"Li Chen, you really let me down."

The old man stood up, raised his walking stick, and hit the boy heavily.

Li Chen still didn't respond, not even frowning.

"As long as you break ties with that Luo Ranran, I can let the past go."

But Li Chen raised his head and looked at him, "I will definitely not break up with her."

Hearing this, surprise and shock flashed in the old man's eyes.

He had heard the rumors of these two people before, but he never took it seriously. He always thought that Li Chen was deliberately playing against him and provoking him on purpose.

After all, Li Chen grew up beside him since he was a child. He knows Li Chen too well, and he is a cold-blooded person in his bones.

But I never thought that Li Chen was serious this time.

It wasn't until Li Chen's confession that shocked the whole school yesterday that he realized that he was wrong.

"Li Chen, you have been by my side since childhood, and I have always valued you very much, that's why I put so much effort into cultivating you, but you have disappointed me so much."

The old man said that he hated iron and shook his head, "I have never let you have any weaknesses, it's all for you, for the Li family!

Wasn't your father killed by that crazy woman back then?Do you still want to repeat the same mistakes? "

The crazy woman Mr. Li was talking about was Li Chen's biological mother.

Although Li Chen is the descendant of the Li family that he is least willing to admit, he is also an indispensable and powerful pawn of the Li family.

The tasks assigned to him before have never failed. Apart from his strong ability, there is also a very important point, he has never had a weakness.

Like a hunting dog raised by the Li family, no one dares to get close to it, let alone defeat it.

But once there is a weakness, it will be easily controlled by others.

At that point, it will be useless.

All the energy spent on him before was wasted.

The Li family also lost their most powerful helper.

The old man patted Li Chen's shoulder, sighed and his tone eased a lot, "Little Chen, I understand how big your ambition is, everything is unknown now, you should think clearly about the consequences of doing so."

The young man's back was straight, and his voice was clear and pleasant: "Grandpa knows me so well, so he should know that the things I decide will not change. Even if I go to the dark side, I will recognize her. I just like her."

Hearing this, the old man's eyes widened with anger, "Okay, you boy, since you don't listen to persuasion, you can only deal with it according to the family rules. I want to see how tough your mouth is!"

After that, he returned to his seat and sat down.

Two bodyguards with plum tattoos held long sticks and walked to both sides of Li Chen.

"Let's get started, I want to see how hard you can talk about that little girl!"

The old man waved his hand to signal the bodyguard.

The long stick was raised high, and landed on the boy's back one after another, making muffled sounds.

Such consequences were within his expectations.

Originally, he planned to express his heart after he was in full control of the Li family, but his confession last night was indeed impulsive, but he did not regret it at all.

When he knew that Ran Ran also had himself in his heart, Li Chen didn't want to wait for a moment, and he didn't want to suppress his feelings anymore.

Although he knew the consequences of doing so, he still wanted to be with her, in an open and above board manner.

The stick hit him, and Li Chen clenched his fists to bear it, the young man laughed wantonly and said loudly: "I like Luo Ranran!"

He yelled every time he struck, without any fear of the gloomy old man on the seat.

The young man's voice resounded through the ancestral hall, arrogant and provocative, openly opposing him.

"I just want to be with Luo Ranran!"

"I like Luo Ranran!"

The long stick kept falling on Li Chen's back, the young man swayed slightly but still persisted.

The white shirt was soaked with sweat, and the back was already covered with bloodstains.

There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and there was a ruthlessness in his resolute expression.

The old man reached out to stop him, and the two bodyguards nodded and stopped.

He lowered his eyes, turned the beads in his hands, sighed, and wanted to take a step back, "I'll give you another chance, it's good for everyone to break up with her."

There was a smile on the corner of the boy's mouth, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Impossible, we will be together forever, and when we get married in the future, grandpa must definitely come to participate."

"Heh...the Li family still needs to carry on the family line, so it's natural to get married and have children. But you can't really be tempted, you know that.

Why, you don't want to break off with her, do you want to break off with the Li family? ! "The old man's voice kept getting louder, this time he was really angry.

It was also the first time that he realized that he could no longer control the boy in front of him.

Li Chen let out a few laughs from his chest, and raised his eyes casually, "In this case, the only choice is to sever ties with the Li family."

With Li Chen's current ability, getting rid of the Li family might be a way to retreat.

The Shen family has already stepped into the game he set up, and just signed the contract for that land not long ago.

