“As he spoke, he climbed onto Yu Ran, pretending to strangle him. Both of them collapsed onto the sofa, one pleading for mercy, the other acting like a shrew. Finally… they both stopped, looked at each other, and started kissing. ‘Qian Qian.’ ‘Hmm?’ ‘If I really cheated on you, you could strangle me to death, and I wouldn’t blame you.’ ‘Oh? Planning for future infidelity already?’ ‘My queen, what I mean is, to keep my life, I’d let you dominate me, and I would never cheat.’ ‘Hehe, so obedient.’ Shen Qian held his face and kissed him again. Shen Qian was good to Yu Ran, and Yu Ran doted on Shen Qian. Some said Yu Ran wasn’t a man, letting Shen Qian bully him. After Shen Qian heard about this, she called the man out, kicked him hard in the groin, and spat disdainfully, ‘Do you know what a real man is? My husband lets me bully him because he respects me. Unlike you, stuffing your pants to pretend you’re a man.’ She then turned and walked away. Later, at school, Shen Qian was known as the female rogue. Indeed, when she started her second year of high school, Shen Qian had seven ear piercings on her left ear, all in a row, very noticeable. It was her first time getting so many piercings at once, and not taking good care of them, many had pus, and her ear swelled up like a pig’s, looking both comical and pitiful. That was the first time Yu Ran didn’t indulge her, while he helped her clean the pus, he scolded, ‘You’re just messing around, one or two would have been enough, but seven at once? Do you think you’re really a rogue?’ Shen Qian felt wronged, ‘I got so many piercings just to make this year easier for you.’ Then Yu Ran understood the connection between the seven piercings and his birthday. It was when Shen Qian stuffed a book into his desk, and after he finished reading it, he was both amused and touched. That day at dinner, he kissed Shen Qian and said, ‘When your left ear heals, we’ll get one piercing each, left for men, right for women.’ ‘What for?’ ‘To be a pair.’ Later, Shen Qian learned that men piercing only their left ear often signifies homosexuality. She didn’t understand why Yu Ran suddenly came up with this idea. Their relationship grew better until that day it rained, and they got drenched, Shen Qian changed into Yu Ran’s white shirt… and they tasted the forbidden fruit. In Shen Qian’s shameless words: ‘Our animal desires were unleashed.’ Yu Ran was both amused and embarrassed, because that time, he truly experienced what it means by ‘partners in crime,’ ‘Before my bed, moonlight glows, seems like frost upon the floor.’ Yu Ran felt it didn’t matter; he was going to marry Shen Qian, no matter what. He took Shen Qian home early, to show his father, a declaration of sorts, whether it would work out or not, just to let him know that he had someone, his woman. But everything changed when Shen Qian’s mother came back… Shen Qian could no longer be with Yu Ran, even if she wanted to, her mother wouldn’t allow it. Shen Qian still remembered her mother’s face when she told her about her relationship with Yu Ran; her mother’s face turned ashen, then she slapped Shen Qian, leaving a bright red handprint, and said a bloody word, ‘Disgraceful.’ Her own mother called her disgraceful… she cried for the first time, heart-wrenchingly. She was confined to her room, not even allowed to go to school, for a whole month. When she was finally allowed out, she rushed to find Yu Ran, only to see him with her good friend Nan Nan and her sister Yu Cheng, laughing and walking towards her. Shen Qian thought she had caught Yu Ran cheating, but it was actually a setup by Yu Ran. He waited for Shen Qian to confront him, but all she said was, ‘I am indeed disgraceful.’ She laughed, her first love was so cold to her, she bit her lip and said, ‘Yu Ran, let’s break up. I’m the one who doesn’t want you anymore.’ Yu Ran pursed his lips, his eyes twinkling uncertainly, and said softly, ‘That’s good too.’ Shen Qian didn’t cry in front of him but turned away gracefully, walking away step by step. Only Yu Ran slumped his shoulders, watching her leave with pain, recalling his father’s words, ‘You know Shen Qian doesn’t have a father?’ ‘I know.’ ‘I am her father. She and Yu Chu share the same mother.'”
Author’s Note: My vase… owes again, but this story still needs daily updates, I want to finish it quickly, I’ll work hard tomorrow, update both pits… Friend’s work: <<—– You can click it 3333, Chapter 33… Yu Commander’s gaze on Shen Qian was too intense, causing Qin Zheng to look a few more times as well. ‘Grandpa Qin.’ Yu Cheng patted Qin Zheng’s shoulder with a beaming smile. Qin Zheng, startled, turned around to see Yu Cheng, his face blooming like a flower. He chuckled and said affectionately, ‘Orange, you look very pretty today.’ He looked around but didn’t see Qin Hao. ‘Where’s Hao Hao?’ ‘I don’t know.’ Yu Cheng supported Qin Zheng, acting like a good girl, and when she saw Yu Commander, she politely nodded, ‘Hello, Uncle Yu.’ Yu Commander particularly liked Yu Cheng, she was sweet and lively, if his son Yu Ran could be with her, it would be perfect, they could complement each other. But his son… he couldn’t help but look towards Yu Ran again. Yu Cheng followed his gaze, and with a hint of sarcasm, she said, ‘Uncle Yu, that’s Shen Qian, your future daughter-in-law.’ Qin Zheng was taken aback, ‘What? Ran Ran has a girlfriend?’ ‘Dad, that’s Ran Ran’s first love.’ Yu Commander said with a touch of helplessness. Qin Zheng knew Yu Ran’s obsession with his first love was after the traffic accident, when the police initially wanted to penalize Yu Ran for speeding on the highway, but Grandpa Qin had it suppressed. Later, the police found out it wasn’t an accidental crash but a deliberate act. This was serious, what made his beloved grandson, who was at the peak of his life, lose his will to live? Not knowing that flight students who graduate are specially selected as seed soldiers, with limitless prospects, especially with Yu Ran’s father’s backing, his future was bright. Yet, at such a peak, he lost his will to live? Grandpa Qin talked to Yu Commander, who revealed an absurd reason. It turned out, Yu Ran learned of his first love’s death, feeling responsible for it, he lost his will to live? Grandpa Qin was furious, banging his cane on the ground, how could a man let his career go for a woman? He hadn’t learned even half a cent from his father but inherited his mother’s sentimentality.
Old Man Qin thought that money was omnipotent. He liked Yu Cheng because, firstly, the girl was not bad; secondly, her family background was good; and thirdly, he had always thought she was a good match for You Ran. Therefore, he promised that whoever from his family married Yu Cheng would receive eighty percent of his property. This was undoubtedly directed at You Ran. Old Man Qin had only one adopted daughter and one adopted son; the son’s child had gone abroad, leaving only You Ran from the daughter’s family, who had the advantage of proximity. However, these conditions did not sway his stubborn grandson; not only did he refuse to marry, but he also said something that made Old Man Qin tremble with anger. “Grandpa, you don’t know, I’ve only ever wanted one woman in my life. She’s the one who made me feel needed, who showed me the warmth of home. I don’t have much warmth left to give to another woman; I don’t want to ruin another woman’s happiness.” “Feelings can be cultivated, how can you be so arbitrary!” Old Man Qin started tapping his cane again. “Then why couldn’t my dad and mom cultivate theirs?” You Ran countered, leaving Old Man Qin speechless. At that moment, You Ran was blind, unable to see anything, but his gaze was still as gentle as ever. He said, “Grandpa, feelings can be cultivated, but if one’s heart is filled with past memories or guilt, it can only hurt another innocent person. All my joys and sorrows are no longer within me…”
