The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 1334: Chapter 695: Mo Han and Wanwan Arc – Xi Mohan’s Phone Call

Not only does he speak little, but he is also clueless about romance, and even more so about a woman’s mind.

The crucial thing is... he is still an iceberg.

Yao Man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this point; to cry... because she felt sad about not gaining Xi Mohan’s approval.

But to laugh... should she really be happy that she discovered early on that Xi Mohan wasn’t the romantic type, thinking she would be unhappy if she were with him, and thus is she supposed to be grateful for having escaped from such misery?

Yet the thought of this man being with another woman in the future made her feel sad again.

There might not be any other time as complex as now; her emotions were incredibly tangled.

In the end, seeing Xi Mohan’s unchanged expression, Yao Man felt as if there was a lump of blood in her chest that she wanted to spit out. She quickly suppressed her impulse and said, "I seriously doubt you’ll end up being lonely all your life."

After finishing, she turned and left, high heels clicking, her posture proud and confident, completely unruffled.

Xi Mohan watched her retreating figure, his expression unchanged, but he thought her reaction was perfectly normal. If Yao Man had persisted, that would have been strange.

Even though Yao Man wasn’t his type, he recognized her efforts at work; he understood from work that Yao Man was such a proud woman.

In fact, Yao Man was perfect in every aspect, yet her pride made him feel they were incompatible.

Once Yao Man’s figure was about to disappear from sight, he returned to his room and shut the door.

Compared to a strong woman like Yao Man, he preferred someone like Ning Wan.

Thinking of this, he suddenly recalled what Aunt Li had said, and his thin lips tightened. After pondering, he took out his phone and dialed a number he could recite backward.

...

The entire day, Ning Wan felt terrible, as if she was beginning to question her existence, lying in a daze on the bed with her mind all jumbled.

Just as she was about to drift off to sleep, the sudden ringtone of her phone jolted her awake, sitting up abruptly.

Her original phone seemed to have disappeared somewhere in the hospital; she hadn’t had a phone for days. The one now was bought by Xi Mohan a couple of days ago, and the number was newly registered.

So with this number, besides Aunt Li at the villa, only Xi Mohan would know it.

At this hour, Aunt Li would never call her and would come up directly if anything arose, meaning only Xi Mohan might be calling...

With this thought, drowsiness vanished instantly. She dashed to the bedside, grabbed the phone on the table, and glanced at the caller ID. It showed a string of unregistered numbers, but Ning Wan recognized it as Xi Mohan’s without a doubt.

Looking at that string of numbers, Ning Wan hesitated about whether to answer. Recalling what Xi Mohan had said before, her heart ached, and she couldn’t get past it.

She understood very well now what her identity was.
