Ruan Tang was sitting in the dean's office of the First Research Institute drinking coffee.

The dean is an alpha who is over 200 years old. This is the first time such a thing has happened in the First Research Institute in all these years. He pushed his glasses and looked at Ruan Tang with eyes full of guilt.

Ruan Tang had changed a lot after getting married, and the dean couldn't tell what the change was.

But it gives people the feeling that the whole person's temperament is more distinct, and the extremely beautiful face is also vividly highlighted, making people unable to take their eyes off it at first sight.

"I'm sorry, Researcher Ruan. Such a thing has never happened in such a long time since the establishment of the First Research Institute... I sincerely apologize to you on behalf of everyone in the First Research Institute." The elderly dean solemnly apologized to Ruan Tang in front of all the senior executives of the First Research Institute.

All the senior executives of the First Research Institute had been paying close attention to what had happened over the past two days. After the dean's speech, they all looked at Ruan Tang apologetically and said, "We're sorry, Dr. Ruan, we misunderstood you. We apologize."

Although Ruan Tang was not expelled from the First Research Institute at that time, he chose to resign because he could not stand the gossips from his colleagues and the work environment where people talked about him after the incident with Ruan Xi.

After he submitted his resignation, the senior management of the First Research Institute did not follow the usual practice to retain Ruan Tang...

They need to apologize to Ruan Tang no matter what.

Ruan Tang looked calm and said to everyone gently, "It's okay. I took the initiative to resign. Ruan Xi did this. Without any evidence at the time, I couldn't make everyone believe me. I can't blame you."

But his heart was in turmoil. After he and Ruan Xi had caused a big fuss in the research institute, although no one said anything on the surface, in fact everyone believed Ruan Xi and pointed fingers at him in private. Many even stared at him with vigilance, fearing that he would "repeat to them what he had done to Ruan Xi."

Ruan Tang had no choice but to resign at the time, but he kept forcing himself to endure it and acted as if nothing had happened.

After a long time, he thought he no longer cared.

Until the truth came to light, the dean called him personally and hoped that he would come to accept the solemn apology from the First Research Institute.

Ruan Tang immediately agreed and said he would come over to accept the apology. It was not until this moment that he realized that he still felt aggrieved and still cared about this matter.

After hearing this apology, Ruan Tang felt that the grievances she had suffered in the past could finally be eliminated and faded away...

The whole office was silent. Seeing Ruan Tang being so reasonable, all the colleagues present lowered their heads in shame. This included Lu Yang, who had once asked Ruan Tang to elope but was rejected and never contacted Ruan Tang again, and who, like everyone else, had said bad things about Ruan Tang, and there were also many others who had followed the crowd and spread rumors about Ruan Tang, claiming that Ruan Tang was a black lotus.

Just because they have a good relationship with Ruan Xi, they spread rumors and speculated about others with the utmost malice without knowing anything about the relationship between Ruan Tang and Ruan Xi. This is really too much.

They simply pretend to be the most rigorous scientific researchers.

"Dr. Ruan, as long as you are willing, everyone in our First Institute welcomes you to come back to work at any time." The dean looked at Ruan Tang and extended a warm invitation to him.

Ruan Tang looked at the dean and shook her head gently: "Thank you, dean, but it's not necessary."

Everyone looked at Ruan Tang and almost thought he was stupid. The First Research Institute was a holy place in the hearts of all scientific researchers in the empire. Ruan Tang was forced to leave because of Ruan Xi's matter.

Now that the truth is out and the higher-ups have apologized to him, why doesn't he come back?

Even if she gets married and becomes a duchess, it would be a great honor to talk about her job at the First Research Institute.

When a leader from the institute who had a good relationship with him heard him say this, he immediately advised: "...Dr. Ruan, you have to think it over carefully. It's not easy to get into the First Research Institute. Don't let Ruan Xi's matter ruin your future."

