Mother Yan was also provoked by this attitude and her anger rose immediately, and her words became mean.

“What are you saying! If I didn’t go to Jiang Huai and make him take responsibility for you, how are you going to live your life as a widow? If it weren’t for the child in your stomach, you wouldn’t have had the chance to enter the Jiang family. Could it be that you don’t want to marry Jiang Huai because you still miss Wu Chen?”

Yan Xia did not want to involve Wu Chen in this matter. “I never wanted to be with Wu Chen! Don’t say such things again in the future!”

Mother Yan’s voice became even shrill at her daughter’s rebuttal. “Okay, okay, okay. I was being a busybody. It’s really up to you to say what you want! I won’t meddle in your affairs in the future! But I’m warning you, stay away from that Wu Chen!”

“I know!”

Mother Yan had already hung up the phone.

For the whole afternoon, Yan Xia was restless. She treated herself like a robot, dealing with things mechanically.

As the sun set, the office was bathed in an orange glow. Yan Xia put down her work and relaxed on the massage chair. The sky was already dark when she left the office.

Yan Xia did not pay attention to the people on the road. She walked slowly with her head lowered. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her. The voice was very familiar.

“Xia Xia.”

Yan Xia froze. She stopped in her tracks and stumbled back.

She steadied himself and turned around. It was Wu Chen.

He walked closer and looked at Yan Xia with a familiar smile.

“Auntie refused to give me your number, so I could only come to the company to find you.”

Yan Xia lowered her head and looked at her feet, not knowing how to respond to him. Her stomach growled at this moment, relieving the awkwardness.

“I’m a little hungry. I have to go home for dinner. See you!”

Yan Xia pretended not to understand that Wu Chen was waiting for her. She smiled nonchalantly and turned to leave, but was suddenly stopped.

Wu Chen stopped her again. “Xia Xia, when are you going to stop hiding from me?”

Yan Xia heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to face him. “I’m not hiding from you. It’s just that it’s not appropriate for us to meet again given our current identities.”

Wu Chen did not seem to hear her. “Since you’re hungry, let’s go eat. There’s a newly opened internet-famous restaurant nearby. Come with me to visit it. ”

As Wu Chen spoke, he wanted to pull her away. Yan Xia knew that she could not avoid him, so she could only avoid his hand and follow him.

Seeing her like this, Wu Chen didn’t insist on pulling her, but walked beside her and led the way.

Yan Xia used to like visiting restaurants, and they were good friends. That was why she would often drag Wu Chen along, but that was in the past. People would change.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Yan Xia suddenly lost her appetite.

Wu Chen put some food into Yan Xia’s bowl. “Xia Xia, this is your favorite potato cake. Try it.”

Yan Xia did not touch the food on her plate. “I don’t like greasy food anymore.”

Wu Chen put his chopsticks away awkwardly and continued to find a topic to talk about. “Why did you suddenly transfer to a management company? I remember that you didn’t like the entertainment industry much before.”

“Work arrangements. Besides, the entertainment industry isn’t as boring as I thought.”

Wu Chen’s lips curled up, revealing the shallow dimples on his cheeks. He was very gentle. He was very clear about his own advantages and knew what was the most handsome and attractive. “You’re so outstanding that you can do anything in any field with ease.”

Yan Xia felt that the conversation was meaningless, so she called for the waiter to pay.

Wu Chen wanted to pay but was stopped by Yan Xia.

Wu Chen’s expression was a little sad, and there was even a look of pity in his eyes. “Are you angry because of what happened back then? I can explain it to you.”

“It’s meaningless.” Yan Xia interrupted him. “Actually, I hope we never see each other again. Wu Chen, you should have your own life.”

“Does he treat you well?”

It’s the most old-fashioned conversation in a TV series. If you say it’s good, will you let go of your obsession? If it wasn’t good, their lives wouldn’t have any more interactions.

“Wu Chen, this is my life. It has nothing to do with you. Today’s meal is my celebration of your return. Let’s not see each other again.”

After a pause, Yan Xia added, as if she felt that it was not enough:

“I don’t want Jiang Huai to misunderstand.”

Her words hurt Wu Chen deeply. He wanted to stop Yan Xia, but he was frozen in place by her words. His hand froze in mid-air, but he silently retracted it.

Yan Xia went to pay the bill and left the restaurant without looking back.

She didn’t notice that in an inconspicuous corner next to the table where they ate, a camera had secretly recorded evidence of their meeting.
