Gou An was certain that He Ran was a psychopath.
After the failed attempt to dissolve the marriage contract during the torrential rain that night, this elder brother disappeared without a trace during the next few days of vacation, as if he had disappeared directly from this beautiful world.
After finally waiting to return to school, Gou An went to the student union office, the gymnasium and other places where He Ran often went to try to catch him, but always came up empty-handed.
Those who didn't know would think he was dead.
However, this big brother's circle of friends is very active, updated every day, jumping around in various entertainment venues——
I had some free time so I drew a map of Young Master He's new habitat, and finally came to the conclusion: the center of this map is the CW Commercial Center, which seems to be a milk tea shop where a schoolgirl named Lu works part-time.
Rumors spread everywhere for a while.
In response to this, my fiancée, Miss Gou, seemed to be deaf or dumb.
She was unshakable and persistent in looking for He Ran. After looking for him several times, she didn't catch him and always met other second-generation rich friends in the circle... A group of people were all He Ran's younger brothers. They knew nothing about the love-hate relationship between He Ran, Gou An and Lu Wan. They just thought that Gou An was too excited and showed the "due" reluctance to part with He Ran's sudden cheating. When they saw her, they couldn't help but make a fuss, saying that Miss Gou was really great. Did she hear the rumors? She was so restless, so strict and clingy. Brother Ran would not like it -
This group of people were on the cruise ship last week. They witnessed He Ran having a big fight with Gou An over Lu Wan. Even though they knew nothing at this moment, they could still say these sarcastic remarks. Naturally, they had no good intentions.
Gou An was too lazy to argue with them, but after a while she realized that He Ran was deliberately avoiding her, which was very puzzling: it seemed as if he was the one who did something wrong.
The sword of Damocles of tears behind bars hangs over my head day and night. If this broken engagement is not cancelled, I will have nightmares every night.
After a few days, Gou An, with dark circles under his eyes, suddenly felt like checking He Ran's friendship level and found that it had risen from [33] back to [35]...
Quite outrageous.
It is true that a man’s heart is as unpredictable as a needle in the sea.
On Friday, after the last ideological and political theory class in the afternoon, Gou An was happily sitting in the department student union office packing her personal belongings to prepare for the weekend. At this time, the director of the External Relations Department pushed the door in, stuffed a flyer into her hand, and begged her to take it to the school student union office and give it to He Ran.
Gou An took a look at the flyer - what good could a director of external relations do? It was nothing more than asking the school student union, a group of financial sponsors with a special structure and whose words were enforced in the school, to generously allocate some funds for the department basketball game...
She raised her eyelids and said, "Let me go? Do you really want the student union to pay for it? I thought the whole world knew about the quarrel between He Ran and I on the cruise ship before May Day. He is so annoyed with me now."
Miss Gou spoke in a sarcastic tone, and the director of the External Relations Department smiled and said, "Then you are still President He's fiancée, right?"
oh.
yes.
Why not?
At least for now.
Gou An took the flyer and turned to go to the school student union office. He originally thought that he would come back empty-handed again this time, so he was ready to do his job conscientiously, put up the flyer and leave. Unexpectedly, there was someone in the school student union office this time.
A group of second-generation rich people occupied the school’s public resources (the *school student union office) and drank tea and ate melon seeds in the name of holding a meeting.
"Brother Ran, Gou An hasn't come to see you these days."
He couldn't see inside through the office door, but Gou An recognized the voice. The speaker was Zhou Yanji, one of He Ran's lackeys.
Zhou Yanji is the youngest son of the Zhou family, a real estate developer in Jiangcheng. Relying on the fact that he is the youngest in the family and has two capable older brothers, he was very stubborn and refused to obey the instructions to study abroad. He insisted on studying for a master's degree in a domestic university with He Ran... The Zhou family habitually spoiled this youngest son to the sky and had no way to deal with him. They donated a teaching building with great effort to squeeze this young master who couldn't even explain "how old are you" into Jiangcheng A University.
At this time, Gou An heard his name in a casual voice, so he stopped pushing the door open, paused for a moment, and stood outside the door.
There was silence inside the door for a few seconds, and then someone sneered and said calmly, "It's better not to come. It's annoying to see her."
Who else could it be but He Ran.
Gou An outside the door raised his eyebrows, thinking that what He Ran said was very rude.
If you are annoyed with her, just fire her immediately. Why are you dragging your feet and not dealing with it? What are you trying to achieve? Inside the door, He Ran's words really caused a bunch of second-generation rich people to laugh. Zhou Yanji changed his sitting posture at this moment, playing with the purple clay teacup in his hand, tilting his head, with short hair like a hedgehog, and the diamond earring on his left ear sparkling: "Brother Ran, are you really interested in that Lu Wan?"
