Wang Ziran, who had drunk himself sick at the bar, was in a very bad mood!
Even though he had won his argument with Su Ruiyi for the first time, he still didn't feel happy.
Taozi drove Wang Ziran to the hotel, which had become a haven for him and Taozi, a place they always came to seek solace.
Wang Ziran fumbled and grabbed Taozi. He was so drunk he couldn't tell who was in front of him, yet he kept calling out Su Ruiyi's name.
Wang Ziran confessed his love, apologized, and begged the blurry figure before him not to leave, over and over again.
Taozi: "Young Master Wang, look at me carefully. I'm not Su Ruiyi, I'm Taozi..."
Taozi guided Wang Ziran to see her as Su Ruiyi, while crying and explaining that she wasn't Su Ruiyi when Wang Ziran completely possessed her.
This gradually made Wang Ziran soberly realize that the girl beneath him was not the proud princess he loved to the bone.
Wang Ziran suddenly pulled away, apologizing as he grabbed tissues to wipe Taozi's tears.
Wang Ziran: "I'm sorry, I was drunk, it's my fault, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Taozi hugged him from behind while Wang Ziran had his back turned.
Her tears couldn't conceal her longing, and her scorching body temperature was transmitting a signal of her past trust to Wang Ziran, who was lost in a drunken stupor.
Taozi: "No, I said I was willing to be her for you. I've fallen in love with you, please don't leave me."
Wang Ziran: "Why can't Su Ruiyi be like you? If she had admitted her mistake that day, I would have forgiven her. I didn't want to argue with her..."
Taozi: "I... I don't blame her..."
Wang Ziran suddenly grabbed Taozi's hand, his eyes fixed on her with a pleading look.
Wang Ziran: "Taozi, don't let that video get out, and don't let your fans attack Su Ruiyi. I'll compensate you for her, okay?"
Taozi's heart sank. She thought she had defeated Su Ruiyi, but Wang Ziran still favored that rich girl! He'd rather beg her than let Su Ruiyi get hurt.
The more Taozi remained silent, the more anxious Wang Ziran became. He took out his phone and transferred money to Taozi.
Wang Ziran: "Buy whatever you want, as long as you don't say the person in the video is Su Ruiyi!"
Taozi's eyes reddened, and she bit her lip. Under Wang Ziran's repeated pleas, she finally nodded.
Wang Ziran smiled with relief and then lay down on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.
The naive Wang Ziran didn't notice Taozi clenching her fists tightly when she heard him begging her.
She wished Su Ruiyi would become the target of online attacks, but she knew that would only make Su Ruiyi seem more like a victim. Once Wang Ziran's sympathy for Su Ruiyi was rekindled, Taozi would lose her current position again.
Taozi knew she was no match for Su Ruiyi. Even if Su Ruiyi wasn't interested in Wang Ziran now, who could say for sure if Su Ruiyi wouldn't have a change of heart in the future?
Was the man who was most devoted to her in this world someone she could entrust her life to?
Taozi softly called Wang Ziran's name. It seemed Wang Ziran was fast asleep.
Taozi secretly picked up Wang Ziran's phone, unlocked it with his fingerprint, and found the message interface...
The next morning, the hotel room doorbell rang.
Wang Ziran sat up groggily, but the doorbell seemed insistent, not stopping until someone answered.
Wang Ziran shouted, "Who is it?" as he walked to open the door.
Wang Ziran: "Yiyi?!"
Wang Ziran: "What the hell!"
Just as Wang Ziran was about to close the door, Su Ruiyi quickly pushed it open.
Su Ruiyi: "What are you doing! You saw a ghost! Didn't you see I'm carrying all these things!"
Su Ruiyi: "It's just that my hair isn't brushed and my face isn't washed, it's not like I haven't seen you look messy before. Hurry up and move, these things are so heavy!"
Wang Ziran: "No, Yiyi, how did you find me? How did you know I was here!"
Su Ruiyi: "Listen to what you're saying. Did you drink too much again last night?"
Wang Ziran wanted to stop her, but he couldn't because Su Ruiyi was quick to evade.
Su Ruiyi: "What's wrong, hiding a woman? You've learned to stay out all night now! Watch me tell your mom!"
Su Ruiyi entered the room, placing the crayfish she bought on the table.
