The Female CEO Falls in Love with Me

Yurong's attitude and her words put tremendous pressure on Yu Xiaodi, leaving her unsure of what to say. She could only bow her head and take another sip of water to calm down and muster some courage.

Li Yan glanced at the three of them before stepping in between them.

"Yurong, things aren't what you think..."

"Then what are they?" Yurong interrupted, chuckling coldly. "You're not going to tell me that I'm seeing things, are you?"

"Of course not. Because of tonight's events, Xiaodi was deeply affected. She didn't go home, nor did she return to the school dormitory. I couldn't reach her by phone, and I was worried something might happen to her. After a long search, I found her drinking alone at the place where we first met, not far from here... It's already so late, I can't just leave her alone, so I brought her back to stay the night. Of course, I could take her to a hotel, but I thought you'd been equally affected tonight, and I wanted to come back to see you. Plus, you've met twice before..."

"Affected? How was I affected? I'm perfectly fine!" Yurong certainly wouldn't admit to that.

Yu Xiaodi felt a bit disappointed because Li Yan wasn't doing what she'd imagined—confronting Yurong—but rather just wanted to bring her back to rest for the night.

Nevertheless, she remained optimistic. After all, it's only her freshman year, so she couldn't possibly marry him right away. Even if he wasn't joking, time is needed to test things out. How could he quickly divorce Yurong for her?

"You've already met at the concert hall earlier, and you recognized each other last time, so no need for further introduction. What I want to clarify is that I just told Xiaodi about our relationship. Before this, she knew I had a wife but didn't know it was you, nor that I lived here."

Upon hearing this, Yurong looked at Yu Xiaodi and sarcastically said, "Clinging on even when you know he has a wife? Now, who would be the homewrecker here?"

After meeting her, Yu Xiaodi's nervousness had gradually dissipated, and she began returning to her normal state. In matters of love, she is the type who moves forward boldly, so how could she admit defeat? Seeing Yurong directing her attack at herself, she immediately took the conversation forward.

"Miss Zhang, you're indeed sharp. I thought you were speaking for Teacher Wen just now, but it turns out my words hit you where it hurts. That's right, you're smug about it now; you got lucky by meeting Li Yan first and marrying him. I don't know much about your relationship, but I just want you to ask yourself: Are you really good to Li Yan? Do you treat him as your husband?"

Yurong furrowed her brows slightly. Ask herself? For the past few months, everyone has just been taking care of their own concerns; if not for the changes in the last month or two... she really wouldn't care about Li Yan's affairs!

"What's it to you? Who are you?"

Her grumpy retort made Yu Xiaodi laugh. "So, you're not good to him, are you? Who am I? Who do you think I am? Am I not here to compete for your husband? If you were good to him, how would I get a chance? Precisely because you're not treating him well, your relationship isn't strong, I seized my opportunity!"

"Shameless!"

"Say whatever you like! Ever since I met him, I've felt he is the best man in the world!" (Li Yan was speechless, as someone seemed eager to torture him then.) "And he's quite lonely, going alone to watch a movie on weekends. Is that behavior of a bachelor or a married man? Because he doesn't seem like someone who has a wife in those aspects, I was deeply drawn to him and began to pursue him!"

Yu Xiaodi's previous words touched Yurong slightly. In the past, although she and Li Yan lived under the same roof, each lived their own life, and he indeed didn't seem like someone married—just like in the company where no one believed he was married.

Her bold words afterward surprised both Yurong and Yue Yao. Although there's only a few years' age difference between them, it triggered a sense of 'how proactive young women are nowadays.'

Yurong couldn't resist glancing at Li Yan, who was quietly observing their argument, momentarily thinking he had the charm to attract young women. It turned out they pursued him! But she forgot that having young women chase someone highlights a different level of charm.

Li Yan watched as they engaged in a war of words and decided to stay silent, letting them speak their minds. In situations like this, picking a side wouldn't help matters; instead, their debate might clarify the situation more.

During the argument, Yu Xiaodi gained the upper hand over Yurong, growing more confident when she saw Li Yan not interjecting. Despite being on Yurong's turf, initially feeling defensive due to being an outsider and guilty, she began to stand tall and proud.

But Yurong, being a CEO, despite lacking full understanding of emotions and this being her first negotiation with a rival in love, had extensive experience in business negotiations. Thus, upon realizing she was at a disadvantage, it fueled her resolve, prompting her to calm down immediately.

With a clear mind, she started to refute logically.

"You seem to be making sense, 'love' can be a big pretext to avoid responsibilities, but do you truly love him? What can you offer him beyond entertainment and fun? Little girl, how old are you? What year are you in? Can you give him a family? Do you know the situation of his family? Can you protect, care for, and indulge him?" (Requesting a monthly pass, subscription support...)