The First Research Institute is the empire's top scientific research unit. As long as Ruan Tang is still working in this field and intends to do so, what better place to work than here?

"Yes, Ruan Tang." Wen Run also advised.

Ruan Tang took in everyone's gaze. He knew in his heart that the First Research Institute's apology and invitation for him to come back to work were probably related to Wen Run, but he did not look at Wen Run.

He looked at his former leader and said softly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't plan to come back."

He worked very hard to get a job at the First Research Institute. He had hoped to show his talents and realize his ambitions here, and his determination and perseverance to get in were very strong.

And when he chose to leave, his determination and perseverance were also very firm...

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back.

When he chose to leave, he never thought of coming back, even if time has passed and the truth has come out. He came here just to apologize.

"In that case, I won't persuade you any more, but you have to remember, Dr. Ruan... as long as you want to come back in the future, the door of the First Research Institute will always be open to you." Seeing that Ruan Tang had made up his mind, the old dean sighed and promised Ruan Tang that he could come back at any time in the future.

Ruan Tang smiled, and understood the Dean's kindness: "Thank you, Dean."

He left the First Research Institute contentedly, surrounded by the praise and guilt of his former colleagues and leaders, and felt deep peace and stability in his heart.

I feel that this time, I can really let go of all these and embark on a new journey in life.

…

Not long after Ruan Tang walked out of the First Research Institute, a man suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

It was Zhou Yao. Ruan Tang couldn't remember how long it had been since she had seen this annoying ex, and she didn't know why he suddenly appeared in front of her.

Zhou Yao may have drunk a lot of wine, and there was a faint smell of alcohol on his body.

"Ruan Tang, why can't you let Xiao Xi go?" Zhou Yao asked word for word as usual: "You have already forced her into the hospital, how much more aggressive do you have to be before you give up?"

After Ruan Tang got married, Zhou Yao had not been living a good life. He always couldn't help but think of Ruan Tang and their past.

Ruan Tang was such a vicious and hateful omega, but he just couldn't forget him.

As long as he wasn't paying attention, he would think of him, so in order to make himself forget him and not think about him, Zhou Yao had been drinking and dreaming recently...

He had no idea what had happened between Ruan Tang and Ruan Xi recently.

When he received a call from Ruan Xi, Ruan Xi cried to him aggrievedly about how Ruan Tang framed him, refused to let him go, and ruined his reputation.

Zhou Yao was almost ecstatic. He didn't even bother to comfort Ruan Xi. He rushed over to Ruan Tang to question him and stand up for Ruan Xi.

He was unwilling to admit it, but he had to admit that after finding out what happened to Ruan Xi again, his heart was filled with an excitement and happiness that was difficult to conceal and describe.

He hasn't seen Ruan Tang for a long time.

He wanted to see him, even if it was just to quarrel with him or say a few words to him.

But he had never taken the initiative to look for reasons and excuses from Ruan Tang, and now Ruan Xi had given him a ready-made reason.

Zhou Yao didn't even want to figure out the cause of the incident, he just rushed over.

"Zhou Yao, I'll tell you one last time, it was Ruan Xi who refused to let me go, not me who refused to let him go." Ruan Tang had been through so many scenes like this, and she was no longer upset: "Don't show up in front of me again, and don't say these inexplicable things to me again... I don't want to see you again."

When you get tired of hearing the same words, or getting tired of saying them, you will often start to hate that person as well.

After the words fell, Ruan Tang turned around and left without looking back...

Zhou Yao seemed to be really drunk. Seeing Ruan Tang was about to leave, he immediately stumbled forward and subconsciously grabbed Ruan Tang's wrist like a stray dog, refusing to let him go, sobbing, "Why? Why are you like this? Why won't you let Xiao Xi go?"

Ruan Tang didn't expect that he would actually grab her. She frowned and struggled for a long time without success. She immediately cursed at Zhou Yao, "Zhou Yao, you are fucking psychopath!"

He had no idea what Zhou Yao was crazy about.

