CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings

Finally, it was night, and Lin Xi hurried to the place where they had agreed to meet! The night was like water, and the lights of the city were dazzling. When she came to this place full of delicious food, her stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound! The street lamps on the street emitted a warm light, and the evening breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.

When she walked into the restaurant they had agreed to meet! The restaurant was filled with the aroma of food and a warm atmosphere. As soon as she stepped into the store, she saw Ye Chen standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the restaurant. Today, he was wearing a black Armani suit and a white shirt, looking very handsome. Outside the window, the busy streets and flashing neon lights formed a picture of a bustling city.

"Ye Chen, are you here early?" Lin Xi walked into the restaurant hurriedly in high heels and asked as soon as she saw Ye Chen sitting by the window.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and stood up to greet her, his movements were natural and smooth. He stretched out his hand and gently helped Lin Xi to pull out a chair, saying, "It's not too early, I just arrived not long ago, please take a seat."

Lin Xi nodded slightly, thanked him and took a seat. She frowned and asked impatiently, "What negative news do you think there is about the Xiao family? How can we cancel this engagement?"

Ye Chen calmly said, "Don't worry, we have plenty of time to discuss countermeasures." As he said that, he elegantly picked up the red wine bottle on the table and slowly filled a glass of red wine for Lin Xi. Then, Ye Chen made a gesture and said softly, "Eat something to fill your stomach first, and we will talk while eating." As soon as he finished speaking, a well-trained waiter walked up quickly and respectfully handed the menu to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi took the menu and quickly scanned the densely packed food on it. After thinking for a moment, she casually ordered a few of her favorite dishes: "One crispy chicken steak, another spicy pork elbow, oh, and a dish of stir-fried beef with garlic." After ordering, Lin Xi handed the menu to Ye Chen and asked with a smile: "Ye Chen, what do you want to eat?"

Ye Chen raised his lips and replied gently, "Just give me a steak." Then, he handed the menu back to the waiter and nodded to him to serve the food as soon as possible. After the waiter left, Ye Chen turned his head to look at Lin Xi and said seriously, "Regarding the matter of breaking off the engagement, I still want to hear your thoughts and opinions first."

Lin Xi took a sip of red wine, frowned slightly and thought for a while, then slowly said: "I really don't want to have too much entanglement with Xiao Di Yu. This engagement was not what I wanted from the beginning."

"I understand how you feel," Ye Chen nodded solemnly, his eyes as firm as the brightest stars in the night sky, "We will definitely find a way to solve the problem. But before that, you must make sure to prepare for all possible situations."

"You mentioned news about the Xiao family just now. What is the specific situation?" Lin Xi asked impatiently.

Ye Chen subconsciously lowered his voice, leaned forward slightly closer to Lin Xi, and whispered mysteriously: "After a period of secret observation and investigation, I found that Xiao Diyu seems to be hiding some unknown and shameful secrets. And these secrets are very likely to become the key breakthrough point for us to successfully cancel the engagement."

"What kind of secret is it?" Lin Xi widened her eyes and looked at Ye Chen with curiosity and expectation.

Ye Chen slowly picked up the wine glass in front of him, gently swirled the liquid in the glass, and fell into a brief contemplation. After a while, he raised his head and answered seriously: "The specific details are not clear at the moment, and further in-depth and detailed investigation and evidence collection are needed. However, what is certain is that this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. Xiao Diyu is not a pushover. He will never give up easily and let go."

Hearing this, Lin Xi couldn't help but frown and complained with a worried look on her face: "Yeah, you don't know, this guy is just haunting me! Almost every day he shamelessly blocks my door, which makes me very annoyed. He is almost driving me crazy!"

"Don't be afraid?" Ye Chen quickly reached out and gently patted the back of Lin Xi's hand, and whispered to comfort her, "Don't worry, I'm here to protect you and ensure your personal safety. The most urgent task now is to figure out how to find his fatal weakness and force him to give up this engagement on his own initiative."

Hearing this, Lin Xi felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She couldn't help but hold Ye Chen's hand tightly with her backhand, staring into his eyes affectionately, and whispered softly: "Ye Chen, if the person who can finally walk into the marriage hall with me is you, how wonderful it would be..."

After hearing this, Ye Chen's body trembled slightly, as if he was struck by lightning and lost consciousness for a short time. However, just a moment later, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, outlining a warm and gentle smile like the warm spring sun. That smile was like the first ray of sunshine in the morning penetrating the mist, instantly dispelling the haze around.

