The CEO is domineering, the devil Boss is addicted to pampering

Gu Yunqian went home less and less often. In the huge villa, Su Xingya was often alone, and the nights became particularly long and quiet.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, her thoughts would run wild like a wild horse running free from its reins in the wilderness of contradictions and struggles.

The moonlight shone through the gaps in the curtains, sprinkling on her face in patches, reflecting a sense of coldness and loneliness.

She recalled the sweet times she had with Gu Yunqian, the warm hugs and affectionate eyes, as if they were still vivid in her mind.

However, the two of them now seem like a middle-aged couple who have been married for many years, and their passion has long been exhausted over the years.

Every time, when she mustered up the courage and tried to get close to Gu Yunqian, wanting to regain the love she once had, she was always met with cold words and perfunctory attitude from him.

Those sweet and gentle words were like sharp knives, ruthlessly cutting her heart and making her feel immense pain and despair.

However, whenever she wanted to think deeply about this problem and wanted to find out the root cause of the changes in their relationship, a voice in her heart would ring, telling her how passionately and deeply they had loved each other.

This voice was like a warm force, trying to heal her pain and make her believe that love still exists.

These two conflicting emotions intertwined together, like a war without the smoke of gunpowder, fiercely clashing deep in her heart.

She was sometimes firm, sometimes wavering, sometimes full of hope, and sometimes in despair.

This internal friction tortured her spirit and she felt as if she would collapse at any time.

The huge villa is now empty, without the laughter and warmth of the past.

She felt like a canary kept in a golden cage by Gu Yunqian. Although she was satisfied materially, she was extremely empty and depressed spiritually.

She wanted to break free from this cage, but she was powerless...

She thought of the heroines in those melodramatic novels, who were always teased by fate and unable to change their current situation.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling like the characters in those novels, trapped in a relationship with no future, unable to extricate herself.

Qi Ruixiang sat in the corner of the private room, his eyes quietly fixed on Gu Yunqian, watching him drink one glass after another, with a hint of confusion on his face.

The lighting in the private room was dim and blurry, creating an ambiguous and depressing atmosphere, which seemed to coincide with Gu Yunqian's mood at the moment.

He was a little confused about what Gu Yunqian was doing now.

Since you have found a substitute who is so similar to the person in the past, why not go with the flow and live a good life?

It doesn't necessarily mean that he suddenly woke up, or that he was looking for some feeling of loss?

Of course he knew about the existence of Su Xingya and her background.

To some extent, it is not a bad idea that Wanwan is similar to you.

But if you find a substitute and still pretend to be affectionate, it would be too hypocritical...

The music in the private room was playing one after another, but Qi Ruixiang seemed to be in another world.

His eyes were always fixed on Gu Yunqian, trying to catch a clue from every subtle movement of the other party to solve the doubts in his heart.

However, Gu Yunqian seemed to be immersed in his own world, oblivious to everything around him. He continued to drink one glass after another, and the expression on his face became heavier and heavier, as if he was carrying a heavy burden.

Qi Ruixiang looked at this scene and couldn't help feeling an inexplicable irritation and powerlessness.

Qi Ruixiang took great pains to drag the unconscious Gu Yunqian back to the car.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his breathing, and then set the navigation destination to the villa halfway up the mountain.

Along the way, the image of that "stand-in" kept appearing in Qi Ruixiang's mind.

He was curious, he was speculating, and he even had some expectations.

After all, this woman played such a special role in Gu Yunqian's life that made him both entangled and difficult to let go.

When the car slowly stopped at the door of the villa, Qi Ruixiang grabbed the heavy arm that Gu Yunqian placed on his shoulder with one hand, and put the other hand on the other's waist. The two stood side by side, waiting for a response from inside the door.

At that moment, his heartbeat accelerated, as if a major secret was about to be revealed.

Finally, the door slowly opened and a figure came into view.

Qi Ruixiang's eyes suddenly became complicated. He thought that the woman in front of him would look like the person in his memory, but unexpectedly, she was not the same as that person!

Although they may be similar in some aspects, Su Xingya's unique temperament and appearance make her a new and independent individual.

Qi Ruixiang coughed lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment.

He carefully handed the drunk Gu Yunqian to Su Xingya, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Before the door was completely closed, Qi Ruixiang saw with his own eyes Su Xingya struggling to help Gu Yunqian into the house.

After standing at the door for a long time, Qi Ruixiang slowly returned to the car.

Su Xingya's appearance and temperament kept echoing in his mind, and his expression was subtle.

He began to think that perhaps the reason why Gu Yunqian was so conflicted was because Su Xingya was both a shadow of his past and a brand new beginning.

Su Xingya exerted all her strength to steady Gu Yunqian's heavy body and slowly placed him on the bed.

But unexpectedly, as soon as she let go, she lost her balance and fell forward, with her chest pressed tightly against Gu Yunqian's slightly warm skin.

The smell of alcohol and sweat mixed together hit her nose, which was not very pleasant, but Su Xingya did not rush to get up.

She lay on Gu Yunqian, listening to his strong heartbeat and heavy breathing, with mixed feelings in her heart.

During this period of time, Gu Yunqian was always like this, either not coming back all night, or coming back drunk and unconscious.

The image of life becoming like a stagnant pool of water after being together for a long time suddenly became concrete at this moment.

But whenever I see him like this, I can't help but feel ripples in my heart.

She slowly raised her head and stared at Gu Yunqian's profile in the warm light from the bedside.

That face with clear outlines had made her heart beat so many times before, but now it looked a little more vicissitudes and tired. She gently smelled the alcohol he sprayed, and her brows unconsciously knitted together.

She didn't understand why the man who once promised to give her a stable life had become like this?

Su Xingya silently imagined a big drama in her mind, imagining Gu Yunqian's life of feasting and revelry outside, and imagining how he betrayed their love and vows.

But these imaginations came and went quickly, because she knew that these were just guesses and fantasies in her mind and there was no substantial evidence.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Compared to the images in my mind, what is more important now is to take good care of this drunk man.

She gently moved away from Gu Yunqian's body and turned to get a clean towel.

But at the moment she turned around, she suddenly felt a strong force on her wrist.

Su Xingya's heart trembled suddenly, and she turned around to look at the unconscious man on the bed.

His lips moved slightly and he murmured her name: "Xingya... Xingya..." Although the voice was weak and vague, it was like a warm current that instantly flowed into Su Xingya's heart.

Su Xingya was stunned, and stood there motionless, with a complex emotion in her heart...
