In Gu Ran's mind, a long-lost and familiar system prompt sounded: "100 points of negative emotion value from Anne Hathaway are sensed, and the system bubble is being generated..."

A bright red, plump, perfect bubble then formed under Annie's feet.

Gu Ran: ...

Turns out, getting Annie's perfect bubbles is so simple.

It turns out that there is no need to do anything extra. You just need to stand within 10 meters of Annie and wait for Annie to lose control of her emotions in an instant.

It turns out...Annie's heart is so bitter, full of negative emotions.

After realizing this, Gu Ran did not feel happy at all.

On the contrary, I feel very sad.

Since his rebirth, Anne Hathaway is the first girl that Gu Ran feels distressed about.

Anne had a really hard time at this stage.

She clearly possesses stunning beauty and superb acting skills, but she is not accepted by mainstream Hollywood, and she is so depressed that she cannot live like an ordinary person.

How hard it is to accept this.

Gu Ran knew in his heart that Annie was sick.

It's not a physical illness, it's a mental illness.

It is a mental illness caused by long-term negative evaluation and high self-doubt.

This disease is also called "extroverted autism", "bipolar disorder" and "depression".

People with this disease appear to be very happy and sunny on the surface, and they act normal and pleasantly when talking to others. However, in a blink of an eye, a very small thing will trigger the negative emotions that have been pent up in their hearts for a long time and that they cannot clear up on their own.

From the perspective of picking up bubbles, Annie's current state is simply a super blessing given by God.

Gu Ran doesn’t need to do anything, he can pick up a talent-level bubble at least once a day.

However, from a personal emotional point of view, Gu Ran would rather not pick it up so easily.

The pressure of being a Hollywood actress is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, Anne's depression is probably still an early stage symptom and is not too serious. As long as she is guided properly, she will gradually return to normal.

Although Annie's recovery means that it will no longer be so easy to pick up talent points, Gu Ran is also willing to help Annie recover.

As for the talent points dropped during Annie's recovery process, Gu Ran naturally would not waste them.

These talent points will help Gu Ran become stronger.

When Gu Ran becomes stronger, he can help Annie better, and even directly rewrite Annie's fate! Gu Ran immediately concentrated his mind and took the talent point bubble under Annie's feet directly into his mind.

After Anne's emotional breakdown, she realized that she shouldn't have done that, so she quickly stopped crying and silently began to clean up the broken dishes.

Gu Ran walked to Annie's side and grabbed her hand directly.

Annie was stunned and asked quickly: "Gu, you, you, what are you doing?"

As she spoke, Annie struggled subconsciously, but her strength was simply not enough in front of Gu Ran.

Gu Ran said in an unquestionable tone: "Don't pack up yet, just follow me."

"Where to go?" Annie was a little flustered.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered the warning given to her by her female assistant.

Anne became even more frightened.

Living alone with a stranger is really dangerous! Annie struggled and panted, "Gu, you, let me go first. I really lost control of my emotions just now. I'm sorry! But I'm fine now! Really! I will double the compensation for the bowl I broke!"

Annie's horrified look made Gu Ran feel that his behavior was simply a crime.

But Gu Ran still hardened his heart and continued to hold Annie's hand tightly, "Be obedient and follow me."

Even if Annie was afraid, even if Annie would misunderstand him, even if Annie would feel disgusted with him, Gu Ran would still do this.

He wanted to forcibly intervene in Anne's world and use forceful methods to force Anne to slowly get rid of the depression that had accumulated in her heart.

The more Annie tried to pull her hand away, the tighter Gu Ran held on.

Gu Ran tore off the apron on Annie's waist and forcibly pulled the frightened Annie out of the kitchen, out of the villa and onto the soft beach.

Anne was completely stunned.

When Gu Ran roughly ripped off her apron just now, Annie thought...

It turned out that Gu Ran just took her to the beach.

etc!

He didn't want to be on the beach...

What a beast! In the open air! And it's all sand!!!

Annie was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body tensed up. The next second she wanted to shout for help.

Then Gu Ran said in a deep voice: "There are only two of us here, you can scream as loud as you want, no one can hear you."

Anne quickly closed her mouth in fear.

Gu Ran urged: "Just scream."

Annie shook her head desperately, not daring to make any sound.

Gu Ran frowned and said, "Hurry up and scream. If you don't scream, then I will scream."

Anne: …

After Gu Ran finished yelling, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It feels so good! Annie, you can yell too, just like I did just now, facing the sea, yell with all your strength, this will help you get rid of all the negative emotions in your heart. Believe me, after you finish yelling, you will feel refreshed in every cell of your body."

