The CEO's Fiery Quest to Win Back Her Heart

Gu Mian turned her head and saw Li Tingshen standing a few meters away, his handsome face so dark it looked like it was about to drip with water.

Yin Luoxue hurried to maneuver her wheelchair forward, "Brother Tingshen, he calls Gu Mian 'mom'. Gu Mian actually has such a big son! Didn't the Li Family investigate thoroughly when selecting a bride for you?"

Li Tingshen's brows knitted slightly as he said in a deep voice, "This child is not Gu Mian's."

Yin Luoxue reflexively asked, "How do you know?"

The light in Li Tingshen's eyes grew deeper, "She was a virgin the first time we married."

Gu Mian had not expected Li Tingshen to be so direct. Although there was no one else present, her face still blushed instantly.

Upon hearing this, Yin Luoxue was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode!

The Li Family married a wife to Li Tingshen just for good fortune, but unexpectedly, Li Tingshen actually had a relationship with Gu Mian!

In this world, only she should possess Li Tingshen. What right did Gu Mian have!

Yin Luoxue worked hard to suppress the hatred in her heart, bit her lip, and muttered, "Brother Tingshen, that can be faked. Virginity restoration surgery is as common as a cold nowadays; perhaps..."

"No way." Yin Luoxue hadn't even finished speaking when the man interrupted her, "Her reaction that night couldn't have been faked."

Their first time, he was inexperienced and clumsy. Gu Mian was clueless beneath him, sweating with pain, her hands tightly clutching the sheets, her lips bitten until they bled, involuntarily letting out whimpering sounds.

Seeing her like that, he was bewitched and took possession of her even more fiercely.

The memories surfaced clearly in his mind, causing the light in Li Tingshen's eyes to dim.

Even though he believed that the child had nothing to do with Gu Mian, his heart was still uncomfortable at that moment.

He had wanted to leave Gu Mian alone for a few days to let her realize her mistake, but instead, she had run off to be someone else's mother!

People who didn't know better might even think he had been cuckolded!

Yin Luoxue's face turned white with anger. Not only had he had a relationship with Gu Mian, but he also vividly remembered Gu Mian's reaction that time. It was infuriating!

She would absolutely not allow Gu Mian to be an eyesore in this world, she had to die!

"Mommy, what is this uncle talking about?" Xiao Bao asked curiously.

"It's nothing!" Gu Mian quickly took Xiao Bao back to the hospital room.

Li Tingshen followed right in, pressing her for an answer, "Gu Mian, I'm asking you, why does he call you 'mom'?"

Gu Mian turned to look at the man behind her, "I am Xiao Bao's caretaker, he mistook me for his mother. Please, lower your voice, do not frighten the child."

Yin Luoxue followed them in, her face displaying a harmless smile, "So that's how it is, it's good that the misunderstanding is cleared up."

Gu Mian looked at her and accused, "Why did you lay your hands on Xiao Bao just now?"

"He broke my bracelet." Yin Luoxue took out a broken diamond bracelet, complaining with a sense of grievance, "It was a birthday present from Brother Tingshen that he gave me recently, of course I would feel distressed if it got broken..."

Gu Mian's heart trembled fiercely!

Of course, she remembered that day was her grandmother's funeral, but Li Tingshen was celebrating Yin Luoxue's birthday instead, and she saw him putting that bracelet on Yin Luoxue in the live broadcast!

"Mommy, I didn't do it on purpose." Xiao Bao's eyes, black as obsidian, looked at Gu Mian, "Her cell phone fell on the ground, I picked it up for her, she wanted to pinch my face, and when I pushed her hand away, the bracelet broke."

Gu Mian held back the tears welling in her eyes and said, "Xiao Bao accidentally broke your bracelet, his father will surely compensate for it, but you should not have hit him."

Yin Luoxue looked affectionately at her bracelet, "This was a gift from Brother Tingshen, it's priceless to me, not something that can be measured in money..."

