The obsessive CEO's white moonlight is me

Chapter 3 Fuzzy Memory

"While you were away, Tang Zhou's temper was really volatile. No one could control him except you."

The "Tang Zhou" she spoke of was a legendary figure in the School of Engineering. Tang Zhou was a prominent figure in the new School of Engineering, a top student, and also a student that teachers couldn't control. His family background made him uncontrollable. He was a fighter, sometimes covered in bruises, and cold to everyone, yet he transformed into a young man experiencing first love only when facing her. Only she knew that Tang Zhou's transformation stemmed from an accident he experienced as a child. Back then, Tang Zhou was an innocent and kind child, but a serious accident changed his fate. His parents died in a car accident, leaving him alone. From then on, Tang Zhou became taciturn, using indifference and violence to mask his inner pain and helplessness. She was the only one who could see his vulnerable side. He would look at her tenderly, his eyes filled with love. He would do anything for her, regardless of the consequences. Even when she was bullied, he would rush to protect her without hesitation.

However, he never expressed his feelings to her. He was afraid of rejection, and even more afraid of losing her as a friend. So, he chose to silently stay by her side until she discovered his love.

However, even now, she only has fragmented memories in her mind. The image of Tang Zhou that she spoke of overlaps and becomes blurred in her mind.

Inside the vast corporation, there is a spacious and dignified conference room. This is the heart of the Fu Group—a major and influential jewelry enterprise.

The company's legend began with its previous chairman, Mr. Fu. Back then, with his wisdom and courage, he started from scratch and successfully built a top-tier jewelry brand, "Tloml." Among its most eye-catching pieces is its unique diamond ring, said to guarantee a lifetime of companionship and unwavering devotion to one's beloved. This unique design was inspired by the chairman's deeply loved wife, and this profound affection has been passed down through generations.

Now, this mission has been passed to Fu Shiyue. As the heir to the family business, he shoulders the heavy responsibility of carrying forward the legacy of his ancestors. Every time he gazes at the diamond ring that symbolizes eternal love, Fu Shiyue can feel the unwavering pursuit of beautiful emotions by his predecessors, drawing strength from it to continue moving forward. In his view, this is not only a business, but also the continuation of a belief.

In the spacious and brightly lit conference room, a huge screen displayed a dazzling array of jewelry designs, some opulent and dazzling, others simple and stylish, and still others uniquely crafted, each exuding captivating charm. Those seated below watched the screen intently, whispering amongst themselves.

At this moment, a clear and loud voice rang out: "Hello everyone, I am Qi Chu, the person in charge of planning this event. First of all, please allow me to review the market size statistics and growth of China's jewelry industry from 2016 to 2019. For this purpose, I have specially prepared a detailed analysis report on consumer demand and market competition. Please look at the screen."

After speaking, Qi Chu gracefully extended her palm and gently waved it, and a vivid and intuitive chart appeared on the large screen—a chart of current jewelry trends. Standing at the front of the stage, with a smile on her face and a firm and confident look in her eyes, she began to eloquently expound on her profound insights and unique perspectives on the jewelry industry.

As she explained, the audience gradually became captivated, listening intently. With her professional expertise and rich experience, Qi Chu provided a clear and insightful analysis of key factors such as changing consumer preferences for jewelry products and the competitive landscape of the market, offering a series of innovative ideas and suggestions. Her words, full of passion and wisdom, ignited the atmosphere of the entire conference room.

Seated in the prominent position at the very front of the conference room, Polarizing Yang rested his chin on his left hand, a pen between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, rhythmically tapping it lightly on the conference table in front of him. The tapping wasn't loud, but it carried a peculiar rhythm, as if resonating with the questions he was pondering. At this moment, his eyes were slightly closed, seemingly completely immersed in his own thoughts, oblivious to everything around him.

After the meeting.

"Qi Chu, your plan is very well explained. I hope you will deliver your design work as you said and achieve this goal. Don't let me down," Fu Shiyue said, looking at her and encouraging her.

"Okay, thank you for your trust, Mr. Fu. I will devote myself to my work and live up to your expectations!" He looked firmly at the powerful man in front of him, secretly determined to make a name for himself and prove his worth.

Facing the trusting gaze from President Fu, he felt a great sense of responsibility, but at the same time, he was filled with fighting spirit and confidence. This trust was not only an affirmation of his personal abilities, but also an encouragement and motivation. He knew that only through unremitting efforts and outstanding performance could he repay President Fu's kindness and support.

