After rebirth, the paranoid boss dotes on her

night.

After dinner, Xiang Wanqiao sat on the hospital bed with her legs curled up, staring out the window in a daze.

Thinking back to what happened in her previous life, she couldn't help but feel sad.

The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.

The pain of suffocation.

Xiang Wanqiao closed her red eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed herself.

After a while, she opened her eyes again, and the sadness in her eyes had faded away by half.

The night was lonely and she suddenly missed Gu Jingzhan very much.

In his previous life, he knew clearly that she was pretending to be obedient, but he did not take precautions and was willing to join in the game just to make her wish come true.

"Gu Jingzhan, what's so good about me that makes you so desperate and risk everything."

Xiang Wanqiao picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table and opened Gu Jingzhan's communication page, but her fingertips suddenly stopped in front of the screen.

After some hesitation, she dialed the number.

The phone rang for a long time before someone answered it, but the voice on the other end was not Gu Jingzhan's.

"Mr. Zhan is busy, what can I do for you, Madam?"

Xiang Yuan's voice sounded without any emotion, as if he was doing his job impartially.

Xiang Wanqiao was slightly startled, her bloodless lips moved, and she whispered, "Gu Jingzhan... is he still working so late?"

Xiang Yuan mechanically replied: "Yes."

"Can you let him answer the phone? I...I have something to say to him."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhan is not available to answer the phone at the moment. Madam, if you don't have anything important to do, please hang up first."

Xiang Wanqiao pinched her fingers, said nothing in the end, and hung up the phone silently.

瑰园

The study was a mess.

Gu Jingzhan sat in the office chair with a gloomy face. His hands on the armrests kept shaking, and blood was dripping from his fingertips.

He exuded a murderous aura, and his dark eyes were bottomless, containing extremely dangerous signals, like a bloodthirsty beast.

"Master Zhan, Madam has hung up the phone."

Gu Jingzhan did not respond.

Xiang Yuan saw that his hand was bleeding, and a look of worry appeared on his face. "Master Zhan, your hand is injured. I will call someone to help you treat the wound."

"Can't die."

Gu Jingzhan slowly clenched his hands into fists and spoke coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Qingzhou opened the door and walked in, holding a medicine box in his hand.

"Why did you make yourself like this for that woman Xiang Wanqiao? You can't live without her."

Xiang Yuan stepped aside, bowed, and respectfully called Lu Qingzhou, "Master Lu."

Lu Qingzhou nodded slightly and waved his hand, saying, "You go out first, I'm here."

"Yes."

Then Xiang Yuan left the study.

Zhan Jiu, who had been waiting at the door of the study, saw Xiang Yuan coming out and immediately went over to him and asked with concern, "How is Mr. Zhan?"

Xiang Yuan replied calmly: "It's nothing serious, I just hurt my hand."

"I'll go in and take a look."

When Zhan Jiu heard that Gu Jingzhan was injured, he rushed to the study room eagerly.

Xiang Yuan stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't go, Master Zhan is in a bad mood right now, and Master Lu is in there, so he will be fine."

Zhan Jiu closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down.

But the more he thought about it, the more he felt sorry for Gu Jingzhan. Unable to swallow this, he turned around and rushed downstairs.

Xiang Yuan seemed to have guessed what he was going to do. He quickly grabbed his arm and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to kill that woman Xiang Wanqiao!"

Xiang Yuan pulled him back and growled, "You're going to kill her? Have you thought about the consequences?"

Zhan Jiu looked at him, the anger in his eyes still there.

Xiang Yuan was afraid that he would not remain calm and might do something out of line under impulse, so he threatened him in a deep voice.

"If you dare to go, I will go in and tell Master Zhan right away, and you will never be able to stay by Master Zhan's side again."

Zhan Jiu was silent for a moment, shook off his hand, and moved a few steps to the side with a stern face.

Xiang Yuan said: "I can tell you very clearly that if Xiang Wanqiao dies, not only will Master Zhan not live a good life, but his life will be even worse than it is now."

Zhan Jiu kicked the corner of the wall angrily.

"I really don't understand what's so good about that woman. She's simply a disaster. Mr. Zhan hasn't had a single peaceful day since he married her."

Xiang Yuan was very calm, and even analyzed the situation for him, while also giving him some warnings.

"No matter what Xiang Wanqiao is like, as long as Master Zhan doesn't divorce her, she is Master Zhan's legitimate wife, and we, his subordinates, are not allowed to say anything about her."

Zhan Jiu said angrily: "I just feel it's not worth it for Master Zhan!"

Zhan has been with Gu Jingzhan since he was 98 years old, going through life and death together. He is indeed very capable and is also Gu Jingzhan's most trusted subordinate.

But at the same time, he has a stubborn personality and likes to stick to his own opinions. He never allows anyone to betray Gu Jingzhan, let alone hurt Gu Jingzhan.

Even if this person is Gu Jingzhan’s favorite.

Xiang Yuan walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "Calm down, don't be so impulsive all the time."

"Brother Xiang..."

"Well, Master Zhan didn't say anything, what can we do?"

Zhan Jiu moved his lips and wanted to say something.

Xiang Yuan put his arm around his shoulders and pulled him away, "Come on, I'll take you back."

"..."

Zhan Jiu sighed lightly, and finally followed Xiang Yuan.

In the study room.

Lu Qingzhou walked to the sofa in Gu Jingzhan's study with a medical kit, raised his chin slightly, and said, "Come here, I'll treat your wound."

Gu Jingzhan sat there motionless, as if he didn't hear him.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a while.

"Yes, you are the boss."

Lu Qingzhou had no choice but to compromise and walked towards Gu Jingzhan carrying the medicine box.

"I really don't understand what's so good about Xiang Wanqiao. Would you hurt yourself like this for her?"

Lu Qingzhou squatted down and helped Gu Jingzhan treat the wound on his hand, feeling sorry for him.

"She doesn't even have you in her heart, so why do you force her to stay by your side? Not only will you make her hate you more, but you will also torture yourself."

Gu Jingzhan remained silent and expressionless.

Even though the alcohol was causing him excruciating pain, he showed no reaction.

Lu Qingzhou raised his eyes to look at him, shook his head and sighed, "If you ask me, you should divorce Xiang Wanqiao as soon as possible, so that she and Xiao Xuan'an won't always have any evil ideas about you."

"I know what's going on in my own business." Gu Jingzhan said in a cold voice.

Lu Qingzhou put gauze on his wound and then pressed it hard deliberately, trying to use the pain to clear his mind.

"Yes, you are very sensible in everything you do, but when it comes to Xiang Wanqiao, you are completely irrational."

Gu Jingzhan closed his eyes, his tone revealing a bit of displeasure: "Why do you talk so much nonsense?"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore."

Lu Qingzhou knew that Gu Jingzhan was in a bad mood, so he didn't say anything more.

He stood up with the medical kit and said before leaving, "Remember not to let your wound get wet. Come to my place tomorrow morning to change the dressing."

Gu Jingzhan ignored him.

After Lu Qingzhou left the study, Gu Jingzhan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were terribly dark.

why?

Why shatter his last bit of unrealistic fantasy so quickly?

Why couldn't you lie to him a little longer?
