old love revisited

Chapter 97 Parting (1)
At the moment when the work was over, Qu Ranran was lying limply, Guan Hao immediately turned over and got out of bed, and quickly put on his clothes.

Qu Ranran stared blankly at the ceiling, the quilt was messily covering her body, not even covering her bare shoulders.

Guan Haowu picked up the phone and pressed the call button, "Come and pick me up."

There was only a sound of closing the door with a "bang", and there was only endless silence in the bedroom.

The breath of lust gradually dissipated, and Qu Ranran's clear eyes looking at the ceiling gradually blurred...

The picture of Fang Gang played back in his mind.

He plundered mercilessly, just like she was a thoughtless rag doll, let him slaughter...

No matter how much she resisted, he never stopped for a moment.

She scratched his back with shocking scars, and he carried out what he said thoroughly.

For more than a year, this is the first time she has felt such anger from him...

She could even feel his intense disgust when he moved on her.

Even if he angered him again, he never gave her such a feeling. Tonight, he finally completely destroyed her hesitation in the past seven years.

Actually, that's fine too...

There will be no room for redemption, and there will be no more entanglements...

Closing her scorching eyes tiredly, she hoped that when she opened her eyes tomorrow, her world would be clean again, and his figure could be completely swept away from her life.

……

Outside the gate of the villa, Zou Ji had already gotten out of the car and opened the door.

Guan Hao sat in the carriage with a cold face.

Zou Ji hurried into the car, and from the rearview mirror, he saw Guan Hao rubbing his brows tiredly.

"boss……"

It was rare to see Guan Hao showing such a tired side, Zou Ji couldn't help worrying.

Guan Hao didn't knead his eyebrows anymore, but closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, his tone hoarse due to the influence of emotion, "Let's go!"

Zou Ji asked cautiously, "Going to Manhattan?"

Manhattan is the center of New York, where the "Haotian" Group stands.

Guan Hao said lightly, "Queens."

Hearing the word Queens, Zou Ji was slightly startled, and then started the engine.

While Joss was in a drowsy sleep, she heard someone ring the doorbell.

To drive away the drowsiness, she casually put on a pajamas, got up and opened the door.

Since she came to New York, she has been staying at her brother's house. Because he is a doctor, he often stays in the hospital, and occasionally comes back to live. He is usually on duty until midnight. She thought it would be her brother, But she never thought that the moment she opened the door, standing in front of her was the handsome figure she had been longing for for a long time.

"Guan... Guan Hao?"

Joss, who had completely woken up, stuttered because of joy.

"Take me in?"

"certainly!!"

Joss quickly opened the door wide.

Guan Hao walked in, Joss happily closed the door and followed Guan Hao's pace.

Guan Hao walked into the room and lay down on the bed.

Seeing Guan Hao's tired appearance, Qiao Si sat on the edge of the bed and couldn't help asking, "Is it because you are too tired from work these days?"

Guan Hao closed his eyes and did not answer.

Qiao Si didn't ask any more questions, she pulled the quilt for Guan Hao, and was going to put the bath water for Guan Hao later, but at the moment she covered Guan Hao with the quilt, her nose inadvertently smelled the smell on Guan Hao's body. Lightly feminine fragrance.

She could recognize that this fragrance belonged to Qu Ranran... She could often smell it on him.

If he was still with Qu Ranran just a moment ago, but chose to come to her at this moment, it means...

Joss has always been a smart person, knowing that no matter how many questions she has at this time, it is not appropriate to blurt them out, so she chose to be nonchalant and asked him softly, "Take a bath?"

Guan Hao responded lightly, "En."

Joss got up immediately and walked into the bathroom.

……

In the morning, the first ray of sunlight falls indoors.

Qiao Si woke up next to Guan Hao, and the first second she woke up, she looked to her side.

She was glad that last night was not a dream, and he was really by her side...

Joss turned sideways and began to quietly stare at his sleeping face.

She rarely had the opportunity to look at him so closely...

Did he know that, in fact, they didn't meet through Guan's mother's introduction a year ago, she had known him as early as when she was 16 years old.

It's just that he may have forgotten...

At that time, he was 28 years old and already a well-known figure in the business world.