In the days to come, no matter how great the difficulties and challenges, he will rise to the occasion without flinching. He will fulfill his promises with concrete actions and deliver a satisfactory result to General Manager Fu! Because he firmly believes that as long as you put in the effort, you will reap the rewards, and as long as you persevere, you will succeed!

Inside the president's office

"Mr. Fu, this is a tasting invitation from Ms. Wen of Shengqi," the assistant said, placing an invitation on the desk.

Xiao Yun is Liu Yang's assistant, and also his childhood best friend.

"You absolutely cannot miss this jewelry appreciation event! Saint-Germain has clearly expressed their desire for your attendance. This exchange and learning opportunity may become a key chance for our company to break through the current predicament. Moreover, in the meeting just now, I felt that what that female designer said was extremely insightful and reasonable. If we can follow her suggestions and make slight adjustments and improvements to the original design, we might really be able to turn the tide and completely change the current situation and pattern. This is undoubtedly a rare opportunity that we cannot miss!"

He didn't speak, lost in thought. He stood up, gazing at the towering buildings outside, hands in his pockets, exuding a regal air. "If we can successfully resolve the current predicament, then I might as well try her proposed solution. However, you should also understand that every choice carries a certain degree of risk. Therefore, before making a final decision, I must have a clear and comprehensive understanding and assessment of her true abilities and level, and then weigh the pros and cons carefully based on the actual situation, using this as an important basis for whether to adopt her suggestion. After all, better safe than sorry!"

"A-Yun will be out of school soon, send a driver to pick her up." He urged Xiao Yun to hurry.

"Fu Shiyue, I never realized you were such a romantic. Now that you have Xie Shiyun by your side, you don't need me anymore, right? You're such a fickle man, forgetting your friends for a pretty face, tsk tsk." He looked at Fu Shiyue and shook his head helplessly.

Fu Shiyue completely ignored what he said, because he knew very well that today was of great significance to his beloved—it was her eighteenth birthday celebration! Therefore, he was determined to give her a super gift today, leaving her with an unforgettable memory.

At that moment, he held the object tightly in his hand, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world. In fact, this item was a birthday gift he had carefully prepared, carrying his boundless love and blessings for her. He secretly resolved to make this gift an eternal memento in her life, so that she would forever remember this special day.

Crescent Bay Villa

After washing up, Xie Shiyun put on a loose-fitting nightgown and came to the living room. She idly scrolled through her phone. The nightgown was made of a soft, light fabric, like a sheer veil, gently brushing against her fair and delicate skin. The hem flowed like water, exuding elegance and grace. The neckline of the nightgown was slightly sexy, subtly revealing her slender neck and delicate collarbone, radiating a captivating charm.

"Why hasn't he come back yet?" She glanced at the alarm clock in the living room; it was already 9:30 p.m. "I wonder where he's off having fun?" she muttered under her breath.

After a while, the door finally opened, and Fu Shiyue returned.

She walked lightly, a gentle smile on her face, like a blooming flower, to greet him. Her eyes revealed endless care and expectation, like a wife anxiously awaiting her husband's return home.

She casually placed her hand on his broad, sturdy shoulder and said in a playful tone, "Fu Shiyue, why are you so late? You usually come home much earlier. Did you go on a secret rendezvous? There must be some unspeakable secret going on here!" After saying that, she winked at him mischievously, a sly smile on her lips.

She stared intently into his eyes, as if trying to glean some clue from his gaze. However, he merely smiled slightly, offering no further explanation. This stirred a ripple in her heart, prompting her to ponder the true reason for his late return.

He reached out and gently patted her cute little head, muttering, "What kind of nonsense are you thinking about all day? You're still slowly recovering your memories, don't think about such things too much..." However, this seemingly gentle gesture caused her a sharp pain, and she couldn't help but cry out. She frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes, but mostly confusion—she wasn't injured, so why did it hurt so much? Was it because he hit her too hard? Looking at his nonchalant expression, Xie Shiyun felt a pang of grievance and helplessness.

"A-Yun, today is your birthday, happy birthday!" he said softly and gently, his gaze fixed on the woman in front of him, his eyes full of affection and doting.

"I'm so sorry I came back so late. I really apologize. I'll definitely be more mindful of the time in the future and won't make you wait like this again..." He lowered his head in self-reproach, his voice tinged with guilt.

