C155 Selfish

It was just a simple sentence, but it was like throwing a stone into a pond, waking Shangguan Lingwan up.

She suddenly realized that this was reality. Perhaps childhood sweethearts were not very useful in novels. At most, they would be a vicious side character or a sweet protagonist in love, but... In the Wealthy Class, childhood sweethearts were an important existence.

Why did his parents like "doll kissing" so much? It was simply because they were close to each other, and the harmonious relationship between them was reflected in their children.

The parents of wealthy families rarely paid attention to the feelings of their children. On the surface, those offspring of wealthy families were bright and beautiful, but their lives were usually controlled by their parents. Just like marriage, most of them were well-matched.

Shangguan Lingwan might be an exception among the wealthy families because of her brother's love and the indulgence of her parents. She could fall in love with an ordinary person, Liu Yuxuan, or she could choose her own love freely. But this price was that Shangguan Shaoze had to shoulder the entire family.

Shangguan Lingwan felt selfish more than once, even though Shangguan Shaoze did not mind.

Miss Gray married into a rich family, from an ugly duckling to a white swan. This was actually a rare occurrence. It was not that there was such a thing in a Wealthy Class family, but most of them died before the seed developed. Most of the Wealthy Class parents cared about matching families, not true love.

Indeed, the Shangguan family and the Yin family were equal, but don't forget, the Ling Family.

Shangguan Lingwan had investigated and found out that the Ling Family and the Yin family had been close since ancient times. The two families had supported each other to reach their current status, even after a period of time. The Yin family was glorious, and the Ling Family had gradually fallen. However, the Yin family's love and loyalty were also reflected here. It did not abandon its old friend just like that.

Yin's mother practically treated Ling Ruolan as her future daughter-in-law, and what she wanted to marry was... Naturally, it was the eldest son of Yin family, Yin Hanchuan. Although Yin Hanchuan and Ling Ruolan were not actually engaged, in the eyes of outsiders, the two of them were already considered unmarried. If Shangguan Lingwan had not intervened, almost everyone would not have suspected that the two of them would be together.

Ling Ruolan could tell from Shangguan Lingwan's expression that her thoughts had changed and immediately felt somewhat proud, "Miss Shangguan indeed also thought of the problem. You must know that our marriage in the upper class takes our parents' opinions very seriously. Furthermore, Hanchuan is a filial person. Do you think that if the auntie uses some tricks? Will he still insist on marrying you? "

In short, what's the use of having equal social status?

Shangguan Lingwan pursed her lips. She only felt that her body was a little cold, as if she had fallen into winter. Her entire body was stiff from top to bottom, making people unable to move. This kind of feeling was very painful and almost made people despair.

"So?" She spat out a few words with difficulty.

However, in Ling Ruolan's eyes, her actions were nothing more than a struggle for death. "Miss Shangguan, you were not liked by Auntie to begin with, and now you have caused Liu Yuxuan's matter. Are you sure Auntie will still support you to go through the door?"

Ling Ruolan's words were undoubtedly exposing Shangguan Lingwan's bloody scar. How could she not know that Yin's mother did not like her? She could tell from that time when she was in university. It was just that because she fell in love with Yin Hanchuan, she had always avoided him. But now, how could she let others avoid him?

"So what if the Shangguan family has taken measures? Many people in the capital think that you and Liu Yuxuan are a match. If you continue to pester Hanchuan... If you continue to pester ___, it will be said that you are on two different ships. You also don't want Hanchuan to have this kind of laughable reputation, right?"

" Enough! " Shangguan Lingwan almost roared, "Ling Ruolan, take back your thoughts. Do you think I don't know what you want to do?"

"Yes, you know, but so what? Can you stop it again?" Ling Ruolan laughed wildly.

Shangguan Lingwan slammed the table and stood up but was stopped by Ling Ruolan, "Miss Shangguan, don't be agitated. I was just casually saying it."

"Move aside." Shangguan Lingwan's voice was somewhat suppressed.

"No."

"Get out of the way." Shangguan Lingwan could not hold it in anymore and pushed Ling Ruolan away. Who knew that Ling Ruolan's body fell and actually hit the wall.

She wailed and her body fell onto the ground, "Ah!"

Almost at the same time, a few people rushed in and saw the one on the ground. Ling Ruolan said, "Something happened!"

Shangguan Lingwan was at a loss for what to do with this change. Someone had already called "119."

Looking at the busy crowd, Shangguan Lingwan looked at Ling Ruolan who did not move and felt that this woman's unconscious appearance was mocking her.

At the hospital.

Shangguan Lingwan sat alone in the quiet corridor. Occasionally, someone would rush past and the sound of footsteps could be heard.

Ling Ruolan was not in a serious condition. She was just in a coma. Shangguan Lingwan did not know why she felt lucky, but she was more angry.

Of course, she knew that Ling Ruolan could not be so weak. Everything was just a scheme that she had set up for herself.

But so what? She could not expose her.

She buried her head into her arms. When she felt someone standing in front of her, she raised her head.

Yin Hanchuan.

"Why are you here?" Shangguan Lingwan slowly opened her mouth. Her voice was a little hoarse and carried endless vicissitudes.

"The doctor called me and said something happened to Ling Ruolan." He looked at Shangguan Lingwan's pale face. He took off his coat and put it on her thin shoulder. "Someone said you did it."

Shangguan Lingwan smiled bitterly. She could not see anything wrong with Yin Hanchuan's face. "So what if I did it? So what if I did not do it?"

She closed her eyes and opened them again. "Yin Hanchuan, what kind of answer do you think you want?"

She thought he would be furious. No matter what, Ling Ruolan was his childhood friend. However, he told her, "I don't want an answer."

Then, he hugged her. "I believe you."

The familiar gentleness almost made Shangguan Lingwan's eyes instantly wet. She was immersed in this tenderness. Even if she had to face the painful reality, she still could not leave this man she was attached to.

"Yin Hanchuan, I am very happy to meet you." Shangguan Lingwan choked and broke away from Yin Hanchuan's embrace. Tears rolled down her cheeks and fell on her clothes. It dyed the water on her clothes. "But, Yin Hanchuan, it's not worth it. Do you know that everything is not worth it? "

That's right. Everything was not worth it. She is already selfish enough, seizing her brother's freedom, how can she continue to be selfish.

"Let's break up."