It is a matter of time before the Shen Group goes bankrupt, and City A will soon be reshuffled.

There are quite a few properties under Li Chen's name, and it is not a bad idea to set up his own business and annex the Li family when the time is right.

Although it is a dangerous move, it is also the only way to break the game the fastest.

If he succeeds, he can still become the master of the Li family.

Anyway, no one in the Li family sincerely admits his identity. Since they are all outsiders, let's be more thorough.

The old man was very angry. He clutched his chest, unable to stand still.

"You...you!! Well, you really have strong wings and skills. I actually raised a white-eyed wolf. You want to break away from Luo Ranran for the sake of Luo Ranran!?"

There was cruelty in Li Chen's eyes, like a runaway wild horse, completely out of control, with a powerful aura.

"Yes, everyone in Li's family doesn't like me. Wouldn't everyone be happy that I'm gone?"

Seeing Li Chen's resolute look, the old man was speechless for a moment.

The wolf cub raised by himself still bites back.

It's just that he can't accept all this just for a woman.

He took out a pill from the medicine bottle and swallowed it, calmed down his excitement slowly, and waved his hands helplessly, "Okay, since you have made a decision, after you have been punished according to the family rules, let's go."

After that, he left on crutches.

……

Although Luo Ranran acted like it was okay, she was still a little disappointed, after all, it was her first date that she was expecting a whole night of excitement.

Just when she was about to play a slow-paced emo song, Nan Xue called.

"Ran Ran~ Tell me where did Young Master Li take you last night? How did you arrange for the first day of the new year?

Let me be righteous, I was afraid of disturbing you yesterday, so I held back until this morning before calling~"

It sounds like Nan Xue is in a good mood, and it just so happens that Luo Ranran also missed her appointment today, and the two hit it off immediately and plan to go shopping.

After returning from camping last time, Nan Xue found a good house and moved out.

Although Luo Ranran tried to persuade her to stay with her many times and wanted her to live with him, she was always rejected.

Luo Ranran knew that Nan Xue had a strong self-esteem and a stubborn temper, so she didn't say anything more.

In the past few days, Luo Ranran has been busy rehearsing dramas, and Nan Xue is also busy with schoolwork. Although she is the vice president but it is near the end of the term, she has not participated in the performance, and she does not have much time to come to the club.

So as soon as the two met in the coffee shop, Luo Ranran's first question was to ask her if she was used to living in her new home.

Nan Xue used a straw to turn the ice cubes in the glass, and said with downcast eyes, "It's pretty good. Actually, I wanted to move out and live by myself a long time ago, but I never dared to. Now I feel very refreshed, and I don't have to worry about others anymore."

Luo Ranran nodded, "Don't wrong yourself, if you don't live well, come to my place, welcome anytime."

Nan Xue waved her hand, and replied with a gossip look, "Okay, I know, don't talk about me, tell me quickly, what's going on with you and the young master~ You're together so soon!"

Although she guessed that she and Li Chen probably had a crush on each other, Nan Xue really didn't expect it to progress so quickly, and she even made a high-profile confession in front of the whole school.

Luo Ranran lowered her head shyly, and unconsciously smiled sweetly when she thought of Li Chen.

"I just don't want to wait any longer. You know I'm short-tempered. Now that you've made up your mind, tell him quickly~

Anyway, I have a thick skin, thinking that if I get rejected, I’ll just talk about it, and it’s uncomfortable not to say it all the time, but I didn’t expect that he really likes me..."

Luo Ranran's voice became smaller and smaller, and she was immersed in happiness.

Nan Xue sighed, looked at her enviously and said, "Ran Ran, you are really brave, if only I could be like you..."

If he could do this himself, wouldn't Fu Zhifeng and Fu Zhifeng not come to this point?

"Xiaoxue, you are already very brave, I believe you will find your own happiness!" Luo Ranran raised her head, her voice a little excited.

Nan Xue has changed and grown a lot from when she first met her.

In fact, she is braver than herself. As the weak little white flower in the original book, she has already broken through the limitations of her personality. Luo Ranran knows how difficult the transformation is.

But she did.

After coming out of the coffee shop, Luo Ranran took Nan Xue to the shopping mall to buy clothes.

They did not go to luxury stores, but to some affordable brands.

Nan Xue usually doesn't have many clothes, many of them have been washed white.

