"I'm serious!" An Ran pretended to be indifferent, "I have already grown up, it's not good for me to always stay in your house …"

Su Luo Chen naturally knew what she meant. Even if he didn't mind, after marriage, there would be others who would mind.

Su Luo Chen looked at An Ran and suddenly laughed: "That's right, we have all grown up, we can't be like children anymore. "If I want to get married, you have to get married …"

An Ran suddenly felt his heart wetting. Her face was calm and relaxed, but his heart was already crying. She twitched her nose and only made a soft "En" sound. The depressing atmosphere made her chest feel heavy.

She had been by his side ever since she could remember. At such a young age, she could lose the company of her parents, but she couldn't lose him for a day. Even today, he still wanted to protect her closest sister from harm.

She was very obedient, very simple. She just quietly followed him and never bothered him.

However, he didn't know when, but she had started to change. She had become something he couldn't understand, something he couldn't see through.

She began to learn all sorts of bad, all kinds of mischief. He had thought that she was just a growing rebel, so he had never stopped her. Instead, he had helped her settle everything behind her back, allowing her to freely do whatever she wanted.

Wherever she appeared, she was surrounded by his people. Her every movement, every word, could not escape his eyes and ears.

In the An Ran, her parents hoped that she would spend the rest of her life in An Ran. She was happy and happy, and this responsibility had always been borne by Su Luo Chen.

No one would have imagined that after this boy called Su Luo Chen grew up, he would actually become the star of this city. He controlled everything here, just so that he could give her a copy of the An Ran.

An Ran twisted her body and walked to Su Luo Chen's study table. She placed her small hands on her head and scratched, then disdainfully retracted her hand, "Aiya, did you not wash your hair?

Su Luo Chen put down the document in his hand, his pitch-black eyes sweeping across her mischievous face. He then turned around and walked over. When he reappeared, his hair was wet, and there were traces of having just washed it, even though he had already washed it by the time he woke up in the morning.

In this city, An Ran was the only person who dared to lay a hand on Su Luo Chen, and was also the only person who dared to say that Su Luo Chen was "dirty to death".

Seeing Su Luo Chen wiping his hair and walking over, the An Ran burst into laughter, "You said I was messing around, why did I go and wash my hair?"

She was indeed fooling around. It was her right — her right alone.

Thus, he allowed her to do as she said, and even tacitly cooperated with her nonsense.

Su Luo Chen sat in front of the mirror and allowed the An Ran to dry his hair. Maybe this was the last time the An Ran blew her hair for Brother Chen.

He didn't say anything, only looked at her small face in the mirror. The air was filled with the sadness of parting, and a trace of pain flashed across his heart.

Had he finally let go of her first? Why didn't she get married first, when he saw her leave before he got married? She must be very sad, right?

Once, a little girl's tender voice said to him, "Brother Chen, will you not want me when you grow up?"

"I'll never leave you!"

At that time, they really did think that some tender promise could resist the erosion of time. It could stay that way forever, forever, until that day.

Su Luo Chen looked at the An Ran in the mirror, and the corner of his mouth curled into a bitter and helpless smile. In the end, she still wasn't able to grow into the appearance that he had in his heart.

Without waiting for Su Luo Chen to get married, on the day of his engagement banquet, the An Ran disappeared. Su Luo Chen felt as if his soul had been sucked out of his body, and yet, he could not find any place to stay in in his own home.

At the edge of the city, in a small village, An Ran was sleeping soundly on a bed. She had not opened her eyes for an entire day.

In the simple room, there were a few pieces of furniture, and a black-and-white television set. Compared to Su Luo Chen's villa, this place was really like heaven and earth.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, An Ran opened her eyes.

Opening the window, he smelled the fresh air coming from the city. An Ran said in a low voice, "Brother Chen, I hope you won't be angry with me …"

She did not dare to meet the woman who was betrothed to the Brother Chen. For some inexplicable reason, she began to feel inferior, feeling that she was an ugly duckling.

There was only one thing she could not do, but other women could. Brother Chen wanted to marry that person right now.

She felt inferior and was too timid to show up. She envied and hated herself for being so useless.

An Ran knew she was wrong, she had always been wrong. It was not because Su Luo Chen liked bad women, but because he was too dazzling, that all the women around him would do anything they could for him, and become bad women.

However, she thought he liked bad women and was trying hard to learn bad things and become the woman he liked.

However, she was wrong. Those 'bad' women would never leave any traces in his heart. As for her, because she had appeared in his life from the very beginning, she had been blessed by him to this day. Unfortunately, this kind of protection wasn't love.

"Brother Chen, you must be happy …" Only by doing this would he be able to face her splitting him in half. Usually, he would stay by his side while the other half would silently leave while bearing all the pain.

Turning on the phone, he checked the time and knew that it was already the second day of the engagement banquet.

An Ran was a little stunned. Her parents who were far away from home should also know about the news of Brother Chen's engagement, and they would definitely be worried about her staying here by herself, so they would bring her abroad as well.

However, she did not want to leave. Although she could not guard the Brother Chen every day, she would not lose her heart if she were to stay here.

A few days later, An Ran returned to Su Luo Chen's villa and took out the key to open the door skillfully. Then, her gaze stopped at two figures who were sitting on the living room's sofa.

His heart clenched. It was too late for him to escape.

"An Ran?" Su Luo Chen noticed her figure from the corner of his eyes. Before he even had the time to turn his head, he had already stood up from the sofa.

After calming her trembling hands, An Ran lowered her head and walked over, "I'm sorry … "Sorry to bother you guys, but I'll pack my stuff and leave right away." She ran up the stairs.

That woman's name is Qin Qi, An Ran had seen her at Su Luo Chen's company.

Inside the room, An Ran stuffed the clothes into the chest as fast as she could, her eyes were sore. Finally, it was this day, and she had finally lost her Brother Chen.

"An Ran, where have you been these past few days?" The familiar voice behind him was magnetic. It was still so gentle and pleasant to hear.