Su Ruiyi: "I queued up early this morning. I know you love crayfish, extra spicy. How about I..."
When Su Ruiyi turned around, she saw the clothes on the floor, which seemed to include women's underwear!!!
Looking further in, there was a pair of high heels by the bed!!!
Su Ruiyi's mouth hung open as her gaze shifted to the bed. A woman quickly wrapped herself in the quilt...
Wang Ziran: "Yiyi..."
Wang Ziran blocked Su Ruiyi's view with his body, but Su Ruiyi had already seen the woman's face!!!
Her head buzzed. Wasn't that woman the hypocritical influencer who had wronged her a few days ago?!
Su Ruiyi forcefully pushed Wang Ziran away. Just as she was about to rush over and pull back the bedsheet, Wang Ziran quickly ran in front of Su Ruiyi and blocked her.
Wang Ziran: "Yiyi, don't be like this..."
Su Ruiyi: "So... this is what you wanted to tell me?"
Wang Ziran: "It's not what you think..."
Su Ruiyi: "Wang Ziran, ever since you argued with me that day, I've been angry with you these past few days because I don't think I did anything wrong..."
"But the reason I came to find you today is that I really don't want to lose you as a friend!!!"
Wang Ziran quickly explained: "Taozi has already agreed not to blame you."
Su Ruiyi gave Wang Ziran a cold smile, then glanced at Taozi, who was pretending to be innocent on the bed. She finally understood.
Su Ruiyi: "Now I think my anger was justified, because you would abandon our years of friendship for that green tea bitch."
Wang Ziran: "Su Ruiyi, can you stop calling her a green tea bitch! She's gentler than you, more sensible than you, is she still a green tea bitch?"
Su Ruiyi: "Yes, green tea bitches are good at pretending to be gentle, pretending to be sensible, and can even sacrifice themselves to gain your pity!"
Wang Ziran: "Enough!!!"
Taozi quickly ran to Su Ruiyi wrapped in a bedsheet. She looked at Su Ruiyi pitifully and even reached out to explain for Wang Ziran.
Taozi: "Yiyi, it's really not like that. Wang Ziran was drunk yesterday, I was comforting him..."
Su Ruiyi flicked her hand away. It was probably a bit too strong this time, and she knocked Taozi over again. This time, Wang Ziran truly watched Taozi fall to the ground.
Su Ruiyi: "Don't touch me. Who do you think you are, calling me Yiyi?!"
Wang Ziran quickly crouched down to help Taozi. Taozi's voice was clearly choked with tears, and she seemed to be enduring pain as she rubbed her arm.
Wang Ziran: "Su Ruiyi, are you going to stop now! Are you going to lie again and say she fell on her own?"
Su Ruiyi: "I..."
Taozi: "It's okay, I don't hurt..."
Su Ruiyi: "Fine, I shouldn't have listened to Ou Yunchen and tried to reconcile with you!!!"
Wang Ziran stood up and stared at Su Ruiyi. Hearing Ou Yunchen's name was like adding fuel to the fire, and the anger in his eyes burned even more unrestrainedly!
Wang Ziran: "Then go find that slut!"
Su Ruiyi felt wronged by Wang Ziran for the first time. She held back her tears and turned to leave, but Wang Ziran regretted it.
The moment Su Ruiyi opened the door, he grabbed her arm!!!
He knew in his heart that even if Su Ruiyi pushed Taozi, was a rude girl who didn't admit her mistakes, so what!
That's because she was a princess! A princess didn't have to bow her head!!!
Su Ruiyi wiped away her tears and turned back to look at Wang Ziran.
Wang Ziran: "Yiyi..."
Su Ruiyi: "Remember when we were together in drAheshade,
But Light anew the wilderness,
My wilderness has made."
Su Ruiyi: "I prefer it when someone translates this poem into a simple sentence: 'Because I saw the sun, I can no longer bear the darkness'..."
Su Ruiyi: "As a friend in this last moment, I give you my final advice. If you love someone because she makes you a better person, then she is the one worth loving deeply..."
Su Ruiyi looked at Taozi, who was still sitting on the ground. She no longer felt hatred or anger, but simply said "Goodbye" faintly, then pried Wang Ziran's hand off and left completely.
