☆, Chapter 85: The Young Couple Quarrels
They were silent all the way back to the car. Bai Yifan didn't say a word, but started the car and drove down the mountain.
Gu Ran hesitated for a while, and waited until the car drove into the city. He knew he would miss the chance if he didn't say it, so he mustered up the courage to speak.
"Brother Bai, I'm sorry. You may have misunderstood some of my previous actions. You think I like you, right? That's why I always stick to you..."
"I'm really sorry. It's all my fault. I have no boundaries and always do things that people misunderstand, and I'm not even aware of it..."
“I’m really, really sorry…”
Gu Ran lowered her head, feeling ashamed. If it wasn't so strange to bow while sitting, she would definitely bow to Bai Yifan several times to express her apology.
Bai Yifan tightened his grip on the steering wheel slightly, and spoke in a cold voice, "You don't need to apologize, and you don't need to feel bad. Since it's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly, and don't mention it again in the future."
"But..." Gu Ran always felt that it was not that simple.
"Let's just put this matter behind us. I really don't want to discuss it anymore," Bai Yifan interrupted her.
Gu Ran pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Yes, since it was a misunderstanding, then it's been made clear, and she's apologized. Whether Bai Yifan can accept it or not, it's all Bai Yifan's right. Discussing it again and again here is undoubtedly exposing someone's scars. What's the point?
If it were her, she wouldn't want to repeat over and over again how stupid she was.
Gu Ran completely understood the logic.
I have said everything I should have said.
But looking at Bai Yifan's attitude changing drastically, she felt very depressed for some reason.
In addition to regret and apology, there were many other emotions, so messy that she was confused for a moment.
The car fell completely silent, and neither of them spoke again.
After the car drove back to Gu's house, Bai Yifan stopped the car in front of the villa gate.
"I won't take you in. It's getting late. Go to bed early."
"Yeah." Gu Ran pushed the door open and got out of the car. "Boss Bai, go back and drive slowly. Be careful."
"Yeah." Bai Yifan responded and waited for Gu Ran to close the car door and raise the window.
Gu Ran didn't even have the chance to say goodbye. He opened his mouth and closed it again.
I watched the car drive away, getting farther and farther away, and disappearing into the night.
"Oh, it's all your own fault!"
Gu Ran hit his head in frustration and walked into the door in a daze.
[It's all your fault for always thinking about eating melons and melons, clinging to others like a green tea flower. No wonder they misunderstood.]
[Is it okay now? I’m ignoring you.]
[Boss Bai seems really angry. This is the first time I've seen him so cold.]
[I feel a little sad.]
If I had behaved better just now, and realized it earlier, maybe it wouldn't be so embarrassing.
[But what good would it have done if I'd realized it earlier? The misunderstanding had already occurred. Even if I'd understood the whole thing before Mr. Bai confessed his feelings, would I have still agreed to it?]
[If I had agreed to his request, wouldn't things have gotten so awkward now?]
This thought popped up in his mind, and Gu Ran couldn't help but stop.
How could I have such an idea?
Just to avoid a falling out with Bai Yifan, do you have to go with the flow and go from friends to boyfriend and girlfriend?
[Gu Ran, so you are such a green tea?]
Gu Ran despised himself more and more and sighed repeatedly. Suddenly, when he looked up, he saw a dark shadow in front of him. He was startled and couldn't help but scream.
"ah!"
"Xiao Ran, it's me." Mother Gu hurriedly walked out from the shadow of the stairs and turned on the light above the stairs.
The dim light became bright, and Gu's mother's figure was exposed in the light.
Gu Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Mom, why are you there? Why aren't you asleep so late?"
"There are some urgent matters to deal with at the company. I just received a phone call and I can't sleep anymore."
Mother Gu explained, sighing in her heart.
She had actually fallen asleep and was sleeping soundly, but when Gu Ran came back from outside and her heart began to sound, she woke up.
It wasn't a big deal, after all, it was just an occasional morning routine, and the whole family was almost used to the lingering sound.
But this time, Gu Ran's thoughts were different from before. It was not some insignificant chatter, but about Bai Yifan, and she was very depressed.
You can hear Gu Ran’s sadness from his heart.
Mother Gu was a little worried, so she put on her nightgown and came out to take a look.
Unexpectedly, it scared Gu Ran.
But now that she met Gu Ran, Mother Gu felt that her trip was not in vain.
Gu Ran's expression now is really very depressed.
Gu Ran has always been very lively. For such a long time, her mother has never seen her worry about anything.
This was the first time that Gu's mother saw her so distraught and dazed.
Mother Gu didn't know what to say to comfort her. After all, her inner thoughts couldn't be revealed. She was also afraid that if she said something too much, Gu Ran would notice, so she went over and pulled Gu Ran upstairs.
"Why are you back so late today? You look dazed, you must be sleepy. Go back to your room and sleep early. A good sleep will give you plenty of energy."
"Yeah." Gu Ran responded in a low voice, also feeling very tired.
This kind of tiredness is not physical, but mental fatigue.
[Will I feel better if I get a good night's sleep?]
[Then go to sleep. I hope to forget all the unpleasantness when I wake up tomorrow.]
Just like Bai Yifan said, just pretend nothing happened.
…
"I'm back."
Gu's mother sent Gu Ran back to her room. When she returned to the bedroom, Gu's father came to greet her.
"How's it going? Xiaoran sounded quite down, and I heard she had a conflict with Bai Yifan?"
The few words he spoke made them unclear about the specific cause of the matter, but they could tell it was related to Bai Yifan.
Mother Gu sighed, "Who knows? I rarely see Xiaoran so upset. I guess there's a big conflict going on. Maybe they had a fight."
"That brat Bai Yifan actually dared to bully our daughter. Tomorrow I will rush to the Bai family and seek justice for Xiaoran!" Father Gu was filled with righteous indignation and was very angry.
His precious daughter, the darling of the Gu family, how could he allow others to bully her?
Even if it was Bai Yifan, he would still deal with him!
At worst, I will become enemies with the Bai family in the future.
"Don't do that." Mother Gu quickly stopped Father Gu from thinking this and glared at him dissatisfiedly.
"Why are you always so impatient? Didn't you listen to Xiaoran's feelings? It's all her fault. She has always regretted not apologizing properly."
"It's obvious that Xiaoran did something wrong. Isn't it normal for Bai Yifan to be angry? Aren't you just adding fuel to the fire by going to Bai Yifan like this?"
Although Gu's mother dotes on her daughter, she is also a reasonable person.
If the cause lies with her own daughter, she will not unreasonably shirk the responsibility.
"I didn't listen so carefully. I was just worried about Xiaoran..." Father Gu smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.
He was just busy being angry and really didn't listen carefully.