"The most crucial issue now is how to help you get rid of this tough trouble!" Ye Chen's voice was low and firm, like a steady and powerful drumbeat, beating Lin Xi's panicked heart.

At this moment, a waiter in a neat uniform and with a smile on his face came lightly, holding a tray in his hand, on which were placed a series of delicious dishes. The first thing that caught the eye was the crispy chicken steak, with a golden and crispy skin shining with an attractive luster and exuding a mouth-watering aroma; followed by the spicy pork elbow, which was as red as a gem, shiny and shiny, and had a rich aroma; and the fried beef with garlic, the tender beef and the spicy garlic blended perfectly, and every bite was intoxicating; and finally, the exquisite steak in front of Ye Chen, which was cooked to the right temperature, the meat was tender and juicy, and paired with a unique sauce, it was even more delicious.

Lin Xi, who was originally full of worries, could not help but be attracted by the sumptuous food on the table. She temporarily put aside the worries brought by the engagement, and could not wait to pick up the knife and fork, carefully cut a small piece of crispy chicken steak and put it into her mouth. Suddenly, the crispy texture and the rich chicken aroma bloomed on the tip of her tongue, making her unable to help but let out a satisfied exclamation: "The taste is so wonderful!"

Ye Chen sat opposite, quietly gazing at Lin Xi enjoying the food, his eyes showing endless doting. He said softly, "Eat slowly, don't rush, be careful not to choke. As for the cancellation of the engagement, we can deal with it step by step."

After the two of them finished the delicious meal, Lin Xi and Ye Chen did not get up and leave immediately, but sat down to discuss the follow-up action plan. After careful consideration, they finally decided to continue to investigate the secrets behind Xiao Di Yu, and on the other hand, make full preparations in advance to deal with various complex situations that may arise.

When they finally left the restaurant, it was already nightfall and the lights were on. The evening breeze blew through Lin Xi's hair, bringing a slight chill. But at this moment, she felt much more relaxed than when she came. Because she knew that although the road to canceling the engagement might be long and tortuous, as long as Ye Chen was by her side, giving her support and encouragement, she would have enough courage to face all the difficulties and obstacles.

Since Ye Ziyuan and Lu Yuchi completed the divorce procedures, her life seemed to have lost its color and vitality, and she spent every day like a walking corpse. The woman who was once full of sunshine and a bright smile disappeared, replaced by a woman with empty eyes and a haggard face.

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shines through the window into the room, Ye Ziyuan lies unconsciously on the bed, unwilling to get up and face the new day. She stares blankly at the ceiling, recalling every bit of her time with Lu Yuchi. Those beautiful times have now become a sharp blade that hurts her heart.

During the day, she wandered aimlessly on the street, watching the people coming and going, and she felt an inexplicable sense of loneliness in her heart. Sometimes, she would walk into a coffee shop, find a corner to sit down, order a cup of coffee, and then sit in a daze for the whole day. When she returned home at night, facing the empty house, she felt extremely lonely and scared. Without Lu Yuchi's company, the house became extremely deserted, and even the air was filled with sadness.

Ye Ziyuan tried to fill the emptiness in her heart in various ways, but watching TV, listening to music or reading could not relieve her from the pain. She often cried alone in the middle of the night, her tears soaking the pillow, and her longing for Lu Yuchi also surged into her heart like a tide, making it difficult for her to fall asleep. In this way, day after day, Ye Ziyuan's life became more and more withered, like a flower that has lost nutrients and gradually withered.

"Sister, why are you sleeping on the sofa?" Ye Chen asked with concern. He had just finished his busy work and had not seen his beloved sister for a long time. This time he went to the market to buy some fresh vegetables and delicious meat, and came to visit his sister Ye Ziyuan with joy. However, the moment he stepped into his sister's house, he was stunned by the scene in front of him - the room was in a mess, with clothes and sundries scattered randomly.

"Brother, why are you here?" Ye Ziyuan slowly stood up from the sofa after hearing the voice. Perhaps because she had been lying down for too long, her body was a little stiff. As soon as she stood up, she accidentally knocked over a wine bottle next to her. The wine bottle shook a few times and almost fell to the ground. As a result, she was unstable and almost fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you? How did you get yourself into this state?" Ye Chen walked quickly to his sister, supported her staggering body, frowned, and looked at his sister's haggard face with worry.
