The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

Chapter 87 Xing Feng's Selfishness

At two o'clock in the morning, Tan Yichen returned home exhausted. Without stopping for a moment, he went straight to their bedroom. He pushed the door open gently and steadily, and slowly approached the bed. The bedside lamp was still on, reflecting Mu Ziyan leaning against the bed, her eyes closed, already asleep. Tan Yichen took a deep breath and approached quietly, with an impulse in his heart to pick her up gently and put her on the bed. His movements were light and gentle, just to let her get a comfortable sleep in this quiet night.

"You're back?" Mu Ziyan slowly opened her eyes and spoke softly.

Tan Yichen responded with some self-blame: "I still disturbed your rest." Mu Ziyan immediately sat up straight, responded to him with a loving hug and sobbing. Tan Yichen seemed at a loss because of this sudden action, and could only anxiously call her name, trying to find the right words to comfort her.

After comforting her properly, Tan Yichen said softly, "Yanyan, I'm going to take a shower first. I smell cigarettes and I'm worried that you might feel uncomfortable." His tone revealed a kind of tenderness. Although Mu Ziyan was a little reluctant, she nodded silently to show her understanding.

As the sound of water came from the bathroom, Mu Ziyan's eyes unconsciously turned to the door. Her heart was full of expectations, hoping that Tan Yichen would finish bathing and come out as soon as possible. However, the fear deep in her heart emerged inadvertently. The shadow of Su Qing in the dream and the voice and appearance of the lost child made her feel endless fear and pain.

Tan Yichen was tortured by Mu Ziyan's various troubles and was in great pain. He supported the wall with one hand, lowered his head, and let the shower head pour down, soaking his whole body, so as to escape the pressure for a short time. He felt confused and helpless about how to resolve Yanyan's inner entanglement. Perhaps, only by revealing the truth can she resolve the self-blame in her heart.

When Tan Yichen gently lay down on the bed, Mu Ziyan's breath had already blended gently and deeply into the embrace of dreams. Her face was slightly worried, with unspeakable emotions locked between her brows, and her hands tightly grasped the quilt, as if resisting the uneasiness in the dream. Tan Yichen gazed at her affectionately, his heart was like a string being pulled, full of endless pity. He longed to stroke her calm face with his fingertips, but in the moment of hesitation, he chose to withdraw his hand after all. He could only use his eyes instead of words to express the deep concern and indescribable heartache.

This incident has left a deep mark of pain on all those who experienced it. Now, seeing Mu Ziyan sleeping soundly, Tan Yichen is filled with gratitude, thanking God for giving him such a favor. At this moment, he feels extremely satisfied and relieved.

After Mu Ziyan's struggle on the brink of life and death, he deeply understood his own emotional world, and knew that Mu Ziyan's existence was like a unique fire among the stars in his life, and was his indispensable beloved partner. As for the child, he could only accept the pain of losing him.

At the dawn of a new day, Tan Yichen had already left the bed and hurried to the company. When Mu Ziyan woke up from her sleep, she felt the coldness of the bed sheet, which penetrated her heart and made her tearful. There was no time for the two of them to care about each other, let alone to communicate their feelings.

Xing Feng and Uncle Yan stood in front of the desk. Tan Yichen's eyes were full of anger as he stared at the investigation materials they retrieved. The anger finally made him throw the materials heavily on the table. His eyes pierced Xing Feng coldly, forcing him to lower his eyebrows and tremble slightly due to the pressure in his heart. Xing Feng knew that the weight of this matter was not light, and the guilt of concealing the crime he knew was like a mountain weighing on his heart. However, faced with complex emotional conflicts, he was ultimately unable to cross the emotional barrier in his heart!

"Uncle Yan, please leave for a while." Tan Yichen said to Uncle Yan in a polite tone, and then the door closed gently. He then threw a photo in front of Xing Feng.

"You actually have selfish motives?" Tan Yichen stared at him angrily, his voice revealing dissatisfaction. Xing Feng's heart was turbulent, but he chose to remain silent and did not intend to defend himself. Now he deeply realized how serious a mistake he had made.

Tan Yichen stood up, walked to the French window, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said in a firm tone: "No matter who is involved in this incident, I will treat everyone equally. Because this not only touches my bottom line, but also involves two innocent lives." He turned to Xing Feng and shouted: "If Uncle Yan hadn't found out, how long would you have kept it secret from me? Don't you have any guilt for Su Qing's death and the child in her belly? Don't forget, Su Qing once called you brother!" After that, he sat back in the chair with a serious expression.

Xing Feng picked up the photo, stared at the figure of his dream lover, and took a deep breath. He stood up and said solemnly: "Brother, I can't believe that Yaqi would do such a bold thing. Unless someone is behind it."

Tan Yichen responded calmly: "The complexity of this incident has exceeded our expectations. Based on my understanding of Yaqi, although she is usually a bit willful, she would not be so courageous." His words revealed his trust in Yaqi.

After hearing this, Xing Feng eagerly defended himself, "Brother, you also think she is innocent, right?" His eyes revealed his protection for Yaqi. After careful consideration, Tan Yichen calmed down his anger and thought that Xing Feng's behavior was justifiable. If it was in the situation at that time, he might also make an impulsive judgment.

