Shen Jingyan looked at Jiang Xiyan silently, with a trace of struggle and pain in her eyes, but she finally nodded, indicating that she was willing to believe his words. However, at the same time, she also clearly realized in her heart that the future of this relationship was full of too many uncertainties, and whether they could go to the end was still unknown.

Shen Jingyan bit her lips tightly, as if she wanted to swallow the pain in her heart. After a while, she whispered, "But... your luxurious wedding is being broadcast everywhere in the country, whether it's airports, train stations or shopping malls. Now the whole world knows that you are married. If we continue to entangle like this, I'm afraid it will have a bad impact on your company. After all, you just took back the company not long ago, and the foundation is not solid enough."

Hearing these words, Jiang Xiyan couldn't help but sneer, and his expression instantly became cold. He replied coldly: "Haha, I'm not afraid of that woman." After that, he reached out and held Shen Jingyan's hand tightly, revealing a firm determination in his eyes, and then said: "I will handle the company's affairs properly, and I will never let anyone hurt you in the slightest."

Shen Jingyan looked at Xia Qingcheng not far away and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was really beautiful. With her delicate facial features, fair skin, and elegant temperament, Shen Jingyan had never seen such a beautiful woman. She really couldn't believe that Jiang Xiyan had no feelings for such a woman. "Xia Qingcheng is as her name suggests, and she is the daughter of a wealthy family. I can't compare with her. You really don't have a single heartbeat for such a fairy-like woman!"

Jiang Xiyan frowned slightly and looked at Shen Jingyan seriously, "Jingyan, in my eyes, you are the most beautiful." He stretched out his hand and took Shen Jingyan into his arms, his voice low and gentle, "There is only you in my heart, no one else."

Shen Jingyan gently pushed Jiang Xiyan, "Then let's use time to verify it! I have something else to do in the company, so I'll leave first!"

Jiang Xiyan held Shen Jingyan's hand tightly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his eyes, "I'll take you there. There's something I want to explain to you about Xia Qingcheng..."

"Okay." Shen Jingyan nodded.

Jiang Xiyan got into the car with Shen Jingyan and told the driver to drive to Shen Jingyan's company. Then he turned to look at Shen Jingyan with a serious look, "Jingyan, don't misunderstand, there is nothing between Xia Qingcheng and me."

Shen Jingyan raised her chin slightly, "You have given her everything except your feelings!"

Jiang Xiyan admitted that he had done some things to save Shen Jingyan. He paused, a trace of guilt flashed across his face, "But that was just a temporary measure. I have never had any feelings for her. You are the only one in my heart."

Shen Jingyan snorted, "Even if you want to save me, you can't give your body to her! Or you men, as long as a woman takes the initiative, you will take it all."

Jiang Xiyan pinched his brows with a headache and explained helplessly: "I have already said that it was just to save you. Nothing happened between her and me. Why don't you believe it?"

"If I believe you, there will be trouble." Shen Jingyan turned her head away.

"Everything I said is true." Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan solemnly, with a hint of anxiety in his tone, "I don't have any feelings for her. How can you believe me?"

Shen Jingyan turned around and looked at Jiang Xiyan, "I want you to divorce her and marry me, can you do it?"

Jiang Xiyan was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Divorce... I will consider it, but not now." A trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "I don't want you to get hurt because of this."

"Okay, I'll wait for you then." Shen Jingyan's mouth slightly raised, revealing a charming smile, her eyes fixed on the man in front of her - Jiang Xiyan. Her eyes flashed with anticipation, as if she could see the beautiful future through his eyes.

Jiang Xiyan stared at Shen Jingyan closely, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes, as if he was experiencing a storm in his heart. He stared at her quietly, and after a moment, he finally said: "Jingyan, give me some time, I will handle these things properly, and I will definitely not let you wait too long."

Shen Jingyan raised her head, her eyes met Jiang Xiyan's, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, but her eyes revealed a hint of firmness and determination. She said: "Okay, I hope you won't let me down."

Jiang Xiyan took a deep breath, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he solemnly said to Shen Jingyan: "I will never let you down, Jingyan, please believe me." After that, he stretched out a hand, gently held Shen Jingyan's hand, and his fingers gently stroked the back of her hand, as if conveying a silent promise.

Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan again, his voice low and affectionate: "There is only you in my heart, Jingyan, no matter what happens, this will never change. Please believe in my feelings for you." His eyes were like the deep lake water, full of sincerity and affection, which moved people.

