Xu Wan stared quietly into the man's dark eyes, trying to glean some clue from his expression.
But those eyes were like the deep ocean of the Pacific, without any ripples, and she couldn't figure them out at all.
Seeing that Xu Wan didn't understand, the man said directly, "What, did I misunderstand?"
Xu Wan's eyes welled up with tears.
She had imagined countless times about reuniting with the man, whether it would be touching or exciting, but she never imagined it would be so humiliating.
Xu Wan bit her lip and mustered her courage to speak, "You're Jiang Tingzhou, right?"
"who?"
Jiang Tingzhou's face remained completely expressionless.
He knew, of course, that she had come to ask about this.
We have also made preparations to deal with it.
He had made up his mind not to acknowledge Xu Wan in his current state. If he were to reveal his identity one day, it would be after his successful rehabilitation surgery.
He will only speak if there is hope that he can stand up again in the future.
Xu Wan said with certainty, "Jiang Tingzhou, you are him!"
The man surrounded her, his hand slightly supporting his temple, looking at Xu Wan with a mocking expression. "I thought there was some woman who wouldn't mind a disabled person like me. Turns out you've mistaken me for someone else. Sorry, I've never even heard of this person you're talking about. If you're not here to sleep with me, you can leave now."
"You lied to me!" Xu Wan clenched her fists tightly. "Why did you lie to me? Is it because you injured your leg and were afraid I would dislike you? I wouldn't, Jiang Tingzhou, I wouldn't!"
"What's your name again?"
"You know that."
"Your lover just called you, her surname is... Xu, right?"
The man's behavior suggested that he genuinely didn't know her name.
“No, Xu Zeqian and I are in the same profession, we just talk here sometimes,” Xu Wan explained subconsciously, then added, “You must be Jiang Tingzhou! If it's because of your leg injury, I told you it's okay. We swore when we got married that we would stay together through poverty and sickness…”
After listening to Xu Wan finish speaking, the man saw that the woman's eyes were red and tears were welling up in them, and then he sighed deeply, "To be honest, I really wish I were that Jiang Tingzhou you mentioned, but I'm sorry, I'm not him. But I really envy him, just like you, for having such a loving wife like you."
The man's tone was so sincere that there wasn't a single flaw in his sincerity.
Before Xu Wan came in, she firmly believed that this Ryan was Jiang Tingzhou!
However, the man's words and actions at that moment showed no sign of lying.
rare……
Is it really just the voice that sounds similar?
Did she make a mistake?
Xu Wan looked closely into the man's eyes through his transparent glasses, trying to find evidence that he was lying.
pity.
Everything seemed to be completely untraceable.
Xu Wan then asked, "How old is Mr. Ryan this year?"
“Thirty-seven years old.” Seeing Xu Wan’s disbelieving expression, the man asked, “What, do you want me to show you my passport?”
Xu Wan knew that if Jiang Tingzhou really wanted to pretend to be someone else, changing his age would be normal.
She then asked, "So... will you be stationed in China permanently, or...?"
“I’m leaving the day after tomorrow and probably won’t be back in China for a while, but I’m not sure if I’ll be opening a branch in China in the future.” The man answered the question first, and said, “Alright, since you’re not here for me to sleep with, then you can only ask one more question.”
One last question.
Xu Wan knew that if she left today, she might never have the chance to see Mr. Ryan again.
She was unwilling to accept it.
Xu Wan hesitated for a long time before speaking again: "Mr. Ryan, I'm sorry, I don't believe you. I... can I see your lower back? My husband had a wound there when he saved me."
Jiang Tingzhou was stabbed by Jinqi's father in order to save her.
A person's appearance may change, but a deep wound will never disappear easily.
