Xia Wanwan had always thought that after her engagement with Gu Junhan was canceled, and she had soothed Elder Master Gu, the matter was behind her. She had never expected Gu Junhan's stepmother, Wen Yanran, to come looking for her.
"Wanwan, I'd like to talk to you, if you have the time right now?" Wen Yanran's voice was gentle and warm, almost impossible to refuse.
"Someone is waiting for me downstairs, but a brief chat shouldn't be an issue."
In Xia Wanwan's office, Wen Yanran and she sat facing each other on the sofa. Both of them had polite yet distant expressions on their faces, even though they had almost become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
