"Idiot." Gu Annan furrowed his brow, kissing her gently over and over. "Do you really think I would leave you for such a reason? You’re not wrong, I am. I was late that day."
"But what you said that day..."
"I’ve already told you, I didn’t an what I said that day." His hand softly caressed her skin, soothing her repeatedly. "Just consider it a strategy to draw that bastard out."
Lu Wanwan was taken aback. Was it really like this?
Did he want Xiao Ye to think Gu Annan had nothing to do with her, so Xiao Ye would show up?
She didn’t have the energy to figure all this out.
He lifted her chin, and his domineering thin lips pressed against hers.
He proved with his actions that this matter wouldn’t change his feelings for her at all.

The next morning, Arthur ca to the apartnt.
"I don’t care how much you need to be with your wife lately, but these docunts require your personal signature."
He tossed over a stack of papers, looking relieved.
"No matter how much you trust , it doesn’t work. I’m not you; I can’t sign them all for you." Arthur pouted, grateful that Gu Annan had called him today, or he’d still have no solution for this pile of docunts. "When do you plan on rembering you have a busy company to manage? Huh? If this keeps up, those old guys might think I’m plotting to usurp your position."
Gu Annan casually tossed the docunts aside, as if they were worthless waste paper. "I didn’t call you here for this."
Arthur crossed his arms and legs, his brilliant blue eyes glancing helplessly. "Of course, I know it’s not why you called , but these are urgent matters. So, what’s your latest plan? What you’re doing is dangerous, you know? At this rate, you can forget about getting divorced."
"I’m not planning to get divorced anymore." He thought for a mont, then sat seriously in the study chair and said.
Arthur’s eyes widened suddenly. "Impulsive? Or did she offer you another solution?"
"No solution, and not impulsive." Gu Annan said heavily. "But right now, I can’t do it. I can’t go through with it."
Arthur wanted to say, isn’t that impulsive?
He was never willing to do it in the first place—he only tried to push Lu Wanwan away to keep her from being hard.
"What happened? Yesterday you said he must die. I know that, of course, but when you were almost beyond help because of his sches, I never saw you hate him so deeply."
The man in the leather chair had a cold glint in his eyes. "He deserves to die."
Now that Lu Wanwan was inevitably dragged into it, even if he wanted to push her away, Xiao Ye wouldn’t spare her.
If anything, pushing her away might throw her back into Xiao Ye’s grasp.
The most important reason was that if he insisted on taking the chance now, Lu Wanwan would definitely think it was because of what Xiao Ye did to her that he was rejecting her.
"Since there’s no solution," Arthur said gravely, "I want to ask, when the drug reaches the third stage, what do you plan to do? How long do you think you can maintain like this?"
The study door suddenly opened, and Gu Annan looked up abruptly.
Lu Wanwan stood at the doorway, surprised to see Arthur. "What effect of the drug?"
The study fell silent.
"Hi." Arthur quickly put on a smile and said, "We’re studying a drug to deal with him."
