On a hazy autumn night, cold rain fell, making the temperature drop even lower. One could feel the humidity just by standing at the staircase beside the door.
The guests had already left and the whole place became quiet again as it was starting to get late.
Han Yifeng stayed by the staircase for a really long time without going anywhere.
“CEO Han, the banquet has ended. The elders are very unhappy since the guests were gossiping as well. You…” Secretary Wang seemed worried when he looked at Han Yifeng.
Today was the full moon celebration of the Han family’s little master. However, Han Yifeng did not appear for the banquet and had only shown up after it ended. Huang Ziyao and the others bugged Secretary Wang many times already while Xi Xinyi also endured her frustration throughout the night.
“They insisted on having this. What does it have to do with me?” Han Yifeng’s expression was cold. He did not intend to do this, but they left him no choice.
“But, CEO Han, that’s your son after all… Isn’t it unfair for you to treat him this way?” Secretary Wang hesitated, feeling sympathy for the little boy as he received such treatment from his parents at such a young age. “By the way, the little master still doesn’t have a name. The Elder nicknamed him Tuantuan for now. CEO Han, the child is innocent.”
Han Yifeng put on a cold smile as he turned toward Secretary Wang. “Since when were you so full of love? Did Xi Xinyi or anyone give you any benefits?”
Han Yifeng’s words stunned Secretary Wang who lowered his head silently.
“I hope you can focus on doing your job. You’re my secretary and not their spy! If you can’t be sure about your role, you can pack up and go work for them starting tomorrow!” Han Yifeng’s voice was filled with coldness and a tint of anger.
In shock, Secretary Wang’s expression changed as he quickly bowed and apologized, “I’m sorry, CEO Han. Please forgive me!”
Han Yifeng looked away. He became really cold. Now, he relished the quiet and was much more difficult to approach than before. Even Secretary Wang felt afraid to be with him.
His change started after he married Xi Xinyi, everything just went downhill from there on.
“CEO Han, Director Xi asked her assistant, Xiao Mei, to deliver some gifts. Mayor Xi sent Little Master a gift as well.” Secretary Wang carefully handed it over to him.
Han Yifeng squinted as he looked at the gifts in Secretary Wang’s hands quietly. Secretary Wang took a peek at him before carefully opening one of the boxes. The first one was an exquisite-looking gold lock which should be from Xi Mushan.
The second one was a pair of jade bangles which should be from Xi Xiaye.
“She didn’t come?”
Han Yifeng’s expression softened slightly when he saw the gifts, but his eyes were still filled with mixed emotions when he asked.
“Chairman Mu is abroad while Director Xi is not really mobile with her pregnancy, so they didn’t come. Assistant Xiao Mei also told me to express their apologies as well as their gratitude for inviting them,” Secretary Wang spoke as he quietly observed Han Yifeng’s expression.
Han Yifeng went quiet. He then waved his hand, signaling Secretary Wang to pack them up. However, as he just closed the box, a pink figure rushed over. Secretary Wang could smell a whiff of perfume around, and in the next moment, something crashed right into him.
The stuff in his hands fell all over the floor!
“Who needs her ingenuine gifts?” A cold voice broke the silence as his cold aura caught Secretary Wang off-guard. He stared at the gifts blankly and was not sure what to do.
Suddenly, he heard Han Yifeng’s voice as he tried to look up at him. “What are you doing?” Han Yifeng looked at Xi Xinyi expressionlessly.
It was obvious that Xi Xinyi had just come from the banquet venue as she still had her pink dress on. She was recovering well from her pregnancy although there were still some signs of weight gain. She now wore another layer of charm. With a new hairstyle and her exceptional beauty, she looked amazing.
“What am I doing? This! Who cares about her gifts? Have you gone mad the moment you heard her name? Are you looking for trouble by not showing up at all, Han Yifeng?” Her tone was filled with anger and frustration as her face was turning red and ferocious.
“Trouble? Did I agree to organize this banquet? It’s what you guys wanted. You should be grateful that I didn’t ruin it.” Han Yifeng’s reaction was cold. He glanced at Secretary Wang who then started picking up the gifts on the floor.
“Don’t forget. You guys made Secretary Wang send them the invitation, not me. What you just threw were gifts from your father and Mu Yuchen.”
“I don’t need their stuff! Han Yifeng, are you doing this on purpose? You’re trying to embarrass me and the Han family, and then try to blame everything onto me. Is that what you’re trying to do?”
Xi Xinyi clenched her fists as she stared at Han Yifeng. Tears started gathering around her eyes. “Do you know how people were laughing at me tonight? How people were laughing at the Han family? Do you know how angry and disappointed our parents are?”
“Don’t you guys foresee this happening already? Why should I cooperate? You guys decided for me to get married, and you guys also decided to keep the child. Why should I cooperate for you guys to make decisions for me? Do I look like a fool!? I just want to live my own life!” Han Yifeng demanded in a mocking tone.
