Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, "If I have to make a choice, I would definitely choose you."

"The Jade Pendant is an inanimate object; how could it compare to a living person?"

This comment made Lin Wanxi very pleased and happy inside.

However, she still put on a cold expression, "Really? You're not just trying to brush me off?"

"When did you become so unreasonable? I've given you an answer, and now you're questioning if I'm brushing you off. This way of interacting makes me feel exhausted."

Chen Xuan said irritably.

Lin Wanxi became a little angry, "I'm being unreasonable now? Can't I ask for clarity?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. We've cleared things up, so isn't it unnecessary to continue this silent treatment?" Chen Xuan said softly.

Hmph!

Lin Wanxi snorted lightly, "You say it as if I enjoy the silent treatment! Don't say I didn't give you an opportunity. Do you want to come home with me?"

Chen Xuan knew that this was Lin Wanxi deliberately giving him an out, but her strong personality refused to easily admit weakness.

"Since the cold war is over, why would I stay in a hotel alone?"

Chen Xuan replied, following Lin Wanxi out of the guest room, and drove back to the mansion.

Although the misunderstanding was resolved, it seemed like a thorn remained between Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi.

Unable to be removed, it divided their emotions.

For Lin Wanxi, she knew she had wronged Chen Xuan. Those days her behavior was indeed less than ideal, saying many hurtful things.

Logically, she should proactively apologize to Chen Xuan and ask for his forgiveness.

If she were to humbly admit fault first, Chen Xuan would surely accept it gladly, and they could reconcile.

But her character decides that even though she feels guilty towards Chen Xuan, she won't easily yield.

Her heart is very conflicted, not knowing how to interact with Chen Xuan next.

For Chen Xuan, although he wouldn't overly argue with Lin Wanxi, he can't stand her forcing him to make a choice.

At the moment, he doesn't know what to say to Lin Wanxi.

With this, the two returned home and didn't talk much to each other.

They seemed very unfamiliar.

It wasn't intentional cold war, but neither had words to communicate.

Both had their own personal pressures, wanting to repair the relationship and make up.

However, nobody took the initiative to step forward, as if whoever approached would be hurt by the thorn in the middle...

And so, both had their own thoughts and spent a night.

...

The next morning, Lin Wanxi took the initiative to speak to Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, if I told you the Jade Pendant ended up with Ye Qingxian, what would you choose?"

Here we go again!

Hearing this, Chen Xuan felt his head throb.

"Lin Wanxi, are you done yet? Do you think it's fun for us to be like this?"

Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, "Is there really nothing else to talk about besides making choices?"

Lin Wanxi's expression was uncertain, "This is the last time I'm asking you to choose. It's important to me."

"Quickly answer me, will you choose to continue living with me or choose Ye Qingxian."

"I don't know, and don't ask me!" Chen Xuan said irritably, "What kind of annoying questions are these? Are you trying to drive me crazy to feel happy?"

"What kind of attitude is that? I just want to hear your answer. Is it necessary to give me such a hard time?" Lin Wanxi looked at him angrily.

"Ha, and you say I'm giving you a hard time, but you're the one deliberately causing trouble!" Chen Xuan said irritably.

"How am I troubling you? You have less and less patience for me now!" Lin Wanxi's eyes were filled with sorrow.

Chen Xuan felt speechless at this moment, "Fine, then let me ask you back. If both your dad and I fell into the water, who would you save first!"

"I..." Lin Wanxi couldn't answer.

"You can't answer either and feel troubled, right? Isn't this deliberately causing trouble, then what is it?" Chen Xuan sneered.

Hmph!

Lin Wanxi snorted lightly, "Is this the same thing? I'm asking you to make a choice between me and Ye Qingxian."

"Think carefully about this question, and tell me your answer later! I want your real, heartfelt response!"

After speaking, she turned and left with a handbag, driving to work.

Chen Xuan had an inexplicable feeling of annoyance, unable to understand what on earth Lin Wanxi was thinking.

At this moment, Chen Xuan's phone rang, and he saw it was Su Linlang calling.

Feeling somewhat incredulous, he hadn't expected Teacher Su to call him actively.

"Hello, Teacher Su, what made you think of calling me?" Chen Xuan answered with a smile.

Three seconds of silence on the other end, then came the voice: "Chen Xuan, do you have time now? I have some personal matters to discuss with you, and I wonder if it's convenient."

Talk to him about personal matters?

Chen Xuan's expression instantly turned peculiar, wondering what Teacher Su wanted to do...
