Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 936 - 925: The Villain Mom’s Little One

"Why are you so good to me?" Ye Ran asked once more, staring at Huo Xian without blinking. Though she seemed strong, if Huo Xian backed off today, her heart might freeze over forever, never showing her vulnerable side like she did today.

Luckily, Huo Xian had deliberately forced her to reveal her true feelings, wanting to break through her inner defenses as he did now.

He looked earnestly into her eyes and said sincerely, "Because I like you."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ran’s eyes clearly showed emotional movement, but she wasn’t yet willing to easily release her emotions. She suppressed her feelings and said, "Do you know what I’ve been through?"

"I don’t know, but all I know is liking you is enough. I don’t care about those past events; I love the Ye Ran I know, who appears alive before me. Do you understand what I’m saying?" Huo Xian said, looking into her eyes, word by word.

"But you don’t understand what I’ve gone through. If you knew, you’d definitely despise me." Ye Ran felt somewhat broken, questioning why she had to meet Huo Xian under such circumstances. If they’d met a few years earlier, before those things happened, they might have been a very happy couple!

"Are you referring to those bastards assaulting you? I’ve told you, it wasn’t your fault, and I like Xiaoqiu too. I’ll treat her like my own." Huo Xian promised.

"No, it’s not just that." Ye Ran felt broken, shouting, "I’m not as good as you think I am. I’m not a good person. I’ve even thought about hurting others, and because of that I suffered others’ revenge. I was the one who caused my parents’ deaths. Everything I have today is deserved. Huo Xian, you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I’m truly guilty; I’m a bad woman not worthy of your love."

Hearing her say this, Huo Xian furrowed his brow, but Ye Ran gave a bitter smile, knowing no one would accept her true nature. She felt she didn’t deserve love at all.

"Ye Ran." Huo Xian furrowed his brow tightly, gripping her shoulders with both hands, "Why won’t you believe I truly like you? You know, I’m not a fool. I run such a big business and have negotiated so many contracts. Can’t I even judge a person correctly?"

Seeing Ye Ran look at him in a daze, he continued, "Perhaps you have made mistakes, but I like who you are now, do you understand? Moreover, everyone makes mistakes; the key is whether one recognizes their mistakes and knows their bounds."

"You don’t blame me for hurting others before?" Ye Ran pressed her lips.

Huo Xian didn’t answer directly but countered, "I ask you, has anyone suffered irrevocable harm because of your intention?"

Seeing Ye Ran shake her head, he continued to ask, "Have you done anything to cause someone to die, get hurt, or commit other crimes?"

"Ruined her career, wanting her to fall into disgrace, does that count?" Ye Ran hesitated for a moment before answering.

Huo Xian almost laughed in anger. So he worried for half the day, only to find that the terrible things she said about herself only amounted to this?

"Can you tell me why you wanted to ruin her career, why you wanted her to fall into disgrace?"

"She..." Ye Ran bit her lip, and under Huo Xian’s intense gaze, finally mustered the courage to say, "She’s my cousin, but she stole my fiancé. I used to love my fiancé deeply. I don’t understand; one is the person I was supposed to spend my life with, the other is the sister I trusted the most. Why did they team up to deceive me?"

Ye Ran gave a bleak smile, "They say they’re truly in love and say they’re sorry to me. But if he didn’t love me before, why get engaged to me? Since they already had an illicit relationship, why wait until I discovered it to hastily explain? Why did they have to humiliate me?"

"So you wanted to take revenge on them, right?" Huo Xian asked with little expression.

"Yes." Ye Ran’s eyes revealed defiance, "They made me a laughing stock, so I wanted her gone, wanted her to leave that city."

"And then your fiancé refused? Then came to hurt you?" Huo Xian’s eyes grew cold, clearly angry.

"I just wanted to create the illusion that my cousin was vain. I just wanted that person to understand I truly loved him. But no matter what I did, I’d always be exposed, and it was foolish of me, ultimately becoming a joke." Ye Ran laughed self-deprecatingly, looking very desolate.

"And then? Is your parents’ death related to your fiancé and cousin? Did they also instruct the people who assaulted you?" Huo Xian continued asking, determined to uncover all details.

"They? They were busy falling in love; how could they have time to care about my matters? It was their good friends who found me an eyesore, thought I was too awful, so they wanted to teach me a lesson. Those people kidnapped me and threw me into an abandoned factory."

Recalling that day, Ye Ran’s expression grew extremely ferocious: "The weather was very dark that day, and strong winds and heavy rain came. My parents couldn’t reach me, drove out late at night to find me. The rain was too heavy, collided with a truck. By the time I knew, they were already in the hospital morgue. It was also that night that I was assaulted."

After saying this, she looked at Huo Xian with eyes red as blood, "Why? I know I’ve made many mistakes, but why were my parents the ones punished? What did they do wrong? Yet those people, in the end, escaped legal punishment because their actions weren’t directly connected to my parents’ deaths, and the assaulters weren’t them. Moreover, due to their connections, they merely received verbal reprimands after kidnapping me for a whole night. Why? Why don’t they bear any consequences despite causing such fallout?"

Ye Ran screamed, appearing exceedingly resentful and angry, "I want revenge. I want those people to receive the punishment they deserve. Even if it costs me everything, I don’t care."

"Ye Ran." Huo Xian suddenly hugged her, his deep voice whispered in her ear, "Don’t be afraid."

Ye Ran didn’t respond, but said decisively, "Don’t love me anymore, it won’t lead to anything. I’m not worthy of your affection; you deserve someone better."

"You’re the best, Ye Ran. You don’t know how exceptional you are in my eyes. No one else moves me like you do. Shall we walk the path ahead together? Let’s take revenge together. There are better ways; they’re not worth you sacrificing everything." Huo Xian said resolutely, "I know you can give up everything, but what about Xiaoqiu? What would happen to her?"
