The Overbearing CEO: I Only Recognize You in This Life

Mu Ziyan sat alone on the sofa, stroking her phone, her eyes revealing a kind of empty confusion. Recalling the conversation between Chen Anqi and Tan Yichen, her heart was shrouded in deep anxiety. Every word of the conversation seemed to indicate that all the plans and calculations were not out of Tan Yichen's control. Chen Anqi's motive was to avenge her father and try to use Tan Yichen's power. She might become a threat target of Tan Yichen in the future.

Although she still cherishes her past with Tan Yichen, the reality is cruel: Yaqi is pregnant with his child. She cannot accept this fact in her heart. It is futile to repair a marriage that has already cracked.

And she might be Tan Yichen's weak spot. She couldn't just sit and wait for fate to decide and become a lamb to be slaughtered. At this moment, she needed to think carefully about her future and was more determined to leave Tan Yichen completely. To cut off all his thoughts, only if she was with Lu Tianming, would Tan Yichen give up completely. This was the only way out she had planned for her future, and it was also the way she had to go.

So he decisively called Lu Tianming. In the afternoon, Mu Ziyan appeared in Lu Tianming's office. Her beautiful face caught Lu Tianming's eyes, making him feel happy and passionate.

Lu Tianming could not help but feel a strong desire to explore, and asked Mu Ziyan with some confusion: "Ziyan, why did you suddenly make such a decision? You know the position of Tan Yichen in your heart..." However, Mu Ziyan raised her head with a resolute attitude and responded frankly: "I have made up my mind to completely draw a line with him and no longer have any relationship with him." Her tone was firm and thorough, deeply touching Lu Tianming's heartstrings. Although he was secretly happy in his heart, he still maintained a calm expression.

The woman sitting in front of him was the woman he had always dreamed of. She had no attachment to Tan Yichen in her heart, and her coming to him at this moment was a rare opportunity for Lu Tianming. So he said solemnly: "My love for you has long been known to everyone. Now you have decided to cut off all contact with Tan Yichen. Otherwise, I will arrange for you to be my secretary, which will definitely stop him from thinking about it." Mu Ziyan looked up, stared at him calmly but firmly, and replied simply: "Okay." Lu Tianming looked at Mu Ziyan's resolute attitude towards Tan Yichen, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed, as if he saw the infinite possibilities for the future of the two.

At dawn the next day, Mu Ziyan got up on time, dressed appropriately, and then drove to the commercial building where Lu Tianming was. Her appearance caused quite a stir in Lu Tianming's company. Because of her marriage to Tan Yichen, her arrival naturally became the focus of everyone's attention. Afterwards, Lu Tianming walked out of the office, stood in front of Mu Ziyan, and introduced her to all employees: "Dear colleagues, today we are fortunate to welcome a new colleague - Ms. Mu Ziyan. Let us welcome her with warm applause." For a moment, everyone began to applaud following Lu Tianming's gesture.

"Ms. Mu Ziyan will officially take over as my secretary." Lu Tianming continued, "If there are any matters in the future, you can communicate with her." As soon as these words came out, the whole company suddenly whispered, and people talked about this new change. However, Lu Tianming was not affected by it. He led Mu Ziyan to her office.

After greeting Lu Tianming, Mu Ziyan's eyes fell on the unique office in front of her. Her sight was attracted by a bunch of lilies on the table. The elegant fragrance made her instantly understand that this was Lu Tianming's careful arrangement. In the fragrance of the flowers, she recalled the flowers that were often used in her home since she married Tan Yichen, and each bouquet was full of love. Although love was hidden deep in her heart, when she stared at the bunch of lilies, the longing surged into her heart like a spring. She still missed him, and that emotion was always with her.

One morning half a month later, Xing Feng stood silently in front of Tan Yichen's desk, staring at Tan Yichen who was concentrating on his work. His eyes wandered, carefully observing Tan Yichen's facial expressions. Suddenly, Tan Yichen raised his head alertly, and asked with a slightly accusatory tone: "Why are you standing here? Why don't you go out and do your own thing?"

Xing Feng stammered, "Um... Brother, do you want a cup of coffee?" Tan Yichen showed obvious impatience and scolded, "Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush." ​​Xing Feng swallowed his saliva, mustered up the courage to close his eyes and said loudly, "You will understand after reading the news on your phone."

Seeing Xing Feng's serious expression, Tan Yichen knew that something important must have happened. He picked up his phone and opened the news app. The eye-catching headline instantly caught his attention. It read: "The new secretary of Lu Group is actually the wife of the president of Shenghui Group. Their past on campus has attracted public attention." The picture below the article was the scene of Yan Yan being proposed to by Lu Tianming after the graduation ceremony. Tan Yichen stood up instantly, threw his phone to the ground, looked at Xing Feng coldly and asked: "Is this how you handle things for me? Why did you tell me about such a big thing now?"

