Zhang Cheng is not in the company, and it seems like the majority of the staff in the general manager’s office are attending a eting. Those who are not at the eting are busy with their own work, so not many people noticed Xia Wan’an’s arrival.
Xia Wan’an didn’t disturb anyone either and went straight to Han Jingnian’s office.
The door to Han Jingnian’s office was open, and when Xia Wan’an got to the doorway, she could hear the voices of people talking inside.
"Mr. Han, I hope our cooperation this ti will be a pleasant one."
"Pleasant cooperation." The voice that followed was Han Jingnian’s.
Seeing that they were still talking about work, Xia Wan’an didn’t rush in to interrupt but instead leaned against the wall nearby, patiently waiting.
The conversation of the two people inside eventually turned from work to everyday matters.
"Mr. Han, you’ve been in charge of Han Family for ten years now, right?"
Without Han Jingnian speaking, Xia Wan’an could imagine him nodding slightly to the person asking the questions, even with her eyes closed.
"So Mr. Han is... 33 this year? Ti flies so fast. By my calculations, you’ve been married for seven years now, right? Do you have children? I bet you do. You’ve been married for seven years; your child must be in kindergarten by now?"
Han Jingnian finally spoke: "No."
"No? How co you don’t have kids yet? It becos tiring to have kids as you get older..."
Han Jingnian: "I’m not particularly fond of kids. So, I haven’t considered that matter."
"..."
This was the first ti Xia Wan’an had heard Han Jingnian talk to soone else about children.
In the first couple of years of their marriage, there was indeed a lot of inquisitiveness due to her not getting pregnant, and so people, after hearing certain rumors, knew about her health issues preventing her from having children, would whisper behind her back.
Hearing those whispers was hard, but she would try everything possible just to avoid taking those words to heart.
Later on, she gradually stopped hearing people ask them why they hadn’t had a child yet in her presence, and nobody ntioned anything about Mrs. Han’s inability to bear children...
She had always thought that everyone had gradually co to know and stopped ntioning it around her, but now she realized that it seed like those in Han Family company who originally gossiped about her inability to have children had one by one left the company. And the new hires had long forgotten those past issues, and the situation was similar with Han Jingnian’s business partners...
So say that being in a relationship with a man like Han Jingnian must be exhausting; he speaks little and is cold.
But Xia Wan’an knows how blissful it is to spend a lifeti with a man like Han Jingnian.
He’s considerate and gentle, understanding that gossip can be an invisible dagger, and he quietly keeps all those daggers out of her world.
Seven-year itch? With a man like him, there’s no chance for a seven-year itch in a lifeti... because you don’t get the opportunity.
Only after the business partner left did Xia Wan’an enter the office.
Upon seeing her, Han Jingnian naturally waved her over. When she ca close, he pulled her onto his lap and wrapped his arms around her, silently staring at the computer, continuing his work.
Xia Wan’an was used to their way of being together; she didn’t say anything to disturb Han Jingnian, snuggling in his embrace, scrolling through her phone, admiring her husband’s handso face, and then naturally dozing off in his arms.
