Chapter 162 How did she know I had a son?
"Is that so?" Xu Ailin nodded seriously, though it was unclear whether she believed it or not.
Just when Han Wen thought he had finally gotten through it, he heard Xu Ailin suddenly say something.
"I remember your previous secretary was a graduate student from a prestigious 985 university. I never expected that someone with such a high level of education would be less capable than Du Yan, who only graduated from junior high school. It seems that education really doesn't represent everything."
Han Wen could already sense that the way people were looking at him was strange, but now he was in a difficult situation and could only pretend to be stupid.
He chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, academic qualifications don't mean anything."
But Xu Ailin abruptly changed the subject, her face hardening. "But you said it yourself, she's my best friend, not yours. It's not right for you to put my best friend by your side as your personal secretary!"
"Anyone who didn't know better would think you were having an affair with my best friend!"
Han Wen panicked and tried to explain, but Xu Ailin interrupted him by raising her hand.
“I can understand that you promoted her to secretary because you recognized her abilities.”
But Du Yan only has a junior high school education, which doesn't meet the company's rules and regulations. As the company boss, you should set a good example.
"Otherwise, if one's own conduct is not upright, how can one manage one's subordinates well?"
Han Wen was being lectured like a grandson by Xu Ailin in front of so many people, and he could hardly contain his anger.
I don't know if the other party noticed something, but their usually gentle and virtuous nature was as hard and stubborn as a rock today.
To embarrass him in front of so many people.
If he weren't afraid of being exposed, or if there weren't so many people around waiting to see him make a fool of himself, he would have definitely turned on them.
Du Yan never expected that Han Wen, who was so authoritative in front of her, would be so humble in front of Xu Ailin, not daring to utter a single word.
Du Yan's fingernails were almost torn apart. For a moment, she didn't know whether to blame Han Wen for being incompetent or to hate Xu Ailin for being unreasonable.
Just when she thought the matter was finally over, Du Yan planned to take the opportunity to leave.
By this time, she had long since abandoned any thought of protesting; she only wanted to leave as quickly as possible.
Han Wen couldn't stand up to Xu Ailin. If Ailin found out that she had stolen Xu Ailin's boyfriend years ago, she was afraid that Ailin would tear her apart in anger.
Just as Du Yan turned to leave, Xu Ailin called out to her, "Wait."
Xu Ailin approached Du Yan, reached out and yanked the necklace off her neck.
[Holy crap, Aunt Xu has a sharp eye; she actually spotted the blind spot.]
This is going to be interesting.
Xu Ailin fiddled with the necklace in her hand that was exactly the same as the one around her neck, her heart as cold as ice.
She slightly raised her eyes and looked at her husband, who had been pretending for so many years, and finally saw his expression change.
Xu Ailin felt only irony.
"Old Han, didn't you say that the necklace you gave me was a custom-made piece, one of a kind? Why does Du Yan have an identical one here too?"
What goes around comes around; the boomerang Han Wen released himself has finally returned to him.
【What else could it be? Of course, he wanted to save himself the trouble of giving one gift to both of you women at the same time!】
[And it's not a custom-made item at all; it's just a cheap product. Calling it custom-made makes it sound more upscale.]
[With his petty and stingy nature, he's even keeping a mistress? Only someone as shallow and ignorant as Du Yan would be with him. Anyone else would have dumped him long ago.]
Sigh, it's obvious Aunt Xu really loves this scoundrel. Otherwise, why would she wear something with no design and no value?
She's a famous designer, after all; you can tell whether something is good or bad at a glance.
Love makes people stupid, that's for sure!
Xu Lengyu looked at her mother with concern, feeling sorry for her.
Hearing Yuan Yangyang's thoughts, Xu Ailin could only manage a bitter smile.
She did recognize the necklace's value at a glance, but simply assumed that Han Wen didn't understand these things and had a typical male aesthetic sense.
She believes that as long as it is a token of the other person's goodwill, even if the item itself is not of high value, she will treat it as a treasure.
But she never considered that the other party wasn't unaware, but simply didn't want to put in the effort for her.
Yuan Yangyang is right, love has made her lose her mind.
That's why I've been fooled by this thing for so many years.
Fortunately, it's not too late to know the truth now; she won't let that scumbag and bitch get away with it.
Han Wen was sweating profusely when asked the question, and couldn't think of a way to respond for a moment.
Du Yan, quick-witted as ever, offered an explanation with an embarrassed smile.
"Oh dear, this is my fault. I saw that the necklace that President Han customized for you was so beautiful, so I found a small workshop and ordered the same one according to the design."
“Aren’t we best friends? I thought you wouldn’t mind this much. If you mind, I’ll give it to you.”
Du Yan was practically grinding her teeth to powder, but she still had to put on a smiling face and help Han Wen out of the predicament.
She tried to please Xu Ailin, whom she disliked.
She felt that she was about to suffer internal injuries and vomit blood due to the stagnation of her emotions.
I've never felt so frustrated before.
Xu Ailin looked at the other person with a half-smile, as if she were looking at a clown.
Just as Du Yan's stiff smile was about to crumble, he finally took pity and slowly opened his mouth.
"It seems you don't know me. I don't have a habit of sharing jewelry designs with others, especially the unique designs that my husband gave me. I would never share them with anyone else."
“Du Yan, I considered you a good friend, but I never expected you to be such a tactless person. Your behavior makes me think that you have feelings for Lao Han.”
Xu Ailin asked the other person with a disappointed look, "Are you eyeing him?"
Wow, that was exciting!
[Aunt Xu doesn't make a move unless she's absolutely certain of it, but when she does, it's a game-winning move!]
"What nonsense are you talking about? Du Yan and I are completely innocent! How can you slander me like this!"
After a brief moment of panic, Han Wen quickly found a way to deal with the situation.
He directly passed the problem to Xu Ailin, looking at her with a face full of disappointment.
It's as if the other person's distrust is a betrayal of their relationship.
He strikes a very good balance between being a loving and responsible husband and his wife.
Damn it! He got me!
My hands are itching so bad, I want to hit someone!
Du Yan quickly waved her hand in denial, her face turning deathly pale with fright.
"How could that be? Eileen, you must be joking. He's your husband, why would I covet him? Hehe!"
Xu Ailin ignored Han Wen's outbursts and feigned affection, giving him no room to maneuver.
Pressing on Du Yan's words, he continued, "Is that so? Then do you dare to swear in front of everyone that if you and Han Wen are not innocent, you will make sure your son gets hit by a car and is paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life!"
Du Yan's face was deathly pale, and her mind was completely blank.
I had only one thought in my mind: How did she know I had a son?
