Zhong Heng International
Yuan Xuan returned to his office after the shareholders' meeting. Secretary Xiao Yu, who had a plump figure, brought him his favorite latte.
The aroma of the coffee quickly spread in the spacious office.
It was almost five o 'clock. The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the CEO's office crimson. The man sitting in the leather chair exuded a mesmerizing golden light.
The noble and elegant man supported his forehead with his elbow and fell into deep thought. His facial features were well-defined and angular, and he was extraordinarily handsome. However, there was a hint of melancholy in his aloof temperament …
The sleeves of his white shirt were pinned with the Swiss logo Swiss.
The jewelry designer Paula.
The cufflinks were specially designed by Crevoshay. They shone with a pale golden light under the afterglow of the setting sun.
When Yan Jun came in to report, he noticed that Yuan Xuan's expression was solemn. His eyes were dim, and his thoughts were surging like a tide. There was a sense of loneliness in his silence.
Yan Jun could not decide whether to say it or not.
"Has Mistress returned to Hibiscus Garden?" Yuan Xuan was the first to speak. His voice was slightly hoarse. He had been smoking a little too much recently.
"Yes, Mistress has been in Hibiscus Garden ever since Fifth Miss sent her back." Yan Jun looked troubled. He asked in confusion, "Young Master, why didn't we capture Mu Chenwu when there's such a good opportunity?"
"He slyly escaped the last few times. Today, our men are all around. He won't be able to escape even if he has wings!"
Yuan Xuan opened his eyes. His gaze was sharp and ruthless, and it was filled with hostility. "Capturing Mu Chenwu is important, but do you want Mu Chenyan to hate me for the rest of her life?"
Yan Jun stopped talking. He lowered his head and pondered. Mistress was deeply rooted in Third Young Master's heart.
Even the huge incident a few years ago was shouldered by Young Master alone. Although the way he treated Mistress was a little cruel, he still put in a lot of effort.
"Send people to continue tracking Mu Chenwu's whereabouts. Report to me immediately if he makes any moves. Don't disturb Mistress!"
Yuan Xuan ordered in a low voice.
Yan Jun nodded. Although this loyal assistant had not been by Yuan Xuan's side for a long time, he still understood Yuan Xuan's temper and character very well. Since he had chosen to shoulder everything himself, he would not back down and would persist until the end.
"Young Master, aren't you afraid that Mu Chenwu will bewitch Madam?"
Yan Jun was still a little indignant. His worries were not without reason. After all, his wife had secretly gone to see Mu Chenwu and returned to Hibiscus Garden without a word. It was hard to tell what she was thinking.
Yuan Xuan took a deep breath, got up, and stood in front of the wide French window. He looked at the setting sun outside and allowed the light to leave traces on his body. Under the light of the setting sun, he revealed a rare sense of loneliness.
"If she chooses between family and love, I'll follow her wishes! As long as she can have peace in her heart! "

When Mu Chenyan was still in a daze from her sleep, a man who reeked of alcohol grabbed her waist from behind. The slight coolness that came into contact with her skin was refreshing.
Mu Chenyan had just opened her eyes when the man's chin pressed against her head. He had been drinking, but he was only slightly tipsy. His warm breath blew on her neck, softening her body into a mess.
Mu Chenyan did not dare to move. She used her elbow to gently push the man away and said in a low voice, "Have you been drinking? Do you want to take a shower first? "
"Yes, I only drank a little. You were asleep when I came in just now, so I've already taken a shower."
Yuan Xuan's voice was a little tired and hoarse. Mu Chenyan wanted to reject him again, but she did not have the strength to push him away. His embrace was always so warm, and she had yearned for it for so many years …
The man who remained sober turned her over and fiercely pulled her into his arms. The long-suppressed desire and strong possessiveness surged out. He asked in a low voice, "Little Chenyan, can I?"
They had not succeeded in doing it for a long time.