Annie opened her mouth and asked in disbelief: "You, you caught me just to teach me how to scream?"

Gu Ran said as a matter of course: "Yes, what else?"

Anne breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were going to...you were going to introduce this beach to me."

It turned out to be a misunderstanding! Although it was a misunderstanding, through this misunderstanding, Annie actually trusted Gu Ran more.

After all, there was really no one else here, so even if she screamed, no one would be able to hear her. In this environment, if Gu Ran really intended to do something by force, Annie would be unable to resist at all.

But that wasn't what Gu Ran meant.

Only then did Annie realize that Gu Ran just wanted to help her relieve her negative emotions.

This made Anne feel much safer.

Gu Ran is such a noble, upright, and considerate person, but I actually thought he had some kind of intention towards me.

I really shouldn't have done that...

Annie said apologetically, "Gu, thank you, but I'm really fine."

Gu Ran said: "Since you don't want to scream, I won't force you. I'll take a walk on the beach with you."

Anne thought about it and said, "...Okay."

Gu Ran continued to hold Annie's hand and took Annie for a walk along the long beach.

Annie felt that Gu Ran was a little too strong. After all, they had only known each other for half a day, and this man shouldn't have grabbed her hand without her consent.

but……

Annie couldn't help but secretly glance at Gu Ran out of the corner of her eye.

Being forcefully held by the hand by such a handsome boy, Annie actually felt her heart beating a little faster.

Moreover, when she was held tightly in Gu Ran's strong big hand, she couldn't help but feel a sense of dependence on his man.

Gu Ran held Annie's warm yet somewhat tense hand and walked along the beach in the sea breeze.

The two of them didn't say a word to each other the whole time, they just walked quietly.

They walked until they saw some human activity, then they turned around and walked back in tacit understanding.

Only after returning to the villa did Gu Ran let go of Annie's hand.

...So cool.

My hands are full of the scent of the goddess.

Holding the goddess' hand and walking on the beach, this feeling is so wonderful that it cannot be described in words!

Gu Ran almost couldn't maintain his cool and aloof personality.

——Fortunately, the acting is realistic.

Anne's mood also improved because of the walk on the beach. "Thank you, Gu. I feel much better, really. I'm sorry that you have to see my worst side."

Anne smiled self-deprecatingly, "A star like me is really a disgrace to Hollywood. No wonder people in Hollywood don't like me."

Gu Ran immediately said, "No, it's Hollywood that's not worthy of you, Annie."

Anne smiled and said, "Although I know you are comforting me, I am really happy to hear it."

Gu Ran looked directly into Annie's amber eyes. "I'm not comforting you. If you've known me for a long time, you'll understand that I never comfort anyone. I'm just stating the facts, and the fact is, you are the most perfect. You've just been under too much pressure recently. I never doubt that you will return to Hollywood, and I never doubt that you can win an Oscar. I believe that you are a brave heroine, and you don't need anyone's comfort or enlightenment. You just need to remember that I'm by your side during your sad days."

Anne was slightly startled, her heart felt a soft blow.

After a long while, she smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you... Gu, you are so kind. I am ashamed that I thought you just now... But don't worry, I will never think like that in the future. Being able to live with you is a ray of light that God gave me when I was about to fall into hell."

Gu Ran: ...

Gu Ran tried hard to maintain his cool persona, "Ahem, you're welcome... Since you're much better now, go ahead and wash the rest of the dishes."

To let Annie work more and think less.

Of course, the most important point is...if they continue chatting like this, Gu Ran is really afraid that he will lose control!

Annie was stunned at first, then she chuckled, "I thought you would let me rest, and then you would help me wash the dishes."

Gu Ran also laughed, "What are you thinking? I am the evil landlord. You have signed a cohabitation agreement with me, so you have to work honestly - after cleaning the kitchen, you still have to clean the whole villa. Don't be idle, get to work."

Anne pretended to be aggrieved. "Ah! I was fooled by you! But I have already signed the contract! Well, cruel landlord, it seems that I have no choice but to obey you."

After saying that, Annie smiled mischievously, turned around and ran back to the kitchen.

Holy shit…

Gu Ran felt like he couldn't bear it any longer.

I have to hold back, I have to hold back...

Gu Ran looked at Annie busy and happy in the kitchen, thinking back to the feeling of holding Annie's hand and Annie's expression, and secretly said: In the future, I will definitely give the goddess a set of European-style maid clothes! ...
