Out of control and sinking

When Jiang Ruan arrived, Lu Jie was being harassed. She was clearly drunk, and a middle-aged man was trying to take advantage of her while she was intoxicated.

But Lu Jie refused, already somewhat embarrassed and angry: "Get out, stay away from me."

The man reached out and tried to touch Lu Jie again.

"Lu Jie!" Jiang Ruan frowned, rushed over, and protectively asked Lu Jie, "Who are you?"

"Who am I? I'm her boyfriend, of course."

Jiang Ruan sneered: "Boyfriend? You think you're worthy?"

"You're old enough to be her father, have some shame, uncle."

"Don't you fucking meddle in other people's business, or I'll take you down with me..."

As the man spoke, he noticed that Jiang Ruan was even prettier and reached out to touch her, but before he could, he hadn't managed to.

He was then grabbed by a hand with distinct bones.

The force was exceptionally strong, causing the man to grimace in pain. He looked up and saw Bo Ye's cold and ruthless face.

"Who the hell are you? Let me go!"

Bo Ye said coldly, "Get lost if you don't want to die."

Anyone can touch them.

court death.

He almost broke my wrist.

Judging from his suit and his extraordinary demeanor, he was clearly no ordinary person.

The middle-aged man realized that the three knew each other and knew that he wouldn't get anything good out of this place.

They could only slink away in disgrace.

Seeing that he had left, Jiang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief and looked down at Lu Jie in her arms. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were red and swollen, clearly indicating that she had just been crying.

Several bottles of liquor were also on the table.

Jiang Ruan sighed, "No matter how upset you are, you shouldn't drink so much."

"Come on, I'll take you back."

Seeing Jiang Ruan's face vaguely, Lu Jie's suppressed emotions broke down again, and she hugged Jiang Ruan's waist and started crying.

“Waaaaah Jiang Ruan waaaah…”

Lu Jie cried uncontrollably.

Over the years, Jiang Ruan had rarely seen her cry.

Seeing her cry like this, Jiang Ruan felt genuinely sorry for her. She gently patted Lu Jie's head and said, "I know you're upset. Okay, stop crying. He's just a man. We can find someone better. Let's not talk about him anymore, okay?"

Lu Jie didn't respond, she just kept crying.

Bo Ye watched coldly from the side, watching as Lu Jie wiped all her tears onto Jiang Ruan's clothes.

"..."

Ok.

I can't keep this dress.

Lu Jie cried for a long time before she felt a little better after venting her emotions.

It was so late, and Jiang Ruan was worried about taking her home alone.

So Bo Ye helped her into the car and they went back to the villa together.

On the way, Lu Jie couldn't help but vomit.

Jiang Ruan had anticipated this, so she simply placed the trash can next to her legs, and she vomited into the trash can.

Bo Ye's car wasn't dirty.

But the smell inside the car was unpleasant.

Jiang Ruan patted Lu Jie's back and secretly glanced at the man's expression in front of her. He must be angry, right?
Bo Ye has a severe case of mysophobia.

But he had his back to her, so she couldn't see him.

Upon arriving at the villa, Jiang Ruan and the maid helped Lu Jie to the guest room, but Bo Ye did not follow.

Lu Jie leaned back on the sofa, tears welling in her eyes, still heartbroken. She choked back sobs, "How could he treat me like this? Haven't I been good to him? I cook for him, I do his laundry, why does he never even notice me?"

“You know Jiang Ruan, since we got together, I’ve always been the one texting and calling him, I’ve always been the one initiating contact. He’s never contacted me first.”

“He didn’t spend the holidays with me. Whenever I contacted him, he would say he was busy or that he had to be with clients.”

Lu Jie cried for a while, then laughed: "It's like no one in the world is busier than him, he's never free 24 hours a day."

Jiang Ruan felt sorry for her as she listened.

She sat down next to Lu Jie and took Lu Jie's hand: "He just doesn't love you. If he loved you even a little bit, he wouldn't treat you like this."

"The claim that you're too busy is a lie."

"I know," Lu Jie said, her eyes glistening with tears, her cheeks flushed, but her lips were pale, making her look incredibly pitiful. "Of course I know he doesn't love me."

Tears streamed down her face, but Lu Jie proudly raised her hand to wipe them away: "From the moment we got together, I knew he didn't love me. He was with Jiang Lina for four years and lived with her for three. What didn't they do together? How could he possibly forget her?"

"But I'm just a masochist, I just can't help loving him."

Lu Jie cried, "What can I do? I can't control myself. I just want to find him."

"Whenever I have free time, I want to text him, call him, and find out what he's doing."

Jiang Ruan listened to her venting, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Seeing her crying so hard, Jiang Ruan reached out and took the tissues from the table, pulled out two, and wiped away her tears.

