Yang Baihua was shocked at her response. He wasn't able to react quickly as a foreboding feeling bloomed in his heart. Could she have known everything? But if she did, why would Ran Xueyi meet him?

If Ran Xueyi found out that he was lying to her when he's engaged to her, she wouldn't try to meet him now. She would try everything to make a fuss over this matter and demand an answer from him.

Before coming here, Yang Baihua was already thinking of different ways to appease her anger and make some excuses to divert her attention from the main point. Just thinking about how he would have to act in front of her was tiring for him. He just hoped that she would continue being an idiot as she did in the past few years.

However, Yang Baihua's expectations for Ran Xueyi were completely torn apart as Ran Xueyi ruthlessly ripped it apart, not even letting him make any excuses.

Even though he didn't like Ran Xueyi, Yang Baihua could not lose her. She still has so many uses for him.

Yang Baihua reached his hand and placed it on top of her hand on the table. He smiled the smile she really liked to see on his lips and said, "What are you talking about, Xueyi? Of course, I'm different."

"And my family?"

His mouth twitched and blamed the Ran family for doing something and raising her suspicions. "Your family is different too. They're only worried about you entering the entertainment industry again," said Yang Baihua before proceeding to say, "After all, it's been years since you went out in public. What will happen if some <anno data-annotation-id="8b3c8114-d419-3735-fee0-03940f07a795">black powder fans</anno>* tried to attack you? But then, it's their fault too since they should have said things to you in a different way."

Ran Xueyi sneered at him. So basically, he's telling her that she misunderstood her family's intention and turning good to bad? What a good scumbag this man was! If Ran Xueyi hadn't seen the truth long before, she would have probably believe his lies again.

How laughable it was that she was the best actress for a long time but she was blinded by their acting. Ran Xueyi wondered if she could give all of them a best acting award. The kind where their reward is a bouquet of knives.

Originally, Ran Xueyi planned to act clueless and proceed with her plan and use their own method to themselves. However, now that she was married to someone extremely outstanding, more outstanding than Yang Baihua, Ran Xueyi's confidence was boosted up. More than that, she didn't want to act like a clueless little girl anymore.

No, she didn't want to give them any more chances to fool her.

"Yang Baihua... is it fun?" Ran Xueyi took her hand back and shot him a disgusted look before leaning her back against the backrest of the chair.

"What?"

"Is it fun messing around with me?"

"What are you talking about, Xueyi? Did something happen before you came here? Are you in a bad mood?" Yang Baihua still asked even when he knew that the past Ran Xueyi would never show her mood swings in front of him.

Seeing that he still didn't want to admit to anything, Ran Xueyi decided to set the things that went wrong straight. "Yang Baihua... Our engagement. I don't want it anymore. I'm backing out from it."

Yang Baihua's smile turned stiffer as he stared in shock. "Wait... wait... what are you talking about? You... You're backing out from what?"

Ran Xueyi didn't spare him any more of her time. "You're smart... you should understand what I'm saying." She stood up from her seat and coldly glanced at him. "Unless you're speaking an Alien language and you don't fucking understand a single word I said."

Ran Xueyi rarely cursed in front of anyone. But that didn't mean she never said a curse word in her life. On the contrary, Ran Xueyi had a hard time keeping her mouth shut and not saying a curse everyday.

Because of her upbringing and her strict parents, Ran Xueyi didn't want to show this reckless and arrogant attitude to anyone other than her grandparents who knew her so well that they'd allow her to curse when she's in the countryside.

But now that the chains were broken into pieces, nothing can hold her anymore.

Ran Xueyi walked to the entrance of the restaurant and walked out of there without waiting for him to recover and try to chase after her.

By the time Yang Baihua recollected his brain and wanted to chase after her just as she expected, Ran Xueyi was already gone.

Outside the restaurant, Yang Baihua's heart was cold as he cursed at Ran Xueyi for backing out of the engagement and changing too much. On the other hand, he was extremely nervous and was afraid that she'll really back out from their engagement.

No! She can't back out... Not until they got what they wanted from her.

After thinking for a bit, Yang Baihua calmed down. That's right... it must be her throwing a tantrum. Ran Xueyi loved him so much that she was even willing to give up her career as the top actress and even blindly follow wherever he went.

She'll come back to him and by that time, he'll act as if he was angry at her and make her beg him to forgive her. He's confident that she'll return to him since she had no one else to go to.

Her friends are gone, her career is also finished, and her family supports him.

Just imagining Ran Xueyi's beautiful face crying for forgiveness made Yang Baihua's lips spread into a creepy smile.
