Chapter 219: Chapter 219: Coming Over On Purpose (1)_1
"Why is he here?
And ... why does his complexion look so terrible?
Zhang Te, sitting next to Han Jingnian, felt slightly anxious seeing Han did not take the initiative to speak with his wife. When Han’s wife looked at him and he still didn’t initiate the conversation, Zhang grew more anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.
When he couldn’t find her, he searched like crazy, hearing that she was in trouble, worried and rushed here. And now that he sees her, he keeps his mouth shut ...
After trying to communicate with Han Jingnian through various expressions for a while and realizing that he completely ignored him, Zhang finally smiled and spoke to Xia Wan’an, "Mr. Han overheard Secretary Ai talking to you on the phone and heard that you were forced to drink. So, he rushed here immediately ... "
If it weren’t for Mr. Han warning him not to let his wife know he was sick on their way here, he would have added "despite his illness" before "rushed here immediately".
Upon hearing these words, Xia Wan’an unconsciously tightened her grip on the chopsticks.
Did he come here especially for her?
It felt like a stone had dropped into her heart, stirring up ripples one after another.
Seeing Xia Wan’an didn’t respond, Zhang thought she didn’t understand who secretary Ai was, so he supplemented: "Secretary Ai’s name is Ai Jiang."
Xia Wan’an snapped back to reality and quickly responded: "Oh."
At the moment her words fell, her brows furrowed gradually.
But, she didn’t speak with Ai Jiang over the phone... Did Ai Jiang trick Han Jingnian into coming... does that mean... Gao Lin will appear soon?
Almost simultaneously, the door of the private room was pushed open and in walked Gao Lin, who was all dressed up in designer clothes, looking glam.
However, Gao Lin didn’t come alone. Behind her was a man, none other than Xia Wan’an’s biological brother, Xia Chen’an.
"Uncle Wang, hello. I was having dinner with my friends next door and Dad told me you’re here. So I came to greet you," Gao Lin walked straight up to Mr. Wang, who was sitting with his back towards the door.
Xia Wan’an, who was initially wondering why Xia Chen’an would come, suddenly understood everything after hearing Gao Lin’s words.
All this really was a coincidence. She only attends three or four business dinners a year and this time, she runs into an old lecher like Boss Song. Mr. Wang, whom she overheard discussing his hometown earlier, caused her to think the place sounded familiar. Seeing Gao Lin, she realized their common background.
It seems that Gao Lin was fully prepared for tonight’s event. To plan this meticulously, Ai Jiang must’ve had a hand in her strategy.
Perhaps her colleagues, who all of a sudden couldn’t make it tonight, were really bribed by Gao Lin.
Just as Xia Wan’an was thinking, Gao Lin suddenly addressed her, "By the way, Miss Xia, I ran into this gentleman in the lobby. He was asking the receptionist for your room number. Knowing that you’re in the same department with Azhi, I kindly showed him the way."
Knowing that she had been presenting Xia Chen’an as her husband in the group chat, Xia Wan’an didn’t show any slip, thanked Gao Lin politely then turned to Xia Chen’an and asked softly, "Why are you here?"