She remembered that at that time she followed her uncle to attend an important banquet whose name she had forgotten, and he was also at the banquet. As soon as he appeared, he was already the focus of the audience, surrounded by all the flatterers, he was like a The king is surrounded by everyone.

She stared at him for a moment through the crowd, and that was the first time she felt what it means to be a girl's throbbing.

The men all around were discussing his achievements, while the women all showed a nympho...

Since she was a child, she was aloof and had never been attracted to any man, but the moment she saw him, her eyes could no longer be taken away from him.

Handsome appearance, self-confidence and dignity, superior mind, proud business empire...

Surrounding him are all the top-level words that men want most. He doesn't need to deliberately create them at all, and people can use these words to praise him.

She never knew that there really is such a perfect and excellent man in this world, he is a figure who exists like a god...

Afterwards, the uncle took her up to him and greeted him...

When she followed him closely, her heart was so nervous that it almost jumped out.

No one would know her heart throbbing for him. He just praised "she is very beautiful" to his uncle politely, but it made her as sweet as sipping honey.

After the banquet, even though she didn't see him again, she could still clearly recall his nice magnetic voice when he spoke.

Later, she kept looking for opportunities to meet him, but before she had time to meet him, he had already announced their marriage...

When she saw the news of his marriage in the newspaper, she felt that her world collapsed in an instant, and she was sick for half a year because of this...

Later, I heard that he was divorced, but he still had a girlfriend surnamed Qin by his side.

She has been silently paying attention to his news, longing for God to give her a chance to meet him, and the heaven pays off. At a charity auction banquet, she actually met his mother...

She admitted that she was trying to please her and cater to her, and that's how she got Guan's mother's love...

She never thought that one day, Mother Guan said that she would introduce her to him...

She still remembers the ecstasy of that moment, and what surprised her even more was that after she met him, they started dating.

She threw herself into their relationship despite knowing that he seemed to have an inexplicable indifference to her.

It wasn't until the wedding between him and her was destroyed because of his ex-wife's childbirth incident that she realized that she had been deceiving herself all along, that his heart was only on his ex-wife from the beginning to the end...

Recalling these, she still feels sad, but she will not shrink back because there is no woman in this world who is more suitable for him than her.

She lightly kissed him on the forehead, and then she got up and got out of bed.

……

When Guan Hao came out of the room, he saw Qiao Si coming out of the kitchen with the cooked breakfast.

Seeing Guan Hao, Qiao Si smiled as always, "Good morning."

Guan Hao glanced at Qiao Si and was about to leave her apartment, but she stopped him in time.

"I've already made breakfast for you, you can leave after eating!"

"I'm not in the habit of eating breakfast."

"That's not acceptable. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You work very hard every day, so you can't do without it!" As she spoke, Qiao Si pulled Guan Hao and walked straight to the dining table.

Joss's cooking skills are superb, and she can already smell the fragrant breakfast before she even walks to the dining table.

Joss pulled Guan Hao and sat down at the dining table, "I know you don't like toast, so I specially made you a Chinese breakfast...I have boiled this porridge for a long time, it is good for your stomach, you Try it, it must taste good."

Guan Hao glanced at the porridge in front of him.

Joss sat down opposite Guan Hao, and begged, "Try it, I've been through it for a long time."

Guan Hao finally picked up the spoon and took a sip.

Joss asked expectantly, "Is it delicious?"

Guan Hao didn't answer Qiao Si, but told her the answer by continuing to drink porridge.

Although Guan Hao didn't speak, seeing him eat the porridge she cooked made Qiao Si feel sweet...

However, this kind of happiness didn't last for a few seconds, but Guan Hao's cell phone rang at an untimely moment.

Guan Hao immediately put down the spoon and took out his phone.

The number displayed on the screen is the number of the new villa...

Guan Hao got up and pressed the answer button, "What's the matter?"

On the other end of the phone was the respectful voice of the villa servant, "Mr. Guan, I just saw Miss Qu packing up her things in the room. Miss Qu has always wanted to leave the villa. I'm afraid we won't be able to stop her, and the bodyguards don't dare to treat Qu rudely." Miss, so... Mr. Guan, can you come back?"

"I see."

After finishing the call, Guan Hao turned around and walked towards the door.

