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

Jiang Xiyan sneered and said in a sarcastic tone: "Mr. Mu, your love words sound nice, but who knows how long they can last? Love is something that cannot be maintained for long by words."

Mu Hanchen's face darkened and he glared at Jiang Xiyan: "Boss Jiang, are you questioning my sincerity?"

Jiang Xiyan shrugged and crossed his arms over his chest: "Sincerity? Humph, sincerity is the most fickle thing in this world. Why does President Mu think he can always be consistent?"

Mu Hanchen gritted his teeth and retorted, "My feelings for Jingyan are beyond doubt, but you, Mr. Jiang, are making sarcastic remarks here. Are you jealous?"

Jiang Xiyan's eyes flashed with a hint of panic, but he quickly regained his composure and taunted, "Jealous? President Mu is really good at flattering himself. I'm just telling the truth."

Shen Jingyan looked at the two people arguing with each other and said anxiously: "Stop arguing. What's the point of arguing like this?"

Jiang Xiyan glanced at Shen Jingyan and said, "Miss Shen, don't be fooled by some people's sweet words. It will be too late to cry then."

Mu Hanchen shouted angrily: "Jiang Xiyan, don't go too far!"

Jiang Xiyan did not back down and hit back, "Excessive? President Mu, the real excessive thing is probably your meddling."

At this moment, the scene fell into extreme tension and embarrassment.

Shen Jingyan looked at the two people who were on edge, took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and said, "Okay, let's not argue about this anymore. Why don't we talk about work? The project we've been working on recently hasn't been going smoothly. What do you think?"

Mu Hanchen's brows were still furrowed, but he still followed Shen Jingyan's words and said, "This project is indeed a bit tricky, mainly because we encountered some technical difficulties."

Jiang Xiyan also temporarily put aside his hostility towards Mu Hanchen and responded: "Technical problems can be solved by finding a professional team, but the key is to keep up with the allocation of funds."

Shen Jingyan nodded and analyzed seriously: "I can communicate with the financial department again to see if we can get more budget. But time is tight, we have to come up with a solution as soon as possible."

Mu Hanchen continued, "I think we can start by optimizing the process, improving work efficiency, and saving some unnecessary expenses."

Jiang Xiyan thought for a moment and said, "The deployment of personnel also needs to be replanned. Putting the right people in the right positions can maximize their effectiveness."

The three of them chatted with each other, gradually shifting their attention to the discussion of work, and the atmosphere was no longer as tense as before.

After discussing work, the atmosphere finally eased a little. Mu Hanchen slowly turned his head and looked at Shen Jingyan. His eyes became affectionate and focused again, full of endless tenderness and attachment. He slowly said: "Jingyan, no matter how busy and tired I am at work, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles I encounter, my feelings for you are as solid as a rock and will never change. You are the light of hope in my tired life, and my unattainable but extremely yearning dream. I really can't live without you. If I lose you, my world will fall into endless darkness and lose all color and meaning."

When Jiang Xiyan heard this, the jealousy in his heart instantly erupted like a volcano, and he angrily said, "Mu Hanchen, can you please stop saying these disgusting things here! It's working time now, and you should focus on work. Don't confuse public and private matters and bring personal feelings into the workplace!"

Mu Hanchen did not back down and fought back: "Jiang Xiyan, my feelings for Jingyan are from the bottom of my heart and are sincere. You are just jealous that I can bravely express my love to Jingyan, while you can only be angry secretly!"

Jiang Xiyan snorted coldly, his face full of disdain: "Jealous? Don't be so self-righteous! I just simply can't stand your clinging and pestering attitude. You have no manners at all!"

Shen Jingyan was upset by the quarrel between the two. She frowned and said loudly, "Mr. Mu! Let's put aside the feelings first. Look at this beach. The weather is fine and the blue sea and blue sky are connected. What a beautiful scenery!"

Mu Hanchen was slightly stunned, then came back to his senses and said, "Jingyan, even in this beautiful scenery, you are still the only focus in my eyes. Everything in the world is eclipsed in my eyes, only you are shining and illuminating my whole world."

Jiang Xiyan gritted his teeth in anger, his cheeks puffed up, and said, "Mu Hanchen, can you stop pestering me like this? You keep pestering me endlessly, it's so annoying!"

Shen Jingyan shook her head helplessly, her face full of helplessness and fatigue, and said: "You two stop arguing, why don't you just enjoy this rare scenery? Isn't the tranquility and beauty at this moment worth our careful experience?"

Mu Hanchen looked at Shen Jingyan, his eyes full of tenderness, and said gently: "Jingyan, although this scenery is beautiful, in my heart, it is not even one ten-thousandth of you. Your beauty, kindness and intelligence are incomparable to any other beautiful scenery in this world."

Jiang Xiyan couldn't help but sneer, "You are exaggerating! It's just nonsense! How can it be as exaggerated as you say!"

