Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

“There’s a doctor in there. Right now, only a doctor can help him. Sir wouldn’t want you to see him like this now.”
Yes …
Even with his amnesia, he was still the same proud Lan Yu Feng.
What could he do if he barged in like this? If one could not share, going in would only add to his burden. His own tears of worry might still be a humiliation for him.
But …
Really … really, so worried …
Also, so heartbreaking …
Ziggy stiffened and leaned helplessly against the door panel, slowly crouching down.
Thinking of the torment he was enduring at the moment, she bit her lower lip hard to tell herself to be stronger. However, her lips were bitten out to a pale color, but she still couldn’t help crying out.
“Ms. Meng, you’re in a special situation, it’s better to go sit on the sofa.” Yan Nan was worried about her physical condition.
“No, I’ll stay here …”
I can’t take it on for him, but …
She just wanted to be close to him, closer, so that he could feel her presence at all times …
A door that separates two people.
Inside the door, his body suffered great torment …
Outside the door, she suffered a dull agony in her heart …
Neither the servants nor Yan Nan could bear to look at it anymore, sadly averting their eyes.
Finally, the door to the rehab room was abruptly pulled open from the inside. Caught off guard, Zi Ge almost fell, being held up by Yan Nan’s quick eyes and hands. Only then did she stabilize her body, and without bothering to check herself, she started off and headed towards the rehab room.
Standing in the doorway, for a moment, stunned.
It was as if he had fainted from the pain, and his face was as pale as paper. Dressed thinly, his appearance looked weaker and weaker, lying on the soft bed in the rehab room still, covered in cold sweat. The hair on his head was wet with sweat.
Ziggy didn’t want to shed tears in front of his eyes.
But …
But the tears still couldn’t help falling down.
Is this what he has to endure every few days?
Wiping away her tears, Ziggy walked over to her.
He seemed genuinely tired and only lifted his eyelids to look at her. Zi Ge reached out to hold him firmly in her loving arms and lay on his chest, greedily listening to his heartbeat.
His own restless heart had not finally drifted back until this moment.
“Is it okay?” She asked softly, choking on her voice.
“It’s all right …” he replied weakly.
Ignoring the cold sweat that covered his body, Zige buried her face on his chest. With trembling lips, she murmured out, “I’m sorry …”
“Sorry for what?” He asked, his lips pale.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have let you endure so much because of me … I’m sorry, I came too late …” she choked as she touched his hand with a trembling hand. The center of his hand was cold, and after Zi Ge eagerly grabbed it, she firmly clasped it without letting go.
It was as if the only way to hold him tightly was to keep him from disappearing from his life again.
Love him … actually have long been in love to the bone …
Lan Yu Feng also did not struggle, instead, he backhanded and her tightly entwined.
The blending of Ruan’s small hands, as well as her gentle voice, as if it had a kind of magical magic, could soothe all the emptiness in his heart. Together with …
All the pain in his body seemed to fade away.
“What were we, before?” He asked suddenly, his other hand slowly lifting to embrace her.
Ziggy was stunned for a moment and choked back a sob, “Did it matter before?”
The past was so unpleasant and heavy that she suddenly dared not mention it, dared not let him face it now.
She’s a little scared …
Fear that those would once again become a crossroads they could not cross with each other.
Also afraid of …
He’ll be depressed by all that unpleasantness again.
“I don’t know if it’s important or not, it just seems … like you should be important to me in the past.”
She didn’t know how to answer, she just hugged him tighter. His weak voice continued, “You know what? The moment I woke up, looking at the unfamiliar faces, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, I was scared. It felt as if I had been abandoned by the whole world. The thing that scares me the most is that I am so empty … here like I have been hollowed out for no reason.”
He nodded his chest. “These past few months, I’ve tried so hard to find my memories, to fill my heart … but it’s been in vain. Until …”
Her presence.
Even if she did nothing but stand beside him and occasionally talk to him; just accompany him in his meals; just help him to sleep, he felt that the gaping hole that had always been there in his heart was gradually being filled.
Even the occasional closing of my eyes and thinking of her made my heart feel very different.
“Sir.” Before the words were finished, the door was abruptly pushed open from outside.
Seeing the two embracing each other, Yan Nan was stunned and hurriedly turned his back in a sensible manner.
“That … I’ll see the doctor off first. The doctor said for you to have a good soak and the medicine has been prescribed.”
Zige lightly bit her lip and reluctantly came out of Lan Yu Feng’s arms. Glancing at him to draw back his hand, he didn’t let go, but just faintly whispered back to Yan Nan, “Got it. Have someone come up and help me back to my room.”
“Okay, sir.” Yan Nan contained a light smile and brought the door closed to go out.
Ziggy was sitting in his bedroom, listening to the sound of water clattering inside. The maid was pouring him a medicinal bath.
She was a little fidgety, wondering how he was doing in the bathroom right now.
While she was worried, the bathroom door was pulled open and a maid came out of the bathroom, “Miss Meng, Mr. said to let you in.”
“Me?” Ziggy pointed at herself in surprise.
“Uh-huh.”
