Her father, Ran Zhonghai, is just an ordinary entrepreneur in A City... it doesn’t seem like anything impressive.
However, before Ran Xiangsi could answer, a cold voice came from behind.
"Why don’t you ask me directly?"
His voice sounded extremely cold, like the water flowing beneath the frozen river, hidden under a layer of ice, making it impossible to discern his emotions.
Lou Xining immediately realized he had asked an awkward question and quickly changed the subject with a smile, "Have you guys finished talking? Oh, it’s almost six o’clock, I have a date, so I’ll be going first!"
Saying this, he tried to slip away quickly!
Shang Dongyuan shook his head at Lou Xining’s attempt to escape, then turned to Xing Chen to say goodbye, "I’ll be leaving too."
After the two men had walked away, Ran Xiangsi finally stood up and smiled, "Lou Xining didn’t mean any harm, he was just curious."
From their conversation earlier, Ran Xiangsi suddenly realized that Lou Xining was actually a good person, just very curious and playful.
Xing Chen naturally knew Lou Xining meant no harm, but... "It doesn’t matter what others say, I chose you for a reason."
Upon hearing this, Xiangsi looked up in surprise, unsure as she gazed into Xing Chen’s dark eyes.
Was the reason he spoke so coldly to Lou Xining because he felt that Lou Xining’s words hurt her feelings? The source of this content ɪs NovᴇlFɪre.ɴet
Because her family background was so ordinary, being asked about such things would definitely make an average person feel a bit uncomfortable.
She was the strong Xiangsi, she wouldn’t fret over such matters!
"Of course! I’m so outstanding, you chose me because you have good taste!"
She quickly smiled, as if she had never been troubled before.
Seeing her cheerful and optimistic demeanor, Xing Chen felt his heart warm slightly.
As they walked towards the car, Ran Xiangsi felt the atmosphere was nice, so she brought up Feng Zilun’s matter.
"Can you let Feng Zilun go? If he gets into trouble because of me, I’ll feel bad..."
Upon hearing this, Xing Chen didn’t answer. Instead, he took out his phone and called Ping’an, "Release Feng Zilun."
After speaking, he put down his phone and reached out to open the car door.
Hearing him make the call, Ran Xiangsi’s large dark eyes curved into a smile, "Thank you."
The two got into the car and drove towards home.
By the time they arrived home, it was almost dark.
Ran Xiangsi thought she could finally go home to rest for a bit and relax, but as soon as she got out of the car, Housekeeper Wu came to greet them.
"Young Master, Young Madam, you’re back! The old lady has been waiting for quite a while!"
Hearing this, Xing Chen raised his slender eyebrows slightly, "When did she arrive?"
"She arrived in the evening. The old lady didn’t want me to notify you, so..."
Before Housekeeper Wu could finish, Ran Xiangsi started to feel cautious, "Um... I want to ask, the old lady... is?"
Why does she have a bad feeling about this?
"She is the young master’s mother!" Housekeeper Wu was a bit anxious. He wanted to tell the young madam that the old lady who came at noon was indeed the old lady, but the old lady didn’t allow him to...
He, who knew the truth, could only pretend to be confused. This feeling was truly unsettling!
Xing Chen didn’t seem to mind much. He had roughly guessed that his mother would come after their earlier phone conversation.
He was just about to step into the living room when he felt a force on his hand.
Turning around, he saw Ran Xiangsi’s bitter face, looking pitiful as she tugged on his hand, "I’m just a fake, shouldn’t I avoid meeting your mom? How about I take another stroll outside?"
