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

"Mom!" Liu Sisi was in no mood to listen to any of this. She frowned and said, "But I don't want to trouble Brother Li. What I need to know right now is how Adong is doing."

Didn't my mother always try to keep me from getting too close to Li Songze?

Recalling the scene when Li Songze said "She is my girlfriend" to Xie Xue's face with certainty and without any hesitation, Liu Sisi's expression instantly became complicated.

Her gaze lowered slightly, her long eyelashes trembled gently, and a wave of helplessness washed over her eyes.

Li Songze's feelings for her, whether overt or covert, were no secret for a long time.

He silently protected her in many unexpected moments, his affection for her was unreserved yet without any limits, and this descent into depravity broke her heart.

But Liu Sisi could only feel helpless about the misalignment of her feelings.

Her heart was already completely filled with Lin Xuedong, and her joys and sorrows were all closely connected with that man.

Those shared experiences, whether sweet or bitter, have left a deep imprint on her heart, one she can never forget.

Hearing her daughter's words, Zeng Meiyu's lips twitched slightly. She tilted her head back, suppressing the tears welling up in her eyes. "That's for sure. But you can't disobey the doctor's orders now; you need to rest and recuperate here!"

After saying that, he gripped the armrests of the wheelchair tightly and pushed it forward.

The wheels rolled on the ground with a dull thud, and she dared not slow down.

At night, all the lights in the ward, big and small, were on, casting their glow on every corner.

Having held her phone for the nth time, only to find nothing, Liu Sisi's eyes seemed to be looking through a thick, hazy layer of frosted glass. Lost and bewildered, she sat blankly on the hospital bed like a stone sculpture.

She couldn't get through to Lin Xuedong's phone again.

When she dialed the number, all she heard was a monotonous and cold tone, shattering her hopes time and time again.

Not only that, but Ah Xiao and Xie Zhanming also seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

The wall-mounted TV was continuously playing the city's breaking financial news. The volume wasn't loud, but it was like sharp musical notes, each news segment striking her already taut heartstrings with precision.

She was only in a coma for five days. If anything had happened to the Lin family during that time, there would have been no news about it.

Therefore, Liu Sisi listened attentively, not missing a single word.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door to the suite's living room, and Du Zhentao walked in.

The moment Zeng Meiyu saw him, her eyes lit up instantly.

She rushed forward, blocking his path in the entryway. Lowering her voice, her tone was filled with barely suppressed urgency. "Sisi is starting to get suspicious. Will this method even work?"

"Mr. Li hasn't found Lin Xuedong's whereabouts yet, and for now, we can only stall for time regarding Sisi." Du Zhentao sighed, his brows furrowing involuntarily.

Zeng Meiyu clenched her fists, her eyes gleaming. "Tell me, what will Sisi do if anything happens to Adong?"

Her trembling voice was full of self-reproach. She shouldn't have broken up the couple. If it weren't for those obstacles, things might not be like this now.

“Aunt Zeng, let’s not scare ourselves. When the doctor asked us to sign the critical condition notice, it was probably just a formality.” Du Zhentao reached out and gently pressed Zeng Meiyu’s hand, trying to calm her down.

He stood in the living room and glanced at the door to the ward, forcing a reassuring smile as he said, "I inquired with Xiao Bai, and everything is normal within the Lin Group. They've only announced to the outside world that the president went abroad on official business, and that Assistant Xiao went with him."

“Sisi has called Assistant Xiao and Mr. Xie, but she couldn’t reach them…” Zeng Meiyu frowned, her shoulders slumped slightly, and she looked exhausted.

After returning from the doctor's, Liu Sisi kept making phone calls using her own phone.

She could only stay by her daughter's side, watching helplessly as she anxiously searched for Lin Xuedong's whereabouts, only to return disappointed time and time again...

Du Zhentao blinked slightly, seemingly pondering his next move, but unease also lingered in his eyes.

After all, no one can be sure of Lin Xuedong's true situation.

“Aunt Zeng, Mr. Li and I are working together on Sisi’s side. If necessary… I will hypnotize Sisi again to calm her down, so please don’t worry too much.” Du Zhentao lowered his voice, and when he mentioned the word “hypnosis,” he paused unconsciously.

That was not the method he wanted to take, but in this difficult situation, it seemed to be a choice he had no other option but to make.

Zeng Meiyu looked up at Du Zhentao.

He wore a light gray, slim-fitting suit, and his well-proportioned figure gave him a friendly and reliable feel. His short, jet-black hair was neatly styled yet looked natural.

Her eyes were like deep, dark lakes, both dark and gentle, always carrying a reassuring smile. But at this moment, they were filled with deep worry.

Zeng Meiyu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her throat was choked by worry.

In the end, she could only nod helplessly, but the worry on her face did not lessen at all.

knock knock knock

"Sisi?" Du Zhentao called softly as he slowly pushed open the door.

The slight sound of the door hinges turning seemed not to disturb the woman lying on the hospital bed, lost in thought.

Upon seeing this, he paused slightly and stopped in his tracks...

At the same time, Sudi, who had just pushed open the heavy wooden door of the office, was suddenly choked by the strong smell of nicotine that filled the room and coughed several times.

He instinctively covered his mouth and nose with his fist, but his feet didn't falter as he strode towards the man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. "Ahem, President, we have a lead on President Lin."

Li Songze paused slightly, his clothes tracing an arc in the air as he turned.

He looked directly at Sudi, his gaze piercing. "Speak!"

"Ahem, just as you predicted, Mr. Lin is in Paris now."

A few sparks danced between his fingertips, and Li Songze's dark eyes narrowed slightly. "Who's with him?"

“Besides Chairman Lin not accompanying me, he brought Assistant Xiao, Attorney Xie, and…” At this point, Su Di secretly raised her eyes.

The man before me had a cold and indifferent expression, as if he could freeze a person in place.

He felt a chill run down his spine, somewhat confused as to what Lin Xuedong was trying to confuse him with, but he still forced himself to continue truthfully: "There's also Miss Lin the Second, and a boy about the same age as the young master."

Outside the window, the night was as thick as ink.

Li Songze walked slowly to his desk, gently crushing the cigarette butt in the ashtray, one stroke after another, producing a dull grating sound.

Countless possibilities flashed through my mind like a jigsaw puzzle, yet they were not difficult to piece together into a complete and reasonable answer.

His eyes were as deep and dark as an ancient pool, as if they held endless whirlpools, unfathomable.

Just as Sudi stood to the side with his head down, secretly wondering to himself...

The man's icy voice was once again squeezed out from between his teeth: "What's the situation with Lin Xuedong?"
