Chapter 33: Venting (Part 1)

After returning, Shi Ran still felt that everything that had just happened was too crazy.

She actually let Lu Beiyan, that lecherous pervert, have his way with her.

•  

The next day, early in the morning, Afei came to pick them up and take them to the hospital for Grandma’s checkup.

While Grandma was undergoing examination, she received a call from someone claiming to be Lu Beiyan’s mother, wanting to have a chat with her.

Dessert Restaurant.

Shi Ran sat in the booth, opposite a gracefully well-maintained middle-aged woman, beside whom sat a beautiful young woman.

The middle-aged woman was wearing a jade green cheongsam, with a graceful figure and a serious expression.

She slowly picked up her cup, took a sip, and lifted her gaze to casually look at Shi Ran.

“Shi Ran?”

Shi Ran could feel the other party’s disdain, so her expression wasn’t very good, but she still maintained the politeness she should have towards her elders.

“Yes.”

Zhao Qingzhi took out a black card from her bag, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards Shi Ran.

“Here’s five million. Please leave my son and don’t bother him.”

Shi Ran: “…”

This cliché plot actually happened to her, it was like a pie from heaven.

She was so excited for a moment that her expression was dazed.

Zhao Qingzhi thought she disagreed and exchanged a smile with the young woman beside her.

She pretended to raise her head and put her arm around the young woman beside her: “See? This is the kind of daughter-in-law my Lu family wants.”

After realizing what was going on, Shi Ran didn’t hesitate at all. She picked up the card on the table, clasped her hands together, and although her heart was overjoyed, she didn’t show it on her face.

“Although I’m very reluctant to leave Ayan, I also know that families like the Lu family value family background the most. Auntie, don’t worry, I won’t cling to him. I’ll take this card, thank you for your kindness.”

She held the card tightly in her hand, glanced at the young woman sitting opposite her, who seemed very shocked, her mouth open like an egg.

But she’s indeed a beauty.

Five million!

Let’s say a few more nice words, otherwise, I won’t feel at ease taking it.

“Indeed, compared to me, this young lady is more suitable for Mr. Lu. Looking closely, this young lady and Mr. Lu look a little alike, maybe this is what people call a couple’s look.”

As if afraid they would change their minds, Shi Ran picked up her bag and was about to leave. This five million is indeed insignificant to the Lu family, but if she had five million, she could use the best medicine and receive the best treatment for her grandmother, and she wouldn’t have to be at Lu Beiyan’s beck and call anymore.

Shorting Shi’s to win back the company also needs funds to support it.

Such a good deal, she wouldn’t miscalculate it.

Just consider it compensation for sleeping with Lu Beiyan for so long.

Unfortunately, as soon as she turned her head, she ran into Lu Beiyan, who was standing nearby with a dark face.

His face was clouded with gloom, staring at the middle-aged woman, his face as black as if ink could drip from it.

“This is the surprise you said you’d give me?”

Zhao Qingzhi also knew that things had gone too far and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

“Brother, this…” Lu Beixue beside her was also too embarrassed to say anything.

Originally, their plan was to give the brother’s girlfriend money to make her leave, just like in TV dramas.

Usually, the female lead wouldn’t agree and would slap the card back in their faces.

To express her unwavering devotion to the male lead.

Then, the brother could see his girlfriend’s unwavering devotion to him.

Who knew that his brother’s girlfriend was so unconventional and agreed without saying a word.

Their intention was not to break them up at all.

On the one hand, they thought it was fun, and on the other hand, they wanted their brother to feel this kind of being cared for.

It turned out to be a mess.

Shi Ran heard the word “brother” and was full of doubts.

“Sister-in-law must be afraid that we will continue to make things difficult for her, so she didn’t struggle and took the card first. Then she will give it to you, brother. She definitely doesn’t want to take the card and leave.”

Lu Beixue racked her brains and came up with such an absurd reason.

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzhi, who hadn’t dared to speak, quickly echoed: “Yes, yes, Ranran is so smart, she must have thought so.”

Seeing the extremely awkward atmosphere, Lu Beixue stepped forward, put her arm around Shi Ran’s arm and explained.

“Sister-in-law, we were just joking. I’ve never tried acting so well, but your acting is even better than ours. You must have pretended to agree, but you don’t actually want to take the money and leave, right?”

In a place where Lu Beiyan couldn’t see, she clasped her hands together, her pleading eyes were particularly obvious.

Shi Ran was still clutching the five million card in her hand, and after this commotion, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to ask for the PIN.

This was the first time she had encountered such a thing, and she was careless.

After this explanation, she understood what happened today, a complete farce.

Now, even if she really wanted to take the money and leave, she couldn’t.

She could only go with the flow.

“Yes, of course. If I wanted to take the five million and leave, why wouldn’t I have asked for the PIN?”

As soon as she said this, Lu Beixue and Zhao Qingzhi’s eyes lit up.

Saved!

The two turned to look at Lu Beiyan.

Shi Ran lowered her voice and asked the young girl who was holding her arm: “Are you all so afraid of him?”

The young girl nodded vigorously, then shook her head.

“Brother has suffered a lot.” Her eyes were full of heartache.

Lu Beiyan reached out and pulled Shi Ran over, looking at them as if looking at strangers.

“Don’t come looking for her, and don’t come looking for me anymore.”

He took the black card from Shi Ran’s hand and placed it on the table, then took Shi Ran’s hand and walked out.

“Ayan!” Zhao Qingzhi called out from behind.

But Lu Beiyan didn’t stop, pulling Shi Ran into the car, and the car sped away.

“Drive slower.” Shi Ran held the car’s handrail tightly, and Lu Beiyan on the side had his hands clasped on the steering wheel, his sleeves rolled up, revealing sharp lines.

Lu Beiyan didn’t pay attention to Shi Ran’s request. Now he was like a murderous Tibetan Mastiff, speeding like he was chasing someone down.

The car drove all the way to the Xishan villa.

Along the way, Shi Ran held the handrail tightly, not daring to say much, afraid of offending him with a wrong word.

After all, he was still driving.

Only when they arrived here did Shi Ran unfasten her seatbelt. The whole journey was really thrilling, afraid that he would be unhappy and drive the car into some ditch.

“I still have to go to the hospital…” Before she finished speaking, Lu Beiyan got out of the car.

Then, he opened his car door, pulled himself out of the car, and carried her horizontally.

Shi Ran exclaimed.

“Put me down! I still have to go to the hospital to see Grandma, what are you doing? Just let Afei take me, I’m not going back first.”

Before she finished speaking, Lu Beiyan had already carried her into the villa.

He went straight upstairs, kicked open the door, and threw her on the bed.

Only then did Shi Ran realize why he had been like a vengeful Tibetan Mastiff all the way.

It turned out that the enemy was her.

Lu Beiyan pulled off his tie and tied her hands.

“Lu Beiyan, what are you doing? I don’t agree.”

No matter how she struggled, Lu Beiyan just had a cold face, without saying a word.

Even the kiss wasn’t as gentle and coaxing as before, but almost brutal, his palm felt like it was on fire.

He tore at her clothes, making Shi Ran feel that he was really angry.