Qiao Si almost guessed with a woman's sixth sense that the call Guan Hao received at the moment was related to Qu Ranran, but she didn't ask, but stopped him, "Wait a minute." Walk into the room as quickly as possible.

After a few seconds, Joss finally came out of the room in a hurry, with his suit jacket in hand.

"You forgot your coat."

Handing the coat to Guan Hao, Qiao Si always spoke in a gentle tone.

Guan Hao didn't speak, took the coat and left.

"Mr. Guan, Miss Qu is in the room."

Seeing the master came back, all the servants and bodyguards in the villa breathed a sigh of relief.

Guan Hao didn't go to the second floor immediately, but sat down on the sofa in the living room.

The servants didn't dare to disturb, and left space and time for Guan Hao after stepping back.

Guan Hao thought for a moment, and suddenly, he commanded the servant who retreated to the side, "Bring Yu An here."

"Yes."

After a while, the servant's embarrassed voice came, "Mr. Guan, Ms. Qu..."

Hearing the voice, Guan Hao looked over.

At this moment, Qu Ranran walked down from the second floor with Yu An in her arms, and she stared at Guan Hao as if on guard.

"You step back!"

Guan Hao said to the servant.

The servant left immediately.

In the huge hall, only Qu Ranran and Guan Hao were left.

Qu Ranran hugged the sleeping Yu An tightly, as if she was afraid of approaching him. She stopped on the stairs and said coldly, "Are you trying to use Yu An to threaten me again?"

"What do you think?" Guan Hao replied lightly.

Qu Ranran frowned in displeasure, "Guan Hao, can you stop using such despicable means to make people submit? Children are not victims between us. No matter what happens to us adults, children should not be affected. Why can't we give our children a peaceful and comfortable life?"

Guan Hao's voice was still calm and without any emotion, "Without me, can you live a peaceful and comfortable life?"

"Yes, without you, both Yu'an and I can live a better life."

Qu Ranran's words made Guan Hao silent.

Qu Ranran continued, "Guan Hao, why do you want to make us all unhappy? Do you really feel better if you force yourself to be with me?"

Guan Hao narrowed his eyes and looked at Qu Ranran, his tone was still calm, "Do you really want to leave?"

Qu Ranran nodded vigorously, "Yes."

Guan Hao also nodded, as if after some thinking, he said after a few seconds, "Okay, you just need to answer one question for me, I am satisfied, and I will let you go."

"You said."

"Do you still have me in your heart?"

Never thought that he would ask such a straightforward question, Qu Ranran was slightly taken aback.

"Speak." Guan Hao didn't give her time to think, and asked her to answer directly.

If it was Qu Ranran in the past, she might have hesitated on this issue, but at this moment, all that passed through Qu Ranran's mind were his hypocritical behavior and cruel methods, so she naturally spit out , "No, you should know that I stayed in New York because Joss lied to me. I didn't do it for you at all. Even if I was moved for a moment when you confessed to me, with Joss pregnant, the cause of my father's death was confirmed. Reveal that the last bit of infatuation I have for you has been completely destroyed by you."

Hearing what Qu Ranran said, Guan Hao got up at this moment and walked towards Qu Ranran.

Qu Ranran has always been afraid of Guan Hao in her bones. Seeing him approaching without emotion, she couldn't figure out his thoughts and she panicked. She backed away, "What do you want to do?"

Guan Hao kept pushing Qu Ranran until she leaned against the handrail of the stairs behind her.

The two are very close at hand at this moment, and he stood in front of her, his handsome face showed no emotion at all, his eyes squinted on her slightly pale face, and he escaped in a low voice, "Ran Ran, if there is no matter about Joss , and it has nothing to do with your father, at this moment, will you choose to be with me?"

"will not."

Qu Ranran spit it out directly.

Guan Hao stared intently at Qu Ranran's pretty face, and his voice became lower, "Why?"

"Because when I loved you so much, what you gave me was teasing, contempt, and unbearable. Guan Hao, have you ever thought that since the day we met, you have never given me the slightest sense of security, You always play with my feelings recklessly, and time and time again let me reap the pain when I am full of longing to be with you. You have never taken feelings seriously, or you have never thought about taking me seriously. However, this I can't blame you, after all, I have always cared about you more than you cared about me, so you can use and hurt me again and again, but you never thought that the broken heart can be mended, but the crack I will always be there, even if you don't want to be with me today because you want to win Ji Lingtian, I will never be able to love you as purely as before... This is why you said that I have changed, yes , I have changed, in fact, I just no longer love you."

