"Um, Aunt Li, I have something to do, so I'll be going now!" Seeing that her son's expression was off, Shangguan Rong quickly followed him.
Shangguan Rong followed Li Churan into the car.
Li Churan started the car key, but stared blankly ahead without driving away.
Shangguan Rong looked at him somewhat nervously, "Um, Chu Ran, actually I don't know much about her situation. It wasn't Aunt Li who told me. I didn't know that she had a chaotic private life before and that she can't have children anymore!"
"It's all that Aunt Li's fault, she deliberately hid it..." Shangguan Rong kept complaining.
"Mom! Okay, that's enough! Let's just let this matter rest! Don't interfere in my affairs anymore!" Li Churan lit a cigarette.
"Chu Ran, smoking is bad for your health!"
Shangguan Rong quickly replied that she knew Chu Ran was definitely unhappy about this, but she was only considering Chu Ran's future. However, she hadn't expected Wang Siyuan to be able to have a child.
Li Churan stubbed out the cigarette and threw it into the ashtray.
He only smokes when he is extremely depressed.
He drove the car to the apartment building. "Mom, you go back first. I have something to do, so I won't see you upstairs!"
"Chu Ran, are you coming back for dinner tonight?" Shangguan Rong asked expectantly.
"Take a look!" Li Churan started the engine, and the car sped away. He took out a metal chain resembling a pocket watch from a small drawer in front of the car.
He opened the watch case, and inside was a photo of Ye Ning.
Ye Ning, I won't let anyone easily take your place. Wait for me, I will definitely come back!
Li Churan pressed Ye Ning's photo to her forehead, as if she could feel Ye Ning's heartbeat that way.
Ever since her last meeting with Li Churan at the coffee shop, Wang Siyuan has been obsessed with him, waiting for his call every day.
In order to maintain her feminine composure, she suppressed the urge to contact him.
For several days in a row, she still hadn't received any messages from Li Churan.
In the past, all those men would flock to her, so why is Li Churan not reacting to her at all? This shouldn't be!
Wang Siyuan never imagined that the reason some men fawned over her had nothing to do with her personally, but was entirely due to her father's status.
Finally, on the afternoon of the fourth day, Wang Siyuan couldn't hold back any longer and sent Li Churan a message.
"Chu Ran, are you busy?"
Half an hour later, Li Churan replied with a message: "Mhm!"
"Chu Ran, a pretty good restaurant recently opened nearby. Are you free these next couple of days?"
Another half hour later, "I've been quite busy lately, I probably won't have any free time!"
Although this time the answer was longer, it was still a refusal.
"Chu Ran, they're being so sincere, can't you spare some time to spend with them?"
The coquettish voice, coupled with the content below, made Li Churan resist the urge to delete her. She politely replied, "I'm really sorry, Miss Wang, I've been quite busy lately. I'll definitely make an appointment with you after I'm done with this."
Hopefully, after some time, this playful young lady will find another target and forget about him!
Hearing Li Churan's cold and distant voice only fueled Wang Siyuan's fighting spirit. No man had ever dared to treat her like this before, and she was determined to win him over.
Li Churan thought Wang Siyuan would come to bother him again in a few days, but who knew that an hour later, as soon as he stepped out of the office area, he saw a figure that made his scalp tingle.
"Chu Ran, I'm here!" Wang Siyuan, driving a silver-white Maserati, waved to Li Chu Ran as soon as she saw her from afar.
Damn it, how did she get here!
But now that she's discovered it, it's too late to hide.
"Miss Wang, what brings you here?" Li Churan asked politely.
"I came to see you! Didn't you say you were busy? So I took the initiative to come find you! Come on, get in the car, let's go eat!"
Wang Siyuan's attire today was quite ladylike. She had thought about it carefully and felt that her outfit on the day of the blind date might have been too frivolous. Li Churan might prefer something more ladylike, so she specially chose this outfit.
"Um, no need, I've been too busy with work lately. I'm nearby, I'll just grab something to eat!" By this time, quite a few people were already glancing at him, and he had to get away quickly.
"Chu Ran, this girl has taken the initiative to contact you, can't you be a little more proactive and have a meal with me?" Wang Siyuan pouted and said coquettishly.
"Miss Wang, why don't you go eat first? I only have ten minutes right now, I'm afraid I can't accompany you to the restaurant!" Li Churan continued to refuse.
Wang Siyuan lost face, and she raised an eyebrow, her tone turning cold and hard.
"Are you really that busy? You can't even find time to eat a meal? My dad isn't as busy as you at work!"
The last sentence already carried a hint of threat.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Churan got into Wang Siyuan's car. He really couldn't afford to offend Dean Wang right now.
"Chu Ran, where do you think we should eat? How about we go for steak?" Wang Siyuan said in her sweet voice as she watched Li Chu Ran get into the car.
Why didn't you just come up earlier? You had to make her bring up his father before you'd give in. You're such a jerk.
"Whatever, you decide!" Li Churan said in a cold tone. To him, it didn't matter what he ate, as long as it ended sooner.
"Let's go eat steak!" She found a dimly lit Western restaurant, perfect for her to cultivate her relationship with Li Churan.
"Okay, I have no objection!" Li Churan nodded in response without even hearing clearly.
Regardless of his thoughts, she was determined to have Li Churan.
For the next few days, Wang Siyuan practically camped out at the entrance of the office building every day, using various excuses to drag Li Churan out.
With such frequent occurrences, it quickly became common knowledge within a specific small circle in H country that Wang Siyuan was pursuing Li Churan.