"Don't cry, calm yourself down first."

She didn't know what to say to comfort her.

When it comes to feelings, one is never in control of their own destiny.

Lu Jie has liked Shen Lu for so many years.

How could I just let it go like that?

Lu Jie cried her heart out for almost an hour.

Her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

Only then did I finally calm down.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Jiang Ruan asked her, "What do you mean by saying that Shen Lu doesn't want you anymore? Has he rekindled his old flame with his ex-girlfriend?"

It would have been better if this matter hadn't been brought up, because as soon as it was, Lu Jie couldn't help but get annoyed: "I don't know, but I ran into it."

“I texted him today to ask if he was free tonight so we could have dinner together, but he said he was busy with clients.”

"I went shopping and happened to see him coming out of the restroom. I secretly followed him and found out that he was having dinner with Jiang Lina at a restaurant."

“Jiang Ruan, do you know that restaurant is where I often eat with him? He said he especially likes the food there. I used to be so naive and thought it was because he liked it, but it turns out it's because Jiang Lina likes it.”

"He never forgot Jiang Lina from beginning to end."

Lu Jie wiped away her tears: "You have no idea how happy he was at that time. He has never laughed like that when he was with me. I thought he was just like that by nature."

"So that's not it. So he can laugh so happily, and he can be so gentle to people, even serving them food. It's just because he doesn't like me."

Jiang Ruan got angry when she heard this: "Damn it, break up with him."

"He doesn't like you but he's still with you, treats you like this, and is still flirting with his ex-girlfriend. Isn't he a complete scumbag and trash?"

"Lu Jie, are all the men in the world dead? Why are you putting yourself through this?"

Lu Jie sobbed, "I'm truly giving up this time."

“I can accept that he’s busy, after all, he has a very strong career, I’ve always known that.”

“I can understand that he doesn’t have time for me.”

“But I really can’t accept what he did with Jiang Lina. You know, they were so close back then, like they were lovers who had been together for many years.”

"I'm just an outsider."

“I used to be able to fool myself, but I can’t anymore. Since we got together, apart from our bed, I’m a stranger to him.”

"He didn't care about anything about me, and he never said he liked me or loved me. It was all just wishful thinking on my part."

"This relationship has always been a one-man show for me."

Lu Jie's eyes were brimming with tears, but she held them back. She had been crying for too long today, and her eyes were burning with pain.

"Even after all this, you still won't break up with him?" Jiang Ruan said angrily. "What do you want from him? His emotional abuse? His lack of love for you? His complete disregard for you? Lu Jie, since you know everything, why are you putting yourself through this?"

As Jiang Ruan spoke, her eyes reddened, and she held Lu Jie's hand tightly: "You are my darling too, do you know that?"

"I've cherished you all these years, and this is how others hurt you?"

Lu Jie's eyelashes trembled slightly as their eyes met, but she suddenly calmed down.

Lu Jie wiped away her tears: "I know, I know everything."

"I'm just stubborn and won't give up until I hit a brick wall."

Jiang Ruan sighed: "You."

"Don't even mention you, all women in the world are like that."

"Did it hurt this time?"

Lu Jie nodded: "Yes, it hurts."

She pointed to her chest: "It hurts so much here, it's killing me."

“Then let’s turn back,” Jiang Ruan said. “Don’t love him anymore, okay?” Lu Jie was very obedient this time: “Okay.”

With tears in her eyes, she said, "I'm tired. This time, true love is no more."

"I don't have the courage anymore."

I no longer have the courage to fawn over him like a lapdog.

I no longer have the courage to let him hurt my passionate heart so wantonly.

It's already past midnight, and it's getting late.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Lu Jie grabbed Jiang Ruan's hand, looking pitiful, and asked, "Can you sleep with me tonight?"

"I'm scared being here all alone."

"Just for one night, will Bo Ye agree?"

Jiang Ruan said, "He will. I'll go and tell him."

Seeing that she agreed, Lu Jie's eyes lit up immediately: "Okay."

"Then take a shower first," Jiang Ruan said. "I brought you new underwear and pajamas, they're all in the bathroom."

"Are you sure you can manage on your own? Do you need my help?"

Lu Jie replied directly, "No need."

She let go of Jiang Ruan's hand, stood up, and although she was a little unsteady, she still managed to stay upright: "It's just a little bit of wine, it won't knock me out."

Watching her go straight into the bathroom and close the door, Jiang Ruan finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

Upon entering the bedroom, the lights were off, with only a nightlight on.

The dim yellow light made it difficult for Jiang Ruan to see Bo Ye, but the balcony door was open.

