“Hello, Chen.” Lin Wan answered the call.
“Mm, are you busy with work today?” Xiao Yichen’s voice was filled with gentleness.
“I’m not busy,” Lin Wan replied.
“Okay,” Xiao Yichen responded. “Wan’er, 1 might be home late in the afternoon.
You can go back and eat first. You don’t have to wait for me.”
“Okay, 1 understand,” 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 didn’t come out of the office until past five in the afternoon.
Xiao Yichen was not surprised to see Xu Yanxi sitting there.
“Chen, are you done?” Xu Yanxi greeted him with enthusiasm, taking his arm affectionately.
“Mm,” Xiao Yichen responded apathetically to Xu Yanxi, saying, “Let’s have dinner together, and I’ll take you home afterwards.”
“No, come shopping with me first,” Xu Yanxi refused.
Xiao Yichen, looking at Xu Yanxi’s 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.
“Wanwan, does this mean your husband will be home late tonight?” Shen Yun asked Lin Wan.
“That should be the case,” Lin Wan replied.
“Then don’t go home to eat. Let’s go grab a big meal,” Shen Yun suddenly suggested. “I haven’t had a big meal in a long time. 1 miss it.”
Upon hearing Shen Yun’s words, Lin Wan’s mouth watered. She thought momentarily and said, “Yes, I’ll call Auntie Li at home and tell her. Then, we’ll have a feast.”
“Okay, okay. Let’s go to the restaurant we went to last time. Their Boiled Fish is very delicious,” 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 City’s 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.
“Wanwan, let’s take the escalator. It’s too crowded here,” Shen Yun suggested.
“Okay,” 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 restaurant’s 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.
“What’s wrong, Wanwan?” Shen Yun asked Lin Wan, as she was unaware of the situation. She then followed Lin Wan’s gaze.
At this moment, Xiao Yichen also saw Lin Wan not far away. He stopped in his tracks with a surprised expression.
Why is Wan’er here?
“Chen, what’s wrong?” Xu Yanxi saw Xiao Yichen stop and asked him with a smile.
Xiao Yichen didn’t answer Xu Yanxi’s 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 Yichen’s arm. He was holding a few shopping bags in his hand. It was obvious that those were shopping bags for women’s clothes.
So, the woman on the front page today is the woman beside him?
