Wolf-like CEO, Be Tender

"No, no, no. I had a child, I had a child for another man, I'm not worthy for you to touch." Xia Lan's mind was a complete blank. She only knew that saying this might cause him to stop.

Xiao Yan's movements stagnated, and the corner of his mouth hooked into a disgusted smile: "Xia Lan, you're really amazing. You can even say such words in order to leave me. "

"I don't need to lie to you." Xia Lan said again.

"Dead."

The sadness in Xia Lan's eyes was seen by him, and made him even more uncomfortable.

Because her grief was caused by someone else, not him.

In the four years she had been gone, had she thought of him for even a moment?

After a long period of silence, Xiao Yan finally asked, "Where's the child's father?"

"... "I don't know."

Xiao Yan laughed so much that he was about to cry.

He said fiercely, "The man ran away and you gave birth to a child? Xia Lan, you truly are despicable. "

Xia Lan lowered her head and did not say a word, whatever he thought was fine with her, she did not want to explain.

It was just that, why did his heart hurt so much?

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yan asked, "Is this the reason behind your sudden disappearance back then?"

Xia Lan nodded and did not lie. This was indeed the reason why she left that year.

This news was yet another blow to Xiao Yan. She had suddenly gone missing for the sake of another man, yet he had foolishly looked for her for four years, waited for her for four years, and even married her.

In the end...

Hehe, the dumbest, the stupidest is me!

He said, "You're right, you're so dirty that I feel disgusted."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Xia Lan tidied up his clothes and asked: Don't leave first, I have something to ask you.

The man stopped and stood where he was, not looking back.

Seeing him stop, Xia Lan immediately asked the question that had always puzzled him: "Four years ago, on my eighteenth birthday, where were you?"

"Why do you ask?" Xiao Yan turned and looked at her puzzledly.

Xia Lan quietly grabbed onto her blanket, covering her body that had not been properly organized, and asked: "I just want to ask, on my birthday, did you send me a text message?"

Xiao Yan laughed sarcastically: "It's fortunate that I didn't send you a message. Otherwise, wouldn't it make me seem even more foolish?"

Hearing his words, Xia Lan did not grieve, but instead, dropped the boulder that was pressed on his chest the entire time. This meant that the short message he sent to invite her to the hotel that night was not sent by him.

However... The phone number for the text message was indeed Xiao Yan's, so there was no mistake.

Therefore, Xia Lan asked again: What were you doing that day, or did anyone touch your phone?

"Why do you ask?" Xiao Yan looked at her in disdain, not knowing what she was doing. He didn't even know if she was scheming against him again.

"I'm just asking. I remember that you said that you would give me a special birthday present on my eighteenth birthday." When Xia Lan said this, he couldn't help but think of the beautiful things that happened before.

Hearing that, Xiao Yan's heart became even more furious. He looked at her with hatred and said, "That's right, I wanted to give you a special present on your eighteenth birthday. It's just that you disappeared before the present due to the drunk classmate gathering that day. But I was glad I was drunk that day. "

He had bought the rings and was going to give them to her on her eighteenth birthday.

"Did anyone touch your phone the other day?" Or have you texted me? " Xia Lan asked with a very anxious tone, as if the truth was about to be revealed.

Xiao Yan shook his head: "How would I know? I'm already drunk, how would I know?"

"What do you mean by that? You think I'm funny, you think I'm stupid? " Xiao Yan was getting impatient.

"Do you really not remember anything? Did anyone pick up your phone and you didn't even remember?" Xia Lan was anxious, how could she not remember anything?

If Xiao Yan did not personally send her a message, then there must have been someone else who had secretly touched his phone.

"Are you annoyed!?" Xia Lan, don't think that you can gain a sense of superiority from me. I used to treat you as a treasure, in the future you won't even be grass in my heart. " After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he no longer cared about her and turned around to walk out of the room.

Xia Lan sat on the bed in dejection, her clothes untidy and her hair in a mess. The truth was right in front of him, but there was nothing.

But one thing was for sure, the one who sold her out was not Xiao Yan.

Just as she was in a daze, a phone ringtone came from Xia Lan's bag.

He pulled his bag over, took out his phone and saw that it was Gu Xi Jue's phone number.

"Hello? Gourmet? " Xia Lan answered immediately.

"Where are you?" Gu Xi Jue's tone was a little heavy.

"I'm outside for a while."

This reply caused suspicion to rise in Gu Xi Jue's heart. Adding to the fact that Xia Lan's voice was a little off, he asked: "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine!" Xia Lan was shocked by Gu Xi Jue's alertness, and immediately denied it.

It would be good if she could bear with all those disgraceful things that had happened in the past. She didn't want to involve Gu Xi Jue in it.

Although he said that he was willing to be used by her, she didn't want to use him.

"It's really fine?" Gu Xi Jue obviously did not believe it.

"It's really fine. I've settled the matter, I'll be back soon." Xia Lan tried his best to make his voice sound more normal.

"Alright, let's have a meeting in the afternoon. Come back quickly."

After he had just finished, Gu Xi Jue was afraid that something bad might happen if she was too hasty, so he said again: "There's no need to rush too much."

"Alright, I understand." Xia Lan laughed. This man looked cold, but sometimes he would feel warmth in his heart due to some small details.

Xia Lan took a taxi back to the company. It was already past the afternoon, so she went to report to Gu Xi Jue's office after putting down her bag.

He knocked on the door and entered: "Gourmet, I'm back."

Gu Xi Jue looked up at her, but did not ask her where he went. Instead, he frowned, and stared at her for a long while before asking: "What happened to your clothes?"

"Huh?" Being asked in such a manner, only then did Xia Lan lower her head and realize that there was one less button on her shirt and it was faintly discernible on her chest.

She thought, it should have been when Xiao Yan ripped off her clothes in Di Hao Hotel, causing his to unbutton her shirt. She was still dressed well when she put it on, so he didn't know when he dropped it on the way back.

Just that, how could he explain it to Gu Xi Jue?