“Is he having a hard time again?” Ziggy got worried and couldn’t think too much about it, so she busied herself with walking in.
When he went in, he was lying in the bathtub. The medicated water had soaked through his entire body, revealing only a pair of his arms and shoulders. In his hand he was looking at a contract.
Zi Ge was a little unsure of where to put his eyes. Although the potion is brown, however, there are some places that are … too harsh to hide.
“You … looking for me?” Her heart was beating extremely fast.
His mind involuntarily recalled the image of that time when he had injured his back and bathed for him, and he only felt a fever on his face.
“Hmm. I’m a little tired and lazy, so you can wash me. And the legs, press them again.” He spoke openly as if nothing had happened.
Asking her to help him bathe again?
Of course Ziggy wouldn’t refuse.
Pulled a small chair and sat down close to the tub. Dropping her eyes to look at his frail, tired face, she jerked the contract out of his hand, “Since you feel tired, don’t look at it. Get some rest.”
Ziggy said as she tucked a massage pillow in the back of his neck.
“I need to familiarize myself with the company’s business. I heard Yan Nan say that it’s Su Xi’s brother who’s helping me with the company.” Lan Yu Feng pressed down his brow and went to get the contract again, “Even though it’s amnesia, it’s a responsibility that belongs to me, and I can’t run away from it.”
Zige was distressed and jerked the contract away again. Touching his dissatisfied line of sight, she spoke almost pleadingly, ”Don’t push yourself so hard. Your urgency to familiarize yourself with the company’s business is understandable, but the QU Group is so huge, if you want to familiarize yourself with it, I’m afraid it’s not something you can do overnight. Take a good rest now, or at least wait until you’re in better health and have more energy to do it.”
She persuaded her bitterly.
Lan Yu Feng looked at her and eventually stopped insisting. Zige sighed in relief and first pressed his neck for him. The soft fingertips that fell with gentleness made him feel comfortable and relaxed.
Gradually …
Her fingers, dipping into the water. Went around behind him and pressed his aching back.
His eyes were closed, but he clearly felt her nervousness. Inexplicably, his breathing also became rapid, and his body was vaguely hot.
“Okay, no need to press here. Just press the legs.” He suddenly grabbed her blending Nguyen’s hand to remove her from her waist …
I didn’t realize that when I ripped it off, I accidentally ran into …
He shuddered, his body stiffening slightly.
Zige was dumbfounded.
“You … you …” She couldn’t speak.
“See what? Never seen it before?” It was fine, but he felt awkward even after being stared at with that look in her eyes.
“Aren’t you … unconscious in the lower half of your body?”
He gritted his teeth, “I thought I was unconscious too, but, now it seems he’s feeling fine!”
“It’s … yes?” So should she be happy or glad for him?
Lan Yu Feng’s face darkened even more. What do you mean ‘is it’? This was clearly a tone of skepticism!
“Isn’t it you can try.” Lan Yu Feng grabbed her hand again, catching her off guard and holding it down there.
“You … “The rolling heat and hard touch made Zi Ge look like she had touched a hot potato, blushing and breaking away from his hand, glaring at him repeatedly, “You’re playing a rascal!”
Looking at her shocked and shy appearance, Lan Yu Feng suddenly couldn’t help but raise his lips and smile.
That smile, like the sun shining on the sea, although still can not converge with his body to live with the refreshing and introverted, but rubbed into a touch of fine light.
Zige looked moved, infected by his smile, she couldn’t help but smile away as well.
A smile like this was almost never seen before …
In fact, what does memory matter? Nowadays, it’s much easier to live a purer life.
It was a while before Zige said, “Stop it, take a nice bath and I’ll press your legs.”
At this point, he then really behaved himself and didn’t make any more noise, just leaned back against the tub and closed his eyes comfortably, enjoying the comfort of the massage.
When the water was almost cold, Ziggy was going to go out and call for someone to take him out of the tub. After a moment’s thought, she grabbed a large bath towel and tossed it to him.
“What for?”
“You … put it around your waist.” She didn’t explain, just commanded.
Lan Yu Feng looked down to see, his eyebrows twitching.
There, it felt too good to be true. There was no intention of stopping until now.
The night, deep as a black curtain, makes no light visible.
Ke Hengjun pushed open the door, looked at the empty and cold full room, and threw himself helplessly on the sofa. Ever since Zi Ge had gone to Russia, the family had dismissed all the servants. Now, the only one left was him …
The empty house would fit his state of mind at the moment.
Dropping onto the couch, he flipped through the termination contract with no energy, pondering how to word it with the company. Biting open his pen, he was about to write something when he felt his stomach lurch. He held it back for a while, but in the end, he couldn’t hold back and rushed to the restroom to vomit for a while.
It took a while before he somewhat weakly stumbled over the toilet. However, the cramps in his stomach did not ease at all.
When Minnie called, he listened feebly. “Brother Xiaohua, you didn’t eat dinner again! Please, how can you abuse yourself like that? Zige but she explained to me to keep a good eye on you to eat on time and sleep in quantity.”
“All right, you’re very long-winded.”
“What? You sound like you’re in bad shape.” Mandy asked sensitively.
