Never has a woman dared to be so presumptuous in front of him
One week later.
In a quiet afternoon, Qu Ranran was sitting under a sun umbrella in the villa garden, flipping through a parenting book.
Not far away, two servants pushed Yu An to bask in the sun on the lawn, and Yu An's happy giggles could be heard from time to time.
The cell phone ringtone broke the silence.
Qu Ranran raised his eyes from the book and took the phone over.
Suddenly, I pressed the answer button, "Sister."
"Ran Ran, how have you been lately?"
"I'm doing everything as usual, but I haven't seen Ji Lingtian very often recently. I'm afraid that he will come to harass you again. Although you have Guan Hao next to you, I'm still a little worried..."
"He didn't come to my place... He didn't have time to go home, maybe because he was busy with the Wangcheng project." Qu Ranran answered truthfully. She knew that her sister actually cared about Ji Lingtian, but she was just stubborn and unwilling to bear the feelings she still had for Ji Lingtian.
That feeling.
"Well, I don't care if he comes back or not, as long as he doesn't bother you... By the way, how is the progress between you and Guan Hao?"
"Progress?" Qu Ranran paused for a moment and replied calmly, "There will be no progress between me and him."
Qin Zixin was shocked and asked, "What happened?"
Qu Ranran looked into the distance, "Sister, I don't want to say it."
Hearing the sadness behind Qu Ranran's words, Qin Zixin asked worriedly, "Ranran, did you and Guan Hao quarrel because of Qiao Si?"
Qu Ranran was silent.
Qin Zixin said quietly, "It seems that there is a rumor in the newspaper that Qiao Si's pregnancy is true..."
There is no airtight wall in the world. Even if this matter has not been made public now, it will be made public later.
Qu Ranran replied calmly, "Yes."
"Is this confirmed?"
"Um."
At this moment, Qin Zixin's tone turned serious and sincere, "I know women are concerned about this matter, but now that it has happened, if you still want to follow Guan Hao, then you must force yourself to swallow this...
Thorn, I believe that if Guan Hao really cares about you, he will definitely handle this matter!"
deal with?
Who would know that he personally went to the hospital to ask Qiao Si to keep the child.
However, she no longer needs to worry about this issue.
"Sister, you don't have to worry about me. I've always known what I'm doing and will handle matters between me and Guan Hao rationally."
"Well, if anything happens, just call me."
"good."
…
Qu Ranran had just put down her cell phone when an older maid came to her.
The servant said respectfully, "Miss Qu, Mr. Guan just called and said he would come to pick you up for dinner in the afternoon."
Qu Ranran nodded slightly, "I understand."
The servant immediately left.
Qu Ranran didn't take this matter to heart, and her eyes continued to fall on the book at hand.
------------------------------------------------
In the afternoon, Guan Hao came back earlier than usual...
The servant saw Guan Hao and greeted him, "Mr. Guan."
Guan Hao handed the car keys and other items to the servant and asked, "Where is Ran Ran?"
"Miss Qu is upstairs."
Guan Hao then walked to the second floor.
Not finding her in the room, he immediately went into the nursery.
Sure enough, she was sitting next to the crib, quietly looking at Yu An who was sleeping soundly.
Guan Hao walked over and said, "Didn't the servant tell you that I would pick you up in the afternoon?"
Suddenly hearing Guan Hao's voice, Qu Ranran's body didn't react at all, and his eyes still stayed on the child's face, as if he hadn't come back or heard his voice.
Guan Hao gently pulled up Qu Ranran, put his arm around her waist, and said softly, "Brother and Renjun have come to New York, and this time they have my sister-in-law. They all want to meet you. You change your clothes, and we will have a meal with them."
.”
Even though she was facing Guan Hao, Qu Ranran still didn't look at Guan Hao's face. She was as indifferent as she had been for the past week, showing no reaction to him.
Guan Hao saw Qu Ranran's reaction in his eyes, but he didn't get angry at all. He was always patient, "Ranran, it's rare for my eldest brother and sister-in-law to come to New York. I want to introduce you to them."
Qu Ranran was completely indifferent.
Guan Hao has never been a patient person, but against Qu Ranran, Guan Hao almost used all his calmness and self-control...
At this second, facing Qu Ranran's indifference once again, Guan Hao's dark eyes finally became a bit sharp.
Suddenly, he raised Qu Ranran's chin and forced her to look at him. His tone was twisted and gentle, "It's been more than a week. How long are you going to treat me as a transparent person?"
Qu Ranran neither responded nor resisted, and was not afraid of the change in Guan Hao's eyes at all.
