“Exactly,” Mrs. He said, also smiling. “When I heard my husband say before that Mr. Wang had returned to the country, I was very excited. I have always been your fan, and when I heard that my husband was planning on inviting you to the dinner party, I was extremely happy. I thought I could finally meet my idol in person. Alas, you were planning to return to America after the New Year. I was still considering whether to ask my husband to bring me to visit you privately—being able to meet you once is good enough—but that was only wishful thinking, really. I know that that would also have been very inconvenient.”
Mrs. He could not hide the disappointment on her face, but she very quickly smiled again. “I did not think that you would be able to participate in the end. It made me extremely happy. Please take a photo with me later, then give me an autograph.”
Lu Qiyuan was very shocked.
This man was actually invited, and he was personally invited by Mayor He!
In Lu Qiyuan’s case, it was just the Mayor’s secretary who came over to ask if he had time, but Wang Juhuai had actually been personally invited by Mayor He!
Who was he?!
“You’re overexaggerating my talents,” Wang Juhuai said humbly. “Originally, I was indeed planning on returning to America on the seventh day after the New Year, but I did not think that I would reunite with Xiao Xia again, so I decided not to go back.”
“Xiao Xia?” Mrs. He asked in shock.
Xia Qingwei kept maintaining a polite smile by Wang Juhuai’s side.
She did not know Mayor He and Mrs. He, so she did not cut in.
But she did not show any unsuitable behavior at the side and still stayed very polite.
Wang Juhuai introduced them to Xia Qingwei at a suitable time. “It’s this lady, my wife, Xia Qingwei.”
Mayor He and Mrs. He were both surprised. Mayor He asked in shock, “Mr. Wang is actually already married?”
Mayor He and Mrs. He were merely shocked, but Lu Qiyuan was so absolutely stunned that he was stood on the spot, his face extremely stiff.
Xia Qingwei had actually gotten married with this man!
They had known each other for only a short time yet they were already married!
He had been divorced from Xia Qingwei for over ten years and had never thought that Xia Qingwei would marry again.
After all, Xia Qingwei had been single for so long already. Even though she had already become his ex-wife, he had never thought that she would marry someone else.
Before, just thinking about Xia Qingwei marrying again made him feel like he was being betrayed.
But now, Xia Qingwei had actually really gotten married!
And she was now standing by the man’s side, looking happy and shy!
How could she get married?!
How could she get married to another man?!
Lu Qiyuan was extremely angry. His whole body was stiff as he stared at Xia Qingwei and Wang Juhuai.
Wang Juhuai acted like he did not notice and smiled with satisfaction and happiness. “That’s right. I did not think that I would be able to reunite with Xiao Xia after coming back to the country this time.”
“Reunite… So, in the past, you two were—?” Mrs. He asked in surprise, smiling.
Xia Qingwei lowered her head, a slight elegant smile on her face.
Wang Juhuai lowered his head to look at Xia Qingwei, his gaze gentle and attractive.
Xia Qingwei also turned her head, her cheeks slightly red, and gently looked at him. She was very embarrassed, and she quickly smiled at Wang Juhuai. Whether it was her gaze or her smile, it was full of strong liking.
“We were lovers in the past. We separated only because of misunderstandings, and after that, we both had our own marriages. Coincidentally, we both also got divorced,” Wang Juhuai said.
Mrs. He was Wang Juhuai’s fan and knew that he had already been divorced for ten years.
“We’ve both been divorced for over ten years,” Wang Juhuai said.
Mrs. He was shocked. She did not think Xia Qingwei was in that situation as well.
But the two had been divorced for so long before getting back together only now. It must really not have been easy for them.
