Chapter 252 - 158 Even Without a Title_2
This statement, so startling it could shock the heavens and move ghosts, even stunned Yunsheng, as a crowd of people stopped in their tracks, staring wide-eyed and speechless at Sang Chen.
"It’s not that I choose a husband based on looks..." Ran Yan felt that once Sang Chen was set on something, no matter the reality in front of him, it didn’t affect his self-deception.
When Sang Chen heard this half-statement, his eyes lit up, "Wife, do you truly mean that?"
Ran Yan felt a blockage in her heart, turned her face away, and no longer wished to say another word. Ever since Sang Chen was determined about something, the more she said, the more mistakes she could make, the only option was to leave in frustration. Ran Yan’s emanating coldness silenced the large hall seated with more than a dozen people.
Yunsheng was shocked. Although Ran Yan had become much more indifferent than before, it was only that her emotional fluctuations were minimal. She had never lost her temper this badly in months. Yunsheng faintly felt that this was no playful banter, but rather that Sang Chen had touched her raw nerve.
Just as Yunsheng guessed, Ran Yan liked dealing with people who could speak logically. For those who couldn’t be reasoned with, she usually chose to ignore them. But because Sang Chen had a pitiful background and had helped her quite a lot before, his persistence made her feel as if she were suffocating, unable to vent her irritation.
Once in her room, Ran Yan opened the window and sat quietly by it to view the scenery, slowly easing the stifled air in her heart. She had previously studied forensic psychology and understood quite a bit about psychology, so she knew how to relieve her own stress.
She sat there until after midday, and after finishing lunch, Ran Yan pulled out the flute hidden in her sleeve, placed it to her lips, but then set it down after a long pause.
