The atmosphere in Laura's luxurious executive suite was tense and solemn.

Xu Xinran has found out that the mastermind behind the leaked information is Chu Youchen!

Laura stood beside Xu Xinran, her gaze fixed on Xu's stern face, and couldn't help but speak up to persuade her:

“Xinran, why don’t you be honest with Chu Yu this time? Tell him that you are both Xu Xinran and Mu Chenxi, and let him understand that a marital relationship has always existed between you…”

However, before Laura could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Xu Xinran's deep gaze.

Xu Xinran's red lips curved into a faint smile, the coldness of which sent chills down one's spine: "Confess? Then I will lose him completely."

"But continuing to deceive him will only cause him greater harm."

As an observer, Laura knew Xu Xinran's plans better than anyone else.

She wanted to use Mu Chenxi's identity to help Chu Yu and make him fall in love with her again through this identity. But a person is ultimately a person and cannot truly split into two.

One day, Chu Yu will discover the truth, and when that happens, his sincere feelings, once again, will only bring him deeper pain.

Laura, an outsider, understands this principle, so why does Xu Xinran seem to be lost in a fog?

Or perhaps, they are just deceiving themselves.

Just then, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Laura looked at Xu Xinran, shook her head helplessly, and got up to open the door.

However, as soon as she opened the door, an angry woman barged in.

As soon as He Manting entered the room, her gaze fell on Xu Xinran, who was standing by the French windows!

She rushed forward, taking two steps at a time, and the next second, without hesitation, swung the sword at Xu Xinran's face.

Xu Xinran did not dodge and took the slap head-on.

She had expected He Manting to come knocking on her door, but He Manting was not someone to be trifled with.

If He Manting hadn't taken Chu Yu away back then... Thinking of this, Xu Xinran's eyes hardened, and she slapped He Manting hard across the face!

Chu Yu rushed to the scene, only to be met with chaos.

The two women were wrestling like madmen, their strength astonishing. They grabbed each other's hair, their eyes filled with hatred, as if they wanted to kill each other!

"Sister Manting, stop! Xu Xinran, please don't do this!"

Chu Yu was extremely anxious and rushed forward to try to stop the frenzied fight.

In the chaos, he inadvertently pushed Xu Xinran away, causing her to lose her footing and stagger backward, swaying precariously and about to fall to the ground!

In her panic, Xu Xinran tried to grab onto something to steady herself, but to no avail.

She closed her eyes tightly, waiting for the expected pain, but an inexplicable force lifted her up, and then she fell into a warm and familiar embrace.

The familiar scent instantly enveloped her, making her heart race and her breathing become rapid.

She suddenly opened her eyes and met Chu Yu's deep and silent gaze, which seemed to see through all the secrets in her heart.

However, once Xu Xinran had stood firmly in place, Chu Yu quickly pushed her away, his eyes filled with resistance.

Xu Xinran sensed his resistance, but she wasn't angry; she simply followed him with concerned eyes.

She tried to walk past He Manting to Chu Yu, but He Manting blocked her way fiercely.

"You've hurt Chu Yu time and time again, do you think I'll still let you get close to him?"

He Manting's tone was full of anger.

Xu Xinran smiled slightly and replied calmly, "I didn't do that."

She spoke these words more to Chu Yu than to He Manting. In her heart, only Chu Yu's opinion mattered; she didn't care what others thought of her.

He Manting was furious when she saw Xu Xinran's attitude.

"You dare to do it but not admit it, huh?!"

Xu Xinran remained unmoved, her face still bearing that indifferent expression. Her gaze remained fixed on Chu Yu, as if waiting for his response.

She wondered if he had come today to ask her for the truth, or to interrogate her.

She didn't care about other people's opinions; she only cared about Chu Yu's thoughts.
