After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Those intense, unexpressed feelings of love have long since overflowed.

Sheng Yunchao smiled politely and handsomely, but even the strongest sunlight could not illuminate the darkness in his eyes.

“I have indeed been targeting you all along. Not only was the kidnapping incident a hoax, but the problems with the Dongcheng project were also intentional on my part. Do you know why?”

Lou Xiao coldly said, "Is it strange that you did such a thing? When it comes to unorthodox methods in business warfare, I am ashamed to admit that I am no match for you."

Footsteps sounded from behind, and several people came out, watching the two arguing.

Sheng Yunchao glanced at Mu Liangyue, who was leaning on her cane, and chuckled softly.

"When you and Mu Liangyue were living together, I sent people to clean up the mess for you; at the last party at Lou Changling, when you two got drunk and spent the whole night together in one room, I also had someone open the door for you in advance. If I hadn't been protecting you, could you and Mu Liangyue have been secretly having an affair for so long?"

Lu Sijian wasn't surprised; she had already guessed it.

Shen Baolin reacted strongly, turning sharply to look at Mu Liangyue, "You lied to me?"

She was thinking of taking Mu Liangyue home, and after searching up and down the stairs, Mu Liangyue texted her that she had already gone home.

Unexpectedly, the other party claimed to treat her as his best friend, but he had even kept this a secret from her.

She felt a sense of anger, as if she had been betrayed.

With tears in her eyes, Mu Liangyue said, "...I'm sorry."

“Jian, listen to me. I was drunk at the party. When you came looking for me, I was afraid you'd misunderstand, so I didn't say anything. Afterwards… I was also afraid you'd overthink things, so I had my uncle lie to you too.” Lou Xiao now felt incredibly foolish. How could she have made one mistake after another?

"You have to believe me, we didn't do anything, I really didn't betray you..."

Xia Youyou couldn't hold back any longer: "This is what you call not betraying me?"

She was utterly shocked. Because he was afraid of being misunderstood, he hid with other women and didn't come out. What kind of ridiculous logic is that?

She might as well just admit he cheated; she might then think more highly of him.

Lian Buman crossed her arms and rolled her eyes. "Believe that you didn't cheat on me, you might as well believe that I am Qin Shi Huang."

Lou Xiao: "..."

Lu Sijian said calmly, "I know you are innocent and did nothing."

"Ah Jian..." Lou Xiao called out excitedly, but his heart sank when he saw Lu Sijian's expression.

If you truly love someone, how could you not mind?

Lu Sijian: "Let's not bring up things that are already in the past."

As she spoke, her eyelashes drooped slightly.

When she first bound herself to the system, she rushed downstairs, but stopped the moment she saw Lou Xiao and stood on the stairs for a long time.

My heart ached slightly, and unfamiliar emotions surged within me, like reluctance, sadness, and finally, a sense of melancholy at letting go.

She had no idea what painful and difficult choices she had made, letting go of family, lovers, and friends one by one.

But she was also very rational, understanding that to be reborn, she had to cut away the rotten and decaying emotions.

The two of them had long since gone their separate ways; one must always look forward.

A pair of hands gently grasped hers, and Sheng Yunchao's voice was somewhat hesitant, "A-Jian?"

He was a little nervous. Could it be that she still had feelings for Lou Xiao?

Lu Sijian looked up and met his captivating peach blossom eyes. Suddenly, her heart was filled with joy, and she smiled slightly at him.

"You helped them cheat on each other to protect my reputation, right? They cheated, but I'm the one whose reputation will be damaged. People will only laugh at me for being abandoned and speculate that there's something wrong with me because I was in a vegetative state for three years, which is why my fiancé didn't want me."

Lou Xiao's reputation for being deeply affectionate is so strong that it's hard to believe. Plus, he's rich, handsome, and has amassed a huge fortune at a young age.

Unconsciously, they bewitched him, feeling that Lu Sijian was not good enough for him, and that he had already done more than enough by accompanying her for three years... Even if he really cheated on her and Lu Sijian wanted to break off the engagement, others would only think that Lu Sijian was ungrateful.

However, if the cooperation with Hewei Group is involved, the whole situation changes.

Not only has Lou Xiao's image as a devoted lover been severely damaged, but his business image has also suffered greatly due to the significant losses his company incurred for the sake of another woman.

Everyone felt that Lu Sijian's annulment of the engagement was justified, and the focus of the discussion was on Lou Xiao's infatuation.

This downplayed the resistance to annulment and the harm it caused to Lu Sijian.

This person was meticulous and calculating, yet he always protected her from any criticism.

"Sheng Yunchao, let's go for a walk." There's no need to dwell on the past.

Sheng Yunchao's peach blossom eyes were incredibly gentle. "Okay."

He held her hand openly and honestly, as if he wanted to announce to the world that she was now his.

The two left hand in hand. Lou Xiao wanted to chase after them, but Guan Yu stopped him.

"Mr. Lou, what about Miss Mu if you do this? Our boss advises you, since you're already together, cherish the person in front of you."

Lou Xiao's face was extremely ugly. "Get out of the way!"

Guan Yu wasn't afraid. After thinking it over, he figured that since he was going to offend them anyway, he might as well offend them more severely.

“Our boss never hides his feelings for Miss Lu, but do you know what? During the period before and after the annulment of the engagement, even though he knew it was an opportunity, he refrained from confessing his feelings, meeting her, or contacting her, because he didn’t want Miss Lu to bear any infamy.”

"But he wanted to see Miss Lu so much that even so, he would only drive to the vicinity of the Lu family villa, sit quietly in the car for several hours, and then leave quietly."

There are too many domineering CEO-forced love stories out there. Don't their bosses want that too?

Honestly, if their boss really goes crazy, who can stop him?

Butler Ling was often terrified, worried that his boss would lose control of his love and, disregarding all ethics, seize her by force and take her home for some illicit affair.

But what kind of love is that? It's about satisfying one's own selfish desires without considering whether it goes against the other person's will or whether the other person will be hurt.

"Liking is unrestrained, but love is restraint." Guan Yu said calmly.

Our boss's love is very evident; he always restrains himself and is willing to lower his noble head, making himself as humble as dust.

So what about you, Mr. Lou? Did you restrain yourself? Did you lower your proud head?

Lou Xiao saw the questioning look in his eyes and felt as if struck by lightning, her heart clenching with pain.

He remained silent for a moment, then turned and left, his steps becoming increasingly unsteady.

Mu Liangyue watched his retreating figure, feeling a deep sadness welling up inside her.

Lian Buman glanced at the two of them, thinking, "If only I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."

She suddenly turned to look at Shen Baolin, thought for a moment, and asked, "You don't still like Sheng Yunchao, do you?"

Shen Baolin snapped out of her daze, her expression suddenly changing. "What nonsense are you talking about? Who told you that?"

Lian Buman: "I heard you confess your feelings to Sheng Yunchao during that PE class."

Shen Baolin took a few steps back.

Mu Liangyue's eyes widened. So Shen Baolin really liked Sheng Yunchao? But wasn't she deeply in love with Zhou Guyang?

"You doubt what Sheng Yunchao said? Is he stupid enough to put you in the way of him and Lu Sijian?" Lian Buman rolled her eyes speechlessly. "You don't hate Sijian because you couldn't confess to Sheng Yunchao, do you? Are you sick in the head?"
