Everyone in the Helena Technology start-up team knows one thing:

Their young and talented founders are the second generation of the most eccentric group in the world.

Unlike those second-generation people who rely on the background of their family and always know how to enjoy themselves leisurely and calmly, You Lie is a complete workaholic, and during the critical period of every important project, he can almost never sleep, desperately like a self-made gold collector, with no room and no way out-

In the field of technology, he is an ascetic who practices calmness to the extreme, and in business he can also be a desperate outlaw.

But on rainy nights, the workaholic who could sleep only three hours a day for a week and lived almost in the company disappeared everywhere they could see, and was replaced by a trapped beast that could only hide in the depths of the earth, hiding in the house, with the doors and windows closed, the lights turned off, the rain covered, and the sonata raised to the highest level in the sound......

Only then will he not be haunted by nightmares.

Tonight is already a dream that has not been seen in a long time.

It was pouring rain on the night, and when he learned about Xia Kitedie's condition, he was in a villa on the outskirts of Cangcheng, and the assistant who had sent him back in advance had already returned to his hotel in the city.

The rain was like a waterfall, and the outside of the base in the middle of the night was even more barren.

The thought of her being there alone, not knowing where she would go tonight and what would happen, made him harder to control himself than he had been when he had a nightmare.

This was the first time in seven years that You Lie had personally driven on a rainy night, and fortunately, there were few people and cars on the road due to the heavy rain, otherwise it would have been a great luck to be able to drive outside the base intact.

It's just that what happened next was all out of control.

He had experienced countless nightmares in seven years, but not once had she been by his side, and in the heat and drowsiness he instinctively thought that she was still a dream illusion.

Almost......

You Lie held against the cold wall of tiles.

He remembered clearly that at the moment of awakening, the ribbon of the bathrobe on Xia Kite's waist had been rudely pulled away by him, and the unwisps of snow were hidden under the haze of the bathrobe.

Just a little bit.

He would do irreparable things to her.

If he did, his butterflies would probably disappear into his world again.

But he continued to delusionally.

Probably crazy.

“……”

You Lie's cheekbones trembled slightly, and he lowered his hand and twisted the switch towards the cold water to the limit.

He had waited for seven years of such a long eternal night, and he did not hesitate to spend a few mornings and dusks.

He wants the dawn to come.

He wants his butterflies to never fly out of his world again.

In the faint sound of shower water in the bathroom, Xia Butterfly lay quietly, dejectedly, and motionlessly on the soft bed of the hotel.

If it weren't for the fact that she opened the room.

If it weren't for her ID card, she wouldn't have been able to open a second room.

If it weren't for the clothes she could wear, they had just been washed and dried and hung by the closet in the dry area of the bathroom.

Then she should have escaped by now.

I don't know what You Lie will think of her, taking advantage of his shameless ex-girlfriend who has a high fever and is unconscious, deliberately opens a room, takes advantage of the situation, and tries to take the opportunity to climb into bed and reunite?

And if You Huaijin had known, the girl who had sworn that she would never appear in front of You Lie again would not even be able to pay off his debts and couldn't wait to climb into his son's bed......

Then she may have no shame in the world, so she can only apologize with death.

Xia Butterfly sighed lightly, raised her hand, and rested her wrist on her slightly heated forehead.

The cold dial made her feel emotional.

Xia Kite's eyelashes twitched, the tails of her eyes were slightly upturned, her wrists raised, and her fingertips brushed over the edge of the base of the watch.

After going back and forth a few times, my mind calmed down.

Life has to go on.

It's just an accident, it's not a big deal.

Tomorrow, You Lie is still the founder of Helena, who is far away from her, and she is also the smallest project of his company's countless cooperation projects, and the most insignificant ex-girlfriend among the countless people who have passed by him.

That's all, good.

Xia Butterfly slowly did psychological counseling work for herself, and slowly adjusted her bathrobe and sat up from the hotel bed.

When the neckline of the bathrobe was closed, Xia Butterfly sizzled softly.

She touched her fingertips carefully against her neck.

There's no blood, but if you rub the rough cloth through it, it hurts a little bit.

