The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life
Episode 53: Containment
Xing Feng calmly called Uncle Yan and told him about Tan Yichen's situation without reservation. After hanging up the phone, Uncle Yan couldn't suppress his emotions and burst into tears. He was deeply trapped in a vortex of guilt and self-blame, and his heart was full of pain. He understood that the reason why Tan Yichen was in a life-and-death situation was that he deliberately revealed the news that Mu Ziyan took the luggage back to the Mu family, which distracted Tan Yichen from doing things.
In the huge office, Tan Yichen's figure and aura have disappeared, making people feel a little lonely and lost. At this moment, he seems to have completely withdrawn from this space, leaving behind an indescribable sense of emptiness. Such a change makes people start to wonder whether this place still retains the vitality and liveliness that Tan Yichen had when he was here.
He chose this time to cut off all ties, hoping to use this opportunity to make any influence Mu Ziyan had on Tan Yichen disappear. He knew very well that long-term observation had made him see clearly Tan Yichen's current situation - he was completely intoxicated by the sweet days with Mu Ziyan, so much so that he had forgotten the important task of revenge. In this regard, he was determined not to let Tan Yichen's addiction continue to affect his plan, nor did he want Mu Ziyan's existence to interfere with him in any way.
Unexpectedly, today's tragedy was caused by his own choice. Uncle Yan felt deeply painful at the moment, as if he was hit by a heavy hammer. He pondered over and over again, and after careful consideration, he decided to take decisive action. In the end, he chose to confide this to Mu Yunting, hoping that he could persuade Mu Ziyan to go home. Now the only way to ease Uncle Yan's hidden pain is to let her return home!
In the first rays of sunshine in the morning, Mu Yunting was about to step out of the house, but he unexpectedly received a call from Uncle Yan. As the content of the call gradually unfolded, his expression gradually changed from initial surprise to deep shock. He immediately rushed to the bedroom on the second floor at lightning speed.
Chen Anqi was surprised when she saw this. She looked at his nervous expression and couldn't help wondering. She quickly approached Mu Yunting and asked what happened. Mu Yunting did not hold back and repeated everything that Uncle Yan said on the phone to Chen Anqi. As soon as the words fell, even Chen Anqi, who was usually calm and self-controlled, was so surprised that she stood there, as if she was frozen in time.
After a moment, they quickly adjusted their mood and began to discuss whether they should tell Mu Ziyan something. When they hesitated, they did not expect that Mu Yunting's hurried steps had just disturbed Mu Ziyan's attention. At this time, Mu Ziyan had quietly walked out and was about to ask what happened. Unexpectedly, she had inadvertently heard the conversation between her brother and sister-in-law.
Mu Ziyan, facing the unbearable truth, suffered indescribable pain in her heart. She leaned against the door, her body trembling slightly due to the inability to support, as if foreshadowing her imminent fall. A trace of confusion and sadness overflowed from her lifeless eyes, and she sobbed silently, letting her emotions spread in silence. This kind of pain was her unspeakable fear and powerlessness, and she could only seek a little comfort in silent crying.
Chen Anqi walked forward slowly, she stretched out her hand, and gently helped Mu Ziyan up. She glanced at Mu Yunting and sent a look to him to leave. After confirming that he had left the room, she and Mu Ziyan sat side by side on the bed. Chen Anqi held Mu Ziyan's hands with both hands and said affectionately: "Yanyan, I am deeply sorry. I once told Tan Yichen that my father knew the truth about his father's murder."
Mu Ziyan looked up at Chen Anqi with confusion in her eyes. Chen Anqi sighed softly and continued to explain: "My father once told me that he knew part of the inside story. When Tan Yichen sent you back that day, I met him outside the door and told him about it. I think this is the reason why he risked his life to save my father from danger!" After saying that, he lowered his head!
Mu Ziyan said with a resolute tone: "Now, I just want to make sure he is safe." Her words revealed deep concern. Then, she quickly stood up and left Chen Anqi's room in a hurry, leaving silence in the background.
Mu Ziyan returned to her room and began to pack her luggage anxiously. She walked towards the stairs without hesitation, and every step she took seemed so anxious. After hearing the noise, Chen Anqi also hurried out. After witnessing Mu Ziyan's actions, she knew in her heart that Mu Ziyan could not be stopped at this moment. So, she signaled the servants to open the door for Mu Ziyan.
