The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

"Tan Yichen, faced with many choices in love, why did you choose to marry me for the sake of profit? Is your love for me meant to constrain me in this way, preventing me from freely pursuing my own happiness? Do you think that only by taking by force can you demonstrate your ability and determination?

This series of questions and accusations, like a sharp sword, pierced Tan Yichen's heart. He felt not only anger, but also the misalignment and conflict of their mutual understanding of each other's emotions. He understood that Mu Ziyan's words revealed her desire for happiness and doubts about love, and such words did touch his emotional defenses.

On a moonlit night, Tan Yichen raised his head proudly. The incredulity on his face vaguely revealed the disappointment in his heart. This expression was like stars streaking across the night sky, full of shock and deep pain. Then, he turned around abruptly and stepped out of the room resolutely. Then came the sound of the door closing violently. This sound suddenly sounded like a thunder, which not only broke the tranquility of the outside world in an instant, but also deeply shocked Mu Ziyan, who had just been angry.

When she came back to her senses from the sudden noise, she suddenly realized that her words just now were like a sharp blade, ruthlessly piercing into Tan Yichen's heart.

The door slammed shut in her heart, and she was filled with regret and self-blame for what she had just said. She began to reflect on her own behavior, and those sharp words echoed in her heart again and again. At this moment, she was filled with fear. What she didn't understand was that the two of them clearly had each other in their hearts, so why did they hurt each other every time they spoke. Looking back at the place where the two of them had been so affectionate just now, tears could not stop flowing down her cheeks.

Tan Yichen stood in front of the painting, immersed in endless thoughts. His eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of mist, making it difficult for him to see the picture in front of him. He gently stroked his cheek, and a trace of moisture passed through his fingers.

He... shed tears!

The hardships he had gone through in the past, like wind and rain, had never made him succumb. However, the current emotional entanglements were like sharp arrows that hit the vital points of his heart, causing him to feel even more pain and unable to extricate himself. Every time he was touched, it was like a direct blow to the softest part of his heart, causing him to feel frustrated and hurt.

At dawn the next day, a telephone rang in the quiet air. Tan Yichen, who was still asleep, picked up the phone without hesitation without even glancing at the caller ID.

On the other end of the phone, Yaqi's voice was a little complaining: "Brother, why haven't you come to accompany me these days? Dad heard that you are not good to me, but he will come to find you!" Her words instantly broke through Tan Yichen's hazy sleepiness and made him completely awake.

Just as he went downstairs, he saw Mu Ziyan eating breakfast. Hearing the sound of someone coming downstairs, Mu Ziyan also looked towards him! The eyes of the two people in the air only met for a moment, and then they quickly dodged!

Yu Ma came out of the kitchen and asked hurriedly, "Master, let's eat!"

He walked out in a hurry, saying something like "something happened!"

Mu Ziyan didn't look up, her heart was filled with disappointment. She had no idea what to do about the stiff relationship between the two of them, she could only blame herself for being too stupid! She thought to herself!

Throwing himself into work. But the fact that he had something on his mind did not escape the eyes of Lu Xinyue and Yi Haotian...

Xinyue saw the clue and still asked whether there was a conflict with Tan Yichen, and whether it was because of what she said that day.

Mu Ziyan smiled with a little effort on her face, then shook her head to deny it. Her words were concise but every word was weighty: "The situation is much more serious than this." Lu Xinyue was shocked when she heard that. After shrugged her shoulders slightly, she quietly returned to her job and concentrated on the task at hand.

She has always been sensible and knows the importance of things, and knows the boundaries between people. As for the private affairs between the couple, she knows very well that as long as Mu Ziyan does not take the initiative to open up her heart, she will not interfere and ask more questions.

Yi Haotian stared out the window, observing everything that had just happened through the bright window. Curiosity drove him to take action. With a firm heart, he resolutely decided to drive to investigate, and his destination was directly Tan Yichen's company.

In the office, Tan Yichen was fully engaged in his work, focused and persistent. Yaqi sat elegantly on the blue leather sofa, sipping the fragrant coffee and leisurely flipping through the pages of a book. To others, Yaqi seemed to be sitting here as a hostess, waiting for her husband to get off work.

At some point, Yaqi would unconsciously look up and gaze at Tan Yichen's focused work. Under his handsome appearance, he exuded a mature and steady demeanor, which deeply attracted Yaqi and made her fall in love with him. At that moment, she was intoxicated by this beauty, as if time had frozen at this moment, leaving only the tacit understanding and harmony between the two of them.

Yi Haotian barged in without knocking! Tan Yichen and Yaqian looked up at the door at the same time. When they saw who was coming, time seemed to stand still. The three of them were shocked!

"Why are you here?" Tan Yichen stood up and prepared to greet Yi Haotian.

"Why are you here?" Yi Haotian also asked Yaqi at the same time!

Yaqi was even more angry and replied: "Why can't I come!"

Seeing that the two were about to "quarrel" again, Tan Yichen quickly asked Yi Haotian to sit on the sofa on the other side!

After the three of them were seated, Tan Yichen still curiously asked Yi Haotian what mattered that required him to visit in person!

Yi Haotian glanced at Yaqi, then looked at Tan Yichen, circling his fingers between the two of them, and asked Tan Yichen: "Can I ask directly? But about Mu Ziyan..."

When he mentioned his little wife and thought about what happened last night, Tan Yichen stood up, returned to his desk, and immediately ordered her to leave: "No one needs to be overly concerned about what happens between me and her! Just go back and take care of your company."

Yi Haotian curled his lips, seeing the clue, and stood up and walked to Tan Yichen's desk, spreading his hands and said: "I am concerned about my employees. What if she doesn't work well and affects the benefits of my company?"

Tan Yichen replied calmly: "Then let her resign and go home. I can afford it!"

"You..." Yi Haotian was holding back his anger at Tan Yichen's rude words! He turned around and looked at Yaqi, whose face had changed drastically, and couldn't help but smile evilly. He said nothing more. He just waved his hand and left!

With the sound of the door closing gently, Tan Yichen paused with his pen, and he leaned back in his chair, his face revealing an indescribable fatigue. Yaqi quickly stood up and was about to speak, but Tan Yichen said first: "Yaqi, you should go back to the hotel first. I can't accompany you today, you'd better go back to take care of Master." She immediately understood in her heart that he had noticed that she had accidentally disturbed his affairs.

During this trip, Yaqi's inner longing was like a spring, and only meeting Mu Ziyan was her ultimate hope. However, Tan Yichen protected her tightly with meticulous care, fearing that she would be hurt in the slightest. Faced with his alienation, Yaqi couldn't help but feel resentful, picked up the bag at hand, and angrily slammed the door and left.

Tan Yichen was already used to Yaqi's willfulness. He gently rubbed his tired eyes, leaned back on the chair again, and closed his eyes to rest. His thoughts unconsciously drifted back to last night, and that memory pierced his heart like a needle. Tan Yichen understood that Mu Ziyan was not in a good state in the company today, which was why Yi Haotian came in person.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a trace of worry flashed between Tan Yichen's brows, and his eyes unconsciously looked out the window.

His heart, like a cloud blown by the wind, missed her figure all the time. The deep concern in his heart was like a violent storm that could not be suppressed, and it surged in his heart more and more. Tan Yichen had laughed at himself many times for his obsession with this emotion. At this moment, his concern for her became even deeper.

Thinking back to the quick glance in the morning, I had actually seen her condition clearly. Her sunken cheeks and red eyes must have been left by her crying countless times last night. So what if I was heartbroken! This time, Tan Yichen didn't want to give in. He didn't want to...
