The CEO's wife is reborn and vows to pay for her crimes in blood.

Chapter 84 Guilty Heart

"Xiaoxiao, that's not what I meant!" Xue Bai quickly explained.

"Alright, since there's nothing seriously wrong, I'm going to work now."

Ye Xiaoxiao covered her ears with her hands and walked quickly toward Chu Xinglan and Gu Ye.

"Boss, I'm going to work now."

Ye Xiaoxiao then waved goodbye to Chu Xinglan.

"No, Xiaoxiao, don't abandon me!" Chu Xinglan tried to pull Ye Xiaoxiao back, but couldn't.

"Boss, I'll head to the company now," Xue Bai said to Gu Ye, then quickly chased after Ye Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, wait for me."

"See? They all don't care about you, only I care about you."

Gu Ye, who was holding Chu Xinglan, smiled and said.

"With you here, who would dare to control me?" Chu Xinglan muttered discontentedly.

She then realized that many people were watching them along the way, and she buried her face in Gu Ye's arms in embarrassment.

"Hurry up and go."

"What did you say? I didn't hear you." Gu Ye pretended not to hear.

"Hurry up and go back. Do you want to be a rare animal?"

Chu Xinglan anxiously pounded Gu Ye's chest with her little fist.

"Yes, my little princess!" Gu Ye smiled and quickened his pace.

Chu Xinglan blushed and her heart raced at his words.

When did he become so humorous and witty?

Gu Ye took Chu Xinglan home and immediately carried her to bed.

"I'm home, you can go now." Chu Xinglan sat up from the bed.

But Gu Ye just looked at her without making any move.

A lone man and a lone woman alone in a room?!

Suddenly, Chu Xinglan became nervous.

"Gu, Gu Ye, you're not planning to do something, are you?"

"What are you thinking about with that little head of yours?" Gu Ye gently tapped her forehead with his finger and laughed.

Chu Xinglan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing him say that.

It turns out I was overthinking things.

"You don't really want me to do something to you, do you?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Ye acted out of the ordinary and suddenly approached Chu Xinglan in an ambiguous tone.

Chu Xinglan's heart raced, and she quickly covered herself up tightly with the blanket.

"No, no, you're overthinking it. You told me not to overthink, so you shouldn't overthink either. You should go now, I need to rest."

Chu Xinglan shoved Gu Ye.

Gu Ye gripped her hand tightly, and suddenly pulled her into a tight embrace.

"Gu Ye!" Chu Xinglan struggled to escape from Gu Ye's embrace.

"Don't move, let me hold you tight." Gu Ye's voice was hoarse.

Chu Xinglan really didn't dare to move anymore; she seemed to feel Gu Ye's body trembling.

"Gu Ye?!" She hadn't expected him to care about her so much. His concern for her was genuine, and his love for her was real.

If he loved her, why was he so indifferent to her in his past life? Why did he never tell her that he actually loved her?

Is it because she was reborn that he developed different feelings for her? If so, what is the point? Wasn't her goal in this second life to seek revenge? Or was it to rekindle her past romance with Gu Ye? But is rekindling that romance really possible?

"Lanlan, thank goodness you're still alive, otherwise I really don't know how I would go on living," Gu Ye said softly, gently stroking the back of her head with his palm.

"Gu Ye, actually I should thank you. When I was about to die, you were like a god descending to earth, pulling me back from the brink of death." Chu Xinglan's hand was also around Gu Ye's neck, and she smiled.

"If only I were your guardian angel, I would never let you suffer even the slightest harm."

Gu Ye pulled Chu Xinglan out of his arms and stared intently at her.

Chu Xinglan felt Gu Ye's burning gaze and suddenly panicked. She hurriedly pushed Gu Ye away: "You should leave quickly, I really need to rest."

"Okay, then you get some rest. I'll come see you again tonight," Gu Ye said gently.

Chu Xinglan hadn't expected Gu Ye to become so easy to talk to.

"Don't come looking for me tonight either. I'm fine. Besides, Xiaoxiao is at home. She'll take care of me after get off work," Chu Xinglan said hurriedly.

"You hate seeing me that much?" Gu Ye's tone turned serious.

Is he angry?

"It's not that I hate you, it's just that you can't come."

Having him around is just too much pressure.

"It's good that you don't hate me. I'll go to the company now. Call me if you need anything." Gu Ye gently pinched Chu Xinglan's nose.

"Definitely!" Chu Xinglan smiled. She would never call him, not even if it meant her death.

"Sister Jin, I didn't expect Ye Xiaoxiao to be so lucky. She's completely unharmed. But Secretary Chu broke her leg, and the boss had to carry her to the hospital himself."

Xiaolin told Sister Jin what she had heard.

"Mr. Gu was carrying Secretary Chu, but what about Ye Xiaoxiao? Who carried her to the hospital?" Sister Jin asked curiously.

"I heard that Assistant Xue carried it over," Xiao Lin added.

"President Gu is hugging Secretary Chu, and Assistant Xue is hugging Ye Xiaoxiao?" Sister Jin felt that there was something wrong with this, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was.

"It's nothing. It was probably an emergency. The boss and Assistant Xue didn't care about anything else. They just grabbed one of them and rushed to rescue them," Xiao Lin explained.

Sister Jin thought what she said made sense; it couldn't be completely untenable. How could President Gu hug Secretary Chu? She was clearly Assistant Xue's girlfriend.

"Sister Jin, I heard that the boss is investigating the cause of the accident. Will he find out about us?" Xiao Lin asked worriedly.

After all, it's the first time doing something wrong, especially something that could lead to murder, so it's natural to feel nervous and uneasy.

"What are you afraid of? The boss will definitely not be able to find out about us. After all, we did it perfectly." Sister Jin was actually a little guilty, but she still held onto a glimmer of hope.

After all, she was certain that the surveillance cameras there were broken, which is why she acted so recklessly.

Hearing Sister Jin say that, Xiao Lin felt a little relieved.

Just then, a voice came over the company's loudspeaker.

"Please have Minister Jin and Assistant Kobayashi go to the president's office."

Feeling guilty, Sister Jin and Xiao Lin suddenly had a jolt and panicked.

"Jin, Sister Jin..."

"I heard you, please stop calling me that." Sister Jin was flustered.

"No, Sister Jin, why did the president suddenly call us over at this time? Could it be that he found out something?" Xiao Lin was extremely uneasy.

Sister Jin was also terrified at this moment, but she quickly calmed down.

"What's the panic? The boss can't possibly know it was us. Maybe he has something else to ask us to do."

"Is that so?" Kobayashi wasn't sure.

"Even if it's not true, it has to be true. No matter what the boss wants to say, we have to insist that this has nothing to do with us. Remember this, if this is found out, we're all finished."