Before Mu Ziyan's car returned, Uncle Yan had already stood at the gate of the villa, staring into the distance with a determined gaze. He knew that once the news was revealed to Mu Yunting, he would quickly pass the news to Mu Ziyan. If Mu Ziyan was still concerned about Tan Yichen, that eager emotion would drive her to return without hesitation. At this moment, his thoughts were interrupted, and he saw Mu Ziyan's car slowly driving into sight. At that moment, Uncle Yan's tense heartstrings finally relaxed. His eyes revealed a sense of relief.
Before Su Qing opened the car door for her, Mu Ziyan couldn't wait to get out of the car. She came to Uncle Yan and asked about the details! Uncle Yan had a complicated expression and only said: "Let's talk about it when we get home!"
Uncle Yan and Mu Ziyan sat on the sofa in the living room. This was the first time they sat down and talked face to face. Mu Ziyan's anxious mood was clearly visible on her face. Uncle Yan slowly said, "Xing Feng called and said he is out of danger. But he can't come back."
"Why? This is his home!"
"Mr. Long wouldn't allow it!" Uncle Yan's tone was a little helpless.
Mu Ziyan looked at Uncle Yan and couldn't say a word! She stood up and went upstairs to her bedroom.
On this day, Tan Yichen woke up. Xing Feng stood in front of the bed, overwhelmed with joy like a child. He helped Tan Yichen sit up, and Xing Feng quickly told him that Mu Ziyan had called him. Tan Yichen couldn't believe his ears, wondering if he was hallucinating. He was busy confirming with Xing Feng. When he wanted to pick up the phone, he couldn't find it! Xing Feng's face darkened.
"Brother, don't look for it, Lord Long has taken it!" Xing Feng whispered.
"Why?" Tan Yichen asked quickly.
"Master Long knows about your quarrel with Sister Yan, and now believes that you were injured because you heard the news of her leaving before you left, which distracted you."
"Ridiculous!" He punched the bed hard.
The resentful expression on his face made Xing Feng feel that the old Tan Yichen was back again.
"Brother, your injuries haven't fully recovered yet. Don't rush back!"
After saying this, Tan Yichen glared at Xing Feng and said, "I want to go back, and no one can stop me." As soon as he finished speaking, Long Zhaoxian walked in with the support of Yaqi.
Seeing Long Zhaoxian's serious face, as if he was going to subdue him! Tan Yichen called him "Master" in a low voice.
Long Zhaoxian sat down and said without any resistance: "I will not allow you to go home until your injuries are stabilized. That woman is your nemesis." He had a very angry expression.
Tan Yichen would not allow anyone to slander Mu Ziyan. Not even his master. "Master, please don't say that about Yanyan. She is my lover."
Yaqi stood quietly by the side, her face as pale as snow, her eyes showing deep disappointment. She turned her head slightly. There was a dull sense of oppression in the air, as if it had solidified, making it hard to breathe. The unknown future, who knows what kind of storm will erupt in the next moment.
Long Zhaoxian stood up slowly, his tone revealing deep concern: "Yi Chen, I have watched you grow up since you were a child. How could I harm you? When your injuries are healed, I will keep my promise and set you free." After saying that, he walked out of the room calmly.
Xing Feng realized that Yaqi had no intention of leaving, so he understood and quietly left the room.
Yaqi responded in her gentle tone: "Why be so persistent? She can't run away. Wouldn't it be better to go back after her injury is healed!" Yaqi still spoke softly and slowly!
For a moment, his eyes passed over Yaqi and fixed on the vague scene outside the window, and he was thinking deeply about the next path and direction.
"Yaqi, the world is complicated. If there is anyone who can make me let go of the deep desire for revenge in my heart, that person must be Yanyan. At that moment on the verge of life and death, I almost lost my desire for life. However, I remember someone whispered in my ear that she called me. This aroused my will to struggle and gave me the courage to live again!
When Tan Yichen mentioned Mu Ziyan, a ripple of tenderness appeared in his once calm eyes. As soon as these words came out, Yaqian's heart was like being hit by a heavy hammer. She didn't know that in Tan Yichen's heart, Mu Ziyan's weight was heavy enough to shake his fundamental emotions. She never expected that the greatness of emotion could affect a person's choice of grievances in the world so much.
Yaqi didn't say anything else, turned around and left in tears.
