An Encounter

She thought about how although she and Xia Wen had been together for so many years, it seemed that she was alone most of the time. Xia Wen would always be busy with the Xia family's matters and did not have much time for his own family. The two of them rarely went out for a meal on their own. In the past, they would have lunch together with their colleagues in the school canteen and then go back to the Xia family residence for dinner.
