Kill crazy! The real daughter rushed to rectify the rich family!

The remaining sunlight in the sky faded away, and the endless night covered the sky.

The lights in the manor in the distance were lit up, and the sound of luxury car engines outside the door became more and more frequent. Judging from the noise, it didn't seem like a funeral but more like a feast.

In the eyes of Qin Ranqiu, who had been inexplicably fascinated by that figure, the only place in the entire manor where a funeral was actually held should be this deserted little building and this waterside covered with moss and weeds.

After giving the flowers, the boy finally stood up.

He moved very slowly, and it was obvious that his body had not yet fully recovered. There were moments when one could not help but wonder if he was going to commit suicide by diving into the water.

But he still stood up.

The thin and long body looked even more empty and desolate under the illumination of a single distant street lamp.

He turned around, and Qin Ranqiu, whose legs had been numb from squatting in the bushes, had no time to hide. While she was frantically thinking about how to explain herself, the young man had already walked up to her with a cane.

The black eyes glanced over.

Qin Ranqiu opened his mouth to speak, but his gaze had already been withdrawn.

He walked past her.

Calm, reserved, pale and deathly silent, he did not seem like a ball of air passing by, but rather as if he himself was a ball of air.

So he left in silence.

For the entire afternoon, or perhaps even longer, he just sat by the water without saying a word, and when he left, he was as quiet as death.

-

Later, Qin Ranqiu always thought of that afternoon.

There is clearly no particular memorable moment, but the long stretches of silence are inexplicably clear and profound.

The boy's thin and straight back, his bony neck showing through the overlapping collar of his hospital gown and formal suit, the arc of his hair when the wind blew it, and the constantly moving and changing spring sun...

As she grew older, the more she saw Wen Can, who was gentle, calm and dazzling in front of others, the more she was attracted to that silent afternoon in her memory.

"I just caught a glimpse of him by accident..." Qin Ranqiu paused and said softly, "A real fragment."

"I thought we were the same kind," she said. "He acted in front of people, but was a completely different person behind their backs. I thought we could understand each other, and I hoped we could heal each other's wounds, but... his shell was too thick."

Qin Ranqiu looked a little bitter: "I approached him intentionally or unintentionally, and confessed everything to him first, telling him all my pain, ambition, and hatred, day after day, year after year. I thought that I would be able to melt his shell, but he..." She smiled, "When I thought I had impressed him, he threw a cooperation plan at me."

"He invited me to become a shareholder of Xingfei - this may be the greatest openness he has shown me, but this is not what I want at all."

"From the beginning to the end, he only regarded me as a business partner and a family ally, just like Jiang Xu..."

If I go on any further, it will all become embarrassing.

Qin Ranqiu took a deep breath and looked up at Ye Kong.

The girl had a blank expression on her face from beginning to end. She just stood there and listened to her - no, it was not even clear whether she was listening carefully or not.

Qin Ranqiu clenched her fingers slightly, but still couldn't hold back the strange jealousy that surged up in her heart, and couldn't help but say a few more words: "To be honest, I still don't think Wen Can would really like anyone, let alone love him - I don't know what happened to him, anyway, it's probably related to Teacher Chi. Over the years, I've seen countless types of women throw themselves at him, even men... but he's like a monk who has cut off all emotions and desires."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but say, "I even doubt whether he is good at that."

"..." Ye Kong's expressionless face suddenly cracked. Her eyes instantly became sharp, slashing at the other side like a blade, and her tone was as sharp as a blade, "You dare to seduce him?"

"..." Qin Ranqiu inexplicably had a broken jar mentality, raised his head slightly and said coldly, "He's already a 27-year-old man, what's wrong with being seduced? Many women have seduced him, don't you?"

Ye Kong: ...

Grass (a kind of plant), she really doesn't have any.

Qin Ranqiu's eyes turned contemptuous: "Yes, you are just a college student, what do you know?"

"..." Ye Kong had a blank expression on his face. "I don't understand anything. I have held hands and kissed him before."

"..." Qin Ranqiu's pupils trembled, and he stared at Ye Kong blankly as if he had suffered a major blow. "He...you...you...you took the initiative, right?!"

She said suddenly: "A man like Wen Can..." She looked unimaginable, "How could he take the initiative to propose such a thing? You must have forced a kiss on him!"

Ye Kong: ...

Grass (a kind of plant), really...

Ye Kong suddenly thought of the last time, and immediately said as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "No, he was the one who took the initiative when we kissed last time."

Although the girl had no expression on her face, her slightly raised head fully demonstrated her pride.

As arrogant as an emperor who has received the free devotion of a beautiful woman.

Qin Ranqiu's eyes and mouth felt sore as if he had eaten an unripe orange.

Seeing her expression, Ye Kong's mood strangely became better. She actually had something to say - such as how Wen Can continued to improve her baking skills, how they would make video calls every day, and how Wen Can would even hum songs to coax her to sleep...

After saying these, Qin Ranqiu's expression will definitely become more interesting.

But Ye Kong didn't want to say it. Saying that they had kissed was already the limit - she didn't want anyone to know the details of their relationship.

At this time, Ye Kong had not yet discovered that she had been hiding all the time she had spent with Wen Can, and had tried to use a camera to preserve every memorable moment, just like a dragon collecting treasures, or an undead demon hiding the unpublished draft of "Stars" and not wanting anyone to see it in advance.

These are all her own instinctive reactions full of her personal habits and preferences.

But even if only a little bit was leaked, Qin Ranqiu in front of her still trembled slightly and her eyes turned red. She pursed her lips tightly and said stubbornly after a while: "Kissing doesn't mean anything."

Then she added: "Besides, it's not just Wen Can who has a hard time falling in love with others. I think you're also a person who has a hard time falling in love with others, right?"

She looked at Ye Kong coldly: "Ms. Ye is a well-known lunatic in Yuzhou. You are so egoistic that you dared to set up a trap at the banquet, framed the entire upper class, destroyed the Li family, abandoned the Ye family, and you can even abandon your blood relatives at will. Can you really fall in love with someone?"

"Even if you really have feelings for him, if he doesn't do what you want, will you force him to face an extreme choice like you did with the Ye family, and then dump him openly?"

"What exactly are your standards? Does Wen Can really meet your standards?"

Qin Ranqiu suddenly took a step closer, looked into her eyes, and lowered his voice: "After all, why are you two together?"

"Can a not-so-pure beginning really breed pure love?"

The cold wind whistled between the two of them.

In Ye Kong's stunned eyes, Qin Ranqiu finally said: "I'm waiting to see you break up."

She took a step back, a sly smile suddenly appeared on her face: "If it's Wen Can, I would be happy to be the scapegoat."

Ye Kong: ...

After being choked for a while, Ye Kong finally called out to Qin Ranqiu from afar.

"Don't even think about it."

She made a decisive decision: "I will never let him go."

"Even if I really can't fall in love with him - but if even he can't make me fall in love with him, then there is no man in this world worth my second glance."