Shen Jingyan took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and said, "Okay, okay, let's not argue about this anymore. Why not just quietly enjoy this moment of peace and let your mind rest for a while."

Mu Hanchen nodded and said obediently: "Okay, Jingyan, I'll listen to you. As long as it's what you say, I'm willing to do it."

Jiang Xiyan rolled his eyes at Mu Hanchen and stopped talking, but his eyes were still full of dissatisfaction and hostility.

The three of them were silent for a while, and the gentle sea breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Shen Jingyan suddenly spoke with a hint of emotion in her voice: "In fact, in front of such a beautiful scenery, many troubles seem insignificant. The troubles in life seem so small in front of the magnificence of nature."

Mu Hanchen continued, his tone firm and persistent: "Jingyan, as long as you are by my side, my world will be full of sunshine, and everything will become extremely beautiful. Even if there is a storm, I can remain calm."

Jiang Xiyan couldn't hold it in any longer and said, "Here you go again. I really can't stand you! You just say these sweet words all day long. They are so flashy and superficial!"

Shen Jingyan raised her voice again, with obvious anger in her voice: "Please, can you stop making noise! ​​Let my ears be quiet for a while!"

Mu Hanchen seemed not to hear Shen Jingyan's anger, and continued to say affectionately: "Jingyan, I am willing to pick the brightest star in the night sky for you, willing to accompany you through every spring, summer, autumn and winter, and witness every sunrise and sunset. My heart is like a castle open to you, only for you to stay."

Shen Jingyan looked helpless and didn't know how to respond.

Mu Hanchen continued to confess: "In my heart, you are the flower that never fades, the treasure that I will always protect. Even if time passes, my love for you will never change."

At this time, Jiang Xiyan finally couldn't bear it anymore. His face was terribly gloomy and he shouted angrily: "Mu Hanchen, are you done yet!" After that, he turned and left angrily, and the sand under his feet was splashed by him.

Shen Jingyan looked at Jiang Xiyan's departing back, feeling mixed emotions.

Mu Hanchen didn't seem to care about Jiang Xiyan's departure. He still looked at Shen Jingyan affectionately and said, "Jingyan, don't worry about him. You are the only one in my world."

Shen Jingyan frowned and said, "Boss Mu, please don't be like this. This makes me very embarrassed."

Mu Hanchen gently held Shen Jingyan's hand and said, "Jingyan, give me a chance, let me enter your world."

Shen Jingyan broke free from his hand and said, "Mr. Mu, I just want to be alone now." After that, she turned and left.

Only Mu Hanchen was left standing alone on the beach, looking in the direction the two had left, his eyes full of loss.

Shen Jingyan quickly caught up with Jiang Xiyan's hurried footsteps and said in a tender voice: "Xiyan, are you angry?"

Jiang Xiyan stopped, his face gloomy, and said coldly: "Why should I be angry? I'm just disgusted by that guy's endless behavior."

Shen Jingyan gently held Jiang Xiyan's hand, her eyes firm and fiery, and said: "Xiyan, I am 24 years old now, no longer a naive child. You know that I like you, and this feeling has never changed. I want to know, what about you? In your heart, what do you think of me?"

Shen Jingyan's voice trembled slightly, and she asked anxiously, "Jiang Xiyan, after all these years, don't you have any special feelings for me? Every time I approach you, you deliberately keep your distance. Why?"

Jiang Xiyan turned his head away, his eyes dodging, and said in a low voice: "Jingyan, don't force me."

Shen Jingyan's eyes were red, tears welling up in them: "I forced you? I just want an answer, even if it's a rejection, it's better than this unclear answer!"

Jiang Xiyan bit his lip, took a deep breath and said, "Jingyan, I'm afraid I can't give you the happiness you want."

Shen Jingyan angrily shook off his hand: "How do you know what kind of happiness I want? You have never really tried to understand me!"

Shen Jingyan looked straight at Jiang Xiyan, her eyes red, her voice full of grievance and pain: "Do you think I am an insignificant existence in your heart? I have been self-indulgent for so long. I confessed to you before, and you said that your brother liked me. Now he doesn't like me anymore. I just want to know if you have feelings for me. Why can't you give me an answer? Even if it is a rejection, it is better than letting me keep guessing, waiting, and suffering like this! What are you worried about?"

Jiang Xiyan looked at Shen Jingyan, his eyes full of guilt and heartache, and said slowly: "Jingyan, I'm really sorry for making you suffer so much. You should know that in my heart, you have never been dispensable. All this time, I have been avoiding the sincerity in my heart for you. I am a coward."

Tears welled up in Shen Jingyan's eyes, and she choked up and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did you make me wait so long?"

Jiang Xiyan took a deep breath and continued, "I have too many concerns. I am afraid that I don't have enough ability to give you the happiness you want. I am worried that our relationship will become fragile when facing various problems in real life. I am afraid that those trivial things will wear away the beauty between us, and I am afraid that I can't make you happy all the time."