As the new year approaches, Luo Ranran's flower shop has made a lot of money recently, and she also paid Nan Xue a lot of money. Today, she bought it for a big deal.

It's rare for Nan Xue to go shopping, so Luo Ranran dragged her to buy it.

Maybe it's because Nan Xue is really too beautiful, no matter what kind of clothes she wears, she looks good and makes people want to buy them.

So Luo Ranran waved his hand and took them all down.

"Ran Ran, it's really enough. I can't wear it all. Don't buy it." Nan Xue advised, looking at the shopping bags all over the place.

She just came out of the fitting room, and she was still wearing the white dress in the window that Luo Ranran let her try on just now.

Nanxue is really suitable to wear white, she has a pure and holy feeling, Luo Ranran sat on the sofa and looked her up and down, and said to the waiter:

"Well, this one is also packed for me."

The waiter immediately agreed with a smile.

Luo Ranran raised Erlang's legs, held a lollipop in her mouth, and pulled Nan Xue to sit down beside her, "It's okay, don't worry about having too many clothes, you worked so hard in my flower shop, these clothes are used as year-end clothes." Award~~"

This is not wrong. Nanxue does manage the flower shop very well, and it is because of her that the income is getting better and better. Many regular customers like Nanxue's service attitude.

The little girl was very polite and spoke softly, leaving many guests behind.

Luo Ranran originally wanted to give her a bonus, but Nan Xue didn't want it, so she had to give up.

Later, she changed her mind, even if Nan Xue was given a bonus, she might not be willing to spend it on herself, so she might as well bring her to buy clothes.

Luo Ranran took Nan Xue to sweep around the store, and the shopping bags increased a lot.

Fortunately, Luo Ranran brought bodyguards with her when she went out today, otherwise the two of them would definitely not be able to carry so many things.

After ordering the bodyguards to put the bought things in the car, it was already noon.

The first round of shopping is finally over.

Nan Xue also breathed a sigh of relief, and took Luo Ranran to a newly opened steakhouse for lunch.

Luo Ranran had been looking forward to the renovation of this store since the beginning. At that time, Nan Xue planned to wait until she had saved enough money to treat her to dinner.

The two chose a seat by the window and sat down. After the steak was served, they directly inserted it with a fork.

Recalling the last time she ate steak, Nan Xue still looked timid, but now she can enjoy the delicious food leisurely.

Luo Ranran couldn't help but smile in relief.

"I was actually afraid of going into this kind of high-end restaurant before, but later I found out that it's not that scary~" Nan Xue said after taking a sip of wine.

Luo Ranran nodded, "Yeah, this food is for people to eat, whether you eat it or not will make others laugh at you depends on whether you care about it or not.

When you are really strong, no one will dare to say anything even if you eat steak with chopsticks. "

Luo Ranran said ahhh and ate it in one gulp.

Mmm, it smells so good~

Nan Xue looked at her adoringly and said with a smile: "From now on, I will only come out to eat steak with you! Let this be exclusive to the two of us!"

Luo Ranran raised her eyebrows and teased: "Oh? Then wouldn't someone like Fu be jealous~Xiaoxue told me what's going on with you and Fu Zhifeng recently?"

In the past few days, Fu Zhifeng came to look for Nan Xue almost every day, but he didn't dare to say anything when he saw her.

However, Luo Ranran could feel that after returning from camping, her attitude towards Fu Zhifeng had changed.

The current relationship between the two is more like AUO and above, but not lovers.

It was New Year's Eve yesterday, and I don't know if Fu Zhifeng seized the opportunity.

Nan Xue avoided her eyes, and when she was thinking of an excuse to evade her, she saw a familiar figure approaching.

Seeing Nan Xue froze, Luo Ranran looked back at her in puzzlement, and saw Jiang Xiao walking over.

The boy wore glasses and looked polite, and greeted them with a smile.

"Hey, what a coincidence, I ran into it here."

Luo Ranran also responded politely and distantly, then turned her head away.

During the few days of club rehearsals, Li Chen was not around, and Jiang Xiao often volunteered to help with the play, and the two got to know each other a lot over time.

He is a gentleman and takes good care of Luo Ranran.

Unlike Li Chen, Jiang Xiao feels more mature and stable, but always shrewd.

Luo Ranran felt that this man was very rich and didn't want to be friends with him.

It could be seen that Luo Ranran was a little embarrassed, and Jiang Xiao didn't say much. After saying hello, he sat down in a seat far away.

