Don't Ruin Everything!

Perhaps others might not think much of it, but to Ling Feng, Xi Wan's words were an insult, especially when in front of Su Xun. It was like she was saying "Su Xun was so outstanding, so why would she go to him?"

When he thought of this, Ling Feng was slightly annoyed. Su Xun now held the power of the family in his hands, and he had the final say in the company's matters, but he wasn't at Su Xun's level yet; he still had an older brother who was competing with him for the family inheritance.

Just because he was born a little late, the older guys in the company all felt that he had an improper background and were unwilling to support him. He still had a long way to go if he wanted to gain their trust and break into the company to gain power.

"Wanwan, I didn't mean to say those things." Ling Feng still wanted to try to gain some sympathy, so he acted like an abandoned puppy..

Xi Wan turned around and smiled at him. "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you did that on purpose or not; as long as there is no misunderstanding with my husband after I explain the situation to him, and as long as it doesn't affect my family, there won't be a problem."

She then waved her hand dismissively. "I'll take my leave."

Su Xun, who had witnessed the entire scene, felt that she was really good at acting. She clearly loved Ling Feng and wanted to use him, but she just had to act like she was very devoted to him.

Just as Su Xun thought Xi Wan would say something, she got into the car and bluntly asked, "Do you want a divorce?"

Because he was too surprised, Su Xun was stunned for a moment.

The system immediately exploded. [ Are you crazy? You just offended the male lead, and now you're offending the villain! Are you tired of living?! ]

"When did I say I wanted to divorce you?" Su Xun raised his eyebrows as he replied to her question, looking at Xi Wan with a judgmental gaze.

After her rebirth, she had even more tricks up her sleeves. Could it be that something had changed in her?

He became even more vigilant around her.

"I'm picking you up to have a meal at the old man's place. I don't care what you're thinking, but you'd better take it back. If you say something you shouldn't, don't blame me for being rude." In this life, he would keep a close eye on her. If she dared to play any tricks, he would collect all the debts from his previous life, and with interest!

Xi Wan blinked innocently when she saw Su Xun close his eyes, as if he didn't want to talk to her anymore. He didn't love her, and she didn't love him either. Wasn't talking about divorce only natural in this situation?

[Natural?] The system raised its voice. [ If your mother hadn't been kind to his grandfather, and if his grandfather didn't strongly request that you marry him, do you think he would agree? You should be glad that the old master is getting on in age and that Su Xun is close to him since he was brought up by the old master from a young age. Otherwise, do you think that you can match him with your passable looks?"

Xi Wan retorted, "What do you mean by 'passable looks'? My face is clearly that of a super beauty, okay? Even if Su Xun is very handsome, I'm completely worthy of him."

The system didn't want to tell her the truth, but…. [It's only in terms of appearance. Your assets aren't even one-tenth of that person's. Your mother passed away when you were young, and your stepmother and stepsister are the top white lotuses. You were not doted on at all. When you got married, your father's company had some problems, and he had to be thick-skinned and ask the villain to help solve it. So, in this relationship, you are one level lower than them. ]

"..."

She had thought that she was a rich woman, but apparently she still couldn't compare to Su Xun. The gap between them was truly big.

Xi Wan smiled and tried her best to ignore the facts that the system had stated. But when she finally processed what she'd been told, she found herself confused once again.

She couldn't figure it out. Since Su Xun had already been reborn and knew what would happen in the future, why did he reject her after she said she wanted a divorce?

Could it be that…

[ Could it be that he wants to keep you by his side to take revenge? ]

"It must be because I'm beautiful, " Xi Wan said with certainty. "Even if it's just a marriage of convenience, my beauty will no doubt help preserve his public image"

The system was speechless.

Did this lady hear what she was saying? Did she have any sense of shame at all?

Xi Wan, who sensed that the system was about to question her, immediately used her arm to nudge Su Xun, who was resting with his eyes closed.

"Tell me the truth. Do you not want to divorce me because I'm pretty?"

[...]

"...What?"
