After being attacked by the rich young ladies with hatchets, I chose to enter "sage mode".

Of course, the main reason is that he can't let her know about his overdose of sleeping pills, and now he absolutely can't let this girl know about Qing Sisi's existence.

The way to deal with Murong Liyue is to use her twisted personality to deal with her, and to take advantage of her soft-heartedness.

These were all experiences Bai Yu had accumulated in his previous life; otherwise, he wouldn't know how to deal with this girl.

Chapter 161 Unexpected

Having not slept well the night before, and with her body not yet fully recovered, Bai Yu was still somewhat weak, her complexion appearing pale and showing clear signs of illness.

Even so, he had made a promise to meet Murong Liyue that day, so he was determined to meet this girl.

This girl has a strong and serious personality; she'll get very angry if I don't even keep my promise to her on the agreed-upon day.

It's already difficult to handle a woman when she's throwing a tantrum, let alone someone like Murong Liyue, whose thoughts are often hard to fathom.

Sitting in the ride-hailing car, Bai Yu dozed off for a while before arriving near Murong Liyue's company.

Standing by the roadside, looking at the familiar route he had taken with this girl last time, Bai Yu took out his phone and made a call to her.

The call was answered very quickly after it was dialed.

Where?

As soon as the call connected, the girl's voice came through as always, cool and aloof, and as always, she spoke in short, concise sentences without any hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu raised her hand to rub her temples before replying.

“I’m on the roadside near your company, the same road where I carried you home last time.”

"Let's go to the coffee shop, the one we went to last time. Where are we going? I'll be waiting for you."

After saying that, Murong Liyue hung up the phone immediately.

Looking down at the phone that had been abruptly hung up on, I realized that although this girl would usually hang up on me first, she would always say something sweet before doing so. But today, for some reason, she was unusually cold, even giving the impression of a superior talking to a subordinate. She finished her business and hung up immediately.

Despite her doubts, Bai Yu still had to hurry to the agreed-upon meeting place. Only by meeting this girl could she find out the specific reason why she was acting strangely.

Walking along the company's sidewalk during the morning rush hour, this was the first time Bai Yu had come to the vicinity of these company areas so early. She had only thought that there were a lot of people during the morning rush hour, but she realized that there were more than just a few people when she actually came to see it.

Despite the noise and the shouts of breakfast vendors on the roadside, we quickly arrived at the same coffee shop as before.

Standing outside the coffee shop, Bai Yu gazed at the beautiful figure sitting by the window inside, unable to look away.

He was looking at Murong Liyue, but today she was dressed in an unusually aloof style. She wore a blue sleeveless tank top with a white sun-protective jacket, black floor-length pants, and black flat shoes. Everything she wore looked so high-class, especially her cool and aloof face, which added a unique charm to the high-class look.

However, Bai Yu also noticed a hint of worry and something different about Murong Liyue as she looked down at her coffee cup and stirred it.

This sorrowful expression was an emotion that had never appeared on Murong Liyue's face before.

This girl mostly has no expression, and even when she's unhappy, it's usually because of me. I've never seen her so worried before. Could it be because of me again?

She stepped forward and pushed open the glass door of the coffee shop. A ding-a-ring sounded by the door to remind people to come in, and then Bai Yu saw the female waitress from last time looking at her.

Before she could even ask him, Bai Yu raised her hand and held up one index finger.

"An Americano."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards where Murong Liyue was sitting.

He walked over to Murong Liyue's side and was about to sit down opposite her when the girl grabbed his trouser leg and her cold voice followed.

"Sit next to me."

Bai Yu glanced at Murong Liyue, who was looking up at her. Her pale red eyes revealed no extra emotion. After hesitating for a second, Bai Yu did not refuse.

"President, school starts in a few days. What are your plans after school starts? Aren't you graduating around the same time? Have you thought about what you'll do after that?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Liyue nodded and did not linger on the topic that Bai Yu had brought up. Instead, she took out her phone and opened a video for him.

