Chapter 1484 - 1407: Considering Her
No matter when, having more friends is always better than having more enemies. Even if they’re not friends, at least don’t turn them into enemies.
So if she could build good relationships, Ye Ranran was naturally more than willing to oblige.
She took out a jewelry box from her bag: "Chief Fu asked me to bring this."
Sun Yi eagerly reached for it, opened the box, and upon seeing the contents, her eyes sparkled with emotion: "He’s quite thoughtful."
"Mm, he really likes you. As soon as you left, he immediately asked me where he could find an identical one."
Sun Yi’s smile froze: "Was it you who found it?"
Ye Ranran waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I just asked about it. He went and bought it himself."
"Then why didn’t he personally deliver it to me?" Sun Yi closed the lid, her expression darkening.
Ye Ranran remained unafraid of her hostility, her clear eyes reflecting a gentle shimmer: "Because he thought you’d prefer me delivering it."
Sun Yi quickly understood what she meant. Presented with such transparency, further nitpicking would only make her seem petty.
"Forget it, I’ll be the bigger person and not stoop to your level."
"Miss Sun, you’re truly magnanimous." Ye Ranran seized the opportunity to heap praise.
Sun Yi was pleased with the flattery, but as she smiled and smiled, the smile slowly disappeared: "Don’t think I’m a fool who can be so easily deceived by you."
Her father had already warned her that Wen Cai was no pushover. Rising steadily alongside Fu Rong, Wen Cai was clearly someone not to be underestimated.
For instance, take the previous incident—few women could swallow their pride in such a situation, yet she had done so without hesitation.
"If you don’t believe me, there’s not much I can do. But I can offer some advice: If you want to know the truth, why not just ask him?" Ye Ranran didn’t argue back.
Of course, Sun Yi had to ask, but not right now.
Though willful, she wasn’t brainless. Fu Rong hadn’t loved her to the extent of indulging her every whim without principle.
Looking at Ye Ranran’s delicate face, an idea suddenly sprouted in Sun Yi’s mind: "Secretary Wen, have you ever thought about leaving him?"
Ye Ranran pretended not to understand, staring at her with feigned cluelessness: "Miss Sun, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Secretary Wen, can you really not figure it out?"
"Miss Sun, what is it that you’re worried about? If he chooses you, I’ll certainly not stand in the way." Ye Ranran’s voice was calm, her gaze tinged with distant detachment.
She wasn’t planning to stay with Fu Rong, but there was no need to reveal that.
Sun Yi’s face showed a hint of discomfort, her intentions exposed: "That’s not what I meant. I just think—if I’m with him, and you see us every day, wouldn’t you feel uncomfortable?"
At first, her voice sounded a little unnatural, but it soon regained its composure.
Indeed, she was simply being considerate of her feelings.
"If I wanted a transfer, would Miss Sun help me?"
"Of course. Just tell me which department you’d like to go to, and I’ll arrange it for you."
This statement made a faint shadow pass through Ye Ranran’s gaze. She wouldn’t dare say such bold words, yet Sun Yi did.
Given how prominently she was making waves now and her unbridled arrogance, it showed the connections under her father, the governor, were buzzing with activity.
"I haven’t made my decision yet, but just remember your promise, Miss Sun." She felt that someday, she might indeed need to rely on her help.
Her dismissive attitude left Sun Yi slightly displeased: "You’re not planning to leave, are you?"
A romantic rival lingering around her fiancé—it would unsettle anyone.
"Miss Sun, it’s not up to me to leave just because I want to. Right now, even if I did, I’m afraid your dear one might not agree. When the dust settles, then we can revisit this topic."
