Dragon Blood Divine Son-in-law-Chapter 40 - 0 It was me who forgot the reason

“You know it’s late, yet you’ve only just come back?”

While taking off her suit jacket, Han Jingting casually replied, “Didn’t I tell you?

Our company had an exhibition sale today, I was very busy.”

Chen Xuan humphed meaningfully, “Busy playing around, huh?”

Han Jingting clearly heard the sarcasm in Chen Xuan’s words and her expression instantly turned cold, “What do you mean by that?”

“Nothing much, I just wanted to remind you that you’re married now, and we have Xiao Yu.

Don’t always think about yourself before making decisions!”

Chen Xuan was never a petty man, but today he didn’t understand why he was acting like a petty woman, keeping count of every little thing.

Ever since he came back, the image of Han Jingting having dinner with Meng Junchen haunted him like a fish bone stuck in his throat, causing him relentless irritation, which he finally unleashed on Han Jingting.

After facing disdain and being marginalized outside, she didn’t expect to come back to a man criticizing her at home.

Han Jingting was completely infuriated, “Do I need you to remind me what to do?

Do you think I would have married a loser like you if not for grandfather’s arrangement?

Would I have wasted so many years of my youth on you without Xiao Yu?”

Chen Xuan stood there, stunned.

In all these years, despite whatever Ding Lijuan had said, Han Jingting had never called him a loser before.

But today, just because he gave an extra reminder involving Meng Junchen, she flew into a fit of rage.

Chen Xuan felt a chill in his heart.

So, from the beginning, she felt he was unworthy.

She had put up with so much for years only to avoid hurting Xiao Yu.

And himself?

He was nothing but a loser who had wasted her youth…

Seeing Chen Xuan’s sorrowful demeanor, a wave of regret washed over Han Jingting.

She had lost control of her emotions only due to a moment of anger, and as soon as the words left her mouth, she started to regret them.

But Han Jingting was always proud, and the thought of apologizing to Chen Xuan seemed difficult for her to swallow at the moment.

As Han Jingting hesitated, Chen Xuan left the bedroom without a word.

Han Jingting wanted to call out to him, but in the end, she didn’t speak up.

This guy even dared to throw a temper tantrum at her!

She had been exhausted from an entire day’s work and he didn’t have a single word of concern for her, instead speaking to her in that sarcastic tone.

Was it all her fault?

Too tired to think about it anymore, Han Jingting collapsed on the bed and fell straight to sleep.

The next morning, when Han Jingting went to the living room, she saw the dining table already filled with food.

Seeing Chen Xuan still busy in the kitchen, a sense of guilt rose within her.

“Do you need help?” Han Jingting asked nonchalantly as she arrived at the kitchen door.

“No, it’s not necessary.”

Han Jingting started to speak, then paused; just as she turned to leave, Chen Xuan’s voice came from behind her.

“I was wrong yesterday, I…

got carried away.”

Last night, Chen Xuan had stayed downstairs the entire night, smoking a whole pack of cigarettes, and had come to realize many things.

He suddenly remembered that when Han Jingting married him, it was completely against her own will.

From the start, she had no affection for him at all, so there was no question of betrayal.

Moreover, on their wedding night, Han Jingting had made it very clear that she hoped their marital relationship would be nothing but a facade; she would not meddle in Chen Xuan’s life, and hoped he would not interfere with hers.

Chen Xuan had also agreed to this arrangement at the time, but as time passed, he became too caught up in his role, which led to his outburst yesterday.

“It won’t happen again.”

Chen Xuan’s voice was calm, yet filled with a deep sense of helplessness.

Even Han Jingting could sense the bitter feeling in these words.

She was just about to reply when Ding Lijuan came over, looking secretive, and pulled her aside.

“Jingting, how did things go with Jun Chen yesterday?” Ding Lijuan asked excitedly.

Faintly hearing Meng Junchen’s name, Chen Xuan’s face turned cold as he faced the frying pan.

Han Jingting felt an inexplicable sense of guilt and lowered her voice to complain, “Not great at all!

Mom, can you please stop meddling in my affairs?

There’s no chance for me and Meng Junchen!”

Ding Lijuan suddenly became anxious, “How can there be no chance?

Isn’t Jun Chen a million times better than that good-for-nothing?”

Chen Xuan, carrying the prepared food out of the kitchen, overheard this but pretended not to.

A wave of guilt washed over Han Jingting, and she chose not to continue this topic with Ding Lijuan.

At the dining table, Han Bowwen seemed to recall something, “Jingting, I heard there was an issue at the exhibition sale yesterday, and you were even called over by grandma for a scolding last night?”

Han Jingting nodded silently without saying a word.

Chen Xuan was surprised.

So the exhibition sale mishap was real?

And the reason Han Jingting returned so late last night was not to meet with Meng Junchen, but because she was rebuked by Madam Han?

Could it be that he had misunderstood her yesterday?

Chen Xuan felt a twinge of guilt, “Jingting, what exactly happened at the exhibition sale?

Maybe I can help?”

Before Han Jingting could answer, Ding Lijuan impatiently snapped, “With your useless demeanor, what help could you possibly offer?

Just hurry up and finish your meal, wash the pots, and then take Xiaoyu to her tutoring class!”

Han Jingting sighed, “I have my ways of dealing with the company issues.

You just need to take care of the home.”

Chen Xuan understood.

Although Han Jingting did not boss him around like Ding Lijuan did, at their core, they were the same.

In their eyes, he was always going to be nothing more than a decorative piece to rely on!

“I see.”

With these words, Chen Xuan picked up his bowl and chopsticks and went into the kitchen.
