Chapter 138: Chapter 138 Marital Discord

Looking at Ye Xuan’s overbearing and invincible demeanor, Lin Tong’s heart was shocked.

By the time she regained her senses, she quickly grabbed her bag next to her and pulled Ye Xuan out of the private room.

It wasn’t until they had left the Xifeng Resort that Lin Tong released Ye Xuan’s hand and looked him directly in the eye, saying, "Do you know? Ye Xuan, you are such a jerk!"

In response, Ye Xuan merely shrugged his shoulders. Even if he was a jerk, he was determined to make those who bullied his wife pay a heavy price.

How could Lin Tong not be angry?

The banquet spot hadn’t been secured, and Ye Xuan’s crude and reckless behavior had effectively disqualified Eastern Group from contention.

She was unwilling to admit to Lin Dongfang that Ye Xuan was useless. She wanted to prove to her father that her choice of man was not wrong!

But after Ye Xuan’s disruption, the banquet spot was definitely lost, and she would be unable to explain the situation to Lin Dongfang.

...

Ye Xuan and Lin Tong drove back to the company in silence.

After parking the car, Lin Tong headed to the office with a silent Ye Xuan following behind her.

Once inside the office, Lin Tong sat behind her desk without speaking, just coldly staring at Ye Xuan.

Although she was moved by Ye Xuan’s domineering and forceful words just now, she couldn’t deny it.

In that situation, probably every girl would hope for her Prince Charming to appear, and she was no exception.

But Lin Tong was not a young girl. She had to consider the consequences and losses of Ye Xuan’s rash actions.

"Wife, why are you so determined to secure that spot?" Ye Xuan asked, furrowing his brows.

He didn’t understand. It was just a charity banquet. Was it worth such an effort to contend for it?

"What do you know?"

Lin Tong replied impatiently, "The Yulong Mansion’s charity banquet, and the whole upper-class gathering in East Sea City, is packed with riches and celebs! In name, it’s a charity banquet, but it’s really a feast for businessmen and high officials. It’s a business gathering once a year to expand connections, and for Eastern Group, it’s an opportunity."

"Even so, haven’t we just reached a cooperation with Huating Group? There’s no need to establish new business partners so soon," Ye Xuan asked.

"Since the Song Family has been gradually withdrawing funds, Eastern Group has been short of cash. Although we’ve signed a deal with Huating Group, it’s a long-term project, and it’s only for our ’Sweet Future’ product line! Because Lin Dongfang relied too much on the support of the Song Family, now every aspect of the business is weak. If Eastern Group could attend the charity banquet, meet some new business partners, these problems could be solved!"

Saying this, Lin Tong glanced at Ye Xuan and continued, "Moreover, I didn’t tell you before, this negotiation was actually for you to handle, ordered by my dad. You should know his intentions! Now that you’ve punched the butler, we can’t secure the spot, he’ll have more reasons to go after you, and I fear you won’t last long as the sales manager."

Ye Xuan finally understood the crux of the matter.

The charity banquet spot was not only vital for the company’s future but also for his own career. No wonder his wife cared so much about it.

"Wife, I see, I admit I was too impulsive then. But Lin Dongfang thinking he can use this to fire me is absolutely impossible!"

"How can you still talk like that when you have messed things up?" Lin Tong said with a cold face and an authoritative tone.

This guy needed to learn if he had no sense of the severity of the consequences!

Biting her silver teeth, Lin Tong spoke coldly, "Ye Xuan, it seems we need to re-evaluate our relationship."

"Wife, isn’t our relationship that of husband and wife? What else is there to define?" Ye Xuan chuckled.

"Hmph, as if I’ve never been married to you. Pack your things and get out!"

Lin Tong was resolute, determined to make him understand the seriousness of the situation.

Not everything could go as he pleased, always so full of himself!

"Wife, I’ve admitted my mistake, I’ll definitely change next time."

Ye Xuan cringed, looking pitifully at Lin Tong.

"Ever heard the phrase ’a leopard can’t change its spots’? I don’t believe you’ll change! Just go, I don’t want to see you," Lin Tong said, unmoved.

"Wife, you’re not really going to kick me out, are you?" Ye Xuan cautiously asked.

"That’s right!"

"Wife, there’s an old saying, ’one day as a couple means a hundred days of grace.’ We’ve shared a moment’s passion, and we’ve already slept together. Can’t you give me a chance to make amends?"

"Who slept with you!"

Lin Tong spat lightly, indifferently saying, "Don’t bring up that night. It’s like I was rubbed by a pig."

"Don’t say that, wife. Look how handsome I am; how could I possibly be a pig?"

Ye Xuan mumbled, but seeing the cold look in Lin Tong’s eyes, he quickly corrected himself, "No, what I mean is, you can’t just knock me down with one hit. I did save you from that old lecher. Even if not thanking me with an office striptease, you should give me another chance, right?"

"Just drop dead!"

Lin Tong blushed and gritted her teeth, "As my man, saving me is your duty, but you’ve messed up this negotiation, you should be punished!"

Lin Tong sneered, "You’ve lost your chance, no matter what you say now, it’s useless."

Ye Xuan’s eyes rolled, and he looked dejectedly sad, heaving a sigh, "Alright, wife. I get it. You’ve never really fancied me. Marrying me was just using me as a shield, not wanting to marry Song Shaopeng..."

Shaking his head in sorrow, Ye Xuan continued, "I have no status, no position. Just a country bumpkin from the sticks, how could I match up to you, a rich heiress? Since you’ve made things clear, I’m not shameless. I’ll just pack my things and go back to the countryside to farm. I won’t bother you again."

With that, Ye Xuan turned around and walked towards the door with a dejected slump of his head.

His lonely figure did seem somewhat pitiable.

Lin Tong hurriedly called out, "Hey, Ye Xuan, wait... don’t go..."
