"Lin Wanxi, what's up with you throwing a tantrum for no reason?" Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

This only made Lin Wanxi angrier, "I'm the one throwing a tantrum? Haha, that's ridiculous!"

"Have you even looked at what you've done? You have the nerve to come back and scold me!"

Chen Xuan looked confused; he could clearly feel that Lin Wanxi's emotions were off.

Could it be that she found out about him going to rescue Ye Qingxian?

That makes sense, Xiao Yiyi was right next to him when he answered Ye Qingxian's call for help.

That little spirit must have leaked the secret and told Lin Wanxi about it.

Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, "I mean, Lin Wanxi, it's true that I went to rescue Ye Qingxian, but do you have to make such a big deal out of it?"

Lin Wanxi's face was full of anger, "Saying I'm making a fuss over nothing again! Do you think you're so noble?"

"Since you chose Ye Qingxian, then why come back? Tonight, why don't you move across the street and live with Ye Qingxian! I'll fulfill you both! From now on, let's never cross paths again!"

After speaking, she turned and went upstairs, slamming the door in anger, locking herself in the bedroom.

Lin Wanxi thought that Chen Xuan didn't get the Jade Pendant from Ye Qingxian and that's why he came back, continuing to play dumb.

If the Jade Pendant had really gotten into Ye Qingxian's hands, he would have spent the night directly at Ye Qingxian's!

The more she thought about it, the more saddened she became, and her heart ached terribly.

Finally, she had genuine feelings for Chen Xuan and wanted to live well with him, but in the end... all she got were lies and deceit!

Unforgivable!

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan, ignorant of the truth, simply thought Lin Wanxi was angry because he went to rescue Ye Qingxian.

He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed and unhappy.

"She's being irrational again! And so petty!"

Chen Xuan kept shaking his head, very dissatisfied with Lin Wanxi's behavior.

A woman whose heart isn't broad enough is not qualified to be his wife!

In an instant, the two fell into a cold war again, ignoring each other.

Not long after, Ye Qingxian called Chen Xuan.

"Did Lin Wanxi give you the cold shoulder tonight? She definitely badmouthed me, right!"

Ye Qingxian asked tentatively.

Chen Xuan replied irritably, "Totally unreasonable! I've found Lin Wanxi to be more and more out of line, making a fuss over nothing, wanting to argue endlessly!"

"What did she say to you?" Ye Qingxian asked again.

"Just because she found out I rescued you, as soon as I got home, she flipped out on me and started a fight, wanting me to move to your place! Is that something a person should say?"

Chen Xuan was filled with anger, venting his dissatisfaction.

Ye Qingxian understood and immediately played the sympathetic role, "Chen Xuan, I'm sorry, it's because of me that you two had such a big fight."

"It's not much related to you; she brought it on herself!" Chen Xuan snorted coldly.

"Calm down, don't let it bother you."

Ye Qingxian softly comforted him, "I'm not talking bad about Lin Wanxi at this moment, but she was like this even in school—only seeing herself, always needing things done her way."

"Take today's matter for example, if you were my husband and Lin Wanxi was in danger, I certainly wouldn't stop you from rescuing her."

"Though we've always been at odds, it's not like there's deep hatred necessitating a life-and-death struggle! For the sake of being classmates, I'd definitely support you doing this."

"It also shows that Lin Wanxi doesn't trust you enough, thinking you truly have an unclear relationship with me. Living with her like this must be exhausting for you!"

"Alright, no need to say more, I'll handle it myself." Chen Xuan interrupted Ye Qingxian, "You should rest early, goodnight."

He hung up the phone directly and lay on the bed unable to sleep, getting angrier the more he thought about it.

In the master bedroom next door, Lin Wanxi also lay in bed, unable to sleep.

Both angry and feeling terribly bitter and aggrieved, with a deep sense of loss.

Tears soaked the pillowcase.

"He doesn't even love me, so why do I foolishly cry my heart out over him!"

Lin Wanxi wiped away her tears, forcing herself to calm down and not think about it.

She wanted to erase Chen Xuan's image from her mind.

But the more she tried, the less she could let go.

"So annoying!" Lin Wanxi grabbed a pillow, buried her face in it, and forced herself to sleep.

That night, both of them were sleepless.

The next day at work, both sported dark circles under their eyes, ignoring each other.

It didn't escape Lin Zhiguo's notice, who immediately realized something was wrong.

He called Chen Xuan to the office and said with a dry laugh, "Chen Xuan, you and Wanxi... what's happened again?"

"A few days ago, I saw you two, your relationship was progressing pretty well, so why are you in a cold war today?"

Chen Xuan replied irritably, "Father-in-law, it's really not my fault this time!"

"What kind of temper does your daughter have? She turns hostile for no reason, how can anyone live like this?"

"What's the matter, tell me." Lin Zhiguo asked hastily.

Chen Xuan recounted the events of last evening, "That's the situation! Father-in-law, please judge, what did I do wrong?"

"She doesn't get along with Ye Qingxian, but when Ye Qingxian calls me for help, can I just stand by and do nothing?"

"It's true I'm her husband, but she can't control me so tightly that I can't even have a female friend, can she? Back then, did my mother-in-law impose such strict restrictions on you?"

"Moreover, it's about saving someone, how could I be wrong? Yet she throws a tantrum, a typical lack of trust in me! If I had any ulterior motives towards Ye Qingxian, why wait until now? I would have betrayed the marriage long ago!"

Lin Zhiguo understood the situation, constantly grinning, "Sigh, Wanxi... she can indeed be a bit petty."

"Here's what we'll do, calm down for now, I'll go talk to Wanxi! This is just too unreasonable!"