…… Is You Lie a dog?

How could the pampered fiancée of the famous family endure his dog temper in bed, Xia Kitese tried her best to ignore the sour and stuffy pain in her heart.

She got up from the side of the bed and turned on the light in the room.

By the way, after tidying up the bed that seemed to be the scene of the crime, Xia Kites's short-term accumulated physical strength was exhausted again, this time the stomach was really striking and protesting, and the empty sound was enough to wake up the tenant in the next room.

So Xia Butterfly sat on the sofa, peeled an energy bar, and soothed her empty stomach.

Ten minutes later.

Xia Butterfly frowned at the hot drink in her hand and looked in the direction of the bathroom.

As it had been ten minutes before, there was no movement at all, except for the sound of rustling water.

…… You can't faint, right?

Although she felt that the possibility was very small, Xia Kitedie's face changed slightly.

She wiped her hands with a tissue, got up, and walked over to the bathroom door.

"Swim... Total? ”

What she just went through makes it a little difficult for her to keep this title for the time being.

A strange kind of thief-mindedness.

Obviously, she was a victim who couldn't resist immediately just now.

There was still only the sound of water in the bathroom.

Silence, not a hint of response.

Xia Kitese's eyes were a little imperceptibly panicked, she subconsciously raised her hand, and pressed her five fingers against the wooden bathroom sliding door: "You Lie? ”

“……”

"You Lie, are you alright?"

“……”

"If you don't talk again, I'm going in!"

“……”

There was still only the sound of water in the bathroom.

Xia Kitedie's last trace of patience turned to anxiety, and she used her fingertips to open the wooden door without hesitation.

"Wow."

Saved her strength.

The bathroom sliding door was pulled open from the inside.

The light from inside the door, which turned on all the lights, suddenly fell, and Xia Kite, who was standing in the corridor of the dark area, subconsciously hid in the shadow blocked by You Lie.

Then she came back to her senses, hesitated, and lifted her eyes.

The man was still wearing a shirt and trousers, and it seemed that he had not even taken them off, as if he was standing directly under the shower. His water-stained hair was loose, and his dark eyes brushed down his thin cold and light red eyelids, and he couldn't tell whether it was hot or cold against the light.

The moment the door opened, he was standing behind the door, not more than twenty centimeters away from her, and Xia Butterfly could almost feel the temperature of the residual water vapor on his body.

It's cold.

Xia Kites's reason as soon as she regained was frozen off the line.

"You're having a fever," she said, raising her eyes to look at him like a beautiful firework of transparency, "Are you crazy at this time?" ”

“……”

You Lie stared at her silently.

The black eyes that had just been frozen by the water vapor melted in ink, as if a few shades darker, his eyelashes fluttered, and then he drooped down in a cold arc.

"Miss Xia has not forgotten," he said indifferently, "as you said, we have no relationship outside of work. That doesn't have to be falsely cared for each other either. ”

There was already a deep nasal tone in his voice.

Xia Kitese was so angry that she bit her lip: "If Mr. You dies in my room like this, then we will have to add the relationship between the victim and the suspect outside of work." ”

“……”

She didn't bother to argue with this brain-burning man anymore.

Xia Kitese turned around, her face turned cold with anger, she walked to the closet, pulled it open, and took out another bathrobe inside.

Holding the bathrobe and turning around, Xia Butterfly was slightly stunned.

You Lie had already come out, leaning against the narrow entrance wall outside the bathroom, and he looked at her quietly and silently with emotion from his half-wet black hair.

That look in her eyes for a brief moment made her feel a familiar silence.

Xia Kitedie's expression was a little stiff, and she hastily avoided his gaze.

So the afterglow glanced over him.

Then she froze—

The white shirt on You Lie's body was soaked with water, and at this moment it completely fit the contours of his undulating texture, and even the clear and clean abdominal muscles were obvious, and from the slender and smooth mermaid line downward, all the looming Gu Ren scenery was tucked into the black trousers.

Xia Butterfly looked at the location of his heart.

The shirt there was half-draped and half-pasted, rubbing a deep blue on the cold white skin.
