“Ah Xuan, listen to me. It’s not like that…” Bai Ran thought about it and walked to Yu Xuan to persuade her.
Unexpectedly, Yu Xuan was stubborn. She said angrily, “It’s not the first time you’re like this. Last time, it was Huo Tian. This time, it’s this fellow. How many times have you hidden it from me? I’ve already said it before. Stay away from these people who always hurt you. Why don’t you listen to me?”
Bai Ran looked at her aggrievedly, but she did not retort.
She had indeed told Yu Xuan that she would not be with Chen Chen again. This time, she had broken her promise. She had nothing to say.
After some thought, Bai Ran replied silently, “Ah Xuan, I’m sorry, but I still want to say that it’s not what you think. Chen Chen saved me at Heavenly Lake. You were there that day, you know the situation. I didn’t express my gratitude to him because of some misunderstandings. I felt bad, so I wanted to treat him to a meal. We were at home because we didn’t want to go out. Don’t think too much…”
Unexpectedly, Yu Xuan looked around and snorted coldly. “Is that so? What’s with those champagne roses? Is there a need to be so romantic? Isn’t this your candlelight dinner? I’m really sorry to have interrupted your fun!”
Bai Ran was about to continue explaining when Chen Chen spoke again. “Bai Ran, don’t apologize to her. On what basis?! You’re my wife. Do I have to report to her what I do with you? If she has the mood, she should find a boyfriend herself. Be careful of endocrine imbalance!”
The usually calm Yu Xuan was already furious when she saw Chen Chen. At this moment, when she heard these words, she could not calm down.
“Then I’ll tell you. No matter who Bai Ran dates, she won’t be together with a jerk like you! The moment she gets close to you, she’ll become unlucky. How did you step on two boats to hurt her? How did you make your fiancée almost take her life? I hope you know what to do. Don’t be like a dog skin plaster clinging onto her!” Yu Xuan shouted angrily.
“You…” Chen Chen was about to retort.
Bai Ran said, “Ah Xuan, can you stop talking like this? I’m not your private property. I might divorce him, but that’s my personal choice. You can’t always control me…”
When she heard Yu Xuan say this, she instantly felt a little aggrieved and said it.
However, saying it at this moment seemed to be pulling the strings.
Yu Xuan looked at Bai Ran in disbelief and said, “What did you say? So you changed your mind again and don’t plan to divorce him? Have you completely forgotten how he hurt you? You’ve walked through the gates of hell many times because of this person. Don’t you remember?”
Bai Ran’s heart was in a mess as she replied, “I remember. Of course I remember, but things have changed now. I don’t know the truth about many things. I want to resolve these things first…”
She did not say that she would not get a divorce, but from Yu Xuan’s point of view, she was just backing out and hesitating. She was prepared to change her mind!
“Indeed, a few sweet words from him can make you forget everything from before. You disappoint me too much!” Yu Xuan looked at her angrily.
Bai Ran shook her head, wanting to say that she did not think that way at all. Everything she had said to Yu Xuan previously counted. She just wanted to thank Chen Chen today. She had no second thoughts.
Before she could speak, Chen Chen took a step forward. “Woman, you keep urging Bai Ran to divorce me. What are you thinking? Let me tell you, we’re not getting a divorce!”
Bai Ran immediately reached out to stop him and said hysterically, “Stop talking. Calm down!”
Yu Xuan took it seriously.
When she saw that Bai Ran did not deny it, she thought that Bai Ran was really going to change her mind.
She was instantly extremely disappointed. She hesitated before saying to Bai Ran, “Alright, I respect you. Take care.”
With that, Yu Xuan turned around and left without hesitation, slamming the door.
Bai Ran closed her eyes and felt flustered when she heard the door close behind her. She did not chase after him.
She did not know what she could say if she chased after him.
A good meal had been ruined again. She did not know what went wrong.
She did not want to let Yu Xuan down. Yu Xuan had helped her too much. Without Yu Xuan, her life might have been gone long ago.
However, facing Chen Chen, she seemed to have an uncontrollable instinct to get closer to him.
