"You are right. Our relationship as husband and wife ended six years ago. Don't worry, no one will ever associate you with the Jun family again."
"Thanks."
What she got was an answer that was so unfamiliar to Ji Ran. After thanking her, she walked away.
Everything seemed so natural. She was holding the child in her arms who was supposed to be the young master of the Jun family. He was supposed to be the grandson of Zhang Zi of the Jun family. Now he had no name and no status. Her heart felt stronger than usual.
It hurts a little.
After Ji Ran left, this luxurious palace-like guest room seemed extremely empty and depressing.
"Damn it."
A low curse came out of Jun Yucheng's mouth angrily, and he punched the wall next to him with a heavy punch, making a dull sound.
"What?! You want to go back to the United States?!!"
The Ji family and Zhuo Ruinian looked at Ji Ran's expression that didn't look like a joke at all in disbelief, and their eyes widened.
"Um."
Ji Ran nodded, not intending to hide anything from Zhuo Ruinian.
But similarly, she didn't notice the disappointment that flashed across Zhuo Ruinian's eyes when she said she wanted to go back to the United States.
"Then...why are you coming back?"
He suppressed the uncomfortable feeling of loss in his heart and asked again.
Ji Ran twitched the corners of his lips, shrugged his shoulders casually, and said with a smile: "I don't know, maybe... I won't come back."
She seemed very relaxed when she spoke.
In fact, for her, there is no big difference between domestic and foreign countries.
Her family members have all left this world, and she is left alone wherever she goes.
Six years ago, she thought that there was still a family in her life. She thought that her life would not continue to be lonely.
However, that person knocked her straight to hell.
Here, all that can be left for her are memories of despair, and there is nothing to linger on.
Perhaps it was an extremely wrong decision from the beginning when he promised Rui Nian to come back from the United States.
But now, it may not be too late to correct this mistake.
"Not coming back?"
Zhuo Ruinian felt his heart tremble slightly, as if something was suddenly lost, which was quite uncomfortable.
He looked at Ji Ran's seemingly relieved but still melancholy eyes, and suddenly his face sank.
"Xiaoran."
His voice suddenly turned serious, and his eyes hidden by the lenses narrowed.
Ji Ran raised her eyes, and the lens concealed the jealousy and loss in Zhuo Ruinian's eyes. She saw Zhuo Ruinian looking at her seriously, and through the lens, there was some solemn expression that made Ji Ran feel guilty.
Zhuo Ruinian reached out and turned Ji Ran's body towards him, making her look directly into his eyes and said:
"Tell me honestly, was it because of Jun Yucheng that you suddenly decided to return to the United States?"
His eyes were locked on Ji Ran's dark eyes, leaving no room for her to avoid him.
When Ji Ran heard him ask this question, his eyelids trembled slightly, and his eyes showed a bit of guilt.
Her eyes moved, and she was silent for a moment. She had no intention of denying it in front of Zhuo Ruinian. She nodded to him, then sighed softly.
Turning her back to Zhuo Ruinian, her back showed a bit of sadness, and her eyes were looking into the distance through the window, as if she was remembering something.
Under her eyelashes, she concealed the sadness hidden in her eyes.
