At night, when she met the Tan??s mother in the side hall, Qin Qian said in a good mood, "Mom, you don''t need to look for An Ran ?? Tan Yan has already promised me, he will stop contacting An Ran. "


    "Is that so?" "Tan??s mother was also happy for Qin Qian. Is this what Yan Er promised you? "


    Qin Qian nodded. He originally wanted to work with An Lun, but she has now cancelled it. "


    Tan??s mother revealed a gratified expression. This is best... Anyway, it is not something that only Andersen Group can cooperate with. "


    "Yes."


    "Then you and Yan Er should live a good life in the future, and you should stop worrying about the matters of the past between Yan Er and An Ran ??"


    "I know, I won''t think anymore nonsense, I will definitely live a good life with Tan Yan."


    "Yes."


    When she returned to his room, Qin Qian was wondering if she saw Tan Yan. When she arrived at the study room, she discovered that Tan Yan was sitting on the sofa in his study room with a ss of red wine in his hands.


    Qin Qian was about to go in when she heard Tan Yan''s mobile phone ring.


    Unavoidably disturbing Tan Yan, he stopped at the door.


    Tan Yan took out his phone from his jacket pocket. Seeing the number on the phone, his eyebrows deeply furrowed, and after a long while, he finally answered the call.


    "I thought I told you that back at the hospital ??"


    In that moment, Qin Qian guessed that the person who called was An Ran.


    Even though they were separated by such a distance and they couldn''t hear what An Ran said to Tan Yan clearly, she could still hear the sobbing sounds from the phone.


    "Indeed, you and I were once fated to be each other, but in the end, we are still fated to be each other."


    "I have already forgotten about you."


    "You can choose not to believe it, but what I''ve told you is the truth."


    "Please don''t call me again in the future, I don''t want to misunderstand."


    Seeing that Tan Yan ended his call with An Ran without any hesitation, Qin Qian''s eyes shone with tears.


    However, when Qin Qian was about to enter the study room, she saw Tan Yan leaning on the sofa, looking at the ceiling listlessly.


    Her legs instantly froze on the spot.


    Following that, Tan Yan held up the red wine in his hand and gulped down all the red wine without leaving a single drop behind.


    Qin Qian was no longer able to move her legs.


    At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard.


    Seeing that it was Qian''er from afar, afraid that Qian''er would see her like this, Qin Qian immediately retreated to the corner.


    After seeing that the object in Qian''Er''s hand was the personal item that An Ran had ced in the guest room, Qin Qian suddenly walked over to the door of the study room.


    "Boss Tan, this is the item left behind by the Miss An. Young Madam has instructed us to send it to you." Qian''er said respectfully.


    "When An Ran is discharged, I will go to the hospital. I will bring these things there." Tan Yan said to Qian''er in a deep voice.


    "Alright." Qian''er left immediately.


    Qin Qian retreated to a huge vase in the corridor and waited for Qian''er to leave before returning to the entrance of the study.


    From afar, she saw Tan Yan taking out a piece of letter from his personal belongings and reading it for a long time.


    Qin Qian could only look at Tan Yan''s back, and was unable to tell his current expression, but she could feel that he was extremely depressed.


    His usually straight back seemed to be somewhat weak at the moment.


    He couldn''t help but hold the wine cup and gulp down a mouthful of red wine. Only then did he realize that there was no longer any red wine in the cup.


    He set the wine cup on the side and returned the letter back into the box that held An Ran''s personal belongings. Then, he took out an item from the box.


    In the next second, Qin Qian saw Tan Yan take out a ne from the box.


    She took a closer look and realized that it was actually a Starfish Ne.


    She was stu


    ed for a moment and couldn''t help but raise his hand to feel the small, exquisite, and diamond-encrusted starfish he wore around her neck. He suddenly realized that the ne Tan Yan was holding was exactly the same as the one he wore around her neck.


    She was stu


    ed for a long time ??


    Could it be that Tan Yan had already given his the ne before?


    So, Tan Yan really saw her as just a substitute for An Ran?


    Tears unconsciously rolled down his cheeks.


    Just then, Tan Yan took out the phone from his jacket pocket again.


    Qin Qian originally thought that he would call An Ran, but in the end she didn''t.


    He called An Xin to see An Ran as his own father.


    "Uncle An, after we leave the hospital again, I might need some time to recuperate before I canpletely recover. I hope that you all can take good care of her ??" I''m sorry about what you made me think about before, but my answer is the same as what I said to you back then. I know that in this past rtionship, I owe An Ran. But in this life, I can only owe her ?? I hope that you can lead her out of her current depression, and that her future life will be happy, so I sincerely wish her well here. "


    Qin Qian''s tears began to fall like pearls with a broken string ??


    Her vision became more and more blurry, to the point where she could no longer clearly see Tan Yan''s figure ??


    Tears continued to flow down Qin Qian''s face even after she returned to her room.


    All the dreams in his heart for the future had all turned into ashes at this moment ??


    She knew that Tan Yan had not forgotten about An Ran, but when he faced this reality, she was not as strong as she had imagined ??


    After seeing the Starfish Ne and hearing the kind words "again", she was finally able to confirm that she had been a substitute for Ran from the very begi


    ing ??


    When Tan Yan was breaking up with An Ran, he met her ??


    Hepletely treated her as An Ran. He gave her the Starfish Ne and started to entangle her crazily in the hotel ??


    Later on, because she knew his identity, she took the initiative to leave him, and he did note to find her ??


    She had always thought that it was also because he was aware of the great disparity between their identities. He knew that there wouldn''t be any results between them, so in those years, he had ced all his focus on his career ??


    If not for the fact that Miu Miu''s autism was so severe that the Tan''s couple had sent people to look for her, they probably would not have continued their fates at all ??


    She now understood everything ??


    He deeply loved An Ran and had never changed. However, because she had once again appeared in his world, he had to take responsibility ??


    Yes, all along, he had been in charge ??


    He treated her extremely well, but it was because he thought that she was An Ran in a daze ??


    But now, An Ran had revealed her intentions once again. It was a pity that he could no longer continue their rtionship because his cultivation and morals did not allow him to abandon her and her child ??


    However, in his heart, he was still grieving over this heartfelt and unforgettable emotion from the begi


    ing until the end ??


    In the end, his reminder to Father An showed the reluctance and worry in his heart ??


    She had really convinced herself not to care about their previous rtionship, but ??


    At this moment, it was as if an ant was gnawing on her heart. That fine and sharp pain spread through her limbs and bones ??


    Her heart was in pain, in pain ??


    Until she felt like she couldn''t even breathe.


    Should she really continue to deceive herself like this?


    Could she really pretend to be happy?
