Tan Wan's words actually stunned me. I subconsciously asked: "Aren't you married?"
said: It's already been two years since my current husband and I have separated. Little Wei, we only need to go through the necessary procedures to end the relationship between the two of us, and in all of these years, I have never once forgotten Yu Jin. How could a person do such a thing like that?
Speaking to here, Tan Wan mocked herself on the phone, "I don't know why, but at this age, you actually became so much braver. I often ask myself, what can self-esteem be used for, it never makes you happy."
I said, "Sister, I really don't know how to tell you this. If you were to divorce my brother, I don't think it's necessary at all. It would be too much of a sacrifice."
When Tan Wan heard me say this, she immediately responded anxiously, "I don't think it's a big sacrifice at all. What I want to ask you now is, does your brother have anyone he likes?"
I really don't know how I should explain this to her. In my relationship with Yu Jin, telling her or not would both be an injury.
I fell silent.
Seeing that I did not say anything, Tan Wan hesitated on the phone and asked: "Yes …. Is there one? "
I could only exhort her to say, "He's only been widowed for two months. He promised himself he wouldn't marry her for five years, so Sister Aster. If you are to act like this, this matter will be hard to say. "
She seemed relieved to hear me say this, and she said, "I can wait, that's all right, as long as he doesn't have anyone he likes."
Actually, she already had an answer in her heart. She came to call me today just to get some information from me, so it would be useless for me to say anything to persuade her to give up. Just like how I advised her not to give up, she insisted on giving up.
I have already advised him otherwise, I really do not know what to say, at this time, Yumann Ting walked over, using her eyes to signal me that she has not called.
I immediately said to Tan Wan: "Sister Zhi, I still have some matters, I will hang up first."
She knew that Yu Jin was definitely bringing me out for social meetups, so she hurriedly said, "Alright, go quickly, don't wander around randomly. in case Yu Jin gets worried. "
After we hung up the phone, I stared at the message in my palm for a while. Yumann Ting tried to ask: "Who called?"
I put it away and said, "Just a friend."
Seeing that I wasn't willing to speak anymore, Yumann Ting didn't ask any further. After sending me to the private box, Yu Jin and Wu Zhijun were still discussing matters, so I didn't disturb them. When she sat down beside Yu Jin silently, he realized that I had returned, even though she wasn't looking at me. However, he still held my somewhat cold hand under the table.
After a while, although Ya Fei didn't say anything, he still covered me with the jacket from the back seat. When Wu Zhijun saw Yu Jin's actions, he also looked at me.
I don't really like the way Wu Zhijun looked at me.
Yu Jin gave me a bowl of soup on the table, then placed it in front of me. Only after continuing to chat with Wu Zhijun and the others, did Wu Zhijun's gaze finally move away from my face.
After the meal ended, we left the private room, but who would have known that as soon as we walked to the entrance of the main hall, I immediately saw Tan Wan who was waiting there. Yu Jin, who was standing beside me, felt that I had been stunned for a few seconds, and looked up along with me, and also saw Tan Wan.
When Tan Wan saw that we had come out, she quickly walked towards us. When she reached us, she immediately said to Yu Jin: "Yu Jin, I have something to tell you."
There was no smile on Tan Wan's face. It was very, very serious, which was very inconsistent with Tan Wan's personality.
Yu Jin seemed to have guessed something, and she lowered her head to look at me. Actually, I didn't do anything to let her down, I just subconsciously felt guilty, so I lowered my head.
When Wu Zhijun saw this situation, he looked at Yu Jin and then looked at Tan Wan who was standing in front of him. He laughed awkwardly and said to Yu Jin: "Since that's the case, then son-in-law, I'll be leaving first."
Yu Jin politely asked: "Do you need me to send you off?"
Wu Zhijun said: "No need, it's not early yet, let's go home early."
Wu Zhijun bid farewell to the Assistant Jiang, and led the people by his side out of the great hall and left the place.
They were also very observant, and the Assistant Jiang was a smart person, he had just touched Yu Jin's spear once, so naturally he did not dare to touch it again. Previously, he had been in a daze, so he had probably already flown over to He Min's side.
Yu Jin glanced at Jiang Hua with a smile. He said, "Assistant Jiang doesn't need to avoid suspicion. Although you are working at Yu Family, and have a good relationship with Wu Family, there is no reason why you should not be suspicious. After all, our two families are now linked, and even though our bones are broken, we are still connected together.
Yu Jin was completely confused by his words, I really couldn't understand them, but it was just that I couldn't understand it, and Jiang Hua could understand everything clearly. In the next second, he replied with extreme caution: "Boss Yu, you're mistaken, although CEO Wu and I know each other, we aren't on good terms, if you need me to communicate well with Boss Wu, I will definitely do my best."
