C9

Sage Path Group Headquarters, Sage Path Tower's top floor, within the luxurious Office of the President.

"Boss, as expected, it's not wrong. This Lee Yang is a crook. He didn't return last night with Young Master Cao Family after one night." Qi Tianchu excitedly came to report the news to Mu Sizhe.

Emma, this news is too much. If we reveal that young master Lee Family and young master Cao Family are having an affair, I wonder how the media will gossip about it.

Qi Tianchu was already planning on how to spread this explosive news out. After that, he would watch the Lee Family market and the big turmoil of the Cao Family market so that the Sage Path group would have a hand in this.

Mu Sizhe knocked on the table with his right hand. Thump, thump, thump. His rhythm was especially strong.

"Boss, say something, when are you going to reveal it?"

"Who said it was going to go out? "Hold on for a moment." Mu Sizhe looked at Qi Tianchu. This guy was usually unreliable, but he was definitely a rare genius in the shopping mall. He probably already had all kinds of schemes to trap Lee Family and Cao Family in his heart.

"Boss, this information is too useful to us. Why should we suppress it?" Qi Tianchu didn't know why Mu Sizhe was pressing down on the bank. He clearly foresaw a large amount of money flying towards them, causing the balance of the company's account to skyrocket.

"Hold it for now, I'll be useful when the time comes!" Mu Sizhe never stopped tapping his fingers on the table.

Qi Tianchu's eyes lit up when he heard that Mu Sizhe had a plan. Once the boss took action, it would definitely be an unexpected result. He was getting a bit impatient.

"Send people to keep an eye on Lee Yang. Report to us immediately if they find Lee Yang or Cao Zean."

Mu Sizhe's eyes showed that he was waiting for a good show. He wanted to see the expression of that dead woman when she knew that Lee Yang was bent.

How much could she love Lee Yang?

Qi Tianchu left excitedly. He liked to play tricks the most. Plus, his boss was going to personally act, so he opened his eyes wide and waited to see how the company's balance would rise!

When Lee Yang returned home, Lin Wenyi greeted him immediately. Lee Yang looked at Lin Wenyi with a faint expression, as if he had no intention of explaining where he went last night.

"Lee Yang, this is the Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs that you like to eat the most, compensate me." Lin Wenyi sat beside Lee Yang. She didn't care about her mother-in-law's sight. She picked up a piece of Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs and placed it in his bowl.

Lee Yang nodded at Lin Wenyi and started to eat. However, he did not eat the piece of Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs that Lin Wenyi gave him. Lin Wenyi's eyes dimmed.

In the past few days, their relationship had gradually become a bit better. In fact, they almost kissed a few days ago. Why did he become like this today?

Lin Wenyi ate with difficulty, as if she was chewing on wax.

"I'm full!" As Lee Yang said this, he put down his chopsticks and walked upstairs.

Lin Wenyi's heart ached as she watched Lee Yang leave from the corner of her eyes.

"Crying, what's the use? Would Yang Yang do this to you if you could have children? "One day, when another woman arrives with Yang Yang's child in her arms, I want to see just how you're going to deal with this mess!" Jiang Yongchun rolled her eyes at Lin Wenyi before standing up and leaving as well.

Lin Wenyi's tears fell into the bowl. Nanny Wang felt her heart ache as she looked on from the side. She shook her head and entered the kitchen.

Lin Wenyi stopped crying and went upstairs to the bedroom to wash her face. She patted her face against the mirror and sighed softly. Then, she came to the door of Lee Yang's study.

"Lee Yang, can I come in?"

"Come in!" Lee Yang's voice was calm like a stranger.

Lin Wenyi thought back to a few days ago when she suddenly opened the door at Lee Yang's door and fell into his arms. Their relationship had clearly improved a lot that day, but they hadn't seen each other for an entire night.

Did he find out about my shameful deeds?

Lin Wenyi was a little nervous. She wanted to get close to Lee Yang, but she was also afraid.

"I, I …"

"What is it? Tell me quickly, I'm very busy!"

Lee Yang had used this excuse for two years, and it wasn't unfamiliar to him now. Lin Wenyi's heart went cold when she heard this.

"I want a child." Lin Wenyi knew that Lee Yang didn't want to talk to her any longer, so she tried her best to quickly finish what she was saying so that he wouldn't be unhappy.

"Child?" Sitting behind the computer, Lee Yang's face was flickering. He remembered the test tube baby Cao Zean told him about.

"Hmm, why don't we go make some test tubes? We don't lack anything at home, just a child." Lin Wenyi said carefully, afraid of touching any of Lee Yang's nerves.

"Let's talk about it later!" Lee Yang said indifferently and stopped looking at Lin Wenyi. Seeing Lee Yang like this, Lin Wenyi knew he wouldn't say another word to her and left the study silently.

Lee Yang looked up at the door that was carefully closed by Lin Wenyi, and his whole body was once again in deep pain.

He also wanted to be a normal man and like women, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get out of the shadow Xiang Tiantian left for him.

Logically, he also knew that Lin Wenyi's love for him was so steadfast.

But emotionally, he could not feel her love, as if something had cut it off.

He was in a struggle between reason and emotion. His whole body was in a state of constant separation, and his emotions and reason could not be fused.

Or perhaps, it was his own subconscious rejection of women.

He had already clearly investigated the matter of Xiang Tiantian back then when he was in charge of Lee Family.

At that time, his father, Lee Tianxing, wanted to annex Xiang Family, so he bought a lot of them.

In order to protect his family's business, Xiang Family had not hesitated to send the only daughter of his, Xiang Tiantian, to Lee Tianxing's bed.

Although Xiang Tiantian had her own reasons, she changed her mind. She cared too much about herself. She broke their vow for a very long time and finally ended up with her father.

It was also because of Xiang Tiantian, that Lee Tianxing had not returned from the Lee Family for the past few years.

Lee Yang simply claimed that Lee Tianxing was away on business all year round and was in charge of the branch office. Even his mother, Jiang Yongchun, was buried in her bones, and she had always felt sorry for her husband.

If not for Cao Zean's mention of her today, Lee Yang would have almost forgotten about Xiang Tiantian.

A few years ago, he had used Xiang Tiantian's Xiang Family in exchange for a few years' lifespan of his Xiang Family, so who was going to save his Xiang Family now?

A hint of fierceness flashed across Lee Yang's eyes.

Lin Wenyi left Lee Yang's room and returned to her bedroom. She closed the window tightly and lay down.

When Lee Yang went back to his room, it was already early in the morning. He saw the window was tightly closed. He frowned and went forward to open the window.

Unexpectedly, the moment he opened the window, Lin Wenyi ran over and closed the window as if she had gone mad. Only after closing the window did she heave a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing?"

"I can't sleep with the window open." Lin Wenyi forced a smile as she turned around and lay down.

Lee Yang stood in front of the window and looked at Lin Wenyi for a long time. Then, he slowly walked to the bed and placed the pillow beside Lin Wenyi. He then lifted up the blanket and lay down.

"If you're scared, you can hug me." Lee Yang didn't turn around to look at Lin Wenyi. When Lin Wenyi heard Lee Yang's words, she felt as if she had heard a fantasy. It was ridiculous, sweet and slightly bitter.

Lee Yang waited for a long time before he felt a lump of softness approach him. He reached his hand through her neck and held her in his arms.

Since he couldn't give her what she wanted, he might as well give her what he could. It would also reduce his self-blame and indebtedness.

For example, at this moment, she was acting as her protector.
