Wendy was slightly stunned.
She didn't dare to believe that after they broke up, Charlie would come to her again, but Farr had a resolute look on his face.
Her fingers slowly curled up, and her heart was a little moved.
Farr looked at her thoughtfully and asked in a tentative tone, "Miss Lim, I thought you wouldn't come back from overseas. Now that you're back, do you need me to tell Mr. Hogg that between you and him..."
"No." Wendy shook her head. Her eyes were slightly dim, and her voice was soft. "Mr. Chiang, you don't have to tell him anything. It's really good to be like this now! We broke up four years ago, and we've not related anymore. There's no need to let him know about the past."
He now had his own life, his adorable son, and a fiancee who could be in the wedding hall any minute. Moreover, she would leave Ice City soon.
Hearing this, Farr nodded his head clearly.
After all, he was just an assistant. Besides, he did see the two of them break up four years ago. He remembered that he accompanied Boss to the airport and watched her and Felix leave with his own eyes...
For a moment, both of them can't help but have something on their minds.
"Mr. Hogg!"
Farr suddenly looked behind her and nodded respectfully.
Charlie wore a black suit and took a document in his hand. It seemed that he was coming out of the conference room and walking toward the president's office. At this time, he stopped and stood there, looking at them from a distance.
Or rather, his eyes were fixed on her.
Wendy couldn't help holding her breath.
Fortunately, Coral also came out of the conference room and quickly ran over. "Wendy, you must have been waiting for a long time!"
"It's okay!" Wendy quickly looked away and pulled Coral into the elevator. "Have you finished? If you're done, let's go..."
After the elevator door was closed, Charlie turned around with one hand in his pocket and walked to the office.
In front of the big desk, Farr stood respectfully and reported business. When all the reports were finished, Boss didn't tell him to leave. He had to ask in confusion, "Mr. Hogg, anything else you need me to do?"
Charlie put the cigarette between his fingers and sent it to his lips, took a drag, and then smoke dissipated.
In the blurred sight, he suddenly asked in a low voice, "Are you familiar with Wendy?" "Not bad!" Farr was stunned.
"How familiar are you?" Charlie's thin lips twitched.
"Well..." Farr was a little confused. Even he was familiar with Miss Lim, it was because of the boss. Now Boss asked him, but he didn't know how to answer. After thinking for a long time, he said, "It's just not bad!"
Charlie put out the half-lit cigarette in his hand and said, "You can go now!"
"Yes!" Farr nodded immediately.
But until he walked out of the office and closed the door, he had a chill down his back.
Wendy thought it was the same as last time, that she's just going to have a simple meal with Coral in a restaurant.
"Yes, we'd love to! I remember that my grandmother used to sing it all the time, it's beautiful. I haven't heard it for years since my grandmother passed away. Wendy, go on! Make me nostalgic!"
Seeing that everyone was quite interested, Wendy was very grateful and went to pick a song.
The big screen showed the name of the chosen part of the opera, and the familiar prelude gradually sounded.
The moment Wendy handed the microphone to her mouth, she suddenly remembered a man's overbearing tone, it seemed to be still in her ears, "sing it only to me". He questioned her once after she sang the song, if she remembered it right. What's more, he even tripped her on purpose when she went to sing...
Those scattered memories seemed to be vivid in her mind and never faded away.
It seemed that since then, she had never sung it again in front of others.
However, things had changed a long time ago. He didn't remember her, and he didn't remember what he had said to her. Did it matter whether she sang or not?
She cleared her throat and began to sing in front of the screen. "In order to save you, I left my home, I didn't expect that I would succeed in the imperial examination. At that time, I was in the red robe, wearing a hat with in it, it's so new to me. I also went to the feast at the palace, rode through the palace. Everyone praised my unmatched beauty, but nobody knew that I was actually a girl! I didn't take part in the examination for fame, and I didn't win the examination for becoming a minister. I just did it for you, my beloved husband..."
After the elongated coda of the song, there was only the ending music left.
She had not sung it for a long time, so she was more or less nervous.
When Wendy put down the microphone, she quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside.
