The yandere CEO’s Black Moonlight is reborn again

Chapter 287 In the Rain
"He wasn't seen until morning. The master and his companions wanted to invite him in, but he refused, saying he would not come in until you, young lady, were willing to see him."

"They also asked him if he had a fight with you, but he wouldn't tell us." Mrs. Zhang continued, "You didn't tell us what happened when you came back. We don't know the details, and we don't dare to make any decisions for you. We can only let your son-in-law go."

Ye Xi: "Then why didn't anyone come to call me?"

Mrs. Zhang: "Originally, the master wanted to send someone to call you, but the young master said that you were in seclusion and couldn't be disturbed. Then the son-in-law also said not to disturb you, so that's why we gave up."

Ye Xi said, "Where is he now?"

Mrs. Zhang's face was filled with anxiety. "He's still waiting outside. It's raining so hard outside, and he just stood there waiting without even trying to avoid it. How can he bear it if he keeps doing this?"

She didn't know if there were other things that got in the way in City A, but Fu Linchuan came to Yuncheng later than she expected.

Ye Xi looked outside the eaves. The rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.

Seeing Ye Xi staring at the rain outside without saying anything, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to go see your uncle now?"

Ye Xi finished wiping her hair and threw the towel aside: "Don't worry about it, just let him be."

"Ah? This..." Mrs. Zhang was about to say something, but Ye Xi had already gone upstairs with a stack of papers in her arms. She was left stamping her feet anxiously: "What should I do now? Ah!"

Heavy raindrops hit the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows, making a disorderly sound. The dull thunder sounded like a giant's roar, and the air was oppressive and humid.

Ye Xi sat in the room, feeling a surge of irritation in her heart for no reason. She suppressed the irritation, put the manuscript on the desk, sorted it out, turned on the computer, and uploaded the detailed music scores one by one.

The rain after the beginning of autumn seems to want to absorb all the heat of late summer at once. The sky outside the window is dim and the air is stuffy, but the room is clean and bright, and the air conditioner is at a cool and suitable temperature.

Another thunder sounded, and Ye Xi quickened his movements.

The sound of keyboard clacking could be heard, and Ye Xi's movements became faster and faster, becoming more and more shaky and disorderly, until they came to an abrupt stop when the third thunder sounded.

Ye Xi stared at the computer screen in a daze, having entered several characters incorrectly. Her wrists rested on the keyboard, her fingertips slowly curling up.

"Huh" Ye Xi didn't know what she was struggling with, she just always felt stuffy in her chest, as if something was pressing on it, making her whole body uncomfortable.

Ye Xi looked at the glass window that was being knocked violently, slowly stood up and walked to the window.

Raindrops hit the glass and then gathered into streams that flowed down the glass, forming an irregular curtain of rain. Ye Xi stood in front of the window, looking out through the unclear glass. Her room was well-lit, with glass windows on three sides. The one on the west side just happened to reveal a part of the Ye family's main entrance.

There, a low-key Bentley was parked under the centuries-old tree outside the door, but the owner of the car did not go in to shelter from the rain, but stood outside the car, letting the wind and rain invade.

It was hot and humid when the autumn rain came and cold when it went away. Not long after, the temperature outside dropped, and the person at the door was only wearing a thin black shirt.

His short black hair was completely soaked, but the raindrops didn't make him look even more disheveled, instead adding a touch of messy beauty. His soaked clothes clung to his body, showcasing his smooth lines. However, under the relentless wind and rain, his figure slowly began to unsteady.

Was he trying to gain her forgiveness in this way?

Ye Xi stared at the figure in the distance without blinking. Needless to say, this fragile and humble gesture did please her. But——

With his understanding of her, it was impossible for him not to know what she really wanted, but he was unwilling to give it to her.

He would rather waste precious time and even hurt his body. No matter if it was a show or he was sincere, it was an extremely cost-effective and stupid thing. But he would rather do this than give her the truth she wanted to know!
If she can't get the best, she would rather not have it. She, Ye Xi, will never settle.

"Even this look can't move you?"

The system spoke with a tone full of curiosity, and a hint of barely perceptible schadenfreude, as if it had discovered something new and interesting. Ye Xi felt as if some of the pent-up frustration in her heart had finally been released.

The IQ of this system probably hasn't fully matured yet. Since Fu Linchuan is holding on tightly and won't give in, she can only find other ways to find out what she wants to know.

"Do you want me to be impressed by him?"

The system was silent for a while, as if it was looking at the rain outside the window and the people in the rain with her.

"If, that's it." The sighing tone abruptly stopped. The system's voice seemed to be suddenly pulled back on track by some force and spoke again: "Of course not. You and him were a mistake in the first place. Now that you've come to your senses, you should return to where you belong."

Ye Xi smiled, like a gentle sister who was amused by a child.

After laughing, she put her hands on the window and leaned close to it, as if she could see more clearly that way.

"Am I really awake now?"

The system made a beeping sound for a second, then asked in confusion, "Are you conscious now? Can't you feel it?"

“Does feeling necessarily mean it’s real?”

The system didn't quite understand this philosophical question. If it had hands, it would scratch its head and ask, "What exactly do you want to ask?"

Ye Xi straightened his body, stood back to where he was, and suddenly asked, "System, can you lie?"

"."

"It seems that it can be done." Ye Xi was not disappointed. "But, there should be conditions, right? For example, you can't lie to the male protagonist? For example, you can't lie when the host knows the truth, right?"

system:"!!"

How did she find out this time?
"Last time, when I was testing whether Fu Linchuan could block you, I told you my guess. If you could lie, you should have denied me or used other explanations to confuse me, but you didn't."

system:"."

System: "Should I praise you?"

"No need," Ye Xi seemed like a really polite lady from a noble family at this moment, with a calm expression and a gentle tone.

"You just need to answer my questions. Of course, you still can't lie this time."

For the first time, the system felt uneasy.

"First question, is Ye Xi my real name?"

The system breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she would ask it who it was right away. If she really asked that, how could it complete the task? It was absolutely impossible for it to fool around with her.

It wasn't lying, but it wasn't entirely honest either: "This name belongs to you."

In this case, perhaps the identity is real, just incomplete.

"Second question, are I related to Tang Zhiyi?"
