Down's Laboratory
Yun Xi came to the laboratory early in the morning. Ever since she became a Vice President, she could not remember how long it had been since he last went into the laboratory to concoct perfume.
She had come prepared, and had developed a good perfume. After going on sale, it would definitely cause a lot of sales, so she had to concoct a new perfume in the shortest amount of time possible, so that she could recover the loss and let the Tang clan see her own usage.
Even with her hard work, Zhong Yunxi, as her opponent, would naturally not relax. Zhong Yunxi, accompanied by He Ziming, had already arrived at the Noda's laboratory, and started her own day's work.
She had already announced the matter, so she had to hurry and finish everything. This way, no one would steal her formula and allow what she had seen before to happen.
"Take a good rest after this perfume is released. You're too tired these days." He Ziming thoughtfully looked at Zhong Yunxi crafting. In order to prevent himself from seeing the wound on her mouth, she kept on wearing her mask and refused to take it off.
Zhong Yunxi's hand paused for a moment, before she continued with her research.
"When this matter is over, I'll take you out to have a good rest. I've been tired out recently." The same words sounded in his ears, the same words Tang Zeyu had said to her before.
However, things had changed. The only person left to accompany her was He Ziming.
"What are you thinking about?" He Ziming looked at her dazed expression.
"I miss Xiao Nian a little." Zhong Yunxi laughed awkwardly, but she truly missed his son. For Xiao Nian's health, since she wanted to stay, she had to let Gu Cheng take Xiao Nian away for a period of time first.
"Less than two months of time will pass. Don't worry, Gu Cheng will take good care of Xiao Nian."
"Yes, I know." Gu Cheng had always been more attentive towards Xiao Nian than he was, and this was also what made her most moved about. Hence, she now had to help Gu Cheng make this bottle of perfume even better, so that he could express his gratitude.
Time flew, and everything was done in an orderly manner. Although their guesses about their relationship never disappeared, they never saw each other in public again.
However, there was a figure who would quietly appear at a corner and look at Zhong Yunxi's life, but did not approach him at all.
Tang Zeyu was waiting, waiting for him to confirm his intentions. Emotions were things that couldn't be explained.
He had clearly been accompanying Yun Xi for more than ten years, but right now, the only thing he cared about was Zhong Yunxi. Even the self-control he was so proud of all this while was not able to control himself.
Just like now, when he and Yun Xi had stayed in the Tang clan and she was right in front of his eyes, his thoughts had drifted to the other side and he wanted to see that little girl who had returned.
"Ze Yu, eat something, this is a dessert that I made myself." Yun Xi gently embraced Tang Zeyu from behind, and rested his head on his back while acting coquettishly.
"I'm not hungry. You eat first, so go home early." Tang Zeyu removed her hand from his body and returned it to the chair.
"You're not going back today?" Yun Xi started to treat him coldly, what in the world was going on?
"En, I will stay here, I will let Anna send you back."
"No, I'm not going back. I want to stay here with you. We're husband and wife, okay? I'll stay here with you, okay?" Yun Xi sat beside him again, wanting to stay.
"Weren't you feeling unwell recently? Why don't you go back and rest? It's not good to be too tired like this." Tang Zeyu still rejected him straightforwardly, and being rejected time and time again, Yun Xi's arrogant nature also went down the drain.
"Alright, since you want to stay, then you stay. I'll go back by myself." Yun Xi angrily packed up his things, and from time to time, Yun Xi would throw the things in his hands onto the ground to express his dissatisfaction.
Crackling noises could be heard, Tang Zeyu frowned, and finally put down what he was doing, and looked at her.
"Yun Xi, why don't you go back to France?" Tang Zeyu's sudden question stopped the commotion as he looked at him in puzzlement.
At this time, why did he ask her this question, that he would never bring up this matter again? Ever since she found out about Zhong Yunxi's existence, she no longer wanted to leave this place, to leave his side.
"You want me to go to France?" Yun Xi's voice became a little sharp due to her shock, "Weren't you against me going before? You also don't like me walking too close to Kai Wen, so why are you asking me this now?"
"I was just asking."
"Just asking? Was it really just a question? Or now that you have someone you want more, that's why you can't wait for me to leave? " Yun Xi threw the thing in his hands onto the table fiercely.
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? You actually want to ask me what do I mean? " He was already so angry, but Tang Zeyu was as steady as Mt. Tai, not even having the slightest intention of coaxing him.
"It's been four days, it's been four days since the press conference, you haven't had a single night with me, is it not because of that Zhong Yunxi!"
