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

Chapter 7 Childhood Sweethearts Are Nothing More Than This

"Lanlan, don't misunderstand. Junior Yu is just a little impatient, but she means well. I am also devoted to you and will never have another woman." Xu Yang knew how to please both sides and not offend either.

"Did you hear that, Yu? Your senior Xu is only devoted to me. Now that your breakfast has been delivered, you should go back. After all, you have difficulty walking now, so don't chase after him anymore. Be careful you don't end up crippled."

Chu Xinglan smiled at Jiao Jiao, seemingly concerned.

Xu Yang and Yu Jiaojiao's expressions both changed.

Xu Yang knew that Yu Jiaojiao liked him, and even though she knew he had a girlfriend, she still clung to him relentlessly. Treating her like that didn't require much effort. The only thing that was giving him a headache now was Chu Xinglan's change. Wasn't she always obedient to him before? Why was she acting so strangely today? Not only were her words barbed, but they were also laced with veiled barbs. He had to protect her feelings for him.

"Junior Yu, you should go back now," Xu Yang said softly.

Yu Jiaojiao didn't want to leave and wanted to stay here as a super third wheel.

"No, how can she leave? She broke her leg but still brought you breakfast. You should spend more time with her. I won't be a third wheel here."

Chu Xinglan turned to leave as she spoke.

Yu Jiaojiao couldn't wait for Chu Xinglan to leave so she could have some time alone with Xu Yang, but when Xu Yang saw Chu Xinglan about to leave, he quickly grabbed her.

"Lanlan!"

Xu Yang wasn't stupid. He knew who he should hold onto right now. Chu Xinglan was clearly acting strangely. If she really left, it would be difficult to maintain their relationship in the future. One required effort to coax, while the other would fawn over him as long as he showed even the slightest affection, so he naturally didn't need to put in any effort.

Either of these two women would change his life and save him decades of struggle, but right now, the beautiful Chu Xinglan has a slight advantage.

Therefore, he must find a way to get Yu Jiaojiao to leave so that he can use his charm to make Chu Xinglan fall in love with him again.

"Junior Yu, you have trouble walking, so go back and rest well. I'll come visit you when I have time."

Upon hearing Xu Yang's words, Yu Jiaojiao immediately burst into laughter.

"Alright then, don't forget to watch me!"

Seeing Yu Jiaojiao at this moment, Chu Xinglan couldn't help but think of her past self. Back then, she was probably just like that, completely controlled by Xu Yang. A single word of praise from him would make her excited for a long time, and a few gentle words from him would make her overjoyed.

"Xu Yang, I'm leaving now." As Yu Jiaojiao left, she didn't forget to give Chu Xinglan a fierce look.

Chu Xinglan watched as Yu Jiaojiao, leaning on her cane, walked step by step toward her luxury car. The driver got out to help her, but was stopped by Yu Jiaojiao's stern gaze.

How could the proud Yu Jiaojiao allow a driver she considered inferior to touch her? The reason she relentlessly pursued Xu Yang was simply because she was attracted to his good looks. How could she truly understand Xu Yang? In fact, she didn't care to understand him at all. She believed that giving him the best was enough. And indeed, because of Yu Jiaojiao's family background, Xu Yang wavered between her and Yu Jiaojiao.

After Yu Jiaojiao's luxury car drove away, an even more expensive car was parked not far away. Gu Ye was sitting in the car. Originally, the car had driven away, but Keke saw Xu Yang coming to find Chu Xinglan. Gu Ye still asked Xue Bai to drive the car over. Through the car window, he watched the whole process of the two women fighting over one man.

Gu Ye's fingers clenched silently.

Lanlan, in this life... are you really choosing to be with Xu Yang?

"I didn't expect this kid to be so popular, that he even made two young ladies jealous of each other."

Xue Bai muttered to himself, but when he saw Gu Ye's gloomy face, he immediately shut his mouth.

Gu Ye stared intently at Chu Xinglan.

The cycad finally bloomed, but alas, the king had a dream, but the goddess was unmoved; it would have been better if the cycad had never bloomed at all.

"Go back!" Gu Ye didn't want to stay here and watch the girl he liked being all lovey-dovey with someone else.

Chu Xinglan didn't notice Gu Ye's car. She looked away and turned to Xu Yang.

"In the blink of an eye, you've already started calling me by my affectionate name. It seems I've really spoiled your fun."

"Lanlan, don't overthink it. You're the only one in my heart." Xu Yang quickly looked at Chu Xinglan with deep affection.

He was born with a pair of amorous phoenix eyes. Chu Xinglan used to only feel that they were sexy, but now she felt that they were so frivolous.

She said calmly, "I haven't thought about it much, and I don't want to think about it much. Xu Yang, you said you only have me in your heart. If I told you that I slept with Gu Ye yesterday, would you still want me?"

Chu Xinglan didn't want to play along with her anymore and spoke directly.

"Gu Ye? Gu Ye from the Gu Group?" Xu Yang was taken aback.

Chu Xinglan nodded.

"Lanlan, stop joking. How could you be with Gu Ye..." Xu Yang felt that Chu Xinglan was deliberately trying to provoke him.

"What's impossible? I'm telling the truth, it happened just last night!" Chu Xinglan said calmly.

"Was it...was it Gu Ye who forced you?" Xu Yang's voice became somewhat angry.

"No, it was a mutual agreement, and we had a wonderful night together." Chu Xinglan stared intently at Xu Yang.

If he said he didn't care whether she was innocent or not, she could still believe that he truly cared for her. But Xu Yang's reaction showed her a different outcome.

So whether in the present or the past, if she hadn't married Gu Ye but had firmly chosen him instead, she wouldn't have had a better outcome after being defiled.

"Lanlan...our family is a very traditional family, and...we can't really accept a woman who has lost her virginity before marriage!"

Xu Yang's voice grew softer and softer until it became barely audible.

"If you don't tell, how will the elders know?" Chu Xinglan deliberately tested him. From his expression, she knew that Xu Yang would not be her choice.

"Lanlan, I can't accept this. Why did you get involved with Gu Ye? Who is he? A ruthless and cold-blooded man. If he really has his eye on you, I can't compete with him for you." Xu Yang stopped pretending and directly rebuked Chu Xinglan for her indiscretion.

Chu Xinglan, who was being criticized by Xu Yang, didn't say anything but laughed. Her laughter was so crazy that it left Xu Yang bewildered and somewhat frightened.

"Lanlan?"

"Childhood sweethearts, true love is priceless... all that nonsense, I was wrong about you after all!"

Chu Xinglan walked towards home.

"Lanlan!" Xu Yang said anxiously, pulling on Chu Xinglan's hand.

Go find your Yu Jiaojiao, we... are over!

Chu Xinglan forcefully shook off Xu Yang's hand.
