Ye Qingxian wrapped her arms around his neck, her eyes dazed, utterly entranced.

The fiery kiss was like a bolt of lightning hitting Chen Xuan, his mind temporarily going blank.

After three seconds or so, Chen Xuan finally snapped back to reality.

He hurriedly pushed Ye Qingxian away, stood up, and looked at her with a peculiar expression, "Are you trying to die? You pounced on me like a hungry wolf without asking for my opinion?"

Ye Qingxian gave a charming smile, "That was my first kiss, all given to you. Don't feel like you lost out."

Ha ha!

Chen Xuan laughed in exasperation, "So I'm the one taking advantage now, huh!"

"Not taking advantage, it's a free benefit," Ye Qingxian said with a sweet smile, "Chen Xuan, stop looking at me with that strange gaze, okay?"

"I genuinely like you. For you, I can give up everything!"

Chen Xuan sneered disdainfully, "Ye Qingxian, you're really willing to go all out, huh!"

"What kind of scheme are you plotting behind my back? Just say it."

"I like making friends with straightforward people, not women who scheme in secret, understand?"

Ye Qingxian said helplessly, "I really didn't mean to scheme against you. If you must think that way, then I can only say I'm seeking your protection."

"But that's just one aspect. The main thing is that you're outstanding enough, making me fall for you."

"Seeking my protection? Where did that come from?" Chen Xuan frowned slightly.

Ye Qingxian's eyes flickered, "Some things, I can't tell you right now because I don't want your pity or charity."

"If one day you help me with this, it would be because you love me first and foremost! Otherwise, I'd rather keep it buried in my heart forever, not letting you know."

Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, "Playing hard to get with me again! Ye Qingxian, I've seen through you a long time ago, your intentions have never been pure!"

"Fine, I won't discuss this with you for now, think of me however you want."

Ye Qingxian waved her hand, "Do you think Lin Wanxi is as simple-minded? Hasn't she ever schemed against you?"

"Lin Wanxi is much purer than you, she doesn't have the same scheming mind!" Chen Xuan sneered, "Last time she acted, she could be cruel to herself! And you just did it!"

Ye Qingxian showed an indifferent expression, "I admit I'm not a good girl. Without these scheming methods, I couldn't have survived to this day, and I don't feel ashamed."

"But Lin Wanxi isn't as good as you say. Has she ever told you she handed the jade pendant to me?"

Hmm?

Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Lin Wanxi gave you the jade pendant?"

Seeing Chen Xuan's reaction, Ye Qingxian had a sense of understanding.

"It seems Lin Wanxi didn't tell you about this."

"As for what's going on, I'm not going to explain it to you, lest you say I'm scheming again."

"Go back and ask Lin Wanxi, see how she explains it, then come find me."

Ye Qingxian gave a contemptuous smile and returned to her desk.

Chen Xuan's eyes were uncertain, unable to read Ye Qingxian's mind.

Is there another situation here?

What secrets are being kept from him between Lin Wanxi and Ye Qingxian?

"Ye Qingxian, you'd better not play tricks."

Chen Xuan said, turning and leaving the office.

Ye Qingxian smiled contemptuously, "Without tricks, I wouldn't be Ye Qingxian!"

Immediately, she opened the computer and pulled up the video surveillance.

Her office was equipped with hidden cameras.

She captured the footage of her and Chen Xuan lying on the floor and kissing passionately, then sent it to Lin Wanxi.

Then she made a call.

"Lin Wanxi, did you see the footage I sent you?"

"I told Chen Xuan the jade pendant was in my hands, and he immediately pinned me down and started kissing me."

"If we weren't in the office, things might have gotten further between us."

"So, you lost this bet again!"

Ye Qingxian wore a playful, wicked smile.

Lin Wanxi's face was full of anger, "Ye Qingxian, you're so shameless!"

Bam!

She hung up the phone, sitting there alone, simmering with anger.

Not long after, Chen Xuan arrived at New Moon Company.

"Lin Wanxi, I heard from Ye Qingxian that you gave her the jade pendant."

"What on earth is going on?"

Chen Xuan hurried over, demanding to get to the bottom of it.

"First, explain this to me, what is this about?" Lin Wanxi glared coldly at Chen Xuan.

Hmm?

Chen Xuan saw the footage and his face changed slightly, "Damn Ye Qingxian, messing with things again!"

"That was an accident, Ye Qingxian is deliberately trying to destroy the relationship between us!"

"Was it really just an accident?" Lin Wanxi sneered coldly, "If you didn't agree, how could Ye Qingxian have kissed you?"

Chen Xuan was a bit impatient, "Lin Wanxi, do we really have so little trust between us?"

"I can choose to believe you, but you must give me a reason to trust you!"

Lin Wanxi said coldly, "Right now, the jade pendant is already in Ye Qingxian's hands. Do you want the jade pendant, to choose to be with Ye Qingxian, or do you still choose me?"

Chen Xuan's anger instantly flared up, "Lin Wanxi, you're being too much!"

"Didn't I tell you the origin of the jade pendant! You're using this to test me, it's simply absurd!"

Having said that, he stormed out of the office and immediately drove off to settle things with Ye Qingxian.

Lin Wanxi was both anxious and angry, not expecting Chen Xuan to just walk out like that, continuing to stew in anger alone.

Chen Xuan drove rapidly to Ye Qingxian's company.

Bam!

Chen Xuan kicked open the office door, rushed to the desk, and grabbed Ye Qingxian by the neck.

"Ye Qingxian, are you looking for death?!"
