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

In the study, the light was dim and depressing. Jiang Xiyan looked cold and said sarcastically, "Oh, even if you don't say it, I know that your marriage with Lin Yu is just in name only."

Shen Jingyan's face turned pale instantly, and her body stood there stiffly. This secret was exposed, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment. The atmosphere in the study seemed to be frozen, so heavy that it made people breathless.

Shen Jingyan bit her lower lip tightly, trying to calm herself down. The old wooden bookshelf was filled with books, and the dust on the spines was faintly visible under the dim light. The air was filled with the smell of old books and the faint scent of ink, which made her feel even more depressed. She looked at Jiang Xiyan and said slowly: "Jiang Xiyan, why are you forcing me?"

Jiang Xiyan slowly picked up a bottle of red wine, opened the cork gracefully, and then slowly poured the dark red liquid into a transparent goblet. As the wine flowed, a mellow aroma of wine spread.

He gently shook the wine glass in his hand, allowing the red wine to fully contact the air and emit a richer aroma. Then, he slightly narrowed his narrow and deep eyes, like a hunting hawk, and his sharp gaze was fixed on Shen Jingyan in front of him.

His brows were slightly furrowed, forming a shallow groove, as if silently telling of the dissatisfaction and entanglement in his heart. He opened his thin lips and said coldly: "I am not forcing you, but you took the initiative to come to me. I believe you know very well that no one can help you except me."

Hearing this, Shen Jingyan's eyes dimmed instantly, with a hint of despair flashing through them. That hint of despair was like a faint flame flickering in the dark night sky, so small and fragile that it seemed as if a breeze could blow it out.

She rolled her eyes helplessly, her gaze wandering around the spacious study. Finally, her sight stopped at the tall bookshelves filled with all kinds of books. These books were neatly arranged and stood there quietly, like a group of silent witnesses, silently watching everything happening before their eyes, and also witnessing her helplessness and struggle at the moment.

Shen Jingyan bit her lip and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Why...why do you have to do this? Is it just because you hate Lin Yu?"

Jiang Xiyan sneered, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a mocking arc. His eyes flashed with complex light, anger, jealousy, and a trace of barely perceptible pain. "Hate? No, I just want you to completely leave Lin Yu and come back to me!"

Shen Jingyan shook her head, her hair fluttering gently in the dim light, like catkins in the wind, weak and helpless. "You don't understand my feelings at all. Lin Yu needs me now, I can't just ignore him."

Jiang Xiyan's expression became complicated. "You care about him so much," he clenched his fists tightly, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force. At this moment, the temperature in the study seemed to have dropped to freezing point. "Then have you ever thought that I need you too."

Jiang Xiyan slowly approached Shen Jingyan, put his hands on the wall, and trapped her in his arms. His breath rushed to her face, bringing a strong sense of oppression. The air in the study seemed to solidify. "I'm not kidding, Shen Jingyan, I need you, and you can only belong to me."

Shen Jingyan pushed Jiang Xiyan away with force, her eyes full of resistance. "Jiang Xiyan, change the conditions!"

"I don't ask for anything else except this." Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan with a firm look in his eyes, his chin slightly raised, revealing a kind of stubbornness and domineering. Under the light, his figure looked particularly tall. "Shen Jingyan, you have no choice."

Jiang Xiyan leaned slightly closer to Shen Jingyan, and his warm breath gently blew into her ears. The dim light in the study sprinkled on the two of them, as if covering them with a layer of ambiguous veil. Outside the window, the night was as dark as ink, and occasionally a few breezes gently blew the curtains, adding a sense of mystery to the ambiguous atmosphere. "Jingyan, you are like the bright stars in the dark night, making people unable to take their eyes off, and like the delicate and beautiful roses, so beautiful that it makes people tremble."

Shen Jingyan subconsciously shrank back and turned her face away. "Jiang Xiyan, stop talking about this."

Jiang Xiyan slowly stretched out his slender and powerful hand, gently grasped Shen Jingyan's delicate chin, and with a little force, gently turned her beautiful face towards him. At this moment, the air around them seemed to become heavy, filled with a faint scent of ink and the unique smell of old books, which shuttled and danced between the two of them like smart elves, as if they were also deeply intoxicated by this ambiguous moment.

