Yan Xia carefully thought about Jiang Huai’s work schedule before her shift. It was clearly scheduled for next week and there were no plans to go abroad in the near future.

Then why did he suddenly leave the country? He even had to catch the earliest flight in the morning.

Yan Xia’s thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the office door. She hung up the phone and let someone in.

It was Zhang Rui.

Young people were always full of energy. He smiled at everyone, revealing a row of bright white teeth. “Director.”

Yan Xia’s back was a little stiff after sitting for the whole morning. She adjusted her posture slightly to make herself more comfortable.

“What is it?”

Zhang Rui didn’t beat around the bush and said straightforwardly, “I mentioned to you before that I want to be Zhang Ying’s assistant. Have you considered it? I’ve talked to my supervisor, and he thinks I’m capable enough, so I’ll listen to you!”

The sudden formal ‘you’ made Yan Xia feel like she had aged a few years.

Before she could say anything, Zhang Rui continued, “I’ve checked Zhang Ying’s recent schedule online. Zhang Ying has a piano concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London in the next two days. She’ll be returning to China after the concert, which is within these two days.”

Zhang Rui put on a pitiful look and acted coquettishly, “Director, just agree. I promise I’ll work hard and try not to make any mistakes!”

Yan Xia was very serious about her work. She had carefully selected the people under her. She liked smart, sensible, and insightful people who were more flexible and able to deal with unexpected situations.

Zhang Rui was bold and careful, and he knew how to fight for himself. Yan Xia liked this, so she signed his transfer order.

Yan Xia was the only one left in the office, so she had the time to think about the question again.

So Jiang Huai suddenly went overseas to attend Zhang Ying’s piano concert.

It was no wonder Liu Yu complained about how Jiang Huai had to finish his three days of work in one day just to free up some time so that he could watch Zhang Ying’s piano performance.

She thought about how he had suddenly stood her up when they had agreed to have dinner together and made her walk back alone on the street on Christmas Eve.

It was so obvious whether he loved someone or not. In order not to disappoint the person he liked, he would find time to accompany her no matter how busy he was. However, he was unwilling to accompany someone he didn’t like, no matter how free he was.

Just as she was thinking about this, Gu Ling called. Yan Xia felt that it was such a coincidence.

“Mom, what’s the matter?”

“You didn’t look too good at the banquet, so I called to ask you.”

“It’s just a normal stomach problem. It’s fine.”

There was some hesitation on the other end of the phone. Yan Xia guessed that her mother might have something to say, but she stammered and didn’t know how to start.

“Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

Mother Yan finally spoke. “Xia Xia, you’ve been married to Jiang Huai for three years. Even if you don’t have feelings for him, it’s already a habit. Please don’t make any mistakes at this time.”

Yan Xia was confused. “What do you mean? Did someone gossip about you?”

“No, it was actually Wu Chen. After the banquet ended and you all left, Wu Chen came to me and asked for your contact information, but I didn’t give it to him. Xia Xia, don’t ever think about unrealistic things again, and live your life well. I can see that Jiang Huai still treats you very well. Don’t let Wu Chen create a rift between you two.”

Yan Xia rolled her eyes in her heart. She couldn’t understand the situation. How was Jiang Huai nice to her?

However, she did not expect Wu Chen to ask for her contact information.

After that incident, Yan Xia cut off all contact with Wu Chen. On one hand, she wanted to prove her innocence. On the other hand, she was worried that Jiang Huai would overthink things.

“The most important thing for you now is to give birth to the child of the Jiang family,” Mother Yan continued. “If you could keep the child from back then, Jiang Huai wouldn’t turn a blind eye to our family.”

A child, a child again!

Having a child wasn’t her problem alone. Jiang Huai was the one who didn’t want to, so why did everyone say that it was her problem?

“Enough! You shouldn’t have gone to Jiang Huai in the first place and used the child to force him to marry me!”

Yan Xia was upset. She wanted to say force a man who didn’t love her to marry her, but both of them were in pain.
