CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings

Hearing this, Lin Xi couldn't help but frown slightly, her beautiful eyes full of doubt, and she asked impatiently: "Then what should we do in the long run?" There was a hint of anxiety in her voice, as if a drowning person was eager to grab the last straw.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and continued with a serious expression: "Although I'm not quite sure why your father is so determined to promote your marriage with Xiao Di Yu, but from what I know, Xiao Di Yu is by no means as innocent as he looks." At this point, he subconsciously clasped his arms, and a gleam of vigilance and caution flashed in his eyes, and it was obvious that he took this opponent very seriously.

"I've noticed this a long time ago!" Lin Xi nodded gently, with a helpless smile on her face. In the past few days, she has been exhausted from dealing with various difficult situations. Her eyes, which used to be bright and lively, could not hide their fatigue at this moment, as if she had already exhausted all her strength in this invisible war.

"So we must find a way to catch him. Only in this way can we force him to give up on you." Ye Chen's eyes, as deep as a pool of water, looked straight at Lin Xi, his eyes full of determination. There seemed to be a blazing fire burning in his eyes, revealing a determination to never give up until the goal is achieved and a fearless courage to move forward.

"But it's not easy to find any evidence against him! It's too difficult!" Lin Xi bit her pink lower lip gently, and a trace of deep worry gradually emerged on her delicate face. Her beautiful eyes revealed a trace of uneasiness, like a frightened deer, full of doubts and worries about this seemingly difficult plan, as if she was afraid that all her efforts would eventually come to nothing.

"Hmm..." Ye Chen pursed his thin lips slightly, forming a beautiful arc. He lowered his head slightly and fell into a brief contemplation. After a while, he finally raised his head and slowly said: "Just let me handle this matter. I will arrange people to keep a close eye on his every move. As long as he reveals any clues, we can immediately obtain key evidence. Believe me, we will succeed." When he said this, his eyes flashed with a reassuring and calm light, and at the same time, it was full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.

"Ye Chen, I have an idea?" Lin Xi's originally dull eyes suddenly became bright, as dazzling as the twinkling stars in the night sky. She stared at Ye Chen closely, and in addition to full of curiosity, there seemed to be a little mysterious light hidden in her eyes, as if she had discovered a new world. At this moment, she seemed to have a blazing fire in her heart, and the whole person became excited because of this sudden idea.

"What method?" Ye Chen's sharp eyebrows raised slightly, and his deep eyes turned to Lin Xi. His eyes also revealed a strong curiosity, like a child eager to know the answer to the riddle. At the same time, there was a subtle expectation quietly surging in it, as if he was happily waiting for Lin Xi to reveal the answer that he did not expect.

Lin Xi walked towards Ye Chen with light steps. Her figure was graceful, as beautiful as a flower in full bloom in spring. When she came closer, she stretched out a slender hand as white as jade and placed it on Ye Chen's broad and solid shoulder very skillfully. At the same time, her pink lips slightly raised up, outlining a playful and cute smile with a little boldness, and whispered: "Why don't we make it a done deal?" As she spoke, her beautiful big eyes blinked, and her eyes were full of mischief.

However, after hearing this proposal, Ye Chen's expression changed instantly. His face, which was originally as calm as water, was now slightly flushed, and then quickly became gloomy. He stretched out his hand without hesitation and gently pushed Lin Xi away. His two thick black eyebrows locked together tightly, forming a deep "chuan" character. "Stop it." His voice was low and powerful, with obvious displeasure and blame. "This kind of thing is not something you can joke about!" At this moment, his eyes revealed an unprecedented seriousness and solemnity, and there was also a hint of indescribable worry.

"Why are you being so silly! I really like you?" Lin Xi cried coquettishly, her eyes moistened instantly, with crystal tears flashing in the corners of her eyes. Her originally fair and tender face was now flushed with grievance, her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to explain more but didn't know where to start.

Her beautiful eyes were full of sorrow and sadness, like a clear spring with stones thrown into it, causing ripples. This look was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Ye Chen's heart, causing him to feel a sharp pain.

