Xia Yan's gaze was tightly fixed on Su Chen, as if trying to see right through him.
But Su Chen's eyes were as pure as a serene lake, devoid of any impurities.
In fact, with Xia Yan's understanding of Su Chen, it was absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing.
If he really wanted, he would choose a forthright approach.
The reason for the misunderstanding was that the blow she had taken this time was too severe.
If she couldn't even trust her own husband, how could she believe in another man?
"Then I can go now?" Xia Yan said in a soft voice.
"Mhm, I'll take care of Chen Shuo's matter," Su Chen nodded.
Seeing that Su Chen had no intention of asking her to stay, Xia Yan felt a vague sense of loss.
"Wait!" Just as Xia Yan was about to leave the room, Su Chen called out to her.
"Yan sister, your clothes aren't looking good; wear my coat when you go out." Su Chen handed over his jacket.
Looking at Su Chen's face with a fresh smile, a sudden flutter of emotion surged in Xia Yan's heart.
She had just thought that Su Chen had changed his mind.
Her own man turned her into a bargaining chip in a deal.
Yet this younger man was so heartwarming.
By this point, Xia Yan had completely trusted Su Chen.
Because if this had been orchestrated by Su Chen, he would not have let her go at this moment.
Moreover, she could see that the look Su Chen gave her was very pure.
To say there wasn't any liking at all would be impossible.
But his gaze was simply one of fondness, without a trace of discourtesy.
Suddenly, Xia Yan launched herself at Su Chen.
He did not understand why Xia Yan would do this.
Not only him, Xia Yan herself didn't know why she made such a move.
So, had she finally betrayed?
Although Xia Yan always appeared to be bold, she constantly reminded herself.
That she was a married woman, firmly adhering to her bottom line, her principles.
She never did anything that crossed the line.
Yet, she felt no guilt at all.
After all, wasn't it Yang Jiajun who had sent her here?
Her coming over, wasn't it inherently for this very purpose?
If it were Yang Shuo in the room instead of Su Chen.
Perhaps, by now, she would have already...
Not much later, Xia Yan came out of the room.
She had changed back into a more conservative dress.
But was still irresistibly beautiful.
Su Chen nodded at Xia Yan.
Xia Yan left straight away.
Watching Xia Yan's retreating figure, Chen Shuo clicked his tongue in admiration, "Master Chen, what do you think? If you like her, I'll go speak to that young man, so she can keep you company for a few more days. I bet that man wouldn't dare refuse."
The young man Chen Shuo was referring to was naturally Yang Jiajun.
Although at the time, he and Yang Jiajun had agreed that as long as Yang Jiajun let his wife be his girlfriend for a day, the matter would be considered over.
But who is Chen Shuo?
Was he so easily dismissed?
Like that woman who cuckolded him, did she really think she was clean just by crawling over glass shards?
Lü Qian was caught before she could leave the venue.
Ending up in a very tragic situation.
Chen Shuo was a man of heartless and ruthless nature, especially towards the woman who had cuckolded him.
If he didn't make an example of her, wouldn't it be open season for any woman to cuckold him in the future?
However, Su Chen frowned and said, "Don't bother Yang Jiajun anymore."
Although he found Yang Jiajun's actions despicable, after all, he was still Xia Yan's husband.
"Speak up, what did you call me here for?" Su Chen didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer.
Chen Shuo's face suddenly turned very grave, and a hint of fervor could be seen in his eyes as he leaned in closer to Su Chen's ear and said, "…"
