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

On Lin Xi's pretty face, a bright and happy smile bloomed like the warm spring sun. She nodded slightly and said softly, "Well, dear, the time we spent together was really beautiful and happy. He was always caring and considerate to me, and his temperament was gentle and tender." As Lin Xi spoke, her face, which had been immersed in sweetness, suddenly wrinkled slightly, like ripples on the surface of a lake blown by a breeze.

She bit her lower lip lightly, frowned slightly, and said in a slightly low voice: "However, there is now an insurmountable gap before us - my stubborn father actually arranged a marriage for me secretly without my knowledge, and found a so-called fiancé for me. What's more troublesome is that this ridiculous engagement has not been cancelled yet." At this point, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh deeply, and a hint of helplessness revealed in her beautiful eyes that could not be concealed.

Shen Jingyan, who was standing by, frowned upon hearing this, and asked anxiously with a worried look on her face, "How could this be? This is really unexpected! So what are you going to do next?"

Lin Xi raised her head and looked into the distance. After a long sigh, she slowly retracted her gaze to Shen Jingyan and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I am at a loss as to how to proceed in the future. When I first heard the news, I almost collapsed in despair. On the day of the wedding, when no one was paying attention, I resolutely fled from the place that suffocated me. Then I eloped here with my beloved without hesitation..."

Shen Jingyan stood up slowly, her eyes slowly sweeping over this exquisite and unique villa. This place is still a long drive from M City, and its location is relatively remote. However, it is amazing that despite the remote location, the owner here has relied on endless ingenuity and love to turn this place into a dream home full of warmth and romance.

Walking into the villa, Shen Jingyan was attracted by the carefully designed layout in front of her. From the soft and comfortable sofa to the colorful curtains, every detail exudes a warm atmosphere; the art paintings hanging on the wall add a touch of elegance. She couldn't help but stop and savor this rare tranquility and beauty.

Looking at all this, Shen Jingyan's heart was filled with a thousand emotions. She frowned slightly and murmured softly: "Xixi, I have to say, you are so brave. You can make such a resolute choice for love."

Hearing her friend's words, Lin Xi showed a bitter smile on her face. She shook her head gently, sighed helplessly, and responded: "Brave? Maybe I'm just forced into a corner. To be honest, I don't know how long we can hide like this. But... I really can't give up my feelings for Ye Chen, so no matter what, I don't want to give up on him easily."

Shen Jingyan walked towards the huge window with light and slow steps, like a feather blown by the breeze. She crossed her arms elegantly in front of her chest, and her graceful figure was like a beautiful painting. Outside the window, the bustling scene of the city was in full view, with busy traffic and flashing neon lights, but this lively scene could not attract her attention. Her deep and bright eyes were staring into the distance at this moment, as if she saw another world through the hustle and bustle in front of her.

Thoughts surged into her mind like a tide, and she couldn't help but think of her love that was full of helplessness and pain. The sweetness and vows of the past have now become a thing of the past, leaving only scars and endless sighs. She shook her head gently, thinking secretly in her heart, wondering if she could have the courage to pursue true love regardless of everything.

At this moment, a crisp cell phone ring broke the silence in the room. Lin Xi's already tense nerves were instantly stretched to the extreme by this sudden sound. She looked at the cell phone on the table in horror. The moment the screen lit up, her face instantly became paler than paper.

"Yes...it's my father's assistant who called." Lin Xi's voice trembled violently, as if a candle in the wind could go out at any time.

Seeing this, Shen Jingyan hurriedly walked to Lin Xi's side, stretched out her hands without hesitation and tightly held her slightly cold and trembling hands, trying to give her a little warmth and strength. Feeling the warmth from her friend's palm, Lin Xi calmed down a little, took a deep breath, and pressed the answer button with her still trembling fingers.

"Hello." Lin Xi's voice was so soft that only she could hear it.

An extremely cold voice came from the other end of the phone, like a biting cold wind in the cold winter: "Ms. Lin, the chairman asked me to tell you that if you don't return to the company immediately, he will use all possible means to find you and Mr. Ye. Please don't have any fluke mentality and think you can hide forever."

