Ali abandoned Li Anran halfway and drove off.
The boss had given her the warning she was supposed to give Li Anran, and what Li Anran would encounter in the middle of the night was no longer her concern.
She wished Li Anran would just die in an accident.
"Ali, how is she still alive?"
Didn't she hand Ali over to the boss and ask him to help her deal with her?
Did the boss deliberately keep her around?
Thinking of this, Li Anran felt a chill run down her spine. She realized that this so-called "boss" was even more unfathomable than she had imagined.
She was so naive to think she could use him to deal with Ali, but in the end, she gave him leverage over her own actions.
"Should we do something about her? After all, she's the young master's fiancée in name only. Letting her sleep on the streets like this isn't good for his reputation, is it?"
The two bodyguards who had been following Li Anran were whispering to each other in the shadows.
"Alright then, it's for the young master anyway."
Did you see the person in the taxi clearly just now?
They look like they've come seeking revenge.
The young master had previously instructed them not to show up as long as Li Anran was not in mortal danger.
"No, it's very well disguised. You can't even tell if it's a man or a woman. Remember to report this to the young master when you get back."
"I've already told you that someone has started contacting Li Anran."
When Jian Ruoxi returned home, Ali had already changed into her usual clothes.
"Miss Jian, where have you been?"
Strange, weren't things all resolved satisfactorily?
The scandal disappeared completely, without a trace, and Ran Jie also promised to teach Han Mingyi a lesson.
Why is she sad?
“Ali, you’ve been in the Lu family for quite a while. After I leave, Li Anran will move in, right?”
"Is Lu Shen really that good to her?"
As soon as she asked the question, Jian Ruoxi regretted it.
Didn't I see it with my own eyes today?
Lu Shen gave her an engagement ceremony, agreed to let her move into the Lu family home, and promised her a job at the Lu Group.
Isn't this proof enough?
"Ms. Jane, to be honest, I didn't know."
"Although I was serving Li Anran personally at the time, I hadn't even seen the young master's face a few times."
"Young Master rarely comes to see her either."
Jian Ruoxi found it hard to believe. Li Anran had only recently returned to China, and given Lu Shen's high-profile displays of affection for her, how could she have allowed her beloved to stay at home without visiting him?
"Ali, you're not just trying to make me happy, are you?"
"Don't worry about hurting my feelings. Anyway, Lu Shen and I are already divorced. What other outcome could I not bear?"
Ali solemnly emphasized to Jian Ruoxi, "It's true."
“Miss Jian, if we’re talking about how much he cares for you, I think the young master treats you even better than he treats Li Anran.”
She saw this very clearly back when she was still with the Lu family.
However, most of the people involved are so engrossed in their own guesses and imaginations that they often overlook the most authentic details.
Tonight, Jian Ruoxi is having extreme difficulty falling asleep.
Ali's words undoubtedly planted a seed in her heart, which gradually took root and sprouted.
She felt she must be crazy. How could she think that Lu Shen really liked her?
"Impossible, he's such a strong person."
"If you truly love someone, how could you bear to let her stay outside all the time?"
After all, he was willing to wait three years for Li Anran.
She had witnessed firsthand how Lu Shen liked other people, and when it happened to her, she always felt it was a fantasy.
With memories of the past lingering in her heart, Jian Ruoxi drifted off to sleep, her pillow damp with tears.
When she saw him again, she still couldn't let go of the past.
At this moment, Li Anran was still shivering on her way back to the Lu family. Because it was too late, she couldn't even hail a taxi on the road, so she had to walk back.
She kept cursing at Ali the whole way.
"Damn Ali, don't think you can boss me around just because you've hooked up with a big boss."
"Who do you think you are? Once the boss gets tired of you, I'll find a chance to kill you."
When Li Anran arrived at the Lu family's door, she was already exhausted.
The maid who opened the door was startled by her.
"Miss Li, why are you only just getting back? The old lady was very worried about you."
Seeing that she was shivering, the maid, at the old lady's suggestion, quickly put a coat on her.
"If you ask me, if you're not comfortable with working for this company, you shouldn't go. It's a Lu family company anyway, so why work so hard?"
"If you have something to do, just delegate it to your subordinates."
The old lady had originally intended to pull Li Anran's hand over to warm it, but she immediately pulled away as soon as she touched her icy fingers.
"Get Anran a hand warmer."
Seeing that the old lady treated her the same as always, Li Anran felt that she might be able to help with Ali's matter.
"Grandma, you don't know, I saw it today..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Shen ruthlessly interrupted her.
"Grandma is right. I will tell my staff to give her less work in the future."
"Or, if she doesn't want to work at Lu's anymore, she can just tell me."
He knew very well that Li Anran would not let this opportunity slip by easily.
The people behind her would naturally not allow her to do that.
"No, I'd be happy to work at Lu's again."
"Really!" Li Anran emphasized again, afraid they wouldn't believe her.
If she messes up her job at the Lu Group again, the next person to come back will probably be the boss himself.
"Okay, since there's nothing else, I'll go upstairs to rest."
"Grandma has just recovered recently, so she shouldn't stay up late anymore."
The old lady was overjoyed to receive the care from her eldest grandson and immediately nodded in agreement, just like a child receiving candy.
"I knew Ah Shen cared about Grandma. Grandma will go and rest now."
The old lady let the maid help her upstairs, and before leaving, she did not forget to give Li Anran some instructions.
"Anran, you must be tired after a long day at work. Go to sleep."
Li Anran's words were all stuck in her throat, and she didn't have a chance to utter a single word.
"Never mind, let's talk about Ali with the old lady another time."
With Ah Shen around today, she couldn't find a suitable opportunity.
After going upstairs, Lu Shen did not rest immediately, but instead called over the two bodyguards who had been responsible for following Li Anran.
Where did Li Anran go today?
The two bodyguards knew their young master would ask, so they had been waiting there.
“Li Anran was driven away by a stranger, and we have not yet found out his identity.”
I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I keep getting frustrated when I try to find out about things.
These elite bodyguards were starting to doubt their own abilities.
"Keep following up. It seems that the people who appeared today must have given Li Anran some warning, otherwise she wouldn't have been so desperate."
