Chapter 317 - 317: We... Haven’t Divorced
Lin Wan experienced a brief moment of astonishment, yet her expression remained composed. She replied, “He’s still in France. He’ll be back later.”
Xiao Yichen, unable to contain his emotions, lost control. The hand that gripped Lin Wan’s chin swiftly shifted, wrapping around her neck with intensity.
“Oh, Xiao Yichen,” Lin Wan gasped uncomfortably.
Her weakened body struggled to draw breath, and dizziness clouded her senses.
Upon observing Lin Wan’s pained and desperate expression, Xiao Yichen’s grip gradually eased, though he didn’t release her entirely. He continued to hold onto her neck.
Lin Wan, fighting to breathe, mustered enough strength to look at Xiao Yichen and said, “Xiao Yichen, I left you five years ago. I didn’t want to come back this time…”
Before Lin Wan could finish her sentence, Xiao Yichen’s face loomed closer.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yichen sealed her lips with a forceful kiss before Lin Wan could react.
A chaotic storm of emotions consumed Xiao Yichen. Agitation overwhelmed him, and his normally ironclad control weakened significantly. In this moment, rationality gave way to impulse.
Humph, this woman is right in front of me. She is the exception in my life. How can I care about others?
After the passionate kiss, Xiao Yichen gradually released Lin Wan.
Lin Wan, weakened and flustered, adjusted her breathing, casting wary glances at Xiao Yichen.
She was afraid he might act impulsively again.
Xiao Yichen looked at the woman before him while experiencing a wave of emotion. Love stirred within him, but the memory of her past actions and Lu Hao fueled his anger once more.
Without warning, Xiao Yichen seized Lin Wan’s arm and embraced her.
“Xiao Yichen, w-what are you doing?” Lin Wan asked nervously, attempting to push him away.
However, her efforts were futile, and after a brief struggle, Lin Wan conceded.
Unmoved by Lin Wan’s resistance, Xiao Yichen muttered disdainfully, “D*mn woman.”
Lin Wan was taken aback as she met Xiao Yichen’s gaze.
Is this how he feels about me?
Xiao Yichen paid no heed to Lin Wan’s expression. He asked what concerned him, “At what stage are you and Lu Hao?”
Unwilling to answer, Lin Wan asserted, “My matters have nothing to do with you.”
“Nothing to do with me?” Xiao Yichen reiterated angrily.
The next moment, Xiao Yichen approached Lin Wan again, staring into her eyes nearby. He guessed, “Are you two being together?”
Lin Wan hesitated. Despite wanting to deny it, the memory of Xiao Yichen’s recent actions and words held her back.
In silence, she met Xiao Yichen’s gaze.
In Xiao Yichen’s eyes, her silence spoke volumes. His anger intensified.
Upon gritting his teeth, Xiao Yichen declared, “Lin Wan, don’t you forget, we haven’t divorced yet.”
After saying that, Xiao Yichen gradually released his hold on Lin Wan and stepped back. His gaze bore into Lin Wan with a fiercer hatred. He added, “When Lu Hao returns, I will kill him myself.”
Xiao Yichen turned around, ready to open the door and leave.
Lin Wan quickly grasped the situation. As Xiao Yichen reached for the doorknob, she urgently reached out, gripping his arm to halt him.
“No, no.” Lin Wan shook her head frantically. She explained to Xiao Yichen in a panicked tone, “I have nothing to do with Lu Hao. We’re not involved at all..”
