The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

When Lu Xinyue got home, she sat on the sofa in melancholy. Her best friend had gotten married, so she should be happier than anyone else. However, she felt like a stone was weighing on her heart. Suddenly, she stood up and walked towards Lu Tianming's room.

She knocked on the door gently and asked politely, "Brother, are you there?" But she got no response. Despite this, she still mustered up the courage to push open the door. A burst of smoke filled the air, choking her and making her cough. Lu Tianming finally came back to his senses from the smoke.

Lu Tianming asked in a dull tone: "Are you back?" Although he didn't say the rest of the words, Lu Xinyue knew in her heart that he just wanted to ask about Mu Ziyan's situation.

"Brother, forget about Yanyan. Maybe she and Tan Yichen got married because they loved each other, not because they were forced!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Tianming stood up from his seat with a resentful look, as if he mistook her for Tan Yichen.

"No, Yanyan will never like him. Never. She was forced because of their family." After saying that, he slowly sat back in his seat, with his face down and scratching his head.

Seeing this, Lu Xinyue felt that there was no need to explain any further. She could only agree with him and said, "Then let time prove it. If Yanyan doesn't love him, they will eventually get divorced. If you don't cheer up, how can you be worthy of her in the future?"

When Lu Tianming heard this, he felt as if he had received a good medicine, and his eyes became softer. He stood up again and slowly walked towards Lu Xinyue.

"Sister, you can see that Yanyan doesn't like him, right?" With a dazed look in his eyes, he wanted to hear the real answer.

Lu Xinyue's helpless expression made Lu Tianming even more manic. He grabbed Lu Xinyue's arm and shook it, trying to make her tell him her true opinion.

Looking at this brother who was crazy about love, how could she bear to hurt him.

Nodding heavily, she replied: "Yes, she doesn't love Tan Yichen."

Lu Tianming was so happy that he felt like he was reborn. He held Lu Xinyue's hand tightly and said excitedly: "I still have a chance, right?" Lu Xinyue nodded in agreement.

As if he had been saved, Lu Tianming straightened his clothes and checked his appearance. His eyes were full of confidence. He said to Lu Xinyue, "I will cheer up and work hard to make our Lu family flourish. I will make Tan Yichen lose to me." After that, he walked out of the house with a strong step.

Lu Xinyue felt extremely tired at the moment. Both sides were her closest people. Now she was in a dilemma, not knowing how to resolve her own confusion, and even less how to make her brother sober and calm to face the reality.

How could she not see it? Tan Yichen's love for Mu Ziyan was deeply engraved in his heart. If it weren't for Tan Yichen's determination to marry her, and Mu Ziyan didn't have Tan Yichen in her heart, how could she reject her brother's confession to her again and again. And she also saw that Mu Ziyan was completely trapped in the whirlpool of the encounter at the seaside. Her heart, at that moment, flowed naturally with this feeling, and no one could stop it. The rejection of her brother at the beginning explained everything, but her brother had not yet recognized the reality. Maybe her brother's love for Mu Ziyan was too deep. I can't bear to give up like this.

Mu Ziyan, who had stayed in the house the entire afternoon, was also worried and sat in the seat by the window.

She was still confused about the unknown future, but she was not frightened by the strange environment. Instead, she felt warmed by the friendly attitude and warm welcome of the people around her, and she was no longer afraid of the future. The appearance of Tan Yichen also made her want to spend the rest of her life with him, and she hoped to build a deep emotional foundation with him in the future.

The sound of a few knocks on the door brought her thoughts back to her senses!

"Come in!" Mu Ziyan stood up and faced Yu Ma who came in.

Her kind eyes and gentle words made Mu Ziyan deeply feel the warmth of a mother.

"Madam, please come downstairs to eat." Yu Ma stood there respectfully.

Mu Ziyan relaxed her brows and nodded with a smile.

"Okay, let's go down together." After saying that, they went downstairs together.

Mu Ziyan was the only one sitting at the long dining table. What surprised her most was that there were more than a dozen delicious dishes in front of her. Faced with such a rich variety of dishes, she was at a loss as to where to start. This scene made Yu Ma behind her laugh.

