Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 553 I Agree to Everything You Ask

Gong Xiaoyu’s last bit of hope for him was completely shattered.

When she was with him, for his sake, she had done so many things that even she despised herself for.

She gave her first time to him, deceived her parents to live with him, cooked and cleaned for him, changed herself endlessly to please him. He promised to give her the best in the world, but told his mother they were just ordinary colleagues.

At that moment, her heart turned cold. How foolish she had been before, and how pathetically foolish!

Now she had woken up, trying to reclaim a bit of her dignity, to tell him that she can live well even without love. But why did he have to trample on her self-esteem like this!

Was she being cheap, allowing herself to be hurt by him again and again, yet still acting as his personal assistant, letting him boss her around at will!

"Yue Xiaoyang, you come from a high-born family, unlike us ordinary folks, born to inherit family glory. Do you know how much effort I put into establishing Si Yuan Education by myself, how long I had to negotiate with the Gu Family for a new course, how many sleepless nights I had worrying about annual revenue, dealing with large-scale refund crises and being ostracized by peers... I pulled through all of it, and now you’re threatening me with Si Yuan’s research achievements, asking me to serve you!"

Gong Xiaoyu recalled countless lonely battles at dawn. Yan City is a metropolis full of opportunities and risks, with companies being founded every day and others disappearing forever. She struggled to achieve a bit in this cold and ruthless city, all of it mixed with her blood and tears.

Si Yuan Education is her carefully nurtured child. In the eyes of these aristocratic young masters like Yue Xiaoyang, it naturally is insignificant. They talked about acquisitions and mergers as if her efforts meant nothing. Did the efforts she had put in really mean nothing to them?

Gong Xiaoyu’s tears fell. She wasn’t used to crying in front of others, but now she couldn’t control her anger.

She wiped her tears hard, but more and more tears kept coming.

She said, "Yue Xiaoyang, what did I ever do to you that you can’t leave me alone!"

Yue Xiaoyang’s heart twisted in pain. He didn’t return to make her cry. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Xiaoyu, don’t cry. I’m not trying to threaten you, I just..." wanted to find an excuse to keep you by my side.

He wanted to wipe her tears, but she was too far away, he couldn’t reach her.

Yue Xiaoyang hated his own uselessness. He really was a waste, he couldn’t even comfort her!

What right did he have to try to win her back, like this?

"Xiaoyu, if you don’t want to sign, then don’t sign," Yue Xiaoyang gazed at her obsessively. After today, he might no longer have a valid reason to see her anymore.

"I can agree to anything. If you don’t want to see me in the future, I won’t appear in front of you. I promise."

Gong Xiaoyu thought she must be hearing things. What did Yue Xiaoyang just say?

She stared at him blankly, her reddened eyes made Yue Xiaoyang feel pained and guilty. He really shouldn’t have come back.

He had thought too simply, thinking that after she and Yu Zheng broke up, he would have a chance.

He reached out his hand, "Come here, give me the document, I’ll sign it."

He completely backed down, without any intention of negotiating or making things difficult.

Gong Xiaoyu, bewitched by his voice, dumbly walked towards him.

At this moment, the office door was pushed open. You Lifen walked in angrily.

She was holding something in her hand, and the secretary followed behind, shouting, "Miss You, I’m going to call security!"

You Lifen took a cup and splashed water at Gong Xiaoyu, "Gong Xiaoyu, you shameless woman, still trying to seduce Yu Zheng after breaking up? Don’t you know he’s my boyfriend now!"

Gong Xiaoyu didn’t react in time to dodge. Yue Xiaoyang forcefully pulled her wrist, and she crashed into his arms. Yue Xiaoyang turned over to shield her underneath him.

The water in the cup splashed all over Yue Xiaoyang’s back. He didn’t even frown, holding her tightly against his chest.

A few drops of water slid down his back and dripped onto Gong Xiaoyu’s leg. The water was still scalding.

She looked up at him, Yue Xiaoyang’s face was growing paler.

Gong Xiaoyu panicked, "Yue Xiaoyang, are you okay?"

You Lifen screamed and dropped the cup, "Blood, so much blood!"

She just wanted to teach Gong Xiaoyu a lesson by splashing water, she didn’t expect such an accident to happen!

The secretary also saw it and went to support the general manager, trembling as she spoke, "General Manager, are you okay?"

Gong Xiaoyu’s mind went blank. What blood, why would he bleed from getting splashed with water?

She pushed Yue Xiaoyang away and saw a deep cut on his left hand from the utility knife on the sofa, blood gushing out.

The utility knife was something she had casually tossed on the sofa earlier. He had been so focused on protecting her that he ignored the knife.

Yue Xiaoyang leaned against the sofa. He glanced at her, "Did you get burned?"

Gong Xiaoyu’s tears flowed even more, "You fool, your hand is like this, why are you asking about me!"

The secretary brought a first aid kit. Gong Xiaoyu took out the gauze to bandage him. The cut crossed his entire palm, deep enough to see the bone.

Touching his warm blood, her whole body trembled uncontrollably and she cried, "What do we do, there’s so much blood. We need to call an ambulance."

Yue Xiaoyang’s face was pale, sweat dripping from his forehead. He told the secretary, "Please escort Miss Gong out, I’ll handle it myself." He didn’t want to scare her.

After all, he was a doctor. Even with less mobile legs, bandaging a wound himself was still manageable.

The secretary hurriedly asked, "General Manager, should I call an ambulance?"

"No, we can’t let the media know."

Secretary Li said, "Then I’ll call the family doctor to come up." She turned to make the call.

You Lifen felt her heart was about to stop. She really didn’t do it on purpose!

"Yue Xiaoyang, what can I do for you?"

Gong Xiaoyu pushed her out, "You Lifen, why do you always have to drag others into your mess!"

You Lifen was wracked with guilt. How could she have known it would hurt him!

Yue Xiaoyang gritted his teeth and wrapped the bandage around his hand. The bandage soon became soaked with blood.

Gong Xiaoyu’s hands were covered in his blood. She was so panicked she didn’t know what to do, "Yue Xiaoyang, you should have just let me be splashed with water, why did you have to protect me!"

The secretary probably told the family doctor about the general manager’s injury condition. She checked the general manager’s back, "That water was just boiled, it definitely will cause burns!"

Gong Xiaoyu was filled with panic, "No, we must go to the hospital. It could easily get infected under these conditions!"

Yue Xiaoyang wanted to wipe her tears, but when he raised his hand and saw the blood, he retracted it, "Xiaoyu, you should go back. I’ll finish signing the document and send it to Si Yuan for you."

At this moment, how could Gong Xiaoyu possibly leave, "Yue Xiaoyang, you’re doing this on purpose to make me worry, aren’t you?"

The secretary saw the general manager’s condition and couldn’t help but defend him, "Miss Gong, our general manager went all out to help you, how can you still blame him?"