Guan Haoning's eyes gradually became unfathomable as he stared at Qu Ranran. The danger and terror emanated from his eyes. The cold breath all over his body also solidified the surrounding air, causing the temperature in the baby room to instantly rise.
down to freezing point.
Suddenly, Guan Hao clenched Qu Ranran's jaw, gritted his teeth and said, "Qu Ranran, don't bully others too much!!"
Although the force used by Guan Hao was unbearable, it still caused Qu Ranran to feel unbearable pain. However, facing such pain, she just gritted her teeth tightly and remained silent.
Guan Hao quickly let go of Qu Ranran, looked at her chin that was already blue and purple, and said in a cold voice, "You can continue to waste time with me, but I told you, we have a lifetime to waste away slowly!!
"
After leaving these words, Guan Hao turned around and left angrily.
After Guan Hao left, Qu Ranran had forgotten the pain in her jaw. She sat down quietly, her whole body falling into a sluggish state.
…
Guan Hao drove all the way, and finally, not knowing where the car was going, he parked the car on the side of the road.
It was already dark, and it was already past the rush hour for get off work. There were no cars or street lights on the road. Only the dots of city nightlight in the distance shone through, faintly reflecting his air-conditioned handsome features.
At this time, his cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone, looked at it, and pressed the answer button. Before the other party could speak, he said coldly, "The party is cancelled!"
Before Li Renjun over there could figure out the situation, a beeping sound could be heard in his ears.
Guan Hao threw his cell phone to the seat, and then punched the glass window of the car.
The glass window shattered...
The broken glass shards not only fell outside, but also fell on the chairs, making the carriage look like a mess.
The back of Guan Hao's hand was bleeding due to being scratched by the glass fragments, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, letting the blood hit the seat drop by drop from the back of Antai's hand...
Qu Ranran, what should he do with her?
There has never been a woman in his life who could be so presumptuous in front of him, and she provoked him again and again...
Did she really think he would pamper her to the point of being lawless?
Damn...
Guan Hao kept cursing in his heart, and the anger gathered in his chest was the limit of endurance that had never been challenged in more than thirty years...
However, when such overwhelming anger conflicts with the deepest desire in his heart, desire ultimately defeats anger.
There was never anything he wanted to keep as his own, except her...
For her sake, I suppressed my hatred, confronted my mother who had never broken her promise, and made a promise to her to give up "Haotian" for the rest of my life and spend the rest of my life with her...
His efforts could not get her even the slightest bit of gentle response...
When he hugged her every night, he wished he could get the same tender hug from her as before, but there was nothing, only her as cold as a dead person's body, unresponsive.
Why is she so stubborn?
Regarding Qiao Si, he had already told her to give him some time... Is it so difficult to believe that he would do this just once?
If what she cares about is that he has hurt her by not having sincere feelings in the past, he can make up for her little by little for the mistakes he made in the past, but why does she give him every chance?
Could it be that she was really determined to treat him as nothing?
No, she can't even think about it!!
From the moment they met, they were destined to be entangled for a lifetime...
-------------------------------------------------
After having a child, Qu Ranran has become accustomed to going to bed early...
After dinner and coaxing Yu An to sleep, she carried her pajamas into the bathroom...
However, she never would have imagined that when she came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, her eyes that she inadvertently raised met those deep eyes without warning.
His cold and arrogant body stood three meters away from her. Without the frightening coldness when he left, he was staring at her quietly now.
Qu Ranran retracted her gaze that inadvertently met Guan Hao's eyes, and stepped forward.
Regardless of Guan Hao blocking her way, she brushed past him and wanted to leave the room.
However, the moment she passed by him, he reached out and suddenly pulled her hand. "Are you going to sleep next door again?" he asked coldly.
Qu Ranran stood there helplessly and did not answer.
She didn't need to answer, but he knew that she was going to the baby room next door to sleep with Yu An...
In fact, there are two servants taking turns guarding Yu An, so she doesn't need to stay with Yu An at night. However, for this week, she has been spending the night in the baby's room.
He let her go because he didn't want to force her to be too hasty, because he knew that she was stubborn and couldn't do anything too hastily, otherwise everything would be reversed... However, tonight, he could no longer let her alienate him like this, he was afraid that gradually
If they become alienated, they will become farther and farther apart.
He pulled her to the edge of the bed, and suddenly he sat her on his lap.
He kissed the back of her slender neck lovingly, and said softly, "I want to say 'sorry' to you for what happened just now. It's because I didn't control my emotions well."
What Guan Hao apologized for was Qu Ranran's silence.
"Does it still hurt?"