As the night deepened, the entire city was shrouded in darkness, with only a few lights dotted in between. Xia Qingcheng sat on the sofa, quietly waiting for Jiang Xiyan's return. Her eyes were a little tired, but full of expectation and worry.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was already past midnight, but Jiang Xiyan still hadn't shown up. Xia Qingcheng began to feel uneasy. She kept looking at her watch, silently praying that he would be safe. Finally, there was a slight noise outside the door, followed by the sound of the door opening. Xia Qingcheng immediately stood up and walked quickly to the door to greet Jiang Xiyan.

When she saw Jiang Xiyan appear at the door, Xia Qingcheng finally felt relieved. However, when she carefully observed Jiang Xiyan's expression, she found that his face was extremely pale, and his eyes revealed a trace of fatigue that was difficult to conceal.

"Why did you just come back..." Xia Qingcheng said softly, trying to make her tone sound more relaxed. But there was still a hint of concern and nervousness in her voice.

Jiang Xiyan drunkenly pushed Xia Qingcheng away, staggered to the sofa, and lay down directly with his eyes closed. Xia Qingcheng looked at him like this, feeling angry and helpless.

"You came back so late. Did you go on a date with Shen Jingyan? That's why you came back so late!" Xia Qingcheng's tone was questioning.

Jiang Xiyan was drunk and angry, and he looked at Xia Qingcheng with a frown, "So what? Xia Qingcheng, what qualifications do you have to control me?" His eyes were full of indifference.

"I'm your wife, why don't I have the right to control you?" Xia Qingcheng's voice rose a few degrees, her eyes flashing with anger and disappointment. She couldn't understand why she, as his wife, had no right to interfere in his life.

Jiang Xiyan sneered, propped himself up and sat up, looking at Xia Qingcheng with cold eyes, as if she was just a stranger. His voice was full of disdain: "You are just my wife in name only, there is only a contractual relationship between us, I advise you to have some self-awareness."

Xia Qingcheng's face turned pale, and she felt a tingling pain. She had never thought that their marriage would be so fragile and so lacking in real emotions. But she would not give up easily, she took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.

"You should know yourself! You are a married man now, don't think about having an affair all the time." Xia Qingcheng glared at Jiang Xiyan, her voice was firm and resolute. She could not tolerate his infidelity in marriage, and she could not accept his indifference and contempt for her.

Jiang Xiyan's mouth curled up into a mocking smile, and he seemed to find Xia Qingcheng's accusation ridiculous. He said without disguising: "This is my way of life, I don't need you to teach me. If you are not satisfied, you can leave at any time."

Xia Qingcheng's heart was completely chilled. She had never thought that Jiang Xiyan would be so ruthless and ungrateful. However, she did not back down. Instead, she straightened her spine and faced his indifference.

"I won't leave, but I won't tolerate your behavior anymore. Do you like to be an adulterer so much?" Xia Qingcheng's tone was firm and resolute. She knew she needed to defend her dignity and rights, while also sticking to the bottom line of this marriage. Although she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart that she could change Jiang Xiyan, she also knew that it would be a difficult battle.

Jiang Xiyan's body was swaying, as if he would fall down at any moment, but he still stood up with difficulty. He stretched out his finger, trembling, and pointed it at Xia Qingcheng's nose, his voice full of drunkenness and anger: "Slut? What evidence do you have? Xia Qingcheng, I tell you, stop slandering me here!"

Xia Qingcheng's eyes were full of determination. She looked back at Jiang Xiyan without fear and said loudly: "I tell you, since you are married to me, you have to forget Shen Jingyan."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiyan sneered, as if he had heard a big joke. He snorted contemptuously, with a flash of disdain in his eyes: "Forget her? Why do you think you can control my feelings?"

Xia Qingcheng's face turned pale, but she still pretended to be calm and said coldly: "Okay, Jiang Xiyan, you are so cruel." After that, she turned around and left the luxurious villa without looking back.

Jiang Xiyan looked at Xia Qingcheng's departing figure, and suddenly a sense of inexplicable irritation surged in his heart. He smashed the bottle in his hand to the ground, and glass fragments flew everywhere. Then, he picked up another bottle of wine, tilted his head back and took a gulp. The wine flowed down the corners of his mouth and soaked his collar, but he didn't care at all.

"Hmph, it's best if you leave..." Jiang Xiyan's heart was full of contradictions and pain. He didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Xia Qingcheng, and he could never forget Shen Jingyan.
