed the auntie to prepare dinner the moment they got home.
Xinwan felt uneasy today and really wanted to go back to the Family Jiang. In fact, after Xiao Yu was discharged from the hospital, Tong Qing Meng had called to ask about it. Xinwan answered absent-mindedly. After dinner, she helped Xiao Yu take a bath. After he fell asleep, she thought about it and felt that something was wrong. She took out her phone and called Wen Han-woo first.
He was driving. The background music of the phone was a song that he had played in the car. Xinwan asked, "Are you outside?"
"Wanwan, I might not be able to go back tonight."
Wen Han-woo lowered the volume of the stereo. "I have to go look for my aunt."
"Do you know where she is?"
Wen Han-woo did not intend to hide it from her, but he said vaguely, "I've asked someone to investigate. She's not in B City, but I can get there by car. You probably don't know where she is. I'll tell you when I get home."
The two of them gradually got along well. When the man on the other end of the phone said "go home", Xinwan really had an illusion that she and Wen Han-woo were a loving couple. He was out working, she was waiting for him at home, and their son had just fallen asleep.
This kind of feeling was really too extravagant for her.
Seeing that she did not speak, Wen Han-woo said again, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. I'll get on the highway immediately."
"I have something to ask you."
Xinwan suddenly interrupted. She did not give herself a chance to hesitate. She bit her lip and finally asked, "I want to know if your aunt's disappearance has anything to do with my mother?"
The sudden silence on the other end of the phone made Xinwan's heart sink. She took a deep breath and said in one breath, "Wen Han-woo, you don't have to hide anything from me. I'm not a fool, but I have a feeling that you should know the whole thing. Actually, I've been thinking about this all afternoon. I don't know how to describe my feelings. I should ask my mother, right? But I don't think it's possible. My heart is in a mess. Give me a straight answer. If you really know, please tell me. "
Wen Han-woo had thought that since he knew about this matter, Xinwan could not hide it from him for too long. She was not a woman with a low IQ. On the contrary, this woman was very cautious and sharp, so she would find out about some things sooner or later.
But he did not expect it to be so soon. He also did not expect that she would ask him first.
It was not a question. She asked him because she trusted him. She did not dare to ask Tong Qing Meng. In fact, it proved that she still did not dare to face it in her heart.
Wen Han-woo saw that the car was about to reach the toll booth in front. He stopped at the turn and turned on the double jump lights. Because he had Bluetooth, it was very convenient when he lit a cigarette.
He took two puffs of the cigarette, rolled down the window, and rested his elbow on it. Finally, he asked, "Wanwan, who told you about this?"
She had been with him for the past few days. Although Tong Qing Meng came to visit Xiao Yu every day, she did not stay for long. As for Seo Dong-jun, he did not even appear in the hospital. How could she suddenly know?
"You really know?"
Xinwan directly skipped the topic. She did not want to bring up Han Eemo right now. She just wanted to know if the problem between her mother and Tang Zijun was real.
Wen Han-woo sighed softly. He felt a little helpless, but he did not plan to hide it from her. However, when he said it, he still avoided the important and dwell on the trivial. "Wanwan, I know a little, but I promise I only found out a while ago."
The man's voice passed through the radio into her ears. It was deep and sexy, but when Xinwan heard the words that came out of his mouth, no matter how gentle his voice was, it still could not warm her heart that was getting colder and colder.
"Previously, when Little Aunt suddenly told us that she would not get married again, I thought it was just a small conflict between them. Later, Little Aunt went to the hospital and I found out that it was not. At that time, Seo Dong-jun was also present. He probably felt guilty, so he told me the truth. He did mention your mother, but that was more than 30 years ago. "
Xinwan tightly pursed her lips. She gradually tightened her grip on the phone. It really felt like a bolt from the blue.
The night was so dark. She stood alone on the apartment's balcony, looking at the pitch-black darkness in front of her. She felt like she had sunk into an endless abyss.
She had always thought that her mother loved her father deeply. Otherwise, even if she did not know that he had a family in the beginning, she still did not hesitate when she found out later. If there was no love, why was she so persistent?
