Chapter 190

Chapter 190: 0190 has nothing to do with Gu Heng Chapter 190: 0190 has nothing to do with Gu Heng As her words fell, a brief hush descended upon the banquet hall.

All eyes landed on Su Ran and Xu Jie, with some people’s gazes starting to look a bit unnatural.

Clutching her wine glass, Su Ran’s lips curved into a slight smirk!

Two souls in accord?

What a “two souls in accord p>

“No way? Has there been any story about Su Ran and Young Master Xu of the Xu Family p>

“Who could know the matters of the heart p>

“But doesn’t Young Master Xu have a daughter? Wouldn’t Su Ran become a stepmother if she married him p>

“What’s the problem with having a daughter? It’s not a son. Besides, the Xu Family is one of the top families in Yong City, so it’s not a bad deal to marry into them p>

“Yeah! Maybe she’s willing to be a stepmother. There are plenty of women who want to marry into the Xu Family p>

Suddenly.

The way everyone looked at Su Ran began to get a bit strange.

Standing on the stage with a microphone in hand, Wen Peipei had a friendly look as she watched Su Ran.

“Xiao Ran, come up here p>

She felt a bit nervous inside, fearing that Su Ran would refuse to give her face on such an occasion.

After all, this scourge had never treated them like family.

And her character was notoriously overbearing!

Wen Peipei watched her intently, her sharp eyes narrowing slightly with a stern warning.

Su Ran raised her eyebrows, set down her wine glass, and rose to slowly walk toward the stage.

To Wen Peipei’s surprise, Su Ran’s compliance didn’t ease her mind but instead made her more wary.

She was never a person to play along.

Su Ran, since when had she become so agreeable?

Wen Peipei’s eyes followed the slowly approaching figure, with the feeling of unease growing stronger as the distance closed.

Gu Heng’s gaze also stayed on Su Ran. His hands, hanging by his sides, clenched tightly together.

The dull pain of anxiety made him want to step forward and block her path.

But for the sake of the bigger picture, he could not!

Whereas people like Gu Qiming, Deng Jingru, and Tan Lirong weren’t thinking that much. Seeing Su Ran being so cooperative, they all breathed a sigh of relief!

As long as the marriage between Su Ran and Young Master Xu was settled, it wouldn’t affect the relationship between Gu Heng and Su Xinyan.

Even if it later came out that the two had a marital agreement, the person who cheated first and wronged the relationship would be Su Ran!

It had nothing to do with Gu Heng!

On Su Xinyan’s face was an almost uncontrollable smugness. So arrogant in the Su Family, and yet she still had to obediently comply.

In this lifetime, Su Ran was fit only to be a stepping stone for her.

Arriving on the stage.

Su Ran did not stand beside Wen Peipei but took the microphone from the hands of the ceremonial girl and stood in front of the computer controlling the projection screen.

Her demeanor was casual and relaxed, her eyebrows carrying an air of languor, yet it was captivating.

Seeing this.

Wen Peipei’s face darkened. Drawing in a deep breath, she approached Su Ran, her tone stern yet tinged with a hint of a smile.

“Xiao Ran, share with everyone your affair with Young Master Xu p>

Su Ran looked up, meeting Wen Peipei’s eyes. The icy sharpness in her gaze made her feel a tremor inside.

Panic and restlessness spread through her instantly.

And then.

Su Ran’s lips curved slightly, her stunning face blooming with a glimmering smile.

She glanced around the audience and began to speak slowly.

“Me and Young Master Xu? Who is Young Master Xu p>

Her tone was filled with confusion and incomprehension.

Upon hearing this.

There was a stir among the crowd!

“No way? Su Ran actually doesn’t recognize Young Master Xu p>

“Didn’t Director Wen just say they were in mutual affection? From Su Ran’s tone, how come it sounds like she doesn’t know him p>

“But Su Ran doesn’t seem to be lying from the look of her p>
