Chi Xiao sighed, feeling that Huo Jingmo had already endured too much, and it was best not to forcefully expose anything further.

Chi Xiao had a strong intuition that Huo Jingmo still cared about Ruan Qian'an, otherwise his boss wouldn't have held on so tightly.

Chi Xiao still doesn't understand what kind of person his boss is.

Bu Zhou acted as if he were fleeing in panic, gritting his teeth and walking silently down the road.

The moment Bu Zhou saw the man clearly, his heart felt as if it had been struck a heavy blow.

The man possessed an extraordinary air of nobility, radiating confidence. Although his exhaustion made him appear somewhat disheveled, his exceptional bearing was unmatched. He shone like the sun.

That man was never truly trapped in darkness; unlike him, he was stuck in a quagmire from which he could not escape.

Bu Zhou was consumed by deep self-loathing, her face contorted with despair and disbelief: "Sister, is this your reason for abandoning me? Because of him, you don't want me anymore?"

"Why did you still abandon me and forget me even though I grew my hair long, the one you loved most?"

He walked dejectedly to Wu Ying's room, desperately wanting to vent something.

He didn't notice anyone in the room. He walked straight over, grabbed Wu Ying by the collar, and kissed her.

His movements carried a hint of ferocity; it was as if he were determined to drown in this kiss. To drown in this darkness, only endless depravity could bring him peace of mind.

He was in so much pain; discovering the truth was too painful for him.

Wu Ying frowned and knocked the crazed man unconscious with a karate chop. 07 stood there awkwardly, fidgeting with the hem of his clothes, unsure what to do.

Wu Ying threw Bu Zhou on the bed and looked at 07, who was in shock. She was about to explain something to her, but then she realized that she didn't know what she was supposed to explain to her.

07 looked the two of them up and down: "This is you?...."

Wu Ying's tone was a little flustered: "It's not the kind of relationship you're thinking of. I don't know why he suddenly went crazy."

07's gaze unconsciously fell on Wu Ying's lips, then he chuckled awkwardly, pointed outside and said, "I'm leaving now, I won't bother you anymore."

07 swallowed hard, feeling a little embarrassed as she recalled Wu Ying's slightly moist lips from the kiss.

She was genuinely embarrassed; their intimacy had caught her off guard and left her somewhat stunned. She had never witnessed anything like it before, and the scene sparked endless fantasies within her.

Wu Ying glanced at Bu Zhou with a gloomy look, then sat back down on the sofa in annoyance. She stared at the closed door.

She didn't understand why she was irritable. Was it because Bu Zhou kissed her in front of 07? Or was it because Bu Zhou kissed her without permission? She couldn't figure out why for a moment.

Just now, 07 surrendered voluntarily, without revealing that it was Bu Zhou who harmed her. Bu Zhou has completely ruined her plans.

Wu Ying treats Bu Zhou like a younger brother, and she can be said to indulge some of his behavior, but she needs to punish him in order to better control him.

Bu Zhou clutched the back of his neck and got out of bed, but his movements suddenly froze as he felt a sticky, cold gaze fixed on him.

Bu Zhou slowly turned his head and met Wu Ying's gaze.

Wu Ying crossed her arms and rested her chin on them as she looked at Bu Zhou and said, "Tell me, why did you suddenly go crazy?" Although she could guess the reason directly, she still wanted to know the specific cause.

Bu Zhou sat cross-legged on the bed and said something nonsensical: "I've seen him before."

Wu Ying was a little confused by what he said and looked at Bu Zhou with a puzzled expression.

Bu Zhou said, "I have seen photos of Huo Jingmo when he was a child."

Wu Ying: "Where did we meet?"

Bu Zhou: "I found a childhood photo of Ye Shu on his desk, with a big 'X' marked on it."

Bu Zhou said dejectedly, "There were many photos scattered around at that time, and I didn't realize what it meant at all. I just thought Huo Jingmo was just an abandoned experiment."

"But when I met him today, I realized that he had never been to that place before."

The divination master lowered his head.

He was the person Ye Shu found to accompany Ruan Qian'an, and also the person Ye Shu chose to mate with Ruan Qian'an.

There were ten boys with him, all of whom were around three or four years old.

At that time, the laboratory deliberately set up a class called "Learning" so that Ruan Qian'an could spend time with them and see who she got close to.

He was that lucky one. They spent a long time together, though he didn't know exactly how long; he had no concept of time at the time.

Sometimes Ruan Qian'an would leave the laboratory, even though he and Wu Ying both longed to go.

However, they were never allowed to go out; Ruan Qian'an was the exception.

Ruan Qian'an often secretly brought things for him and Wu Ying from outside. He liked Ruan Qian'an very much.

His sister was his salvation in this dark and gloomy laboratory, the light that shone upon him.

Did he ever think he was worthy of being with Ruan Qian'an? Did someone as filthy as him deserve it?

Perhaps Ruan Qian'an sensed that Bu Zhou was in low spirits.

So his sister smiled and told him that he was a very nice person and that he was very handsome. Gradually, the feelings between the two began to change.

But one day, Ruan Qian'an never returned to the laboratory.

When he was finally able to move around freely and wanted to celebrate his sister's eighteenth birthday, she had lost her memory and couldn't remember anything from her past, including him.

He still remembers his sister's indifferent expression and cold eyes, and the memory always makes him tremble.

He fled in panic, but then saw the rusty, yellowed photograph on Ye Shu's desk.

The photos of Huo Jingmo as a child no longer have a big X on them, but a checkmark in red pen.

His photos were thrown into the trash can.

Bu Zhou said, "Perhaps, at some point I had already become a discarded pawn."

Tears streamed down Bu Zhou's face: "We loved each other so much, why did they have to tear us apart?"

As Wu Ying listened to Bu Zhou's words, she leaned back in her chair and said, "I don't know what made you have the illusion of being in love, but I can tell you for sure that it's all your delusion."

"You must have noticed something after you met Huo Jingmo."

Huo Jingmo is the person Ruan Qian'an chose, which is why you saw the photo with an X on Ye Shu's desk.

Ye Shu did include you in her initial plan, and you were indeed chosen by Ruan Qian'an as she wished.

In Ye Shu's eyes, you were chosen as a mating partner to win Ruan Qian'an's love.

However, in Ruan Qian'an's eyes at the time, she had only chosen a weak and pitiful person; it was out of pity, not love.

Her true choice was Huo Jingmo; perhaps she fell for him the moment she first met him.

But this wasn't part of Ye Shu's plan; for her, Huo Jingmo was a variable. That's why she put an "X" on Huo Jingmo's photo.

Wu Ying propped her head up and said, "I don't know what happened between Ruan Qian'an and Ye Shu that made Ye Shu accept Huo Jingmo."

But I know that Ruan Qian'an was already engaged long before she stopped returning to the lab.

You're absolutely right about one thing: you were abandoned a long time ago.

Bu Zhou: "No! You have no idea what happened between us! You don't know!"

“Ruan Qian’an told me herself that she loves me! She wants to be with me forever.”

Wu Ying raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. Ruan Qian'an was playing tricks.
