The moment Li Hanyan sat down, the dishes were already served. Before she came, Pei Yun had already taken care of everything cordially, even such a small matter as ordering food in place of her.
Seeing that she didn't like to eat anything in front of her, Li Hanyan didn't know what to say either.
Pei Yun still maintained the habit of staying with her a few years ago, but after so much time had passed, she had already stopped liking some things he liked to eat.
"Why aren't you eating?"
Seeing that she was not moving, Pei Yun asked in detail, which was very considerate.
"I don't like it."
Li Hanyan's answer was straightforward, she did not want to be wronged.
"Impossible."
Pei Yun only smiled, not caring at all.
He only wanted to eat the things that Li Hanyan liked to eat the most, in order to make Li Hanyan believe that he still loved her, it was not easy to remember all these things.
Li Hanyan smiled bitterly, and did not explain anything as she placed all the things she did not like to eat into her mouth. Only then did Pei Yun feel satisfied, and felt that Li Hanyan had done it on purpose.
"Pei Yun, you are here too?"
A colorfully dressed woman walked over and hugged Pei Yun's neck from behind. Her cheek rested on Pei Yun's face as she looked at him with eyes that flashed with a cold light.
"This is a good show!"
Dongfang Yuan said excitedly, the four of them carefully looked over and understood that the battle was about to begin.
Zhong Wentao roughly knew who the woman was and broke into a cold sweat for Li Hanyan. The rest of the people did not understand that they were just thinking that it was fun to watch, even Qin Mingzhu felt a little better.
As expected, gossip was the best medicine to treat women, Zhong Wentao was enlightened on this point.
"Why are you here?"
Pei Yun said coldly, he was not satisfied with the appearance of the woman.
This was his wife, who was on the verge of divorce. The procedures were being completed, but she was still legally a husband and wife.
The woman did not care about his cold tone, and only looked at Li Hanyan as she spoke: "This young lady enjoys a great reputation, to be able to be together with a married man, I believe you are not an ordinary girl."
"What, you asked for your Second Aunt? Your eyesight is not bad, you really do look like a third child. "
"What did you say!"
Li Hanyan said coldly. She just came over to eat and didn't do anything.
Although she wanted to let Pei Yun's wife find out that there was a woman outside of Pei Yun's home to divorce him, but even if Pei Yun did divorce his, she would not agree to reunite with him.
Who would have thought that they would be captured by her wife like this? She wouldn't feel wronged even if she was treated as a mistress.
"What? Such a beautiful girl like you can't use your ears? No wonder I was able to listen to his sweet words and fall in love one after another."
These words were extremely ear-piercing, but Li Hanyan knew that Pei Yun had always been like that.
She didn't need to eat anymore. It was enough to save her stomach.
Just as I was about to speak out to thank the woman for saving my life, Pei Yun suddenly spoke up: "Don't go overboard, this is my most beloved person, if it wasn't for your father's rights, I wouldn't have separated from her, and now she has come to find me, we will be together again, you should sign for a divorce as soon as possible."
These words were said with tenderness, and it seemed like he wanted to kill Li Hanyan.
What do you mean she's back? When did she come back?
She stood up and threw her napkin on the steak plate in front of Pei Yun, expressing her dissatisfaction.
The other customers in the restaurant did not eat. They were all in high spirits as they watched the situation.
"Han Yan, don't leave. He should be the one leaving."
Pei Yun shouted, the scene became even more intense.
Li Hanyan covered her heart, almost fainting on the spot.
She just wanted to leave quickly. She didn't want to stay any longer.
"Silly girl, it's my mistake to let you eat alone, but you don't need to fight against people you don't know. It's your fault to make them misunderstand."
He supported Li Hanyan's trembling arm with his hand. From all angles, it looked extremely ambiguous, but only Li Hanyan knew, other than holding her hand, Zhong Wentao did not do anything intimate to her. This was a true gentleman.
"It's you!"
Recognizing Zhong Wentao, Pei Yun's face became even uglier.
Li Hanyan walked behind Zhong Wentao, causing the spectators to become even more curious.
"CEO Pei, I hope you can keep your distance from my girlfriend in the future. Although she is a doctor and not a philanthropist, she can treat your illness, so you should keep her company for free."
When he said that, the people in the restaurant immediately started discussing, everyone was confused by Zhong Wentao's words, thinking that Pei Yun was Li Hanyan's doctor, using the excuse of thanking him for inviting him out to eat, but who would have thought that before doing anything, he would be captured by his own wife, wasn't this guy useless?
Pei Yun did not expect to say these words, and actually lost the initiative.
No one believed anything he said.
On the other hand, Feng Chen and the other two were also very surprised. They didn't see Zhong Wentao walk over at all, and when they realised it, Zhong Wentao had already entered into the drama.
"I don't understand what you mean, Han Yan is my girlfriend."
Pei Yun persisted, boasting shamelessly.
"Pei Yun, you are crazy!"
Li Hanyan said coldly, she did not recognize the person in front of him at all.
