If Xu Yuanze had to choose between the two of them, he would definitely side with Jing Yunzhao, even if it was their first meeting.
As for Chen Xi, he had never really understood this woman for more than twenty years. He couldn't understand what she wanted, or rather, he didn't want to understand her for a long time.
Their marriage was like a deal back then. He gave her a choice, and she did not hesitate. At that moment, he felt that Chen Xi had an unparalleled yearning and obsession for the life of a wealthy family. It made him feel that the infatuation and devotion she showed was like an act.
At the beginning of their marriage, for the sake of Xu Yu, who was still young, he had considered whether he should try to become a real husband and wife with Chen Xi, but it was only for a moment, because her appearance made him unable to resist.
