Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession

After the old man left, Li Mu quickly entered the study.

"Sir!"

Bai Chenyao did not look up, his cold gaze swept over the words on the document, and he spoke lightly, "What did grandfather say?"

"The old commander said that the military district is already starting to get chaotic. He advised you to pay attention and if you don’t want to go, just refuse directly!"

Bai Chenyao suddenly raised his gaze to look at Li Mu.

"Refuse?"

Li Mu paused slightly, a complex expression flashed in his eyes.

"Sir, you’ve retired, you are not—"

Bai Chenyao’s gaze suddenly became extraordinarily deep and unfathomable, staring at Li Mu, he spoke slowly and firmly, "As Old Song said, even if I’ve retired, when the country is in trouble, it is every man’s responsibility!"

Listening to sir’s words, Li Mu bowed his head in shame.

"Sir, the old man is worried about you... You’re his only relative now, you—"

"I need to go even more!"

Bai Chenyao’s gaze became extraordinarily cold, as if there was a mass of eternal ice in his eyes. His lips moved slightly, his voice icy, carrying an unprecedented weight.

"I don’t want the day he departs to come, and the world still believes that he has no one to see him off! It’s been hidden for so many years, enough!"

The usually expressionless Li Mu’s eyes suddenly flashed a trace of disbelief, even shock and fear.

"Sir?"

Bai Chenyao raised his hand, not giving Li Mu a chance to speak.

"Arrange the right people to monitor Shen Tiancheng’s every move!"

Li Mu: "..."

After a moment’s pause, Li Mu slowly spoke, "Sir, since you’re so concerned about madam, then why—"

"To make them believe!"

Bai Chenyao sneered coldly, his thin lips outlined an extremely slight arc, his gaze full of intense bloodthirsty light.

"Such a malignant tumor, if not removed for a day, there will be no peace!"

Li Mu agreed with sir’s words, but he did not approve of him putting madam in Shen Tiancheng’s hands.

"But sir, compared to Shen Tiancheng, isn’t Shu Kaiqi more reliable?"

Bai Chenyao’s eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, he gently shook his head.

"On the contrary, compared to Shu Kaiqi, Shen Tiancheng is more trustworthy!"

Li Mu: "..."

"Shen Tiancheng is a true villain, while Shu Kaiqi is a hypocrite. Sometimes, hypocrites are more frightening than true villains!"

"True villains focus on benefits, getting them by any means, while hypocrites... not only focus on benefits but also on false reputation. So compared to a true villain’s ruthless methods, a hypocrite’s tactics have even lower boundaries, because they want fame and benefits, making them even more vicious and insidious than true villains."

Li Mu: "..."

Sir’s words made a lot of sense, leaving him speechless.

But Shen Tiancheng’s intentions toward madam are clearly improper!

"Sir, but Shen Tiancheng on that side—"

Bai Chenyao’s gaze flashed with a sharp light, he pursed his lips, his voice indifferent and icy.

"If... Shen Tiancheng might be her best choice!"

Li Mu’s heart, at this moment, felt as if it was gripped tightly by an invisible hand, that suffocating and oppressive feeling made it difficult for him to breathe.

"Sir..."

"It’s getting late, go back and organize everything according to this!"

Li Mu took the document, seeing sir had already lowered his head to look at another, with no intention to speak further with him, he could only take the document and quickly leave the study.

"Wait!"

Li Mu paused, a bit of anticipation showing on his usually expressionless face.

"Don’t disclose any information about the Bai Family’s old house!"

Li Mu: "..."
