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

She looked up at the clock on the wall again; it was already 11:30.

Li Songze's meddling tonight seems to have lifted my spirits a bit.

She felt quite tired at the moment, so she decided to take a shower first.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuedong escorted Lin Lan home. The nanny heated up some food and soup, inviting him to stay and eat with Lin Lan before going back.

Lin Xuedong was anxious to pick up Liu Sisi, but seeing that he couldn't refuse, he only drank the soup. "Lanlan, stay home and rest for a few more days, don't go out unnecessarily. Call me if you need anything, I'm leaving now."

Seeing his anxious expression, Lin Lan frowned slightly. Her face fell, her expression incredibly complex, and she cautiously asked, "Brother, you haven't eaten much tonight either. Why don't you eat something with me before you leave? It won't take long."

“Yes, sir, please stay and keep Miss company. It’s not easy for her to be home alone.” The nanny chimed in.

Lin Xuedong glanced at Lin Lan, and seeing the anticipation in her eyes, his heart softened instantly.

Thinking about how she went through such terrible things because of me, I really couldn't bear to leave her alone to bear it all, after all, I still felt very guilty towards her.

"Okay." Finally, he nodded and stayed.

"That's wonderful, sir. Please come visit Miss more often when you have time. She'll be very happy." The nanny quickly served him rice; she was also happy for Lin Lan.

"Thank you, brother." Lin Lan smiled knowingly.

Lin Xuedong instinctively reached out and ruffled her hair, smiling gently. "Silly girl."

"Brother, it's late at night, eat some light tofu, it's easy to digest." Lin Lan earnestly scooped a spoonful of green peas, minced meat, and tofu for him.

"Yes, you should eat some too." Lin Xuedong looked at the tofu and thought of Liu Sisi, as it was one of her favorite dishes.

Seeing him quietly eating the tofu, with an undisguised tenderness on his face, Lin Lan assumed he enjoyed being taken care of by her, and a sweet feeling welled up inside her.

"Brother, I'd like to go for a walk to clear my head. Do you have any good suggestions?" She tried to start a conversation.

"Hmm? How long will it take?" Lin Xuedong looked up at her and asked.

"I don't really have any ideas, I just wanted to clear my head. You know I don't have many friends, and Sisi is with you... Sometimes I want to talk to someone about my feelings, but I don't have anyone. Being alone here makes me overthink things. So, I thought I'd go out for a walk." She shrugged, speaking casually, but hearing it made Lin Xuedong feel even more guilty.

He frowned, put down his chopsticks, and stared at Lin Lan with mixed feelings. "Lanlan... I'm sorry."

“Brother, I don’t want to burden you. It’s not your fault. It’s just that I… I’ve never experienced these things before. The feeling is unfamiliar. Although it wasn’t pleasant, I don’t regret it.” Lin Lan smiled bitterly, her eyes slightly red, her aggrieved expression particularly pitiful. “Really, brother. I don’t blame you, and I won’t regret it.”

She repeatedly emphasized that she had no regrets, which made Lin Xuedong's heart tighten.

Seeing the serious look in Lin Lan's eyes, he dared not guess what she was thinking. But it seemed that ever since that night, he had vaguely sensed that Lin Lan's attitude and behavior towards him had changed, even gone astray.

"Lanlan, it would be good if you wanted to go out and relax. I'll hire a professional tour guide to accompany you on a trip around the world, how about that?" He genuinely wanted to make it up to her, and he would try his best to fulfill her wishes as long as he could.

Lin Lan tried hard to hold back her tears, and said in a lighthearted tone, "Traveling around the world is so tiring, and how could I bear to leave you...and all of you?"

"Then let's choose a shorter route: small European countries, Australia, or New Zealand. Those places are rich in culture and have beautiful scenery, perfect for a vacation and relaxation..."

"Brother." Lin Lan interrupted him, her eyes welling up with tears again. She stared intently at Lin Xuedong, her heart filled with mixed emotions. If only the two of them could be together!

"Brother, I don't regret it, but that doesn't mean I can adjust myself in a short time. I'm a girl, I'm vulnerable too, and I can't help but overthink. When I'm lonely, I hope to have someone I can trust by my side."

This is understandable, and he will do his best to meet her needs. "Lanlan, just say what you want to say."

"I... I just want you to spend more time with me, like you did when we were little." She sniffled, wiped away the tears welling in her eyes, and pouted pitifully.

He could see that Lin Lan depended on him. "Okay, I'll try to make time."

"Thank you, brother." Lin Lan had achieved her goal and wouldn't pester him anymore; she knew Lin Xuedong felt guilty towards her.

She had to seize this opportunity and kick Liu Sisi and Zeng Ziyan out of the Pacific Ocean! A barely perceptible, strange emotion flickered in her hazy eyes.

Liu Sisi, feeling refreshed after taking a shower, leaned against the bed.

It's almost midnight, and there's still no word from my phone. Is he going to stay at Lanlan's house for that long?

It doesn't matter. She'll take advantage of this quiet moment to sort out what Zeng Ziyan said to her tonight.

Did he and Zeng Ziyan really do something they shouldn't have done that night in G City?

On the surface, they did indeed engage in intimate acts in bed. However, Lin Xuedong vehemently denied it, but claimed that his love for her was genuine.

She might believe that his heart hadn't betrayed her. But what about his body? Would it succumb to uncontrollable intoxication and promiscuity?

Liu Sisi couldn't bear the thought of him being intimate with other people, let alone the fact that he had cheated on her.

She bent her knees and buried her head between them. Her slender, pale fingers ran through her hair, scratching and fiddling.

What to do? Just like Zeng Ziyan said, today it's her, tomorrow it could be a different woman.

It's common for men to engage in superficial social interactions and play along. My heart aches so much, it's so painful.

So much for self-discipline and integrity! Wasn't it all just a cover-up to protect the company's image?

Isn't that perpetually icy face the same thing?

He kept Ren Anran as a mistress, wasting her youth and innocence. On the surface, he maintained an image of being aloof from women, chaste, and upright.

Liu Sisi grew increasingly agitated. Why were all men like that? Was it really so difficult to remain faithful to one man forever?

So what is she now?

Is she a woman who is legally slept with? How can she tolerate, and cannot tolerate, her husband's infidelity?

At the same time, she was angry at herself for being too soft-hearted. It seemed she could never resist Lin Xuedong's gentle advances, nor could she leave his warm embrace.

So, what should she do?

Should I just go with the flow? Like he said, I should bring him on business trips. Is it to prevent other women from causing trouble?

How could that be? What's the point then?

With his status and position, Zeng Ziyan was not the only one who coveted him; it was impossible to guard against them all!

"Ah! Lin Xuedong, how could you betray me? You said you loved me, that you would protect me, how could you turn around and hug and kiss someone else? Even sleep with them, how could you be such a bastard?! How can I ever trust you again?!" Liu Sisi raised her head and roared at the air in anger. As she shouted, tears streamed down her face.