Since you want to make it clear, then tell him all the things in her heart!

She finished speaking these words from the bottom of her heart in one breath, but after she finished speaking, her heart still felt as good as she imagined, as if she was being grabbed by someone, a little painful.

Suddenly, Guan Hao sighed deeply and let go of Qu Ranran.

Suddenly losing his confinement, Qu Ranran's tense body slowly relaxed.

Guan Hao looked at Qu Ranran, and said slowly, "Ranran, have I told you, in fact, it has always been a very extravagant idea for me to have you."

Qu Ranran's eyes froze.

"We have been married for two years. Every time I feel that I am attracted to you, I remind myself that I must leave you. Therefore, I have left T city in the name of business trips to avoid you again and again, and separated For four years, I haven’t been looking for you because I know that even if I find you, I can’t give you anything.” Speaking of this, Guan Hao smiled sadly, “But nothing in this world can Following people's wishes, I stay away from you, but you appear in my world again and again. I use you to attract my elder brother, but who knows, I am also using that short time to satisfy me The longing for you...every night with you, when I see you sleeping soundly in my arms, I always think, if only this time could be longer."

The tone of his speech at this moment was a touch of sadness that she had never heard before.She thought that a bloodless person like him would never have such sad emotions in his life.

"Ran Ran, actually, do you know that from the beginning to the end, I am very clear that no matter how hard you and I try, even if you and I can love each other, we cannot have a happy ending...but I want to go Violating, trying to keep you by my side forever, it just proves that all the endings in this world are already predestined, and even I can't change it."

Qu Ranran shook her head, not knowing why.

Why did he say that it was impossible for them to have a happy ending from the beginning to the end?

When two people are together, if they both like each other, what difficulties are there that cannot be overcome?

The only reason why they can't be together is that they don't love each other. He is simply making excuses for what he did.

"You may not be able to understand what I'm telling you now, but you will naturally understand later. I just want to remind you, Ran Ran, that there are more darkness in this world besides the darkness I entrusted to you. You can't see that many things and people are never as simple as you imagined, and I was not born so dark..."

Why she couldn't understand what he said today, but there was an inexplicable sadness.

"Ran Ran, in this life, when we met each other, it was an episode. You have your own path, and I have my own path. I really hope that in the days to come, you can find someone who can truly give you love. You happy people."

What does he mean by that?
Does the implication mean that he is going to let her go?
Qu Ranran was puzzled, but the inexplicable sadness piled up in her chest more and more, making her unable to catch her breath.

"When do you want to leave?" Guan Hao asked suddenly after adjusting his mood and returning to his usual indifference.

That sad feeling was like a vortex that swept her deeper and deeper, but when she suddenly heard his temperatureless voice, she seemed to be released in an instant and returned to reality.

Qu Ranran looked at Guan Hao calmly, and replied, "Right now."

Guan Hao asked again, "Have you thought about where to go?"

Qu Ranran replied truthfully, "Go back to Alton."

Guan Hao said suddenly, "Go back to City T!"

Qu Ranran hesitated in place.

Guan Hao added, "Alton is a foreign country after all, T City is where you grew up."

Qu Ranran fell silent.

Why doesn't she want to go back to T city?
However, she has nothing in T City...

In Alton, at least her sister's house is there, and the comfort of that small town is also the living environment she longs for.

However, no matter how good Alton was, the place she really wanted to stay was still City Y.

A person with a child in a foreign country, that kind of feeling, imagining the past is a bleak picture.

Guan Hao saw the true longing in Qu Ranran's heart, and said directly, "I'll send someone to take you back to T City."

Qu Ranran shook her head almost immediately, "I won't go back to T city, I don't have money, I don't want to go back."

Guan Hao promised to spit out, "I will arrange your life well."

"I don't want it!" Qu Ranran said resolutely, "I don't need your help, nor your sympathy. When I signed the agreement with you, I promised that I would use my ability to lead Yu'an."

Guan Hao frowned, "Why do you insist on this issue?"

Qu Ranran mocked in a polite tone, "That's because you will never understand how important dignity is in a person's heart."
