746 I Don’t Want a Divorce
Xi Chenxiao hugged Su Jin even tighter, without any intention to let her go. Besides, this was all a misunderstanding. Xi Chenxiao didn’t do anything. He just stepped out of the shower and Bai Xue saw him wrapped only in a towel. A thin layer of sweat appeared on Xi Chenxiao’s forehead as he held Su Jin, hoping to explain everything clearly.
Xi Chenxiao said anxiously, “Darling, please don’t misunderstand.”
“There’s really nothing going on between us.”
“If there’s was, it’s probably…”
Su Jin interrupted before Xi Chenxiao could finish, her eyes filled with disappointment and anger. It was nothing, but it’s probably what? Had they done everything they should and shouldn’t, therefore there’s nothing to explain?
However, Su Jin was still keen to learn the truth, so she asked coldly, “It’s probably? It’s probably what?”
“Explain to me now.”
Xi Chenxiao saw the disappointment and anger in Su Jin’s eyes and knew that if he didn’t explain this properly, she would fly into a rage and not care about whether seeing his naked upper body was considered cheating. All Xi Chenxiao wanted to do now was to calm Su Jin down and explain what happened.
He hugged Su Jin and explained, “When I got home and went to take a shower, she sneaked into our bedroom.”
“I didn’t know, so I came out wrapped only in a towel and she saw my upper body naked.”
“I didn’t do anything else.”
Xi Chenxiao secretly observed Su Jin’s expression as he spoke. He wanted to see if Su Jin was still angry. As long as he explained what happened and Su Jin was willing to believe him, everything should be fine. Xi Chenxiao held Su Jin carefully, afraid that she would break free and disappear without a trace.
He continued gently, “Darling, please don’t be angry.”
“The only thing I’m sorry about is that she saw my upper body naked.”
After Xi Chenxiao finished speaking, he noticed that Su Jin didn’t seem to have any other reaction and became even more flustered. Did Su Jin distrust him so much? Xi Chenxiao couldn’t let this continue. He was willing to do anything to have Su Jin believe him.
Xi Chenxiao raised his hand and looked at Su Jin with a serious expression as he made a solemn vow, “I swear that I will not let anyone see me half-naked again.”
“Darling, don’t be angry anymore, okay?”
Su Jin was stunned when she heard Xi Chenxiao’s words. She only saw his upper body naked? And nothing else happened? Then, why did he hesitate? He should have just come right out and said it. Also, what exactly did Yu Haiyang see?
Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao seriously, not letting any micro expressions escape her eyes as she asked, “Is that all that happened?”
“You didn’t do anything else to betray me?”
How dare Xi Chenxiao do anything else? This thing had already made Su Jin so furious that she threatened to leave him. Even if he was emboldened with whatever substance, he wouldn’t dare to do anything else. Moreover, Xi Chenxiao was a little disgusted with Bai Xue, so it was impossible for anything to happen.
Xi Chenxiao responded immediately, “I swear, I’m sure, there’s definitely nothing else.”
Su Jin furrowed her brows and started to think. If things happened as Xi Chenxiao had explained, it was Bai Xue who tried to throw herself at him, and Xi Chenxiao was careless and let her sneak into their bedroom. Then, why did Yu Haiyang hint that Su Jin had been cheated on?
Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao seriously again and concluded that he didn’t seem to be lying before she replied, “Let go of me.”
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin nervously. How could he let go at this time? If she ran away, with so many dangers outside and the past assassination attempts, where could Su Jin go? Without Xi Chenxiao by her side, what if she was bullied?
Xi Chenxiao didn’t let Su Jin go. Instead, he asked nervously, “Darling, if I let you go now…”
“Will you still leave this place?”
Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao’s cautious reaction and knew that he wasn’t lying. She had to find a way to deal with the two-faced hypocrite so that she would back off. As for why Xi Chenxiao brought her home, there’s probably another backstory that Su Jin could ignore for now.
Su Jin only said icily to Xi Chenxiao, “Let’s see how you perform.”
“If I find anything…”
“There’ll be no room for discussion. We’ll get a divorce immediately.”
“I won’t let you off so easily anymore. You’d better not hide anything.”
