His self-blame towards her and Tony, his self-blame towards Duan Wenyu, were all as much pain as he felt, but what other reason could she have to blame him for?

Inside the brightly lit study room, although he was unhappy with Tang Hongbo turning on the computer and holding a meeting with him that night, he could still differentiate right from wrong.

Even if Duan Wenyu was at fault, if he had been resolute enough and cruel enough to not let Duan Wenyu appear in their lives, this tragedy wouldn't have happened. He wouldn't have lost her for three years and he wouldn't have missed the moment his own child was born.

"CEO, CEO?" When Secretary Wang saw the suddenly silent Tang Hongbo from the video, he thought that he had disconnected.

"What?" Tang Hongbo returned to his senses, but he did not hear what he had said.

"CEO, you asked me to investigate the Miss Duan just now, what happened?" Secretary Wang asked again.

"Don't ask so much first, go and check on the relationship between Duan Wenyu and the Madam who had disappeared three years ago, and send someone to follow her these few days." Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"Alright, I got it, that's right, I got it back from Assistant Li, I have a look, the gem is fake, but I have seen this style before, the former President of Rong family bought it at a sky-high price during the French auction to give to his wife, which is also Rong Xuan's mother. The size and weight of this gem, as well as its unique style and purity are all top-notch, just one piece at a time, although there are other opal gems in this world, most of them are not very pure, and there are a lot of impurities within, but the one Miss Duan gave to Madam is definitely the gem that Mr. Rong had in France back then. Secretary Wang asked.

When Tang Hongbo heard this, he couldn't help but recall that this was indeed the case.

"So you think that Rong Xuan gave this gem to her?"

"I think it's possible. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for Miss Duan to obtain this gem." Secretary Wang said.

"So that's how it is." Tang Hongbo sneered.

He had already felt that it would be impossible for Duan Wenyu to frame Chen Xi by herself.

Suddenly, a cold ray of light flashed across Tang Hongbo's eyes. If that was the case, then the things that happened three years ago would make sense.

For example, the consent slip for Chen Xi and her abortion surgery, the plane ticket to New Zealand, and the reason why Rong Xuan had disappeared for a period of time after Chen Xi had disappeared, and then when he appeared again, he had never mentioned anything about Chen Xi …

So it turned out that everything that had happened had been planned long ago, and the one who had planned all this, was actually the Duan Wenyu that he had trusted for so many years.

Shocked, he couldn't help but feel sad and foolish. He had actually let the person who had hurt his beloved wife and child stay by his side for three years without even knowing it.

Was there anyone more stupid than him in this world? Tang Hongbo was furious as he slammed his fist on the table.

His hand, which was already injured, started to bleed again after the movement just now.

Secretary Wang was startled, he did not know what Tang Hongbo was thinking that made him so angry, but he saw his hand that was bleeding.

"CEO, your hand …"

"It's fine, go find Old Man Rong tomorrow using the jewelry, you don't need to say anything, right?" Tang Hongbo did not mind his bleeding hand at all as he said this with a solemn face.

"Alright."

After turning off the computer, Tang Hongbo finally felt how angry he was, but he knew that he couldn't bring her such an emotion.

Therefore, he tried his best to adjust his mood in the study room before deciding to look for Chen Xi.

Pushing the door open, he couldn't help but shake his head. His slightly curled long hair fell down from her forehead, covering her exquisite facial features and peerlessly beautiful face. Her slightly drowsy eyes made him think of the sleeping beauty in fairy tales.

He walked over to the sofa with light steps.

He used his hand to gently brush away the hair on her forehead, as if he was worried even in his sleep.

In this lifetime, the only person he owed was the girl in front of him.

The love and guilt in his eyes never faded.

He had caused her to endure too much. Originally, she should not have endured too many things. Originally, this could have been avoided, but because of his bit of benevolence and righteousness, it caused her to enter such a situation.

If time can be repeated, he must love her twice as much, and give her the best in the world.

He bent down and picked her up, as if she had always been so light.

The instant Chen Xi lost gravity, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Are you done?" Chen Xi's voice carried a soft allure.

