The CEO's wife is reborn and vows to pay for her crimes in blood.

Chapter 46 This boss is too cunning

"What kind of outrageous design is this? Two buildings separated by only one window? Did you arrange it like this on purpose?" Chu Xinglan looked suspicious. After all, Gu Ye bought the house, and he might have bought it because he wanted it to be like this.

Gu Ye knew it was normal for Chu Xinglan to suspect him like this, which was why he didn't want Chu Xinglan to know that he actually lived here as well.

"This house was bought by Xue Bai, and it really has nothing to do with me."

Gu Ye raised both hands and swore that his only responsibility was to pay.

Chu Xinglan had no way to refute it; why would a boss like him need to do something like buying a house himself?

"Now that we're neighbors, girl, would you like to come in and have a cup of tea?"

Gu Ye rested his hand on the door frame, casually looking down at Chu Xinglan.

Chu Xinglan felt her face burning hot; if she stayed there any longer, her face would only get redder and redder.

"Forget it, I can't be bothered to argue with you. It's getting late, I'm going back to sleep!"

Chu Xinglan said angrily and turned to leave.

Suddenly, Gu Ye grabbed her around the waist and pinned her against the door frame.

"Gu Ye..." Chu Xinglan was startled. Seeing that Gu Ye was about to lean down and kiss her, tears streamed down her face.

Seeing the tears on Chu Xinglan's face, Gu Ye's mind cleared up instantly.

"Lanlan, you have no idea how much I want to...hold you in my arms!"

His voice was a little hoarse as he gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks with his fingers.

Girl... I've endured this for two lifetimes. Do you know how thirsty I am?

Chu Xinglan sensed Gu Ye's deep affection, but she couldn't reciprocate and could only run away.

"You've had too much to drink, you're talking nonsense!" Chu Xinglan hurriedly pushed her away and ran away as if fleeing.

Gu Ye leaned against the door, looking at Chu Xinglan who was like a headless fly, and chuckled helplessly.

I actually prefer to get drunk myself, so you can be in front of me all the time.

Gu Ye closed the door and went into the bedroom.

At this moment, Chu Xinglan returned to her bedroom. She glanced at Gu Ye standing by the window, then pulled down the curtains sharply to block Gu Ye's burning gaze.

After drawing the curtains, Chu Xinglan's heart remained restless for a long time.

When did Gu Ye become so good at flirting? He's completely different from the person he was in his past life.

In her past life, he was always serious and aloof in front of her, which made her feel an indescribable sense of oppression. Especially after she had someone else in her heart, Gu Ye's unromantic demeanor made her feel even more suffocated. In this life... the deep affection in Gu Ye's eyes was so ardent and straightforward that she was completely overwhelmed.

But all she wants now is to protect the baby in her belly and never let her leave her again!

Chu Xinglan walked to the bedside, gently touched the baby's sleeping face, and looked at him with a look of relief.

"Xinglan, good morning."

At the company entrance, Chu Xinglan met Gu Ye and Assistant Xue again.

Chu Xinglan finally understood why they were such a coincidence. Living under the same roof, how could they not often bump into each other at the company entrance?

"Good morning!" Chu Xinglan replied sleepily to Xue Bai.

Did you stay up very late last night? You seem so tired.

Xue Bai asked with concern, and as he reached out to Chu Xinglan, he suddenly heard Gu Ye pretend to cough lightly, so he quickly withdrew his hand.

so close!

"You still dare to talk? How could you possibly give me and the boss..."

Chu Xinglan was furious and wanted to confront Xue Bai, but then several colleagues passed by, making her swallow her words.

"Good morning, boss! Good morning, Assistant Xue!"

Chu Xinglan made a gesture that said she would settle the score with him later, and followed Gu Ye and Xue Bai into the private elevator.

"Did you do this on purpose?" As soon as the elevator doors closed, Chu Xinglan began to settle scores.

"What did I do on purpose?" Xue Bai looked completely bewildered.

"You deliberately bought my house and the boss's house in the same place, separated by only a window?" Chu Xinglan glared at Xue Bai through gritted teeth.

"Really? Is that so? I didn't know!" Xue Bai pretended to be ignorant.

To be honest, he did it on purpose. When buying the houses, he found these two house types to be very interesting, so he directly negotiated the purchase contracts for the two houses. It was because of this that he was able to buy a house for each of them in a very short time.

To be honest, after inspecting the house, the boss praised him for his good work and gave him a bonus of three million.

"You're still pretending!" Chu Xinglan wasn't stupid; she wouldn't believe his act.

"Hehe!" Seeing that he couldn't fool him, Xue Bai could only chuckle and try to change the subject again, "Xinglan, you didn't just realize that the owner lives across from you, did you?"

Xue Bai seemed to realize something and instead questioned Chu Xinglan in a strange manner.

"What I was doing was..." Chu Xinglan bit her lip. She was indeed too stupid. She had been living there for several days before she realized that Gu Ye had been watching her.

"So, you really discovered something?" Xue Bai said with an exaggerated expression.

"Don't try to distract me. What are you up to? How could you make me live in a place like that?" Chu Xinglan wasn't going to let it go. She put her hands on her hips, looking like a shrew.

"The boss is right here, you should at least be mindful of your image!"

Xue Bai reminded Chu Xinglan.

Chu Xinglan quickly lowered her hands. The thought of Gu Ye seeing her fierce appearance made her feel so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

"You're quite cute like this!" Gu Ye just smiled, completely ignoring Xue Bai's life or death.

"Boss, I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but you can't be so biased, can you? Besides, all the suffering I've endured today is for you, and you're not even going to help me?" Xue Bai said, speechless.

He's caught in the middle, isn't he? He meant well, wanting to help his boss get ahead of the competition, but instead he's been kicked while he's down. It's outrageous!

Gu Ye pretended not to see Xue Bai's mournful gaze, but when the elevator doors opened, he still gently pulled Chu Xinglan away.

"Alright, stop making things difficult for Xue Bai."

"Let go! What if someone sees you pulling and tugging like this?" Chu Xinglan hurriedly shook off Gu Ye's hand, her face turning red again.

"Am I not a human being? I see you don't seem to be trying to hide anything from me."

Xue Bai blocked the elevator door with his body and smiled.

Gu Ye, finding him in the way, pushed him directly into the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, and Xue Bai, who didn't have time to get out of the elevator, was sent directly back to the first floor.

"Damn, I thought he really wanted to help me, but it turns out he just wanted to take advantage of me. What a cunning boss!"

Xue Bai clicked his tongue and shook his head, then pressed the button for the next floor again.

"Now we're not afraid of anyone." Gu Ye moved closer to Chu Xinglan.

Chu Xinglan was so frightened that she took a step back and was pressed against the wall.

"I'm not referring to Xue Bai!"
