Chapter 375: Chapter 373: Su Ran’s Personal Motto in Life_1
Su Wanxia and Mu Yingchen went to take wedding photos, and conveniently took Little Tuanzi with them, which allowed Su Ran an unprecedented amount of relief.
Once they left, he was free to chase after the one he had been longing for.
On the very day that Su Wanxia and others left, Su Ran blocked Jian Manhui’s way at the bottom of her apartment building.
Ever since the last time Jian Manhui had slapped him, he had not sought her out even once; previously, he’d have run to her three times a day.
He was someone who didn’t like to give up halfway—
Once he had decided to do something, he would persist until the end; once he had set his sights on someone, he would persist in marrying her!
This was the personal motto of Su Ran that he had summed up on his way over—
Jian Manhui had a client meeting today regarding a couple getting a divorce and a dispute over their assets.
Early in the morning, the wife had called her, saying she’d be waiting at a certain café, and then detailed the whole situation to her, asking her to be her defense lawyer.
The wife’s background was quite prominent in C City, or else she wouldn’t have been referred to Jian Manhui!
But just as she got downstairs, she saw that handsome man not far away, staring at her with a smile.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.
After all, she had felt somewhat guilty over slapping him last time, yet it was him who had behaved like a hooligan first, stealing her first kiss!
With that thought, her nervousness was replaced by irritation.
Ignoring the existence of Su Ran, she headed straight for her garage.
Su Ran couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, still angry about that day?
But hadn’t she already vented her anger that day?
"Manman..." he stepped forward, grabbing her arm.
"Mr. Su, I am not familiar with you..." Jian Manhui said with a stern face.
Su Ran chuckled, "It’s fine as long as I’m familiar with you..."
"What are you doing here again?" she frowned at him.
"I missed you, so I came here..." Su Ran blurted out before he could stop himself, and after he said it, even he could hardly believe it. When had he become so cheesy?
But his words made Jian Manhui’s heart tremble slightly.
Her hands involuntarily tightened; only by doing this could she restrain her nervousness and the sudden palpitations...
Falling for someone really is a matter of a moment!
Jian Manhui had already had a hint of clarity about her feelings for Su Ran after Su Wanxia’s pointers, but they were still fuzzy and unclear. She felt that she liked him, but she also felt that it was all in her mind.
However... Just now, when she heard him say he missed her, she couldn’t control her wildly beating heart. The feeling was unfamiliar and yet slightly recognizable.
It was the same feeling she had when he kissed her—that her heart was going to jump out of her chest, beating frighteningly fast!
Her grip grew tighter, her eyes staring at Su Ran’s smiling face as if he were an enemy.
Why did she have to fall for such an unfathomable man?
"I have other things to do..." she felt her heart was in chaos, and she needed some peace.
"I’ll take you there..." Su Ran held on to her arm, not letting go.
"There’s no need, I can drive myself..." Why do you need to take me? she grumbled inwardly.
For her, love and marriage had always been something to be avoided at all costs, and over the years, just like always, no man had managed to disturb her heart under her own determination.
But the man before her... had managed to squeeze himself in when she tried so hard to shake him off!
She felt as if she was poisoned, and the source of the poison was this man, so she had to stay away from the drug...
Yet Su Ran ignored her protesting words, grabbing her and stuffing her into his car.
Jian Manhui was angry and somewhat at a loss; she felt very uncomfortable in such a small space with him.
Why hadn’t she felt this way before? She wondered internally.
"Where to?" Su Ran turned his head and asked her.
She was silent for a while, then reluctantly looked up at him and heavily gave out an address.
The whole way there, they rode in silence. Su Ran was unusually quiet today, not pestering her with endless questions, which took Jian Manhui by surprise.
But now she would rather he didn’t speak to her at all, so she didn’t bother to ask, preferring to enjoy her peace.
Upon reaching their destination, Jian Manhui got out of the car without a word.
Su Ran shook his head, feeling helpless. It seemed a subtle change had occurred between them since the last time he kissed her.
He quickly parked the car and then followed her inside.
Once inside, Jian Manhui had the instinct that someone was following her. When she turned around, there was Su Ran, following her indifferently and fearlessly.
She frowned, "Why are you following me?"
"The place is so big, how can you be sure I’m following you?" Su Ran raised an eyebrow.
Jian Manhui huffed lightly and continued up to the second floor. Su Ran still followed; when she stopped, he stopped; when she walked, he walked.
Jian Manhui was becoming frantic, "Dare you say you’re not following me?"
Su Ran stood at the bottom of the stairs, looking straight at her, "There are so many rooms upstairs, I’ve got someone to meet too."
As Jian Manhui was going upstairs, she had already guessed he was following her, and he wouldn’t admit it?
Forget him!
With that thought, she turned around and continued upstairs. Reaching the second floor, she turned left, entered the second room without hesitating, and, after checking the room number, pushed the door and entered.
The moment she went in and closed the door, Su Ran squeezed in after her.
Jian Manhui was startled!
"Hehe, Attorney Jian?" A luxuriously dressed woman stood up from the soft seat.
Jian Manhui was about to lash out at Su Ran but was interrupted by this greeting.
"That’s me, you must be Mrs. Jiang, right?"
"Yes, that’s me. And may I ask who this is...?" Mrs. Jiang’s gaze fell on Su Ran standing next to Jian Manhui and she asked with astonishment.
She truly hadn’t expected to see such a handsome man here!
"He’s my assistant..." Jian Manhui saw Su Ran open his mouth to speak and quickly cut in before him.
"Oh... hehe, the young man is quite handsome..." Mrs. Jiang’s eyes lingered on Su Ran.
"Hehe, passable..." Jian Manhui was almost gnashing her teeth.
Seeing Mrs. Jiang’s look, she worried Mrs. Jiang might be smitten with that guy. What a misfortune! Even Mrs. Jiang, well into her forties, was tempted by him!
"Oh, please, have a seat..." Only then did Mrs. Jiang remember her manners, hurriedly inviting them to sit down.
Jian Manhui and Mrs. Jiang sat opposite each other, while Su Ran sat next to Jian Manhui.
Jian Manhui saw Mrs. Jiang’s gaze constantly on Su Ran beside her, and a frown formed between her brows.
"Mrs. Jiang... What’s the situation here?"
"Oh hehe, it’s like this..." Mrs. Jiang immediately shifted her gaze from Su Ran and began telling Jian Manhui about her own entanglements with an exceedingly indignant expression.
