Chapter 983: Chapter 1009: A Smart Person

Hearing the satisfaction in her voice, Jun Mochan didn’t want to discourage her. At that moment, his computer pinged; someone below had sent him the investigation results.

"Ranran, I need to get busy," Jun Mochan said with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"Then you go ahead, I’ve also arrived at the location."

Ye Ranran had almost arrived at the same time as Xia Qing.

As she got out of the car, Xia Qing also stepped out from her vehicle, a jeep, its model competing with her Land Rover, giving off a sense of standing on equal footing.

But Xia Qing had come alone, while three and four followed behind Ye Ranran, making her seem somewhat timid and apprehensive.

Xia Qing glanced at the people behind her and chuckled softly, "Mo Han really cares about you; is he afraid I’ll devour you?"

"He tends to overreact, always cautioning to be careful around unfamiliar people," Xia Qing said intentionally endearing, causing Ye Ranran to consciously distance herself.

"Let’s go, it’s rare for someone to ask me out for afternoon tea." Xia Qing seemed oblivious to the implications in Ye Ranran’s remarks, speaking with an enthusiasm as if previous displeasures had never occurred.

This is how mature people behave. When they cannot bow down or eliminate the other, they skillfully conceal their true thoughts.

Ye Ranran responded with grace, "Let’s go, it’s also rare for me to chat with someone."

The two found a seat by the window and ordered coffee.

"They..." Xia Qing glanced at the bodyguards behind Ye Ranran.

"Take a seat across, order whatever you like," Ye Ranran glanced at the position opposite her.

The two silently went over and sat down, ordering nothing, their eyes, although not blatantly, were always watching the other side.

The coffee arrived promptly, and Ye Ranran took a sip, "My mother was a bit agitated just now, please don’t take it to heart."

I will not; the predicament I find myself in today is of my own doing," Xia Qing said with a bitter smile.

Ye Ranran looked at her surprisingly.

"Looking at me that way, how? Can you not imagine me saying such things?" Xia Qing stirred her coffee.

"Indeed it’s surprising, I thought you’d tell me it was ’love’ and hope for my understanding," she mused. Isn’t that what homewreckers do?

They destroy someone’s family but still claim boldly they are pursuing love.

They are without fault; she’s just fallen for a married man.

But they don’t realize that love doesn’t mean disrupting others. Moreover, one’s love is one’s personal affair,

not something that justifies hurting others and then blaming it on love.

"You’re smart; actually, that’s what I intended to say, but I felt you wouldn’t want to hear it," Xia Qing said with a knowing look.

Ye Ranran thought that Jun Mochan was right, this woman was clever.

"You’re not bad either, given how our conversation has progressed, I think you can guess why I asked you out today." Talking to a smart person always saves effort, and Ye Ranran didn’t want to beat around the bush.

"Ranran, you’re so clever; then you must also know what I want," Xia Qing said, her eyes gleaming.

Ye Ranran smiled, three parts irony and seven parts mockery: "Are you aiming to become official?"

"I know you look down on me, but it’s just that we made different choices. You fell in love with a man who happened to love you back, but not everyone’s love story is as perfect as yours," Xia Qing said, envy evident in her tone.

"The man I fell in love with already had a family. I’ve thought about letting go, but I just can’t do it. You might not believe me when I say this, but I can give up everything. However, I cannot let my child suffer, and I hope you can understand a mother’s heart."
