Xu Ruobei seemed a little displeased when Zhong Han asked her so directly about her husband's ex-wife, but she had no choice but to do so because Zhong Han spoke very politely, which made her feel embarrassed to lose her temper.
"I haven't had much contact with Xuefeng's ex-wife. Didn't I just say that when I met him, he and his ex-wife had been divorced for more than a year," Xu Ruobei sighed at Xuefeng's ex-wife, with no obvious expression on her face. "I haven't dealt with his ex-wife directly. The only things I can tell you are probably things that everyone else knows. Xuefeng told me before that he and his ex-wife were introduced to each other and had a daughter after marriage. At that time, their financial conditions were not very good. Xuefeng was the kind of man who started from scratch. Later, one of them stayed at home to take care of the children full-time, and the other worked hard outside. As time went on, they had less and less to say, so they broke up peacefully and agreed to divorce. After the divorce, most of Xuefeng's property was divided. I have mentioned this to you just now, at least Xuefeng told me so. I fully trust him, so I haven't asked anyone else for confirmation."
"Do you have the contact information of Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife? Or, does your family have the contact information of both mother and daughter?" Zhong Han asked again.
Xu Ruobei seemed to want to shake her head, but then realized that it would make her seem like she had no sincerity in cooperating, so she stopped shaking her head abruptly: "I definitely don't have it saved in my phone. If you really need to know, I can go home and see if there's any place at home where I can find their contact information."
"Thank you very much!" Zhong Han smiled and nodded to Xu Ruobei, "Do you need us to take you back later? It's really not a good day for you today."
"No, I appreciate your kindness. I can go back by myself and won't delay your work. For me, what's more important now is to find out about my husband and who hurt him." Xu Ruobei gently wiped her lower eyelid with her left ring finger to wipe away the tears that just flowed from the corner of her eye. She stood up, took out a business card from her purse and handed it to Zhong Han. "If there is nothing else, I may need to go back home. If there is anything you need me to do, please feel free to call the number above. I will do my best to cooperate."
As she spoke, her body suddenly swayed and she almost fell. Fortunately, Gu Xiaofan was there to hold her back in time.
"Are you really okay?" Gu Xiaofan asked with some concern.
Xu Ruobei shook her head and turned to walk out. Gu Xiaofan still insisted on sending her downstairs and watched her get in the car and leave before returning to the office.
When she returned to the office, she found that Gao Xuan and Tang Hongye had also returned. When he saw Gu Xiaofan, Tang Hongye came over with a smile on his face before she could even speak.
"Xiaofan, I heard that you were on the scene today? How did you feel? Tell us about it!" He asked Gu Xiaofan with a smile.
Just by looking at the mischievous expression on Tang Hongye's face, Gu Xiaofan was 100% sure that the news that she was dragged to the scene and vomited violently must have spread among her colleagues. She secretly glanced at Gao Xuan behind Tang Hongye, and then secretly glanced at Zhong Han who was rearranging the pen holder at his desk, and she felt miserable in her heart.
"Tang Hongye, you are not being gentlemanly. Xiaofan is a girl, it's normal for her to be timid. Didn't your calves twitch when you first encountered a big scene?" Gao Xuan was much more honest than Tang Hongye and took the initiative to help Gu Xiaofan out.
