The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

"you......"

Suddenly, the two spoke at the same time.

"You go ahead and say it."

"You go ahead and say it."

When they realized that the other person seemed to have something to say, they started talking at the same time.

After two consecutive instances of using the same words, the two fell silent again.

......

Outside the light screen.

Although it seems like watching a melodramatic prime-time soap opera, because the two people have special identities and strengths, and because this is presented by Gu Ran's memories, it is indeed something that happened back then.

Therefore, many powerful figures present showed a hint of maternal smiles, subconsciously feeling that the two seemed quite well-matched.

Of course, some people smiled like doting aunts, while a few felt as if their period was really about to start.

Eudora was filled with rage, her face flushed red. She wished she had been there to stop it, and ideally, to drag the female lead into the ocean and drown her.

Although Yudora comforted herself, saying that it was fate that had played a trick on her, and that Gu Ran hadn't had any real female confidantes since then, and that Xue Xiling had now joined the anti-Gu alliance, she thought...

Moreover, he was one of the most determined people who did not waver.

But her constant self-consolation still couldn't make her mind go away.

Because she can't forget their first meeting;

She could never forget Gu Ran escorting her home from afar;

She could never forget how Gu Ran risked his life to save her mother and the other mermaids;

She could never forget Gu Ran's resolute decision to rush into the merfolk ruins to save her;

She could never forget how Gu Ran destroyed his dantian to save her...

I can't forget the look of disgust on Gu Ran's face after she "lost her memory"...

He can't forget the little seashell she gave him that broke...

I can't forget that she once "forgot" him...

This feeling left Eudora with mixed emotions. She wanted to know what Gu Ran had gone through after leaving the ocean and why he had become the way he was today, so that she could understand him better. At the same time, she didn't want to continue seeing Gu Ran and his other female friends looking so well-matched.

"After I rescue him, I'll make him confess how many beautiful vixens he's been messing with all these years... Has he completely forgotten about me? He hasn't come to see me in all these years..."

Eudora began thinking about how to question Gu Ran after rescuing him.

When Xue Xiling saw this scene on the screen, a hint of nostalgia flashed in her eyes.

That was truly the happiest time of her life. Her father was still alive, and she could chat with the person she loved, who remained so perfect in her heart...

At that time, she was truly full of hope for the future.

But soon, the nostalgia in Xue Xiling's eyes was replaced by pain.

That heart-wrenching feeling returned to her body.

The blood-soaked scene resurfaced in her mind, and the cold reply, "Yes, I killed your father," echoed repeatedly in her heart.

Why did things turn out this way?

A thin layer of sweat gradually seeped from Xue Xiling's forehead.

Nostalgia vanishes from sight, replaced by a resolute departure.

From that moment on, her heart died.

No, that's not entirely accurate. It would be more accurate to say that most of her life was over, and only her passion for research sustained her as she continued her work.

At the same time, a sense of responsibility to revitalize Lanxin University completely changed her.

In fact, although she hated Gu Ran at first, she never thought about revenge. She only wanted to never see Gu Ran again and rebuild Lanxin University in peace, so that Lanxin University could regain its former glory.

However, Gu Ran became increasingly outrageous, ruthless, and cruel, quickly becoming a tyrant condemned by all. And when she investigated, she discovered that Gu Ran had indeed become the person the rumors had described.

This left her both stunned and extremely angry.

Why did Gu Ran become this kind of person?

Was his father wrong in judging him back then?

I thought that although he did have shortcomings in his private life, he possessed unparalleled talent in governing and could make life better for the majority of people.

Then, her hatred for Gu Ran changed from a personal vendetta of killing her father and destroying the school to a public hatred of punishing the tyrant for everyone.

Cheng Youmeng looked at Gu Ran on the screen, her eyes filled with longing.

It has to be admitted that at that time, Gu Ran was the perfect lover in the eyes of many girls. Even I, who didn't have a good impression of him, felt his charm.

At that time, she was still young and did not clearly understand her own feelings. Moreover, she was thinking about reviving the martial arts school and not letting her sister work so hard, so she treated Gu Ran as a friend.

