Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Ugly, Old, and Bald (1)_1

He’s actually here?!

Xia Wan’an stared at Han Jingnian in shock for a few seconds before looking away and glancing out the window.

The car was parked some distance away from the streetlights, making the interior quite dim. He was wearing a black suit which blended with the darkness, and had it not been for the glow from his laptop, one might not have noticed there was someone sitting in the back seat. For such a busy man, wouldn’t it have been enough to send his assistant Zhang Te to run errands instead of going in person?

Since she had entered the car, Han Jingnian hadn’t shown much reaction. He seemed to treat her as if she were just a part of the air, but his unspoken pressure made Xia Wan’an feel as if the air in the car was thinning.

Feeling uncomfortable, she shifted towards the car door, increasing the distance between them slightly.

Perhaps her movement startled him, because she felt him tilt his head towards her.

His subtle action made Xia Wan’an reflexively look his way.

Just a brief eye-contact was enough for her eyes to scatter in surprise.

He was quiet, clearly not intending to start a conversation. However, this left her in a dilemma... Should she greet him?

If she greeted him, what should she say? How should she address him? Calling him husband was simply out of the question. Using Han Jingnian would be too impersonal, but addressing him as Mr. Han would make her sound pretentious...

After some thought, Xia Wan’an replaced his name with "That...":"That... So, you’ve been in the car?"

Zhang Te, the assistant who had been sent to get water, just returned to hear her words and almost burst out laughing.

That... Which one? Her way of addressing Mr. Han as ’That’ was simply adorable to Zhang Te.

Han Jingnian didn’t respond.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Xia Wan’an touched her nose and dropped her head to look at her phone.

Zhang Te, who had seen the whole scene, couldn’t help but sigh deeply in his heart.

He wasn’t usually a fan of drama, but he liked the ones involving Mr. Han. After he had cheekily invited Mrs. Han into the car, he had thought he’d have some fun. But, turns out... there was no drama, and he was left to clean up Mr. Han’s mess...

Thinking of this, Zhang Te tried to lighten the mood: "Mrs. Han, here is some water for you."

"Thank you." Xia Wan’an gave Zhang Te a grateful look and took the water.

"Mrs. Han, did you get hurt during the fight?"

"No."

"Mrs. Han, why did you fight?"

"..."

Just when Xia Wan’an and Zhang Te were starting a conversation, Zhang Te’s phone rang.

"Sorry," said Zhang Te as he put on his headphones to take the call.

Xia Wan’an sneakily looked at Han Jingnian who was still focusing on his laptop through the rearview mirror, and then she lowered her head to check her constantly vibrating phone.

Song Youman had created a new WeChat group called "Heartless Pretty Boy." There were only three people in the group: herself, Han Zhijin, and Song Youman.

[Wild Grass (Song Youman)]: "I’m home now, are you guys okay?"

[I’m Handsome (Han Zhijin)]: He sent a picture of a wall and added: "Reflecting in front of a wall..."
