Chapter 26 The Brightest Star Tonight (2)_1
The meeting place was still the suite where Han Jingnian often stayed. Zhang Te’s assistant had a room card, and without knocking, directly led Xia Wan’an in: "Mr. Han, isn’t your wife ultra-beautiful?!"
Why on earth does Zhang Te’s assistant utter so much nonsense?!
Xia Wan’an muttered under her breath, then instinctively raised her head to look inside the room.
Han Jingnian wasn’t at his desk anymore, rather he was sitting on the couch reviewing some files. He seemed to have specifically groomed himself; the tailored suit and white shirt made him look imposingly elegant.
Hearing the commotion of Zhang Te’s assistant, he looked towards the door. Upon his gaze meeting Xia Wan’an, there was a momentary pause, his eyes seemed to shimmer.
Xia Wan’an wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination. By the time she regained her senses and looked back at him, he had already shifted his gaze away. He shot Zhang Te’s assistant a sidelong glance, as if finding his question to be boring, and then lowered his head to continue reading the document in his hand.
Zhang Te’s assistant shut up, not daring to say any more. He just left a quick comment that he would call them when it was time, and then he slipped away.
Xia Wan’an stood at the entrance of the room. Seeing no reaction from Han Jingnian, as if she were invisible to him, she walked inside and found a spot farthest from him to sit down.
The room was very quiet, and the couch beneath her was quite comfortable. This sort of atmosphere was perfect for sleeping. Xia Wan’an grabbed a fluffy pillow and closed her eyes.
Han Jingnian, having finished reading the documents, raised his hand to rub his neck and inadvertently glanced at the girl nestled on the small couch not far away.
His hand movements suddenly stopped. It took a moment for him to cast his gaze on her face.
