Chapter 2

Wen Ran and I met at the university. To be more precise, she was my target, but I never saw her as a cold objective. I poured all my genuine feelings into her, and even after my strategy ended, I chose not to leave.

After graduation, she took over her parents' small business, while I leveraged my accumulated experience to start my own, opening a small company.

During this time, the company she managed encountered significant issues, even making the news due to incidents like unpaid wages and doubtful contract clauses. These troubles, one after another, were all resolved by my sleepless nights, social networking, and drinking until my stomach bled.

Now, her company has become a well-known media enterprise in Changshan City, and she personally earns millions annually, sparking envy among countless people in Changshan City.

But what I didn't expect was that the girl who once vowed to entrust her life to me is now filled with lies and has even climbed into another man's bed!

I packed my belongings simply, collected my thoughts, and sat on the sofa for a whole night, my mind filled with memories of our past love.

Until dawn, Wen Ran still hadn't returned.

I intended to say a final goodbye to her, so I drove to the company, but at the entrance, the security guard refused to let me in, no matter what.

"Uh… Mr. Chu Yang?"

"I am. You should have seen me before, right? I'm President Wen's boyfriend."

The security guard rubbed his hands, smiling, "I'm sorry, President Wen is currently busy with work and can't see visitors."

"What, even I'm considered a visitor?"

I gave a self-deprecating laugh and asked.

"Uh… In any case, President Wen isn't seeing anyone right now. I'm just a small security guard, so please don't make things difficult for me."

Just as I was at a stalemate with the security guard, Wen Ran and Duan Yu walked out of the building. Upon seeing me, a trace of panic unmistakably appeared on her face.

"Chu Yang? Why are you here?"

"I'm your boyfriend. Am I not allowed to come to your company?" I sneered.

"I didn't mean anything else, just came to see how your work is progressing."

I glanced at Duan Yu behind her and snorted.

"It seems my presence here is redundant. Did I disturb President Wen's rendezvous with her boyfriend?"

"What… what are you talking about?"

Wen Ran glared at me and quickly stepped forward, intending to hold my arm.

But I immediately noticed the hickeys densely packed on her neck, taking a step back in disgust, with my brows furrowed.

"Chu Yang, I know you're still angry about what happened yesterday, but you also know that our company is in a growth phase. Being busy is inevitable. Can't you, as a big man, stop nitpicking over these little things?"

"Besides, Xiao Yu and I are just friends. He's young and works in my company. If he doesn't understand something and comes to ask me, isn't it my job as the boss to explain it to him?"

"Can explaining things to him end up in bed? Your sibling-like relationship is really strong!"

I couldn't help but mock.

"Chu Yang!"

Perhaps my words embarrassed Wen Ran. Her face darkened, and she reprimanded, "If you want to argue, do it at home. Can't you set a good example for Xiao Yu?"

After reprimanding me, she softened her tone.

"Alright, husband, Xiao Yu and I have a lunch to attend. When we get home tonight, let's have dinner together to make up for yesterday's Valentine's Day. Okay?"

"No need."

I evaded her attempt to hold me and coldly said, "Celebrating Valentine's Day with a third wheel? I've never heard of such a Valentine's Day."

"Ahem… Brother-in-law, I must say something to you."

Duan Yu stepped forward, standing in front of Wen Ran like a husband protecting his wife.

It seemed I became the villain who was tearing them apart?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh angrily.

"Brother-in-law, if I remember correctly, Sister Ran has been with you for a long time, right? We've all seen how good she is to you. Can't you, as a man, understand her instead of having petty disputes over such trivial matters?"
