“Are you satisfied?” Xu Anran leaned in again, her voice full of grievance. She tried hard to hold back her tears. However, tears were shining in her eyes.
Jiang Rongyan: “…”
“Tell me, what am I satisfied with? Tell me clearly!” He frowned and looked at Xu Anran with confusion. He had no idea what had happened.
Xu Anran looked up and stubbornly looked at Jiang Rongyan. Seeing that he did not know anything, she smiled sarcastically. A few nights ago, she carried the computer downstairs and specially introduced her proposal and work to him. It was late at night. She planned to rest directly, so she did not bring the computer into the room. She only took it away the next day when she was working. Jiang Rongyan must have copied the document in the middle of the night.
The more Xu Anran thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Especially when she thought about how she felt when a group of people took turns insulting her at the conference, her heart ached. No one was willing to believe her. In the heavy rain, everyone wanted to step on her, but who could empathize with her feelings? She thought that she and Jiang Rongyan were in the same boat and trusted him to the extreme. She did not expect that she was the one who was fooled in the end!

“You know what you’ve done!” She said coldly, “My worst decision was to choose to believe you and marry you! Now, I’m being played like a monkey by you guys!”
Jiang Rongyan was also angry when he heard that. He glared at her with a malicious look and his eyes were cold. “Fine, I’m the one who played you like a monkey!” When he thought about how Xu Anran did not believe him, he was inexplicably angry. Even his tone became especially extreme.
When Xu Anran heard Jiang Rongyan’s words, the grievance in her heart became more and more intense, mixed with anger. Her small hands clutched her pants tightly, and her face turned pale. She could not hold back her tears in an instant. She cried and retorted, “From now on, we will return to the bridge, and the road will return to the road. No one will care about each other anymore!”

Jiang Rongyan was so angry that he simply replied, “Okay, from now on, we will have no relationship at all! From now on, we will not have any interactions!”
“That’s what you said, Jiang Rongyan!” Xu Anran’s fingertips trembled as she lowered her head and spoke calmly. She felt so uncomfortable that it was as if she could not breathe.

After Jiang Rongyan finished speaking, he stood up and went upstairs. He did not look back as he took huge strides. Xu Anran casually wiped her tears and went upstairs to change into a black long dress. She used concealer to cover her red eyes and drove out of the door. Jiang Rongyan stood in front of the window. His face was so cold that it could freeze. He silently watched Xu Anran’s back as she left alone. Not long after, he went out as well.
In the bar.
Xu Anran sat in a booth in a corner. There were a few bottles of wine in front of her. She gulped them down one by one. Soon, her small face turned red. She hated herself for being so timid. She could only drown her sorrows in alcohol and escape from reality. However, she was extremely greedy and drunk at this moment. She could temporarily forget the worries of these two lives.
At this moment, a young man walked into the bar. He looked like a ruffian. He was wearing a black leather jacket and had a cigarette in his mouth. As soon as he entered the bar, his gaze fell on Xu Anran who was in the corner. His gaze was a little surprised. A moment later, he walked to the side. He turned on his phone and dialed a number. There was a conspiracy hidden in his smile.. “Brother Chen, guess who I saw at the bar? The one you chased before! Yes, yes, yes! It was Xu Anran! Didn’t you fail to catch her? I saw her drinking by herself. This is a good opportunity!”
