When his wicked ex-girlfriend beckoned him, CEO Li lost control!

Lin Zhixia slumped her shoulders. It was all over. Right now, all Li Chengyuan could think about was Zhao Dachui.

She could see that Li Chengyuan was truly angry; his brows were furrowed, and his handsome face was tense, looking even colder than usual.

"Please sit down and let me explain."

It's just sophistry.

Li Chengyuan listened to Lin Zhixia and sat down.

Lin Zhixia said in a very serious tone, "Think about it, rich people these days like to investigate others. They'll find out everything. We're so in debt, what will the boss think of me when he finds out?"

"Also, who knows how many people you've offended in the past? What if they know you and find out I'm your girlfriend? Won't they hold me responsible for this?"

Li Chengyuan looked at her with a skeptical expression: "Is that really all?"

Lin Zhixia was amused by his naivety: "Otherwise what? Do you think I'm going to go out and find a rich man? Even if I wanted to find a rich man, I'd have to make sure he would even look at me."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengyuan's dark eyes darkened.

"Why are you belittling yourself like this? What's wrong with you? You're beautiful, have a great figure, a good personality, are hardworking and ambitious, can cook, dress well, and are good at managing a household..."

As he spoke the last few words, Li Chengyuan's voice grew softer and softer.

Lin Zhixia crossed her arms and raised her chin at him: "Go on, keep talking, let's see how you talk nonsense with such a straight face."

Li Chengyuan paused for a second, then added: "In short, you're full of merits."

Lin Zhixia couldn't help but give Li Chengyuan a thumbs up after hearing this: "It's a shame you're not in sales with that mouth of yours."

Thinking back to Li Chengyuan's past, his mouth was so sharp, it was like he was poisoned by pesticide.

It's hard to imagine what Li Chengyuan will think when he regains his memory and realizes he actually praised someone so highly.

Thinking of this, a chill ran down her spine, and she snapped out of her thoughts: "I'd better hurry up and pack."

The two of them packed up their belongings together. It would have been better if they hadn't packed. Once they started packing, Lin Zhixia realized just how extravagant the original owner of the body was.

On the left, there was a woven bag on the ground filled with all her clothes, while Li Chengyuan only had a small bag next to it, containing only enough clothes for changing into for all four seasons.

She scratched her head a little embarrassedly: "Um, I'll buy you a few more outfits when I get my salary next month."

She felt a little embarrassed seeing this. If she hadn't known how crazy he used to be, Lin Zhixia would have told him the truth in one go.

But it was only for a moment, and she quickly suppressed this thought.

This is not the time to act impulsively. She desperately tried to convince herself that the Li Chengyuan she was talking about was not the real him.

Li Chengyuan packed up his things, but didn't seem to care much.

"It's okay, you don't need to buy me anything. I wear my work clothes every day, so I don't have much time to wear my own clothes."

"Just buy more for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhixia felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She felt like a heinous criminal. If Li Chengyuan hadn't met her, he would probably still be living the decadent life of a prince.

Now it's like I'm being forced to do manual labor for free.

She took a deep breath and patted Li Chengyuan on the shoulder: "Li Chengyuan, don't think like that. Even if we wear work clothes to work, we still need to wear them when we go out to buy groceries or something after get off work, right?"

"Besides, you're my boyfriend. If others see this, they'll think I'm abusing my boyfriend."

Li Chengyuan glanced at her, a fleeting look of surprise crossing his eyes, before nodding.

"Okay, then we'll go buy some next time we get paid, and we'll buy you two things you like too."

Lin Zhixia wanted to say that she had so many clothes in her closet that she couldn't wear them all even if she changed one every day, but she felt that saying it would spoil Li Chengyuan's mood.

She eventually nodded in agreement for the time being.

After the two of them finished packing, Li Chengyuan first took down some of the larger items, such as pots and pans, and then reminded Lin Zhixia.

"You can take the lighter ones; I'll take the heavier ones."

Lin Zhixia's build was indeed not good enough to carry heavy things, so she put some small items on the car first, and dragged the things she couldn't lift on the ground.

As a result, he used too much force, his heel hit the threshold, and he staggered, about to fall flat on his backside.

The next second, a pair of strong arms reached around her waist and supported her firmly from behind. A warm, firm chest pressed tightly against her back, and a faint scent of pine wood wafted over her.

The man's palm was burning hot, and through the thin fabric, it pressed against her waist. Lin Zhixia felt a slight pain in her waist area.

Whether she was startled or not, she froze on the spot, able to clearly feel his steady and powerful heartbeat behind her back.

Li Chengyuan could also feel the tension in her body, and a faint blush crept onto her ears.

He grabbed her waist and lifted her up, then looked down to check her heels.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Lin Zhixia turned her head to the side, and the man's stray hairs brushed against her cheek. She quickly reached out and gently pushed him away.

"It's nothing, thank you for earlier."

Seeing that she was covered in sweat, Li Chengyuan pulled her to sit down on a chair next to him.

"I'll take care of the rest. There's not much left. You used to hate doing these chores."

Lin Zhixia watched him squat down, hold her ankle, and check if she was injured, and a wave of bitterness welled up in her heart.

She called his name softly.

"Li Chengyuan?"

Li Chengyuan looked up: "Hmm?"

Lin Zhixia stared at him with unreadable eyes: "What would you do if one day you found out I lied to you?"
