This time …
Sun Lan Lan made it clear.
Even though Liu Xiaojiang didn't understand Sun Lan Lan's feelings for him, he finally understood her true thoughts.
However, the truth was just as Sun Lan Lan had guessed.
Liu Xiaojiang didn't have any special feelings for Sun Lan Lan. He helped her out of her predicament because he was trying his best to repay her kindness.
Moreover …
He had just confirmed his relationship with Er Zhuang not long ago, so how could he possibly accept another woman?
Moreover …
Sun Lan Lan was just an ordinary person.
Even though she was the successor of the Sun Group and had some understanding of the Mutants, as she didn't know how to cultivate her energy … Too much contact with the Mutants would only bring her danger.
Besides, he was also the Sect Leader and was an alien that wasn't accepted by the world …
Liu Xiaojiang couldn't accept this inexplicable feeling. Even if he just wanted to treat Sun Lan Lan as a friend, he must have a certain sense of propriety to avoid involving the other party in a dangerous whirlpool.
Therefore, after pondering for a few moments, he shook his head and rejected Sun Lan Lan's feelings. "Miss Lan Lan, it's getting late. Let's get someone to pick you up."
"Although I don't understand why you have such thoughts, between you and me … it's destined to be impossible."
"Why?" Even though Sun Lan Lan had already guessed the answer, her eyes glinted with a trace of hope.
"Is it because you're a Mutant and I … am just an ordinary person, so you think that I'm not worthy of you?"
"You're outstanding. I'm the one who's not worthy …" Liu Xiaojiang shook his head.
"Although there is a gap between Mutants and ordinary people, it isn't as far apart as humans and ghosts …"
"But …"
"I only treat Miss Lan Lan as a good friend and I already have a relationship with her …" Marlene said with a smile.
"What's her name?" Sun Lan Lan was a little surprised.
"Er … Her name is Gao Yushan." Liu Xiaojiang didn't intend to hide this matter from an ordinary person like Sun Lan Lan. He only hoped that she would give up on such unrealistic thoughts.
"Gao Yushan …" Sun Lan Lan repeated Er Zhuang's name softly. Then, she looked at Liu Xiaojiang thoughtfully.
"Mr. Liu … Do you really love Miss Gao?"
"What do you mean …" Liu Xiaojiang frowned at Sun Lan Lan when he heard the words that sounded like cursing.
After all, after Er Zhuang's' patient guidance ', he had a certain understanding of the relationship between a man and a woman. When he heard Sun Lan Lan's words, he could not help but suspect that she was doubting his sincerity towards Er Zhuang.
He didn't think that he was the kind of scumbag who didn't want to be loyal to a relationship after getting it …
Moreover, in terms of the relationship between a man and a woman …
Before this, Liu Xiaojiang could be considered ignorant. Now that he had some understanding, he was also naive, so … compared to ordinary people, he was purer, to the extent that he couldn't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes.
Thanks to Er Zhuang's patient guidance …
He also felt that the relationship between him and Er Zhuang must be pure and beautiful. Loyalty … was just one of the most basic things in this relationship.
"Mr. Liu, please don't misunderstand …" Sun Lan Lan noticed Liu Xiaojiang's reaction and couldn't help but reveal a trace of disappointment in her eyes.
"I'm not doubting your relationship. I just want to confirm if you can differentiate between love and liking … That's all."
"Besides, it seems that …"
"My thoughts are obviously superfluous …"
In this regard,
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Sun Lan Lan in astonishment. He basically couldn't understand what she was talking about. But after realizing that she seemed to have given up, he said calmly.
"Since Miss Lan Lan is so outstanding, I'm sure you will find your sweetheart soon …"
"It's not easy being a person in this lifetime …"
"Living a peaceful and blissful life should be the most important thing for all of you to persist in …"
"After all, an uneventful life may seem extremely boring in your eyes. But you don't know … how precious it is in some people's eyes."
"Peace and stability …"
"Isn't that a rare kind of happiness …"
Then,
He ignored Sun Lan Lan in front of him and nodded slightly. Then, he turned around and walked to the other side of the street.
"Peace and stability, huh …"
Sun Lan Lan stood under the street lamp at the entrance of the alley and gazed at Liu Xiaojiang who eventually disappeared into the darkness. She couldn't help but feel bitter as though she had fallen out of love.
However, even though she felt as though she had been abandoned, she didn't feel as though she was dying.
She only let out a sigh to soothe the regret and disappointment in her heart. Then, she dug out her phone from her torn handbag.
[You silly girl, you're messing around again! Why did you only turn on your phone now? Where did you run off to?!]
[Dad, get them to pick me up …]
[What … happened to you?]
[Nothing … But do you have time now?]
[Nonsense! You're my daughter. Even if I don't have time … How can I not see you?]
[Alright, then … Will you accompany your daughter for a drink tonight?]
[You … Sigh! Come back quickly!]
[Okay …]
Then,
Sun Lan Lan hung up the phone and subconsciously looked in the direction Liu Xiaojiang left. After confirming that there was no danger in the surroundings, she tidied up her messy hair and clothes.
Shortly after,
She was like the strong woman in the past, walking toward the brightly lit area in the distance with a calm expression …
…
At the same time,
Liu Xiaojiang was leaning against the wall of a dark alley. Seeing that Sun Lan Lan had finally left this quiet area, he finally walked out of the alley with a calm expression. He then turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Sun Lan Lan.
[Hmph! At least you know what's good for you! Looting a burning house … Luckily, you weren't bewitched by that woman!]
"I'm only expressing my true thoughts. Besides, Sun Lan Lan's identity is relatively special. If Sun Desheng from the Sun Group wasn't an entrepreneur … but a capital, I wouldn't mind making use of their money."
[Sigh, what a pity … I really don't know what exactly that woman likes about you. Why would she fall for a poor kid like you who doesn't know anything?]
"…" Liu Xiaojiang was speechless.
"By the way, have you asked them? They shouldn't be the ones … who ordered the three of them to kidnap Sun Lan Lan, right?"
[No …]
[I've also investigated and found out that the three of them had no choice but to claim to have joined the All-Inclusive Society recently because of you, the Sect Leader, and the recent series of problems … Only by joining the All-Inclusive Society can they ensure that no one dares to lay their hands on them for the time being.]
[Besides …]
[They booked plane tickets to leave the country in a week. They probably wanted to extort enough money from the huge Sun Group for the three of them to squander in the future. That's why they chose to find an opportunity to lay their hands on Sun Lan Lan …]
"Before they claimed to have joined the All-Inclusive Society … What did they do?"
[Swindling … Although they didn't directly kill anyone, there were many families that were destroyed because of them. The worst one was that they even deceived a lonely old man in his eighties … Hmph. Death isn't worth pitying.]
"I see …"
Liu Xiaojiang looked at the documents displayed on his phone and felt even more disgusted with the scum of the Inhumans.
"Erzhuang, investigate the past of the members of the All-Inclusive Society and filter out those who don't deserve to die. As for the rest … forget about it."
[Yes, got it. I'll go now. But you're alone. Be careful of those Elves. Don't make me a widow …]
"Yes, don't worry. I won't …" Liu Xiaojiang assured in a gentle tone.