"I know, I like you too. But marriage is not a joke, and you are already engaged to Xiao Di Yu." Ye Chen took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and then shook his head helplessly. His brows were tightly furrowed, forming a deep "川" shape, and his eyes revealed endless worries and entanglements.

Ye Chen's eyes wandered, sometimes falling on Lin Xi's tearful face, sometimes looking into the distance, as if looking for a solution to the problem. His heart was like a surging sea, with the constraints of morality and his sincere feelings for Lin Xi intertwined and collided with each other, putting him in a dilemma.

Hearing Ye Chen say that he liked her, Lin Xi was stunned at first, and then a smile as bright as a spring flower blossomed on her face. She jumped up like a child with excitement, holding Ye Chen's arm tightly with both hands, and asked excitedly: "Ye Chen, you just said that you like me, is that true?" Her voice became a little trembling with joy, and her eyes were full of irrepressible expectation.

"Yes, I like you." Ye Chen stared at Lin Xi's cheerful face, and the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily, outlining a warm arc. His eyes were full of tenderness and pampering, like the warm sun in winter, shining on Lin Xi's body, making her bathe in happiness. However, at this moment, Ye Chen suddenly changed the subject, "But..."

"But what?" Lin Xi asked impatiently. Her eyes, as bright as stars, were flashing with eagerness at the moment. She stared at Ye Chen in front of her, as if she was going to dig out the crucial answer from his mouth in the next second.

Ye Chen frowned slightly, took a deep breath and said slowly: "But you are Xiao Di Yu's fiancée now, and we must never do anything that goes against moral ethics." When saying this, Ye Chen's eyes were extremely firm, like an unshakable mountain, from which one can clearly see his strong sense of responsibility and adherence to the moral bottom line.

Hearing this, Lin Xi pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, looking unconvinced. She stared at Ye Chen with wide eyes and loudly retorted: "So what? This is just his wishful thinking. I don't like him at all! Why should I restrict myself because of such an engagement imposed on me?" At this time, Lin Xi's eyes were not only stubborn but also a bit willful, like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and she was completely unwilling to be restrained by anything.

Faced with Lin Xi's excited reaction, Ye Chen could only sigh helplessly. He shook his head gently, with a deep sense of helplessness in his eyes, and persuaded earnestly: "Although that's what you said, but now you and Xiao Di Yu are already engaged, you have to consider your family's reputation and face no matter what. After all, marriage is not a joke. If it is not handled properly, it will not only affect your personal reputation, but may even bring unnecessary trouble to the entire family." While speaking, Ye Chen's eyes were full of worry and concern, and it was obvious that he was also very aware of the seriousness of the matter.

After hearing this, Lin Xi, who was originally full of energy, lost her temper like a balloon that was suddenly punctured. She slowly lowered her head and stopped talking. After a long while, she muttered in a voice so low that it was almost inaudible: "Okay... I know that my thoughts just now were too naive and immature..." At this moment, Lin Xi looked extremely disappointed. Her eyes were dim and mixed with a hint of frustration, as if she was regretting her impulsive words and deeds just now.

"Well, I understand how you feel." Ye Chen said softly, and at the same time he reached out and gently stroked the top of Lin Xi's head. His eyes were as gentle as water, and he stared deeply at the helpless girl in front of him, as if he wanted to convey endless warmth and strength to her with his eyes.

At this moment, the time has quietly approached five o'clock in the afternoon. The setting sun is like a gradually ripening fruit, slowly sliding towards the western sky. The soft light it emits, through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves in the garden, turns into countless golden threads, interweaving into a beautiful dreamlike picture. Those mottled light and shadows, some fall on the grass, like blooming golden flowers; some are reflected on the wall, forming abstract and charming artistic patterns. All this looks so peaceful and serene, but it cannot cover up the worries deep in Lin Xi's heart.

Lin Xi raised her head slightly, looking at the slowly setting sun, and a sense of inexplicable melancholy surged in her heart. Her originally bright and moving eyes were now shrouded in a faint haze. The confusion in her eyes was like a ship lost in the vast fog, unable to find the direction to move forward. She felt unprecedented confusion and anxiety about her future.
