Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Possessiveness

Cold and aloof, fair-skinned, with a noble demeanor, defined and handsome features, he perfectly hit her aesthetic point. Mu Ran gripped the steering wheel, the car’s headlights illuminating the road ahead, and her thin lips parted slightly, “I think we should each handle our own romantic entanglements cleanly, don’t you think?”

Her tone was cool, which made Xiao Yu’an feel a slight unease in his heart. Her actions were too much like a couple on the verge of breaking up, “Don’t you have any possessiveness?”

“What?”

“Are you possessive of me?” Xiao Yu’an asked, “If someone pursued me, could you handle it calmly?”

A person’s face suddenly appeared in Mu Ran’s mind, that person was—Ju Yuezhi.

As a rival in love, Mu Ran didn’t intend to question Xiao Yu’an that day, nor did she throw a tantrum, or feel possessive over his partner being pursued.

But she felt that was normal. She was so busy; how could she have time to deal with a love rival?

Wouldn’t it be better to spend time together when they had the chance?

Romance was too troublesome, it would only make Mu Ran retreat.

“Yes.”

Xiao Yu’an fastened his seatbelt, got out of the car, and shut the door, all in one seamless motion.

His figure quickly merged into the darkness.

Mu Ran: “???”

What was that about?

Why was he so mad?

Has he gone crazy?

Mu Ran also got out of the car, intending to make him come out and open the door, but when she gave it a slight push, she found the door wasn’t locked.

A shadow suddenly fell over her, Mu Ran lifted her eyes, and the man lowered his head, his dark eyes clear but hiding a rare sadness and stubbornness, “You don’t care about me!”

This was a statement.

Xiao Yu’an admitted, at the beginning he wanted to try it out with Mu Ran as well. At that time, her feelings for Mu Ran were not entirely pure, and he wanted to use Mu Ran to get closer to Xiao Jin.

But he couldn’t help but fall in love with Mu Ran, wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, only to suddenly realize Mu Ran was as ever, loving only his appearance.

She didn’t love him as a person!

Mu Ran grabbed his collar and pulled him down, their gazes meeting level.

Mu Ran’s eyes burned with a furious fire, “If I didn’t care about you, I wouldn’t waste my time with you at all!”

Their eyes met, and the angry sparks between lovers easily turned into ambiguous ones. A fierce and frantic kiss ensued, Xiao Yu’an hooked her chin, love and unwillingness transformed into intense desire, laying dense kisses on her lips.

Causing Mu Ran’s body to tremble and shudder.

Their clothes came off, and the two moved to the sofa, Xiao Yu’an single-handedly pulled up his shirt and took it off, revealing firm abs that pressed tightly against her soft, fair skin.

He lowered his head, his nose sliding over her smooth skin, inhaling and kissing her neck and shoulders, the hot breath from his nostrils burning every nerve of Mu Ran.

Mu Ran’s back was caressed by the man’s large hand, her entire spine tingled, her whole body soft and weak, Mu Ran’s breath was quick, moaning escaping her throat, as the two gradually sank into an adult’s world.

But Xiao Yu’an suddenly came to his senses.

She never loved him in the first place; once she got his body, she’d surely leave!

So, even though his veins bulged, his whole body filled with desire to be with her, he forcefully stopped at the last barrier.

Mu Ran was stunned.

She was really stunned.

Grabbing her own tangled hair, she tilted her head to look at the restrained Xiao Yu’an, a thousand words stuck in her throat, a burning anger igniting in her chest, but finally under the man’s tearful eyes, Mu Ran still calmed her body’s desire, picking up the clothes from the floor and putting them on.

“We aren’t married yet; it’s not appropriate.”

Xiao Yu’an explained.

Mu Ran’s head felt stuffed with tangled yarn, unable to sort it out, nodded at him haphazardly, “In that case, I’ll leave first.”

“I have a spare room here.” Xiao Yu’an quickly said.

Mu Ran was freaking out inside but remained calm on the surface: “It’s okay, you have a good rest.”

“Then I’ll come find you to hang out tomorrow.” Xiao Yu’an went to grab her hand.

Mu Ran gently drew her hand back, lifted her fallen hair, pursed her lips, showing a forced smile, “We’ll see about tomorrow. It’s getting late, you rest well.”

“You’re not mad, are you?” Xiao Yu’an began to regret again; the angered Mu Ran today was just angry, but now she was terrifying.

Mu Ran shook her head.

It was him who initiated the kiss first, she was pissed, did he think women didn’t have desires, flirting like that, then not taking responsibility!

Mu Ran drove the sports car at extreme speed.

Her inner anger turned into even greater anger, it seemed she found the wrong person, he was fine, nothing wrong, but the two were just not suited.

Mu Ran always felt she was a person with desires, and had no intention of getting married, so she stayed single, wanting to find a partner she could simply spend life with.

If the other person really wanted to get married.

If everything else was right, Mu Ran thought it wasn’t impossible, but from today’s situation, Xiao Yu’an was clearly a lover of pure love.

And she was just a worldly person.

Changing directions, she headed straight for the bar.

The blue and purple lights of the bar engulfed Mu Ran, she sat in front of the bar counter, ordered a drink, picked up her phone to book a chauffeur, so she wouldn’t be stuck later unable to go home.

The men around her were all restless.

Even though her long hair covered half her face, everyone could easily recognize her, that was Director Mu!

To enter this bar, one must have a certain sum of money, most people here were second-generation rich kids, but even they weren’t opposed to being a plaything for a rich woman.

Especially such a beautiful rich woman!

With sharp, mysterious charm and wildness coexisting, there was a chill that kept people at bay, her exquisite collarbones and long legs beneath the short skirt were captivating yet unassailable.

Mu Ran drank, the alcohol numbing her nerves temporarily, keeping the annoying images out of her mind.

If she wasn’t confident enough, she might suspect Xiao Yu’an wasn’t satisfied with her body.

“Director Mu, long time no see.”

“Long time no see.”

Mu Ran replied nonchalantly.

That’s what she said to everyone she met, sometimes not even remembering who they were, just going along with it.

“Did something upset you?” His voice was a bit lazy, not probing but simply chatting, without any coercion.

Mu Ran raised her glass and drank the rest before asking the bartender for another drink, then propped her chin with her hand, her light brown eyes gazing faintly at him, “I don’t want to chat, understand?”

The man was the most famous YA in the bar, wanted by many rich women. He was a university graduate and started in this line of work out of urgent need for money, but even after getting into this industry, with his exceptional looks and physique, rich women still flocked to him. This was his first time initiating a conversation with a customer, his colleagues all watching as a joke, but he didn’t care, just smiled at Mu Ran.

“Sorry for bothering you, this is the money I owe you for helping me before.”