Yu Ma walked quickly to Mu Ziyan and said softly, "These were specially prepared by the young master. He didn't know what you like to eat, so he made a few more dishes for you to try. If you like, I can make them for you often in the future."

Having never seen Tan Yichen treat someone so attentively, Yu Ma's smiling face could not hide her inner joy. Although she was also spoiled like a princess at home, Tan Yichen's attentiveness warmed her heart even more.

I couldn't help but ask, "Where is he?" I was even shocked myself.

Yu Ma smiled and said: "Something happened at the company, and the young master went out, so you don't have to wait for him. I guess he won't be back early today." After saying that, she shook her head helplessly and walked into the kitchen.

Mu Ziyan turned around and looked at Yu Ma who was about to enter the kitchen, and asked: "Is he often not at home?"

Yu Ma walked over quickly, thinking she had said something wrong. She hurriedly explained: "No, no. The young master is just busy with work."

Mu Ziyan observed Yu Ma's expression and secretly guessed in her heart that he was indeed like what the outside world had said in the past, keeping his distance from women and focusing on work.

Mu Ziyan stood up from her seat, walked towards Yu Ma, took the initiative to reach out and hold her hand, and suggested sincerely: "Yu Ma, just call me Ziyan from now on. In my family, everyone calls me that. I believe this name will make the atmosphere here more harmonious and comfortable." Her big, twinkling eyes revealed an incomparable cuteness, which made Yu Ma immediately take a liking to her.

"Okay, okay!" Yu Ma agreed repeatedly, which made both of them feel relaxed.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the huge villa seemed particularly quiet, which was chilling. The servants had returned to the house next to the villa to rest, and at this moment, only Mu Ziyan was left alone in this empty villa. For her, this experience of being alone at home was the first time. Facing this quiet and deep night, her heart was filled with helplessness and fear.

After taking a shower, she put on a conservative nightgown and went downstairs! She turned on all the lights in the living room, trying to dispel the fear in her heart, curled up on the sofa, and at this time, she was looking forward to Tan Yichen coming back soon. Unconsciously, she fell asleep.

After finishing work, Tan Yichen was eager to go home and see his little wife. Zhang Yang thought to himself, it was because he was driving a car, and those who didn't know would think he was about to take off. This speed was something he had never tried before. Fortunately, his skills were strong. Looking at Tan Yichen sitting steadily through the rearview mirror, he was secretly happy that this day had come! He could actually fall in love with a girl and change himself for her. Although he had not yet met Mrs. Tan, he had already admired her in his heart.

As soon as the car passed the gate, Tan Yichen couldn't wait to get out of the car. His inner anxiety made him trot into the luxurious villa. When he saw Mu Ziyan curled up on the sofa and sleeping soundly, with no one around, he felt deeply remorseful and regretful.

Today should have been the most important day in their lives, but he made her suffer such injustice.

He walked closer to her step by step, the person he had missed for a long time. She closed her eyes tightly, and there seemed to be traces of tears on her cheeks. This scene made him feel extremely painful, and he hated himself for not being able to give her the company and protection she deserved.

He slowly leaned down and tentatively shook her body. Perhaps because she was too tired today, Mu Ziyan did not respond at all. Tan Yichen calmed down, held her in his arms, and walked upstairs!

This was the first time he had such close contact with a woman. Staring at her beautiful face and feeling her soft body, an irresistible desire was rising in his body.

He gently put Mu Ziyan on the bed. He covered her with a soft quilt. He leaned over and looked at her face. She was sleeping comfortably like a baby. Tan Yichen couldn't help but want to kiss her. But how could he forget the oath he had promised that he would never touch her without her permission? He pursed his lips and frowned. Which man could endure such a situation? He had tried so hard to marry her, and now she was right in front of him, but he couldn't have her. This was probably the most uncomfortable thing he had ever encountered in his life!

Tan Yichen closed his eyes slightly, but still insisted on his promise. Just as he was about to leave, Mu Ziyan

Slowly opened my eyes...