"Hmm, why don't you go sleep on the bed?" Tang Hongbo carried her and walked toward the bedside.

"I forgot." Chen Xi shook her head with great effort, trying to make herself more clear-headed.

Tang Hongbo placed her on the bed and also sat down. Chen Xi felt a little awkward.

"Xi Xi, is there anything you want to tell me?" Chen Xi asked.

Chen Xi was startled, could it be that he had finally asked?

She knew that this day would come sooner or later, so she was only a little stunned. There wasn't much of a shock, and there was no need for her to hide it anymore.

"Actually, you already knew about it, didn't you? "Why didn't you ask me?" Chen Xi leaned on the bed and asked softly.

"Didn't you know? I've been waiting for you to tell me. " Tang Hongbo looked at him gently.

Chen Xi looked at his gentle face, then felt a warm feeling in her heart. She also didn't want to continue lying to him.

"As you can see, my identity and my memories are correct. If I lied to you, would you blame me?" Chen Xi finally said it out slowly.

It was a good feeling to be honest like this. She was finally relieved, as if a stone in her heart had finally been put down.

Tang Hongbo looked at her. Other than feeling heartache and guilt, he didn't have the slightest hint of blame.

He reached out to touch his head and said gently.

"I won't blame you. If I had known earlier, I definitely wouldn't have caused you to suffer so much. I'm sorry." Tang Hongbo knew how pale and powerless his apologies were to her right now. However, other than apologizing, he really could not find any suitable words to say.

"You know, I'm not asking for a word of apology, I'm asking for the truth." Chen Xi suddenly said with a serious expression.

"Truth? What truth? " Tang Hongbo was a little puzzled. He felt that he should have known the truth three years ago.

"Regarding the truth from three years ago, both you and Duan Wenyu have been concealing it from me." Chen Xi asked in an undisguised manner.

Tang Hongbo was obviously baffled as he looked at her.

"What are you talking about?"

Chen Xi was not angry, she just felt that there was nothing else he could say.

"The truth behind Duan Wenyu's disappearance all those years ago. "Also, you didn't want to tell me that I almost miscarried a few times?" A look of disappointment flashed past Chen Xi's eyes.

Tang Hongbo looked at her and instantly understood. The reason she pretended to lose her memories and didn't recognize him was because she misunderstood that he and Duan Wenyu had deceived her.

Tang Hongbo felt that this misunderstanding would be difficult to resolve in a short while.

"Xi Xi, do you think that I have deceived you together with her?" Tang Hongbo's eyes were filled with sorrow.

"Isn't it?" Chen Xi said indifferently.

"Am I such a person in your eyes? "Xi Xi, I thought you would understand me, I admit that I lied to you back then because I wanted to protect you. At that time, I unintentionally heard Wenyu say that she had disappeared, and I wanted to tell you the truth, but I saw that you treated her as your most important person and trusted her, so I hesitated, knowing that even if I did, you wouldn't believe me, because at that time you trusted her more than I did, and you treated her as the closest person in the world. If you knew that she lied to you and used you, I wouldn't have dared to think that you would collapse after knowing the truth. So, in the end, it's all my fault. If I explained it clearly to her from the beginning, and said it clearly, maybe she won't stay as she is now, and she won't be able to hurt you. " Tang Hongbo explained, but his tone sounded like he wanted to repent.

After Chen Xi heard this, she could not help but feel sad in her heart. Yes, it was all because she was too stupid, too stupid, and too easily believing in her words.

However, no matter how much she tried, she could not understand. The person who had once given her warmth had now become this terrifying.

Was love really that good?

What's the point of loving someone who doesn't love you, even if you get them by means?

Isn't love a mutual love? Is it what you and I wish for?

However, Chen Xi thought that Duan Wenyu would never understand this principle in her life.

Chen Xi looked up and saw Tang Hongbo with his head lowered.

Being as proud as he was, she had never seen him apologize and speak to anyone in such a low voice.

That was why she said she didn't want his apology, because she didn't want to see him so humble. It didn't suit him.

"Hongbo..." Chen Xi suddenly called out to him in a serious tone.

He saw Tang Hongbo raise his head and look at her.
