Before eating, Tang Yiran deliberately turned her phone ringer up to the loudest setting.

At that moment, her classic ringtone echoed throughout the private room: "Being single is great, being single is wonderful, I'm the proudest single aristocrat~ If you don't marry me, I won't marry you, I'll dance the cha-cha in the retirement home~"

At this moment, the relatives and friends at the dinner table looked at each other in bewilderment, especially Tang Yiran's parents, whose faces turned almost green with shock...

Tang Yiran casually pointed to her phone, indicating that she was going outside to take a call.

Even though it wasn't my best friend calling during the National Day holiday, it doesn't matter. At this moment, any phone call will do.

In this way, she would have achieved her goal.

This way, she could let her parents know her determination to resist their pressure to get married, avoid arguing directly with her elders, and most importantly, escape the situation.

Tang Yiran was starting to admire herself for killing three birds with one stone; she really was a clever little devil.

Holding her phone in both hands, she happily ran out to answer the call.

According to her original plan, she would rush back to the private room two minutes after receiving her best friend's call, and then tell her parents and aunt that her friend had something urgent to discuss and needed her to leave immediately...

Although things have deviated somewhat from the original plan, it's not a big deal; after all, everyone's phone is a phone.

Tang Yiran took her phone to a less crowded place before answering the call.

After the call connected, she spoke first: "Hello, who is this?"

It sounds like you're in a very good mood.

After a few seconds of silence, a soft voice came from the other end: "Are you Tang Yiran?"

"Yes, who are you?" Tang Yiran asked again.

The voice on the other end sounded somewhat displeased, "Who I am is not important, what's important is that you scratched my company's van this afternoon."

At this moment, He Ze in the luxury apartment had changed into his home clothes and was sitting slumped on a single sofa with a gloomy expression. In front of him was his bespoke suit that had been stained.

That was his most prized and favorite suit, one he wouldn't wear unless it was a very important occasion. Now...

Anyway, single guys get off work early and have plenty of time, so today he's going to have a good chat with this girl named Tang Yiran.

Upon hearing that it was the owner of the black van who had come to her, Tang Yiran's tone became more serious. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I accidentally scratched your car this afternoon. I will cooperate with whatever compensation is needed."

He Ze's tone softened a little when he heard the other party's attitude of admitting their mistake, but only slightly. After all, what he really wanted to pursue was not compensation for the car.

He said in a slightly cold tone, "Regarding the car compensation issue, someone from my company will contact you specifically later. I didn't call to discuss that."

Tang Yiran, who was hiding around the corner of the restaurant, listened with a puzzled expression, "If we're not talking about compensation for the car?? Then what are we talking about???"

She asked in a soft voice, "Sir, I'm sorry, I didn't quite understand. If we're not talking about car damages, then what exactly do you want to discuss with me?"

"Tell me about the terrible consequences you caused me after you scratched my company car!"

Tang Yiran: "???"

She only scratched the car, she didn't hit anyone, why are you talking about such terrible consequences? Could it be that she's been scammed by someone trying to extort money from her?

However, although Tang Yiran thought this way, she maintained her previous gentle attitude. After all, this was just her guess, and she wanted to hear what he had to say first.

So she asked, "What terrible consequences?"

At this moment, He Ze, who was curled up on the sofa, immediately perked up. He sat up straight and said quickly, "The unpleasant consequence is that you almost made me lose the opportunity to cooperate with a very important client. Also, you left your phone number, fine, but what lipstick did you use? Were you trying to show off your lipstick shade?"

Tang Yiran was surprised by the other person's harsh words, and her brows furrowed instantly.

Besides, she's still angry about the scratched car. If you really dig into it, she's actually the victim.

So she replied in the same sharp tone, "Sir, I was also helpless about accidentally scratching your car. I just apologized to you and will actively cooperate with the compensation issue. What do you want by talking like this? Do you expect me to kowtow and kneel down to you?"

"Besides, you said it was almost, so you didn't miss the opportunity, right? Why are you yelling at me? And the lipstick, do you think I wanted to waste my beloved lipstick writing a phone call? I just couldn't find a pen right away. Besides, what's wrong with writing with lipstick? You still managed to call me, didn't you?"

Tang Yiran, who was originally leaning against the wall, was now pacing back and forth with her hands on her hips, exuding quite a presence.

When it comes to arguing, she believes she has never lost; who's afraid of who?

He Ze, on the other end of the phone, didn't expect that after he only said a few words, the woman surnamed Tang would go on and on and on.

Normally, he wouldn't argue with a woman, but today he's determined to find out who's right and who's wrong.

He said, "Seizing the opportunity is due to my own ability, but it doesn't mean I can erase the mental pressure your actions have put on me. Besides, your lipstick stained my suit. If I don't confront you, am I supposed to go after the lipstick?"

On the phone, Tang Yiran said angrily, "So, what are you planning to do? Compensate you for your emotional distress? Or compensate me for your suit??"

At this moment, He Ze said, "I don't care about that little bit of money. I'm making this call today to let you know what kind of harm your so-called careless behavior has caused to others. Of course, if you can feel some remorse, I can still consider forgiving you."

Tang Yiran sneered, her words sharp: "You're quite an interesting man. You think you're the only one in the world who's not short of money? Sorry, I'm not short of money either. I can offer compensation, but as for me to feel guilty towards you, sorry, I can't do that..."

……

The two of them went back and forth, locked in a fierce battle, neither willing to give in!

They even escalated their initial discussions of forgiveness and remorse to personal attacks.

Tang Yiran: "A narrow-minded man like you will get divorced even if you get married, and you will break up with your girlfriend if you have one. If you are still single, that's even more terrible. You may never find a girlfriend in your entire life!"

He Ze: "...Rebound completely, you vicious woman!"

Finally, the two said in unison, "Goodbye!"

Tang Yiran added, "No, I mean never again! I'm blocking you, don't even think about calling me again."

He Ze immediately added, "That's exactly what I was thinking! Only a fool would call you."

The two then angrily hung up the phone.

Immediately afterwards, they blocked each other.

Before blocking the other party, Tang Yiran had specially saved his name as "Car Scratcher" because she didn't know his real name.

So that I won't forget one day and accidentally let him out again...

After completing a series of operations on her phone, Tang Yiran began to walk back, more than half an hour after she left the private room.

As she walked, she noticed a waitress's gaze following her. Thinking it was because of her natural beauty, she unconsciously tossed her hair.

To her surprise, as soon as she arrived at the door of the private room, the waiter handed her the bill, saying, "Hello, please settle the bill."

Tang Yiran looked into the private room in surprise and found that the huge room was completely empty...

Her parents not only abandoned her, but also left her with the bills.

Yes, she wanted to let her mother know her determination to resist being pressured to get married. Her mother wanted to let her know that even if she was single, it didn't mean she was the only one who didn't have to worry about the rest of the family.

Instead, she was responsible for feeding the entire family...
