The CEO's wife is reborn and vows to pay for her crimes in blood.

Chapter 165 Chu Xinglan is in trouble

"Can you put her to sleep now?" A faint flame flickered in Gu Ye's eyes.

A thin blush spread across Chu Xinglan's face.

"She'll go to sleep on her own after she's eaten her fill."

Because the baby is in a growth stage, he sleeps longer and longer, which is why she can enjoy romantic moments with Gu Ye without worry. Otherwise, even if she wanted to, she wouldn't be interested with a baby who only seems to understand things by her side.

"That's good." Gu Ye smiled as he personally fed Chu Xinglan cake so that the little baby would be full and he could have a proper intimate moment with Chu Xinglan.

"Lanlan, let's get married."

After their lovemaking, Gu Ye put his arm around Chu Xinglan's bare shoulder and said affectionately.

Chu Xinglan's heart skipped a beat.

Although she didn't mind having an intimate relationship with Gu Ye, the thought of marriage reminded her of her tragic fate in her past life.

"What's wrong?" Gu Ye asked anxiously when she didn't respond for a long time.

"I...I think we're fine as we are now," Chu Xinglan murmured softly.

Gu Ye could see that Chu Xinglan was unwilling, so he stopped pressuring her.

"That's true. Marriage is just another piece of paper. It doesn't matter whether we get married or not."

Gu Ye got up and dressed.

Chu Xinglan looked at Gu Ye and could see the disappointment in his heart. Although he said he didn't care, he must have felt very regretful.

Chu Xinglan could only stare blankly at Gu Ye's back as he walked into the living room and picked up a cigarette with some annoyance.

She knew that Gu Ye never smoked, but he would occasionally smoke one or two cigarettes when he was in a bad mood. He usually drank tea, but today he didn't drink tea. Instead, he sat alone in the living room smoking.

"Gu Ye, I'm sorry, I'm scared. I'd rather follow you without any official status than become Mrs. Gu again."

Chu Xinglan stared at Gu Ye, muttering to herself.

Since moving back to Emerald Garden, Chu Xinglan has also given up her apartment near the school. She stays at home every day, waiting for Gu Ye to come home from get off work. She enjoys this comfortable life. Besides focusing on her pregnancy, she is also too lazy to cause any more trouble. For the sake of her baby, she has even given up on revenge. But that doesn't mean she doesn't want to take revenge. She just wants to give birth to her baby safely and also wants to spend more time with Gu Ye.

Since we already know where those people are, we're not afraid they'll run away.

Chu Xinglan stayed at home. Since the little baby slept even more than her, she could only stay at home bored, waiting for Gu Ye to come back. In the past, Gu Ye would call her every hour and flirt with her in various ways, making her feel that time was flying by. But today, she did not receive a call from Gu Ye for a long time, which made her anxious. She lost patience and took the initiative to call Gu Ye, only to find that Gu Ye was in an important meeting.

Is the baby alright?

Gu Ye's doting words caused an uproar in the office, with everyone staring at him in disbelief.

Baby?

Gu Ye has a child?

That's impossible! I've never heard of that. And judging from his expression, it's not the kind of expression a child would have; it's clearly the sour smell of being in love.

Is this still the same cold and terrifying CEO Gu? Who exactly is this woman who can make him call her "baby"?

When are you coming back?

"What? Missed me?" Gu Ye asked with a smile.

Hearing Gu Ye say this, everyone was certain that he was indeed their love interest. But was this expression and voice still the Gu Ye they knew?

"No...no!" Chu Xinglan stubbornly insisted.

I really miss him a lot, and I'm happy just to hear his voice.

Unexpectedly, as time went by, their feelings for each other did not fade but instead grew stronger. The phrase "a day apart feels like three autumns" was not enough to describe them; they would go crazy if they did not hear each other's voices for even an hour.

"Yes, you didn't miss me, it was I who missed you." Gu Ye smiled, his voice even softer and gentler. "I'm in an important meeting right now, but I'll come and be with you after the meeting."

"No, no, you should just focus on your work."

Chu Xinglan felt a pang of panic and quickly said...

She didn't want to become a seductive concubine who bewitched a king, making him drop everything and rush back to be intimate with her in broad daylight.

"I'm hanging up." Chu Xinglan hurriedly hung up the phone.

Gu Ye smiled even more as he thought of Chu Xinglan's blushing face. When he turned around, he found that everyone was looking at him as if he were an alien.

Gu Ye touched his brow. Now that everyone had seen it, there was no point in hiding it anymore.

"What, am I not worthy of being in a relationship?"

"No, no, congratulations Mr. Gu on finding your perfect match."

Everyone's just flattering him and joking around. Who would dare say a word against the cold-faced Yama falling in love? That would be suicide!

"No way!" Xue Bai was quietly making a phone call to his beloved wife while slamming his hand on the table. He hadn't heard what anyone was saying when he suddenly uttered those two words, startling everyone into a cold sweat.

Xue Bai raised his head and looked at everyone with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong? I'm calling my sweet wife..."

As Xue Bai was speaking, he heard a knocking sound on the table.

Xue Bai then realized that he was in a meeting.

"I'm sorry, boss..."

In fact, Gu Ye was also distracted, so he had nothing to blame Xue Bai for and let the matter pass by lightly.

"Let's continue the meeting!"

The cake at home was all gone, so Chu Xinglan went out to buy a cake so that her little one could have a sweet cake after waking up. On her way back, she couldn't help but smile as she imagined her little one's excited gestures when he saw the cake.

She was unaware that she was being secretly followed.

“Baby, where are you?” Gu Ye called him.

"Didn't we just talk on the phone half an hour ago?" Chu Xinglan asked with a grin.

"Yeah, it was you little fox who lured me back with just one phone call. I didn't see you at home, where are you!"

"I bought a cake for our baby and I'm on my way home," Chu Xinglan said, then suddenly realized something was wrong. "Who's the vixen? Don't slander me."

"Yes, you're not a vixen, you're my darling. Come back quickly, before the baby wakes up, we can still do some 'mutual exercise'."

You...you filthy scoundrel!

Chu Xinglan's cheeks flushed crimson.

Just then, a sack floated down from behind her and suddenly covered Chu Xinglan.

Chu Xinglan made a struggling sound, and then the phone fell from her hand.

Gu Ye heard Chu Xinglan's screams on the phone and his expression suddenly changed drastically.

“Lanlan…”

He called again, but there was no response.

The thought that Lanlan had an accident filled his mind.