Xing Feng's forehead was covered with sweat as he explained, "Half a month ago, Sister Yan suddenly went to Lu Tianming's company and became his secretary the next day. The two of them only had a working relationship, but Lu Tianming deliberately exposed the news. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was because of his proximity." Tan Yichen swept the documents on the table and angrily yelled, "Why didn't you notify me when she left? What do your people do for a living?"

Xing Feng stepped back slightly out of fear. He kept silent and dared not make any sound.

Tan Yichen sat upright in his chair, trying his best to calm his excitement. He solemnly ordered: "Convene a meeting of all middle-level leaders immediately. I have decided to go all out to fight for the project that competes with Lu's." Originally, he did not want to invest a lot in this project, but now it seems that only by competing with them can he see Yanyan again. He must find out what she is thinking. Is she really going to forget the past? Want to start a new emotional life? The pen body rotated gently in Tan Yichen's hand, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. It only takes 8 months. Yanyan, don't you want to wait a little longer?

When Mu Ziyan arrived at the company, she felt the subtle changes in the eyes of the people around her. The voices of private discussions made her intuition highly sensitive, and she felt that all of this was closely related to her. Suddenly, someone came close to her and whispered to her: "Secretary Mu, just look at the news on your mobile phone and you will know." She responded gratefully and quickly returned to her office.

When she opened her phone, she was shocked by the news. She knew that someone had done this deliberately. At the same time, she was worried that Tan Yichen might have learned the news. She couldn't help but wonder how many other people were affected by this.

Mu Ziyan decided to find Lu Tianming directly to find out the truth. She didn't knock on the door, but went straight into his office, showed him the news on his phone, and asked, "Did you do it?" At this time, Lu Tianming was flipping through the documents, and looked up to see the phone screen that suddenly appeared. He looked up at Ziyan and smiled, and frankly admitted, "I did it."

He stood up, walked closer to Zi Yan and continued, "Your goal is to break away from him and start over. Aren't you coming here to work to sever ties with him? I'm just doing this to assist. I don't think there's anything wrong with it." Lu Tianming's words were full of self-righteousness, but Mu Zi Yan felt a chill after hearing them.

She understood the motivation behind Lu Tianming's deep feelings and knew that he was trying to build a closer relationship through this love. However, she felt uncomfortable and even a little disgusted by this quick success approach. Lu Tianming continued, "Tan Yichen has already launched a challenge. In order to win you back, he decided to compete with us for that project. You see, that project that was originally regarded as insignificant by our President Tan, now he has gone all out for you."

When Mu Ziyan heard this, her eyes revealed a kind of indifference, and she looked directly at Lu Tianming. He said firmly: "If you are determined, we will turn this news into reality and completely extinguish Tan Yichen's expectations." Mu Ziyan slowly sat down and fell into deep thought. Lu Tianming stood behind her and warned her softly and seriously: "Ziyan, this matter is of great importance, you must think twice. Once you make a decision, there is no turning back. If you have made a choice, you will be my dance partner tonight in the most beautiful posture; if you still have feelings for me, you don't have to go." After speaking, he turned and left. Leaving Mu Ziyan alone immersed in deep thought.

After returning home, Mu Ziyan stared at the carefully selected dress, tears silently falling. Her heart was filled with longing and pain. She knew that she still loved Tan Yichen, but there was no place for her in his future. Facing the imminent end of their relationship, the pain in her heart was suffocating. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Chen Anqi walked into the house gently and took a keen look at the atmosphere inside.

"Yanyan." Chen Anqi walked towards her softly and touched her shoulder. Mu Ziyan turned and threw herself into Chen Anqi's arms and burst into tears. Chen Anqi hugged her gently and comforted her softly. Then, she helped Mu Ziyan sit on the bed and gently stroked the gorgeous dress. "This dress is so beautiful. If you wear it tonight, you will be dazzling." Mu Ziyan looked up at Chen Anqi with confusion in her eyes: "Sister-in-law, how should I choose?"

Chen Anqi smiled and replied, "Your heart has made a choice, hasn't it? I understand that it is difficult for both of you to let go of the past, but he has never given up on Yaqi's child. Are you willing to continue to struggle in this emotional gap?" Mu Ziyan shook her head and said, "Even if he abandons Yaqi and the child, I will not look back. He betrayed our marriage, which is unforgivable." Her tone was firm and resolute. Chen Anqi patted her hands lightly and then walked out of the room...

Mu Ziyan resolutely wiped away the wet tears, walked to the clean bathroom, turned on the faucet, and washed her face. After returning, she put on the eye-catching dress, sat in front of the exquisite dressing table, and began to dress herself up carefully. Staring at the still beautiful self in the mirror, she slightly raised the corners of her lips, outlining a confident smile. Then, she picked up her handbag and stepped out of the door gracefully.
