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

Seeing this, Tang Shan immediately reacted. Although she was holding a violin, after months of running around with the orchestra, she had already developed incredible speed. She put the violin aside and followed closely behind Su Ran and Mo Sha.

What was supposed to be a lavish business dinner suddenly descended into chaos.

However, the other party seemed to have anticipated this. An Yecheng only glanced at one corner before a group of men in black surrounded him.

"I'm sorry, my fiancée isn't feeling well, so I'm taking her home first," An Yecheng announced to everyone.

"Ye Cheng, wake up! Do you know what you're doing?!" Zhong Jue roared angrily.

An Yecheng looked coldly at Zhong Jue: "In the past twenty-odd years, I have never felt so clear-headed."

Zhong Jue said, "How is Su Ran supposed to face you after this?"

An Yecheng said indifferently, "You don't need to worry about that. At least I'm much better than you. A man who doesn't even dare to fight for the woman he loves is, in my opinion, a coward!"

Zhong Jue roared, "An Yecheng!!"

The atmosphere became tense, with guests casting surprised and curious glances, yet no one dared to step forward to intervene. The music abruptly stopped, and the lights seemed to dim slightly in response to the sudden argument, casting a heavy atmosphere over the entire banquet hall.

Su Ran and her two companions were surrounded by men in black, unable to move in or out.

An hour ago, none of these people would have been a match for them.

However, after using the mysterious power, her physical condition was no different from that of an ordinary girl. In fact, Tang Shan and Mo Sha, who had always admired the post-apocalyptic world and strengthened their physical training, were much stronger than her.

Even though she could use the Floating Sword to hold out for three minutes, there were many people around, and it was hard to guarantee that nothing would go wrong.

An Yecheng stepped into the encirclement, looked down at Su Ran, and said in a low voice, "I'll only give you three minutes. Come with me obediently and don't make a scene. Give yourself some dignity."

Su Ran tilted her head: "Decent?"

Her hair, which had been pinned up with a hairpin, had somehow disappeared, leaving her dark, cloud-like hair loose over her shoulders. As she tilted her head, the smile on her face became eerily beautiful.

chap——

A black streak flashed by, but unfortunately, it wasn't strong enough and was firmly grasped in the man's palm.

Su Ran shook her head regretfully, looking at the hairpin in her hand that hadn't pierced the man's shoulder. "An Yecheng, now that you know the truth, you should also know that I'm a complete madman. Dignity means nothing to me, but it's very important to you, isn't it? Do you think you can control me firmly with your so-called evidence?"

An Yecheng snatched the hairpin from Su Ran's hand and said ruthlessly, "You are an artist under my company and a student of my academy. Your career, life, and studies are all closely related to my business. Ranran, give up the fight. You are no match for me."

Su Ran stopped looking at him and shrugged, trying to laugh.

As if making up her mind, Su Ran called out to the crowd, "Is Zhu Hong here?"

red?

Zhong Jue was a little confused when he heard the name.

Isn't Zhu Hong the CEO of SR? Why is she here too?

Yes, Zhu Hong is Gu Cai's distant cousin, and perhaps that's how the two met.

But what good would Zhu Hong's arrival do? She's not the chairman of SR, so how could she possibly steal Su Ran away from An Yecheng?

However, at that moment, an untimely cough came from the crowd.

"Ahem," Zhu Hong, dressed in a red dress, walked gracefully to Su Ran's side with a male companion. "I was wondering when you would greet me, but I didn't expect you to call me now. Speak, heroine, what can I do for you? Just let me know."

Zhu Hong looked sharply at An Yecheng.

Previously, the female warrior had instructed that her true identity as the chairman of SR should not be revealed to everyone, except in special circumstances. Following past instructions, the female warrior would absolutely not call her by her name in public like today, unless she encountered difficulties, or—the female warrior wanted to make it public.
