Suddenly Showed Up

Liu Yan missed the shot and handed the pool cue to Mu Ran.

Mu Ran did not take the pool cue that Liu Yan handed over like before. Instead, she walked to the shelf and picked a new one. She returned to the billiard table and simply waxed it.

"She really like to put on a show." Miao Man muttered softly.

Liu Yan stared at Mu Man. Although she still looked the same as before, her aura had changed.

It was as if she had changed into a different person.

As expected, Mu Ran's beautiful strike sent two balls into the pocket at the same time.

Miao Man was about to complain about Mu Ran's good luck, but she then saw Mu Ran nailed her stokes consecutively at an extremely fast speed. Mu Ran stroked a ball in every single shot. Then, the cue ball always stopped at the right spot!

One perfect shot was a coincidence, but Mu Ran did it several time! It was skill, not luck.

Liu Yan was also stunned. Seeing that the balls on the table were getting fewer and fewer, she could not help but panic. If Mu Ran scored two more balls, the game would be over.

It ended with her and Miao Man's failure.

Out of fear, Liu Yan's entire body was trembling.

She was not very smart since she was young. At home, she was always scolded by her father. She was outclassed by her brother and sister. When she was a student, she stuck to Mu Ran because Mu Ran was a popular person in the school. She wanted to be as likable as Mu Ran, so she followed her closely.

Unfortunately, the school debate team's failure made her a joke in the class. Many people pointed fingers at her.

It was the same when she attended the class reunion after graduation.

They all had their own small circle. She could not even speak, so she could only stay in a corner silently. She always asked Mu Ran when she would attend the class reunion, hoping to have someone to talk to. But Mu Ran had disappointed her for six years.

So, when Miao Man talked to her, Liu Yan didn't hesitate to befriend with her. Even if Miao Man told her to against Mu Ran, she didn't mind, because Miao Man promised not to let her be bullied again.

However, if she lost and embarrassed Miao Man, everything would be over.

Liu Yan panted heavily. She snatched the cue ball from the table and held it in his hand.

"What are you doing? It's not your turn yet!"

Wang Man snatched the white ball. "Why? Are you trying to play dirty just because you can't win?"

"Mu Ran, you're a bully. You acted like you didn't know how to play at all." Liu Yan had already lost her rationality. She pointed at Mu Ran and scolded angrily, "Miao Man doesn't know how to play. How can I win against the two of you alone?!"

"What nonsense. You chose to play billiards and you chose Miao Man as your teammate. When you were in the lead, did you say anything? Now, you're saying that we're bullying people because you're about to lose. You are being ridiculous now! You're the one who set the rules!"

Liu Yan only said one sentence, and Wang Man retorted back. As a lawyer, when the defenders didn't have any reason, she would always speak eloquently. Moreover, they didn't do anything wrong, and they were being accused, so Wang Man was even more justified.

"What are you guys doing?"

A familiar voice sounded. Mu Ran turned around and saw Fu Ting walking towards them with a cold face.

Miao Man did not expect Fu Ting to come, and her body went limp and fell down. Fortunately, Fu Ting had already walked to her side and helped her up.

Miao Man leaned on Fu Ting's shoulder. Her eyes were tired, and her body was still trembling slightly.

"Ting, why are you here?"

Fu Ting's face was still expressionless. "You should rest well at home. It's fine to attend the class reunion, but don't you know that playing billiards consumes energy?"

Miao Man bit her lips pitifully, hesitating and not knowing what to say.

Mu Ran looked at Fu Ting.

She didn't expect Fu Ting to attend the class reunion for Miao Man, even though he like to.

In the past six years, she had begged Fu Ting to attend the class reunion with her, but Fu Ting rejected her because he was too busy with work. He even said that the social interactions at the class reunion were all ineffective and a waste of time.

Mu Ran was sure that Fu Ting was very principled, but she didn't expect he would break his principle for Miao Man.

Mu Ran felt extremely upset. It wasn't because of the relationship between Fu Ting and Miao Man, but because she was too nave in the past. Six years of marriage and ten years of love were all fed to the dogs.

Fu Ting treated her far less well than he treated Miao Man.

"Ah Ting, I'm tired. Let's go back." Miao Man pulled Fu Ting's sleeve and said softly.

Fu Ting supported Miao Man as they walked out. When they passed by, he frowned and looked at Mu Ran.

"Wait."

Mu Ran stopped them.
