Chapter 15: Keeping the Promise

Perhaps at this moment, Lin Yue is leisurely sharing a warm afternoon tea with his family and friends after the reunion, while Su Ran is sitting alone in the empty office, puffing out smoke, and the smoke seems to shroud the surroundings in a cloud of sorrow.

Su Ran extinguished the cigarette in his hand fiercely, and an impulse surged in his heart. He wanted to slap himself hard to warn himself not to be so cheap. But in the end, he still couldn't do it, and just smiled helplessly. Over the years, his seemingly free and easy attitude and various unorthodox behaviors have become the sad marks left by Lin Yue. And he has been deeply trapped in this cage of the past that cannot be escaped, constantly hurting himself and unable to extricate himself.

As the smell of smoke gradually dissipated, the huge office became more and more empty and lonely, and Su Ran was still alone. The warm afternoon breeze blew gently, sneaking in quietly from the open window, but with a trace of indescribable melancholy, just like Su Ran's mood at the moment. After sitting there for a while, Su Ran felt hungry, so he put the cigarette in his pocket and got up to find something to eat.

As soon as he walked out of the elevator, Su Ran's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was Robben calling.

After the call was connected, Robben said apologetically: "Su Ran, I'm really sorry for what happened yesterday. I couldn't help you deal with it."

Su Ran smiled nonchalantly: "Brother, what are you talking about? Let's not talk about this. You are in a band, how can you be asked to deal with things like bar fights? If you really deal with it, which bar will dare to accept you as a resident singer in the future? It is my unshirkable responsibility as a young man to teach those blind guys a lesson, so don't worry about it."

Robben also smiled and said: "Okay, brother, I won't say much. By the way, there will be a fashion show at Suho Bar tonight, all of them are beautiful girls, and some of them are quite familiar with me. Come, if you like them, I will introduce them to you."

"Okay!" Su Ran agreed almost without thinking, this has become his instinctive reaction.

"Okay, I'll treat you tonight, let's have fun."

Su Ran, holding a mobile phone, just walked out of the office building, and was enveloped by the warm sunshine. Perhaps it was the effect of the sun, his thoughts seemed to become clear instantly, and he suddenly remembered that he had promised Xu Tianna last night that he would not go to nightclubs again.

Su Ran stopped, and his mind flashed back to all the unreliable words and deeds he had said to Xu Tianna a few days ago. He secretly decided in his heart that this time he must be a man who keeps his word.

After a short silence, Su Ran said to Robben, who was still waiting for his response: "Oh, look at my memory, I have some private matters tonight, so I really can't go."

"What can be more important than a group of us eating, drinking and having fun?" Robben asked half-jokingly, with a little surprise in his words. In his eyes, Su Ran has always regarded eating, drinking and having fun as the top priority in life.

"Things always have priorities, let's make an appointment another day, tonight is really not possible." Su Ran said firmly.

Although Robben was a little disappointed, he did not force it, and fulfilled Su Ran's night that was destined to be dull because of keeping his promise.

After hanging up the phone, Su Ran walked on the road in the warm wind, and was a little surprised at his change. In fact, even if he agreed to Robben, he was not helpless. With his previous style of doing things, he could tell Xu Tianna with peace of mind that he just attended the company's party and drank some wine. After all, she couldn't interfere with his legitimate party with his colleagues in the company.

But why didn't he choose to deceive Xu Tianna? Su Ran himself was a little confused. After thinking for a while, he couldn't figure it out. Simply, he attributed it to: Xu Tianna is too beautiful. Perhaps, for beautiful women, men are always willing to obey unconsciously.

However, this reason seems far-fetched, and even he himself finds it hard to convince. Why is that? Su Ran pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.
