Tang Xiaoyu, who was sleeping in the room, frowned. She seemed to be experiencing the most painful thing in her dream but she could still remember how beautiful she looked in her dream.
“Xiaoyu, come here. Come with me. Don’t walk forward anymore. Gu Zhengrong has already abandoned you. You can only defeat him better by standing beside me. Only then can you step on his head and be the strongest woman. Xiaoyu, listen to me. Come with me.”
Mr Li’s voice was like a loudspeaker that repeated in her head.
“I…”
Tang Xiaoyu was conflicted as to whether she should stand with Mr Li or not. If she did, would she have nothing to do with Gu Zhengrong? Why did she wish for something to happen to her and Gu Zhengrong even though she hated him to the core?
“Xiaoyu, what are you hesitating for? Come over. Don’t worry, I’ll be by your side. As long as you want to be a strong woman, I can support you wherever you want to go. Xiaoyu, listen to me. Come over, I’ll bring you away. Leave Gu Zhengrong’s side, he is a man who will only bring you pain.”
Tang Xiaoyu hesitated. Should I really leave? Should I really leave Gu Zhengrong’s side forever?
“Mr Li, I… I haven’t decided yet…”
Tang Xiaoyu lowered her head in pain, not knowing what to do.
“Xiaoyu, have you forgotten how Gu Zhengrong treated you? The only person he loves is Pei Ge. How much place do you have in his heart?”
Mr Li’s voice was cold as he looked at Tang Xiaoyu strangely.
“I…”
How could Tang Xiaoyu forget? How could she forget? In Gu Zhengrong’s heart, she, Tang Xiaoyu, was never the first person to consider. As long as Pei Ge was around, she would not have any place in his eyes. As long as Pei Ge was around, she would not have any special place in his eyes.
Not a single possibility.
If there was, Gu Zhengrong must have met with an accident and lost his memory. As long as he remembered Pei Ge, Tang Xiaoyu would never appear in his eyes again.
However, Tang Xiaoyu never knew that what she thought was not what she thought. Just like how she thought that Gu Zhengrong was not the person in her memory.
Who could tell whether it was true or not?
“Xiaoyu, are you really not coming with me?”
Mr Li’s voice rang beside her once again.
“Mr Li, I think I should think about it carefully this time. I still haven’t decided if I want to go with you. I don’t know if Gu Zhengrong…”
“What do you not know? What else do you want to know? Don’t tell me you want to continue staying by his side when he’s wasting your sincerity? Only by following me can you have the future you want and the tomorrow you want. You silly girl, you really don’t understand my feelings.”
Mr Li looked at Tang Xiaoyu with disappointment. When Tang Xiaoyu was not paying attention, he seemed to be getting closer to her, but when she was not paying attention, his gaze on her became clearer.
Tang Xiaoyu could even see the clear stubble on Mr Li’s lips.
“Mr Li, you…”
“Come with me. Don’t be with Gu Zhengrong anymore. You can only lead a better life by following me. Only by following me can you get everything you want. Only then will Duo Duo have a better future…”
“You old man, let go of Xiaoyu’s hand!”
Unknowingly, Gu Zhengrong had appeared in front of Tang Xiaoyu. He exuded a vicious aura and looked as if he wanted to send this man straight to hell.
“Oh? Gu Zhengrong, are you here to snatch Xiaoyu away from me? Then, you should ask her first and see if she agrees to be with you. See if you can snatch her away from me. I want to see how much courage you have to snatch her away from me.”
As soon as Mr Li finished speaking, he hugged Tang Xiaoyu tightly, causing her to cough.
“Old thing, I think you really don’t want to live anymore. How much do you think that company of yours is worth? Do you think that Tang Xiaoyu has always loved you in her heart? How capable do you think you are? Even Ji Ziming doesn’t dare to speak like you. Mr. Li, your words are really impressive. At least, your aura is impressive. Compared to ordinary men, it’s really great.”
“You don’t have to comment on how I am. Gu Zhengrong, if you can, come and snatch Tang Xiaoyu away from me, this woman in my arms.”
Tang Xiaoyu was trapped in Mr Li’s embrace and could not move. She could only look at Gu Zhengrong, who was not far away, aggrievedly, wondering if this man was worth it for her to love him again.
“Sure, Mr Li. I’ll let you see if I’m better than you tonight. Since we’re both men, how about using a man’s method to solve the problem?”
Gu Zhengrong’s neck moved and the sound of his joints cracking could be heard.
“Sure, let’s use a man’s method. Xiaoyu, stand on the other side. We need some space to fight. It’s not convenient for you to be here, and I’m afraid of hurting you.”
Mr Li’s eyes was very bright. He looked like a young man who was more than ten years younger than his actual self. His eyes were sparkling with excitement.
“No, Mr Li, don’t do this. I don’t want to see you hurt. I don’t want to. I don’t want to—”
Tang Xiaoyu shook her head. She did not want to see any of their injuries, no matter who he was.
“Don’t worry, Xiaoyu, I won’t lose. For you, I won’t lose.”
In the dream, Mr Li doted on Tang Xiaoyu a lot. In reality, he was merely helping her with her career and was only interested in Duo Duo.
Tang Xiaoyu was pushed to the wall by Mr Li. Helplessly, she could only watch the two men show off their skills in front of her. Excitement was in the air as if they were sparring.
A knife flashed in front of Tang Xiaoyu. She saw Gu Zhengrong holding a knife in his hand and was shocked when his hand was about to touch Mr Li.
