After the divorce, the CEO's ex-wife deeply regretted her actions.

Liu Tianxiong stared in utter terror at the corpse of the man in black.

A gurgling sound came from his throat, but he couldn't utter a word.

His lips trembled, like a dying fish opening and closing its mouth in despair.

At that moment, a figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

"Who? Who's there?" Liu Tianxiong shouted in terror.

Chen Yun held a blood-dripping dagger in his hand; blood was still dripping from the tip.

In the dim light, it looked particularly ferocious and terrifying.

He approached Liu Tianxiong step by step, his face expressionless.

Liu Tianxiong was stunned. He never imagined that the person who had been lurking in the ward was actually...

"Chen Yun? It's you?"

Liu Tianxiong stared wide-eyed, asking incredulously.

Chen Yun sneered, "What? Surprised?"

Liu Tianxiong then remembered that the man who had been lurking around the trash can earlier seemed to resemble Chen Yun somewhat.

Could it be... that he orchestrated all of this?

"You...what exactly do you want to do?"

Liu Tianxiong's voice trembled violently; he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Chen Yun ignored Liu Tianxiong's question, walked to Wang Yuyan's side, and helped her up.

"Yu Yan, are you alright?" Chen Yun asked gently.

Wang Yuyan shook her head; her mind was completely blank, and she had no idea what had happened.

Chen Yun briefly explained what had happened, and then left the hospital with Wang Yuyan.

Liu Tianxiong was tied up and thrown into the back seat of a dilapidated van by Chen Yun.

Its mouth was also sealed with tape, so it could only make muffled sounds.

He looked at Chen Yun and Wang Yuyan in horror, his heart filled with fear and despair.

The van bumped along the way and finally stopped in an abandoned warehouse.

Chen Yun dragged Liu Tianxiong off the car, threw him on the ground, and then untied the ropes binding him.

Liu Tianxiong rubbed his wrists, which were numb from being tied up, and looked at Chen Yun warily: "You... what exactly do you want to do?"

Chen Yun lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled a smoke ring: "Liu Tianxiong, you've got some nerve, daring to touch my woman."

Liu Tianxiong's expression changed, and he quickly said, "Chen Yun, let me explain, this is all a misunderstanding, I..."

"Misunderstanding?" Chen Yun interrupted him.

"You fucking messed up my woman like this, and you still say it's a misunderstanding?"

Chen Yun kicked Liu Tianxiong in the stomach, and Liu Tianxiong immediately curled up on the ground in pain, groaning incessantly.

Wang Yuyan watched from the side, feeling both scared and worried.

She didn't understand what Chen Yun was trying to do, but she knew that Chen Yun would definitely not let Liu Tianxiong go.

Chen Yun squatted down, grabbed Liu Tianxiong's hair, and forced him to raise his head: "Tell me, do you have any accomplices?"

Liu Tianxiong gritted his teeth and refused to confess.

Chen Yun sneered: "Looks like you're going to have to suffer the consequences instead of accepting a polite offer."

Chen Yun picked up a rusty pair of pliers and waved it in front of Liu Tianxiong:

"Do you know what this is? This thing can snap your fingers, one by one, until you open your mouth."

Liu Tianxiong trembled with fear as he stared at the menacing iron pincers.

It felt like my fingers had been pinched off.

"I'll talk, I'll talk..." Liu Tianxiong finally broke down, his voice trembling as he spoke.

"I have an accomplice named... Li Qiang."

Chen Yun continued, "Who is Li Qiang? Where is he?"

Liu Tianxiong dared not hide anything and confessed Li Qiang's identity and whereabouts in detail.

After obtaining the information he wanted, Chen Yun stood up and walked to Wang Yuyan's side: "Yuyan, let's go."

Wang Yuyan nodded and followed Chen Yun out of the warehouse.

Liu Tianxiong slumped to the ground, utterly powerless; he knew he was finished.

Chen Yun drove Wang Yuyan to a hotel.

Wang Yuyan looked at the luxurious hotel in front of her: "What are we doing here?"

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Of course, it's to calm you down."

Chen Yun booked a room and told Wang Yuyan to take a shower first.

When Wang Yuyan came out of the shower, she saw Chen Yun sitting on the sofa smoking.

“Chen Yun…” Wang Yuyan walked to Chen Yun’s side and called softly.

Chen Yun looked up at Wang Yuyan, his eyes filled with tenderness: "What's wrong?"

"You...you really want to kill Liu Tianxiong?" Wang Yuyan asked.

Chen Yun was silent for a moment, then said, "He deserves to die."

Wang Yuyan wanted to say something, but Chen Yun interrupted her: "Alright, don't think about it so much, get some rest."

Chen Yun held Wang Yuyan in his arms and gently patted her back.

Wang Yuyan nestled in Chen Yun's arms, feeling his warm embrace, and her heart gradually calmed down.

She knew that Chen Yun was doing it for her own good, and she shouldn't ask so many questions anymore.

The next morning, Chen Yun woke up to find that Wang Yuyan was no longer in the room.

He went into the bathroom and saw Wang Yuyan putting on makeup in front of the mirror.

"Yu Yan, you're awake." Chen Yun walked up behind Wang Yu Yan and hugged her from behind.

Wang Yuyan turned around, looked at Chen Yun, and smiled: "Mm."

Chen Yun's fingers gently caressed Wang Yuyan's back, feeling the smoothness and warmth of her skin.

The shock of last night still seemed to linger in her mind.

She curled up in his arms like a frightened kitten.

"It's okay, it's all over."

Chen Yun whispered in her ear, his voice slightly hoarse.

Wang Yuyan softly hummed in agreement and buried her face in his chest.

The two embraced quietly for a while until Wang Yuyan's emotions gradually calmed down.

"Let's go have breakfast," Chen Yun said softly.

Wang Yuyan nodded and got up from his embrace.

After washing up, the two went to the hotel restaurant.

Chen Yun ordered several breakfast items that Wang Yuyan liked, and then looked at her.

"Yu Yan," Chen Yun said.

"There are some things I think I should tell you."

Wang Yuyan put down her knife and fork and looked at him: "What is it?"

Chen Yun took a deep breath and began to recount his past.

He began by recounting his difficult childhood experiences, explaining how he gradually got to where he is today.

How to survive in this treacherous world.

He even mentioned some of the mistakes he had made and those dark, unbearable memories.

Wang Yuyan listened quietly. She had never imagined that Chen Yun's past was so complicated.

She always thought he was just an ordinary businessman, but she never expected that he carried such a heavy past.

"So, about this matter..." Wang Yuyan asked hesitantly.

“That’s right.” Chen Yun nodded.

“Liu Tianxiong is one of my rivals, and he has always wanted to bring me down. This whole thing was orchestrated by him.”

Wang Yuyan held Chen Yun's hand: "I understand you, I support you."

Chen Yun grasped her hand in return, a warm feeling welling up inside him.

No matter what happens, Wang Yuyan will stand by his side.
