Ye Chen was silent. He sat there quietly, like a statue. After a moment, he raised his head slightly, with a hint of confusion in his eyes. He unconsciously stroked the corner of his clothes with his fingers and said slowly: "I don't know either. Now I just want to work hard and take Ye Group to a higher level."

Lin Xi looked at Ye Chen, with mixed emotions in her heart. She sighed softly and said, "Maybe time will slowly heal everything."

Ye Chen did not respond, but cast his eyes to the sky again. The endless sky was full of twinkling stars, just like the unspeakable thoughts deep in his heart. His eyes became deep and distant, as if he was recalling every bit of his time with Xiaolan.

After a while, Ye Chen broke the silence: "We should go back and rest." He stood up and patted the dust off his body, his movements a little stiff.

Lin Xi also stood up. She looked at Ye Chen's back and silently prayed that he could get out of the haze as soon as possible. The two walked towards the tent one after the other. The desert night returned to tranquility, as if nothing had happened.

In the spacious cabin, Jiang Xiyan's eyes were like being attracted by a magnet, staring at Shen Jingyan affectionately. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes full of tenderness and love, as if the whole world only had this person in front of him.

Jiang Xiyan said softly: "Jingyan, do you know? You are like the brightest star in the sky, always illuminating my heart." His voice was as gentle as the breeze, carrying endless attachment.

Shen Jingyan lowered her eyes slightly, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. She bit her lower lip lightly, fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her hands uncomfortably, and responded shyly: "Xi Yan, don't say anything."

Xia Qingcheng, who was standing by, was instantly filled with jealousy. She looked at Jiang Xiyan's focused expression, and her eyes revealed an unconcealable sense of loss and jealousy. She bit her lips so hard that they almost bled. Her hands clenched unconsciously, and her knuckles turned slightly white. The bitterness in her heart kept surging like a tide, her eyes were dim, and her body was trembling slightly.

Xia Qingcheng couldn't help but speak: "Jiang Xiyan, is she the only one in your eyes?" Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of despair.

Jiang Xiyan didn't even look at Xia Qingcheng, he just focused on helping Shen Jingyan tidy up her messy hair. His movements were gentle and focused, as if he was treating an extremely precious treasure. "You knew that I loved Jingyan, why did you follow me on the plane?" His tone was cold and resolute.

Xia Qingcheng's face turned pale in an instant, and her body swayed, as if she would fall down at any time. "Because I am your wife." Her voice was weak but firm.

"You are the one who planned my marriage with you. Xia Qingcheng, forget it. I will never fall in love with you." Jiang Xiyan's eyes were cold, without a trace of warmth. After he said this, he turned his gaze to Shen Jingyan again, as if Xia Qingcheng did not exist at all.

Xia Qingcheng's tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall. She straightened her back, trying to make herself look less fragile.

"Jiang Xiyan, are you so heartless? We were once husband and wife in name, is it possible that we had no feelings for each other at all?" Xia Qingcheng's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of pain and unwillingness.

Jiang Xiyan's brows were knitted tightly together, his eyes were filled with indifference and determination. He stared straight at the pitiful woman in front of him and said word by word: "I have made it very clear to you! From the beginning to the end, there is only Jingyan in my heart, and there is no room for anyone else. Don't keep pestering me! No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain."

Xia Qingcheng stared at Shen Jingyan, her eyes full of anger and unwillingness. She gritted her teeth and said, "Shen Jingyan, listen carefully. I am now pregnant with Jiang Xiyan's child. No matter how deep and passionate your love was before, the reality is so cruel. He has already married me. Do you really have the heart to break up our family and ruin this marriage?"

Hearing this, Shen Jingyan's body trembled. She turned her head and looked at Xia Qingcheng with complicated eyes. Her lips trembled slightly as she said, "Xia Qingcheng, please believe me, I never thought of destroying your marriage. It's just..." Shen Jingyan paused here, then slowly shifted her gaze to Jiang Xiyan on the side, tears welling up in her eyes, and she said with a choked voice, "Jiang Xiyan, now that things have come to this, since Xia Qingcheng is pregnant with your child, you should take responsibility, take good care of them and their child, and completely forget our past!"

However, at this moment, Jiang Xiyan suddenly shouted excitedly: "No! My memory has been fully restored, Jingyan, I remember everything! The person I truly love has always been you!"

