However, when he thought about how she had used him for so long, the anger in his heart had long broken his rationality.
“Xu Wanwan, in my heart, you are the same woman as Zhou Lin.”
“It’s not like that. Can you listen to my explanation?” Xu Wanwan was so anxious that her eyes were red. She gently grabbed the corner of the man’s shirt.
She kept shaking her head. Before she could explain, Li Jingran pushed her away.
The man’s face was dark, and the coldness in his eyes had long concealed his reluctance.
“For old times’sake, I won’t pursue the matter of you using me.”
“I’ll give you three days to leave the Li family and never appear in front of me again.”
He said resolutely, and there was no room for negotiation in his words.
Xu Wanwan looked at him in a daze.
Her eyes suddenly became blurry, and a drop of sparkling tears fell from the corner of her eyes.
“Are you really not willing to listen to my explanation?”
They had been together for so long, but she had never seen Li Jingran so cold. It would be a lie to say that she was not upset.
Was she really such a heartless person in his heart?
Li Jingran looked away from the girl without changing his expression. He said impatiently, “What else do you have to explain?”
He had heard her say that she approached him in order to take advantage of him.
Explain?
Let her explain how she had relied on her apparent innocence to win his trust?
Xu Wanwan’s heart was stuffed. She did not want to give up so easily. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes and forced herself to calm down.
“I admit that my motive for getting close to you was impure at the beginning, but we’ve been together for so long, I’ve long lost the intention to take advantage of you.”
The girl’s voice was very soft but very firm. “I like you very much now, and I want to be with you.”
“I’m really not lying.”
Li Jingran stared at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression. An inexplicable anger suddenly surged from his chest, but his tone was still as cold as ice. “Xu Wanwan, in order to continue using me, you even learned to act in front of me?”
Xu Wanwan was completely stunned. It was as if a thorn had pierced through her heart, hurting her so much that she felt uncomfortable.
“Am I really that bad in your heart?” She said in disappointment. The light in her eyes gradually disappeared, and her hand gripped the corner of her clothes tightly. “In your heart, am I a bad person who will do anything for the sake of benefits?”
“I know that I’ve received benefits from the Li family, so I study hard every day. I also want to help you as much as I can.”
The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became. She also could not understand why Li Jingran did not believe her?
The man sneered, as if her tears had nothing to do with him. There was even a hint of disgust in his tone. “Didn’t you admit it?”
A steady stream of warmth flowed in her eyes. Xu Wanwan looked at the person in front of her in a daze. The person who had once protected her and brought her warmth seemed to have disappeared.
The current Li Jingran was like a stranger. There was not a trace of emotion in his eyes. His entire person was filled with a chill from head to toe.
Xu Wanwan suddenly did not know what to say. So many explanations suddenly stuck in her throat.
His indifference was like a high wall, completely cutting off her thoughts of taking another step forward.
Li Jingran narrowed his long and narrow eyes slightly and looked at her deeply. “Take care of yourself.”
After saying that, he turned around and left. His back was merciless and decisive.
Xu Wanwan was stunned for a few seconds before she instinctively chased after him.
By the time she caught up to him, the car that had stopped in the courtyard had already driven out.
She walked numbly toward the road. Her gaze followed the direction Li Jingran had left in, and her footsteps became faster and faster…
There was a piece of broken rock in front obstructing her way, and she stepped on the rock unaware that she suddenly lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Her arm rubbed against the rough ground, and her knee fell on top of the stone. She gasped in pain.

She endured the pain and struggled to get up from the ground. She lifted her foot and wanted to chase after him, but the car had already disappeared around the corner.
The wind rose and fell, smashing the fallen leaves on the trees and sweeping them along the road.
The road seemed to have no end.
Xu Wanwan’s pupils constricted slightly, and a dull pain came from her heart.
She did not know what love was.
She only knew that when she saw Li Jingran leave her today, her usual calmness and rationality were gone.
At that moment, she just wanted to grab his hand desperately and beg him to stay.
After the driver drove for a distance, Li Jingran suddenly said, “Turn around!”
When he was halfway there, he saw from the rearview mirror that Xu Wanwan had fallen.
He did not know if she was using him again and left in a fit of anger.
But after walking for a distance, he opened and closed his eyes only to see the scene of the girl crying and leaving him behind.
He took a deep breath and completely lost to her.
Although he knew that she was using him, he still did not want to see her get hurt.
The driver drove for another distance, turned around at the intersection in front and drove back.
After Xu Wanwan got up from the ground, she stood by the roadside in a daze for a long time.
Her knees and arms were injured. It was clearly very painful, but she could not care less.
Just as she was feeling disheartened, her wrist was suddenly pulled.
“What happened to you just now? Did you fall?”
Li Xuyi was panting heavily. He grabbed her injured arm and looked at it carefully. “Fortunately, it’s only a scratch. I’ll bring you to the hospital to get it treated.”
He was worried about Xu Wanwan being alone just now. When he rushed out, he saw that she had fallen. He followed her without even catching his breath.
Xu Wanwan pulled her hand back and said calmly, “I’m fine.”
Li Xuyi frowned when he saw that she was upset.
He took off his coat and covered her with it. “It’s windy outside. I’ll send you back.”
Xu Wanwan did not move. Her eyes were fixed on the other side of the road.
She did not know what she was expecting.
Li Jingran had left so resolutely, but she still hoped that he would come back.
If he could come back, she would definitely apologize to him and make up for everything she had done.
But why hadn’t he come after waiting for so long?
Seeing that she did not move, Li Xuyi put his arm around her shoulder and led her back. “Let’s go back.”
Xu Wanwan stopped and looked back for the last time.
The road was still so far and empty. Not a single car passed by.
She turned back in disappointment and gently took Li Xuyi’s arm away. “I’ll go on my own.”
The two of them walked back side by side.
A black Bentley stopped at the intersection. The person sitting in the car looked extremely gloomy.
Li Jingran’s eyes were cold as he stared at the back of Xu Wanwan and Li Xuyi. The veins on the back of his hand were showing.
He retracted his gaze and said in an extremely cold voice, “Let’s go.”

Inside the indoor cafe, Xu Yue was sitting in a hidden corner. She was wearing a hat and a mask, so no one could see her real face clearly.
More than ten minutes later, a similarly dressed man sat down on the seat opposite her.
