Marrying My Ex-Husband's Arch Enemy

Chapter 44: Turned the Tables

Did he do all of this just to prove that he wasn’t involved? Why did he care about what she thought? Xu Anran couldn’t figure it out, but she was still very grateful for what Jiang Rongyan did for her.

She supported herself on the bed, sat up straight, and said righteously to Jiang Rongyan, “Thank you for helping me find out the truth and returning my innocence.”

Seeing her serious expression, Jiang Rongyan was slightly stunned. Her eyes were stubborn. Although there was still some sadness in them, there was more determination and tenacity in them. Jiang Rongyan’s gaze was involuntarily attracted by her lively eyes. He sighed in his heart. He could not understand why he cared so much about how Xu Anran looked at him.

“I don’t expect you to thank me either.” Jiang Rongyan reached out and touched Xu Anran’s head. “I just want you to be more cautious. Your sister will definitely not let this go. You should be more careful during this period of time.”

Xu Anran lowered her head in embarrassment. She felt that the top of her head that Jiang Rongyan had touched was burning. “I understand.”

“But…” Jiang Rongyan glanced at her and had an idea. He raised his eyebrows. “If you really want to thank me, it’s not that I can’t accept it.”

“How do you want me to thank you? As long as you say it, I’ll do it.” Xu Anran raised her eyes and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

Jiang Rongyan was just saying it casually. He didn’t expect her to be so serious. He didn’t know how to answer for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said, “Thank you.” He said, “I haven’t tasted your cooking. When you’re cured, make me a meal.”

Xu Anran said, “…Do you know why I never go into the kitchen?”

Ever since she was young, there was nothing that she could not learn, other than cooking. Every time she cooked, either the kitchen would explode or the taste would poison people to death. She thought for a moment and took a deep breath. With a solemn expression, she said to Jiang Rongyan, “If you’re not afraid of death, I don’t mind making you a meal.”

Jiang Rongyan pondered for a moment. He felt that it was not worth losing his life for a meal. “…Then forget it.” He shook his head helplessly. Although he really wanted to see Xu Anran personally prepare something for him, no matter what it was… But she had already said so. The most important thing was to save his life.

Xu Anran grinned. “I really don’t know how to cook. Tell me something else.”

“I was just joking with you.” Jiang Rongyan’s hand that was stroking her hair became more natural. “Don’t take it to heart.”

“I can’t.” Xu Anran said apologetically, “Or should I treat you to a meal?”

It could be seen that she wanted to do something for him in return. She looked very well-behaved when she was anxious. Jiang Rongyan’s vanity was greatly satisfied. He smiled, pretended to be troubled, and nodded. “That’s fine. After you’re discharged from the hospital, anything is fine.”

Xu Anran was about to speak when she heard a woman’s voice coming from the door. Before she entered, the room was filled with her voice. “Anran, Anran, are you okay?” It was her best friend, Tao Ran.

As soon as Tao Ran entered, she quickly held her hand and carefully examined her body. She pulled her here and there to check. When she was sure that there were no other wounds on her body, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Just as her shoulders drooped down, she immediately propped them up again. The fury in her heart exploded. She said indignantly, “I was the one who didn’t see clearly in the past. Qin Xiaokun is really a f*cking scumbag! He’s such a heartless thing! To think that you were so good to him in the past! He actually got together with Xu Anning and even plotted against you together with Xu Anning.”

“How did you know?” Xu Anran asked in confusion.

Tao Ran stretched out her hand and poked her head with her index finger. “This is already on the news, and you still want to hide it from me?”

“It’s on the news?” She was, after all, the person involved. Ever since she found out that she could not defend herself, she had automatically blocked all the news. During the two days she was hospitalized, she did not even look at the news. She did not know what the outcome of this matter would be.

“Don’t tell me that you still don’t know about this?” Tao Ran frowned.

Xu Anran shook her head. “I don’t know.”

Tao Ran sighed. “You’d better watch the news more. The person in charge of the Perfume Association has been suspended for investigation. The bidding is no longer valid.”

Xu Anran quickly took out her phone and searched for the follow-up to this matter. She found out that what Tao Ran said was true..
