My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 137: The First Time Feeling Guilty


Lin Wanxi and Lin Zhiguo looked over simultaneously, and the stone weighing on their hearts finally dropped.

"No surprises, right?" Lin Wanxi hurriedly ran forward to check, "Did the Li Family give you any trouble? Did you see Director Wang go over?"

Chen Xuan smiled and spread his hands, "Almost had a run-in with the Li Family's guards, then Wang Tao went in."

"It was really close, lucky Director Wang got there in time." Lin Zhiguo looked relieved, "Chen Xuan, I'm not just bragging about my daughter this time."

"You really should thank Wanxi, she was the first to think of Director Wang Tao, drove there herself to find him, and that's how he got there in time to rescue you."

Chen Xuan was at a loss, and rather helpless.

"As long as you're okay; with Director Wang stepping in, I don't think the Li Family will act against Chen Xuan again."

"You two chat, I won't be the third wheel, hahaha."

Lin Zhiguo, relieved, laughed heartily and walked out of the office.

Lin Wanxi looked at Chen Xuan, "No need to thank me, I didn't do it for you; I just didn't want the situation to blow up and drag my family and me into it."

Chen Xuan shook his head with a wry smile; even now, she was stubbornly holding her ground and refusing to give in.

"What kind of expression is that?" Lin Wanxi frowned slightly.

Sigh!

Chen Xuan was quite helpless, "Lin sister, I really can't thank you enough. Can I say you meant well but did something wrong?"

Hmm?

Lin Wanxi looked confused and said irritably, "What do you mean? I kindly got Director Wang to help you, and you're blaming me for meddling too much?"

Chen Xuan had a bitter smile on his face, "I worry for you and go to the trouble of asking Director Wang Tao for help; I'm really grateful, but you don't understand the situation."

"If Wang Tao hadn't gone there today, I would have completely resolved the big trouble with the Li Family. But once Wang Tao arrived, I couldn't act directly."

Lin Wanxi glared at him fiercely, "Stop bragging! You think you can take care of the prominent Li Family? What a joke!"

"If you don't want to say thanks, fine, but don't say things to irritate me!"

Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, "Then listen patiently as I finish explaining, then you can analyze and judge."

After explaining the general situation, "Now tell me, isn't that a case of good intentions turned bad?"

Ah?

Lin Wanxi looked shocked, "So you mean the Li Family already knows that Li Zijiang and Sun Yongkang died at your hands?"

Chen Xuan nodded, "The Patriarch Li made it very clear, no matter what, he wouldn't let me leave the Li Family alive today; he was determined to kill me."

"What could I do? A real man takes responsibility; I killed them, no need to deny."

"If Wang Tao hadn't gone over, I would have wiped out the Li Family, settled it once and for all! But now, the Li Family knows the truth and will definitely try to assassinate me!"

Lin Wanxi went pale and was filled with guilt, "Chen Xuan, I'm sorry, I... I was just worried about your safety, didn't think it through."

"I really meant well but ended up making things worse, putting you in more danger! I feel like such a sinner..."

Seeing Lin Wanxi looking so remorseful, like a girl who did something wrong, at a loss and deeply regretful, Chen Xuan smiled slightly.

He willingly pulled Lin Wanxi into his arms and softly said, "Don't blame yourself, I never meant to blame you, you were just trying to help me."

"But I still messed up and caused you a big problem." Lin Wanxi said with guilt, allowing Chen Xuan to hold her without struggling.

Chen Xuan laughed heartily and said, "How about we call it even."

"Last time, because of me, Zhang Peng targeted you, bringing unnecessary trouble to the company."

"This time, we're even; no one owes anyone."

Lin Wanxi showed an awkward smile, "For things to go this far, and you still joke to deliberately comfort me."

"How do you plan to deal with the Li Family's retaliation? Director Wang... is incidentally involved, the Li Family won't dare act against you boldly, and likewise, you can't quietly eliminate the Li Family now, can you?"

"After all, Director Wang knows you have a vendetta with the Li Family, if anything happens to Patriarch Li and others, they'll definitely think of you! Even if you do it covertly, it will surely arouse Director Wang's suspicion."

"Even if your relationship with him is good, his status won't allow him to shelter you purposefully."

Chen Xuan nodded, "Things have reached this point; it is difficult, but not too hard."

"I'll have to cooperate with the second young master Li Chaohui, and let him handle the aftermath properly, then there will be no suspicion on me."

Lin Wanxi's eyes widened, "That's quite risky, like negotiating with a tiger! That Li Chaohui has obvious ambitious intentions, you must be cautious!"

Chen Xuan laughed calmly, "Relax, Li Chaohui won't dare play tricks with me! He has no chance to scheme in front of me!"

Lin Wanxi remained uneasy, deeply regretting her "rash" actions, and for the first time felt guilty towards Chen Xuan...
