Chapter 274: Prepare an Escape Route

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Although Chu Ruoruo had woken up, they waere not sure if she was alright after falling from such a high alt.i.tude. Ye Qingran and Chu Yan sent her to the hospital for a full body check-up. They only brought her home after confirming that she was alright.

However, Chu Ruoruo’s life was hanging by a thread today, which had left a huge psychological trauma on her.

She had a slight fever, and she did not dare to sleep alone. Every time she closed her eyes, she would think of herself, the scene of being pushed down by someone, and the scene of herself struggling and suffocating in the water.

Ye Qingran had been accompanying her and taking care of her.

It was very late at night, and Chu Ruoruo had finally fallen asleep. Ye Qingran was also shocked today. She was tired and sleepy, so she lay down beside Chu Ruoruo and fell asleep immediately.

The room was still lit up with a gentle light. Chu Yan gently pushed the door open and walked to the bedside.

He glanced at Ye Qingran and Chu Ruoruo on the bed. The two of them looked calm in their sleep, but there seemed to be a faint sadness in their pursed lips.

Chu Yan frowned slightly.

He reached out his hand and was about to turn off the bedside lamp.

However, just as his hand reached the switch, Ye Qingran slowly woke up and mumbled in a daze, “When did I fall asleep?”

She sat up from the bed and turned her head to look at Chu Ruoruo beside her. Then, she slowly got up to avoid waking her up.

Chu Yan waited for her to get up, then turned off the lights and left the room together with her hand.

“Today, it’s all thanks to you.” His fingers gently stroked the back of her hand.

If it wasn’t for Ye Qingran, he really didn’t dare to think about what would have happened to Chu Ruoruo. At that time, it was raining so heavily, and Chu Ruoruo didn’t know how to swim.

He did not know how long she would have to wait for others to discover her.

However, Ye Qingran was very apologetic. “Actually, I’m the one who implicated Ruoruo.”

Chu Yan only knew a rough outline of what had happened today, but he was not clear about the details. She had been holding on and did not want to sleep all this while just so that she could tell him the event in detail.

After listening to Ye Qingran, Chu Yan’s expression became even colder.

Ye Qingran’s gaze was as cold as water, she continued, “Although Ruoruo said that Mu Qingxue pushed her down because of an argument, she probably did not expect that she would push her down the river directly. After that, she ran away because she was afraid. However, I feel that what she said was wrong. Ruoruo thinks too kindly of people, Mu Qingxue and Ruoruo’s argument, and that fit of anger that followed, is just a smokescreen.”

As soon as Chu Yan heard her, he knew the real reason. “It’s because Ruoruo saw her holding a gift box and flowers.”

“Although I didn’t see the pattern of the gift box and flowers, I guess that the gift box and flowers should be the same as the gift box and flowers I received.” The person who hara.s.sed her was Mu Qingxue.

When the hara.s.sment incident happened, she thought that Mu Qingxue was in Jiang City’s prison. Even after she knew that she had left, she was still missing.

Therefore, even though she was suspicious, she subconsciously thought that the other people were more likely to not have been involved.

However, she didn’t expect that she, the supporting actress, couldn’t escape from the female protagonist in the end! !

Chu Yan had found some clues last time. He was almost certain that the person who hara.s.sed Ye Qingran was Mu Qingxue.

He did not tell Mu Qingxue, but was waiting for her to act again. The evidence would then be taken directly to the police to have her arrested.

However, he did not expect that she would be so ruthless that she would kill to cover it up.

“It’s her fault.” Chu Yan’s eyes darkened and a cold killing intent flashed across them.

He did not want Ye Qingran to feel guilty and blame herself for what happened to Ruoruo today.

After a moment of silence, Ye Qingran said, “There are some things that I don’t know how to tell you. If it weren’t for me, you and Ruoruo wouldn’t have had any contact with Mu Qingxue.”

Chu Yan saw the deep look in her eyes and did not know what she was thinking about. He frowned in confusion and raised his hand to touch her face. “It’s because I didn’t protect you well that she took advantage of the loopholes time and again.”

Ye Qingran curled her lips and smiled faintly. “It can’t be helped. She has a halo, so no matter how much we try to prevent it, it’s useless.”

Chu Yan asked, “What halo?”

Ye Qingran was stunned for a moment, then, she smiled and said, “I’m just making an a.n.a.logy. Have you read a novel? The main character of a novel is the center of the novel world. Everything in this world exists because of her. This is the halo. I just feel that this Mu Qingxue is very similar to the female protagonist in a novel, while I am a supporting actress. My existence is to bring out the beauty, kindness, and courage of the female protagonist. I want her to step on me and make the plot more exciting.”

Chu Yan still did not say anything. He stared into her eyes, as deep as if there were no emotions to be seen.

“When everyone reads novels, they will always curse at the hateful female supporting character for not going away. However, the fate of the female protagonist and the female supporting character are connected in the story. There is always a strange fate that pulls them together.”

After a moment of silence, she said the last sentence, “So, stay far away from the female protagonist and the female supporting character. Then, nothing will happen.”

His eyes gradually turned cold and his expression was unpredictable. He reached out and hugged her. “Don’t think too much. It’s just Mu Qingxue.”

Ye Qingran:”…”

However, this Mu Qingxue was not an ordinary person. She was the female protagonist and the center of this world.

–

On the other side, Mu Qingxue was still a little scared after she pushed someone.

Especially when she saw that Chu Ruoruo was fine. However, if Ruoruo was fine, then it was just an accident. Even if they called the police, they would not be able to do anything to her.

However, this way…

Mu Qingxue turned her head and looked at the gift boxes and flowers beside her.

It seemed that she could not hide it anymore! !

If Chu Ruoruo told Ye Qingran everything, Ye Qingran would definitely know that she was the one who gave her the gift boxes and flowers in the past.

Forget it. At most, she would not give her any more gifts in the future.

As long as she did not give her any more gifts, Ye Qingran would not be able to find any evidence to prove that she was the one who did everything. After a long time, no one would hara.s.s Ye Qingran anymore. Once the case was dismissed, the matter would be completely over.

And in the future, when the Yan family fell from power and Chu Yan no longer had the Yan family as a big backer and could not be a threat, she would not have to care about anything else.

At that time, she would have plenty of ways to make Ye Qingran feel fear, suffering, and pain.

Mu Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief and calmed herself down.

In her previous life, Su Tianhang had almost won. Long Junyao, Su Yian, and the other three could not even defeat Su Tianhang. If it were not for her help in the end, taking advantage of Su Tianhang’s love for her, Long Junyao and the other three would not have won.

Now, she stood by Su Tianhang’s side and used her advantage as a prophet to help Su Tianhang. Not to mention Long Junyao and the other three, even the Yan family in the capital city, including Chu Yan, were no match for Su Tianhang.

However, the memories of her previous life also made her understand that men were not reliable.

She was not sure whether Su Tianhang would one day be like Long Junyao and abandon her mercilessly.

So she had to plan for herself and prepare for another way out.