Touching her chin, which was faintly purple, his voice became gentler.
Qu Ranran's face was cold and she had no reaction at all.
Guan Hao spoke slowly, "Ranran, if you haven't talked to me, I think it's necessary for you to spend more time getting along with me..."
"I'll have Yu An brought to my mother so that we can have plenty of time to talk about our affairs."
Qu Ranran's hateful eyes looked at Guan Hao. He was clearly using Yu An to threaten her...
Seeing Qu Ranran's gaze, Guan Hao raised a faint smile on his lips, "I thought you would never look at me again in this life!"
"Would you only use such despicable means to threaten me?"
"This may seem despicable in your eyes, but this is the only way I can force you to talk to me."
"You can keep my people, but you can never keep my heart."
Guan Hao curled his lips and smiled, "Your heart? Have you forgotten that your heart already belongs to me?"
Qu Ranran sneered and spat out, "Guan Hao, I don't understand why a cold-blooded and ruthless person like you who cares about human life can still pretend to be affectionate in front of me?"
Cold-blooded and ruthless, looking down on human life?
Guan Hao frowned because of the eight words Qu Ranran deliberately emphasized.
"In the past, I was really blind to fall in love with someone like you..."
Guan Hao calmly spoke out with his strong self-control and endurance, "Qu Ranran, you should speak more clearly."
Qu Ranran stood up from Guan Hao's lap, looked at Guan Hao's handsome face exuding chills, and said word by word, "I always thought that my father committed suicide because he wanted to atone for his sins, but as early as
Seven years ago, you gave my father a cemetery, and you cruelly used me as a threat to force him to commit suicide... Guan Hao, in these years, have you ever been unable to sleep at night because of uneasy conscience?
"
Guan Hao's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Who told you this!"
"It doesn't matter who told me, what's important is...I finally recognized you, you murderer..." At this point, Qu Ranran lost control of her emotions and sobbed out, "Daddy did something wrong, he
He could accept the sanction of the law, so why did you force him to end his life so cruelly? Do you know that daddy is the most important person in my life..."
"Is this why you've been alienated from me these days?"
Looking at Guan Hao's bottomless black eyes, Qu Ranran backed away slowly in fear, and murmured, "I was too stupid to have doubted my father's suicide... Guan Hao
, looking at me being played around by you like this, you must be very proud of me these years, right?"
What she said was so ironic that it shot through his heart like a sharp arrow.
Pain spread in his heart...
The unprecedented loss corroded his heart that beat for her.
Facing her question, he didn't answer for a long time. When she thought he had no way to defend himself, he finally said calmly, "You always convict me without listening to my excuse. Qu Ranran, do you want to follow me?"
As time goes by, are you really no longer the simple, kind-hearted and devoid of darkness Qu Ranran that I knew at the beginning?"
After hearing what Guan Hao said, Qu Ranran was slightly startled.
Guan Hao seemed disappointed, turned around, and left the room again.

"Haotian" Group.
Early in the morning, Zou Ji came to the president's office.
Standing in front of his desk and looking at his boss, Zou Ji's whole body movements showed a sense of caution, because he knew that his boss was not in a good mood today.
Chen Lin, who was standing aside, was reporting her official schedule to Guan Hao.
Zou Ji didn't wait until he saw Chen Lin and Guan Hao finishing their report. This time he spoke slowly, "Boss."
Guan Hao waved his hand to signal Chen Lin to step back.
After Chen Lin left, Zou Ji spat out with fear, "Boss, it was my mistake that allowed Miss Qu's mailbox to be hacked by someone... I have found out that the anonymous person who hacked into Miss Qu's mailbox had his own firewall.
The defense system I set up for Miss Qu before was unable to intercept the emails this person sent to Miss Qu."
Guan Hao sat behind his desk, looked at Zou Ji leisurely, and asked, "Has the email been cracked?"
Zou Ji nodded, "It has been cracked... The email was sent to Miss Qu by a person named 'Kangnaixin'. I have sent the content of the email to your mobile phone."
Guan Hao picked up the mobile phone placed on the table.
Surprisingly, there was no text in the email, only a recording attached.
Guan Hao pressed the button on his phone and the recording started playing...
"Guan Hao, I beg you to let Ran Ran go. She is innocent. If you have any anger or resentment, come to me... As long as you let Ran Ran go, I can promise you anything."
This is obviously Qu Yaoting's voice.
"It's okay if I let your daughter go. As long as you pay for my father's death with one life, I will consider letting your daughter go... But I must remind you that I don't have much patience. If you don't die early, I'm afraid you will suffer."
