It was a charity gala. Cheng Ran originally wanted to bring Gu Xiaan along.
However, Wang Yangmo wanted Xiao Qinghe to hook up with Cheng Ran, so he used his connections to find someone to hold Gu Xiaan back. That day, Cheng Ran went alone.
The charity gala was not interesting to begin with. Cheng Ran had attended it countless times. After going through the process, he sat at the side, drinking champagne and chatting with Gu Xiaan on WeChat.
At this time, Xiao Qinghe dressed up and attended.
Xiao Qinghe's appearance leaned towards that of a little white flower. She knew very well that Cheng Ran liked her appearance, so she dressed up completely according to Cheng Ran's preferences that day. She wore a white dress, paired with a simple bun and no makeup. It instantly reminded Cheng Ran of their time in university.
When they were in school, other than a small number of people who were more scheming, most people's thoughts were simpler. It was obvious at a glance whether they liked someone or not.
Many people knew that Cheng Ran liked Xiao Qinghe. Many people also knew why Cheng Ran liked Xiao Qinghe and why he liked Xiao Qinghe.
Xiao Qinghe was a dream of Cheng Ran's when he was young. Now, this dream appeared in front of him alive and smiling so gently. No one would not be moved.
Cheng Ran was a person with strong self-control. He was already prepared to spend the rest of his life with Gu Xiaan. However, this did not mean that he would not be in a trance because of his childhood dream.
Cheng Ran's gaze was almost instantly attracted by Xiao Qinghe. At this moment, Cheng Ran could only see Xiao Qinghe.
As Xiao Qinghe came in front of Cheng Ran, Cheng Ran's mind went blank. He did not even look at the message Gu Xiaan had just sent.
Cheng Ran stared blankly at Xiao Qinghe for a long, long time.
It wasn't until Xiao Qinghe called out, "Senior," that Cheng Ran returned to reality from the dream.
He was already almost 30 years old, but when he faced Xiao Qinghe, Cheng Ran felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Cheng Ran scratched the back of his head in a daze. He stood up and pulled out the stool. He smiled and said to Xiao Qinghe, "Why are you here?"
Xiao Qinghe sat down and said to Cheng Ran, "The company's leader had something to do at the last minute and couldn't come. He asked me to take over. I didn't expect to meet Senior."
After Xiao Qinghe finished speaking, she looked beside Cheng Ran and asked knowingly, "Where's Sister-in-law? Why didn't Sister-in-law come with you? Didn't you say that sister-in-law is from the same company as you? "
Xiao Qinghe suddenly mentioned it. Only then did Cheng Ran remember that Gu Xiaan hadn't replied to her message. She took out her phone and glanced at it. The message was, "Look up."
Cheng Ran subconsciously raised her head and saw Gu Xiaan standing not far away.
Gu Xianan was still wearing the matching couple outfit that they had worn together last night. The makeup on his face was the kind that he often saw. Every time he saw Gu Xianan's carefully dressed appearance, he would always complain with jealousy. Why did he have to make himself look so good? What if he was stolen by someone else in the future?
Gu Xiaan's eyes were very beautiful. He always praised that Gu Xiaan's eyes were filled with stars.
Gu Xiaan would also tell him that the stars in her eyes were twinkling because she liked him. The stars in her eyes were not stars, they were her love for the handsome Cheng Ran.
In the past, every time Cheng Ran heard Gu Xiaan say this, she would hug him and kiss him deeply.
But at this moment, seeing Gu Xiaan's teary eyes, Cheng Ran felt inexplicably guilty.
Cheng Ran walked towards Gu Xiaan. Looking at Gu Xiaan's red eyes, he subconsciously wanted to help her wipe away her tears. But the moment his fingers touched Gu Xiaan, Gu Xiaan took a step back and avoided his touch. She then raised her hand and gave him a crisp slap.
Gu Xiaan's eyes, which were always twinkling with love, looked at him with disappointment this time. She said with a firm expression, "Cheng Ran, we're done."
After Gu Xiaan finished speaking, she left without looking back. Cheng Ran subconsciously wanted to chase after her, but Gu Xiaan directly stepped on her foot.
Gu Xiaan was wearing pointed high heels. When she stepped on him, Cheng Ran felt that her toes were about to be broken. She knelt on the ground in pain and could only watch Gu Xiaan leave.
Xiao Qinghe had already calculated when Gu Xiaan would come. When she saw that Cheng Ran had broken up with Gu Xiaan because of her, she wanted to be considerate and comfort him. She also wanted to show her generosity and Gu Xiaan's willfulness. But she did not expect that before she could walk over, Cheng Ran had already stood up and limped out.
The next day, Xiao Qinghe found out from the people in Cheng Ran's company that not only did Gu Xiaan break up with Cheng Ran, but he also directly resigned. This time, he was obviously serious.
She originally wanted to be a third wheel, but she did not expect to break up the two of them so quickly. Xiao Qinghe immediately started to get in touch with Cheng Ran.
Cheng Ran did not think that his breakup was Xiao Qinghe's scheme. He just thought that Gu Xiaan might be throwing a tantrum with him. He thought that after Gu Xiaan's anger subsided, he would reconcile with him.
But who knew that Gu Xiaan would directly resign the next day after breaking up with him. On the third day, he even moved out. This set of moves directly caught him off guard and made him dumbfounded.
Cheng Ran opened the door of the house that he and Gu Xiaan had lived in for more than half a year. Many of the furniture inside were picked out by Gu Xiaan at the furniture store. Every piece of furniture had the atmosphere of his and Gu Xiaan's life. But now, the mistress of the house was gone.
It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed. Cheng Ran took out his phone and called Gu Xiaan, but all his contact details were blocked by Gu Xiaan. He wanted to call Jiujiu and ask Jiujiu if she knew where Gu Xiaan was now, but he was afraid that he would be scolded by Jiujiu, so he did not call Jiujiu.
After breaking up with Gu Xiaan, Xiao Qinghe was very attentive to contacting Cheng Ran.
But Cheng Ran was immersed in the emotions of being dumped by Gu Xiaan and being heartbroken. Even if Xiao Qinghe was the white moonlight in his heart, there was still no way for Cheng Ran to walk out of his sadness. Every time he saw Xiao Qinghe's news, Cheng Ran could not help but think that if he had not been so shocked when he saw Xiao Qinghe that day, he would have seen Gu Xiaan's news and broken up with Gu Xiaan.
Cheng Ran was very clear that this matter could not be blamed on Xiao Qinghe.
But now that he was heartbroken, his girlfriend did not want him anymore. Even if he knew that Xiao Qinghe was innocent in this matter, he could not help but vent his anger on her.
Jiujiu only found out about Cheng Ran and Gu Xiaan's breakup when she returned home.
Looking at Cheng Ran, who was so haggard that his face was full of stubble because of heartbreak, Jiujiu was both angry and amused. She rudely poked Cheng Ran's head and asked, "When did this happen? Why didn't you call me?"
Cheng Ran had been scolded by his parents several times. At this moment, seeing his sister's tense face, the fear of being scolded by his parents rushed to his head again. He subconsciously shrank his neck and his voice became much softer. "I was afraid that you would be angry."
