Douluo: Qin Shimingyue system

Huo Jingshen leaned forward and happened to see Xia Ranran walking around the walkway on the first floor.

"I'm going out."

Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows and watched Huo Jingshen place the red wine glass in his hand on the tray in the waiter's hand, "Okay."

After all, it’s hard to calm down.

After a woman breaks up with herself, her life seems to be better and brighter than before.

Throughout the banquet, the spotlight shone on her, and everyone's eyes were also focused on him, making her the focus of everyone's eyes.

This had never happened during the time Xia Ranran and Huo Jingshen were together.

It was as if she had always been a pearl in the dust.

And after the dust was finally washed away by the rain, a dazzling light bloomed, attracting everyone's attention.

Huo Jingshen meandered along the corridor where Xia Ranran left.

The light in the corridor is not as bright as in the hall. Only the wall lamps on the wall emit soft light. The floor is carpeted and leather shoes make no sound when stepped on.

After walking for a while, Huo Jingshen didn't find Xia Ranran's shadow, so he planned to return the same way.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly blurred, and he saw the woman leaning on the window sill under a cluster of cold light in front of him.

The woman was half-leaning on the window sill, holding a mobile phone in one hand and touching the screen of the mobile phone with one hand. She didn't know who she was chatting with, and her red lips were raised upward.

And the fingertips of the other hand turned out to be...

Carrying a slender cigarette.

Xia Ranran learned to smoke by herself at the beach that night. When she came back, she went to buy women's cigarettes with less strong flavor.

Women's cigarettes are slender and have a light mint flavor.

Xia Ranran is scrolling through Weibo.

As expected, her news has already made headlines.

Sometimes, you don’t need to find someone special to do PR marketing, you just need to throw out a breaking news, and you don’t have to worry about those journalists and big Vs not breaking the news.

They also need traffic to attract attention.

Her ears twitched slightly and she heard footsteps coming from the other side of the corridor.

Although it was very slight, she still heard it.

Although her eyes were still on the phone screen, she looked over there from the corner of her eye.

The two had been together for more than half a year, and she could recognize him even with a shadow or a breath.

Now that she had recognized Huo Jingshen, she did not look back.

She leaned forward toward the window, raised the hand holding the cigarette slightly in the air, and a thin wisp of cigarette smoke spurted out from her mouth.

Such movements made her slender waistline and perky hips more curved.

The man had already walked up to her and snatched the cigarette butt from her hand.

Xia Ranran raised her eyebrows and looked at him, as if she just saw his presence at this moment, and smiled slightly.

"Mr. Huo, do you want to come here to lend a hand?"

Huo Jingshen saw Xia Ranran's frivolous smile, and the smile seemed to seep out of her eyes. He threw the cigarette butt directly into the trash can nearby and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"When did you learn to smoke?"

Xia Ranran really held her chin and thought for a while, "Yesterday? No, it was two days ago, the night when I came out of your Huo family mansion. Hey, that day seems like yesterday."

"Who taught you?"

Xia Ranran could tell that there was a questioning tone in Huo Jingshen's words.

She turned around and leaned her back against the window sill, "Who taught me this? Of course it was a handsome man."

She observed Huo Jingshen's pupils.

In the dark pupils, a turbulent wave seemed to sweep through in a short period of time, but it only took a few seconds before it returned to normal.

He looked at her quietly, "Why do you want to learn to smoke?"

"Because... you're interested?" Xia Ranran seemed to be talking to herself.

Huo Jingshen said coldly: "Don't say that you got drunk to drown your sorrows or smoked to relieve stress? Xia Ranran, are you asking me to get back together in a self-destructive way?"

The remaining warmth in Xia Ranran's body quickly receded within a few seconds.

The pain at the tip of her heart could not be suppressed, as if a fine needlepoint was piercing the softest part of her heart, causing her to gasp in pain.

The expression on her face didn't change at all.

"Mr. Huo is really being self-indulgent," Xia Ranran said coldly, "I drink and smoke. Do you think I'm degenerating? I just... have grown up. I know that this society will not always be an ivory tower. Men can do what they want." I can also do it.”

Xia Ranran stopped leaning on the railing and stood up straight.

She was wearing a pair of seven-centimeter high heels. Even so, standing straight in front of Huo Jingshen, she still had to lift her chin, as if looking up.

She came here on purpose to smoke.

She originally wanted to create a sentimental look in front of Huo Jingshen and show weakness to him.

Even if they have been together and had skin-to-skin contact, even if they break up, the man will definitely think of her good in his heart.

She wanted to show weakness so that the Huo family would give up their plan to take Xia Duoduo back.

However, when she saw Huo Jingshen and heard Huo Jingshen's words, she suddenly didn't want to think about it anymore.

Why should she show weakness?

After all, it’s hard to calm down.

Xia Ranran closed her eyes, and when she turned around, she said something very calm.

"I won't let go of my child."

Huo Jingshen didn't stop him this time and just watched Xia Ranran leave.

Her back was so straight, even in such a dimly lit corridor, she still had the feeling of being swaying and attracting everyone's attention.

He suddenly discovered that after she left him, the sentiments of his little daughter no longer existed.

When she was around him, he felt that she was a flower that needed to be protected, needed his care, and needed him to withstand the wind and rain for her.

But she never thought that one day, standing on the opposite side, she would be able to hold up all the wind and rain alone.

And part of this wind and rain was brought about by him.

Huo Jingshen glanced at the cigarette butts thrown above the trash can again, turned around, and left in the opposite direction to Xia Ranran.

…………

At a banquet, Xia Ranran drank a lot of wine.

But she doesn't just drink the wine that is handed to her.

She would also choose the best, and then when drinking, she would raise her hand and put a tissue on her chin, and when she raised her head, she would soak some of it out with the tissue.

In this way, the amount of alcohol she had developed after these three days was barely enough.

During the reception, Xia Ranran unexpectedly saw someone.

A best friend I haven't seen in a long time...

If she still thinks so.

Jing Huan wore a black dress and walked towards Xia Ranran with a glass of champagne.

"Ran Ran, long time no see."

It’s been a really long time.

It had been several months since Xia Ranran and Fang Songqi discovered that Jing Huan's fiancé was cheating and keeping a female student.

In the past few months, too many things had happened, and there was another infectious disease outbreak that needed to be faced, which made her even more unable to take care of this former best friend.

"How are you doing lately?" Jing Huan asked.

Xia Ranran smiled and said, "Not bad, how about you?"

She avoided answering questions about her relationship with Huo Jingshen.
