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

"Thank you, Ruanruan!"

After exchanging greetings, the roommates rushed to the local specialties on their table.

"Pastries? Tea?"

"Yes, it's specially made by their hospital's nutrition department; it's low in sugar and low in fat."

"This is great!" The roommates' eyes lit up.

"Ruan Ruan, you went to the hospital?" Ruan Tao Le looked through the pastries. "I thought you went somewhere else."

Su Ruan smiled and said, "My senior brother has a patient, I'll go with him to take a look."

Ruan Taole nodded, and no one else asked any further questions.

After tidying up briefly, I went to bed for a nap.

After getting up, everyone was packing their books, but Su Ruan was packing herself.

Ruan Taole asked curiously, "Don't you have class this afternoon?"

Su Ruan shook her head. "I have something to do, so I'll skip it for now."

Today is Friday. If I don't go to see anyone this afternoon, they'll all be off on Saturday.

Ruan Taole simply nodded, and the group packed up and left together.

Su Ruan looked at herself in the mirror, deliberately making her eyebrows and eyes more sharp, and trying to make her facial features look less vulnerable so that people wouldn't think she was too beautiful at first glance, before picking up her bag and leaving the house.

It wasn't until she got into the car that Su Ruan started to feel a tiny bit nervous.

In her limited memories, she had never met any high-ranking officials, nor had she ever dealt with such matters.

The instinctive fear that people feel when facing the unknown made her feel uneasy.

Even though she knew that the other person was just a human being, and that she was going to talk about serious business.

When the car stopped, Su Ruan took a deep breath.

When she opened the car door again, she transformed back into the calm and composed Su Ruan.

In any case, once she decides to do something, she will do it with all her might.

Everyone has moments of fear, but fear should never be an excuse to stop her.

She strode into the solemn and imposing administration building with an air of indifference.

"reserve?"

Su Ruan's heart tightened, and her ears instantly burned.

How could she forget this?

Leaders are so busy, it's impossible for them to receive you whenever you arrive.

For the first time, Su Ruan deeply felt her own immaturity.

These are problems that cannot be solved by using cheats.

Even though she knew how to establish a relationship with the leader she needed to meet, how to actually do so had become a problem.

"If I make an urgent appointment now, when will it be my turn?"

"After registering for the appointment and submitting the materials, it will take about one or two weeks."

One or two weeks!

For the first time, Su Ruan felt the deep malice of reality.

Looking for Lu Yanci?

The impulse had barely formed when she suppressed it again.

She said she would try it herself.

But I feel so powerless.

She still submitted the required materials and registered for the appointment as requested.

Perhaps, we could try to stop people from leaving get off work.

Although it might lower your impression score, at least you get to see the person first.

Just as Su Ruan was thinking about what other options she could have, a voice sounded from behind her.

"Miss Su?"

Su Ruan turned around; she had seen this person at the banquet.

"Mr. Wang, what a coincidence!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Yanzhou's eyes. "Miss Su, you still remember me?"

Su Ruan smiled and nodded.

"Of course I remember the second son of Jingsheng Industrial."

That's her only advantage: she has a good memory.

Wang Yanzhou's smile became even more genuine.

"It's kind of you, Miss Su, to remember me. Miss Su, what brings you here...?"

He asked the question because he saw Su Ruan standing at the reception window.

"Oh, I need to see Director Xia about something. I'm here to register first."

Wang Yanzhou found it even stranger.

Given Miss Su's relationship with the Xia family, is it really necessary to register here?

What kind of tactic is this? Is the process compliant?

However, he didn't ask any further questions. "I was just about to go see Director Xia anyway, want to go together?"

A look of surprise appeared in Su Ruan's eyes.

"That's great!"

If she could go upstairs with Mr. Wang, she wouldn't have to wait for him downstairs.

Moreover, perhaps out of respect for Mr. Wang, they genuinely did not stop her.

Su Ruan felt a throbbing sensation in her heart, as if she had done something wrong.

But since things have already come to this point, let's leave it at that.

Go up the road.

Upon arriving at their destination, Wang Yanzhou parted ways with Su Ruan, saying, "I'll go in first."

Su Ruan nodded.

I sat down in the waiting area first.

Just as he was thinking about how to get in and how to negotiate with Director Xia, Wang Yanzhou came out.

"What bad luck today, Director Xia just went out."

what?

Su Ruan looked surprised and bewildered.

She was ready to go all out, but Director Xia wasn't there?

Wang Yanzhou laughed, "It's also my fault. I only found out that Director Xia was here this morning, so I rushed over. I didn't expect him to have something to do in the afternoon."

"It seems Miss Su has something urgent to attend to?"

Su Ruan nodded.

"I guess so."

"Then Miss Su can contact Mr. Su directly; he should be able to reach you."

Su Ruan knew that the Mr. Su that Wang Yanzhou was referring to was Su Zhe.

That is indeed an option.

"Okay, thank you."

She nodded, stood up, and went downstairs with Wang Yanzhou.

After all this trouble, it's already 4 o'clock.

Su Ruan's initial enthusiasm dissipated, and feeling exhausted and lost, she took a bus back to school.

She was ultimately just an ordinary, useless person.

Why should she protect Zhou Zhengyang?

Why should we promise him that kind of future?

She only knew about certain paths because she had read that book.

She naively believed that she could also achieve great success.

It's ridiculous.

Back in her dorm, Su Ruan was completely dejected, feeling lost once again.

When Ruan Taole and the others returned, they were shocked to see Su Ruan in that state.

"What's wrong with you?"

In their hearts, Su Ruan has always been powerful and omnipotent.

I've never seen her like this before.

Su Ruan remained slumped over.

"I suddenly feel so useless."

How many people are there, including Ruan Tao Le?

Is SuSoft useless?

Having money, good looks, and talent—that's being useless?

Then what are they?

And what about the vast majority of people who can't even get into J University?

Ruan Taole went up and checked the temperature of Su Ruan's forehead.

"What's wrong with you? You don't have a fever."

Ji Ning tentatively asked, "Did you mess up things this afternoon?"

Su Ruan nodded.

"I suddenly realized that it's so troublesome to do something as an ordinary person."

Ji Ning fell silent.

Su Ruan is just an ordinary person, so what are they? Aren't they human?

Ruan Taole, however, became interested. "I'm curious, what did you do this afternoon?"

Su Ruan answered truthfully, "Didn't we say before that we wanted to invest in Dingshiji? There was a small problem when our company submitted the application materials."

"I thought I could handle it myself, but when I went out, I realized that this world instance is really difficult."

Ruan Tao Le: ...

This world has always been this difficult, okay?

Moreover, Su Ran, you've only just begun to understand!

Ruan Tao Le's family runs a small business, so she naturally knows how troublesome it is to collect information.

This was the thing her father complained about most when she was a child.
