The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

"Xinyue, how about we have a cup of coffee together this afternoon?" Mu Ziyan suggested softly on the other end of the phone.

Lu Xinyue responded with her usual smile and joked, "Would you like to have tea with me? Is your partner kind enough to agree?" There was a sense of ease and intimacy in her words.

Mu Ziyan chuckled and asked, "Which one are you referring to?" Her words revealed the tacit understanding between the two.

Lu Xinyue answered jokingly: "Oh, it's you two. Hahaha." Although the two had never met, the laughter on the phone made the atmosphere very warm.

"Then, let's go to the old place. And Su Qing will go with us." When Mu Ziyan mentioned Su Qing's name, Lu Xinyue's heart could not help but ripple. Although she had accepted the relationship between Su Qing and Yi Haotian, she always felt a little uncomfortable every time she met Su Qing.

"Okay, I'll finish my work and keep the appointment at three o'clock on time." Lu Xinyue responded solemnly.

"Then it's settled. See you then." Mu Ziyan confirmed, and the two of them made an agreement in this relaxed and pleasant conversation.

Seeing Mu Ziyan's face full of joy, Yu Ma hurriedly stepped forward and advised, "Yanyan, slow down, slow down. This is my little ancestor."

Su Qing walked in at the right time and couldn't help laughing when she heard what Yu Ma said. Recently, Su Qing's heart was like being bathed in spring breeze, and this place has become her warm home. Mu Ziyan, she has regarded her as an indispensable friend in her life, and the sisterly love is beyond words.

Mu Ziyan smiled and walked down the stairs slowly. Yu Ma stepped forward to support her and turned to Su Qing and said, "Are you still laughing? Pregnancy is a serious matter. You need to be careful at every step. When you get married and have children in the future, you will understand it!" Su Qing and Mu Ziyan were slightly surprised, but then they hugged Yu Ma tightly, and their laughter echoed in the air.

Mu Ziyan told Su Qing that they would meet in the afternoon. Su Qing saw that it was still early, so he decided to visit Yi Haotian's residence.

Yi Haotian was alone on the sofa, concentrating on reading a document, as if the world around him had stopped. He was unaware of Su Qing's quiet approach.

Su Qing came closer curiously, wanting to find out what he was reading. "What are you reading?" she asked softly, wanting to find out. Yi Haotian heard the voice, raised his head and met Su Qing's eyes, a touch of longing revealed in his eyes.

"How come you have time to visit my humble home today?" Yi Haotian said in a slightly teasing tone.

Su Qing looked at his childish appearance and couldn't help laughing happily. She replied, "Well, if I didn't have a small party to attend today, I'm afraid I could favor you until late at night." When mentioning the party, Yi Haotian's curiosity was aroused.

Su Qing continued, "All of this is the 'romantic debt' you left behind." I went there this time to help you untie that lady's knot."

Hearing Su Qing say this, Yi Haotian understood and guessed that this was the task assigned to them by Tan Yichen. He said in a self-deprecating tone: "I guess my charm is too strong, and all women will have wild thoughts when they see my handsome appearance." Then, Yi Haotian hugged Su Qing tightly in his arms and left a gentle kiss on her cheek.

Yi Haotian gazed at Su Qing with deep affection, handed the document in his hand to her, and said softly: "When you get there, you just need to be a lady and enjoy the warmth and happiness of the family. Look, these are our common assets." His eyes were full of doting, as if he wanted to see through his gaze her cheeks that were flushed with joy at the moment.

Su Qing turned around, put her arms gently around his neck, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Haotian." Yi Haotian's voice was steady and powerful: "After so many years of ups and downs, we are finally together and will never be separated again. You don't have to work hard for others and please others. I have the ability to give you an unparalleled life." As soon as he finished speaking, his lips couldn't help but press against hers, and the two of them made love passionately on the sofa, enjoying the happiness of only each other.

Yi Haotian once again gently embraced Su Qing in his arms, feeling warm in his arms. Suddenly, he took out a bright red gift box from the hidden place of the sofa pillow. A flash of surprise flashed in Su Qing's eyes. She curiously opened the gift box and saw a dazzling diamond ring lying quietly inside.

Yi Haotian took the ring out of the box gently, put it carefully on Su Qing's finger, and said to her affectionately: "Originally, I planned to propose to you when there is a more appropriate time." However, he changed the subject and said, "Since you have to meet friends in the afternoon, go and show it off." He seemed nonchalant, but he was actually sincere.

Tears welled up in Su Qing's eyes. Although she tried hard to control her emotions, the feeling of being touched still flooded into her heart. She lay in Yi Haotian's arms, letting her tears fall. Her heart was already filled with happiness and touching. Although he didn't say much, every action and every word made her deeply feel his sincerity and commitment.

When the clock struck two in the afternoon, Mu Ziyan sat quietly in the spacious living room, looking forward to Su Qing's return. She was not worried or anxious at all, because Su Qing was always so punctual and trustworthy.

A moment later, a familiar figure walked in from the door, accompanied by a relaxed "Sister Yan, I'm back, can we go now?" Mu Ziyan looked up, her eyes met Su Qing's, and she responded with a smile.

The two walked into the garage, and Su Qing stretched out his hand to open the driver's door. Mu Ziyan stopped him softly, "Su Qing, we are having a party today, and you are also the protagonist. I will call Zhang Yang and ask him to pick us up."