Shen Jingyan was shocked when she heard this. She looked at Jiang Xiyan in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes, but she quickly shook her head, trying to calm herself down, and said softly, "It's too late now, Jiang Xiyan. Let the past be the past. You should cherish the life in front of you, take your marriage seriously, and take the responsibilities that a man should have!"

"Jingyan..." Jiang Xiyan wanted to reach out to grab Shen Jingyan's hand, but Shen Jingyan dodged him.

Shen Jingyan gently raised her hand and looked at the exquisite watch on her wrist. The hands on the dial clearly showed the current time - five o'clock in the morning. She couldn't help but frowned slightly, thinking to herself: "I don't know how long it will take to reach the place where Ye Chen and Lin Xi are..."

At this time, the plane was flying smoothly through the silent and deep sky in the early morning. Through the porthole, Shen Jingyan stared at the soft and white clouds outside. The clouds were layered and in various shapes, some like galloping horses, some like dancing fairies, and some like mysterious castles floating in the air.

She just looked out the window quietly, her thoughts gradually drifting away.

Xia Qingcheng stared at Jiang Xiyan, her eyes full of complicated emotions. She opened her red lips and said slowly, "I went to the hospital for a check-up the day before yesterday..." She paused for a moment, as if she was a little hesitant, but finally mustered up the courage to continue, "I found out that I'm pregnant with your flesh and blood. This little life is now growing quietly in my belly. Jiang Xiyan, for the sake of the child, can you forget her? I know that the past is hard for you to let go, but now we are about to welcome a new life, shouldn't we give each other a chance to start over?"

Jiang Xiyan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a cold and disdainful smile. He slowly turned his head, his eyes piercing straight at you like a sharp sword. His eyes were full of undisguised ridicule and contempt, as if he was looking at the biggest joke in the world.

"Do you think that I will be foolish enough to believe such a ridiculous reason you just made up?" Jiang Xiyan's voice was like a cold wind blowing across the ice, cold and ruthless.

As he spoke, he pulled out a document from his pocket and threw it in front of you. "This is the original report. It records everything clearly. And it's been two weeks. Open your eyes and take a good look at it!"

You stared at the report with your eyes wide open in disbelief, feeling panic in your heart. After hesitating for a moment, you suddenly reached out and grabbed it, and quickly flipped through it. As you read deeper, your face became paler and paler, and your lips began to tremble uncontrollably.

“This…how is this possible?” You muttered to yourself, clenching the thin piece of paper tightly in both hands. Your fingertips turned white from holding it so tightly.

Suddenly, your head hurts as if it were hit by a heavy hammer. Blurred fragments keep flashing through your mind, and those fragmented memories make you feel extremely confused and scared.

“I clearly remember that night…” You closed your eyes tightly, trying to grasp those fleeting images, but you were still unable to piece together the complete scene.

At this time, Jiang Xiyan spoke again: "Shen Jingyan told me a long time ago that you should completely forget everything that happened between you and live with me peacefully. She has already chosen to give up on you, why are you still so stubborn?"

Hearing this, your emotions instantly collapsed, you covered your head tightly with your hands, and growled in pain: "No... I don't believe it! This is absolutely not true!"

However, facing your hysteria, Jiang Xiyan just looked at you indifferently and said word by word: "This is the cruel fact. Whether you are willing to accept it or not, it is right in front of you."

Jiang Xiyan's face was as cold as frost, and he stared at Xia Qingcheng with his eyes as cold as ice and without any emotion. He opened his lips slightly and said word by word: "Even if things have developed like this, I have absolutely no love for you."

However, in the face of such heartless words, Xia Qingcheng just smiled slightly, and responded with a firm and gentle look in her eyes: "It doesn't matter, as long as I love you in my heart, it's enough."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiyan's sword-like eyebrows wrinkled slightly, as if blown by an invisible breeze. His deep eyes revealed a look of confusion and helplessness, like the stars twinkling with faint light in the night sky, making it difficult to guess his true thoughts.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Xiyan sighed softly. This sigh was like a maple leaf falling in late autumn, floating in the air with a hint of sadness and melancholy. Then, he slowly asked, "Why are you so stubborn? Why are you so obsessed with me?"

Xia Qingcheng stared at Jiang Xiyan firmly and answered without hesitation: "Because I love you! No matter how ruthless you are to me, no matter how much pain and suffering I suffer, my heart will always belong to you. This love is deep in my bones and cannot be given up. Even if I know that I will be covered in bruises, I will not look back. I just love you, I love you hopelessly!"
