Chapter 403: Chapter 401: I Won’t Let You Get Your Way_1

She couldn’t help but frown, worried that Su Ran might get into some argument with that person. After all, having been with him for a while, she still understood his temperament—he could be so damn unbearable at times!

Just as she was about to peer through the doorway to see what was happening, she suddenly heard Su Ran’s apologetic voice outside the door, "I’m sorry, ma’am... My wife is throwing a tantrum... and has locked me out..."

The woman, upon hearing his words, seemed to sympathize with him, and immediately said, "Women... they need to be coaxed... With you shouting like that, if it were me, I wouldn’t open up either..."

"Hehe, thank you... I’ll keep it down..."

Then Jian Manhui heard Su Ran softly knock twice on the door, lowering his voice in frustration, "Jian Manhui... open the door, I have something to say to you..."

Jian Manhui remained still standing by the door, entangled in whether or not to open it for him.

She had to admit that her heart fluttered upon hearing his knock, but the scene she had witnessed that day made her impulses to stay away from him irresistible.

She was already resistant to love, and if she were to be in a relationship, the man had to be devoted; of such love that could not be wholehearted, she would rather have none!

Su Ran waited in silence for a long time, still not perceiving even the slightest movement inside, and irritation erupted in his heart. When he had come up the stairs earlier, he had made sure to check her room—the light was on—so he was one hundred percent certain she was inside!

Yet after such a long wait, she still gave no response, which made him feel agitated once again...

He let out a heavy sigh and without another word, he raised his hand and began forcefully knocking on the door, louder than any of his previous attempts.

Jian Manhui’s train of thoughts was disrupted by the knocking, and in a rush, worried that a neighbor might come out to scold them again, she instinctively reached out and flung the door open—

Su Ran’s hand paused mid-air, his expression still angry from the knocking!

After a second’s pause, seeing that Jian Manhui had finally opened the door, he said nothing and stepped in, shut the door with the back of his hand, and embraced Jian Manhui tightly—

Before Jian Manhui could start to struggle, he leaned down and sealed her lips...

Jian Manhui was stunned by Su Ran’s series of actions; her wide eyes stared in disbelief at the handsome face so close to hers and the tingling sensation from their joined lips...

She felt her brain short-circuit in that moment, completely forgetting to resist—

It wasn’t until Su Ran’s hand started to wander that she was jolted awake—

She jerked her head away to avoid Su Ran’s frenzied kisses and in her panic, pushed him urgently, saying, "Su Ran! Stop it!"

Su Ran’s eyes were unfathomably deep as he tightened his grip, and Jian Manhui found herself securely trapped in his embrace—

"You like me! Why won’t you admit it? Your body is more honest than your heart!"

Jian Manhui felt the shock run through her like electricity, and she glared at Su Ran in anger!

"You bastard! If you lay one more hand on me, see if I don’t call the police!"

Upon hearing the words "call the police", a deeper shadow crossed Su Ran’s eyes, yet her words had also pricked him slightly!

"Quite the lawyer, with full justice and yet so cold and heartless—don’t you find that contradictory?"

As he spoke, that restless hand of his slipped under the hem of her clothes and then rested at the front of her body—

Jian Manhui’s body shook violently!

"See? I told you, you do like it—"

At this moment, Jian Manhui was overflowing with shame and anger. Never before, even in his most shameless moments, had this man treated her like he did today!

Today, he left her completely bewildered!

"Don’t do this... please?" She suddenly softened her voice, looking helplessly at the man holding her tightly.

In places she could not see, he could recklessly hold other women, and now he was incessantly entangling himself with her. What did he really want?

From the start, she knew she couldn’t understand him!

And as it turned out, she really didn’t!

"So what do you want?" Su Ran stared steadily at her.

Jian Manhui’s heart clenched painfully twice, then she smiled brightly, "Don’t come looking for me again..."

To not come looking for her again would allow her to return to her previously peaceful life, to stop being unable to control her own heart!

That feeling of being close yet distant, melancholic yet lost, she really disliked it...

And Su Ran’s anger, which had just dissipated, suddenly flared up again at her words!

Not to come looking for her again!

Good, very good!

He really didn’t know that this woman could also be so stubborn!

Just because she saw another woman sitting on his lap that day and then, without listening to a single explanation, decided to cut ties with him?

Was he really not worthy of her trust?

"Is this really what you think?" Su Ran narrowed his eyes and asked solemnly, looking at Jian Manhui with her head bowed.

Jian Manhui clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and nodded, "Yes!"

Su Ran roared, "Look into my eyes and tell me, is this really what you think?"

Jian Manhui’s heart twisted painfully. This man! He was truly cruel!

But--she really didn’t want to be entangled any longer. To her, love and marriage were indeed like a poison that ravaged her insides!

Then suddenly, she looked up, her eyes resolutely fixed on his, "Yes!"

With one word, the hope in Su Ran’s eyes shattered instantaneously. He could clearly feel that she liked him! Why? Why be so obstinate!

Jian Manhui saw the forlorn look in Su Ran’s eyes. She thought he would let her go, then gently turn around, leave this place, leave her...

But unexpectedly... after he was silent for a long time, she saw him suddenly curve his lips into a smile, "Jian Manhui... I won’t let you have your way..."

A flash of shock crossed Jian Manhui’s eyes; she even suspected that Su Ran had seen right through the true thoughts within her heart...

"The more you want to break up our relationship, the more entangled I will become with you..."

Jian Manhui’s eyes widened in bewilderment, not understanding what he meant!

But before she could contemplate it further, in the next moment, her body was suddenly lifted into the air...

She was shocked!

"Su Ran... what are you doing?"

Su Ran held her tightly in his arms, his face dark and unreadable--

"I want you--to be my woman!"

Jian Manhui was stunned for a second, and as she truly realized what he was saying, she suddenly began to struggle in his arms!

"No--I don’t want to!" Panic welled up endlessly inside her. She struggled, she resisted, she was afraid! She was afraid the floodgates would open and she could not close them again! From then on, she would lose herself!

"Whether you want to or not, you’ll know soon enough. I think your body is more honest than your mouth!" Su Ran said mercilessly, disregarding her struggles, and carried her toward the bedroom...
