Yuan An

In the past month, Li Ci asked Yuan Shu out for tea at the Yunshe Teahouse a few times. He even brought Li Ran along a few times.

Yuan Shu knew about Li Ran's feisty and decisive personality. However, during the few times she had seen Li Ran, Li Ran had clearly matured. She also became more reticent and would look out of the window in a daze from time to time.

Li Ci let her immerse herself in her own world and would only ask her to leave with him after chatting with Yuan Shu to his heart's content.

On the way back, Li Ci teased her, "Don't tell me you're still thinking about that scumbag?"

Li Ran continued to look at the rapidly disappearing scenery outside the car window as she shook her head indifferently. "I've lost all feelings for him long ago. I'm just angry at myself. Why was I deceived by him despite knowing all about what he had done? I knew I was making the wrong decision, but I refused to turn back."