Looking down at the phone the girl had pushed in front of her, Bai Yu frowned as soon as she glanced at the video on the screen.

The video showed a wedding ceremony, but the location was not a normal place at all, because the people in the video were Bai Yu and Si Yu.

Although the video was shot from a distance, you could still vaguely see your own and Si Yu's faces.

Bai Yu never expected that her wedding at a cemetery, where she was dressed in red, would be photographed, let alone that it would go viral.

"Is that you in there?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat, as if his heart had stopped. However, he did not deny it, because there was no point in denying it at this moment.

"It's me, and... Sister Siyu too."

After saying that, Bai Yu looked up at Murong Liyue, who was taking a sip of her coffee. The girl's demeanor was surprisingly calm.

Don't you want to explain?

This sentence was no longer so cold; instead, it was unusually indifferent, and anyone who heard it could tell that the girl was angry.

However, Bai Yu really had nothing to explain, not because he didn't want to, but because it was all true, and the more he explained, the more complicated things would become.

Women are peculiar creatures. Whether you explain or not, when she wants to get angry at you, everything she does is wrong, let alone admitting that she is wrong in the first place.

"I have nothing to explain, just as the president sees it."

"If we can get married in a place like that, then we'll fulfill your promise to get our marriage certificate."

She stood up, grabbed Bai Yu's wrist, and walked out.

Bai Yu did not resist when she saw this, because it was impossible to get a marriage certificate now, since she was not old enough to do so.

However, Bai Yu was too naive. After Murong Liyue pulled him out of the coffee shop, she did not take a taxi to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Instead, she walked directly towards the company building across the street from the coffee shop.

"President, where are you taking me?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Liyue ignored him completely and continued to pull him into the company building.

Having lived through several lifetimes, Bai Yu had a general idea of ​​what Murong Liyue wanted to do now.

Normally, this girl would be about to go crazy, but her expression is just angry, which is very abnormal. Could she be cured? That's even more unlikely.

So dragging Bai Yu into the company building means either imprisoning her or causing her to completely fall ill there.

Feeling the fingernails that Murong Liyue was pulling and digging deep into his skin on his wrist, Bai Yu frowned in pain, but he didn't utter a sound.

In his previous life, he escaped from that dark cellar and learned that Si Yu and Qing Sisi had left. He once hated Murong Liyue and even felt that if it weren't for this girl imprisoning him, he would never have lost them.

But it wasn't until the very end, when she was leaving, that she truly realized that none of this was Murong Liyue's fault. The fault always lay with her; she simply loved herself very much.

As Murong Liyue entered the company, all the employees and cleaners around were startled by the sight of this young lady dragging a man in angrily.

However, no one dared to approach or disturb Murong Liyue when she entered.

Murong Liyue usually gives people the impression of being unapproachable, even cold. Now that she's in such a huff, no one dares to approach her.

Bai Yu silently followed the girl and soon entered the elevator, swiped his card, and arrived at the 38th floor. This floor was not the secret space or floor that Bai Yu had imagined, nor was it an office floor. Instead, it was a large flat with the decoration of a normal home, complete with appliances such as a TV, refrigerator, and range hood.

After bringing Bai Yu to this floor, Murong Liyue still didn't let go of his hand, but instead pulled him into the bedroom.

With a bang, the door slammed shut. Only then did Murong Liyue release Bai Yu's wrist, which had been marked with five fingernail marks.

Looking down at his wrist, which was being deeply pinched and was already bleeding, Bai Yu remained calm, because he knew everything Murong Liyue was planning.

Turning around and sitting in the boss's chair next to her, Murong Liyue leaned back and crossed her long legs. Although she tried to appear calm, she couldn't hide the look in her eyes that seemed to want to devour Bai Yu.

"Bai Yu, you need to explain this to me properly right now. What exactly happened with that video of Si Yu?"