He was still talking about what happened on the cruise ship that day.
That day, Gou An poured a whole glass of red wine on Lu Wan's head. He Ran was very angry and thought that she was bullying her classmates. He personally held Lu Wan's shoulders and took her off the cruise ship.
Not to mention that the two of them somehow managed to recognize each other later and unlocked the "childhood savior CP" achievement.
Others didn't know the reason, they just saw Gou An being humiliated in public, and because of this incident, Gou An became a topic of conversation in their circle. It was the first time for everyone to see Miss Gou being humiliated so much, and they all found it very fresh and interesting.
Sitting behind the desk at this time, He Ran gave Zhou Yanji a cold look, meaning: It's none of your business.
"Am I serious?" Zhou Yanji smiled frivolously, speaking frivolously as always, his black eyes flickering and no one knew if he was serious or not. "If you don't want to live in peace anymore, break up with her as soon as possible. Let me try."
When Zhou Yanji said this, everyone around him was shocked.
No one knew where this idea came from. No one knew when he started thinking about Gou An.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at He Ran - He Ran was the only one present who didn't react much. He looked at Zhou Yanji expressionlessly, not saying yes, but not saying no either.
However, the latter did not seem to be frightened by his low pressure, and shrugged indifferently: "My mother likes Gou An very much, and has always said that she can't become the daughter-in-law of your He family, and she told me to bring her over to be her daughter-in-law no matter what."
He said this lightly, as if the previous remarks were entirely due to the fact that he was some extremely filial son, and had nothing to do with his personal wishes.
He Ran slowly retracted his gaze: "You said so and you did it? Did Gou An even look at you?"
Zhou Yanji smiled, revealing his white teeth: "It's not a big deal, you haven't even looked at her straight in the eye."
He Ran nodded: "Don't you think she's annoying? She makes a big fuss at the slightest provocation, like a firecracker. Who can stand it?"
Zhou Yanji smiled and shook his head, no one knew what he meant.
But Gou An, who was standing outside the door, didn't see it, but she figured out that her image in this circle of second-generation rich people was: an annoying firecracker.
At that moment, she actually wanted to push the door open and have a fight with He Ran, but then she thought it was really unnecessary. This kind of fight would really confirm her image as a firecracker. So she endured it and stood outside the door until her legs were sore. She finally pushed the door open after they changed the topic.
When Gou An appeared, the room suddenly became quiet.
He Ran was originally playing with his phone with a relaxed look on his face, chatting enthusiastically with no one knew who he was talking to, but now his face froze and he threw the phone away.
The legs that were resting on the table fell back to the ground.
"The department hopes that the school student union will allocate some funds." Gou An put down the flyer and looked at He Ran calmly, his tone quite official.
He Ran: “Oh.”
Then no one spoke, and the office suddenly became awkward.
There was dead silence for a few seconds.
Finally, it was Zhou Yanji who stood up. He was about 1.8 meters tall, reached out to pick up the flyer, took a look at it, bent down slightly and said to Gou An with a smile: "Brother Ran has been busy these days, it would be better if you hand this matter over to the secretariat. It just so happens that I am here today - I will take this job."
If someone stood up, more nonsense could be saved. Gou An turned his head, glanced at Zhou Yan's sharp fangs, and nodded slowly.
Sitting behind the desk, in front of so many people, He Ran tilted his head, his eyes flickered: "I heard you were looking for me these days."
Yo, you're not pretending to be a corpse anymore? Gou An: "I want to talk about what we talked about on the May Day holiday."
The atmosphere suddenly felt wrong.
He Ran stared at her for a while.
The air pressure in the office is so low that it's hard to breathe...
For a moment, Gou An felt as if He Ran was angry.
However, the friendship level above Young Master He’s head only flickered and did not drop.
After a long time, He Ran looked away and refused to talk.
Gou An felt uncomfortable, with her boots always hanging in the air and her posture almost stiff like a red-crowned crane: What on earth does this guy want to do? For a long time in the past, she really regarded He Ran as her boyfriend, even though he was unwilling to hold her hand.
Since ancient times, childhood sweethearts cannot resist the love from heaven, not to mention that the love from heaven is the true white moonlight in his childhood memory.
She admitted it.
If she took the initiative to withdraw, there would be no need for He Ran to break up with her because of Lu Wan. She also didn't need to turn love into hate, dislike Lu Wan everywhere, trip her up, and finally send herself to jail.