She walked over and saw the man smoking on the balcony.

Why aren't you sleeping?

A soft female voice sounded from behind him. Bo Ye turned around and saw her walking over, a cigarette between her fingers. His voice was a little hoarse.

"Await your return."

Putting out the cigarette, Bo Ye looked at her clothes and frowned slightly: "Your clothes are dirty, change them."

Jiang Ruan just remembered where it was dirty when she suddenly remembered that Lu Jie had been crying in her arms, and Bo Ye had seen it all.

With a smile in her eyes, she pretended not to understand and looked up at him: "What, do you dislike me?"

"So if I wear this outfit to bed, you won't kiss me or sleep with me anymore?"

Bo Ye scoffed, "Dream on."

"If you don't take it off, I'll help you take it off."

His tone was roguish.

Jiang Ruan stuck out her tongue: "You bad guy."

Bo Ye walked over and stood in front of him: "It's getting late, shall we take a shower together?"

Jiang Ruan asked curiously, "Didn't you shower last night?"

Bo Ye frowned: "She vomited so much, and my clothes smelled terrible too."

"Jiang Ruan, I have OCD."

Jiang Ruan: "Okay."

"But I really can't shower with you today."

Bo Ye looked at her: "You're on your period?"

"How come it's so fast? It's not here by evening."

“No.” Jiang Ruan said, both amused and exasperated, “I didn’t come. I only left a few days ago.”

Jiang Ruan coughed lightly: "I have something to tell you. I have to sleep with Lu Jie tonight. She's shy and can't sleep alone."

"So you should wash up and go to bed early."

At a speed visible to the naked eye, Bo Ye's face darkened.

She got herself so drunk in the middle of the night that she made Jiang Ruan get up and go to the bar to bail her out. She vomited all over his car and caused all this trouble until now, and she still wants Jiang Ruan to sleep with her.

It's a beautiful thought.

Bo Ye's tone was cold: "How old are you? Still afraid of strangers?"

"Let her sleep by herself, you sleep with me."

This statement is absolute, leaving absolutely no room for negotiation.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Jiang Ruan blinked. It was something she had expected, but she was still very happy.

Jiang Ruan tiptoed, hugged Bo Ye's neck, and began to whine, "Oh, I know you're the best, don't be angry, I'm only sleeping with her for one night."

"Just for one night, okay?"

As she spoke, Jiang Ruan kissed his cheek and then the corner of his lips.

Then to the lips.

Bo Ye stared coldly at her with his dark eyes, watching as she took the initiative to kiss him, her expression incredibly passionate.

Bo Ye snorted coldly: "Don't think that a kiss will make me agree."

"dream."

He seemed completely unyielding.

Jiang Ruan: "..."

She just wouldn't believe it.

Jiang Ruan wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him several times on the lips.

Her eyes were exceptionally sincere, her voice sweet and gentle, and she looked at him with deep affection: "I know you're the best."

"You're the one who loves me and cherishes me the most in the whole world."

Jiang Ruan shook him, pleading, "Be good, just for one night."

"I'll make it up to you tomorrow night, okay?"

"Bo Ye~ Please?"

"Bo Ye~"

She rarely acts this mushy.

It's still the same tone.

Upon hearing her words, Bo Ye's Adam's apple bobbed, and he reached out and grabbed her waist.

He pulled her tightly into his arms, and Jiang Ruan pressed herself against him, exclaiming, "Ah!"

Suddenly I felt something I shouldn't have felt.

Jiang Ruan looked up abruptly, dumbfounded: "You..." How could this be...

Bo Ye stared at her intently, his voice hoarse and barely audible: "Try to seduce me again."

"I'm really not going to let you go."

Jiang Ruan blushed: "I didn't."

Bo Ye interrupted her and asked, "Tell me how you plan to make it up to me tomorrow?"

Jiang Ruan subconsciously replied, "I'll do whatever you say."

Bo Ye chuckled: "You said it yourself, don't regret it."

After Jiang Ruan finished speaking, she wished she could bite off her own tongue.

At this point, all I could do was bite the bullet and say, "I don't regret it, I definitely don't regret it."

Hearing this, Bo Ye finally let go of her: "Let's go."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

The way he said that made it sound like he was completely severing ties with the two of them and about to break up.

"Then you should go to sleep early," Jiang Ruan said softly.

Before he could say anything more, Bo Ye said coolly, "If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave."

Jiang Ruan was startled and turned to leave without saying a word.

She was moving so fast it looked like someone was chasing her.

Bo Ye: "..."

I watched her disappear through the door.

Bo Ye gritted his teeth, picked up the cigarette pack, and bit one into his mouth.

Oh shit.

They've come to steal her away.

He remembered this.
