"Okay, but let me make this clear first, I won't agree to your excessive requests. Besides, I will only agree to three things for you, and you are not allowed to threaten me with them afterwards." The purple-eyed girl finally spoke, and every word she said shattered Gu Ran's last hope.
"Okay." She heard herself say, "Then first thing, I want 30% of the Meng family's shares."
Shi Wuqing said coldly: "Impossible!"
"If you can't do it, then you will be the murderer who killed your brother and is condemned by everyone."
"..." Shi Wuqing was silent for a while, then as if giving in, he whispered, "Give me a few days."
Seeing her agree, Gu Ran felt a dull pain in her chest. She suddenly said, "Qingqing, the first time you and I met wasn't planned, right?"
The purple-eyed girl's gaze was more scrutinizing. She looked at Gu Ran, as if she could see her nervousness and anticipation, and raised the corners of her mouth sarcastically: "At this point, what are you and I still pretending to be?"
"I admit, I approached you on purpose."
Because... they had met before.
It was last winter. She sat on the bridge, unable to find a home in the white world. She couldn't let go of the thought of leaving her brother and her family who had been separated from her for many years.
The passers-by around her ignored her, and she sat in the falling snow for several hours until Gu Ran walked up to her.
Gu Ran didn't stay, but just said lightly: "It will be sunny tomorrow." and left.
Shi Wuqing turned around and only saw a back, but she remembered the voice.
In fact, it’s not really a matter of redemption. It just happened that the snow stopped falling and the wind wasn’t so cold anymore, so it made people suddenly want to cry.
For Shi Wuqing, there is nothing to look forward to in the future, and she is also afraid of the lonely and endless tomorrow.
But Gu Ran was not afraid. She told her that it would be sunny tomorrow.
So... that night, meeting Gu Ran and helping Gu Ran was just a natural thing to do.
[? ? This memory? ]
[Although there is no psychological description, but just from these pictures, it can be seen that Qingqing really cares about the heroine (surprise)]
[But? ? How could it be? If that's the case, why did she still kill Ranran? ]
This person is so contradictory.
[She also admitted that she approached Ranran on purpose? Didn't she know that Ranran would misunderstand that she had an ulterior motive?]
[Of course she knows, but in her eyes, Ran Ran is the villain now, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s a misunderstanding or not.]
Qingqing is a contradiction. It's true that she cares about her brother, but it's also true that she killed him. It's also true that she cares about Ranran, but it's also true that she wants to kill her...
[Isn't this one of those clichéd, "Because I can't have weaknesses, everything I care about must be destroyed" scenarios? Too twisted!]
Hearing the answer, the last trace of warmth in Gu Ran's eyes disappeared, and she smiled softly: "Is that so? Then all along, it was just a show, right?"
"Of course, I just want to ride on your popularity. After all, my brother has never used the power of the family to enhance his reputation before. If I suddenly use it, it will arouse suspicion."
"I see." Then I don't have to feel guilty anymore.
"You can go now." Gu Ran said with a smile.
Shi Wuqing looked at her coldly: "Get rid of this thing that imitates my brother. If you try to disgust me again, I can't guarantee what I will do."
Gu Ran just smiled.
Shi Wuqing turned and left the room.
Where Gu Ran couldn't see, a tear slowly slid down the corner of her eye.
