"You're just trying to satisfy yourself! Every time you exhaust me to death. I'd rather you spend more time with me so I won't be starving during the times when I'm hungry."

...

Yi Anguo felt helpless too. It was impossible for Zhou Mengdie's parents to let their daughter live with him out of wedlock with no title.

Yet he had no way to give Zhou Mengdie any title.

There were too many women around him. Marrying any one of them would be incredibly unfair to the others, so he could only maintain the current status quo, marrying no one and just cohabiting. Although this was somewhat unfair to everyone, it was the fairest way possible.

"Do you regret it now?" Yi Anguo hesitated and asked.

"This is my own choice. I will never regret it. As long as you treat me well and remember to visit me often, I'll be very satisfied." Zhou Mengdie said with unwavering resolve.

"Aren't you afraid you'll always be stuffed if I visit you often?" Yi Anguo teased with a mischievous smile.

"I'd rather be stuffed all the time than starve." Zhou Mengdie said, turning over and resting on Yi Anguo, starting to stir again.

Before long, the luxurious bed started rocking slightly once more, and another intense encounter began.

Chairman Guo Aihua of Fuhua Group and his son Guo Sian flew directly from Singapore to China, finally landing safely at Shenzhen International Airport. They then took a luxury business car from the Fuhua Hotel and checked into the presidential suite there.

Meanwhile, Yi Anguo received the documents Zhou Mengdie had compiled for him about the Singapore-based Fuhua Group and its chairman.

When he saw the information on Fuhua Group's Chairman Guo Aihua, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

"The chairman of Fuhua Group is actually named Guo Aihua."

"The person in the photograph seems vaguely familiar."

"Guo Aihua, is it really you?"

"You gave yourself to me back then, but why did you leave without a word?"

Yi Anguo's heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't help but recall many past events.

At that time, he was only eighteen years old and had just come to Dongguan in Guangdong Province as an apprentice at a mahogany furniture factory near a three-star hotel in town.

Near the town center was a plaza where free outdoor movies were shown every night, so Yi Anguo would often go there to catch the free films.

By coincidence, he helped a beautiful girl in distress, which led to their acquaintance.

Gradually, they developed feelings for each other and started a romance.

Even though the girl seemed to come from a distinguished family with wealth and status, Yi Anguo didn't back down or feel inferior. At that age, he was full of ambition and believed that he too would eventually succeed.

After they crossed the line from friends and tasted forbidden fruit, Yi Anguo was even more confident about their future.

However, when he went to find the girl again, she had left without a word.

This was Yi Anguo's first love—it came quickly and ended even quicker, too quickly for him to prepare.

At the time, Yi Anguo became somewhat degenerate, smoking and drinking, only overcoming the shadow of that relationship after a long while.

Until his father's 70th birthday, he quickly married Yi Xinyi's mother at a wedding banquet held on his father's special day.

It was 1992 then, and eighteen years have flown by since.

Yi Anguo never expected to hear news about Guo Aihua at this time.

Nor did he expect that the once delicate girl was now a chairman of a multinational conglomerate, with a net worth of over 20 billion US dollars.

Even though her net worth wasn't as high as his, he had taken advantage of being a rebirth survivor. Were it not for that, he would still be an ordinary man at this point.

Seeing Guo Aihua had a seventeen-year-old son made Yi Anguo even more unsettled.

"So, you got married just after leaving me?"

"How old were you then? So eager to get married?"

Yi Anguo felt a bit bitter. Although he knew that many years had passed, and Guo Aihua was now thirty-five or thirty-six, married with a child, isn't that normal?

Looking at himself, he not only had several children but also multiple women. What right did he have to blame her?

Despite trying to console himself, he couldn't help but feel heavy at heart.

Everyone finds it hard to forget their first love, their first woman.

Though Guo Aihua inherited her father's business, she was only a woman in her early twenties when she took over, and to bring Fuhua Group to its current stature is a significant achievement.

Meanwhile, Guo Aihua, who was now in the presidential suite of the Fuhua Hotel in Shenzhen, also received detailed information on Yi Anguo, Chairman of Anguo Group.

After seeing Yi Anguo's detailed information, Guo Aihua was already sure that this man was the one she had been unable to forget and searching for over the past eighteen years.

The impoverished boy from back then, she never thought he would have advanced to this level today. The scale of Anguo Group amazed even Guo Aihua.

Just with its publicly listed Anguo Bank, its market value was nearly 30 billion US dollars.

Anguo Group's other subsidiaries, although not listed, had impressive valuations. For example, the valuation of its e-commerce platform, Anjing Supermarket, was over 20 billion US dollars.

Anguo Group also had numerous other subsidiaries, like Hua Xing Technology and Hua Xin International, any of which could independently be considered significant companies.

Upon seeing Yi Anguo's marital status marked as unmarried, Guo Aihua inexplicably felt better.

It turned out he hadn't forgotten his promise.

Guo Aihua couldn't help but reminisce about the extraordinary and unforgettable times she often recalled from back then.

"I, Yi Anguo, swear to the heavens that in this life I will love only Guo Aihua, be good to only Guo Aihua, marry only Guo Aihua, and have only Guo Aihua as my wife in my lifetime. If I break this vow, heaven..."

"Fool! As long as you keep me in your heart, there's no need for such a heavy oath." Guo Aihua quickly covered Yi Anguo's mouth with her hand.

"I'm serious! I will take responsibility for you in the future. I will work hard, earn money. Even if you don't depend on your family, I can ensure a good life for you," Yi Anguo said earnestly.

"Hmm! I believe in you. You'll certainly achieve it; you are the best." Guo Aihua looked at Yi Anguo warmly and affectionately.

The next day was when they agreed to meet, but that night, both Guo Aihua and Yi Anguo lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
