My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 921 921: Strange Changes

Chen Xuan followed Ye Qingxian to the dining table and was momentarily stunned looking at the spread of dishes.

It didn't look like takeout; it looked more like homemade food.

"Did you make all of this yourself?" Chen Xuan turned his head to look at Ye Qingxian, his eyes slightly surprised.

Ye Qingxian nodded with a smile, "That's right, I made it all myself. Try it and see how it tastes?"

Chen Xuan was very amazed, "When did you learn to cook? I don't remember you being able to do this before."

Ye Qingxian gave a playful smile, "I just learned it recently! I was bored anyway, so I took up cooking."

"I made it especially for you to eat alone; no one else gets this treatment."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan felt a bit uneasy inside.

Ye Qingxian's intentions were obvious. It wasn't exactly to please him intentionally, but at the very least, it showed genuine affection for him.

However, he still couldn't figure out Ye Qingxian's thoughts.

Why approach him? Why be so kind to him?

Among all the women he's encountered, Ye Qingxian's mind was the most complex, making her unreadable.

He always felt that whatever she did for him, it carried strong ulterior motives, not purely.

"Don't just stand there in a daze, sit down and eat, or the food will get cold."

"I'm waiting for you to taste my cooking and give me some feedback."

Ye Qingxian smiled as she invited him to sit down.

Chen Xuan decided to stop thinking too much about it, "Alright then, let's see how your cooking is."

He picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

"Hmm, the taste is indeed really good, your skills are impressive!" Chen Xuan complimented with a smile.

Ye Qingxian giggled, "As long as you think it's delicious, it proves my efforts lately weren't in vain."

"From now on, I've acquired a new skill and can prepare different dishes for you."

These words carried a lot of information.

Chen Xuan murmured, "Qingxian, it's rare for you to be so attentive to me, but the more you are, the more uneasy I feel."

"I've made it clear before, we can only be friends, there's no possibility for further development."

"So, you don't need to do these things for me on purpose, I really don't deserve it."

Ye Qingxian's face showed no change as she chuckled lightly, "Is it because of Lin Wanxi? She refuses to accept me, so you keep your distance from me, maintaining a distance."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "I can't fully deny that. It is related to Wanxi, because she's my wife, and I must respect her opinion."

"Besides, it's also about my personal reasons, which you clearly know."

Ye Qingxian didn't say much else, only spoke softly, "Alright, let's not talk about this, let's quickly finish eating."

"Fill our stomachs while it's hot, and we can discuss matters later."

Chen Xuan nodded, saying no more.

The two fell into a silent atmosphere, with only the sound of eating.

This feeling made Chen Xuan increasingly uncomfortable, the atmosphere was too strange.

Moreover, Ye Qingxian didn't have her usual seductive demeanor, but was very calm.

It's hard to imagine she's the same Ye Qingxian from before.

And he can't understand why she's changed so much.

Is it because of him, changing her strategy, or is it related to the blow she suffered last time, altering her mindset?

Chen Xuan couldn't figure it out, Ye Qingxian was full of mysterious colors.

"Didn't Lin Wanxi come with you?" Ye Qingxian broke the silence first, asking softly while eating.

Chen Xuan quickly responded, "She's still in Jiangnan City for now, a lot of work hasn't been sorted out."

"Once all the work is arranged properly, she'll come here to set up a branch office."

Ye Qingxian nodded, "Hmm, her career is getting bigger and bigger, already far surpassing mine."

"In this regard, I've already lost to her, but I don't feel regret."

"Because in this matter, I've given you far more than Lin Wanxi!"

"And it proves that I care more about you, love you more than Lin Wanxi does!"

Uh...

Chen Xuan grimaced, as expected, the conversation led to this.

"Why say that?" Chen Xuan looked at Ye Qingxian, "I admit you've given a lot for me, but you can't compare that with Lin Wanxi."

Ye Qingxian waved her hand, "It's not that I want to compare, it's just the fact."

"What has Lin Wanxi done for you while being with you? In reality, she's only focused on developing her career, making it bigger and stronger, very successful."

"And what about me? I'm still running the cosmetics company, never expanded the business, far behind Lin Wanxi's career."

"Why is that? Don't you understand? It's for you, I'm willing to give up on developing my career, even willing to travel around for you, always ready to leave."

"I gave up the foundation I built in Jiangnan City, relocated to hustle in the provincial capital. Am I doing this for myself? You know very well why I'm doing it."

"As for Lin Wanxi, could she be as carefree, directly giving up the Jiangnan Market like me? She can't!"
