Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

"You are protecting your own reputation and that of your friends."

"As for them, they should bear the consequences of their mistakes."

"You just did what you were supposed to do."

"But I..."

Su Ruan wanted to say something more, but Su Qingqian stepped forward and gently put her arm around Su Ruan's shoulder.

"You don't need to think about that."

"Only gods and saints in the world can consider everything. We are just ordinary people. You don't need to be so demanding of yourself."

Su Ruan felt even more upset.

She was the one who called the police and got Su Qingqian's mother and brother arrested, but now she's the one who expects Su Qingqian to comfort her.

"Sister Qingqian, you hate me, don't you?"

Su Ruan has no way of hurting people under the guise of doing what's best for you.

No matter how bad Su's mother and older brother were, they were still her family.

"It was my own choice, you should blame me."

Su Qingqian felt extremely sorry for her.

How could she possibly blame Su Ruan?

If it weren't for Su Ruan, she really wouldn't know how to face this today.

Just like Su Ruan felt conflicted, those were her biological mother and brother, and no matter what she did, it was wrong.

She shook her head vigorously.

She didn't complain.

But then Su Ruan said, "It's okay if you resent me. I've brought you breakfast for three years. Can you forgive me?"

Su Ruan pleaded in a soft voice with a pitiful expression.

Su Qingqian's heart softened instantly.

Su Ruan did this to help her, but she still took all the blame herself and sincerely begged for forgiveness.

"good!"

"Since you've been so sincere, of course I forgive you."

Su Ruan then smiled happily.

Lu Yanci stared blankly at Su Ruan, who was acting coquettishly with Su Qingqian. This was his little cutie!

When she sent him a voice message back then, it was just as soft, timid, and filled with a cautious unease.

Although her words were clear-headed and rational, and there was a hint of deliberate manipulation, her tone remained consistent.

Lu Yanci was about to step forward when Su Qingqian solemnly supported Su Ruan's shoulder.

"Ruanruan, it's my turn next."

"Thank you!"

Su Qingqian spoke very formally and with great certainty.

"Thank you for stepping in today, thank you for getting me out of this predicament, thank you for arranging all of this for me."

Su Ruan smiled sweetly.

When Su Qingqian said she hadn't done anything wrong, she knew that Su Qingqian didn't blame her for it.

Su Qingqian is truly a very, very good person.

She deserves to be the object of Lu Yanci's love at first sight in the original text, and deserves to be admired by everyone afterward.

It is also worthy of her appreciation both in and out of the book.

Su Qingqian was extremely annoyed.

"But I don't have anything to offer as thanks."

Su Ruan gently tapped Su Qingqian's chest.

"What are you saying, you idiot?"

"Only a materialistic and realistic person like me would try to express emotions through material things."

"A simple thank you from you is worth a fortune!"

"real."

Su Qingqian laughed, then glared at Su Ruan.

"No one would say they're materialistic and realistic; you're perfectly fine."

Su Ruan chuckled, revealing two crescent moons.

Only truly kind people are so easily moved.

But she really has always been both materialistic and realistic.

If she weren't so materialistic and realistic, she could have simply left the school.

She already has the health she wanted, so where can't she live?

She couldn't bear to lose her health, nor could she bear to lose her studies.

It was because she was too greedy and wanted everything that she forced her way into Su Qingqian's life.

Fortunately, the crisis was resolved.

Today was a really busy day.

There seems to be some kind of party tonight, but Su Ruan has absolutely no desire to go.

It's much more comfortable to research and write papers.

At this moment, Lu Yanci really wanted to talk to Su Ruan, but Su Ruan directly pulled Su Qingqian back to the dormitory building.

Su Ruan sat down in the chair and realized that she hadn't thanked Wen Yubai yet.

There was no way around it; wherever Su Qingqian was, her eyes were only on her baby girl.

He opened the chat window and formally thanked Wen Yubai.

"Thank you so much for coming with me today."

She was truly grateful to Wen Yubai.

Without Wen Yubai, the acupuncture techniques she had previously recalled could only boost Qi but not stop the collapse, and thus could not save Lin Jing.

And there was the chaos that just happened at the school gate.

If it weren't for Wen Yubai and Lu Yanci, those two big boys, she and Su Qingqian, just two girls, might have suffered a loss there.

And Lu Yanci, he was also a great help today.

"Thank you too."

Lu Yanci: ?

What do you mean by "thank you too"?

Lu Yanci knew without even thinking that Su Ruan had sent Wen Yubai a thank-you message, which was why she remembered him.

By the way!

Su Ruan knew how to provoke him.

But would he dare to get angry?

He didn't dare, boohoo~

"Soft and cuddly~"

He couldn't resist sending Su Ruan a voice message.

He poured all his grievances and longing into that single call.

Su Ruan thought it was over after sending Lu Yanci a message, but to her surprise, Lu Yanci replied immediately with a voice message, and a very short one at that.

Su Ruan subconsciously assumed it was Lu Yanci's three words: "You're very polite."

Unexpectedly, after clicking on it, I saw those two sticky words.

Is Lu Yanci possessed by the spirit of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?

Even with online identities, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, there's nothing sticky about them.

"What's wrong?" Su Ruan replied with those three words.

Su Ruan could harden her heart when facing the cold-faced, domineering CEO Lu Yanci, but she couldn't help but soften her tone when she saw Lu Yanci's gentle, slightly broken, and pitiful side.

Lu Yanci sent another voice message.

This time it was: "Thank you."

Su Ruan was completely confused.

I completely don't understand the source of Lu Yanci's emotions.

Surely it can't be to thank her for helping Su Qingqian out of that predicament?

If so, it should have been Lu Yanci, not her, who came to Su Qingqian's rescue.

And then there were those two words he sent earlier, the two soft words filled with complex emotions.

Even if Su Ruan wanted to misunderstand the matter and blame it on Lu Yanci and Su Qingqian, she couldn't.

"Why say thank you?"

Su Ruan still chose to ask directly.

Lu Yanci gave her a three-word reply: "It's nothing."

What does "nothing" mean?

There's nothing wrong with you suddenly calling me, nothing wrong with you suddenly thanking me.

On the other side, Lu Yanci stroked his chat history with a cute little creature.

Looking at every voice message a cute little thing sent him.

Even without clicking on them, he could hear what each voice message said and what the tone was like.

He once truly believed that the girl who had suddenly stirred his emotions was about to disappear from this world.

But luckily, fate smiled upon him, and that girl appeared in his life.

It was the one who made his heart flutter at first sight.

"Are we going to the Xia family's banquet tonight?" he asked.

Su Ruan was still angry when Lu Yanci suddenly asked her a question.

The Xia family?

Which Xia family?

Previously, Su Qingqian only mentioned that there was a banquet this Saturday, but she didn't know which company was hosting it.
