As soon as Ruan Meilin entered the company, she could already feel the eyes of the people around her. They looked at her weirdly making her feel a little uncomfortable. She hadn't been in the company for a while now.

First, she was handling things for the company abroad and when she finally came back, Shui Xian sent her to the branch company in another province to supervise another project. During her last stay, she did get to know about the woman with whom Shui Xian was in a relationship. She did meet Shui Xian's sister but it was useless.

She didn't know whether Amiah really didn't know anything or she didn't want to share anything with her. She couldn't rule out both the possibilities. After all, Amiah was estranged from her family for years. And no matter how close she was to her brother, it couldn't be certain that Shui Xian would share about his relationship with her. As for the second possibility, that was even more likely since Amiah had always been a bit protective when it came to her brother.

So, she wasn't surprised that Amiah won't open her mouth to share Shui Xian's personal matters with anyone.

But right now, she had an inkling that whatever the matter was, it was not good for her. She could feel those gazes of pity directed towards her. But more than pity, she received disdainful and gloating. And that made her certain that something was definitely going on which she didn't know about.

The first thing she did was to find the colleagues she was closed to and only then did she learn about the things that happened the other day at the company. She was so shocked that she didn't know how to react for a long while.

She had been deluding herself all this time that Shui Xian lied to her about his relationship just because he didn't want to be entangled with her. That made her hatred for Shui Xian's ex-wife burn even more intensely.

Right now, she was actually panicking. She recently learned that Shui Xian's ex-wife, Tang Hebe was back in the country for a few months now. When she picked up Shui Xian's phone last time, she didn't know that Tang Hebe was back. And listening to that voice, she actually didn't connect it with Tang Hebe as well.

But now, she was feeling like she might be wrong. That woman had to be Tang Hebe. There was only one woman whom Shui Xian would call his wife and that was Tang Hebe. She always blamed Tang Hebe for leaving a shadow of her presence in Shui Xian's heart even when she left him. It was the reason he was so unwilling to give her a chance.

She felt so powerless at the thought that now that Tang Hebe is back in Shui Xian's life, she definitely had no chance at all.

Obviously, she had imagined up all this on her own. But it was enough to make her feel hurt. But if only she knew that the woman in Shui Xian's life was definitely not Tang Hebe, she might have collapsed. After all, she had spent years with him and he never even looked at her even after all her efforts. But another woman managed to enter his life all of a sudden.

Even when she went to see Shui Xian, he only talked about work and didn't even give her a minute to talk about anything else. But even when they were working, Ruan Meilin could see that something about Shui Xian was different. He looked a lot mellower and easygoing.

Although there wasn't a smile on his face, there wasn't any coldness radiating from him either. If anything, he gave off a peaceful and comfortable feeling. He seemed a lot more approachable than before. This change reminded her of the Shui Xian of his youth who was cheerful and lively.

Ruan Meilin felt so bitter inside when she thought about this. How come Tang Hebe still had this effect on him? How come only that woman was able to bring this kind of Shui Xian out of his shell? Why? Didn't she hurt him enough? Then why was he willing to forget all about it? Did he love her so much? If yes, then why?

If only Shui Xian knew what she was thinking, he would have loved to roll his eyes. He definitely wasn't a masochist. Why would he want to get back together with someone who hurt him? Wasn't that like asking for another heartbreak?

"Xian!"

Shui Xian had just walked out of his office when Ruan Meilin called out to him. Shui Xian was unwilling but he still stopped.

"Yes?"

"I heard Tang Hebe..."

Before she could continue, Shui Xian's phone rang. It was a special ringtone he had set for Raelle's contact. So, without even paying attention to Ruan Meilin's words, he instantly took out his phone and took the call.

"Hello?"

"Hubby, are you done with work?" came Raelle's voice from the other side.

"Yes," answered Shui Xian with a muffled smile. "I'm just about to leave now."

"Oh, then come down," said Raelle.

"Huh?" Shui Xian didn't understand her words.

"I'm waiting outside," added Raelle.

Shui Xian was stunned for a second before his eyes brightened, "I'll be right there!" He looked at Ruan Meilin who was staring at him and said, "If it's nothing urgent, let's talk about it tomorrow." With that, he pressed the button of the elevator and got in. He didn't even bother seeing how Ruan Meilin reacted.

It was none of his concern. His only concern at the moment was that his dear wife had actually come to his office to pick him up! Do you hear that? His Raelle was here for him!!! He was so excited about this thought that he wanted to shout this to the whole world.. It's a good thing that he was alone in the elevator or else people would get to see that goofy smile on his face which was so not like him.