Pei Yun's wife was also not quiet, he pulled Pei Yun and said: "I know you dislike my father's death, you dislike me, and you don't want to be together with me. But I have money, so I give you my house, car, and land.
"Really?"
Pei Yun was shocked, he could not believe it.
He had thought that his wife, who had no value in her usage, would still have so much wealth. This was a precious mine.
Compared to his youthful love, he couldn't even compare himself to money.
"Hur hur."
The woman laughed, full of disdain for Pei Yun.
But Pei Yun didn't care, he just kept asking if these assets really existed, which made the spectators surprised. They had never seen such a humble man.
Li Hanyan retreated in pain, her face full of tears. What else could be more painful than watching her lover fall to such a state. Although she didn't love the current Pei Yun, her memory of his beautiful Pei Yun was also shattered, which dealt a great blow to her.
Zhong Wentao turned around and embraced her, giving her comfort without a sound.
In the end, Pei Yun's wife took out all the property certificates. Pei Yun nodded and left with the woman, just like a dog wagging its tail.
"Let's go as well."
Zhong Wentao said softly, planning to send Li Hanyan back.
Nodding lightly, Li Hanyan obediently followed Zhong Wentao out of the restaurant.
He then looked at Feng Chen and indicated that he should leave first. Feng Chen made a gesture, and would send Qin Mingzhu back safely.
Just as he walked out of the restaurant and went to the parking lot to retrieve his car, he saw Pei Yun's sorry state. His wife continuously slapped his face and he just stood there bearing it, as if he was already used to it.
"I think I'll go up."
Li Hanyan quickly turned her body, she could not bear to watch this scene.
The more Pei Yun was bedraggled, the more miserable she felt his past self was.
"The car is there."
Zhong Wentao pulled him and insisted.
Li Hanyan looked at him with misty eyes, causing his heartbeat to race. Unconsciously, she looked at Li Hanyan, attracted to her.
It was unknown who was the one that was slowly approaching. The distance between the two of them was getting closer and closer, and they could feel each other's breathing.
They all understood that they shouldn't do this, but they didn't know why their bodies couldn't control themselves. They could only close their eyes and slowly approach.
A second before the kiss, his phone rang, startling both of them.
They all took a few steps back as Zhong Wentao answered the phone. Li Hanyan looked down at the surroundings, feeling very embarrassed.
They almost … He nearly kissed her!
The phone call was from Bai Shiyun, causing Zhong Wentao to feel extremely sorry.
He hadn't even kissed Bai Shiyun before, so how could he be disordered all of a sudden?
With his relationship with Li Hanyan, if he really did kiss her, then they would not meet again in the future.
"Wen Tao, where are you?"
After being busy for an entire day, Bai Shiyun also found the time to call Zhong Wentao. It was just that she did not expect her boyfriend to be able to stabilize the situation for another woman.
"I have eaten with Feng Chen and the others, I will now send Doctor Li Hanyan home."
He didn't intend to hide anything by speaking directly.
Li Hanyan suddenly felt sad, and felt that it was even more so.
She loved Zhong Wentao, but Zhong Wentao loved others, just like how Pei Yun loved Pei Yun.
The call had only lasted for 10 minutes, Bai Shiyun reluctantly hung up the phone. She still had to go on a business trip tomorrow, but by the time Zhong Wentao finished the phone call and was about to leave with Li Hanyan, he realized that there was no one behind him, so Li Hanyan took the opportunity to slip away.
After hesitating for two minutes, he was the only one left in the parking lot, so he had to get in the car and leave.
In the Ciji Hall.
Everyone should be asleep by now, but there were still lights inside, and even cheers and laughter.
After parking the car, he quickly entered and saw Cheng Yang sitting on the sofa.
"Why did you come back?"
Zhong Wentao was very surprised.
Wasn't Cheng Yang supposed to be in Xiang Jiang at the moment, going on a business trip with Bai Shiyun tomorrow?
Cheng Yang was very dissatisfied with his reaction.
"Hey, you're too mean, I'm your number one good brother, you treat Zheng Yu better than me!"
Cheng Yang complained: "Do you think that I want to come back? It's the Old Master's eightieth birthday, he specifically wanted me to come back, he said that he can restore my identity as Third Young Master Cheng."
"For your identity?"
Zhong Wentao asked curiously.
"Bullshit!"
Cheng Yang raged.
If he had known earlier on that Zhong Wentao would treat him like that, he would not have come back!
The Cheng family had urged him several times, but he hadn't gone over. Instead, he had come to this crappy place. What was this supposed to be?
"Big Brother Zhong, what's that smell? It smells so good."
In order to help, Zhou Zihan smiled and spoke out, attracting everyone's attention.
Zhong Wentao was holding the egg yolk cake that he originally wanted to give to Zhou Zihan, but since Cheng Yang was angry, he directly offered to coax him, saying that he bought it on purpose when he sensed that Cheng Yang would return.
After biting off half of the egg yolks, Cheng Yang already naively believed it.
"It's Old Man Cheng's eightieth birthday. Do you want to come with me to join in the fun?"
After swallowing the Soup Dumplings, Cheng Yang asked with a smile.