Gu Mian sneered, "If it's indeed a priceless treasure, then you should have kept it at home as a keepsake, not wear it out where it could be damaged."

With an aggrieved tone, Yin Luoxue tugged at the corner of Li Tingshen's suit, "Brother Tingshen, look at her, she's taking the side of an outsider, and her words are so sarcastic."

Li Tingshen stared at Gu Mian, his face slightly cold, "The last incident hasn't passed, and here you are targeting Luoxue again, aren't you? What exactly is your relationship with this child that you're protecting him like this?"

"He is the employer who pays my salary, who else should I protect if not him?" Gu Mian held Xiao Bao's hand, "And today, Yin Luoxue went too far, you can't just hit a five-year-old child no matter what. I will talk to the child's father, we'll compensate you for the bracelet, but she must apologize to Xiao Bao."

Yin Luoxue glared at Gu Mian, "Gu Mian, you're now Tingshen's wife, how can you side with another man? You keep saying 'the child's father', and this kid is calling you mom, you couldn't possibly be thinking of becoming his stepmother, could you? No wonder you want to divorce Tingshen, turns out you've already found your next man..."

"Shut up!" Gu Mian looked at her, "Yin Luoxue, I'm not as dirty as you are."

Yin Luoxue, with tears of grievance, said, "Tingshen, I just wanted to remind her to not forget who she is and not to do anything that would embarrass you, where am I dirty..."

Li Tingshen's handsome face suddenly turned cold, "Gu Mian, come home with me right now."

"Why should I listen to you?" Gu Mian gazed directly into his icy eyes, "I'm working and will not go with you."

Li Tingshen didn't speak and strode forward, grasping Gu Mian's wrist and dragging her out.

"What are you doing? Let go of me, Li Tingshen! I'm not going!"

Xiao Bao charged over, swinging his fists at Li Tingshen, "Bad guy, let go of my mom!"

Yin Luoxue, seeing Li Tingshen's face suddenly darken, her lips curled into a smile.

Make a fuss. Li Tingshen hates kids the most, the noisier they are, the more he will despise Gu Mian.

Because all of this was caused by Gu Mian.

She'd love to see Li Tingshen, in a rage, slap Gu Mian. That would be truly satisfying!

Li Tingshen indeed was annoyed by Xiao Bao, but no matter how angry he was, he would not hit a child, and directly carried Gu Mian out of the hospital ward over his shoulder, striding away.

Xiao Bao, with his short legs, couldn't keep up with Li Tingshen's pace, and was soon held back by the nurses who hurried over, only able to watch helplessly as his mom was carried into the elevator by the bad guy.

Yin Luoxue stood there dumbfounded, wasn't he supposed to hit Gu Mian? Why give her a princess carry instead?

She had never been princess-carried by Li Tingshen!

And originally, Li Tingshen came to the hospital to see her, but now he was carrying Gu Mian away, leaving her alone here!

The VIP ward's elevator was private, seldom used, and inside were only Li Tingshen and Gu Mian.

Because it was a public place, Gu Mian didn't scream, but calmly looked at him, "Can you put me down now?"

The man's face was icy, "Come home with me."

"I said, that's not my home." Gu Mian lowered her eyes, "Tingshen, sign the divorce agreement, let's let each other go."

The man's gaze turned frigid, and he set her down on the ground.

Gu Mian thought he had agreed and was just breathing a sigh of relief, but in the next second, the man pressed her tightly against the elevator wall and bent down to kiss her lips!

"Mmm..."

Gu Mian clenched her teeth tightly, trying to push him away, but it was to no avail.

Li Tingshen even freed one hand to tilt up her chin, making it easier for her to receive his kiss.

Gu Mian saw the surveillance camera in the corner and felt extremely ashamed!

She didn't want to kiss him, let alone be seen by others in this act!

Just when Gu Mian didn't know what to do, "Ding", the descending elevator halted, and the doors slowly opened.

Someone outside called her name, "Gu Mian?"