Mu Chenyan was stunned for a moment. The conflict and pain in her heart made her unable to react at all. She had just heard those words from Mu Chenwu during the day. Now, she really could not immediately pretend that nothing had happened and be intimate with him.
Her eyes were watery as she stared at him in a daze. His Adam's apple trembled as he whimpered. His nostrils exhaled the fragrant scent of alcohol, and it gradually confused her!
Yuan Xuan used to be a very restrained person. Apart from the unpleasant incident last time, he had never really made things difficult for her regarding this matter.
Mu Chenyan turned her head and pressed her face tightly against his chest. She used her silence to reject him.
"It's okay. I won't force you if you don't want to … "Seeing that she did not respond for a long time, Yuan Xuan gently planted a deep kiss on her forehead. He continued," Little Chenyan, I'll be there whenever you want me to. "
"Yuan Xuan …"
Mu Chenyan's eyes were filled with tears. She choked and said in a low voice, "If, one day, I really betray you …"
"I'll forgive you." Yuan Xuan interrupted her and said dotingly, "After all, I've hurt you more than you. I'm the one who should be begging for forgiveness."
She did not know if it was because of the alcohol, but the man who was originally cold and silent revealed a rare emotion at this moment.
His tone seemed to be doting, but it also sounded like a promise. His dark pupils were bottomless. His long and narrow almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed as he stared at her beautiful little face, restraining himself.
Her long eyelashes trembled. Every time they moved, it seemed to be brushing against the tip of his heart.
Hearing Yuan Xuan say this, Mu Chenyan felt as if there was a fishbone stuck in her throat. She swallowed hard and closed her eyes, forcefully holding back the tears that were about to fall.
"Yuan Xuan, have you … loved me before?" Her voice was extremely suppressed.
Mu Chenyan seemed to have used all the strength in her life to ask this question that had been suppressed in her heart for many years. She felt as if her body had been hollowed out. If she was not lying down, she might have fainted.
Even if she and Yuan Xuan had to fight to the death in the future, she still wanted to make an explanation for her youth.
Yuan Xuan's bright almond-shaped eyes stared at her. His dark and thick eyelashes gently trembled, and the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile. "Silly girl, why would you suddenly ask this? What do you think?"
He did not answer her directly.
Mu Chenyan felt that she did not have the courage to continue asking.
Her eyes were still closed. She took a deep breath and pressed her head against his chest again. She pressed hard, as if she really wanted to melt into his body.
Her trembling heart was about to split her chest open. The pain that penetrated deep into her bones made her wish that she was dead every time she took a breath.
After a long time, she felt his burning heart beating wildly in his chest calling out to her. Although Yuan Xuan did not utter a word, his body was quietly asking her, "Do you still love me?"
She clearly knew that this was wrong, but it was difficult for her to lie to herself.
She had loved him before. How could the warmth that she had been longing for disappear all of a sudden just because she found out the truth today?
If she could, Mu Chenyan would rather that she had never loved him before. That way, she would not have to feel so much pain when facing Yuan Xuan, and she would not have to feel as if a knife was slashing at her heart if they really met on the battlefield one day.
Mu Chenyan murmured, "In the past, I really loved you …"
Yuan Xuan's body trembled slightly. He heard that the word she used was "in the past" …
For some reason, a kind of panic that he was about to lose her occupied his heart. He had always been a man who controlled other people's fates and thought that he was the only one in the world. At this moment, he was actually having a ridiculous feeling of worry about personal gains and losses.
"In the future, you will also love me!" He announced in a domineering tone.
As he spoke, the man waved his large hand and hugged Mu Chenyan even tighter. He was so strong that the woman in his arms seemed to be suffocating.
Mu Chenyan softly humphed and tried to put up a little resistance. Unfortunately, he was hugging her too tightly. She had no choice but to obediently let him do as he pleased.
Fourteen years ago, she had decided to marry him the moment she met him. This had never changed. This burning embrace was something that she had yearned for for many years.
She did not know why fate was so cruel. It gave her such a test on the day she received his embrace.