Su Qing responded with a smile, holding onto the car door with ease, and said, "I'm about to leave. I'm afraid you won't be able to find such a considerate driver in the future. Let me drive for you again." His words were joking, which made Mu Ziyan feel relaxed and happy. After thinking for a moment, she nodded and agreed to the request.

The two parked their car within the parking line on the side of the road. Holding hands, they crossed the road and came to the coffee shop that Mu Ziyan was familiar with.

Lu Xinyue sat dignifiedly at the quiet table, and the long waiting time seemed to freeze around her. Her impression of Su Qing was still hazy, as elusive as mist. After all, Su Qing's charm was enough to make Yi Haotian fall for her, and this deep attraction made her want to explore.

Then, the two walked into the room hand in hand, with friendly smiles on their faces. Lu Xinyue immediately stood up, extended her hand with an elegant gesture, and greeted Su Qing: "Hello, Su Qing." Su Qing also responded with a generous demeanor: "Hello, Sister Xinyue!" This handshake between greetings had a formal yet cordial atmosphere. Mu Ziyan witnessed this harmonious scene and couldn't help laughing softly. The three looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and then sat down in their seats. The atmosphere of the conversation slowly unfolded in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Su Qing lowered her head slightly, still a little hesitant and shy. After all, there was still a little unfamiliarity between her and Lu Xinyue, and they were not as familiar as friends.

Lu Xinyue asked softly, breaking the silence first: "Su Qing, when have you decided on your departure plan?"

Su Qing slowly raised his head and met Lu Xinyue's eyes when she asked him. At this moment, both of them were curious about each other.

Then, Su Qing smiled shyly and said, "About next week, when Haotian has arranged the affairs over there, we will set off."

When Lu Xinyue heard that they were about to leave, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Inadvertently, her eyes were attracted by the ring on Su Qing's hand, and the light pierced her thoughts.

"You..." Lu Xinyue pointed at the ring, her tone full of doubt.

Su Qing gently raised her hand, letting the ring sparkle in the sun. "Oh, Haotian has proposed to me." Mu Ziyan, who was standing by, was also surprised and delighted. She continued, "Congratulations, Su Qing, you are finally inseparable." Mu Ziyan held Su Qing's hand tightly and gave her a deep blessing.

At that delicate moment, Mu Ziyan's eyes met Lu Xinyue's face, and she caught the unspeakable emotion. The purpose rekindled in her mind made her say to Su Qing: "Su Qing, we are eager to hear the affectionate story behind this ring." Mu Ziyan's earnest eyes were like an invisible magnetic field, which also aroused strong curiosity and attention in Lu Xinyue's eyes.

"I met Haotian on the university campus." Su Qing's memories slowly unfolded, and Mu Ziyan's heart was moved. Xing Feng was once the big brother of the gang on campus, and both of them were members of his club. This surprised Mu Ziyan, because Xing Feng was now used by Tan Yichen, and it was hard to imagine how majestic he once was.

"I admired Brother Chen, and the feelings at that time were purely a secret love hidden in my heart." Su Qing blushed and turned to look at Mu Ziyan embarrassedly. Mu Ziyan encouraged her with a smile and a clenched hand, as if telling her: "It doesn't matter."

"Finally one day, I plucked up the courage to confess to him." Su Qing whispered, "But I didn't expect that he rejected me in public. I felt ashamed, so I drank to drown my sorrows. At that time, I didn't realize Haotian's feelings for me. Who would have thought that when I was drunk, I made his dream come true that night." There was a delicate emotion in her words, and Lu Xinyue understood it deeply.

"But I know that I can't have deep feelings for two people at the same time. It would be extremely unfair to anyone." Su Qing was immersed in the memories of the past, with deep regret in her eyes. "In the end, she left without saying goodbye." How much sadness and reluctance are contained in these few simple sentences, and she said it in a low tone at this moment.

Lu Xinyue suddenly realized that their story was surprisingly similar to her relationship with Qiu Yingjie. After so many years, she had experienced the endless nostalgia and reluctance to meet the person she loved. However, even so, she could still deeply feel the emotional bond that was hard to give up, the concern and attachment from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing Su Qing now bathed in Yi Haotian's affection and doting, he felt deeply comforted and finally realized that it was time to let go and move on.

Su Qing showed a relieved smile on her face, which was an obvious relief and happiness. She stared at Lu Xinyue and noticed the openness and relief in Lu Xinyue's heart. So, Su Qing took the initiative to reach out and hold Lu Xinyue's hand tightly.

"Sister Xinyue, I hope you can find your own happiness." Su Qing's words were brief, but they were like a spring breeze blowing through Lu Xinyue's heart, making her feel an indescribable sisterly love. Although it was only a brief touch, it made them feel like close friends who had met after a long separation. The three of them sat there in silence, without saying anything more, everything was said without words.

Tan Yichen was filled with deep longing for Mu Ziyan today, so he went home early. When his footsteps were about to knock on the threshold of the stairs, Yu Ma came out of the kitchen, still wiping her hands, and whispered clearly: "Yanyan and Su Qing went to meet Lu Xinyue together." Hearing this, Tan Yichen understood that his little wife was going to perform a "special mission". So he decided not to disturb her action plan. Instead, he walked to the study and immersed himself in the quiet world of himself.
