The system makes me so beautiful that I don't care about anyone else's life or death.

Soon, Tang's father and mother arrived, and they were both stunned when they saw Su Ran.

They had never seen such a beautiful girl before, and their expressions couldn't help but show a hint of amazement.

But upon seeing who Su Ran was holding in her arms, her initial amazement immediately turned into anger.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass on private property!" Tang's mother shouted.

"I trespassed? Then I'll sue you for imprisoning your own daughter." Su Ran's lips curled into a cold smile.

She put Tang Shan down, and Tang Shan quickly hid behind Su Ran, only peeking out a small head to look at Tang's parents.

"Xiao Shan, come back!" Tang's father shouted angrily when he saw Tang Shan cowering behind Su Hou.

"No way! I don't want to get engaged to someone else. Bankruptcy is bankruptcy, but even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Selling our assets can still cover some of the losses. Why do you have to force me into a marriage? Aren't you just selling your daughter for personal gain?" Tang Shan wanted to curse as soon as he mentioned this.

"Can you bear to see the Tang family's decades-long legacy destroyed in an instant?" Tang's father asked, his face turning ashen with anger.

“That’s because you don’t know how to run a business,” Su Ran interjected. “Even if you marry Tang Shan off, if you don’t know how to do business, you’ll still go bankrupt.”

"Shut up! Who do you think you are? How dare you judge the affairs of our Tang family!" Tang's father's face turned from green to purple as he was lashed out at by an outsider.

"She's my boss!" Tang Shan jumped out, hands on his hips. "If you make me get engaged to an old man, my boss will be the first to tear him apart!"

"What do you mean by 'boss'? You're a rich young lady, and you're acting like someone else's lackey? You have no class at all!" Tang's mother scolded angrily.

"Then let my sister get engaged to that old man. She's got the air of a refined lady from a prestigious family." Tang Shan rolled her eyes.

"You...you're trying to drive me crazy!" Tang's mother pointed at Tang Shan.

"I'm not backing down today!" Tang Shan declared defiantly.

Su Ran gave him an approving look, and Tang Shan straightened his back even more.

"Uncle and Aunt, I'm taking Tang Shan with me today." Su Ran smiled politely and pulled Tang Shan away.

"Wait," Tang's father called out to them. "Did I say you could leave? Tang Shan, if you dare to step out of the Tang family's house today, don't even think about coming back!"

Tang Shan turned around.

Just when Tang's parents thought she had changed her mind, Tang Shan rolled her eyes.

"Boss, take me away, I can't stay in this house anymore." She grabbed Su Ran's arm.

Su Ran patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, they can't stop me."

The Tang family comes from the security industry, and they have no shortage of bodyguards, all of whom are promising talents from professional fighting competitions.

Especially the bodyguards guarding the Tang family, who were once among the top ten in world-class championships.

They were all strong and healthy, and when faced with Su Ran's delicate yet beautiful face, they all felt that winning her over would not be difficult.

But just as they rushed forward, Su Ran raised her leg.

"CHUA—" A man with a hard, muscular body was kicked away.

Then, with a series of kicks, a group of men who had rushed up were sent flying five meters away like flowers scattered by a celestial maiden.

"No wonder it went bankrupt, its business acumen was lacking." Su Ran tucked her long legs in and mocked Tang's father.

Mr. Tang clutched his chest, never expecting that his bodyguard would be so easily defeated by a seemingly weak woman!

"I'll take her with me now, no need to see me off," she said with a smile.

Seeing Su Ran's arrogance, Tang's parents dared not stop her anymore, fearing that she would kick them to pieces.

"Wait a moment!"

Someone came running down from upstairs.

"You can take my sister away, but only if you can help the Tang family." The newcomer was dressed in white and looked delicate and charming.

Su Ran turned around, and the man's eyes widened in surprise, clearly not expecting that the person who came to help his sister would look like this.

"What does this have to do with the eldest brother? Bankruptcy is bankruptcy. At worst, we can sell our assets and not have to worry about debt. I know you're worried about affecting the Tang family's status in the Kyoto elite circle, and you're afraid that you'll lose your status as a rich young lady and won't be good enough for that person. Eldest sister, don't you think about it? If that person really liked you, he would have helped the Tang family long ago. Stop daydreaming all the time."

