Either the sword would go all the way in and he would bleed to death, or he would get used to the pain and continue to live his days numbly, without direction, without goals, and without knowing what the future held. He would live like a zombie, taking each day as it came, until this body died.
She clearly wanted to spend more time with him, but he couldn't even find a reason to do so. He could only force a smile and say, "Since you still have things to do, go ahead and do your work. I'll sit here for a while."
Bai You was a complete blank slate when it came to emotions. Lu Yunxiao was the first person to start drawing a picture, but he was also the only one. Apart from Lu Yunxiao, Bai You was completely oblivious to anyone else's emotions. Therefore, she didn't notice Tang Feng's abnormality at all and simply smiled. "Then I'll be leaving first. Remember to help me investigate the Zhou family's affairs. I'll be waiting for your news."
"Don't worry, I'll let you know when there's news."
Bai You responded to Tang Feng with a wave of her hand. She turned and walked away, her steps relaxed. Although she said she disliked Lu Yunxiao's control, she also enjoyed his possessiveness and control. Only love could make her willing to let someone control her whereabouts. That person could only be Lu Yunxiao.
Tang Feng smiled bitterly. He was such a failure as a person. The first person he wanted to give his heart to, she had never even met him, she didn't even know what he looked like, and she died just like that. The second person he wanted to love, she was pushed to someone else before he even discovered his own feelings. By the time he discovered his own feelings, she had already become someone else's wife. God really was playing a joke on him.
Happiness passed by him several times, but he didn't even have a chance to make a move.
I don’t know how he offended God in his previous life that he has to be treated like this in this life.
…
Lu Yunxiao set the curfew for Bai You at 9:30. When Bai You rushed back, it was 9:20. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw the man who had just got off work. He was sitting on the sofa with an iPad in his hand, handling official business while looking at his watch.
Bai You reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. Judging from his posture, he was most likely angry again.
She took a long breath, then put on a flattering smile, went into the house to change into slippers, and called out sweetly, "Mr. Lu, good evening."
Lu Yunxiao gave him a cold look and said indifferently, "Do I look good to you?"
Bai You: "..."
Why should one family make things difficult for another family? Really.
She complained a thousand times in her mind, but couldn't say a word. She smiled even more brightly, walked to the sofa, and sat down next to him.
He picked up a banana from the table and asked, "Mr. Lu, would you like some bananas? I'll peel one for you."
Lu Yunxiao looked at Bai You's flattering actions, and he couldn't breathe, his chest was stuck, and he almost died of anger. Every time something happened, she was always like this, not wanting to solve it, not wanting to have a serious talk with him, just wanting to muddle through, and then not change next time, and continue to do her own thing.
Finally, he couldn't help himself and poked her forehead twice with his fingers, saying angrily, "Can't you be more ambitious? Where's your usual accomplice style? Why are you trying to please me with your sneaky eyes now?"
Bai You: "..."
Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, you're the chairman of the Lu Group. Can you maintain your aloof CEO persona? How could you possibly utter such a word as shifty? It's fine if it came from you, but now you're using it on her.
Why does he look so shifty? No matter how you look at it, what does that word have to do with her?
Bai You curled his lips and muttered, "You learned that word from Jian Yichen, didn't you? I'm telling you, stay away from him from now on, or he'll lead you astray. Look at the words you used, they're so ugly."
It's even more offensive when used on her.
Lu Yunxiao sneered, "Why, you think it sounds ugly? Then can you be a little more ugly when you do things? If you think it sounds ugly, then don't do it so ugly, isn't that enough?"
Well, here it comes again.
During this time, she had finally seen through it. Lu Yunxiao hadn't found a wife, but rather a daughter. He wanted to control and protect her in everything, and every word and action had to be dictated by him. She didn't know how his employees managed to survive under his pressure. With a boss like that, life was a struggle.
Bai You had originally wanted to try to please him, but his shifty look completely ruined his mood. He leaned back on the sofa, sighed deeply, and said perfunctorily, "Anyway, I'm here, so do whatever you want."
Lu Yunxiao: "..."
This is the first time I have seen someone admit his mistakes so confidently but refuse to change.
"What did you do this afternoon?"
"Mr. Lu Zhan, you are not prone to domestic violence, are you?"
Lu Yunxiao was confused by Bai You's nonsensical words. He subconsciously frowned and said sternly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Bai You exerted an effort and sat up instead of lying on the sofa. He took the banana he had just been about to peel for Lu Yunxiao and quickly peeled it. Then he ate it bite by bite, saying, "Based on my experience working at the police station for a year, people with domestic violence tendencies usually behave very well before getting married. They establish a particularly perfect persona for themselves, being attentive, gentle, and paying attention to every detail. This makes people fall for them quickly, and then makes those girls who fall in love lose their way and plunge into their gentle embrace. After they get married, they think they have a marriage certificate and legal protection, and their true colors are immediately exposed."
