"What else do you want to say?"

Lin Wanxi stood with her back to him, with no intention of turning around.

But she remained in place, not walking away directly.

Actually, her heart was also filled with pain and conflict, but she purposely displayed coldness and strength.

Chen Xuan could see through it as he slowly stood up and handed the jade pendant back to Lin Wanxi, "You know what this jade pendant means to me."

"Whoever holds the jade pendant represents the daughter-in-law of the Chen Family! It already belongs to you, and no one can take it away from you!"

Lin Wanxi trembled slightly and said coldly, "We've reached this point; is there any meaning in telling me this?"

"I know I owe you in this matter, but I can't remain indifferent to the sacrifices Yiyi made for me."

Chen Xuan sighed slightly, "I don't beg for your forgiveness; I just hope for a chance to make amends. Can I?"

Lin Wanxi fell into silence for about ten seconds and then turned around.

"Then give me a reason. Can you persuade me to give you the chance to make amends?"

Chen Xuan hurriedly said, "There are many reasons! Firstly, the fate between you and me is destined by the heavens; we cannot be separated in this lifetime."

"Secondly, my love for you, Su Linlang, and Xiao Yiyi is different. What I hold for you is true love, which I believe you can feel."

Lin Wanxi frowned slightly, "You don't truly love Su Linlang and Xiao Yiyi?"

Chen Xuan shook his head gently, "I do love them, but it's conditional love, making it less pure."

"With Su Linlang, it was a drunken incident, a mistake made in a haze; I feel a bit guilty towards her and must take responsibility."

"And with Xiao Yiyi, it's more out of gratitude! What she's done for me has gone beyond the realm of love! She loves me with her life!"

"You are different—my affection for you grew through constant interaction, and eventually, I fell deeply in love with you!"

Saying this, Chen Xuan grasped Lin Wanxi's hands, "Wanxi, I know I've wronged you, but I truly can't lose you."

"You're the only one I recognize as my wife; no one can replace you in this lifetime! Can you give me a chance to make amends?"

Faced with Chen Xuan's heartfelt plea, Lin Wanxi was moved; she couldn't bear to leave him either.

But her heart was full of conflict, with a barrier she couldn't overcome.

"The jade pendant is your family's heirloom, and I have no reason to take it back now."

"Chen Xuan, let's give each other six months to think about it. It's also a buffer time for me."

"After six months, we'll make a decision about this relationship."

After she finished speaking, Lin Wanxi turned and walked out, without reaching for the jade pendant.

Chen Xuan knew very well that Lin Wanxi needed time to convince herself to accept everything again.

Half a year isn't long, but it's not short either.

He must seize this half-year to persuade Lin Wanxi to come back and continue being his wife.

Oh right, where did the jade pendant come from?

Chen Xuan suddenly thought of this question and quickly texted Lin Wanxi to inquire.

Soon after, Lin Wanxi replied, saying she bought it from a jade specialty store.

Without hesitation, Chen Xuan headed directly to that jade shop.

As soon as he walked in, Chen Xuan took out the jade pendant, "Boss, this jade pendant was sold from here, right?"

The jade shop owner frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

Chen Xuan spoke softly, "I just want to ask where you got this jade pendant from."

"Boy, are you deliberately causing trouble?"

The jade shop owner said coldly, "I'm warning you, you better not stir up trouble here! Otherwise, you'll regret it!"

Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, "Let me assure you first, I have no intention of causing you trouble."

"Just tell me where you got the jade pendant from, and I won't make things difficult for you."

Hmph!

The jade shop owner snorted coldly, "I don't need to tell you! Get lost quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Then I should tell you, today I must get an accurate answer," Chen Xuan said softly.

"Damn it, you won't cry until you see the coffin!"

The jade shop owner cursed and immediately pulled out his phone to make a call, "Biaozi, bring some men over! There's a kid causing trouble in my shop!"

Soon after, a man with dyed yellow hair brought over a dozen people to the entrance of the jade shop.

The jade shop owner, feeling confident, laughed disdainfully, "Kid, if you don't want a beating, you better get out of here! You can't act crazy in my place!"

Chen Xuan glanced at the dozen people and shook his head slightly, "Are you trying to intimidate me with numbers?"

"If that's the case, I'll show you something today!"

He made a call to Su Dahai.

The jade shop owner scoffed, "Are you trying to put on a show for me?"

"Do you think you can scare me like this? I own a jade shop; I wasn't born afraid!"

Chen Xuan lit a cigarette and smiled lightly at the shop owner, "You're just a businessman; I don't want to make things difficult for you."

"Wait until my people arrive, then decide whether or not to give me the answer."
