Out of control and sinking

He was aloof and unapproachable, always so distant and unattainable, his voice low and helpless: "Jiang Ruan, does it matter?"

Before he could say anything more, Jiang Ruan had already pulled his arm away and turned her back to him.

Tears streamed down her face as she said, "Go to sleep, I don't want to hear it anymore."

Her slender back was so close, yet it felt like an eternity away from him, her prominent shoulder blades particularly beautiful.

That was Bo Ye's favorite when he was moved.

Bo Ye is cold-hearted by nature. Even though he is a few years older than her and has lived for so many years, all he has on his mind is his own grand ambitions for his career.

He devoted all his energy to the Bo family.

Bo Shi was his life's work.

Over the years, he has gradually transformed it from an average company into the top company in the capital.

Only Bo Ye himself knows what he sacrificed.

He didn't think about anything other than work, nor did he have time to think about anything else.

He never imagined that there would be a woman in his life.

Until that day, he met her. Her bright eyes shone like stars, but they were filled with despair. Her fallen and broken appearance reminded him of his past self.

Bo Ye had never been loved, and he didn't know what it was like to be in love.

His understanding of men and women was limited to the physiological aspects.

I don't know what got into him at the time, but he said those things to her.

At first, he was a little resistant to her.

But after a while, he actually got used to her.

No matter how late he returned to the castle, her image was always on the large bed. As he fell asleep with her soft, fragrant body in his arms, he inexplicably stopped suffering from insomnia and headaches.

She's like a treasure.

It comforted him on this lonely, flat-ridged land.

Jiang Ruan turned her back to him and sobbed silently.

Suddenly, her back pressed against the man's burning chest, her slender waist was embraced by him, and Bo Ye's cheek was pressed against her neck.

The air was filled with her unique fragrance. His voice was low and husky: "No." "No one but you."

The hoarse, grating words entered Jiang Ruan's ears like fireworks on a New Year's Eve, exploding instantly in her mind.

Her eyes widened, knowing he never lied. She bit her red lips, and her previously upset mood instantly lifted.

After a long while, she responded softly.

"Ah."

She turned around again, buried her head in his chest, and rubbed against him like a kitten.

Bo Ye wrapped his palm around the back of her neck.

His eyes were dark and deep, yet incredibly resolute. He closed his eyes and fell asleep in her arms.
-
The Bo family villa.

As soon as Xu Yun got up, the maid rushed in: "Madam, Mr. Bo is here and is waiting for you downstairs."

Xu Yun raised an eyebrow, her expression showing some surprise: "So early?"

Her eyes darted around, but her expression remained unchanged. She asked calmly, "How do you look?"

The maid shook her head: "I couldn't tell. Mr. Bo has always been very reserved, so has Madam had a falling out with him?"

Xu Yun snorted: "I'm his mother, what's there to argue about? I'm doing this for his own good."

As I picked up the comb to brush my hair, my mind was in turmoil; it was impossible for me not to panic at all.

"Let him wait. I'll come downstairs as soon as I'm done cleaning up."

Servant: "Yes."

Bo Ye waited for a full forty minutes.

Xu Yun, who arrived late from upstairs, was impeccably made up, with her black hair styled up and adorned with a white jade hairpin, wearing a light green cheongsam and exuding an air of scholarly elegance.

With her face meticulously made up, Xu Yun glanced at Bo Ye on the sofa, walked over, and said coldly, "Have you been waiting long?"

She sat down on the sofa with graceful posture.

She had barely sat down when a blue-and-white porcelain teacup was smashed violently in front of her!
Snapped!
It landed right at her feet, and the cold tea splashed onto the hem of Xu Yun's cheongsam!
She was startled and glared angrily at Bo Ye: "Are you crazy?"

Why did you smash my teacup for no reason?
