8 It Starts With Losing Me

Jiang Bangyuan's face was still deathly pale as she took two steps forward and scowled at Quan Rui and Bai Ran.

"Why did you do that?" she asked.

The eldest daughter of the Jiang Family, Jiang Bangyuan had a calm demeanor whose level of viciousness was comparable to that of Jiang Hao.

Had Jiang Bangyuan been a man, she would have full control over the Jiang Family.

At the moment, however, this impressive woman was glaring wide eyed at Bai Ran.

Bai Ran frowned, unsure of how to resolve this misunderstanding. Xu Chenglin, who was standing nearby, then walked over and stared at her with the same look of disapproval.

"Ranran, how could you… Were you cheating on me the whole time when we were together? I never expected you to be that kind of girl!"

He seemed to have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed today, for suddenly he began to chastise Bai Ran too.

His words and tone displeased her.

What's wrong with him? He was the one who two-timed me first. He got together with Jiang Yueping for the sake of her family's wealth, so how dare he accuse me cheating on him now? His sanctimoniousness was too rich for words.

Besides, there are also the two sisters of the Jiang Family…

Are the three of them ganging up on me now?

Bai Ran remained composed as she took a deep breath of air. As she looked around, much to her astonishment, she realized that the instigator of this drama was standing far away from the others.

There he stood, this tall, handsome guy, calmly taking in the scene with an amused look on his face.

Bai Ran couldn't help noticing Quan Rui's beautiful phoenix eyes.

At that very moment, his lips were curled in a casual smile. He returned her gaze with those eyes of unsurpassed beauty. Was he waiting for her to make a fool of herself?

What a jerk he is! We're neither kith nor kin, and it's our first time meeting each other tonight. Why did he have to cause trouble with me like that?

Fine! Since everyone thinks I seduced him, I won't allow them to publically humiliate me for no reason.

Bai Ran glanced at the calm and collected Quan Rui from afar. With her red lips pursed slightly, she flashed him a stubborn smile.

Quan Rui's gaze had never left Bai Ran, but when he saw her smile at him with a hint of defiance, his expression registered surprise.

Earlier on, he intentionally said he was kissing Bai Ran because he wanted to create a desperate situation like this to see how she would react.

He was interested in seeing what kind of personality a person with firm, bright eyes like hers had.

When Quan Rui was waiting to see what she would do, Bai Ran had already averted her gaze and looked elsewhere.

Xu Chenglin was the first person she turned to.

She had been engaged to this man for a month. She was simply honoring her father's wishes and dutifully went along things at the time.

During their short engagement, she had treated Xu Chenglin well so as not to worry her mother, who was severely ill.

But once Xu Chenglin found out she wasn't the daughter of the main wife of the Jiang Family, he dumped Bai Ran and went straight for Jiang Yueping.

I don't have many feelings toward this man, but…

Why does it seem as if I'm the most pitiful person in the eyes of the public?

This won't do!

It's time to turn the tables on this group. It would be so pathetic if I couldn't find a way to do that.

As this thought crossed Bai Ran's mind, she stood in front of Xu Chenglin and said coldly, "Xu Chenglin, our arranged marriage is officially terminated, just like the ring that was tossed from the third floor."

Xu Chenglin was horrified that she was airing his dirty laundry in public. "Ranran, you…," he stammered.

"If you don't know how to cherish me, let me teach you. It starts with losing me." After Bai Ran said this grandly, she did not look at Xu Chenglin anymore and strode toward Quan Rui under the surprised gaze of the onlookers.
