After the divorce, the CEO knelt down every night begging for remarriage.

Perhaps it's because too many things happened recently, and life has become too tiring.

As soon as the intimate act ended, Lin Zhi's brain felt like it was filled with mush, and she couldn't keep her eyelids open and fell into a deep sleep.

I slept until 11 a.m. the next day.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was a handsome face that she knew all too well.

The owner of that face looked at her with amusement in his hawk-like eyes, the smile in his eyes undisguised.

The two were very close, their breaths mingling.

A deep, husky voice gently sounded in her ear: "Good morning, Mrs. Li."

For some reason, Lin Zhi felt a pang of sadness when she heard those words.

She often fantasized about such a scene when she first got married, but back then Li Tingze always got up early and left her with a cold shoulder, never holding her tightly in his arms like he did now.

Lin Zhi vaguely noticed that her legs were wrapped around his strong legs at some point, a close gesture that made her cheeks flush.

Temperatures are rising again.

Everything that happened last night felt like it was about to repeat itself right before my eyes.

Lin Zhi was so frightened that she pushed him away forcefully.

She stumbled backward, nearly falling off the bed.

The voice was filled with fear: "I...you...how could you hold me while I sleep!"

Such a question seems somewhat ridiculous.

Li Tingze chuckled and struck a pose he thought exuded masculine charm, "You haven't forgotten how you clung to me and begged to stay in my arms last night, have you?"

Lin Zhi quickly tried to recall the memory he mentioned, but couldn't find it.

He vehemently denied it: "Absolutely not."

Li Tingze took the hand from the bedside table and opened a dimly lit video.

In the video, Lin Zhi was like a supple snake, tightly wrapped around Li Tingze. No matter how Li Tingze called her, she did not let go. Even when he tried to pry her off, she clung even tighter, muttering things like, "Don't touch me."

The evidence was irrefutable, and Lin Zhi awkwardly scratched her toes on the ground after reading it.

Li Tingze really went to great lengths; even in that situation, he knew to record a video as evidence.

"Next time, let's sleep in separate rooms."

After saying this, Lin Zhi got up and walked towards the dressing room.

As she passed the cabinet where gifts were kept, she discovered that the gift boxes she had casually tossed in were gone.

Li Tingze walked up behind her, leaned close, and said softly, "You don't need to treat me like a monster. The fact that we've gotten to where we are today is the result of your choices. It's not that I forced you to compromise! Without my help, you would be facing endless suffering."

Lin Zhi's blood turned ice-cold.

My heart aches as if it's being pricked by needles.

After a long while, she said bitterly, her eyes red, "Since we have reached an agreement, I will definitely do as you say. Just pretend I didn't say anything. You don't need to keep reminding me how pathetic I was when I begged you."

Li Tingze frowned, his expression darkening, and said, "I'm not reminding you, it's just..."

He wanted to explain, but the words caught in his throat, and he didn't continue.

In their current relationship, he is in control.

There's no need to explain this kind of thing!

He changed his tune, saying, "From now on, I will have my assistant choose different gifts, and things like that will not happen again."

Lin Zhi nodded gently.

His face had regained its composure.

From beginning to end, Li Tingze never understood that whether the gifts his assistant chose were duplicates was not important.

The important thing is whether the gift was chosen with care by the person giving it.

She no longer wants to be sad about such things.

She simply said "thank you," and then went to the dressing room to put together a business outfit for Li Tingze, paying meticulous attention to details such as the cuffs, watch, and tie.

She prepared everything for him, just like before.

Li Tingze changed into the clothes she had ironed herself, stood in front of the mirror and admired himself for a while, and said from the bottom of his heart, "You have excellent taste in clothing."

During the break, Lin Zhi changed into a light blue shirt and a white long skirt.

It looks quite formal.

This is unlike the style she usually wears at home.

Li Tingze stared at her, then asked nonchalantly, "Are you planning to go out?"

Lin Zhi didn't hide anything and nodded gently.

She walked up to him and skillfully tied his tie for him.

As she tried to back away, Li Tingze grabbed her waist, his tone tinged with displeasure: "Who are you planning to see?"

Lin Zhi didn't answer him, but gently reminded him, "Today is President Qian's birthday. The birthday banquet will probably be held at their winery as in previous years. Remember to ask your assistant to prepare a generous gift. He always cares about appearances."

He grabbed her slender wrist: "And you, aren't you going to come with me?"

She smiled faintly and said, "You never asked me to accompany you before."

Li Tingze hadn't expected her to be so direct.

He released her, his smile turning cold: "What if I insist that you cancel your own plans and come with me?"

Lin Zhi naturally had no right to refuse his request.

Who told her to be the passive one!

Just then, her phone rang.

Li Tingze didn't make things difficult for her and let her walk to the side to make a phone call.

However, when he heard her say "Thank you, Mr. Shen," all his good mood vanished.

The mere thought that she would rather reject him than not dress up and meet Shen Mubai ignited an unnamed fire in his chest.

Lin Zhi had just put away her phone when her neck was grabbed and she was forced against the floor-to-ceiling window.

Li Tingze swallowed all the words he was about to say.

He was like a mad lion, devouring her mercilessly.

Everything happened so suddenly.

She was given absolutely no chance to react.

Intimate things happened.

Lin Zhi's brain was buzzing, and her eyes were as empty as a puppet's.

He ruined her exquisite makeup and well-fitting clothes one by one.

Tears slowly rolled down her cheeks.

Li Tingze, however, didn't take it seriously. As he put his pants back on, he chuckled and said, "Lin Zhi, don't forget the terms of our agreement. Without my permission, you are not allowed to have any contact with any member of the opposite sex."

Lin Zhi suddenly realized why he had gone mad.

Helplessly, she said, "I just went to talk to President Shen about work. You don't need to overanalyze my relationship with President Shen. He's not the person you think he is at all."

A cold hand gently stroked her face, and in the softest voice spoke the coldest words: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, neither you nor Shen Mubai can bear the consequences of deceiving me!"

Lin Zhi nodded obediently.

The two went downstairs together. The maid had already prepared breakfast for them, but Li Tingze didn't eat any and said it wasn't to his liking. This forced Lin Zhi to cook for him herself, making a double-yolk egg knife-cut noodle dish, and this time she specially added a small dish of aged vinegar.

Li Tingze frowned slightly: "Aren't you allergic to eggs?"

"But you love to eat it."

After saying that, she sat back down and buried her head in eating the breakfast prepared by the maid.

Li Tingze ate while observing Lin Zhi.

He noticed that after she returned this time, her expression was always indifferent, as if everything was unrelated to her.

Just before leaving, he changed his mind and said, "President Qian's birthday banquet is in the evening. You can use the daytime to take care of your own affairs."

Lin Zhi was very surprised.

The Li Tingze she remembered was not so understanding.

……

Perhaps it was Lin Zhi's indifferent attitude that made him uncomfortable.

Or perhaps he wouldn't allow his woman to be coveted by other men.

As soon as Li Tingze arrived at the company, he instructed his assistant, "Send someone to investigate and find out who Madam met and what she did."

The assistant was slightly taken aback, but then did as his boss said.

At 3 p.m., the person who was sent out finally brought back the news.

The assistant reported, "After seeing you off at the door, Madam asked the villa's driver to take her to a media company. When she came out of the media company, she was accompanied by Mr. Shen from Shen's Jewelry. The two went to a coffee shop together and had a cup of coffee. I don't know what Mr. Shen and Madam talked about, but after they left, Madam cried alone for a long time."

Li Tingze remained silent, his hawk-like eyes darkening.

she cried?

For whom do we weep?
