Xu Xingran gave him a strange look, but still spoke honestly.

"At that time, Qin An and the other two had knives out and threatened to rape and kill me. How could I have a good ending if I fell into their hands? I might have been able to save my life if I jumped down."

Xu Xingran actually had very simple ideas.

They were about to die, but they were still insulted and tortured to death.

Just jump and be done with it.

In fact, she was confident that she would survive.

Because the process of climbing the mountain and escaping took a long time, she reached the top and guessed that the time was past twelve o'clock.

Her crow's mouth started again.

As she jumped, she cursed herself for being lucky enough to survive.

Well...even though she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit it.

He Hansheng is her shit luck.

He Hansheng's eyes gradually deepened after hearing her words.

"Why wouldn't you want to delay a little longer? You can trust me."

Xu Xingran, who was a little hungry at first, suddenly lost her appetite and pushed the plate away.

Then she folded her arms across her chest and looked at him leisurely.

There was a teasing look in his eyes.

"He Hansheng, don't you think you're being weird? Why should I trust someone who takes a risk on me? You want to harm me, but you expect me to trust you unconditionally. Is that possible? I remember I said it very clearly. Your credibility with me is zero."

Xu Xingran's tone was full of impatience.

"All your specialness and preference are only for Xia Qingqing, not me. Why should I gamble? You are not worth my gamble."

There was surging anger in He Hansheng's eyes.

He narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Am I so unworthy of your trust?"

Xu Xingran was so angry that she laughed.

She looked at He Hansheng seriously.

"He Hansheng, let me ask you a question."

"You ask."

"If, if I was kidnapped by Qin An, and Qin An asked you to exchange Xia Qingqing for me, would you do it?"

He Hansheng: ...

He Hansheng said nothing, but his brows were knitted tightly together and couldn't be relaxed.

Xu Xingran smiled.

No answer.

is the best answer.

He Hansheng also realized this problem, his eyes darkened.

Then he stood up suddenly.

"You have a good rest, I'll go out for a while."

Looking at He Hansheng's fleeing figure, Xu Xingran shrugged indifferently.

He Hansheng is like this.

He is a powerful figure in the business world, able to plan and control everything.

But when it comes to relationships, he can't handle them well, so he just ignores them.

Similar to escape.

So Xu Xingran has been really tired over the years.

He treated Xia Qingqing so specially that whenever she asked him, he would just say "I just treat her as my sister". When she continued to ask why he had to spend her birthday with her, he gave the gift for her to Xia Qingqing...

He Hansheng will directly give her a supplement.

If she asked again, He Hansheng would become impatient.

Either he goes directly to the study to handle official business, or he goes on a business trip and doesn't come back for many days.

During this process, Xu Xingran has been reflecting on himself, consuming himself, and adjusting himself.

Then she would take the initiative to send a message to He Hansheng to make peace, and He Hansheng would come back "mercifully".

Over time, she no longer dared to ask or speak.

She loves deeply, she has been struggling with herself, denying herself, and surrendering herself...

Too tired.

Fortunately, she has come to terms with it now and no longer desires He Hansheng's love.

He Hansheng treated her coldly now, but she was happy instead.

And this kidnapping is not a bad thing.

Wasn’t the engagement party automatically cancelled?

If they fail to get engaged once or twice, she and He Hansheng are destined not to be together.

Besides, she will be going abroad in a few days.

Then he completely drew a line between himself and He Hansheng.

When Lu Juan arrived at the luxurious private room, He Hansheng was drinking one glass of wine after another.

His face was gloomy.

If it weren't for Lu Juan, no one else would dare to get close to He Hansheng now.

The hostility and low pressure from him can freeze anyone to pieces.

Lu Juan took a bottle of wine from the bar in the box, unscrewed it, and came to He Hansheng's side.

"Your situation is not right! The second engagement party didn't happen. Are you sad?"

The biggest topic in the capital right now is that He Hansheng and Xu Xingran’s second engagement party has not been scheduled.

If it doesn’t work the first time and it doesn’t work the second time, it’s hard to judge.

It seemed like even God was saying that they were not suitable.

He Hansheng didn't say anything, but just drank one glass of wine after another.

Lu Juan asked curiously, "I heard that Xia Qingqing was kidnapped. Did you use Xu Xingran to exchange for Xia Qingqing?"

He Hansheng frowned and gave him a death look.

Lu Juan was not afraid at all, but became interested instead.

"I'm really curious, do you care more about Xu Xingran or Xia Qingqing? Or do you want both the red rose and the white rose?"

If He Hansheng didn't care about Xu Xingran, why did he rush to get engaged for the second time?

If you care, why would you exchange Xu Xingran for Xia Qingqing?

Since Xu Xingran was exchanged for Xia Qingqing, he must care about Xia Qingqing more.

Then why not just be with Xia Qingqing directly?

This is what Lu Juan didn't understand.

But based on the bad nature of men, he suddenly understood something.

For example, He Hansheng wanted them all.

Give Xu Xingran a name, and give Xia Qingqing some love.

Because Xu Xingran is a person with a strong sense of morals, it is impossible for her to be a mistress.

And Xia Qingqing is a person who is willing to be a third party for love.

A man, an excellent man, must feel very satisfied if two women are vying for him, right?

Is this what He Hansheng pursues?

He Hansheng picked up the wine glass expressionlessly and took another big sip.

"I don't like Xia Qingqing."

Lu Juan raised his eyebrows.

"From the tone of your voice, do you like Xu Xingran?"

Yes, if he didn’t like her, why would he give Xu Xingran the status of his girlfriend?

How could he get engaged to her?

Moreover, He Hansheng hated calculation and betrayal the most.

He Hansheng did not pursue the matter of Xu Xingran drugging him.

Actually...he has Xu Xingran in his heart?

Lu Juan patted He Hansheng on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Brother, if you really like Xu Xingran, this matter will be difficult for you to handle! If you like her, how can you bear to let her get hurt? You are not unaware of her reputation and ridicule in the imperial capital over the years. This time, you even used her to exchange for Xia Qingqing's safety. Your behavior does not seem like you like her and care about her!"

People in the imperial capital, people in their circle, all live in the world of fame and fortune.

Each of them has a sharp eyesight.

If He Hansheng values ​​Xu Xingran, who would dare to mock Xu Xingran?

But looking at the entire imperial capital, who isn't mocking Xu Xingran?

And what about Xia Qingqing?

She is known as the little princess of the imperial capital.

Whose little princess?

He Hansheng's.

Wherever Xia Qingqing goes, she will be pampered and cared for.

In such a comparison, Xu Xingran was really left in the dust.
