The CEO x Runaway Wife

to have seen something terrible in a dream, his breath became short of breath: "Mom, no!"Ning Shu couldn't help but be taken aback.He actually knew very little about Li Yan's family affairs. He only...He paused for a moment, then continued singing the song.

Maybe she had been leaned on for too long, Ning Shu couldn't help but move. But the man's body was simply too tall, and coupled with his previous threats, she didn't dare to make any big movements. She only gently twisted her head slightly, but this movement just so happened to pull at the wound on her neck.

The young man couldn't help but take a small breath.

Even his voice trembled slightly.

Li Yan opened his narrow and deep eyes. In the night, they seemed like those of a cold-blooded animal devoid of emotion. He extended his icy hand and grabbed the opponent's neck.

Ning Shu couldn't help but be a little terrified, thinking the other party was going to strangle him again. His body stiffened involuntarily. Li Yan's finger touched his wound and after a while, he said, "Go call the housekeeper over."

He looked surprised. Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then got up.

Just as he took two steps, a sinister voice echoed from behind him, "If you dare to run away, I'll break your legs."

Ning Shu pursed her lips, the moment he opened the door. As if hearing a noise, the housekeeper hurried over, holding a candlestick in his hand. At the sight of the young man, he showed a surprised expression: "..Master Ning"

And at the same time, Li Yan's voice rang out from behind: "Liu Guanjia, go get the medicine chest."

Before the Butler could even think about how the young man ended up here, he was taken aback by Mr. Li's tone. Usually at this time, Mr. Li would lock himself in his room and forbid anyone from entering.

He had once seen Mr. Li's mad appearance, with bloodshot eyes and a frantic expression. Now, Mr. Li's voice was only somewhat low and hoarse, appearing quite normal on the surface.

The steward didn't dare to think too much, quickly said "good", and brought over the medicine box.

"Mr. Ning, would you like me to bandage you"

"You may leave now."

Li Yan's voice was heavy as he spoke, the butler glanced at the young man standing in the doorway, then turned and left.

Ning Shu remained silent and brought in the medicine box.

The moment the door was shut, silence and oppression returned to the room. It felt as if something unseen lurked in the darkness.

Ning Shu knows what's up.

Lei Yan's presence was like that of someone who was always there, yet never truly present. His heart tightened as he walked over. The instant he got close, Lei Yan grabbed him tightly.

Ning Shu was startled, then whispered, "Mr. Li, are you injured"

Li Yan's voice sounded a little cold as he said, "Sit down."

Ning Shu sat down as he was told. Li Yan extended his icy hand and touched his neck. After a while, he realized that the other party was applying medicine to him.

A flicker of surprise crossed the young man's face.

He smelled a hint of blood, it came from Li Yan's hand. Ning Shu initially thought it was his own blood, but after a while, he vaguely felt that it wasn't entirely so.

Li Yan had already bandaged his wound, but his hand still gripped him tightly. Then, in a threatening and ominous tone, he coldly stated, "Stay here tonight."

A domineering and commanding tone.

Ning Shu opened her mouth and said, "Mr. Li, you're injured"

Li Yan suddenly stopped, those eyes looking over.

Ning Shu couldn't see the expression on the other person's face clearly. He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I smell blood. Are your hands injured"

Li Yan moved his hand, he was smashing things when... completely unaware, a faintly throbbing wound on his hand split open.

Ning Shu smelled the metallic scent becoming stronger, he deduced that the man was wounded at this moment and couldn't help but say: "Mr. Li, let me help you treat the wound."

Li Yan just stood there silently, letting him pull his hand over and begin disinfecting it.

Moonlight filtered faintly from outside, falling upon the young man's face. That handsome visage seemed to be covered with a soft halo. His long, slightly curled eyelashes made his heart swell involuntarily.

When Ning Shu looked up, she was met with Li Yan's gaze. His obsidian eyes stared at her intently. His face was lost in the darkness, but Ning Shu felt as if she were being watched.

On a soft, big bed.

Ning Shu lay down.

Li Yan looked at his helpless appearance and tightly grasped the young man's wrist, commanding, "Sing that song again."

Ning Shu only then realized that Li Yan wanted him to stay, but not in the way he thought.

He couldn't help but blush, then lay down beside the other person. He began to sing that lullaby.

Li Yan's grip was very tight, so tight that Ning Shu suspected that even if he used all his strength, he wouldn't be able to break free.

The noble man had his eyes closed, his handsome face flawless. A faint blue tinge in his eyes made Ning Shu glance at him, and then she saw Li Yan's eyelids twitch slightly.

Who taught you this song

Ning Shu fell silent for a moment before replying, "My wet nurse." He pursed his lips and whispered, "When I was a child, I couldn't sleep. She would sing this song to me."

