After being reborn, the aloof female CEO became a paranoid.

As he spoke, Yan Hao bent down slightly, as if he wanted to take a book from the lower bookshelf, but the movement revealed the burned skin under his collar.

As luck would have it, from Zhou Yu's angle, he could just see the small, hideous scar on the man's collar.

Compared to the man's fair skin, the scalded skin looked extremely jarring and terrifying, startling Zhou Yu.

Yan Hao seemed to notice this, so he turned around and smiled at him with concern, "Sorry, did I scare you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu shook his head and subconsciously asked, "How did you get injured?"

Yan Hao raised his eyes, as if lost in memories of the past. "It was when I saved Chenxi when I was a child. Our family and her family used to be neighbors. Once when I was a child, there was a fire. I don't know where I got the courage, but I rushed into the fire and rescued her. But I was left with many burn scars all over my body."

“I still remember when we were little, we played in the garden of the villa. She was a very easy-going person who doted on me. Whenever my parents gave her something nice, she would give it to me first. Every year on my birthday, she would also carefully prepare a gift for me to make me happy.”

"..." Zhou Yu listened to the man's words and looked at the sweet smile on his face, but he himself could not feel happy at all.

Instead, it felt as if countless ants were crawling into his heart, slowly and meticulously gnawing at it.

That kind of pain is indescribable.

However, Yan Hao's words did not stop there. A hint of melancholy gradually appeared on his handsome face. "The experience of the fire was a disaster for me, but also a blessing. I stayed in the hospital for a whole year. I was in so much pain at the time, but when I heard Dao Chenxi say that she would not give up on me and would take care of me and protect me for the rest of her life, I felt that everything was worth it. She is a very good person."

Yan Hao smiled gently and brightly, "So I am really happy to have found such a loving partner. This is something that many people can't force."

As the man finished speaking, Zhou Yu sadly lowered his eyes.

It turned out to be the case.

I originally thought they were just childhood sweethearts, growing up together and loving each other.

Unexpectedly, they had such a fascinating past.

Yes, this is something many people can't force. Even if he forcibly intervenes in the relationship, he'll only end up getting hurt.

Ultimately, he was nothing more than the third party who interfered in the relationship.

After packing his things, Yan Hao didn't linger and left the villa with his suitcase.

Watching the man's departing figure, Zhou Yu felt a sour and bitter feeling in his heart, as if a huge rock was lodged in his throat, making even breathing difficult and suffocating.

No, he can't stay here.

He shouldn't stay at the Mu family's house any longer; he has to leave!

Zhou Yu picked up his backpack from the cabinet, packed some personal belongings, and then sat on the sofa with his phone to check hotels.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Yu left with his bag on his back.

He was feeling terrible and didn't want to stay in the Mu family for even a second longer.

The rest of the things can be packed up after the divorce agreement is signed.

As Zhou Yu walked along the road, feeling the gentle breeze, his throat tightened again, unable to hold back his sobs.

No wonder he died a tragic and unjust death in his past life. Someone as useless and forgetful as him deserves to be discarded like trash time and time again.

If someone treats you a little nicely, you forget who you are.

It was clearly agreed from the beginning that it would be a marriage of convenience, with no emotional involvement, but he still knowingly broke the agreement. Now that his beloved has come knocking on his door, he'll have to pack his bags and leave in disgrace.

In his past life, he was ruined by Xu Xinran; in this life, he's ruined by Mu Chenxi.

Sure enough, there isn't a single good person among them.

From now on, he will sever all ties of love and affection, hoping only not to suffer the same tragic end as in his previous life.

"Well……"

As Zhou Yu was walking down the street, his mouth and nose were suddenly covered with a piece of white gauze!

He was startled and instinctively struggled desperately, but his strength gradually waned.

They've been drugged!

Zhou Yu's vision went black, and he completely lost consciousness.

When Zhou Yu woke up again, he was sitting on the ground with his hands and feet tightly bound behind his back, unable to move.

Zhou Yu slowly opened his eyes. As the scenery before him gradually became clear and bright, he also saw the woman in front of him with a gloomy and cold expression.

The moment Zhou Yu saw the woman's face clearly, he suddenly froze.

This woman looks somewhat familiar...

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yu suddenly raised his head, shock appearing in his eyes, "You, you're that woman in the restaurant before, aren't you Mu Chenxi's subordinate?!"

He remembered that the woman had greeted Mu Chenxi respectfully at the time.

He paid special attention to her because the way she looked at him before leaving the restaurant was a little strange.

Zhou Yu was panicked and scared, but at this moment he could only pretend to be calm and glare at her, "Are you crazy? Do you know who you kidnapped? I am your CEO Mu's husband! You dare to arrest me? Are you out of your mind?!"

Upon hearing this, the man smiled, a strange and twisted laugh that sent chills down Zhou Yu's spine as he curled up on the ground, raising goosebumps all over his body.

Is this person crazy?!

"Mr. Zhou, is that right..."

The woman slowly squatted down beside Zhou Yu, her smile twisted in an eerie way. "Heh heh, Mu Chenxi's man, you're the one I've got!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu's expression instantly changed, and he stammered out his thoughts, "You, you, you wouldn't happen to have a grudge against Mu Chenxi, would you...?"

The woman patted his face with a smile. "Yes, do you know why I kidnapped you? I know Mu Chenxi is incredibly powerful, but she has driven me to the brink of despair. Even if I die, I will take the people she loves with me!"

Zhou Yu's face was deathly pale as he stared blankly at her. "What did she do to you? Why do you hate her so much?"

"A month ago, I was entrusted by the Mu family to do a foreign trade transaction. I only received a little money during the transaction, just two million. But Mu Chenxi actually fired me! And gave me the worst E rating in my credit rating!"

The woman was furious, her eyes wide with rage. "Do you know what this means? Now all the companies have blacklisted me. I can't find a job, I have no income. She's practically driving me to my death!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yu roughly understood the situation and spoke up from a third-party perspective, "Please, you were in the wrong first. You're an employee of Mu's Group, and you deliberately accepted bribes and embezzled company assets—two million! Such a huge amount! Mu Chenxi only fired you and didn't send you to the police station; that's already showing leniency!"