The more he struggled, the more Zhou Yao pulled his hand tightly, refusing to let him move. Zhou Yao was very strong and was an alpha, so when the two confronted each other, Ruan Tang was no match for him.

Although he used to speak rudely, he was still somewhat gentlemanly and never made any move towards Ruan Tang.

But this time, he was drunk, his mind was not clear at all, and he was completely immersed in his own world. He completely ignored Ruan Tang's struggle and just restrained him...

"It's all your fault, it's all your fault! Why do you keep targeting Xiaoxi? If you hadn't targeted Xiaoxi again and again, we would have gotten married..." He choked up and immersed himself in his own world, crying out: "We would have gotten married, and we would have lived a good life."

Zhou Yao's eyes were red and he was in a trance: "How could it become like this? How could it become like this?"

Although he felt that he did not love Ruan Tang, he had always intended to marry Ruan Tang. He cancelled the engagement only because he wanted to teach Ruan Tang a lesson and told him not to target Xiao Xi anymore...

But how could this happen?

He was clearly just mad at Ruan Tang, but suddenly Ruan Tang married someone else, and suddenly they became two parallel lines, with no connection at all anymore.

Thinking back to the sweet past between them, Zhou Yao couldn't accept the present situation and didn't know how it turned out like this.

All the mistakes can only be attributed to Ruan Tang. If Ruan Tang had not targeted Ruan Xi, then nothing would have happened and they would not have separated...

It’s all Ruan Tang’s fault. It’s all Ruan Tang’s fault.

"Zhou Yao, you think too much." Ruan Tang listened to his amazing logic and sneered, "With you like this, I won't marry you, even if we do, I will divorce you... We can't live happily together."

There cannot be any room for Ruan Xi in his alpha's heart. This is his bottom line.

As Zhou Yao listened to his words, the light in his eyes dimmed and his mind became more confused.

"Let go, let go right now! I don't want to see you again!" Ruan Tang scolded him coldly.

Zhou Yao seemed to be completely immersed in his own world, unable to listen to what others said. He grabbed Ruan Tang and tried to pull her into his arms, muttering repeatedly: "Why? Why do you have to do this?"

But before he could pull Ruan Tang completely into his arms, someone pulled him away from behind and threw the drunken him to the ground.

"Zhou Yao, what are you doing? It is a disgusting behavior for an alpha to touch an omega! Why do you come to Ruan Tang instead of protecting your Ruan Xi?" Wen Run appeared at some point and shouted at Zhou Yao, who was like a dead dog.

When Ruan Tang saw Wen Run, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Wen Run."

Ruan Tang had mixed feelings towards this former friend of her nephew, whom she wasn't sure if he was her nephew's. However, she also knew that his fighting ability was much stronger than hers.

"Wen Run? Why are you here? Why are you meddling in other people's business?" Zhou Yao was furious when he saw Wen Run. "Aren't you standing on the same front with me and hating what Ruan Tang did? Why, now that you know you are Ruan Tang's nephew, you want to protect him and help him harm Xiao Xi?"

He loudly accused Wen Runlai: "Have you forgotten our past friendship and how good Xiao Xi was to you?"

He was very jealous of Wen Run. He had been jealous since he was with Ruan Tang. In Zhou Yao's eyes, the relationship between Ruan Tang and Wen Run, their good friend, was so good that it was a little abnormal.

He always felt that Wen Run had some feelings for Ruan Tang, but he never said it out loud... Later, Wen Run wisely helped Ruan Xi and stood against Ruan Tang, and he never mentioned this matter again.

Now, seeing Wen Run, who was clearly standing with them and was hated by Ruan Tang, just by being Ruan Tang's nephew, he stood back on Ruan Tang's side, and Ruan Tang was still so kind to him.

Zhou Yao became even more jealous.

He was so jealous that his whole body was about to twist.

