Hmm?

Everyone stared at him blankly, not understanding what he meant.

Zhang Ru snorted, "Chen Xuan, stop defending yourself."

"If you didn't steal the key, how could you open the safe to steal!"

Chen Xuan sneered dismissively, took a pin out of the closet, "Come with me, let me show you something."

Turning around, he left the bedroom and headed to Xiao Yiyi's room.

Lin Wanxi and the others followed closely, looking at Chen Xuan with surprise.

They saw Chen Xuan straighten the pin, insert it into the keyhole, gently turn it, and the safe opened on its own.

Chen Xuan looked back at everyone, smirked, "Is it that hard? To open a low-level safe like this, you don't need a key at all!"

He implied that he had no need to steal Xiao Yiyi's key.

Phew!

Lin Zhiguo and Zhang Ru were stunned on the spot, opening the safe easily with just a pin.

Incredible!

The instigator Xiao Yiyi also widened her eyes at the same time, almost exclaiming out loud.

Who would have thought Chen Xuan had such a skill!

Totally unexpected!

Lin Wanxi, surprised as well, suddenly understood that there was no need to suspect Chen Xuan anymore.

It must have been Xiao Yiyi's deliberate prank on Chen Xuan.

Zhang Ru snorted, "Chen Xuan, do you think this clears you of suspicion?"

"If you hadn't stolen the key, why would it be found under your mattress!"

Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, "Mother-in-law, I know you've never liked me and are taking this opportunity to drive me away."

"But don't underestimate yourself and make a fool of yourself."

Zhang Ru instantly got angry, "Chen Xuan, you obviously stole the key, yet you dare to argue!"

"What right do you have to talk back to me!"

Chen Xuan waved with a smile, "Alright, alright, if reasoning doesn't work, let's speak with facts."

"Since you're so adamant that I stole the key, go ahead and take it to forensics to see if it has my fingerprints."

"If there are my fingerprints, you can do whatever you want with me, I won't argue. But if there aren't, you owe me an explanation! Xiao Yiyi, do you dare?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yiyi shrank back, not daring to shout anymore.

Throughout, Chen Xuan hadn't touched the key with his hands, so how could it have his fingerprints?

Lin Wanxi shook her head, raised her hand to stop Zhang Ru from arguing, "Mom, don't get involved in this mess, it was all just Yiyi's prank!"

Saying this, Lin Wanxi looked coldly at Xiao Yiyi, "Admit it yourself, if this gets any bigger, you won't be able to handle it."

Xiao Yiyi pouted, "Fine, I admit it was my prank, just a joke on brother-in-law Chen Xuan."

Zhang Ru instantly lost her momentum, unable to target Chen Xuan anymore, she could only glare at Xiao Yiyi, "You're something! Who taught you this? You dragged us into your nonsense so early in the morning, aren't you bored!"

Lin Zhiguo was both angry and amused, "Chen Xuan, Yiyi has been playful since she was small, her cheerful nature isn't aimed at you, don't take it to heart."

Chen Xuan nodded, "Alright, I won't mind, but there mustn't be a next time."

"Even jokes have limits, going too far comes with consequences."

The little drama ended, leaving Xiao Yiyi very frustrated.

She had planned everything, but Chen Xuan had easily resolved it.

Very unwilling!

Lin Wanxi spoke discontentedly, "Yiyi, is this your way of testing Chen Xuan?"

"Seems to me you're just using the pretense of testing him to have fun for your twisted pleasure!"

Xiao Yiyi dryly laughed, "Cousin, this was just a small mistake."

"Tonight I'll find a chance to tempt him, see if he can hold himself. If he can't, it means such a man isn't trustworthy."

Lin Wanxi grimaced, "You better drop that idea quickly, don't cause any more trouble."

"These are lousy tricks, very indecent! Don't worry about this, I'll handle it myself."

Xiao Yiyi pouted, very reluctant.

After breakfast, they drove to work.

Lin Wanxi took the initiative to speak, "Yiyi was just fooling around, don't take it seriously."

Chen Xuan chuckled, "I wouldn't really bother with a little girl, but your mom, what does she take me for?"

Lin Wanxi felt quite embarrassed, "That's just my mom, she loves to compare with others, don't let it get to you."

"Also, I want to have a heartfelt talk with you about where we stand."

Chen Xuan agreed, nodding, "Sure, I'm available anytime."

"Then let's do it tonight!" Lin Wanxi said softly, "Do you have time?"

Chen Xuan chuckled playfully, "As the saying goes, if you squeeze, you'll find it, hahaha."

Lin Wanxi was instantly taken aback, this guy... as unserious as always.

Upon arriving at the company, everything was normal and running smoothly.

In the afternoon, Chen Xuan suddenly received a call from Ye Qingxian.

"Chen Xuan, come out, I'm at the entrance of New Moon Company," Ye Qingxian said with a playful tone.

Chen Xuan frowned slightly, "You even found your way to the company entrance? What mischief are you up to now?"

"Oh, don't always see me that way."

Ye Qingxian pouted playfully, "I specially came to tell you some important news, someone wants to compete with you for Lin Wanxi."

Hmm?

Chen Xuan was taken aback, unable to discern Ye Qingxian's intentions, wondering what trick she was up to again...