"Okay, go down and continue investigating." Tan Yichen ordered in a steady tone. Xing Feng responded and hurriedly left his sight.

Tan Yichen sat back in his chair, closing his eyes slightly and trying to rest. Suddenly, a serious thought flashed through his mind: "I can agree to your marriage, but there is a condition - you can't have children." He suddenly opened his eyes, his mind in a mess. Recalling what his master had said, he felt heartbroken.

If it was really Long Zhao who set up the trap, then didn't he indirectly kill their child? Immersed in the joy of marriage, he had almost forgotten about this old incident. But when he recalled the scene at the press conference when he and Mu Ziyan announced their marriage and the birth of their child, he realized that the root cause of the car accident might be this.

Tan Yichen supported the desk with both hands, tears welling up in his eyes. If his guess came true, then he would be the culprit of this tragedy.

He was the first to betray his master's promise.

Tan Yichen was in a panic at this moment, and was extremely worried. He immediately put on his coat, and with an anxious mood, he rushed home eagerly, wanting to check on Mu Ziyan's condition.

After returning home, he stepped onto the stairs without hesitation and headed straight upstairs. The door of the bedroom in front of him was open, and his steps became more rapid. He quickly entered the room and saw Mu Ziyan standing quietly in front of the window, with deep melancholy in her eyes, staring at the world outside the window.

Tan Yichen hurried over and asked with concern: "Why did you get up? Has the doctor been here?" He gently supported her, showing deep concern.

Mu Ziyan turned her head and stared at Tan Yichen's worried face. She touched his face gently, with mixed emotions in her heart. After her rebirth, she longed to spend every moment with him. However, his busyness made her feel helpless... Despite this, she still hoped that he could take care of himself and not overwork himself.

"The doctor has been here. He just told me to have a good rest. I'm recovering quite well." Mu Ziyan advised him to relax.

Tan Yichen's heart was in turmoil. He reached out his hand, carefully and gently pulled Mu Ziyan into his arms.

"I miss you so much, but I can't get away for a few days due to various reasons. Don't worry, I will find out the truth of this accident." Tan Yichen hugged her tightly, intoxicated by her unique fragrance. Mu Ziyan also returned his affectionate hug, with a trembling voice: "How can I bear to leave you alone to face everything." This sentence deeply hurt Tan Yichen's heart, and he hoped that the truth was not what he imagined. He urgently hoped that the truth of the matter could bring comfort and relief.

"If I don't look for you, Miss Lu really won't remember me." Qiu Yingjie sighed on the phone, revealing his disappointment. Lu Xinyue was busy in the office, and she responded briefly: "Okay, let's have dinner together tonight. You decide the place and send it to me." Then she hung up the phone decisively.

Faced with the sudden disconnection of the phone, Qiu Yingjie felt uneasy. He was worried that he might miss her favor again, and had subtle doubts about Lu Xinyue's way of doing things. He felt that he was being left out and a ripple of dissatisfaction arose in his heart.

At night, Lu Xinyue followed the navigation and arrived at the address Qiu Yingjie sent her. She originally expected it to be a novel restaurant, but she never expected it to be located in a high-end villa area in a bustling city.

The doorbell rang crisply, and Qiu Yingjie quickly opened the door with hurried steps. When his eyes focused on Lu Xinyue, he embraced her without hesitation. His kisses fell like raindrops, deeply imprinted on her lips. He hugged her into the house, gently placed her on the sofa, and pressed his body tightly against her. His eyes were full of affection, revealing his inner expectations and a little grievance. He asked softly: "Have you really forgotten me?" Lu Xinyue looked at his serious and serious face, and couldn't help laughing happily. She shook her head desperately, and then took the initiative to get close to his lips. The two of them were emotionally intertwined, and everything was unspoken.

After a deep physical exchange, the two of them snuggled together on the sofa, with Qiu Yingjie's fingers still gently wandering on her body, as if he didn't want to be separated for a moment.

Lu Xinyue sat up and asked, "Is this your newly purchased residence, Yingjie? Are you going to settle down here?" Qiu Yingjie immediately hugged her in his arms and held her hands tightly.

"Yes, I am determined to start a business here." Lu Xinyue was shocked after hearing this, but still asked firmly: "Why did you suddenly make such a decision?"

"Because of you, Xinyue. Your family and friends are all here. If you follow me back to Country M, we will start all over again. Let me face these difficult choices." Qiu Yingjie explained in a calm tone. Lu Xinyue hugged him tightly, buried her head in his chest, and stroked his arms with both hands.

"Yingjie, thank you for giving so much for me." she said softly.

"As long as you don't run away from me again, I'm willing to sacrifice my life for you!" Seeing this, Lu Xinyue quickly covered his mouth with both hands, "Don't say such nonsense."

She emphasized: "Now that Su Qing has just passed away, I don't want to hear any words related to death anymore." Their conversation continued to flow in their deep affection for each other, full of expectations for the future and cherishment of each other.