Tang Shan's words, spoken with his hands on his hips, were piercing Tang Ci's heart.

"What are you saying? Would I be that kind of person? I just can't stand that you've enjoyed so many good years, and now that the family needs you to contribute, you choose to run away!" Tang Ci retorted, her face flushed.

“Escape?” Su Ran frowned. “In terms of age, if we’re really going to have a marriage alliance, then you should be the most suitable candidate.”

“Mr. Zhao specifically requested Xiao Shan, what can I do?” Tang Ci turned her head away from Su Ran.

"That man surnamed Zhao is at least forty years old. He's arrogant, extravagant, and licentious. He even caused his wife's death because of his mistresses. How could you do such a thing, sending your youngest daughter, who's only eighteen, into a pit of fire?" Su Ran said with a forced smile.

Tang Shan wondered how the eldest son knew that the person his family was pressuring him to get engaged was over forty years old.

“Mr. Zhao donated 100 million yuan to impoverished areas this year, so he can’t be a bad person. Besides, Mr. Zhao doesn’t have any children. Xiao Shan is younger and prettier than those mistresses, and she will definitely be able to hold Mr. Zhao’s heart. Isn’t she much better than those good-looking young men out there? We are thinking about Xiao Shan’s lifelong happiness. What right do you, an outsider, have to interfere?”

The more Tang's mother talked, the more convinced she was of her own ideas, and she looked at Su Ran as if she were a sinner who had broken up her family.

"Then we have nothing more to discuss. I won't help fix this loophole in the Tang family, because you are not worthy to be Tang Shan's parents." Su Ran looked at them with utter disdain.

"You can't take Xiao Shan away!" Tang Ci said anxiously.

Without Tang Shan, how will the Tang family maintain its cash flow? Now even the banks won't give them loans. Besides Mr. Zhao, who else can help them? If the Tang family falls, she will be further and further away from that person.

"Whether we can leave or not is not up to you." The coldness in Su Ran's eyes froze Tang Ci in place.

Su Ran took Tang Shan away like that.

On the drive back, Tang Shan kept asking Su Ran how she knew she was trapped at home. Su Ran calmly made an excuse, saying that she felt something was wrong, so she came to check. Unexpectedly, she ran into several servants of the Tang family chatting and learned that Tang Shan was being forced into an engagement.

Tang Shan has always been the second oldest in the Tang family, with an outstanding older sister above him and a younger brother who is still in elementary school and is the heir.

Compared to her older sister, Tang's mother felt more sorry for her first child.

Compared to his younger brother, Tang's father valued the position of the heir more.

Therefore, she was always in a dispensable position in the Tang family, and her relationship with Tang's father and mother was not deep.

However, the Tang family has never shortchanged Tang Shan in terms of money, so although she has not received her parents' love over the years, she has had a smooth life in other aspects.

If it weren't for being forced into this engagement, Tang Shan thought she would be ignored by the Tang family forever. She had long been prepared to be ignored for the rest of her life, and even thought it was fine that way.

"Boss, this time I ran away from home, and they'll probably cut off my allowance. I need to find a job." Tang Shan said with a worried look on his face.

Su Ran pondered for a few seconds and took out a business card from her bag.

"Have you brought your erhu out yet? I have a friend who was invited by Teacher Li to participate in the Folk Music Grand Ceremony. You could try to see if you can join the folk music ensemble."

"Friend? Teacher Li? Boss, is the friend you're talking about Ghost Voice?" Tang Shan keenly sensed the unusual atmosphere.

Su Ran didn't speak, she just nodded.

During these days of filming, Li Youli kept looking for opportunities to meet her. The old lady was so enthusiastic that she felt embarrassed to refuse, so she agreed first.

Unexpectedly, Teacher Li invited her to participate in the Folk Music Grand Ceremony, which was attended by some of the most respected and accomplished elders. She felt quite embarrassed.

Hearing Tang Shan say that she was looking for a job, she realized that Tang Shan's erhu playing skills were superb and that he was one of the top performers in the folk music department, qualified to participate in the Folk Music Grand Ceremony.