The cold treatment she had suffered towards Tang Zeyu in the past few days had caused her to feel extremely wronged. Since she was young, she had been brought up by someone, but now, she had received cold treatment.
Tang Zeyu did not speak, he looked at Yun Xi who had lost his temper, and did not know what to say. It was true that there was a problem with his relationship with Yun Xi, but what really caused him to face these problems, was indeed Zhong Yunxi's return.
"Look, you can't speak anymore, right? You know what you're thinking, right? Tang Zeyu, you're really great." Yun Xi's tears fell. He actually did not refute his words in the face of his questioning. Was he trying to admit that Zhong Yunxi's position in his heart was more important than his?
"Yun Xi, don't you feel that there are a lot of problems between us? Since things had come to this point, he might as well take everything out and talk about it.
"I have already forgotten everything that happened in the past. Are you still not forgetting, or are you using this as an excuse to distance yourself from me?" Yun Xi walked in front of him and looked him straight in the eye.
"Ze Yu, we have already experienced life and death together, I thought that there was no need to bring up those things from before, I thought that there would no longer be any disagreements between us, why do you still remember these things?
Yun Xi's pitiful look made Tang Zeyu's heart ache, but he did not make a move, "Yun Xi, I just want to clarify the problem between us."
"Explain clearly? What's there to explain? "
"If I had any other women by my side in the past, you definitely wouldn't have allowed it. No matter what the reason is, after you discovered Zhong Yunxi's existence, you didn't mention a single word. Tell me, is this normal?"
"Of course it's abnormal. Do you think I really don't mind in my heart? I just feel that she took care of you in your most difficult time, so I'm grateful to her. I didn't say anything, but you suspect me?"
"The reason why you didn't leave my side to go further training isn't because you really plan on giving up, but because you're worried about Zhong Yunxi, so you stayed by my side, no?" Tang Zeyu had always wanted to say something, but he had never forgotten the words Yun Xi had said to him back then.
"Why can't you support me like Kai Wen? Why do you always force me?" Back then, he had accepted the Tang clan's most difficult time. He only wanted her to accompany him by his side, but she also had her own ambitions.
"So what if I am! I had originally thought that after you found out about Zhong Yunxi's identity, you would hate her deceit, but you didn't, and you were actually still thinking about her.
"Do you hate her so much? At that time, you were still acting friendly towards her in front of me. You might as well be angry at me like how you were back then. That way, I might really forget about her. "
"No, you won't forget her at all. It's precisely because she's the person who appeared when you missed me the most that you're tempted by her. But you don't know that your love for her is completely for me!"
"If you really felt that way, you wouldn't be like this."
Tang Zeyu was also agitated, the coldness on his face seemed to be able to freeze a person up. Yun Xi had indeed always been worried about Zhong Yunxi's existence, and that was why he was able to be so obvious when she returned.
Yun Xi took a step back, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness. What Tang Zeyu said was obviously equivalent to admitting that he had Zhong Yunxi in his heart, and that this relationship did not have anything to do with him. He was not treating her as a substitute.
"So you really fell in love with her. What do you want? Divorce me and marry her? " Yun Xi grinded his teeth as he asked. It's a pity that you won't be able to get her now. She has Gu Cheng by her side and a childhood sweetheart, He Ziming.
Tang Zeyu fiercely looked over, it turned out that she was not secretly enduring, she had actually already sent people to investigate Zhong Yunxi and He Ziming's background, and was moving even faster than him.
"You investigated her?"
"That's right, I investigated her. She is so aggressive and came straight for the Tang clan. As a Vice President of the Tang clan, of course I have to think about the Tang clan."
"Are you thinking for the Tang clan or for yourself?" Tang Zeyu grabbed her wrist tightly, and questioned her with his eyes.
"My goal is all that exists between us. I will not allow anyone to disrupt our relationship, and I will not allow anyone to shake my everything. Otherwise, I will definitely not tolerate her."
The thunder rumbled down, and the light split apart the huge curtain of the night. Zhong Yunxi was shocked by the thunder and almost threw away the test tube in her hands.
"Scared?" He Ziming looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "You've been afraid of thunder since you were young, and it's still the same now."
"Yeah, I'm still scared, but it's already autumn, why is it raining all of a sudden?" Zhong Yunxi walked to the window. The cold wind that blew in made her shiver.
"Can you take good care of yourself?" He Ziming had no choice but to take off his own clothes and put it on her.
