How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?

Yesterday's events happened so suddenly.

The thunder and rain continued throughout the night, and Liu Sisi huddled in bed, feeling restless all night.

I started experiencing a dull pain in my abdomen in the latter half of the night.

When she went to the restroom, she was surprised to find a slight red stain on her underwear. She thought that perhaps the recent treatments had taken effect, and the emotional turmoil caused by Lin Lan's outburst yesterday had even brought her period back.

So I didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, all her attention was focused on the constantly refreshing latest news on her phone screen.

She finally managed to fall asleep, exhausted, as dawn broke.

Aunt Fang knocked on the door and came in. She saw Liu Sisi curled up in bed, fast asleep, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Then, she whispered to the man on the other end of the phone, "Sir, Madam is still asleep."

"Hmm, don't disturb her for now..." Lin Xuedong raised his hand and pinched and rubbed his brow, his bloodshot eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at the tablet on the desk.

It was full of gossip and scandals about him, and pictures of him leaving Lin Lan's apartment.

"The president of the Lin Group visits his sister's room late at night, and their relationship becomes increasingly ambiguous!"

"Miss Lin is a real-life example of a wealthy family's child bride; revealing the thought process behind raising a deeply affectionate and domineering CEO!"

"He couldn't handle his wealthy former fiancée, so he turned to his ex-wife from a poor family, but all he did was try to cover up the 'her' who was hiding her true nature!"

"I'm totally shipping them! A secret crush for twenty years..."

"The ex-wife is so pitiful. She can't have children because her former mother-in-law dislikes her, and she has to cover for them both."

"Pshaw, what's so tragic about it? Getting divorced and making a fortune is like hitting the jackpot, isn't it?"

"Sigh, the waters of wealthy families run deep; everyone knows that!"

"There's nothing to pity; all this humiliation is just a matter of mutual benefit."

The president's office on the 45th floor was completely silent.

Lin Xuedong held his forehead in his hands, his eyes closed, and sat there quietly without moving.

Time passed by, but it couldn't erase the bitterness and helplessness he hid behind his silence.

I'm sorry, Sisi.

He vowed to himself that this was the last time.

When the wooden office door was pushed open, Ah Xiao saw the man who had just stepped out of the lounge as soon as he entered.

He was impeccably dressed in a black suit, exuding a steadfastness and decisiveness like that of a poplar tree.

Beneath his neat buzz cut, his features were deep and handsome. Even with bloodshot eyes, it did not diminish the wisdom and composure that shone in his gaze.

Ah Xiao thought to himself, no wonder all those number one, number two, and number three women are lining up to fall for him. He definitely deserves the outstanding label on the headlines: "Deeply Affectionate CEO".

Swallowing hard, Ah Xiao stepped forward and said to him, "Mr. Lin, among the media outlets that were following us last night were people that Ms. Lin and Zeng Ziyan had bribed, and also..."

Lin Xuedong gently lifted his eyelids, looked at him, but did not speak.

“And... Huang Minqiu.” After saying that, Ah Xiao couldn’t help but glance at the man.

He frowned almost imperceptibly, then picked up his phone and dialed a number without thinking.

Li Songze arrived at Mingdong Gun Meeting in the morning.

He stood behind Lin Xuedong for a while, his gaze fixed on Lin's focused and clean movements as he gripped the pistol.

Lin Xuedong's expression was serious and solemn. He fired each shot steadily, and all ten shots hit their mark.

His upright posture showed no sign of being dejected by the scandal; instead, it exuded an innate composure and confidence.

After he slowly put away his pistol, Li Songze stepped forward with his hands in his pockets. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Lin Xuedong turned around, his dark eyes shining with a faint light, like a pool of clear water, with an indescribable clarity.

"Is the child alright?"

Li Songze frowned slightly, his voice cold, "Just say what you have to say."

Lin Xuedong curled his lips and tilted his head towards him: "How about we play a round first?"

In the dedicated shooting booth, the atmosphere instantly became heavy due to the cold aura emanating from the two men.

They gripped their guns tightly, their eyes fixed and focused, their eyes locked on the red bullseye 10 meters away.

bang bang bang-

bang bang bang-

After a fierce round of shooting, smoke filled the air, and the bullseye in front was riddled with holes.

The two men put down their guns and looked at each other.

The gaze hidden behind the goggles seemed to possess an all-knowing understanding, as if telling the other party: Don't be soft-hearted.

"What are you planning to do this time?" Li Songze crossed his long legs and sat down on the lounge chair, sparks flickering between his fingertips, his eyes unusually serious.

During this sensitive and special period, arranging a meeting at the gun club was a way to avoid being seen by others. Li Songze didn't think it was simply for entertainment and stress relief.

After a brief silence, Lin Xuedong finally calmed down, the faint smile on his lips vanishing instantly. A hint of hesitation flashed across his brow, and his fingers unconsciously tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair. Taking a deep breath, he slowly spoke, "I have a plan, and I'd like to hear your opinion..."

Li Songze withdrew his gaze and refocused on the distant bullseye. His expression was colder than usual, as if he had guessed his intentions, and he asked directly, "Are you trying to deal with the Chen family?"

"Heh," Lin Xuedong snorted, frowned slightly, and stopped what he was doing. "Originally, I didn't intend for you to get involved in this mess, but now the situation has changed. Huang Minqiu has actually colluded with Zeng Ziyan."

"she?"

Li Songze slowly raised his hand, took a drag of his cigarette, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "What evidence do you have?"

"The reporters who surrounded Sisi and me yesterday, and the online trolls, all had her people among them. Also, the last time there were rumors about you and Sisi, it was she who posted them online." Lin Xuedong's voice was low and serious, with a hint of barely perceptible anger.

A smoke ring dissipated, just enough to melt away the stiffness on Li Songze's face.

He remembered how that impulsive act had brought Liu Sisi utter ruin, exposing her to public scrutiny and ridicule. He knew that woman was always afraid of being judged.

Li Songze's face darkened.

Another large smoke ring slowly rose and gradually dissipated, but it could not take away the guilt and self-blame in his heart towards Liu Sisi.

Looking at the smoke in front of him, he remembered what had happened that day.

She was a low-key and reserved woman with a strong sense of boundaries. However, due to her momentary impulse, she was caught in that media storm. In order to protect her and Lin Xuedong's reputation from criticism, she had to bear the pressure and accusations from the outside world and silently shoulder everything.

Li Songze recalled that when they parted that day, she was still in the car trying her best to persuade him to stay with Huang Minqiu and make a family for their child.

However, all of this was caused by him and Huang Minqiu.

Thinking of this, Li Songze closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down.

"And the people behind them were the Chen siblings."

Lin Xuedong didn't let him run away; now was not the time to hesitate.

Today, he's going to close the net.

Li Songze opened his eyes, turned his head to meet Lin Xuedong's gaze, and his eyes were clear again. "Whatever you want to do, I'll cooperate."

Lin Xuedong pursed his lips and stared intently at Li Songze for a long while, his eyes deep and complex.

After a long silence, he finally parted his thin lips slightly, but his words carried immense weight: "This is a gamble. If anything goes wrong with me, please take good care of Sisi for me."
