Out of control and sinking

Hearing Jiang Ruan's sharp words, Su Wan's expression changed slightly, but she quickly looked blank again and said innocently, "Jiang Ruan, what do you mean by kidnapping you and almost killing you? What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Jiang Ruan's lips twitched. Looking at Su Wan's bewildered expression, she sneered inwardly. Truly worthy of being an award-winning actress.

He can act at any time.

Jiang Ruan stood up, walked to Su Wan, leaned close to her, and slowly said, "That man named Zhang Xiang has been arrested by the police, and he has confessed that you are the mastermind behind his kidnapping of me."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruan looked directly into Su Wan's eyes.

To be precise, it's about observing her emotional changes.

Sure enough, she saw fear in Su Wan's eyes.

A mocking smile played on Jiang Ruan's lips as she slowly said, "What do you think will happen to you if this gets out, hmm?"

Su Wan could no longer sit still.

Since that night, she has been unable to contact Zhang Xiang, and she has no idea how he is doing now.

"I don't know anything." Su Wan directly shifted all the blame onto Zhang Xiang, her face straightforward: "Jiang Ruan, I didn't mean to hurt you. I told my fans that they shouldn't do anything immoral. If they really do, the law will teach them a lesson."

Su Wan spoke with an air of righteous indignation.

"..."

Jiang Ruan was speechless. Su Wan continued, "I admit that I do hate you. Ever since you appeared, Bo Ye has never seen me again."

Su Wan said resentfully, "I'm not convinced. You have no family background, no education, you're just from a small place. Besides your pretty face, what do you have that can compare to me? Why does he like you so much and even let you move into the castle and live with him every day?"

As she spoke, Su Wan's eyes reddened, and she felt extremely aggrieved.

“We grew up together, we were childhood sweethearts, and my family is a scholarly family. He should be closer to me.”

Jiang Ruan really had no intention of comforting her; after all, she was her enemy.

She turned around and sat back on the sofa: "When it comes to feelings, there's never a first-come, first-served rule."

Su Wan listened and laughed: "Yes, high emotional intelligence doesn't discriminate based on who came first, but Jiang Ruan, do you really love Bo Ye?"

"Do you dare say that you weren't initially with Bo Ye for his money, his status, or his power?"

Su Wan's tone was threatening as she stared intently at Jiang Ruan.

These words truly struck a chord with Jiang Ruan, who remained unfazed: "So what if it is, so what if it isn't?"

"I knew you were just like those women," Su Wan said bitterly. "It's a pity that Bo Ye is blinded by you and can't see the ugliness in your heart."

"How could he possibly be interested in a woman like you?"

Jiang Ruan was speechless: "How my relationship with him is is between us. What does it have to do with you? You just need to know that Bo Ye and I like each other and love each other very much."

"If you have nothing else to do, you can leave now."

Jiang Ruan said, "I have nothing to say to you."

She tried to dismiss him with just a few words.

Su Wancai was not going to let her have her way. She snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "What's wrong? You're already angry because I've exposed your true colors?"

Jiang Ruan found it amusing: "You and Bo Ye grew up together, so shouldn't you be the one who knows him best?"

"You say you like him, you love him, but what have you done for him? Su Wan, from the day I met you, all you've seen is ambition. To climb up the social ladder, you've spared no expense. Do you really think no one in the world knows what you've done?"

Su Wan's expression changed slightly: "What do you mean by that?"

"It doesn't mean anything, I just wanted to say that if you walk on the shore long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. You can't hide the truth forever. If you do things against your conscience, you'll be punished," Jiang Ruan said.

Bo Ye told Su Wan about those things.

When Jiang Ruan heard this, her worldview was shattered.

In particular, Su Wan even went so far as to accompany...father and son in order to get a Best Actress nomination...

This is absolutely outrageous.

Jiang Ruan had always known that the entertainment industry was chaotic, with many deals and transactions happening one after another, but they were not out in the open.

Jiang Ruan did not have a deep understanding of Suzhou and Dongguan.

Unexpectedly, Bo Ye knew everything about her. Only then did Jiang Ruan realize the truth.

How could Bo Ye possibly be interested in a woman like that?

Jiang Ruan also misunderstood Bo Ye so many times because of Su Wan.

But it's also because she didn't know the truth.

Ultimately, it's all Bo Ye's fault.

If I had told her sooner, she wouldn't have overthought it.

She gave Bo Ye a stern look and scolded him.

Bo Ye reluctantly revealed his past with the Su family, which was Su Wan's dark history.

Because of the Su family's influence, Bo Ye couldn't bear to go too far.

I didn't tell her because I was afraid she might accidentally let it slip in the heat of the moment at a drinking party.

Su Wan gritted her teeth: "No matter what, I am your senior, Jiang Ruan. It is not your place to lecture me."

Jiang Ruan was too lazy to waste any more words with her; one's mindset cannot be changed.

And this has nothing to do with her.

"This is my home. If you have nothing else to do, please leave."

Su Wan raised her chin: "I'm not leaving. I'm going to wait here for Bo Ye to come back."

Jiang Ruan had already guessed that she would stubbornly refuse to leave, so she said, "Why wait for him to come back? To resume the cooperation between the Bo family and you?"

At this point, Su Wan became even angrier.

"If it weren't for you, why would Bo Ye have terminated our cooperation?"

“You’re right, I made him do it.” Jiang Ruan curled her lips, as if afraid of not angering her to death, and said with a smug look, “Bo Ye is my man. I was wronged and almost killed. Of course he would stand up for me when he found out.”

Su Wan: "You..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Ruan's eyes lit up, and she ran happily towards the distance in her slippers.

"Bo Ye, you're back!"

Upon hearing this, Su Wan turned her head sharply and saw Bo Ye walking in from outside.

He was dressed in a black suit and looked quite dignified.

Her expression remained icy.

Upon seeing Jiang Ruan, Bo Ye opened his arms and pulled her into his embrace, gently scolding her, "Don't run so fast, you're still injured."

Jiang Ruan listened, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart.

She stuck out her tongue: "Isn't it because I see you're happy?"

"Did you touch the wound?" Bo Ye asked with concern.

"No."

Seeing the two so affectionate and intimate, Su Wan's fingernails dug into her flesh.

I couldn't help but feel envious.

From childhood to adulthood, Bo Ye had always been cold and indifferent to her.

She had always thought that Bo Ye was cold by nature.

But when she saw him speaking to Jiang Ruan in a gentle voice, his eyes filled with undisguised concern, Su Wan was almost driven mad with jealousy.

After checking on Jiang Ruan, Bo Ye's gaze finally fell on the extra people in the living room.

His expression towards Su Wan was as cold and aloof as ever.

He coldly questioned, "What are you doing here?"
