'Gu Jiaojiao?'
The name instantly shattered Xu Wenwan's composure, but she managed to steady herself.
She forced herself to speak in her usual gentle tone. "I know who Gu Jiaojiao is, but we're not close. Why do you suddenly ask about her?"
An Dongyang didn't seem to read too much into it. "I'm a teacher at the commune, but I haven't been back since the semester started. Gu Jiaojiao has been substituting for me. I only found out later that she's also from Qingshan Team. It really feels like fate."
An Dongyang said that last word with particular emphasis, then chuckled to himself.
Xu Wenwan gripped her chopsticks tightly. She knew An Dongyang was a womanizer even before she married him. 'There's nothing wrong with a man being a philanderer,' she thought. 'Only poor, incompetent men are faithful, and that's only because they don't have the means to cheat.'
So, she had expected that she wouldn't be the only woman in An Dongyang's life. But she didn't care.