Hearing this, Lin Xi bit her lips tightly to prevent tears from flowing out. However, despite her fear and anxiety, she still raised her chin stubbornly and responded without flinching: "I will never go back! I love Ye Chen, I must be with him!"

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone with a crisp "pop" sound, as if she had used up all her strength. At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world had quieted down, with only the echo of the phone being hung up still echoing in the air. However, in just a moment, tears burst out of her eyes like a flood that broke through the dam and could no longer be suppressed.

At this moment, Shen Jingyan quickly opened her arms and hugged Lin Xi tightly. She gently patted Lin Xi's back, like coaxing a wounded child, and whispered softly: "Don't be afraid, Xixi. No matter what happens, we will face it together, and there will definitely be a way to solve the problem."

Lin Xi, like a frightened little deer, leaned on Shen Jingyan's shoulder, her body trembling slightly, and cried inconsolably: "What should I do? I really don't want to lose Ye Chen like this! Without him, my world will become dark..."

Hearing this, Shen Jingyan shook Lin Xi's hand vigorously, stared at her with an extremely firm look, and said in a sonorous and powerful tone: "Xixi, please believe in Ye Chen's feelings for you. You know, since he can resolutely choose to elope with you, it means that he has made full preparations to face all difficulties and challenges. Moreover, I firmly believe that he will never let you suffer any harm!"

After hearing this, Lin Xi raised her head and looked at Shen Jingyan's gentle yet resolute face with tearful eyes. She was suddenly moved beyond words. She gently said, "Yeah." Then she buried her head in Shen Jingyan's arms again, feeling the warmth and strength from her friend.

After a while, Lin Xi calmed down a little, slowly left Shen Jingyan's arms, stared at her with red and swollen eyes, and said gratefully: "Jingyan, thank you for always being by my side. Whenever I feel helpless and confused, as long as I think of you supporting and encouraging me, I will feel very at ease and warm in my heart."

The corners of Shen Jingyan's mouth rose slightly, revealing a slightly bitter smile: "Haha, what a coincidence, in fact, what I am facing now is no different from you!" Her gaze slowly turned to Lin Xi, and an indescribable complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Hearing this, Lin Xi couldn't help but frown slightly, with a surge of concern in her heart, and asked softly: "What's the matter? Have you also encountered any difficult problems?"

Shen Jingyan slowly lowered her head, as if she was afraid that others would see through the secret deep in her heart, and said in a voice so low that almost only she could hear it: "Actually... there has always been a shadow of a person hidden in my heart, and that person is Jiang Xiyan!" Before she finished speaking, she raised her head, and her beautiful eyes were filled with endless sadness at this moment.

Lin Xi looked at Shen Jingyan in surprise. She had never expected her to say such a thing, and hurriedly asked, "If that's the case, then why did you choose to marry Lin Yu?" This question was like a huge rock pressing on her heart, making her eager to get the answer.

Shen Jingyan sighed deeply, shook her head helplessly and explained: "Alas... it's because I don't want to see Jiang Xiyan and Xia Qingcheng quarreling and suffering all day because of me! So, in order to escape this heartbreaking situation, I decided to marry Lin Yu. Who would have thought that Jiang Xiyan actually divorced Xia Qingcheng. And just some time ago, some unexpected things happened. After these things, I suddenly realized that the person I really loved was Jiang Xiyan all the time!" After saying this, Shen Jingyan's tears were already welling up in her eyes, as if they would burst out at any time.

Lin Xi held Shen Jingyan's hand distressedly and asked anxiously: "Does Lin Yu know all the reasons behind this? Did he embarrass you because of this?"

"Yes, he is no longer the gentle and elegant man he used to be. All the kindness he showed to me before was a disguise. He is violent. Being with him, my heart is filled with depression and pain, so I ran away from him!" Shen Jingyan closed her eyes in pain.

Lin Xi stared at Shen Jingyan with a face full of pity, stretched out his right hand, gently patted her slightly pale hand, and said softly: "Jingyan, what are you going to do now? Are you going to hide from Lin Yu like this?"

Shen Jingyan's eyes instantly became resolute, as firm as a rock. She bit her lower lip and responded firmly, "I am determined to divorce him so that he can find his own true happiness!"
