The CEO's wife is reborn and vows to pay for her crimes in blood.

Chapter 216 Shirley is still alive

Gu Ye's eyes narrowed, and his expression turned dangerous.

Everyone present could clearly feel the change in Gu Ye; the previously peaceful and friendly Gu Ye had suddenly become chilling.

"What's wrong?" Chu Xinglan patted Gu Ye's hand.

"It's nothing." Gu Ye concealed his cold demeanor and looked at everyone. "I'm sorry, I was just thinking about a tricky problem at work. I apologize for scaring you."

After hearing what Gu Ye said, no one said anything more. Regardless of whether it was true or not, they had already witnessed another side of the cold and aloof CEO who was not as rumored as they had seen. Still feeling lingering fear, they dared not be casual and unrestrained in front of him anymore.

"Eat and drink well, everyone," Xiao Ze broke the silence, livening up the atmosphere.

"Yes, yes, everyone eat and drink well," Teacher Guo added hurriedly.

Jasmine and Paul exchanged glances but said nothing. Instead, they picked up their glasses and clinked them with everyone else.

The originally cheerful atmosphere suddenly seemed to freeze, and everyone quickly finished their meal and went their separate ways.

"Gu Ye, what's wrong with you today?" Chu Xinglan asked, puzzled.

Although both she and Xiao Ze tried to liven things up, they failed. After breaking up with Xiao Ze, Chu Xinglan sat in the car and asked in confusion.

"Stay away from that woman named Jasmine from now on," Gu Ye said in a deep voice.

"Why?" Chu Xinglan asked, puzzled.

It was his first time meeting Jasmine, so why was he hostile towards her? And the cooling of the atmosphere also happened after Gu Ye saw Jasmine.

“She is Shirley,” Gu Ye said coldly.

Chu Xinglan was startled.

"That can't be, isn't Sherry already dead?"

“Even if she changed her appearance, her eyes won’t change. She is still Sherry,” Gu Ye said with certainty.

Chu Xinglan looked at Gu Ye for a while before saying, "If she really is Sherry, then doesn't she hate me to the core? Why would she go through all this trouble to gain my trust?"

“You don’t understand that woman, but none of her tricks can escape my notice.” Gu Ye said, looking at Chu Xinglan. “Lanlan, from today onwards, I will have people protect your safety.”

“No need.” Chu Xinglan wasn’t afraid at all that Sherry wanted to take revenge on her. “If she really is Sherry, I’d like to see what tricks she’s up to.”

Gu Ye gazed at Chu Xinglan for a long time before touching her forehead and saying, "Okay, I'll cooperate with you."

Although he said that, he had already planned in his heart how to ensure Chu Xinglan's safety.

After Gu Ye drove Chu Xinglan away, Jasmine and Paul finally arrived.

"Gu Ye recognized you?" Paul asked.

"Impossible, I've changed my appearance, there's no way he could recognize me."

Jasmine didn't believe that Gu Ye recognized her true identity on his own.

It turns out that Jasmine was actually Sherry. She fell into the sea that day, miraculously survived, and later climbed ashore with great difficulty, where she found Paul, who had always secretly loved her.

In fact, if it weren't for her desire to return for revenge, she wouldn't have wanted any contact with Paul at all.

Paul noticed that Shirley was staring at Gu Ye's departing car, and suddenly felt a surge of possessiveness. He pulled Shirley into his arms.

"You saw your first love and couldn't take your eyes off him. Don't forget who led you to this point. And... he already has a child with that woman. Are you still delusional?"

As Paul spoke, he gripped Shirley's neck tightly with his hand.

Shirley frowned in pain.

“No, ever since I died once, all I have left is revenge. Gu Ye and Chu Xinglan will pay the price for this.”

"That's good!"

Paul gave a cold laugh and forcibly dragged Shirley toward the car.

"Paul, calm down."

He forcefully threw Shirley into the car. Shirley was somewhat afraid of this crazy and somewhat perverted Paul.

Paul removed his tie, tied Shirley's hands together, and then assaulted her in the car.

After all that commotion, Shirley was covered in bruises.

She struggled to sit up, trying to free her hands from the tie binding them, but she couldn't. She glared resentfully at Paul driving in front of her.

She had to endure it a little longer, until he helped her get revenge, and then she would get rid of this perverted man.

Shirley looked at her once snow-white skin, now covered with inch-by-inch scars.

They're the ones who caused all of this, Gu Ye and Chu Xinglan, I will never let you get away with this.

Chu Xinglan believed Gu Ye's words, so she believed that Jasmine was Sherry, but she still needed to confirm this.

Sulli has taken a few days off these past few days.

Chu Xinglan couldn't understand what Shirley was trying to do. If it was really for revenge, why would she wait so long?

She didn't know much about Shirley before, only that she was the culprit who caused her tragic fate in her previous life. She knew nothing else about her. But after all, she had been with Gu Ye for more than ten years. Gu Ye knew all about this woman's methods. He knew that she was very patient, even more patient than Chu Xinglan. And often, such opponents are the most terrifying because you have no idea how big a net she is going to lay.

If Chu Xinglan were alone, she probably wouldn't be a match for Shirley at all. However, she's not alone; she has Gu Ye as her trump card, so Shirley has no chance against her.

Now that she knew Jasmine was Sherry, she saw no need to feign politeness with Sherry.

A week later, after Shirley returned to the film set, Chu Xinglan met with her alone and got straight to the point: "You are Shirley."

"Xinglan, what are you talking about? What Shirley? I don't understand."

Shirley pretended to be stupid.

"Stop pretending." Chu Xinglan wasn't buying it at all. "In the beginning, you used the same methods as me. From that time on, I began to suspect you. But slowly, I was really deceived by your appearance, and for a time I even considered you a good friend. Until that day at the crew dinner, Gu Ye recognized you at a glance."

Shirley paused for a moment.

Paul was right, Gu Ye really did recognize her!

Seeing that Chu Xinglan had exposed her, Shirley no longer concealed her identity.

"Now that you've recognized me, there's no point in hiding anymore. Yes, I am Sherry."

"Since you're not dead, you should hide in a corner and never come out," Chu Xinglan said fiercely.

"You talk to me like this because Gu Ye is your source of confidence, right? Without Gu Ye, you are nothing at all."

Sherry approached Chu Xinglan, adopting an aggressive stance.

"You're right, Gu Ye is my source of confidence, but you'll never have someone so outstanding who loves you so much."

Chu Xinglan readily admitted it.

Sherry's expression turned ferocious with anger because of her words.
