When they met again, the boss' eyes turned red, kissed her and said sweet words to her

It was as if I was back to that winter night four years ago, in the dark and empty cemetery, with a bone-chilling cold wind blowing towards me like a knife.

Xu Nanyin tried her best to calm herself down, but she couldn't even stop her teeth from chattering.

The cold, suffocating feeling she felt when she fell into the river seemed to drown her again...

Suddenly, Ye Zheng walked towards her slowly.

Xu Nanyin hunched her shoulders and stepped back unconsciously, as if she had turned back into the bewildered little girl four years ago who had no ability to resist anything...

She slowly fell down onto the steps.

Ye Zheng suddenly quickened his pace and walked to the stairs, asking, "Did you fall?"

There was a chaotic buzzing in her head, and Xu Nanyin couldn't make out what he was saying. She only saw him reaching out his hand towards her.

She instinctively dodged, pushed herself up from the ground, stumbled down the steps, and rushed into the thick night outside the gate.

Beside the sofa in the living room, Shen Wei watched her pitiful figure fleeing in panic, a gloating smile in her eyes.

The next second, she received a cold gaze. She turned around and saw Ye Zheng staring at her with a frown. Her face froze, and she immediately had a bad feeling.

Study room on the third floor.

Shen Wenjie pulled Pei Jingmo aside to discuss an overseas investment project, his face full of admiration. "They say the future belongs to the young, right? Old Pei, listen to Jingmo's strategic thinking. You and I combined can't beat him."

"Come on." Pei Muchuan smiled, but his tone was disdainful: "He's still far from it!"

Pei Jingmo lazily leaned back on the sofa, trying to smile: "What do you mean, Mr. Pei? If you mean playing with women outside, then I will never be able to catch up in my life."

Rebel!

Pei Muchuan put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table and repeated to himself three times: She gave birth to it, she gave birth to it, she gave birth to it, before he suppressed his anger.

"Old Pei, it's time for me to go back too." Shen Wenjie said.

Pei Muchuan: "Drive your Uncle Shen and the others."

"I can't." Pei Jingmo stood up slowly. "My wife is still waiting for me in the room. You can go and see her off."

The implication is that he has no wife waiting for him.

"Asshole!" Pei Muchuan was so angry that his teeth were itching. "You want to marry someone without a college degree instead of Weiwei? Dream on!"

Shen Wenjie suddenly said, "Old Pei, let's just make it clear today. I can see that Jing Mo doesn't have that kind of feelings for Wei Wei. Let's just forget about their relationship."

"Old Shen, are you kidding?"

Shen Wenjie said seriously, "I really think so. Moreover, although this is my first time meeting Xiao Xu, I feel that she is a good girl. A hero's origins are not judged. As elders, we should not be too stubborn."

"Learn from this, Mr. Pei."

Pulling his lip recklessly, Pei Jingmo walked out.

After going downstairs, he went straight to the bedroom, opened the door but did not see Xu Nanyin.

Where did this little guy go?

"Jing Mo."

Ye Zheng walked towards him.

"Uncle." Pei Jingmo raised his lips and smiled, "I'll introduce you to my new wife, your nephew's wife."

He took out his phone and called Xu Nanyin, but no one answered. Just when he was feeling strange, Ye Zheng said, "Xiao Xu, I know him."

Pei Jingmo sent a message to Xu Nanyin asking where she had been, and casually asked, "How do you know her?"

For a long time, Ye Zheng remained silent.

Noticing something strange, Pei Jingmo put away his phone and looked at him in confusion.

Finally, Ye Zheng said in a deep voice: "Four years ago, someone sent me an anonymous email telling me that you and Xu Nanyin were secretly in love. I was afraid that this would affect your marriage with the Shen family, so I went to see her privately."

"Her grandmother had a heart attack and was in the hospital. I told her that you and Shen Wei were about to get engaged, and I promised to find the best specialist for her, on the condition that she stay completely away from you."

The corridor was eerily quiet.

Pei Jingmo slowly straightened his back, his thin lips pursed tightly, his face pale to the point of bluish. His hands, hanging by his sides, unconsciously clenched into fists. The corners of his mouth twitched, but he was momentarily stunned, unable to utter a single word.

"Her grandmother still didn't make it after the operation. Xu Nanyin stayed by her grandmother's bedside until she closed her eyes. She cried all night long over her grandmother's body."

"On the day of the burial, she knelt alone in the cemetery until late at night. I was afraid she was going crazy, so I hid in the dark. I saw her holding your and Shen Wei's wedding invitation and calling over and over again in a state of panic. I guessed she was calling you, but it seemed like the call didn't go through. I thought you were planning to abandon her too..."

A stiff and violent look gathered between his brows, and Pei Jingmo clenched his fist and smashed it hard into Ye Zheng's face!

Ye Zheng was knocked back two steps by the fierce force. After regaining his balance, he continued, "It wasn't until three in the morning that she walked out of the cemetery and onto Binjiang Road... and committed suicide."

"Qin Fang was one step ahead of me and rescued her."

Just as he finished speaking, he was hit hard in the face again and fell backwards to the ground.

Pei Jingmo's eyes were red, like a lion driven to rage, and he grabbed his collar, "How could you? How could you bully her like this behind my back!"

It felt like a ball of fire was raging in his chest. He couldn't control his emotions at all and punched Ye Zheng in the chest again!

"What did Xu Nanyin do wrong! I was almost forced to death by you!" He roared in a hoarse voice.

But he suddenly realized that he was the culprit.

Blame him! It's all his fault for not protecting her well at that time!

No wonder Xu Nanyin has always been reluctant to talk about what happened that year. So this is how it happened.

How desperate was she that night that she decided to... commit suicide?

Pei Jingmo swung his fist again, but it hit the wall. The sharp pain in his knuckles made him grit his teeth, and his whole arm was numb from the shock.

He took out his cell phone, his hands trembling, and dialed Xu Nanyin's number over and over again.

No one answered.

"Later, I found out that the anonymous email was sent by Shen Wei." Ye Zheng leaned against the wall dejectedly, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Xu Nanyin left. Go find her quickly."

Pei Jingmo turned around and rushed downstairs. The pain from walking so fast caused cold sweat on his forehead due to the fractured little toe. He called the driver and walked to the garage together.

"Jing Mo." Shen Wei suddenly approached him and asked tentatively, "What happened?"

Pei Jingmo paused, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at her with a cold and intimidating look.

The night before his engagement with Shen Wei, he was in an extremely bad mood. That night, the Shen family came to visit his home, and he drank a lot of alcohol and was drunk to the point of passing out.

Xu Nanyin was kneeling in front of her grandmother's grave and kept making phone calls. Oh, and she seemed to have said that she had sent him a message...

But there were no missed calls on his phone, and when he woke up, he only saw the message that she had broken up with him.

The only explanation was that someone had touched his phone that night and deleted the call records and messages.

The only person who had this motive and appeared by his side that night was Shen Wei.

"Four years ago, the night before you and I got engaged, did you delete the call records and messages from Xu Nanyin?"

Shen Wei froze for a moment, but pretended to be confused and smiled as she asked, "Jing Mo, what are you talking about? I..."

The next second, her eyes widened in shock. Pei Jingmo's slender and powerful knuckles clamped her neck. His elegant and handsome face was covered with frost and snow, and his dark eyes were cold and intimidating. "Don't lie to me."

"Shen Wei, if you dare to lie, I will make you bear the consequences."
