Lin Wanxi left the café with a face full of sorrow, stumbling like a walking corpse.
She got into the car, lay on the steering wheel, and sobbed softly.
Tears were mixed with resentment and reluctance.
Half an hour passed, and it was unclear whether she had cried her eyes dry or if her emotions had stabilized after being released.
Lin Wanxi took out a tissue, wiped away the remnants of tears from the corners of her eyes, and drove away.
Back at the company, Lin Wanxi's eyes appeared slightly swollen and her expression was unusually aloof.
The female receptionist at the front desk greeted her proactively, but Lin Wanxi walked into the elevator with a cold expression without acknowledging her.
Arriving at the office, Lin Wanxi leaned back in her chair, gazing vacantly at the ceiling, devoid of any spirit or energy.
Before long, Lin Zhiguo walked in.
Seeing Lin Wanxi in this state, a foreboding sense arose within him.
"Wanxi, what's going on? Did the talk with Chen Xuan… break down?" Lin Zhiguo cautiously asked.
"Dad, don't mention him anymore; he has nothing to do with me now." Lin Wanxi said expressionlessly.
Lin Zhiguo became a bit anxious, "What exactly happened? How did you two talk at lunch? Why say such discouraging things?"
"He cheated! He had a relationship with another woman, and I can't forgive him!" Lin Wanxi's face was cold, her fists secretly clenched, trembling slightly.
What?
Lin Zhiguo was shocked, "Chen Xuan… with Ye Qingxian? That shouldn't be the case!"
"It's not Ye Qingxian, it's Yiyi's tutor, Teacher Su." Lin Wanxi replied coldly.
"This… how did it involve Teacher Su? What's going on with them?" Lin Zhiguo found it unbelievable, feeling somewhat chaotic.
Lin Wanxi, deeply troubled, explained the whole situation.
Ah!
Lin Zhiguo sighed, "I didn't expect such an accident, fate is playing tricks on us!"
"What are your thoughts now?"
Lin Wanxi, filled with anger, said, "What can I think? He needs to take responsibility for Su Linlang, and I can only grant them that! Divorce is the only choice we have left."
"Do you really want to go down this path? Isn't there a better way to resolve it?" Lin Zhiguo was anxious, "Wanxi, you must think it over, don't act impulsively."
"Dad!"
Lin Wanxi shouted coldly, "He's done such a thing, am I supposed to turn a blind eye and tolerate their improper relationship?"
Lin Zhiguo also became a bit angry, "Wanxi, your obstinate nature is ultimately harming yourself!"
"Let's address the matter as it is; is this entirely Chen Xuan's fault? He was wrong to have a relationship with Su Linlang, but it was also an accident caused by alcohol."
"I'm not defending Chen Xuan, think about it, why didn't he get involved with Ye Qingxian before?"
"What role did you play in this matter? This accident also bears an inescapable responsibility for you! It was your willful mischief and repeated distrust that pushed Chen Xuan step by step into someone else's arms!"
At this moment, Lin Wanxi realized this too, and although she didn't refute her father, she felt very aggrieved inside.
"What do you expect me to do? Chen Xuan doesn't want to leave Su Linlang and insists on divorcing me. Am I supposed to beg him not to leave? I can't do that!"
Lin Wanxi felt both sorrow and resentment inside.
Lin Zhiguo shook his head helplessly, "Wanxi, let me ask you one thing, and you must answer me honestly."
"Are you willing to accept a divorce from Chen Xuan?"
"Dad, things have come to this point, what can I do if I don't want to accept it?" Lin Wanxi's eyes reddened again as she held back tears.
Lin Zhiguo nodded slightly, "As long as you love Chen Xuan in your heart, there is still a chance to save this."
"I'll put aside my dignity and arrange a meeting with Chen Xuan. We'll sit down and talk it over once more."
Saying this, Lin Zhiguo got up and left the office.
Soon after, he called Chen Xuan.
Seeing Lin Zhiguo's call, Chen Xuan knew well, "Father-in-law, you know too, right? I've let you down, I'm very sorry."
Lin Zhiguo sighed, "Chen Xuan, I know you're a good man. This is not solely your fault; Wanxi also bears some responsibility."
"How about this, let's meet and talk this afternoon, alright? Surely you can grant me this face as your father-in-law, haha."
Chen Xuan gave a helpless smile, "You are a very open-minded father-in-law, and I truly respect you."
"Since you've spoken, I'll follow your arrangement."
"Alright, four in the afternoon then, let's meet at the teahouse," Lin Zhiguo said softly.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhiguo returned to the office, "Wanxi, I've arranged to meet Chen Xuan at four this afternoon, you'll go with me."
"Remember, don't throw a tantrum! If you don't want to give up on Chen Xuan, then listen to me at that time."
Lin Wanxi didn't respond verbally, which was tantamount to agreement.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, she didn't want to break up with Chen Xuan completely.
Although she didn't say it out loud, she was well aware in her heart that she also bore some responsibility for causing all this.
If she had been open with Chen Xuan from the start and not given him the cold shoulder, this accident might not have happened.
If there was a chance to reconcile, she wanted to seize it.
She just didn't know what Chen Xuan would choose, and whether they could mend what was broken...
