Chapter 1: Why Does He Hate Her?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At the beginning of April, there was a lot of rain.

Staring at the gray sky with sullen eyes, Lu Anran stood in the corridor of the hospital. Her temples were sore.

Such a frustrating day was very suitable for remembering, burning paper, funerals, and crying in front of graves. It also suited her mood at the moment.

Her father’s kidneys had begun to fail, and he finally found a kidney donor, but it fell through the same frustrating day before the operation.

As an employee of this hospital, she didn’t ask her father to get any special treatment, but she at least wanted things to be fair.

She was so angry that she went to the dean to reason, but the dean warned her with a vexed expression, implying, ‘You can’t afford to offend the other party, so don’t make trouble or ask again.’

The dean had always been protective of his subordinates. Thus, it only showed that the dean dared not to offend the other party. 

She wasn’t insensible, but her father’s illness could no longer be dragged out. If she missed this chance, she might have lost her last opportunity.

Her phone vibrated in her pocket. She retracted her gaze, took out the phone, and answered, “Sister, have you found out who the other party is?”

At the other end was her stepsister Lu Anna, a celebrity who had quickly risen to fame in the last two years and had a huge network of contacts.

“I found it.”

She raised a hand to touch her temple, narrowed her eyes, and asked, “Who is it?”

“Gu Liangchen,” Lu Anna said softly.

When Lu Anran heard these words, her face suddenly paled, and her whole body froze.

The first thought that occurred to her was, ‘How much does he hate me to actually take revenge on me with this kind of matter concerning my father’s life?’

Her second thought was, ‘Why does he hate me in the first place?’

It was obvious that he was the one who betrayed her first.

The recollection of pain that had long been forgotten gave her a small jab in the heart. She closed her eyes and said calm tone as possible, “Then can you ask your friend to help discuss with the other party? As long as he is willing, we can pay more…”

“Anran,” Lu Anna interrupted her, “Gu Liangchen said he isn’t short of money.”

Lu Anran was stunned. “Then what does he want?”

“He wants me to accompany him tonight for dinner.”

“…” Shameless bastard!

He wouldn’t even spare the people around her.

She opened her eyes, but she didn’t realize that her voice was trembling. “I’ll take care of this matter. I’ll talk to him.”

Lu Anran’s heart went cold from the moment she heard that name. The grievances between her and Gu Liangchen were entirely between her and him. It was impossible to involve other people.

Lu Anna hesitated and asked worriedly, “Can you handle it?”

In terms of scheming, she certainly was not Gu Liangchen’s opponent. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have ended so badly at the beginning. However, the other party made it clear that he was targeting her.

Even for dad, she had to lower herself.

After hanging up, Lu Anran stood in the corridor for a while before removing the person’s number from the blocklist.

She tried to reach him, but to no avail. 

So he blocked her too?

Then she had to personally go to his door and wait for him. Since he was crooked, she didn’t care about burning bridges.

Taking the umbrella absentmindedly, she simply stood in the rain for several hours until it was dark. Only then did she see a black car slowly parking at the gate of the single-family villa.

She knew the plate of the car and immediately rushed over without thinking. She stopped right in front of the car and looked coldly at the man in the back seat through the glass.

After a while, the car door opened, and a pair of long legs stepped out of the car.

The street lamp near the door was very bright, and she stared at him amid the rain.

Three years had passed, but he hadn’t changed at all.

He still had the same suave manner and charm. His cold eyes revealed a sense of distant cruelty.

When the man came to her, she realized that her fingers were shaking.
