âHello, Chen.â Lin Wan answered the call.
âMm, are you busy with work today?â Xiao Yichenâs voice was filled with gentleness.
âIâm not busy,â Lin Wan replied.
âOkay,â Xiao Yichen responded. âWanâer, 1 might be home late in the afternoon.
You can go back and eat first. You donât have to wait for me.â
âOkay, 1 understand,â Lin Wan replied, thinking that Xiao Yichen must have had something important and decided not to question further.
After a few more sentences, they hung up the phone.
Half an hour later, Xu Yanxi arrived at the East Mansion, and upon seeing Xiao Yichen occupied in his office, she patiently waited in the lounge area.
However, Xiao Yichen didnât come out of the office until past five in the afternoon.
Xiao Yichen was not surprised to see Xu Yanxi sitting there.
âChen, are you done?â Xu Yanxi greeted him with enthusiasm, taking his arm affectionately.
âMm,â Xiao Yichen responded apathetically to Xu Yanxi, saying, âLetâs have dinner together, and Iâll take you home afterwards.â
âNo, come shopping with me first,â Xu Yanxi refused.
Xiao Yichen, looking at Xu Yanxiâs angry expression, though reluctant to accompany her on a shopping trip, ultimately nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Lin Wan and Shen Yun exited the office building, chatting as they walked.
âWanwan, does this mean your husband will be home late tonight?â Shen Yun asked Lin Wan.
âThat should be the case,â Lin Wan replied.
âThen donât go home to eat. Letâs go grab a big meal,â Shen Yun suddenly suggested. âI havenât had a big meal in a long time. 1 miss it.â
Upon hearing Shen Yunâs words, Lin Wanâs mouth watered. She thought momentarily and said, âYes, Iâll call Auntie Li at home and tell her. Then, weâll have a feast.â
âOkay, okay. Letâs go to the restaurant we went to last time. Their Boiled Fish is very delicious,â Shen Yun said happily.
Lin Wan smiled and nodded. Then, she called Auntie Li and told her before driving to the restaurant with Shen Yun.
The restaurant was on the fifth floor of Ancheng Cityâs International Mall. After Lin Wan parked her car at the mall entrance, she and Shen Yun exited and walked into the mall.
The two originally planned to take the elevator to the fifth floor, but during the peak period, too many people were waiting at the entrance.
âWanwan, letâs take the escalator. Itâs too crowded here,â Shen Yun suggested.
âOkay,â Lin Wan replied and went to take the escalator with Shen Yun.
The two of them took the escalator to the fifth floor. Lin Wan suddenly stopped just as they were about to walk toward the restaurantâs entrance.
She saw Xiao Yichen and a woman not far away.
Shen Yun was originally walking arm-in-arm with Lin Wan, but now that Lin Wan had stopped, Shen Yun also stopped in confusion.
âWhatâs wrong, Wanwan?â Shen Yun asked Lin Wan, as she was unaware of the situation. She then followed Lin Wanâs gaze.
At this moment, Xiao Yichen also saw Lin Wan not far away. He stopped in his tracks with a surprised expression.
Why is Wanâer here? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âChen, whatâs wrong?â Xu Yanxi saw Xiao Yichen stop and asked him with a smile.
Xiao Yichen didnât answer Xu Yanxiâs question. He stared at Lin Wan.
Lin Wan looked at the scene before her and suddenly had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
That woman held Xiao Yichenâs arm. He was holding a few shopping bags in his hand. It was obvious that those were shopping bags for womenâs clothes.
So, the woman on the front page today is the woman beside him?