Luo Ranran didn't pay much attention, and continued to eat and chat with Nan Xue.

When paying the bill, Nan Xue rushed to pay the bill, but Luo Ranran didn't refuse, she just smiled and said that she would invite her next time.

After lunch, the two planned to buy some new year's goods, but before they started shopping, Nan Xue had something to do first.

She recently received a drawing. Although the fee is very high, Party A is really troublesome.

Often a phone call would send her running back to revise the manuscript.

After changing several versions, she was not satisfied, but Nan Xue became more and more frustrated.

Even on the first day of the new year, I can't rest and stand by at any time.

Seeing Nan Xue's embarrassed face, Luo Ranran had no choice but to let her go, otherwise even if she was allowed to continue shopping, she would be absent-minded.

After Nan Xue left, Luo Ranran had no choice but to go shopping alone to buy new year's goods.

Red lanterns are placed on the top shelf of the shopping mall, and it must be very old-fashioned to hang at home.

Luo Ranran stood on tiptoe and was about to reach out to take it, when a tall boy walked by and helped her take it off.

When she looked up and saw Jiang Xiao, Luo Ranran immediately took a step back.

Jiang Xiao smiled nonchalantly, and handed her the lantern.

Luo Ranran didn't answer, but looked at him thoughtfully.

After a while, he asked, "Jiang Xiao, do you like me?"

Unexpectedly, Luo Ranran said this, Jiang Xiao was stunned.

Luo Ranran is not a fool. Although she is a little slow in emotion, she gradually realized something after she got enlightened.

For example, Jiang Xiao's repeated gestures of friendship did not give the impression that he simply wanted to be friends.

She could feel it, and she didn't want this feeling of ambiguity to continue. After all, she was the president. If she didn't look up and look down, it would be better to ask clearly.

Sure enough, Luo Ranran's intuition was correct, Jiang Xiao nodded after a few seconds of silence.

Luo Ranran looked at him calmly and said, "President Jiang, you also know what happened yesterday. I already have a boyfriend now. So, please respect yourself."

Jiang Xiao pushed his glasses, his voice was a little anxious, "But... But Ran Ran, I really like you..."

Luo Ranran raised her hand to interrupt, and explained patiently: "But I really don't like you, the person I like is Li Chen, and he's the only one."

Jiang Xiao was a little excited and wanted to grab Luo Ranran's wrist, but after thinking about it, he still put it down and didn't touch it, but the image of a gentleman before had completely disappeared.

"Ran Ran, can you give me a chance too? The Li family is too complicated, you will not have a good result with him..."

Luo Ranran took a step back with a cold expression, "Jiang Xiao, I think what I said is very clear, you don't need to take care of our affairs, you and I are just the relationship between the president and the members, not even friends, I don't want to make it too ugly, after all, we can't avoid seeing each other in the future."

Luo Ranran said with a sigh, "There are many girls who like you, don't waste your time on me, I'll tell you clearly now, we can't."

Jiang Xiao was shocked by this sudden rejection, he fell in love with Luo Ranran at first sight, and he has liked her since she joined the club.

It's just that she didn't expect Li Chen to have such a close relationship with her.

He can pretend not to know about the rumors from the outside world, and his confession last night can also be regarded as public, because the power of the Li family dare not refuse...

But now, when Luo Ranran stood in front of him and refused without leaving any room, Jiang Xiao realized that he really had no chance.

In fact, I should have thought of it long ago, but I just haven't been willing to face it.

Looking at Luo Ranran who was indifferent and alienated in front of him, Jiang Xiao put the lantern back to its original place, and after a long while he pulled out an ugly smile.

"I... I have something to go, so I won't bother you."

The back of him leaving was a little lonely, but Luo Ranran was helpless.

It is undeniable that he did nothing wrong and is a good person, but he just likes the wrong person.

He is nice, but Luo Ranran only likes Li Chen.

Li Chen is a very insecure person, so Luo Ranran wanted to give him a sense of security and make him feel at ease.

Jiang Xiao gradually disappeared from sight, and when Luo Ranran continued to step on her feet to get the lantern, she was suddenly hugged from behind.

The familiar clear smell hit, Luo Ranran did not resist, but let the man hug her waist.

She fell into the boy's arms, with her back pressed against his broad chest.

A deep magnetic voice called Luo Ranran's name.
