The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

Lu Tianming stood in front of the transparent window in the office. After thinking it over again and again, he finally dialed Mu Ziyan's number.

Seeing the familiar words appear on the phone screen, Mu Ziyan couldn't help but feel nervous. After a brief hesitation, she chose to answer the call.

"Zi Yan, thank you very much for answering my call. I wonder how your body is recovering now? Xin Yue has already informed me of your condition."

"Oh, Tianming, I'm recovering well now and am resting at home." Mu Ziyan's tone revealed calmness and serenity.

"I'm very relieved to hear you say that." On the other end of the phone, Lu Tianming's words carried a subtle concern. In the silence that followed, both seemed to be looking for the right words. Although Lu Tianming was anxious to visit her in person, the reality of the distance prevented him from doing so. He knew very well that if she was still in the hospital, even if he could secretly take a look at her, it would be enough to satisfy him. However, at this moment, he could only convey his concern and blessings through the phone line.

"Then you should take good care of yourself. Goodbye!" Lu Tianming hung up the phone decisively, with care and wishes for Mu Ziyan in his heart? He was determined not to bring her any unnecessary troubles because of himself.

Tan Yichen returned home early today. When he walked outside the bedroom door, he could already hear the conversation coming from inside. He did not show any jealousy, but cast his eyes towards the empty door, guessing that Lu Tianming had found his place and finally stopped clinging.

With a smile, Tan Yichen walked into the bedroom. When Mu Ziyan heard the noise, he looked up with a slightly tense expression. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his wife still couldn't hide her emotions.

Mu Ziyan asked softly, "Why did you come back so early today?" Tan Yichen's answer was calm and affectionate, "Because I was worried about you, I came back as soon as I had time. I wanted to spend more time with you."

Mu Ziyan then took the initiative to approach him, looking up at this man. She loved everything about him, but since experiencing this storm, there seemed to be a sense of alienation between the two.

"Yichen, let's have another child after I recover." Mu Ziyan proposed solemnly, which surprised Tan Yichen. He couldn't guess her true thoughts.

Tan Yichen held her tightly in his arms, surrounding her with a firm attitude.

"Yanyan, don't blame yourself for losing the child. No one else needs to blame you. I just want you to be alive. As for the child, let nature take its course. I just want your company and well-being."

Mu Ziyan buried her head in Tan Yichen's chest affectionately, listening to the steady heartbeat, which added a touch of tranquility to her heart. Tan Yichen gently lifted her face with both hands, and then slowly touched her lips with his, restraining the enthusiasm in his heart, and stopped there. Their foreheads touched, and his heavy breathing revealed a slight fatigue: "You go to bed and rest for a while, I'll take a shower..." Mu Ziyan obediently went back to bed to rest, and Tan Yichen turned and went to the bathroom.

Entering the bathroom, Tan Yichen gently supported the edge of the marble bathroom cabinet. He stood in front of the mirror. His face had been stained with some traces of time, and it was more heavy and vicissitudes than before. The lingering doubts in his heart had not been clarified by reality. He found it difficult to face Mu Ziyan's gaze. He was afraid that the truth would make Mu Ziyan hate him completely. Even their love would come to an end.

Waking up in the early morning sunshine, Chen Anqi glanced at Mu Yunting who was still sleeping. Recalling the passionate love they had last night, she couldn't help but smile and gently pulled the quilt for him. Then, she got up and walked to the bathroom.

She carefully took out a white medicine bottle from the drawer, and decisively took out a pill and swallowed it. She gently closed her eyes with a slightly painful expression on her face. At this time, the sudden ring of the phone broke the quiet morning. In order to avoid disturbing Mu Yunting who was sleeping soundly, Chen Anqi quickly walked to the bedside cabinet where the phone was placed.

After picking up the phone, Lu Xinyue's voice came from the other end. Chen Anqi was surprised by this, but still talked to her politely. At the same time, Mu Yunting woke up from his sleep and his eyes met Chen Anqi's. He watched her back as she answered the phone, and then walked silently to the bathroom.

Mu Yunting walked steadily to the sink, and his eyes were attracted by the white medicine bottle next to it. He gently picked up the medicine bottle and stared at the words on it. Those words were like a clear guiding light, revealing the purpose of the medicine. He took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress his anger, quietly hid the medicine bottle behind him, and then slowly walked out of the bathroom.

After Chen Anqi hung up the phone, she turned around and her eyes fell on Mu Yunting who was walking slowly towards her. She stared at Mu Yunting's face, and her serious expression made her feel confused. Just as she was about to ask a question, a sudden phone ring rang in Mu Yunting's phone, breaking the short silence.

Mu Yunting accidentally put the medicine bottle into his pajamas pocket, and then quickly answered the phone. At this time, Chen Anqi was hurriedly walking into the bathroom. After learning about Lu Xinyue's urgent request, she immediately went into the bathroom and started the process of washing. Mu Yunting was communicating on the phone, but his eyes fell on Chen Anqi. From her anxious expression, he judged that she might have forgotten that the medicine bottle had not been properly sorted.

Lu Xinyue was in the coffee shop that she was so familiar with. The scene of the car accident in her memory was still surging in her mind like a stormy sea. Her heart tightened, and she didn't even notice Chen Anqi sitting down opposite her.

