Daily life of working as a substitute bride for a wealthy family

Chapter 162 Mistakes Every Woman in the World Makes

The lights outside the window are bright, and the bustling city is a city that never sleeps.

Draw the curtains.

Xiang Ran and Xia Yun squeezed into one bed.

Started chatting.

"Your father is still good to you. At least he bought you this high-end apartment in full, and it's a two-bedroom apartment." Xiang Ran said.

"Tsk, it's because my mom had the foresight to force him, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to pay the money. He has both a son and a daughter, so my mom asked me to ask him for money as soon as I graduate, in case his children grow up and money becomes even tighter, it would be even more difficult to ask him to pay the money." Xia Yun said disapprovingly.

"What kind of business is your father in? He paid for this house outright, so even a few years ago it must have cost him a lot of money, right?"

"I used to make a lot of money from building renovations and office leasing, but now it's not as profitable," Xia Yun said. "But the little money I make from the educational institution is enough for me to eat and drink. Even if I work for decades, I still can't afford to buy a house."

"You don't count on the salary from an educational institution, do you? Your mother still gives you money."

Xia Yun nodded seriously. "I've been relying on my parents for everything since I graduated. It was their fault for getting a divorce back then. They even said they owed me."

"By the way, have your father and Mo Shaohua known each other for many years?" Xiang Ran asked with a smile.

"Did Mo Shaohua tell you that?"

"correct."

"My dad rented Mo Shaohua's previous office." Xia Yun took her arm. "By the way, Mo Shaohua helped a lot in escorting Princess Sheng back this time. Can you recommend some business for him after you return to the palace?"

Xiang Ran quickly pushed her hand away: "What nonsense are you talking about? I can't even hide from Sheng."

"Boss Sheng turned Country Z upside down. Someone even posted online that they saw him on the shore getting rained on all night, and you'd rather hide under the water house and make yourself look miserable." Xia Yun poked Ran with her finger, "You have such a cruel heart!"

"Let me ask you this: if your boat was surrounded and blocked by assault boats and lost power, and someone was firing on the shore, would you just sit there and wait for death, or would you consider hiding?"

"Oh my god, it's really that scary, but I still think he won't really do anything to you! Do you believe it?"

"Believe! But can our relationship go back to the way it was before? Will he still trust me like before?

Once trust is destroyed, it is the hardest to rebuild. He once trusted me so much, but what was the result?

I guess he will be sad for a long time.

I have discussed this issue with him before. The people who can really hurt a person are often the ones closest to them.

So - if he can't find me, maybe he still has some concern for me, but after he finds me... maybe all he will be left with is endless accusations and complaints.

And when faced with these complaints, I won’t even be able to make a single excuse because—I owed him in the first place.”

After hearing this, Xia Yun remained silent.

Because everything Xiang Ran said was right.

If you put yourself in her shoes, you will realize that even someone like her cannot help but feel resentful.

What’s more, he is a rich young man like Sheng Yang?

After being fooled and cheated, he must have been furious. He might have really had the urge to rush to Country Z and strangle Xiang Ran to death.

Otherwise, the local private armed forces in Country Z would not have been alarmed.

After all, they are armed with live ammunition, so there is a chance of accidental discharge.

Thinking of this, she began to understand Xiang Ran's choice.

I only heard Xiang Ran say quietly: "Actually, if he thought I was dead, that would be good. Now I'll be nothing but Bai Yueguang."

"What? You've faked your own death before?" Xia Yun asked curiously. "You really used all the popular memes in this substitutionary marriage story."

"It can't be said that he faked his death." Xiang Ran thought for a moment and said, "I just took the opportunity to return the bracelet to its original owner."

Xia Yun asked her, "But... did you see the video that went viral? Madam Su actually said on the show that her daughter's surname was Liu and her original name was Xiang Ran. I don't believe this was Madam Su's own video. I think it was your man's doing. Xiang Ran, I think he's waiting for you to come back."

"Maybe. He has always been a man of means. He is good at both literature and martial arts, and he is also very smart.

In fact, I was not sure that Miss Su and the others could deceive him.

I just thought he might consider his own interests and slowly resolve the issue. Whether he accepts it or not, he can handle it well. But now it seems that he has acted so fiercely, which I didn't expect."

Xiang Ran's eyes sparkled. "Needless to say, the video of the search for relatives must have been recorded by the Su family afterwards. But what on earth did he do to deserve such obedience?"

"That's something you'd have to ask your man," Xia Yun sighed. "Ah, smart men are good, but don't they tend to be more dominant when you're around them?"

"You wouldn't believe it even if I told you, but when I was with him, I had a slight advantage." Xiang Ran said with a smile.

Xia Yun tilted her head and asked, "Huh? But on camera, he looks so serious."

"Well, he's usually cold outside, but at home... he's actually pretty easygoing. Sometimes he can be a bit irritable, but he's not unreasonable, but he's not the kind of guy who's completely devoid of personality."

Thinking of this, Xiang Ran's lips curled up again. "Ah, during that time, I lived in a house with a swimming pool and a garden. My house was surrounded by flowers, servants were everywhere, and there was a handsome man who was always around me. It was like a dream."

Xiang Ran held Xia Yun's arm and said, "Actually, for a poor girl who just graduated, do you know what the biggest temptation is?"

"Is it money?" Xia Yun asked.

Xiang Ran shook her head: "It's money + love, and it's the kind of love that comes from true feelings. You can feel the other person's sincerity, so you can't refuse it at all."

"This is something that no woman can refuse, okay - Xiang Ran, you just made a mistake that every woman in the world would make." Xia Yun couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, I was wrong first, but I don't actually ask him to forgive me, and begging won't earn me forgiveness.

It will only bring contempt.

Even if he reluctantly accepted me, I would definitely be at a disadvantage in getting along with him after I returned to him.

Yes, I am poor, come from a poor family, and feel a little sorry for him, but I still don’t want to be the one who licks the boots in a relationship or marriage.

No matter what happened in the past, no matter how powerful the man was, I was unwilling to bow my head too much.

So I am not a particularly docile person.

In addition, there are so many misunderstandings, gaps, estrangements, and right and wrong between him and me. Even if he can not mind, what will his family think of me?

Well, actually he is the kind of person who has a very clear distinction between love and hate, it is impossible for him not to mind.

Over time, love fades.

Compared to the fact that he no longer loves me,

I would rather he hate me and miss me.

Because of "love" - it can convince me not to regret going through all this.

If I lose the annotation of "love and be loved", I find it difficult to look directly at what I am doing."

As Xiang Ran spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

Women are more empathetic.

Xia Yun also felt involved in the story.

My heart is sour.

She thought of "lies".

Even children know not to lie.
