99: Chapter 99 Breaking Up with Su Lan (3)

Sunlight, like a waterfall, poured into the room through the flawless glass window.

In one corner of the room, a potted green plant appeared exceptionally vibrant under the sun's rays.

“Sister Su Lan, are you feeling better?”

The room was so bright.

Yet, this girl, who could be used to embrace a golden brick, was immersed in her own dim world.

“Sister Su Lan?”

“Sister Su Lan?”

“Mhm~~”

Under Xiao Ran's continuous calls, Su Lan finally came back to her senses.

She looked up, saw the familiar face, and said softly:

“Xiao...Xiao Ran, little brother...”

Xiao Ran looked at her disheveled and dejected appearance, feeling a pang of pity.

Her clothes were in disarray, her hair was a mess.

Snot ran down her face, which was pale and haggard.

She looked as if she had been utterly ravaged.

Ugh~

Indeed, she had been ravaged by him, mentally.

To be honest, his excuse for breaking up this time was a bit flimsy.

He had aimed for indifference, but he hadn't expected Su Lan to fill in so many blanks for him.

Originally, he had further plans, but it seemed they were no longer needed.

He feared that if he continued to 'cast spells,' Su Lan might just completely break down!

If she developed psychological problems, that would be troublesome!

“Sister Su Lan, it’s good that you’re fine.”

Xiao Ran gently helped her tidy her clothes, his expression soft.

Follow-up work was also very necessary.

Of course, this was only for normal women like Su Lan.

As for those 'jiao' types, he wouldn't even have time to run away from them!

“Xiao Ran Di...”

The young man's tenderness seemed to be a shackles that she, a President, couldn't escape or avoid.

But she realized that she was no longer worthy.

Xiao Ran naturally understood what she was thinking, so he smiled understandingly and said:

“It’s alright, Sister Su Lan, just call me as you always have.”

A bitter feeling welled up in Su Lan’s heart.

They had already broken up, could things still be as they were before?

Even if he didn't care, she herself couldn't ignore that hurdle he had created.

“Xiao Ran, I’m sorry!”

She had already figured things out, but she didn't want to give up this relationship just like that.

If there was a chance to salvage it, she would desperately seize that glimmer of hope!

“Xiao Ran...Didi, if...if Sister is willing to change, would you still be willing...to continue dating Sister?”

Su Lan's breathing gradually quickened, and her face flushed crimson.

She wasn't sure if it was the lingering effects of crying or the shyness brought on by her confession.

She looked at the young man with a hopeful expression.

She hoped he would nod.

However.

The ideal was full, but reality was cruel.

Xiao Ran shook his head without hesitation:

“I’m sorry, Sister Su Lan, let’s...just leave it at that.”

Su Lan didn't get the answer she wanted, and reality once again dealt her a heavy blow.

“Mhm! Sister understands.”

Su Lan's face was ashen, and she forced a faint smile to her lips.

Was she truly unable to win him back?

Then!

Let's break up... but her heart truly ached so much.

He was really heartless!

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining two months of lifespan and 500 million in cash!】

(Image was eaten)

Xiao Ran felt a slight sense of calm when he heard the system's prompt.

Su Lan had finally agreed to the breakup.

However, this reward was indeed a bit meager.

It seemed that the quality of his relationship with Su Lan was indeed incredibly poor.

It was only supported by her wealth and looks that he barely received a two-month lifespan reward.

As for the 500 million, it was purely a return on investment; at least his efforts weren't wasted.

“Xiao Ran, little brother, thank you.” Su Lan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, forcing a smile.

She looked even worse smiling than she did crying!

“Sister Su Lan, I was the one who broke up, why are you thanking me?”

As Xiao Ran spoke, he pulled out a tissue from his pocket and gently wiped away her tears.

The crying President had a peculiar, contrasting beauty.

Quite charming.

Su Lan leaned her face close to Xiao Ran's.

She squinted, savoring this last moment of warmth.

Such treatment might never be enjoyed again in the future.

“Xiao Ran! Thank you for teaching me so much!”

Xiao Ran scratched his head, a bit embarrassed.

Isn't this the typical case of someone being sold and still helping the human trafficker count money?

But indeed, after being sold, her experience bar had also increased a lot.

At the very least, she had recognized her shortcomings in life.

“Sister Su Lan, I just hope you don’t blame me.”

“Xiao Ran, little brother, Sister will never blame you! In the future, Sister will compensate you well!”

Su Lan's eyes shimmered with autumn hues, and she spoke with genuine emotion.

This relationship, in the end, was her mistake.

What right did she have to blame him?

“Sister Su Lan, don’t worry, we will always be friends in the future!”

“Are we really just friends?”

Su Lan's watery eyes stared at him, her meaning self-evident.

She was practically saying she hadn't given up yet.

“Mhm mhm! Good friends, for life!” Xiao Ran nodded.

“For a lifetime?”

“Ahem, Sister Su Lan, retract your bold thoughts! I can hear your abacus clicking all the way from the moon!”

“Hmph! You bad Didi! When you’re in a good mood, it’s Sister Su Lan! When you’re not, it’s President Su, right?”

“Just now, when you broke up with me, you were so cold! My heart was shattered! So, so cold!”

Su Lan suddenly clutched her chest, crying uncontrollably.

Her tears didn't seem fake.

“Sister Su Lan, I was also forced to.” Xiao Ran ignored her directly and shrugged.

“Mhm, Xiao Ran, little brother, if one day you want to come back to Sister, Sister will always welcome you!”

Su Lan slowly stood up and leaned her face close to his.

They were practically touching.

“Xiao Ran, little brother, rest assured! Sister, this lifetime! Whether in spirit or in body! Will always belong only to you!”

“If you ever want me! Send Sister a message! Sister will arrange everything!”

After saying these words, she gently lifted her black silk-clad foot... It was very smooth, very soft, very gentle.

That man-eating temptress seemed to have been released again!

Xiao Ran: “...”
