Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun had a lunch meeting with a client. They were in a restaurant and when they client left, they had their lunch again as they ate too little with the clients.
"Did you talk to Zixin?" Song Xueyun asked her husband. She had asked him this question a lot of times since this morning.
"He is busy with his work. He said he will call me when he has time, "Han Nanxian said to her. "Focus on eating. We should not worry about someone else's life."
Song Xueyun frowned. It was not just someone else but Han Zixin. He was like a brother to her and now he was her brother-in-law. It was natural that she would be worried about him. This time she was not worried but curious about his matter. She wanted to ask so many questions but she didn't know how and when to ask. Her husband was not even curious about such an important matter. What did she do to this man to make him as curious about Han Zixin's matter as she was?
Han Nanxian sighed. "If you can't wait, why don't you call Xiulan?"
Song Xueyun inwardly pouted. How could she call Xiulan? Her bestie was a mean bitch who just threw the bait and didn't clear anything. Last night when she was on a video call with An Xiulan, the latter was trying to tell her something but then An Qinyan disturbed them and the matter was paused. The three girls tried calling An Xiulan again but their questions weren't answered as she got busy with other things.
"Do you think I didn't call her?" Song Xueyun asked him. How was it possible that she would not call An Xiulan? She called An Xiulan until the latter was forced to pick. But when she asked him the question, the mean bestie replied by saying that she would tell the full story when she would get the same in return, and this way Song Xueyun was forced to withdraw.
Now that An Xiulan was not telling her anything, she turned to her husband and asked him to call Han Zixin and inquire about this matter but her husband had no sense of crisis at all. He didn't show any kind of interest in this. How could he do this?
"Stop getting angry, "Han Nanxian said softly. "Eat this."
Song Xueyun opened her mouth and he fed her. She was chewing angrily while he was trying to coax her. "You call him. I want to know. I know something has happened to her. There is no one who knows her matters more than him. " Then she asked, "Do you think they finally came into a relationship?"
"Isn't that what you want to ask them?" Han Nanxian asked. "If she says no, it means they aren't in a relationship. If she doesn't answer this question, it means they are probably in a relationship as if they weren't they would directly say no."
Song Xueyun sighed. "I don't want probability. I want a surety. I want to know what happened. How it happened."
Han Nanxian softly tickled her cheek and said, "Have you heard about curiosity killing the cat?"
In the end, Song Xueyun had to drop the topic as someone wanted to talk about themselves, not about others. Things these men made poor women like her do.
"How comfortable are you with being the face of your company in China?" Song Xueyun asked him. Not many people knew what the CEO Han looked like or who he was as there was no name or picture of him anywhere. However, today he attended a meeting instead of sending his employee. She was surprised and wanted to know what he was thinking. She knew that whatever he would be thinking, it would be out of normal people's heads as genius like him had their own manner of thinking.
"It was just attending a meeting, "Han Nanxian said. "This is a very potential project. I don't want to lose it. But they didn't want a meeting with my Vice president. In the end, I had to come but we scored the deal. What else can we ask for?"
"This means you want to stay mysterious, "Song Xueyun pondered.
"I just want to have a normal life which is not possible being the CEO of a company, "Han Nanxian answered.
Song Xueyun nodded her head as if she was understanding what he was saying. Soon, they finished their lunch and left the private dining table to go back to the office. As they were leaving the private room, he saw someone he didn't expect he would see anytime soon. But they say that the world is round and you meet everyone you don't want to at one point in time.
Han Ziqiu, who was also known as Han Nanxian's biological father and Han Qian's only son was standing in front of the boy who he had disowned a few years ago. He had not heard from anyone that his son had returned to China. Even if he had known, what could have changed anyway?
Han Nanxian nodded his head and was about to leave without saying a word when Han Ziqiu said, "Now you won't even greet me."
Han Nanxian paused. He turned to look at his father and said with a smile stuck on his face, "Hello, father. How are you doing?"
Han Ziqiu could sense a hint of complaint in these words. He didn't know why but he wanted Han Nanxian to complain about the way he treated him. All his life, Han Nanxian expressed his dislike about the way he treated Han Zixin but he didn't say a word of anger or hate when he disowned him. It made him feel that Han Nanxian, the boy for whom he crossed all the limits, didn't even care for him.
In the end, Han Nanxian's love for an illegitimate brother won over the love for a father.
Song Xueyun felt a lot of buried feelings between the two men. As if they were about to cross the bridge that was not letting them put those feelings out, a lady in a pink cheongsam arrived with a little girl in his arms.
"Honey, Qiqi is not calming down, "The lady said in a voice full of distress.
Han Nanxian stiffened as he looked at the woman who was in her youth and looked just like his dead mother. When his mother died, she was this woman's age. He could clearly see why his father had married this woman. His father's obsession with his dead mother was finally cured by the doppelganger. Actually, he had nothing against this woman. All his anger was directed at his father but somewhere he felt that he had no right to be angry at his father as the latter's obsession kept him alive till this day. If he wasn't her mother's son, Han Nanxian would have died a long time ago.
"Yiyi, meet Nanxian, "Han Ziqiu introduced his son with his wife.
Mrs. Han looked at the handsome young man and smiled at him, "You look really like your father." As she understood what she said, she added, "It's nice to meet you."
Han Nanxian nodded his head.
Mrs. Han didn't mind his curt tone. She looked at the woman standing beside him and furrowed her brows as felt like she looked familiar.
"I am his wife, "Song Xueyun introduced herself.
Han Ziqiu looked at Han Nanxian with a raised brow when Song Xueyun said this. Perhaps, he wanted to complain about why he was not invited to the wedding but Han Nanxian didn't give him any chance to continue the conversation.
"It was nice meeting you all, "Han Nanxian said, holding his wife's hand. "We will take our leave."
As Han Zixin and Song Xueyun were leaving, Han Ziqiu said from behind, "Won't you meet your little sibling?"
Song Xueyun felt Han Nanxian stopping and tightening his hold on her hand. She looked up to find his face full of contemplation. She had an idea about what he would do and he did exactly that as she knew. He turned around to stare at the little girl with brown eyes that resembled his and Han Zixin's. As if the girl could feel a stare on her, she stopped fussing around in her mother's arms and blinked those big honey eyes at him full of curiosity. She hadn't met this person before but he looked so much like her father that she jumped out of her mother's arms and lunged towards him.
Thankfully, Han Nanxian caught her on time or Mrs. Han would have had a heart attack right there.
"Qiqi, how many times have I told you not to do this?" Mrs. Han scolded her daughter.
The little girl had a temper as she ignored her mother and looked curiously at Han Nanxian who she was trying to figure out. After staring back at each other for a while when she didn't find out anything, she turned to look at her father and said, "Dada?"
"That's Gege, "Han Ziqiu said.
The little girl turned to look at Han Nanxian and repeated the word that she heard for the first time, "Gege?"
And just like this Song Xueyun knew that another girl made a permanent place for herself in his heart. She shook her head at the fact that Han Nanxian was nothing but a sucker for his siblings.
_____
A/N: Some people have so much love to give and Han Nanxian was one of them. Trying not to give her a chance to his Little sister to make a place in his life would be equal to what Han Ziqiu did to Han Zixin because of his mother.