Then, he slowly extended his palm and carefully opened it. Before her lay an exquisitely crafted necklace, its chain shimmering with a faint yet captivating light, like the most brilliant star in the night sky.

Upon closer inspection, a small, sparkling diamond was set in the necklace. Even more surprising was the English word "Tloml" engraved on the pendant.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the gift in his hand, a soft gasp escaping her throat: "This..."

At that moment, time seemed to stand still. She was deeply moved by this unexpected surprise, a surge of indescribable emotion and joy welling up within her. This necklace was not only beautiful and captivating, but more importantly, it represented a profound meaning—"Tloml," an abbreviation of the English phrase "The LOVE of My life," signifying the love of my life, my one true love.

He gently picked up the necklace, walked behind her, and placed it around her elegant, slender neck. A slight coolness washed over him as the metal touched her skin, but it was quickly overwhelmed by a surge of warmth within him.

She turned around, her eyes moist, gazing at him tenderly, a thousand words unspoken in her smile. This simple yet sincere gesture brought them much closer, drawing their hearts closer together.

He gently picked up the delicate necklace, his eyes gleaming with tenderness. Then, he carefully unfastened the clasp, as if it were an incomparably precious treasure.

Fu Shiyue slowly walked behind her, approaching her and inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from her. He gently wrapped the necklace around her neck, letting it fall quietly onto her fair skin.

As the necklace clung perfectly to her neck, his gaze remained fixed on her, unwavering. His eyes were filled with deep affection and focus, as if he wanted to etch her beauty into his heart forever.

“This necklace really suits you; only you deserve it,” he said softly, his voice slightly hoarse. His fingers gently traced her neck, feeling the necklace against her skin.

She turned her head slightly, her gaze meeting his. In that instant, they seemed to see endless love and commitment in each other's eyes. A smile played on her lips, and she whispered, "Thank you, this is the most beautiful gift I've ever received."

He smiled, reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly. Their bodies were so close that they could feel each other's heartbeats. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world consisted of just the two of them.

Xie Shiyun had always been a shy and sensitive girl. As a child, he had showered her with meticulous care and attention, making her feel endless warmth. And now, he had given her such an expensive necklace! How could she possibly repay such profound affection?

Although she knew in her heart that someone like him would never lack money, it seemed that there was no better way to repay him.

Thinking of this, Xie Shiyun couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat, and her eyes gradually reddened. She murmured softly, "Why are you so good to me? I'm just an ordinary girl, I don't have anything particularly valuable. You've poured so much effort into me, don't you feel like you're losing out?"

These words should have been filled with sadness and lament, but for some reason, when Xie Jue spoke them, they carried an inexplicable sense of humor. It was as if he were discussing a losing business deal, making one want to smile wryly.

“Little thing, I never felt that having you was a loss; on the contrary, it was a gain. It’s like keeping the good stuff in the family.”

He always doted on her, as if he would never get angry. No matter what happened, no matter how great the difficulties and setbacks, he always chose to forgive and trust her. Because in his heart, she was a unique existence in this world.

Seeing her tear-filled eyes, he felt a pang of heartache. He gently reached out and wiped away her tears, softly comforting her, "Don't cry, baby. I'll take you to see something even more beautiful. Come with me." With that, he took her hand and led her to the left side of the second-floor room.

The room was in a secluded location, rarely visited by anyone. When they pushed open the door, she was completely stunned—the walls of the room were covered with her photos! From her innocent smile as a child, to her awkward and naive teenage years, and now to her youthful and beautiful appearance… every photo was a testament to her growth.

Her eyes widened as she stared at the photos in disbelief, a surge of indescribable emotion welling up inside her. It turned out that all these years, he had been silently watching over her, meticulously recording every single moment. And this secret room was like a cozy castle built just for her, filled with endless love and warmth.

"What's wrong with you today, Fu Shiyue? Did you arrange all of this?" Looking at the meticulously arranged scene before her, she was filled with doubt and surprise.

In fact, this wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision; it had been planned long in advance. He always kept her birthday in mind, and every detail and every decoration was crafted by his own hands. This was not just a simple celebration, but also an expression of his deep affection for her.

However, just as she was immersed in this surprise, Fu Shiyue suddenly took a step forward, closing the distance between them. Her body reacted instinctively, involuntarily taking a step back. At that moment, the atmosphere between the two became extremely tense, as if an invisible force was surging between them.