Later, the nanny was fired after being cried and nagged by Ning Xi.

After that, Ning Shu never saw the other person again.

Li Yan's expression in the darkness was unclear, he only asked faintly: "You two are getting along well"

Ning Shu was slightly taken aback and honestly replied, "Later on, she got fired. We haven't seen each other since."

"But you have a deep impression of her and miss her very much."

Ning Shu was surprised by his observation, which was beyond ordinary. Her heart trembled, and she remained silent.

Li Yan no longer spoke, continuing to close his eyes and say in a cold voice, "Sleep."

"If I can't see you tomorrow morning..."

"What do you think I would do"

Ning Shu didn't speak, and he continued to sing for Li Yan. After about ten minutes, his eyelids became heavy with fatigue, and he fell asleep soundly.

Only the youth didn't notice that the man who had been "asleep" opened his eyes again, and then looked at him lying beside him, stretched out a cold hand, and touched his facial contours. Who knows what he was thinking.

.....

The next morning, Ning Shu woke up to find the temperature beside her bed had cooled.

The next few days.

Li Yan never mentioned what happened that night, but Ning Shu's heart couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He was sure that night was Li Yan's secret, one known by very few people.

But now, he was caught in the act.

As one would expect.

Ning Shu couldn't help but let out a small sigh. After that night, Li Yan didn't know why, he had given him a lot of favor.

He bowed his head and silently ate a piece of bread.

I vaguely realized that ever since that night, Li Yan seemed different somehow.

If men in the past had a noble and icy appearance, looking aloof and powerful, then now Li Yan is like being within a dangerous zone.

Sometimes Ning Shu only felt that something was hidden beneath the other person's eyes, making them seem more terrifying and unfathomable.

During dinner, with the gentle clinking of cutlery.

Li Yan received a phone call.

On the phone, he seemed unfazed by whatever was said.

Ning Shu lowered her head to eat dinner.

Then, he heard Li Yan speaking into the phone: "Dad, I want to bring someone back home."

He looked up.

He immediately caught Li Yan's gaze, his eyes filled with malice. Despite the coldness of his expression, beneath that elegant exterior lay a heart as hard as ice: "You'll know then."

Ning Shu heard the other party hang up the phone, Li Yan was elegantly cutting steak: "Go back with me this weekend."

He didn't ask why, he just nodded.

Li Yan took a sip of red wine and looked over, "You're not curious why I brought you back"

He inquired coldly.

Ning Shu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and asked, "Mr. Li, why"

He felt that his current identity was somewhat inappropriate. What form should he go back in according to Li Yan It couldn't possibly be as a lover.

Li Yan's obsidian eyes stared at him, as if recalling something amusing.

"You don't have to do anything, just follow me."

.....

The day Li Yan went back, Ning Shu wore a white suit.

The man looked him up and down. “Handsome.”

Ning Shu didn't speak. He felt that if it weren't for being in the car, but in the room. Li Yan would have already stripped him naked and then pressed heavily on top of him.

Beneath a veneer of aristocratic refinement, lurks an air of aggression.

After driving for several tens of minutes, they reached the halfway point up the mountain. Within the villa district, it was wide and quiet, looking nothing like the house that belonged to Li Yan.

After getting off the bus.

Ning Shu followed behind Li Yan.

Unlike the Li Yan household, there were many servants in the villa. The moment they saw Li Yan, they would respectfully call him Master.

When they saw the young man behind the noble man, they all involuntarily showed a look of astonishment.

Under a crystal chandelier, brilliant and expensive. A middle-aged man with somewhat gray hair, already in his fifties, though his body was not well, sat in a wheelchair, being pushed from behind.

When Li Shengrong saw the young man behind his son, his face twitched involuntarily before he masked all expressions.

He slowly said, "A-Yan, is this your friend"

Ning Shu stood behind the man and met Li Shengrong's gaze. The other party's sharp eyes swept over him briefly, with a strong displeasure in his eyes.

Li Yan walked before Li Shengrong, his tone devoid of any emotion as he said: "She is my lover now."

Ning Shu's heart tightened at the sound of those words.

He didn't believe what Li Yan said was true. He just stood there, accepting Li Shengrong's interrogation.

Li Shengrong's jaw trembled for a moment after hearing this. He clenched the wheelchair tightly, then said, "Ayan, you've gone too far this time."

Li Yan stared at him, suddenly letting out a strange smile: "What, are you unhappy with my lover"t figure it out yourself." 。Those few people instantly gave way to the path, not forgetting to remind: "Young Master Lin, don't stay too long." 。"Got it" 。“Lin Yu said impatiently, her tone arrogant a...
