"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Before Mu Ran could fully sober up, she was disturbed by a series of urgent knocks on the door. She stood up and rubbed her head. It was extremely uncomfortable to be light-headed after being drunk. She used all her strength to push herself forward. Just as she opened the door, Wang Man barged in.
"Ranran, are you alright?"
Wang Man grabbed Mu Ran's arm, her eyes filled with concern. She looked at her carefully, and after confirming that Mu Ran was alright, she let out a breath. "Mu Ran, I was worried to death. You and I both know who Liang Sheng is, and you still have to go see him alone."
The more Wang Man thought about it, the angrier she got. She wanted nothing more than to rush over to Liang Sheng's villa right now and teach him a lesson.
Mu Ran rubbed his head and shook his head slightly at Wang Man.
"But speaking of which, he didn't seem to do anything to you. Why were you in the hotel? He even sent me a text message asking me to come over?" Wang Man was confused. She pulled Mu Ran along and sat down by the bed.
Mu Ran bit his lip.
"I saw Fu Ting." She sighed. Although the alcohol had already taken over her and she was in a daze, she was still very sure that Fu Ting was the one who had taken her away.
"Him?"
Wang Man rolled her eyes. Thinking about how Fu Ting had treated Mu Ran in the past, she did not have a good impression of him at all.
"What was he doing here?"
"I don't know." Mu Ran shook her head. Whenever she thought about something, her head would hurt so badly that it felt like it was about to explode. "That's no hope of signing contract with Liang Sheng. We have to think of other ways."
"All you can think about is the contract!"
Wang Man was mad because Mu Ran almost lost her virginity and she was still thinking about business.
"What can I do?" Mu Ran spread her hands slightly. She admitted that she was indeed too eager for success, but she did not have a better way. "I know what to do. I won't let Liang Sheng take advantage of me."
Wang Man was angry, and her heart ached. Before she could scold her, Mu Ran's phone rang.
Mu Ran picked it up in confusion.
"Mu Ran, this is your Uncle Liang. I've thought about it. Your contract is exceptionally good, and I think highly of it. I've already signed the contract and will send it to your company by express delivery. You don't have to come over again."
Mu Ran hung up the phone and looked at Wang Man in confusion.
"Liang Sheng signed the contract?"
Mu Ran hung up the phone and nodded. He muttered, "He even asked me to say something good about him in front of Fu Ting. He even apologized to me?"
"Is he sick?"
Wang Man shook her head. The world was too crazy. "If Fu Ting listened to you, would you still be able to get a divorce? Even if you were still Mrs. Fu, you wouldn't be able to say much to Fu Ting all year round."
Mu Ran's eyes dimmed.
She had been married to Fu Ting for six years. The number of times that Fu Ting had taken the initiative to talk to her was probably less than ten times.
Most of the time, she was the one who kept talking, trying her best to find a topic to talk about and carefully looking for a starting point. However, Fu Ting was annoyed by her talk.
Wang Man bit her lip and moved closer to Mu Ran.
She asked tentatively, "So, there's really nothing going on between you and Fu Ting?"
Mu Ran nodded.
The Mu Ran that had liked Fu Ting for ten years, had died a long time ago. Her past self had died the day Fu Ting decided to bring Miao Man home and ask her to give up her position as Mrs. Fu.
However, Mu Ran mumbled something very strange.
When they were still together, she had not seen Fu Ting for a few months. After the divorce, she actually met him more often, and he was even haunting her.
Wang Man patted Mu Ran on the shoulder and thought for a while. She frowned and reminded her, "You should be more careful in the future. If anything happens to you, I really don't know how to explain it to Qin Wei."
Mu Ran nodded and replied in a faint voice.
However, she had not seen Qin Wei for a while, so she did not know what he was busy with.
"Qin Wei has a surgery and has flown to England. I heard that he will be gone for about ten days."
Hearing Wang Man's words, Mu Ran remembered that Qin Wei's main occupation was being a doctor. Evert time they met, he always looked like a dependable business elite. She could not imagine what he looked like in a white coat.
...
Fu Ting got up early and went downstairs. Miao Man had already prepared breakfast. She was sitting on the sofa and leisurely reading a book. When she heard the commotion downstairs, she raised her head and smiled at him.
"What are you reading?"
Fu Ting came over and looked at the cover of the book. It was a collection of proses.
"I remember you wrote in the letter that you like to get up early and curl up on the sofa to read." A rare warmth overflowed from Fu Ting's eyes, "But don't you not like proses? And you say that they are all meaningless moans?"
Fu Ting remembers that he argued with her about it in his letter.
