Zhao Hao was very unhappy when Jiang Ranran pushed the door open and entered.
"Zhao Hao, don't be angry!" Jiang Ranran said softly.
She knew Zhao Hao was angry because Zhao Han was with Qin Chuan, but she didn't know that a large part of his anger stemmed from her.
A woman is a man's reflection, and Jiang Ranran was inferior to Luo Hua and Zhao Han, so Zhao Hao had lost, and lost without a doubt.
"Get out! Who let you in?" Zhao Hao suddenly roared.
Jiang Ranran froze, staring at Zhao Hao in disbelief. This was the man she had chosen, the young master of the Zhao family. Although he was a playboy, marrying him was definitely a stroke of good fortune.
This playboy, though unambitious, at least treated her well, and that was enough. But now he was telling her to get out.
"Did you hear me? Get out! You've embarrassed me! Don't come looking for me again!" Zhao Hao roared.
Jiang Ranran's face darkened. In that instant, she seemed to regret not going with Qin Chuan in the first place.
Actually, she still didn't know that Qin Chuan didn't like her at all, but she thought that as long as she agreed, she could become Qin Chuan's woman.
He didn't know how to leave.
The next day, he went to class as usual. Now Qin Chuan went to class as usual, and after class, he would go to his teacher for an extra hour of study, so his cultivation was also rapidly improving.
The woman's madness had been completely cured, and the teacher and his wife were very happy and content. Only by going through hardships and persevering together could they know the beauty of the present.
They were sincerely grateful to Qin Chuan, and even regarded him as their own child.
The teacher and his wife were both middle-aged, although the woman still looked very young, it was a mature, alluring, and beautiful woman.
Qin Chuan also respected the two of them. When he went to visit, he would often bring some food he had made himself, after all, the woman had given him a treasure.
The magical Buddhist beads had been absorbed by Qin Chuan. Although his strength and realm had not changed, the benefits to Qin Chuan's Buddhist skills were unimaginable.
In addition, after this divine artifact Buddhist beads were absorbed into Qin Chuan's body, they went to the Supreme Treasure Buddha and merged into the Supreme Treasure Buddha's body.
A faint golden light appeared on the sacred Buddha, very weak yet very clear, making him appear even more dignified and solemn.
It's understandable that the teacher and his wife enjoyed Qin Chuan's food; the greatest pleasures in life are undoubtedly food and women.
Food is enjoyable and filling, and when one is full, one naturally has wandering thoughts, such as those about women. This is why it's said that
when one is well-fed and warm, one thinks of women. If one is hungry and cold, one has no desire for women at all; even if they were placed before him, he would be powerless, or even lack the will.
Qin Chuan could sense that his teacher was happy, and his teacher's woman was happy too. Such happiness is actually quite rare, and its duration is also uncertain.
Happiness and joy in this world are fleeting, while sorrow and trouble are long-lasting. After all, life is full of troubles.
No matter who you are—commoner, high-ranking official, noble family, sect—everyone has their own troubles and worries.
As the saying goes, familiarity breeds fondness; the more you spend together, the better you get along.
The more Qin Chuan spent with his teachers, the more mysterious they seemed, gradually becoming unfathomable.
Before his strength improved, he sensed their power level, but now, with his own increase, their strength had also risen, by a similar margin.
Although puzzled, Qin Chuan said nothing. He could see and feel whether they were good to him; that couldn't be faked.
Sometimes it's better to be a little oblivious—oblivious about small things, but clear-headed about big ones. After finishing his meal, it was already noon.
Qin Chuan left. With nothing to do in the afternoon, he planned to return home. The martial arts exchange was approaching, so he wanted to discuss some matters with his teachers.
The Hall Master was different from the academy teacher. Although not Qin Chuan's master, the Hall Master had shown him great kindness.
The academy teacher, strictly speaking, had received favors from Qin Chuan. However, the important thing was that he felt comfortable with both of them.
Without mutual understanding, it's difficult to maintain a good relationship, let alone enjoy it.
After walking out, he noticed a girl standing not far away, seemingly waiting for someone.
It was Jiang Ranran!
Qin Chuan walked over; they often went back together, since his teacher lived at the Jiang family's house.
"Are you waiting for someone?" Qin Chuan asked.
"I'm waiting for you!" Jiang Ranran sounded a little downcast.
Qin Chuan nodded: "Let's go, let's go back together!"
Jiang Ranran nodded. They went back together, and Qin Chuan didn't say anything; they just wanted to go back together.
"Qin Chuan!" Jiang Ranran broke the silence first, asking.
"Mm!" Qin Chuan responded. To him, Jiang Ranran felt more like a stranger, since he would soon be leaving, and she would completely disappear from his world.
"Do you dislike me?" Jiang Ranran asked softly.
"Why would you ask that?" Qin Chuan said indifferently.
"I know I underestimated you before. I apologize, I'm sorry," Jiang Ranran said earnestly.
Qin Chuan was taken aback. Had this woman changed her ways? He shook his head. After all, she was the daughter of his teacher's sworn brother, and he was staying at their house, so it was best to be polite.
"No need to apologize, I really didn't take it to heart,"
Qin Chuan said truthfully.
Jiang Ranran's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great! Qin Chuan, do you still like me?"
Qin Chuan was stunned. What was going on? Something was wrong. He asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"I know it was wrong of me to break off the engagement. I was wrong. I won't break off the engagement anymore. Let's be together, okay?" Jiang Ranran said pitifully.
Qin Chuan finally understood. This woman really had a way with her imagination. This was even possible?
Qin Chuan shook his head: "I have a woman I like."
"You mean Zhao Han? Or Luo Hua?" Jiang Ranran asked.
"Both!" Qin Chuan thought for a moment and said.
"Qin Chuan, I'm not trying to discourage you, but you can't afford to associate with the Zhao family. You should give up on Zhao Han as soon as possible. I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're putting yourself in a very dangerous situation." Jiang Ranran lectured Qin Chuan seriously.
Qin Chuan frowned slightly. He felt a little disgusted by Jiang Ranran's lecture. He didn't feel anything else. He couldn't find any good qualities in this woman; she had many annoying flaws.
"Aren't you with Zhao Hao?" Qin Chuan asked.