A smart person and a smart person were having a conversation. It was like that. Every word that they said was full of meaning.
After Yu Jin heard these words, he smiled and said, "No need to be like this, Assistant Jiang only needs to maintain your normal warmth."
Then he said to me, "Let's go."
I looked at Jiang Hua, then looked at Yu Jin, and didn't understand the relationship between the two of them, so I could only follow beside Yu Jin. Although Yu Jin didn't reply to Tan Wan, he didn't make his decision, so Tan Wan followed behind us.
I stood there hesitating for a moment, but I did as he said.
Not long after, Yu Jin brought Tan Wan to the side for a chat.
I sat in the car and saw Yu Jin outside of the car. Tan Wan was standing in front of him with her head down, at the start, no one said a word, it took about five to six minutes for all the neon lights on the street to go out, leaving behind a few street lamps.
Tan Wan spoke, but I couldn't hear what she said. Sitting in the carriage, I could only feel her lips moving, and Yu Jin was also quietly listening, listening for quite a while.
Not knowing what the two were talking about, Yu Jin suddenly looked at me from outside the car, seemingly knowing that I was currently leaning on the window as he peeked at me. I subconsciously retreated under his gaze, and the gaze that Yu Jin used to look at me did not linger for long, as he turned his head to look at Tan Wan.
After about four to five minutes, Yu Jin and Tan Wan had finished talking. He opened the car door and got in, I looked out of the window, and saw that Tan Wan was also looking in my direction. She didn't know if it was because of the streetlights, but her face was a little pale. Her hands holding her bag were tense as she stared at them for a long time. In the end, she went back to the car on the side of the road and left before us.
I don't know what Yu Jin and Tan Wan talked about, but he didn't look so good when he got on the car, so I didn't dare to speak up.
Yu Jin seemed to want to smoke. Just as he held the lighter in his hand, he stopped and held the lighter in his hand, stroking it repeatedly.
After a long while, he said three words to the driver, "Drive."
After receiving his orders, the driver didn't dare to delay any longer. He started the car and left the Southern Cyanwood Forest.
When the carriage arrived at the villa, Yu Jin still did not speak. I followed him out of the carriage, and after entering the hall, the servant knew that it was his birthday. He walked over with a smile and said, "Mr. Yu, happy birthday!"
Yu Jin looked at the servant, made a sound of agreement, and then went back upstairs.
I stood alone in the living room. Not knowing what to do, the servant also felt that Yu Jin's mood had gone awry. She whispered to the side, "What's wrong?"
I didn't answer him. Maybe he thought that I told Tan Wan to come to the Southern Cyanwood Forest to find him.
I quickly went upstairs. Yu Jin was in the bathroom bathing, so I walked around a bit before finally sitting on the bed and waiting.
When Yu Jin came out, I immediately stood up from my bed, walked towards him, and hugged his body.
Yu Jin didn't move, but lowered his eyes and glanced at my hand that was hugging his body. Today is his birthday, I don't want things to become like this between us.
I explained, "I didn't ask her to come to you. When she called me. Asking where we are, I told her about the Southern Cyanwood Forest's guest courtyard, but who knew that she had other things to take care of? "
I hugged his waist and tightened my grip. I said, "Don't be angry with me. Next time, I will definitely be more careful and not cause you any more trouble."
However, it was rare for me to give in, but it wasn't of any use to Yu Jin. After hearing my words, he didn't have any reaction, and only replied me in a low voice: "I'm a little tired, go to sleep."
Then he took my hand and walked over to the other side of the bed.
I stood there looking at him for a long time.
After Yu Jin got onto the bed, he habitually flipped through the books for a while, and then laid down and rested.
In the next few days, Yu Jin did not treat me coldly or indifferently, it was only until three days later that I met Tan Wan. No, more accurately, she came to find me, I had just eaten lunch at a restaurant near the company, and was about to return to my office, but who would have thought that I would run into Tan Wan who just walked in.
I called out in surprise, "Sister Aster?"
When Tan Wan saw me, she smiled at me, but the smile on her face was a bit forced, and she said: "Little Wei, Sister Xi is looking for you, I have a phone call to talk to you about."
I feel like she is here to find me about Yu Jin, because Yu Jin is still fuming over what happened last time. I'm afraid that if he were to come into contact with Tan Wan again, he would be even more unhappy. This time I didn't think twice before saying, "I'm working again, Sister Aster. Why don't we have another day?"
Tan Wan held my hand and said: "Very soon, I won't waste your time."