Canceling the engagement would obviously be good for both of them, but when it came time to do it, he just held on to it for some reason.
Shouldn't.
Logically speaking, shouldn't I be annoyed to death by this dead liar?
At this moment, no one except the two of them knew what they were talking about.
I just felt the atmosphere was a bit weird.
"He Ran, the sooner you solve it, the better," Gou An frowned and reminded, "Don't procrastinate."
"Why, are you anxious?"
Gou An asked the question lightly, and he thought he saw He Ran's cheeks tighten, as if he was grinding his back teeth.
Doesn't seem very happy.
It might be an illusion.
Because the friend degree is as stable as Mount Tai.
It must be an illusion.
What reason could he have to be unhappy?
Until Gou An turned around, held his head high and pushed open the door of the student union office.
She heard a fat cat wagging its tail and saying—
【Jiao Jiao: He is just unhappy. 】
[Jiaojiao: But the friendship level didn't drop, so strange, is the system broken? ]
Gou An didn't take the stupid cat's words to heart. After all, He Ran would soon be single again. Although he hadn't made it public, he would be able to pursue Lu Wan openly in due course...
I'm afraid he doesn't even have time to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Why should he be unhappy?
Her confidence continued until the department basketball game began.
The Sports Department of the Student Union of the department invited members of the school basketball team to take charge and to make the scene more lively. Surprisingly, He Ran, the student union president and captain of the school basketball team, who is very busy, actually showed up.
Although from beginning to end he just stood on the sidelines with a whistle in his mouth, blew lazily...
But because of his appearance, the attendance rate of the basketball game was ten times that of previous years.
The stands were packed with people, and during the halftime break, someone bumped into Gou An's shoulder.
Gou An turned his head and saw Tang Xinjiu sitting next to him. It was the one in his previous nightmare - no - it was the dream about the future that predicted the future. He cried and said that he dared not play with the vicious girl anymore, for fear that he would be killed by her one day.
Now Tang Xinjiu is still her good friend. To be honest, this girl is really timid. Last week, both Jiaojiao’s death and the glass of red wine poured on her schoolmate’s head scared her... The fact that she didn’t turn around and fly three meters away immediately showed that she loved Gou An deeply.
Gou An didn't blame her for her later defection. He raised one eyebrow and looked down at her, meaning: What are you doing? At this time, Tang Xinjiu was still the original party who held high the banner of the original CP. He pointed at He Ran who was standing on the sidelines not far away and wiped his sweat impatiently: "Your boyfriend is going to be dried up by the heat."
Gou An looked in the direction she pointed. During the half-time break, He Ran was rolling up his sleeves to watch the replay of the game.
Among the team in today's department competition was a junior who was the future main force of the school team. As the captain of the school team, he was watching the replay of the game with a gloomy face, and it seemed that he was about to scold this unlucky guy who performed poorly today.
Tang Xinjiu pushed Gou An again and stuffed a bottle of mineral water into her hands.
Gou An thought about it and realized that in the past, before He Ran even had the first drop of sweat, her towel and mineral water were already in place...
But they are now at a critical juncture of breaking up.
She sat for a while and didn't want to go, but Tang Xinjiu kept elbowing her and asking her why she was still standing there, which was really annoying...
Ten minutes later, Gou An reluctantly took the mineral water and went.
She pushed through the crowds and finally squeezed next to Young Master He. She moved her lips but before she could say anything, the man seemed to have sensed her arrival and looked up from the computer that was replaying the game video.
The two looked at each other across the monitor.
The hostility in Young Master He's eyes had not dissipated at all, his dark pupils had turned into thick ink spots, and he looked at Gou An expressionlessly.
Gou An placed the bottle of mineral water in his hand next to him, thought for a moment, and then touched his hand which was resting on the edge of the computer desk with the bottle.
He Ran didn't say anything until people around them started to notice their interaction and looked over. Then he raised his hand and used the back of his hand to push away the bottle of mineral water that Gou An had handed to him.
After wiping his sweat off, he turned his head and glanced at a busy figure behind him. He said lazily in a teasing tone, "Hey, give me a bottle of water! Can't you see that I'm exhausted from the competition in your department?"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the slender figure with her back to everyone swayed, and without looking back, she said "Oh", bent down and took a bottle of iced mineral water from the water tank, then turned around and handed it over.
For a moment, there was complete silence all around.
With her slender white hands holding the bottle of iced mineral water, Lu Wan looked at the expressionless Gou An across a computer desk and He Ran, and her face suddenly turned as pale as a piece of paper.