"Xinyue, you seem to be worried." Chen Anqi's voice brought her back to reality. Xinyue raised her head and smiled slightly unnaturally, then cast her eyes towards the scenery outside the window.

"Sister-in-law, do you know? Yanyan, Su Qing and I had a brief gathering here that day. Later, as the night grew darker, we decided to go home. Just as we were about to part, a sudden car accident involved Su Qing and Yanyan in the car." She looked at Chen Anqi again, only to see her eyes full of tears, looking at Lu Xinyue in disbelief.

Lu Xinyue continued calmly: "Su Qing and the baby in her belly died on the spot, and Yanyan unfortunately had a miscarriage." There were still tears in her eyes, and that moment seemed like yesterday to her.

Chen Anqi held her hand and asked anxiously, "How is Yanyan now? Why is there no news?"

Lu Xinyue sighed and explained, "It was Tan Yichen who ordered Xing Feng to block the news. Yanyan has returned home to recuperate."

At this time, Chen Anqi stood up and wanted to leave. Lu Xinyue hurriedly held her back and comforted her softly: "Sister-in-law, please be patient. Sit down first." She patted the back of Chen Anqi's hand gently, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

"It won't be too late for us to go see Yanyan when she's almost recovered. At present, the real cause of the accident has not yet been found out." Lu Xinyue's words revealed calmness.

Unexpectedly, the two of them cast their eyes towards the scene of the car accident at the same time, each with complicated thoughts in their mind.

In the afternoon, Chen Anqi returned to the Mu family and was about to go upstairs to find a place to rest for a while, but she didn't expect that Mu Yunting was already sitting on the sofa in the living room. She hurried over to him, and the white medicine bottle on the coffee table seemed to silently announce that Mu Yunting had learned about her.

Mu Yunting looked up at Chen Anqi with resentment in his eyes, and asked, "Why did you do this?" But Chen Anqi remained silent, and this silence made Mu Yunting more and more excited. He walked towards her quickly, held her shoulders tightly, and used his strength to drive her to give an answer. However, Chen Anqi knew that she was wrong first, but still found it difficult to speak.

Mu Yunting looked at Chen Anqi, who seemed to have closed her heart, and reluctantly chose to let go. He took a deep breath, decided not to dwell on this matter, strode out the door, and left alone.

Tan Yichen was sitting at his desk, staring at the photo album, trying to find some clues.

Suddenly, a hurried knock on the door broke the silence, and he shouted loudly: "Come in!" Then, Xing Feng hurried into the room, anxiously resting his elbows on the table, with beads of sweat on his forehead. He reported: "Brother, Yaqi is here. She is downstairs in the company and is about to go upstairs to find you." Tan Yichen's eyes were still deep, and he quickly put the photo into the drawer.

Xing Feng stood up straight, left the office decisively, and prepared to meet the goddess he had been thinking about.

Not long after, Yaqi, wearing a bright dress and high heels, walked towards Tan Yichen's office. Xing Feng gently stood in front of her and suggested in a friendly way: "Don't you want to say hello to your old friend?" However, Yaqi glanced at Xing Feng coldly, took off her sunglasses, and sneered: "Humph, who can call you an old friend?" Then she said with a little anger: "Your hands are dirty, don't block the way." Although Xing Feng looked a little unhappy, he still politely moved his hands away to clear the way for her. Yaqi walked straight to Tan Yichen's office, looking indifferent and determined.

In the silence, Yaqi did not knock on the door, but gently opened it and walked in. At that time, Tan Yichen was reviewing documents attentively, and his expression was extremely focused. Tan Yichen heard the sound and suddenly raised his head, his surprise was beyond words. He asked with a little surprise: "Hey, when did you come back?" His tone and expression conveyed his surprise and joy for her. This appearance was really a performance for Yaqi.

Tan Yichen gestured elegantly for Yaqi to take a seat, and she sat down comfortably on the lazy sofa. When Yaqi sat down and prepared to pick up the tea set to make tea, Tan Yichen quickly turned to Xing Feng and said, "Pour a cup of coffee for Miss Yaqi." Xing Feng understood and said to Yaqi with a smile, "Please wait a moment, Miss Yaqi." Yaqi did not look up, but simply responded.

After Yaqi sat down on the sofa opposite Tan Yichen in a smart manner, she mentioned jokingly: "I accidentally saw your public good news on the social platform, and came here to send my blessings to you and Mu Ziyan." Tan Yichen was slightly touched when he heard this, but still maintained a polite smile and responded: "You have come from afar, and I feel your kindness." However, Tan Yichen still felt unclear about Yaqi's purpose.

"In addition, I also learned that she is pregnant." Yaqi said lightly. After hearing this, Tan Yichen's face instantly became solemn. He stood up, and couldn't help thinking that the child might become Yanyan's eternal pain.

"Yasi, where do you live now?" he asked formally.

"I'm staying in a hotel now." Yaqi answered briefly.

"In addition to the blessings, is there anything else about the car this time you come back?" Tan Yichen asked further.

"Oh, let's have some fun while we're at it." Yaqi responded easily.

Tan Yichen turned around and said, "Then let's have dinner together tonight." After hearing this, Yaqi stood up excitedly and walked quickly to his side: "Great, I've been looking forward to spending some time with you for a long time."
