Only to see a line of cute little items hanging on the clothesline in the bathroom.

White ones, pink ones, black ones, and even striped ones...

An array of choices!

"This..."

Chen Xuan's expression was momentarily bewildered, as if he inadvertently glimpsed Su Linlang's privacy, feeling a bit awkward.

Looking at Su Linlang again, her face was already flushed red, wishing she could find a crack to hide in on the spot.

"You... wait a while."

Su Linlang quickly rushed into the bathroom, gathered up all the cute little items, and ran into the bedroom with them.

Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, Su Linlang looked extremely cute, all shy and flustered as she hurried away.

That night, Chen Xuan stayed in the room next to Su Linlang's bedroom, lying on his back with his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling.

Images of Lin Wanxi, Ye Qingxian, and Su Linlang constantly appeared in his mind.

Unconsciously, he started comparing these three beauties.

Lin Wanxi seemed like an iceberg, with a regal demeanor. Though a bit mischievous, she was kind-hearted, without those complicated schemes.

However, her personality was too aloof, somewhat stubborn and willful, unwilling to easily bow to others.

Ye Qingxian was quite the opposite, like a blazing fire, a seductive social butterfly. Yet inside, she was cunning and full of schemes, easily trapping someone in her gentle snare if they're not careful.

Dealing with this seductress required full attention; otherwise, she would overpower you.

At first glance, Su Linlang seemed aloof and quick to scold people, but upon getting to know her, one would find that she was very understanding and approachable.

Being with Su Linlang made one feel completely relaxed, without any sense of pressure.

Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, finding it difficult to determine which of the three beauties was more outstanding.

At that moment.

Lin Wanxi was also tossing and turning, unable to sleep, as Chen Xuan had left home again tonight, which made her a bit agitated.

She couldn't figure out what she had done wrong.

Was it wrong to test him?

She couldn't just casually entrust him with her future, could she? She needed to observe if he was worth lifelong commitment.

Yet, Chen Xuan felt annoyed, even saying she was deliberately tormenting him...

She couldn't understand it and couldn't accept Chen Xuan's attitude.

Through the night.

The next morning, after waking up, Su Linlang once again personally cooked a lavish breakfast for Chen Xuan.

"Take your time eating, I have to go to school."

"Here's a key to the room, so you don't get locked out after going out."

Su Linlang waved with a smile before leaving.

Chen Xuan looked at the breakfast on the table, filled with emotion.

Living with Lin Wanxi, he had never enjoyed such treatment.

"Teacher Su is a good woman! Able to handle both social and domestic duties!"

Chen Xuan couldn't help but feel a bit moved by Su Linlang, but he wouldn't easily show it.

Partly because of his own status, it was impossible to have a deep connection with Su Linlang.

Not long after, Lin Zhiguo called Chen Xuan, still worried about his relationship with Lin Wanxi.

"Father-in-law, please don't say anymore, let's just go with the flow." Chen Xuan said little and directly hung up the phone.

Lin Zhiguo sensed something wrong in Chen Xuan's tone, becoming even more anxious.

He immediately went to the office to have another serious talk with Lin Wanxi.

"Daughter, what's really going on between you and Chen Xuan?"

"You must explain everything to me today!"

Lin Zhiguo's expression left no room for refusal.

Lin Wanxi, feeling quite suffocated herself, explained the entire sequence of events clearly.

"Dad, you tell me, where did I go wrong?"

"It all started because Ye Qingxian caused trouble, and I wrongly accused him, but we resolved that misunderstanding later."

"I just wanted to see if he truly loved me for myself or if he was with me just for the Jade Pendant."

Lin Wanxi said angrily, "I just want to test him, do I deserve such a reaction?"

Lin Zhiguo sighed continuously, "You two truly are a pair of fateful adversaries! I can't even advise you anymore, both of you think too much and neither wants to compromise."

"Wanxi, even if you want to test Chen Xuan, you need to know when to stop. Men generally prefer gentle women; if you can't show gentleness as a wife and constantly present challenges, who can bear that?"

"This isn't Chen Xuan's fault, it's you overthinking things!"

"Dad, are you blaming me?" Lin Wanxi's expression was displeased.

Lin Zhiguo shook his head slightly, "Of course, I understand your intentions; you genuinely want to get along well with Chen Xuan, but your approach is problematic."

"Neither of you is really at fault; after all, for two people to ultimately come together, they are bound to go through some bumps and bruises, aligning with each other's temperaments."

"Wanxi, this time, take the initiative. Go and have a thorough talk with Chen Xuan. You can't continue this stalemate."

Lin Wanxi's eyes flickered with uncertainty, "I will talk to him, but not now."

"Dad, please have someone verify this information for me, regarding Chen Xuan's background and past, to see if it's true."

"Then I'll decide how to continue with Chen Xuan."
