Seeing that she had behaved herself, Gu Yuan sat down opposite her with satisfaction and then went back to work.

Fu Hange was incredibly bored, so she took out her phone, but the screen was still black.

She tapped on the table and called out to Gu Yuan, "Could you charge my phone?"

Without looking up, he said, "There are no chargers here."

No charger? She didn't believe such a big company wouldn't have a charger. It was definitely just an excuse to avoid lending it to her.

She looked at the man opposite her and said, "When did your company become so poor that it couldn't afford to buy a charger?"

A blatant irony!

However, Gu Yuan seemed unmoved and continued to work diligently.

I casually tossed her a line: "Provocation doesn't work on me."

"......"

A long silence fell over the office.

Fu Hange spun around in her chair, tilting her head back to hold her phone above her head. The poor phone was completely black; the home screen wouldn't change to any other color no matter what she did.

She couldn't help but complain, "Why are you so inhuman?"

"Think what you want."

Why won't they let her go out or charge her phone? What are they trying to get her to do?

What did she do wrong? Why is she being restricted like this?

Fu Hange was so bored that she didn't know how long she had been sitting there. Looking at the man opposite her working so diligently, she couldn't help but feel angry.

It seems that all he cares about is work. Even when they were newly married, he was always leaving early and returning late, and he didn't spend much time with her at all.

That's it. She wouldn't dare to covet what doesn't belong to her.

Fu Hange sighed: "When will you let me go back to the Xu family?"

Even if he doesn't divorce her, don't charge her phone, and don't let her go back to the Xu family, he really can't find a reason.

Gu Yuan paused for a second while working, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. Fu Hange didn't see it clearly; that emotion only lasted for a second before disappearing.

"Give me a reason," he said, head bowed.

"There's practically no news about the Xu family in the media right now. You must have done that, right?"

Gu Yuan didn't shy away from the topic at all, and was quite direct: "I did it."

Fu Hange nodded and continued, "So I want to go back and take a look. No matter what it looks like now, it has at least been taken care of by me and has my own hard work. I hope you can grant me this request."

"Why should I?" Gu Yuan raised his head and met her eyes.

"We're not divorced yet, I have my personal freedom, and you have no right to confine me."

Gu Yuan gazed at her with eyes as deep as a swamp: "What if I refuse?"

Fu Hange frowned, her brows furrowing into a V-shape: "Why bother? Why drag this out? You want revenge on me? Yes, back then, when Mingheng was accused of plagiarism, it was found that it was the Xu family who did it, so you hate me."

She paused, her voice trembling slightly, and said, "I admit it. Just pretend I did it. Can you please let me go?"

Gu Yuan's fingertips trembled slightly. She actually admitted it. In order to escape from him, she actually admitted it.

How ridiculous, how ironic.

He had given her so many chances, and she never explained. When the affair was finally exposed and the Xu family was utterly ruined, she still didn't come forward to explain, but instead chose to flee to the countryside with Fu Chengyi.

Perhaps she wanted to be as far away from him as possible.

Gu Yuan held his forehead with one hand, feeling a splitting headache, and couldn't bring himself to express the indescribable emotions in his heart.

Gu Yuan said slowly, "Do you think I'll let you go like this? I'm going to keep you by my side and control you forever."