"What I do and what I do has nothing to do with you! You touched an omega, and today I will let you know how powerful I am." Wen Run was also very angry when he heard this. Although he was usually not as strong as Zhou Yao, Zhou Yao was drunk today. He pulled Zhou Yao away and punched him directly.

The connection between him, Shen Mozhi and Zhou Yao was first because of Ruan Tang, and later because of Ruan Xi... In fact, they couldn't say that their friendship was very deep.

Now, he has been reborn and has seen Ruan Xi's true face...

Seeing that her ex-fiancé who had let Ruan Tang down in the previous life still dared to be so arrogant and harass Ruan Tang, Wen Run suddenly lost her mind.

Recalling Ruan Tang's experiences in his previous life, Wen Run hated himself deeply, but he also hated these two people who should have stood on the same front with Ruan Tang but let him down and stabbed him in the heart.

It was they who jointly caused the ending of Ruan Tang's previous life.

Neither they nor Wenrun himself intended to forgive any of them.

In this life, he came only to repay his debt, to return everything he owed to Ruan Tang...

Zhou Yao was knocked back several steps. When he came to his senses, he immediately threw a hook punch at Wen Run.

Ruan Tang looked at the two of them wrestling with each other, still entangled in the issues that made him irritated. He frowned, turned around and left without looking back.

He originally wanted to talk to Wen Run alone, but now was not a good time.

…

Zhou Yao was reborn when he woke up in the hospital with a bruised face. He was completely stunned when he saw that Di Xing might not have broken through the hospital ceiling before and his male servant who had long passed away.

"Master, Master..." The servant who had been dead for many years kept calling him in his ear.

Zhou Yao was in disbelief. He asked the servant, "What year is it in the interstellar calendar now?"

"It's now the 712th year of the Interstellar Calendar." Tim looked at his young master with a puzzled expression, as if he couldn't understand why he would ask such a strange question.

Zhou Yao muttered the year again, but he was lost in thought: "712 in the Interstellar Calendar."

He didn't expect that he would be reborn, and that he could come back...

Looking back on his life, the thing he regretted most was that he was deceived by Ruan Xi without knowing the truth, and misunderstood Ruan Tang, and had a quarrel with Ruan Tang to such an extent. It was not until he could no longer turn back that he saw Ruan Xi's true face and knew that the person he truly loved in his heart had always been Ruan Tang. It was ridiculous that he had never seen it clearly before, and had been helping the evil people to let down and hurt his most beloved omega...

He kept trying to make amends and regret what he did to Ruan Tang, but the damage had already been done. No matter how much he begged, Ruan Tang never looked back for the rest of her life.

Later, when the Emperor's Star was about to fall, he went to Ruan Tang to persuade him to go with him, but Ruan Tang refused him. When he went to find Ruan Tang again the next day, Ruan Tang had disappeared...

Zhou Yao never got married in his life. He searched for Ruan Tang all his life, but could not find her.

This was the biggest regret in his long life. On his deathbed, Zhou Yao was thinking about seeing Ruan Tang again. He swore in his heart that if there was an afterlife, he would cherish and make up for Ruan Tang and live a good life with him...

Don’t do stupid things that you will regret deeply in your previous life.

Zhou Yao originally thought that this could only be his extravagant hope, but he did not expect that God actually heard the call of his heart and really fulfilled his wish and let him come back.

In the year 712 of the Interstellar Calendar, he and Ruan Tang should have just broken off their engagement not long ago. The biggest damage and rift had not yet occurred. He should still have a chance to win back Ruan Tang, treat him well, and return everything he owed him...

"Where's Ruan Tang? Where's Ruan Tang? Where is Ruan Tang? I want to go find him!" Thinking of this, Zhou Yao was overjoyed. He didn't care about the pain in his body, nor did he have time to think about why he was injured this year. He couldn't wait to see Ruan Tang.

To see the person he has in his heart, he can only find him in his memory. In his dreams at midnight, he is always filled with heart-wrenching regret. He wants to see the person, but he never sees him again in his life.
