Suppressing the tears from his eyes, Su Xiaoxiao closed his eyes in silence. After a long time, when he finally calmed himself down, Su Xiaoxiao opened his eyes once again, looked at Lu Yuanchen and said coldly: "CEO is fine, I'm going upstairs to rest." With that said, Su Xiaoxiao went past Lu Yuanchen and went upstairs.

The disciple remained behind, stunned at the place where Lu Yuanchen was at a loss.

Lu Yuanchen had never been so confused before. The Su Xiaoxiao at that moment was really strange.

Lu Yuanchen scratched his head in annoyance, he kicked the tea table and bellowed: "What!"

After this argument, the cold war between the two began to break out.

At home, the two of them didn't even speak when they saw each other, instead returning to their respective rooms. When he saw it in the company, Su Xiaoxiao only politely greeted the CEO and did not say anything else.

In fact, after that night of argument, Lu Yuanchen regretted his impulsiveness, but the usually haughty Lu Yuanchen could not bring himself to apologize to Su Xiaoxiao. The two of them could only continue their cold war like this.

Lu Yuanchen could clearly feel that ever since the night he lost his promise due to drunkenness, Su Xiaoxiao had become different. Her smile became less and less, and the Su Xiaoxiao who usually always had a bright and sunny face disappeared. She became quiet and depressed, to the point where Lu Yuanchen's own mood had been severely affected.

Lu Yuanchen didn't know why the two of them had become like this. Even if they weren't too close in the past, they weren't as cold as they were now. Ice cold. He was like a stranger whom the two of them did not know at all.

Lu Yuanchen knew that the reason was because of that night. There were several times when Lu Yuanchen wanted to explain to Su Xiaoxiao the reason why he missed his appointment that day, but every time his words reached his mouth, he couldn't say it.

Lu Yuanchen could only take this opportunity to vent his anger on his innocent subordinates. His requirements were becoming more and more demanding, more and more picky, to the point where every director had entered his office with their heads lowered, and came out with a bitter face.

Suddenly, the entire Lu's Group was in the middle of winter, and Lu Yuanchen's office was the Shura's hunting ground. Everyone became terrified, and they became even more cautious, as they wished that there was a hole in the ground where Lu Yuanchen was hiding, because the current Lu Yuanchen was even more terrifying than Satan.

Ling Feng could clearly feel that the reason why Lu Yuanchen was abnormally angry was because of Su Xiaoxiao. For the peace of the Lu's Group, Ling Feng had sought Su Xiaoxiao many times, wanting him to persuade Lu Yuanchen. The result could be imagined, Su Xiaoxiao had only said one sentence, in the heart of the CEO, I am not as important as you think. He immediately rejected Ling Feng.

At the start, Su Xiaoxiao would politely reject them, but as Ling Feng continued to search more and more, Su Xiaoxiao took a detour whenever he saw Ling Feng.

Ling Feng felt that there was a misunderstanding between the two of them. The CEO clearly seemed to be very concerned and nervous about Su Xiaoxiao, but why did Su Xiaoxiao say that it was not important.

Ling Feng was only helping out, but he could not do anything about the relationship between the two of them. This matter was left unsettled just like that.

Lu Yuanchen naturally knew about Ling Feng going to find Su Xiaoxiao. The reason why he was being so harsh to his own subordinates was because he wanted Ling Feng to go and find Su Xiaoxiao. As long as Su Xiaoxiao was willing to take the initiative and come up, he would use this opportunity to explain everything to him.

However, Su Xiaoxiao rejected him. This made Lu Yuanchen even angrier, and he couldn't control his anger inside the office. Ling Feng innocently lied down and was also hit.

And ever since that night, Bai Xinxin had been pestering Lu Li time and time again.

Either to let Lu Yuanchen visit the crew or to invite Lu Yuanchen for lunch.

And every time Bai Xinxin ate with Lu Yuanchen, he would stop pretending to be himself and act high profile, wishing that the whole world would know of her relationship with Lu Yuanchen.

Because of this, the two of them appeared frequently on the front page of the newspapers and magazines, but the rumors about them became unclear.

However, because she felt guilty in her heart, and also because of her own promise, she was unable to reject Bai Xinxin. She could only bite the bullet and agree to Bai Xinxin's unreasonable request.

Lu Yuanchen naturally knew what Bai Xinxin's high-profile show of love was for, but Lu Yuanchen could only pretend that he did not know. To put it bluntly, he could not give Bai Xinxin what she wanted, but he had stolen her innocence. She felt guilty and could only struggle on the edge of pain.

Su Xiaoxiao naturally saw Lu Yuanchen and Bai Xinxin in the newspapers. Even if she didn't read these magazines, there were naturally people who placed them in front of her for her to read. For Lu Yuanchen to be walking together with Bai Xinxin, Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have long predicted it. He did not feel too much, his heart had already become numb from the pain, but what kind of feeling would he have?

Su Xiaoxiao felt that even she herself felt that her current self was very unfamiliar. She did her best to restore her happy and carefree look, but when she lifted the corner of her mouth, she knew that it was difficult for her to even smile.

Right now, the entire Lu's Group was spreading the news of the marriage between Lu Yuanchen and Su Xiaoxiao. It was said that the real princess had come, so Su Xiaoxiao this ugly duckling could finally leave.

Su Xiaoxiao could only smile bitterly in response, but he could not argue any further. Because what they said were the truth. Compared to Bai Xinxin, she really could only be an ugly duckling that couldn't even catch up to him. Those who used to curry favor with Su Xiaoxiao began to add insult to injury, returning to their previous actions of bullying Su Xiaoxiao. The human heart is fickle. In regards to this, Su Xiaoxiao did not have much of a difference, but instead felt that this life of hers was the real life that truly belonged to her.

He didn't need to pretend that he was a snake, and he didn't need anyone to curry favor with him. This was good enough. If he was used to living a luxurious life, what kind of blow would it be when he left that day?

When everyone got off work at night, Su Xiaoxiao was left alone in the office, unwilling to leave. Su Xiaoxiao did not have much work to do, so he quietly sat on the chair and stared blankly.

Right now, what Su Xiaoxiao wished for the most was time to work, and the thing he hated the most was time to get off work.

Because once she got off work, she would need to return to the villa that was filled with Lu Yuanchen's aura. It would cause her to feel suffocated.

She thought that Lu Yuanchen would end the marriage agreement with her in advance, but in the end, Lu Yuanchen did not say anything.

Su Xiaoxiao was unable to describe his current feeling with words. It was as if he was a prisoner waiting to die. Because like this, Su Xiaoxiao became more and more unwilling to see Lu Yuanchen, and became more and more anxious to avoid him.

Su Xiaoxiao thought again whether or not she should find a part-time job for him. This way, she wouldn't have to meet with the villa in advance and wouldn't need to think about Lu Yuanchen with extra time. This did not rekindle Su Xiaoxiao's hope, it was just a matter of time, that's all.

Just as Su Xiaoxiao was thinking about all these, the phone on the table vibrated.