"Every frown and every smile of yours are like a mysterious and powerful spell, deeply imprinted in my heart. No matter how I struggle, I cannot escape the bondage of this emotion, and... I don't want to escape at all." Jiang Xiyan's eyes were like burning flames, staring at the beauty in front of him, and affectionately telling the truest feelings in his heart.

However, facing such a passionate confession, Shen Jingyan's face showed a trace of panic and determination. She turned her head away suddenly, avoiding Jiang Xiyan's burning gaze, and shouted loudly: "Stop talking!"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiyan's eyes dimmed instantly, like a star that suddenly went out in the night sky. He stared at Shen Jingyan silently, and after a long silence, he spoke again: "Okay, since you have made up your mind and rejected me so firmly, I will not pester you anymore. However, please believe me, I will still keep my promise to you and do my best to save Lin Yu."

"I just hope you can do what you say!" Shen Jingyan bit her lip and responded firmly.

Jiang Xiyan took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging emotions in his heart, and then said coldly: "I will make sure he recovers safely, but when he is fully recovered, I hope you can leave him completely! Never have anything to do with him again!" After saying this, Jiang Xiyan turned and left, leaving Shen Jingyan standing there alone, looking at his back getting farther and farther away, with mixed feelings in her heart.

In the study, the light is dim and depressing, and the old wooden bookshelf exudes a faint old smell, as if telling the story of the years. Outside the window, the night is like ink, thick as ink that cannot be dissolved, so deep that it makes people feel suffocated. Occasionally, a few breezes gently blow the curtains, and the curtains are like a restless soul, dancing in the darkness, as if telling the quietness and restlessness of the night.

"This is impossible!" Shen Jingyan's body trembled violently, as if she was hit by a sudden gust of wind. She was as weak and helpless as a flower swaying in the wind. Her hands were tightly clasped and trembling slightly, trying her best to restrain the emotions in her heart that were like surging waves. Her delicate face was stained with a faint blush because of nervousness and excitement, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, making her look even more charming.

Jiang Xiyan's eyes were fixed on Shen Jingyan, and there was a blazing fire in his eyes. He took a step forward and grabbed her hand fiercely, with such force that he seemed to crush her hand. "Shen Jingyan, didn't you love me to death in the beginning? Why don't you love me anymore because of Lin Yu?" His voice was full of questioning and unwillingness, like the roar of a wounded beast.

The atmosphere in the study seemed frozen, making it hard to breathe. The air was filled with tension and depression, mixed with the smell of old books and the faint scent of ink, making people feel even more depressed.

"Jiang Xiyan, you are playing with fire!" Shen Jingyan's eyes flashed with anger and warning. She bit her lower lip tightly, almost biting it to bleed. Although the voice was not loud, it carried a hint of anger and warning that was difficult to conceal. However, only she knew how many complicated emotions were hidden behind this scolding. She was struggling in her heart. On the one hand, she was attracted to Jiang Xiyan, which was irresistible, and on the other hand, she felt responsible and guilty towards Lin Yu.

Jiang Xiyan, who was standing opposite, raised his lips slightly, outlining an extremely evil smile. That smile seemed to be able to penetrate people's souls, making people involuntarily intoxicated by it. His deep eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky, flashing with deep affection and fiery light. At this time, the soft light just fell on his handsome face, casting charming light and shadow, making his already three-dimensional facial features appear even deeper and more mysterious.

The night outside the window was getting darker and darker, like a huge black hole that was about to swallow everything in. The night wind that quietly seeped into the study through the cracks in the window brought a hint of coolness, blowing Shen Jingyan's hair gently.

"Playing with fire?" Jiang Xiyan whispered softly, his voice was low and magnetic, as if telling a touching story. He slowly took a step forward, closing the distance between him and Shen Jingyan. He exuded a powerful aura that was irresistible. "I am just bravely pursuing what I desire in my heart." His eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him who made his heart beat, and his tone was as firm as steel, without the slightest intention of wavering.

"Jiang Xiyan, do you really love me?" Shen Jingyan's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of doubts and expectations. She longed to hear Jiang Xiyan's affirmative answer, but she was afraid that this was just a beautiful dream.

"Do I even need to ask this?" Jiang Xiyan turned around and looked at Shen Jingyan with a fiery gaze. His eyes were full of affection and determination, as if he was announcing his love to the world. "Shen Jingyan, I love you. I have never felt this way for anyone else." His voice carried an unquestionable power that made it impossible for people to doubt his sincerity.