"Let me be frank. My wedding with Sister Siyu is a promise I made to her. A promise is a promise, and I have to keep it. Even if this promise seems immoral in the video, heaven and earth and her parents are our witnesses. It was a wedding that belonged only to us, and it didn't need anyone else's judgment."

As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, Murong Liyue remained surprisingly calm.

Frowning slightly, Bai Yu felt that Murong Liyue would definitely have a breakdown if she heard what she said at this time. She had already been so difficult to control herself outside, how could she possibly hold back now?

But he was still no match for Murong Liyue Feng Baiyu; his imagination was too naive.

At this moment, Murong Liyue seemed to be completely normal, not even showing any signs of agitation. At most, her gaze towards him was somewhat eerie.

Little did Bai Yu know that Murong Liyue's next thought would be ten times more serious than he had anticipated.

"Since you're so committed to keeping your promises and agreements, then... what about getting a marriage certificate with me?"

Staring at Murong Liyue's aloof face, her long blue hair pinned back with a wooden hairpin, she was undeniably beautiful, but Bai Yu felt something was very wrong, absolutely wrong.

"President, you seem a little different than before. If you're angry or want to do something, just be direct. Your calm demeanor is actually making me a little scared."

Standing up, Murong Liyue reached for the air conditioner remote on her desk, pressed the button, turned the fan speed to the maximum, and lowered the temperature to the lowest setting of sixteen degrees Celsius.

He reached up and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Bai Yu was indeed a little hot, but the next moment, as he stood right under the air conditioner, he felt something was off the moment the cold air blew out.

He sniffed lightly and detected a faint, pungent odor, so faint that he could almost ignore it.

Bai Yu has a very sensitive nose. Even the faintest cherry blossom scent, which most people would overlook, can be clearly smelled by him. He can also smell the different scents in the air conditioning.

Although he didn't know what this very faint, pungent smell was, Bai Yu was certain that it couldn't be anything good.

Moreover, judging from Murong Liyue's current calm demeanor and the fact that she doesn't even seem to be having an attack, there must be something wrong here.

But Bai Yu found out too late. The moment he caught a whiff of that wind, he knew he was doomed to never leave that room.

As soon as I looked up at Murong Liyue, I saw her raise her hand and immediately turn off the air conditioner and cover her mouth and nose with her clothes.

"President..."

Before he could finish speaking, a wave of dizziness swept over him, and the next moment everything went black; he knew nothing more.

Looking at Bai Yu's limp body, Murong Liyue's pale red eyes finally revealed the sickness and love that she had been hiding all along.

Bai Yu's plan was quite clear: even if Murong Liyue took him to a private room later, he would be able to resist and even subdue the girl.

But he never expected this girl to resort to such methods. Of course, Bai Yu also never expected that Murong Liyue's memories would be completely awakened.

If her memories hadn't fully returned, she would have gone insane immediately. But it was precisely because she had those memories that she was able to control herself and know how to more successfully keep Bai Yu within her grasp for a lifetime.

To her, Bai Yu was her possession, even more important than her own life, and she wouldn't give him up to anyone else.

He turned around and pulled back the curtains in the room, and also opened the French windows to expel the toxic fumes from the room.

Squatting down and looking at Bai Yu's limp, unconscious state, Murong Liyue couldn't help but lick her rosy lips with the tip of her tongue.

"You left me last time, but I won't let you leave again this time. Even if it means death, I'll devour you whole!"

Covering her flushed cheeks, Murong Liyue said that when she said "eat," she meant eating in a physical sense, not that she was here to play.

The fact that this girl would grab a handful of ashes and eat them after Bai Yu died in her previous life shows that she really would eat them.

This kind of mental illness was far beyond Bai Yu's expectations, because Bai Yu never thought that even his ashes would not be spared by this girl after his death.

Murong Liyue reached out and took off Bai Yu's clothes and pants one by one. After dragging him to the bed, she handcuffed and shackled him to the bed in a spread-eagle position.
