Xu Anran flipped open her phone's calendar. It was twenty-eighth of November, and today was her sister's birthday! Xu Anran was even more sure about the reason why Guan Jingyi went to America.

As for her, when she thought about it, the corner of Xu Anran's mouth curled up into a miserable smile. There was only a day between the two of them and their big sister's birthday.

"You silly child, why did you not knock on the door when you came back from the cold alone?" Aunt Guan was wearing a red thermal suit with a down jacket on top of it. On one side, she was pulling Xu Anran who was sitting on the ground as she scolded him.

"Come back a bit earlier in the future. If there's a next time, I won't open the door for you."

Xu Anran thanked him profusely and headed back to her dorm.

As soon as he opened the door and entered, he bumped into Ji Xiaoxiao who was going to the toilet.

When Ji Xiaoxiao saw Xu Anran, she said evilly: "Hey, isn't this the Shangguan Family's wife? You have such a good villa to stay in, why are you still squeezing into our crappy dorm? Oh my, it's already so late, why hasn't the driver brought you home yet? Did you have an argument with your husband? "

Xu Anran glared at Ji Xiaoxiao, and without saying a word, climbed up the top bunk of Xiao Wen's bed.

"There isn't much of a problem with Miss Xu's condition, it's just that the alcohol poisoning caused by excessive drinking and the surface of her body is slightly bruised." The doctor said to Guan Jingyi.

Guan Jingyi nodded, thanked the doctor, and returned to the ward.

Inside the sickroom, there was a breakfast that Ma Hui had bought, lying on the sickbed. Xu Xuexu did not have any appetite, and only when she saw Guan Jingyi walking in from the outside did her dimmed eyes light up slightly.

Guan Jingyi threw the suit on his arm onto the sofa. He was only wearing a black hand-made shirt with two buttons on the collar open, and a rare look of exhaustion appeared on his face.

"Did you drink again? And this time, you even caused such a disaster. Xuexu, what exactly happened to you? " Guan Jingyi had a rare bad temper. He reached out his hand, loosened his collar, and undid another button.

"I didn't know that it was a person from the underworld. He wanted me to accompany him for a drink and even brought me away, but I refused. He then used violence on me and it was only because I was in a hurry that I hurt him."

As Xu Xuexu spoke, she looked at Ma Hui from the corner of her eyes. She hoped that he wouldn't tell Guan Jingyi about what he had seen when he rushed in.

Guan Jingyi snorted coldly, but in his heart he was very clear that Xu Xuexu was not an innocent person. If she had fought back in the bar, she would have definitely escaped, since Ma Hui and a bunch of puppies were there, but this Xu Xuexu had intentionally left them behind and took a room with that man. It was only because she couldn't stand the perverted request of a man in bed that Xu Xuexu would hurt him.

It was just that these words, Guan Jingyi already knew it in his heart, and he didn't plan to say it out loud.

Guan Jingyi sighed, tapped on the sofa with his finger, and said: "Xuexu, there are a lot of things that just need to be done."

Guan Jingyi said, he took his jacket from the sofa and walked out, but was hugged by someone from behind.

After living with Xu Anran for such a long time, he had already gotten used to Xu Anran's smell. The faint smell of disinfectant from the water that she brought home from work.

"Jing Yi, it's my birthday today. Aren't you going to stay with me? After all, you just barely made it to the States to see me. "

Guan Jingyi's expression did not change, but he said indifferently: "Happy Birthday." Following that, Guan Jingyi opened his arms that were hugging himself and turned around to face Xu Xuexu. He said: "Xuexu, I've told you before, everything between the two of us ends here. "Of course, if there's anything else you need my help with in the future, I will do my best to help. After all, you are An An's elder sister."

Xu Xuexu thought that she was just hearing things, and looked at Guan Jingyi in disbelief.

"Jing Yi, what did you say? Are you Anthea's husband? Are you wrong or am I wrong? Didn't you say that you would divorce her when you married her? Didn't you say that you would marry me? "What's going on now?" Xu Xuexu shook Guan Jingyi's arm, but Guan Jingyi did not struggle away from her, allowing Xu Xuexu to shake him.

Guan Jingyi gave Xu Xuexu a polite smile and said: "That's what I want to say to you. Xuexu, all men change, and I too."

Guan Jingyi walked out, his leather shoes making a sound as he stepped on the ground. With every step, Xu Xuexu could feel that he was even further away from him.

"Guan Jingyi, you are truly heartless!" Xu Xuexu sat paralyzed on the ground.

Ma Hui looked at Guan Jingyi's back, and felt that this man was incomparably tall. At the very least, in this relationship, Guan Jingyi had given Xu Xuexu face, as he knew that Xu Xuexu had done all sorts of ugly things, but he had never once mentioned it in front of Xu Xuexu. The end of this relationship, in front of Xu Xuexu, could be attributed to him. However, it was clear that Xu Xuexu was still not aware of all this. She really thought that the reason why the two of them broke up was because of the words that Guan Jingyi had said, "Men can change."

"Miss Xu, you know very well what you have done. Who was the Fourth Master and what could he hide from him? Therefore, there's no need for you to pretend to be pitiful right now. " Ma Hui walked in front of Xu Xuexu and told him everything. His tone carried the ridicule and ridicule towards Xu Xuexu; after all, Ma Hui's magnanimity wasn't even 1% of Guan Jingyi's.

Xu Anran received a call from Guan Jingfeng very early in the morning. Originally, she was puzzled when Guan Jingfeng called her, since she and this Second Brother did not interact much other than the murder case.

"What? A sacrifice to the Ancestor?" Xu Anran knew that the Shangguan Family was a big family, but this was not a New Year fest.

"Old Fourth didn't tell you? The end of November is the day when the Shangguan Family pays their respects to their ancestors. Everyone has their places, I can't get through to the Old Fourth, I was just thinking to ask when you would be coming over. " Guan Jingfeng said.

Being asked by Guan Jingfeng, Xu Anran became somewhat troubled. This was because this matter of offering sacrifices to the ancestors was a very serious and formal matter. None of the women in the family were allowed to participate, except for the new daughter-in-law who had just entered the sect in the first year. Logically speaking, it was true that Xu Anran was the Shangguan Family's first year of marriage, but Xu Anran didn't know what Guan Jingyi was thinking. After all, Guan Jingyi had not told her about it before.
