The chosen one was originally Ran Yingqian, but Ran Yingqian knew that Gu Beichuan had a family hereditary disease and wouldn’t live long, so she didn’t want to marry him. Hence, your father went to great lengths to find you and wanted you to marry in place of your sister. Gu Beichuan has now decided on you. Frankly speaking, Miss Ran, I’m afraid it won’t be easy for you to live a simple life in the future."
"You investigated me?" Ran Xiangsi turned to look at Xing Chen, suppressing the bitterness in her heart and averting her gaze.
She already knew that someone like Ran Zhonghai wouldn’t suddenly be kind enough to arrange a good marriage for her. The source of this content ɪs ɴoᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt
So, it turned out to be to make her a scapegoat.
Ran Zhonghai, you’re really ruthless... whether it was fourteen years ago or now.
"A background check is just a routine procedure before deciding to marry you," Xing Chen explained indifferently, not feeling that there was anything wrong with it, as if this was his usual way of handling things.
Hearing this, Ran Xiangsi fell silent.
Whether she was investigated or not, she didn’t care.
What she cared about now was why the man she should call father had to make things so extreme.
If they couldn’t be father and daughter, did he have to push her into the fire pit?
Is there really such a heartless father in the world?
Seeing Ran Xiangsi remain silent for a long time, her beautiful eyes unfocused, Xing Chen frowned as well.
"You probably don’t want to marry Gu Beichuan either, but you can’t refuse your father’s words." He spoke up, analyzing the current situation for her.
Ran Xiangsi finally came to her senses, her voice dropping thirty degrees suddenly! "If I don’t want to, what’s he going to do to me?"
It’s the 21st century, marriage freedom. This isn’t ancient times where marriage was dictated by parents and matchmakers. She’s not afraid of whatever marriage Ran Zhonghai talks about!
Xing Chen nodded slightly, indicating that Ran Xiangsi was right.
Soon, however, he pointed out with a faint smile, "Miss Ran, I’m afraid you’ve forgotten the Gu Family’s influence in A City and just how ruthless your father is. I believe you already have a conclusion in your heart. This matter is not something that can be simply dismissed just because you say you don’t want to."
Such a simple truth, Xing Chen saw it at a glance, and there was no way Ran Xiangsi couldn’t see it.
Biting her lip lightly, Ran Xiangsi’s hands, resting on her legs, slowly clenched.
Ran Zhonghai now knew her whereabouts, and to protect Ran Yingqian, he would definitely find all sorts of ways to marry her into the Gu Family.
And the things Gu Beichuan said at school today also made her have to be on guard.
If the two families joined forces to deal with Ran Xiangsi, there would be a thousand ways to do it.
Ran Xiangsi’s speechlessness again was something Xing Chen had anticipated.
Originally, he thought it might take a little effort to get this little girl to sign the marriage contract obediently.
Who knew that the sudden appearance of Ran Zhonghai and his family would instantly put Ran Xiangsi in a dire situation.
And this predicament, she couldn’t escape from on her own.
And just at this moment, Xing Chen’s contract arrived.
In the dark, it seems someone has arranged everything.
Xing Chen leaned back deeply on the sofa, his long legs crossed, and his pitch-black eyes never left Ran Xiangsi for a second.
"Sign the contract, and I will protect you completely."
His deep, magnetic voice came through, with a tempting undertone, gripping Ran Xiangsi’s heart immediately.
