Never in their wildest imaginations had they thought they would meet Wen Fenglin there.
Yu Lili was stunned at first. She immediately thought about what had just happened. Without knowing why, she began to feel the outrage on behalf of Wen Fenglin. A grievance she had felt a while before resurfaced.
“Uncle Wen…” Yu Lili called out. In her voice was a hint of awkwardness.,
Wen Fenglin walked over to them and said, “What a coincidence! You’re here for lunch too? There aren’t many people at my table. Would you like to join us?”
“Pardon?” Yu Lili gave a polite smile when she heard that. “I think not, Uncle Wen. You go ahead. They are all your friends. It won’t be appropriate for the both of us as a younger generation to interrupt.”
Wen Fenglin had expected Yu Lili to reject him. He smiled and nodded his head. His two dimples appearing in his cheeks gave him an endearing appearance. He replied, “Alright, then. Enjoy your meal.”
“Hold on, Uncle Wen.” Ou Ming stopped Wen Fenglin in his tracks and turned to look at Yu Lili before looking back and asking, “Are you free after lunch?”
Wen Fenglin paused in his step and looked at Ou Ming. He asked, “Why?”
Yu Lili seemed to guess what it was. She nudged Ou Ming as she glared at him.
Ou Ming ignored Yu Lili’s gesture and answered, “I have something to tell you. It’s quite minor, but I think you should know.”
Wen Fenglin looked at Ou Ming and turned to look at Yu Lili. He nodded his head and responded, “OK. Finish your lunch and wait for me. There’s a café nearby. We can head there later.”
“Alright.” Ou Ming agreed, and Wen Fenglin headed back.
When she saw that Wen Fenglin was some distance away, Yu Lili gave Ou Ming a push and said, “You’re intending to tell Uncle Wen? Are you crazy? Uncle Wen is going to feel horrible!”
“I think it’s something that he really needs to know.” Ou Ming held her hand tightly. “Let’s go in first.”
They requested a private room. After Yu Lili and Ou Ming ordered their food, they resumed their discussion. By the end of the conversation, he had succeeded in convincing her.
After lunch, the husband and wife sat for a while in the café until they saw Wen Fenglin approaching them.
Yu Lili saw Wen Fenglin’s smile. It was amiable. The two dimples on his cheeks were especially attention-grabbing. The moment she laid eyes on him, she began to regret her decision. She instinctively held on to Ou Ming’s palm and asked worriedly, “Do we really have to tell Uncle Wen?”
Twenty years ago, Xian’er had married Zhen Xianlang, and Wen Fenglin had been left with nothing. Twenty years later, to discover that Xian’er had risked her life 20 years before to bear Zhen Xianlang a daughter would be too cruel for him to accept.
Wouldn’t it be better to just keep this a secret forever?
Ou Ming could read Yu Lili’s mind. He patted her hand gently as he said, “Don’t worry. Men aren’t as weak as you imagine them to be.”
Is that the case? Yu Lili still had her doubts. At the same time, she felt at a loss of what to do.
It was a working day, and there weren’t many people in the café. The corner they were seated at was very quiet Other than them, there weren’t many other customers nearby.
Wen Fenglin walked over and sat. He said, “Sorry to keep you waiting. I see you haven’t ordered anything. What would you like to drink?”
“We did. We ordered a cup of red tea for you,” Ou Ming replied. “Uncle Wen, I have something to tell you. It has to do with Chi Xian.”
