My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 240: The First Time Lin Wanxi Truly Lowered Her Head to Him


Lin Wanxi nodded, and spoke softly, "About that document, I've carefully verified it over the past few days. I never expected you to have such a tragic background."

Chen Xuan sighed lightly, "Yeah, losing both parents, it was indeed an unfortunate childhood."

"Chen Xuan, I need to apologize to you."

"It's also due to my negligence towards you. I never considered your background issues."

A trace of sadness appeared on Lin Wanxi's face. "Actually, I've been thinking about this matter these past few days, wondering if what I did was right."

"Now I know the answer. There's no need to test you anymore. Let's let it go and reconcile like before. What do you think?"

Hearing these words, Chen Xuan felt very uncomfortable inside.

Lin Wanxi, who always had a proud personality, was finally truly lowering her head to him for the first time today.

It was indeed very rare.

Unfortunately...

Chen Xuan sighed slightly, "Lin Wanxi, if you had said this to me a bit earlier, I would have gladly accepted it."

"It's just... some things can never go back to the way they were."

Hmm?

Lin Wanxi frowned slightly, "What do you mean by that? Are you still upset with me over this and unwilling to forgive me?"

"I've already apologized to you, what more do you want?"

Chen Xuan waved his hand, "I'm not deliberately holding a grudge against you. It's just that a lot has happened these past few days."

"You don't need to apologize to me. To be precise, I should be the one apologizing to you."

Lin Wanxi stared at him in confusion, "You're apologizing to me? Explain clearly, what exactly happened?"

Sigh!

Chen Xuan let out a sigh, "I didn't intend to hide it from you. I've been staying at Yiyi's advisor, Su Linlang's place these past two days."

Lin Wanxi frowned, "Yiyi mentioned this to me. Weren't you treating her illness?"

"Don't tell me... you've fallen in love with her?"

Chen Xuan let out a bitter laugh, "I won't deny that I have a genuine fondness for Su Linlang, but I'm also aware of my marital relationship with you, so I've always abided by the boundaries and haven't done anything inappropriate."

Lin Wanxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what did you mean just now?"

Chen Xuan smacked his lips, "But just last night, I drank a lot with Su Linlang, and I ended up... having a relationship with her."

"I don't want to make excuses about being drunk, but it indeed had something to do with it, losing myself."

"The event has already unfolded, and I must tell you truthfully. As for the choice you make, I will respect it. Ultimately, I'm the one who wronged you!"

Boom!

Lin Wanxi stood still in place, her mind buzzing, unable to accept this reality.

"Chen Xuan, you bastard! Why did you betray me?!"

Lin Wanxi yelled angrily, her eyes instantly reddening, fighting back her tears.

Chen Xuan did not speak in his defense, "I don't want to explain too much for myself. Divorce is the best option for us."

"Rest assured, I won't take a penny from you, I'll leave with nothing!"

"Do you think leaving with nothing can make up for the hurt you've caused me?!" Lin Wanxi retorted coldly, full of grief and indignation.

Chen Xuan exhaled deeply, "This is the only thing I can do, and it is my final respect to you."

Heh!

Lin Wanxi let out a cold laugh, "You still have the nerve to talk about respect? Doing such a thing, do you even feel proud?"

"Confessing truthfully makes you feel like a real man, doesn't it?!"

Chen Xuan felt very stifled, then shook his head with a bitter smile, "Lin Wanxi, I was wrong in the first place this time, but ask yourself, do you bear no responsibility at all?"

"In the time I've been with you, have I ever been ambiguous with other women? What about Ye Qingxian? Did I fool around with her?"

"If you hadn't been messing with me, making me feel agitated, how would I have ended up leaving home! Now that things turned out this way, I won't defend myself and admit my wrong to you!"

"But ask yourself, didn't you cause all of this with your actions?"

At this point, Chen Xuan took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions.

"I don't want to say anything more, our fate has reached its end, let's part ways amicably!"

"That Jade Pendant truly is a family heirloom. Whatever price you bought it for, I'm willing to pay double to buy it back."

Chen Xuan spoke softly.

"Dream on!" Lin Wanxi snorted coldly, "Chen Xuan, I can consider this as an accident."

"As long as you promise not to have any further dealings with Su Linlang, I can pretend this never happened."

Chen Xuan shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't do that."

"I don't dare claim to be a good man, but when it comes to feelings, I'm absolutely responsible! What happened has already happened, and I will take full responsibility for Su Linlang!"

"Divorce might be the best choice. After all, we only have the name of being married, without the reality of it. You don't lose out on anything. I'm not indebted to you!"

"Give me a call when you've made up your mind, and we'll go finalize the divorce procedures."

After saying that, Chen Xuan stood up and walked out of the café.

His heart was equally full of sorrow, as he also loved Lin Wanxi and didn't want to part with her.

It was just an unavoidable choice.

Lin Wanxi looked completely desolate, not expecting things to turn out this way.

What should she do?

With Chen Xuan, should they really sever ties and become strangers from now on...