She once again pulled me into the restaurant, and very quickly, she pulled me to sit at the dining table. After quickly ordering a few dishes, she looked at me and said: "Do you know what I talked about with Yu Jin that day?"
I'm not sure what they talked about that day, but Yu Jin didn't even mention a word to me when he went back, so I just shook my head.
Tan Wan said: "He said the person he likes is you."
Tan Wan's words made the hand that was holding the cup tremble. The cup of tea fell from my palm and fell onto the table. The tea surged towards me like a torrent.
My sudden action made everyone at the next table look over.
I was at a loss of what to do, so I took out a few paper napkins from the table, wiped the tea off the table, and smiled at Tan Wan: "Sister Xi, what are you talking about? Yu Jin is my blood brother, how could he possibly like me? "
Seeing my reaction, Tan Wan did not speak, and after a long while she said, "I forced him to ask. He admitted it herself. "
I denied, "Impossible! How could this be possible!? "
When Tan Wan saw that I was still not admitting it even when she was right in front of me, she said with a slightly injured expression, "Little Wei, don't deny it again. Actually, even to this day, I still don't understand the relationship between you and Yu Jin, I have also felt that it was weird. I have been with Yu Jin for four whole years and in my four years of college, he has never had a girlfriend. No matter how close you are with your family, you should at least have your own independent space. As for Yu Jin, your control over you has already exceeded everything that a person with the status of an elder brother should have. "
Tan Wan took out a newspaper from her bag, on it was a photo of me and Yu Jin's back from last time. Tan Wan said: "Others may not be able to recognize the person on top, but I do recognize that the woman in Yu Jin's embrace is you, right?"
I wanted to deny it, but I found that I couldn't say a word, because I didn't know how to refute Tan Wan at all.
Seeing my expression, Tan Wan said with a cold smile: "As expected, it's true. My guess was not wrong."
After a long moment, I squeezed out, "I'm sorry."
When Tan Wan heard my apology, she asked. "Why did you have to apologize to me?" Tan Wan laughed and said, "Don't think so narrowly of me. I am also someone who has lived for more than thirty years. I have already guessed that Yu Jin likes you, it's just that I don't dare to be sure about it. Furthermore, you don't have anything that would let me down, I see how things go, if I like you I like you if I don't like you I don't like you. " Speaking till here, Tan Wan felt slightly sympathetic, and even gloated: "It's quite tragic for Yu Jin, look at you being so afraid of this relationship, he must be very angry, right?"
I didn't think that Tan Wan was not surprised at all by our relationship and accepted it quickly, but I knew that she wasn't really angry. She wasn't that kind of person.
The advantage of a person like her was that she was free and easy. Once she obtained the result that she wanted, she would not feel troubled.
Seeing that I did not speak for a long time, Tan Wan knew that I was still a little unnatural. She did not continue, and changed the topic, chatting with me about something else.
After an unknown period of time, she received a call. Seemingly being called by another friend, she called the waiter to pay the bill and said, "Alright, Little Wei, Sister Aster doesn't want to chat anymore, but I still want to talk to you. Yu Jin has nothing to say to you, you grew up under his protection, he will give you whatever you lack, and with just a glance, he will understand what you want."
She sighed and said, "I was thinking. Even if he likes someone, so what? I still have to fight for him, but once I know that he's you, and I haven't even thought about the word fight before, I will immediately give up. I know very well about what kind of existence Yu Jin is, and I won't be stupid enough to fight with you about it. But he can also keep you even farther apart than strangers. "
As she said till here, Tan Wan shook her head and said: "However, I believe that Yu Jin himself will never let this kind of thing become a stumbling block for him."
Saying that, she stopped talking and wiped the bitter smile off her face. She turned her gaze away from the great banyan tree outside the restaurant and waved her hand at me. "He really left, Little Wei."
I got up from my chair and said, "Thank you, sister."
But Tan Wan did not turn to look at me. She waved back at me as she strode briskly forward.
She quickly bent over and entered the car, then drove away from the restaurant.
After a while, Good Qi called and urged me to go back to work. I quickly got up from my chair, took my bag and left the restaurant.
On the way back, I couldn't help but call Yu Jin. He answered the call with an indifferent and cold voice.
I whispered, "Today, Tan Wan came to find me."
Yu Jin replied, "Mhm. "So?"
And I said, "That day... Did you and her acknowledge our relationship? "
Yu Jin asked again: "Is there a problem?"
I quickly said, "No problem."
He said, "Since there's no problem, I'm hanging up."
Before he hung up the phone, I hurriedly said: "I'm in the wrong. I should have immediately refused to tell Tan Wan not to come over that day. Next time I won't be so hesitant. "
