"What are you talking about? The school's leader is treating you to a meal, what's my status? "

Mu Wenwen felt his head hurt from his mindless words. He thought that there were still people waiting for him outside, so he quickly said,

"Alright, alright. If you want to go, then go. If there's nothing else, then die!"

His unrelenting voice was slowly heard.

"Anyway, they are inviting me in Chengshi, so when the time comes, you just have to go to Chengshi!"

With some pleading and some orders, she could vaguely see the insistence on his face, as if she didn't want him to hang up if she didn't agree. She could only bite the bullet and say,

"Alright!"

Only then did he smile with satisfaction in her direction.

"See you tonight!"

After hanging up the phone, Mu Ran found a seat and sat down before letting out a long breath. He had been tormented for the entire day and his heart was in knots. Could it be that he couldn't bear to see her peacefully live?

The sounds of footsteps gradually receded from outside. Luo Xintong also walked in from outside, teasing her with a smile.

"Alright, you can relax now that he's gone!"

If it wasn't for her, how could she be bullied by him like this? It was fine if he bullied her on the bed, but if he ate her outside, what kind of friend was she making?

she asked hesitantly, frowning as she glanced at Lo Xintong.

"Luo, do you really like that handsome school director?"

Lo Shintong sat down across from her and toyed with his nails in boredom.

"I, I don't know either. Anyway, I admire him more!"

"Just admiring? "Luo Xin Tong, you …!"

Mu Ran was so angry that he stood up and complained.

"I thought you liked him so much that it's engraved in your memory. You only hurt me because you admire him, hurt me because of me …"

She could not bring herself to finish the sentence. She could only glare angrily at Lo Shintong.

Lo Xin Tong knew his limits and immediately begged for mercy.

"Hey hey, aren't you still dating him? "Only after our relationship will you know if you will really love her so deeply that it will be etched into your memories!"

She couldn't even describe how she felt about Zhuo Wenfeng. His unrestrained appearance and knowledgeable status deeply attracted her. It made her want to explore his inner world even more.

She admired him more than she was moved by him. A woman like her was too strong. Only a man stronger than her could control her, so she relied on her instincts to get close to him and follow him.

Even though Mu Wenwen was angry, she was still her best friend after all. What she wished for the most was for her to be able to be happy, so she couldn't help but urge her.

"Luo, forgive me for speaking bluntly, Zhuo Shuangfeng is not suitable for you!"

That man was clearly not the type to be obedient. His good family background and his generous qualifications made him seem proud and unreachable. Furthermore, she could also see that his treatment of Luo Xintong … There was no love at all.

She didn't know why he would tell Luo Xintong that he would agree to meet her as long as she could invite him to give a lecture in the city. She only knew that he seemed to like handsome men very much on the surface, but in reality, she was a very conservative person.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have allowed her pursuers to line up without having been in a relationship with a man. She also held the mentality of entering a long marriage once she had fallen in love, so her Arlo couldn't be hurt in a relationship.

But love was sometimes so overwhelming that people couldn't resist it, just as Gu Mo Cheng had done for her. In fact, she knew it herself, they weren't suitable, but they still loved each other. She didn't know how long his love for her would last, and she could only cling to her present happiness.

Seeing that she was lost in thought again, Lo Shintong could only laugh and comfort her.

"Alright, Xiao Yan, I will consider it carefully!"

Only then did Mu Ran release his tightly creased brows. He went with Luo Xin Tong to the instructor's office to continue working hard for his thesis, trying to change it.

At night, she didn't want to go to some Chengshi Hotel. The school head invited him, but he told her to go with him to join in the fun. In the end, he actually sent Long Er to pick her up, so she had no choice but to go.

Long Er told her the room number and then went to park the car. She sent him a text message with her cell phone asking what he was up to, then walked to the hotel lobby with her head down.

A commotion sounded from the elevator not far away, followed by the sound of hurried, noisy footsteps. When she looked up, she saw a bunch of men in black sunglasses walking over from the elevator.

The person in the lead was dressed in a black attire, with thick black sunglasses on his straight nose, and killing intent and coldness coexisted in his every movement. Although she felt a shiver in her heart, she still vaguely felt that man's face was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was at the moment.

As that group of people walked over, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much colder. Hearing the people around her whispering something to the man in the middle, she suddenly realized and gasped in surprise.

"See the brocade!"

So it was him, no wonder she felt that it was familiar. If she hadn't heard those people speak empty words to him, she really wouldn't have remembered. She didn't expect that after so many months, that severely injured and destitute man would actually transform into such a cruel and merciless man.

Just as she finished her sentence, one of the followers in the crowd behind him suddenly turned his head and glared at her. Her eyes were filled with killing intent, causing her to freeze on the spot.

The man in the lead merely stopped and turned his head back to give her a glance before lowering his head and hurriedly leading the group past her.

She couldn't make out the expression in his eyes under the heavy sunglasses, but she sensed that he was indifferent and didn't seem to recognize her. She smiled indifferently. She didn't expect him to remember her anyway, saving people was her natural duty.

She felt a bit pleasantly surprised. In any case, they had been together for a period of time, so she could be regarded as an ordinary friend. She just wanted to greet him in an ordinary manner, but she didn't expect him to return the gesture with such indifference.

The group of people whispered to the leader of the group as they walked.

"Boss, why would that woman know you?" Your identity is so sensitive right now, do you want to kill her? "

When he saw the brocade stop in front of the hotel entrance, he took out a cigarette and lit it up. Amidst the smoke, he could only spit out a single sentence.

"Shui Ye, she's the woman who saved me!"

The man who spoke was one of his trusted aides. His name was Shui Ye Gang and only he knew that he was saved by a woman in Jia Country.

However, this sentence alone was enough to cause the man who had just said that he would kill her to suck in a cold sweat and then nod in apology.

"Sorry, Boss, I didn't expect it to be her!"

The person who saved the Boss was equivalent to saving the entire Li Clan, which was the same as saving the entire Void realm. He should've respected her, but he actually said that he would kill her.

Furthermore, after being by the Boss' side for so many years, he had a keen sense of what the Boss thought of the woman who had saved his life. It was as if she wasn't the only one who had saved his life.

He didn't say anything about his apology, just walked coldly down the steps to the car that was coming to pick him up, and came face-to-face with a row of luxurious cars, one of which, a silver-gray, stopped him in his tracks and narrowed his eyes slightly under his sunglasses.

The cars stopped one by one in front of the hotel, and a group of well-dressed people got off the car. From their manner and speech, it was obvious that they were famous people of all walks of life, and the person in the crowd, wearing a silver-gray suit with a royal blue tie, stood out among the crowd like a condescending king.

He wasn't as expressionless as he was, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He was gentle and courteous, and only his eyes, which were as deep as a lake, hid a hidden disdain.

The man stopped and looked in his direction, and the smile on his face was frozen for a moment. Their gazes met in the air, and after a fierce collision, they both went their separate ways. He lowered his head and got into the car, while the man walked towards the hotel.

If he remembered correctly, that man was her husband who was on the verge of getting a divorce. They had met once before, and they had even fought before, but at that time, he was seriously injured and was at a disadvantage.

But, what did this mean? Had she been waiting for this man in the hotel lobby? Still not divorced? He thought too much and could not help but clench his forehead as he leaned against the back seat with a determined face. Slowly, a depressed look appeared on his face.
