Chapter 133 Respect Her, Be Considerate of Her (2)
She had been divorced from Song Guotao for some time, but she hadn’t yet reorganized the contacts in her phone. She hadn’t even mentioned their divorce to Song Guotao’s family and friends, nor had she contacted them during this period. She had no idea how Song Guotao had informed them about the divorce.
Why would Song Guotao’s mother call her at this time?
"Wanwan, are you free now? Can you talk?" As soon as the call connected, the noisy background of Ye Guihua’s location and her accented Mandarin came through.
"Mom, what’s the matter?" Mi Wan replied with a question, out of habit. The familiar term slipped out as soon as she opened her mouth, causing Mi Wan to pause. She shifted her gaze and met Ji Dongquan’s gaze. For some reason, she suddenly felt a pang of guilt as if she had done something wrong. She quickly diverted her gaze to the smooth tabletop in front of her.
"I heard Guotao was injured and hospitalized, and I couldn’t rest easy. I took the train to Jin City overnight." On the other end of the phone, Ye Guihua raised her voice to be heard over the noise of the train station. "I’m at the train station now, Wanwan, which hospital is Guotao in? Can you tell me how to get there, what transportation to take to find Guotao?"
Listening to Ye Guihua’s loud and urgent voice, Mi Wan hesitated for two or three seconds but couldn’t bring herself to be harsh. Imagining the kind-hearted Ye Guihua wandering helplessly in the crowded train station, Mi Wan’s heart softened instantly.
Song Guotao was Song Guotao. The matters between them had nothing to do with Ye Guihua. Moreover, Ye Guihua had always been good to her. Out of respect for the past, Mi Wan couldn’t ignore her.
"Mom, find a seat in the waiting hall of the train station and sit down. Don’t wander around. I’ll come to pick you up now."
Ye Guihua was illiterate. Although she had visited Jin City a few times before, each time either she or Song Guotao had picked her up directly from the station. She didn’t know her way around at all. Hence, Mi Wan wasn’t at ease letting her find Song Guotao on her own, and she needed to clarify their divorce to avoid any future misunderstandings or awkwardness.