Yes, not as teacher and student, but as friends.

Although the two were essentially teacher and student at the time, Gu Ran wasn't that rigid. Their interactions were mostly like those of friends, rather than the more serious teacher-student relationship.

Moreover, at that time she also thought that Gu Ran would become her "brother-in-law". Her sister was always researching his information and talking about his name.

Until that great upheaval occurred, and my sister died...

At the time, she didn't know that her sister's death was related to Gu Ran; she assumed her sister had fallen ill from overwork and suffered serious injuries...

Cheng Youmeng stroked the sword in her arms; this must be the last thing her sister left her.

If I could kill Gu Ran with this sword, that would be the most perfect revenge.

Unfortunately, Gu Ran is about to die inside this triangular crystal cone called the Ark Core.

Cheng Youmeng thought to herself.

However, a thought soon crept into her mind that things might not be so simple and that there might be unexpected changes.

Cheng Youmeng frowned slightly.

......

In the light screen.

Before Gu Ran and Xue Xiling could say much, a familiar figure ran over, her breasts heaving as she ran.

"Teacher Gu Ran, Teacher Gu Ran, so you're here!" Cheng Youmeng ran over excitedly, then looked at Xue Xiling, "Who is she...?"

Cheng Youmeng looked somewhat suspicious, her gaze constantly scrutinizing Gu Ran and Xue Xiling's faces.

“She is my friend and also a researcher at Lanxin University, but she is currently a full-time researcher and does not teach students,” Gu Ran explained.

Hearing Gu Ran's explanation, Cheng Youmeng's face lit up with a smile again: "Oh, she's your colleague. I was wondering why I'd never seen her before. Turns out she's a full-time researcher. That's amazing. I thought Professor Gu Ran was your real name. It's a bit strange to think that."

Cheng Youmeng said something, then suddenly made a comment about Gu Ran's name. Realizing she had gone off-topic, she continued, "I thought that Professor Gu Ran was already a genius for becoming a researcher at Lanxin University at such a young age, but I didn't expect there to be researchers even younger than Professor Gu Ran."

Cheng Youmeng looked on with admiration.

Seemingly the first time she had been praised by someone she didn't know, Xue Xiling was a little embarrassed and said shyly, "Actually, it's nothing. I'm just good at research, while Gu Ran can do both research and fight. He's the real genius."

After she finished speaking, Xue Xiling secretly glanced at Gu Ran, her eyes filled with even more shyness.

Cheng Youmeng's heart, which had been at ease, suddenly tightened again, although she didn't know why she suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"Alright, what do you want from me? You didn't come here just because you're bored, did you?" Gu Ran raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Oh no, of course not, it's my sister." Cheng Youmeng quickly remembered her real purpose for coming to find Gu Ran. "My sister said that you and she had two bets back then, and she said that now that you've heard this news, you'll naturally go to find her."

Bet?

Gu Ran thought of Cheng Caimeng, a woman who looked very mature and composed but was actually quite mischievous and like a little girl.

Is this the time to make me fulfill the bet? Is it because my fame is at its peak now, and I have more power to help her fulfill the bet?

Gu Ran couldn't help but wonder what Cheng Caimeng wanted to ask of him, and what bet she wanted him to fulfill.

“Okay, then I’ll go find her. Where is she now?” Gu Ran nodded.

“My sister is at the martial arts gym right now,” Cheng Youmeng said.

Martial arts hall... What martial arts hall? And where is it?

Gu Ran was a little confused for a moment.

Although Gu Ran had known Cheng Caimeng for quite some time, he had never actually been to her family's martial arts gym.

After a moment's thought, Gu Ran finally managed to retrieve the name he had almost forgotten from the corner of his memory.

Reverse Origin Martial Arts Hall... I always feel that this name has some profound meaning.

In an instant, Gu Ran enveloped the entire Canglong City with his mental power, searching for information about the Niyuan Martial Arts Hall.

As long as they are still within Canglong City, Gu Ran can find them directly.

So soon, Gu Ran found the Cheng sisters' martial arts school in a corner of Canglong City.

"Strange, I can't find Cheng Caimeng."
