Mo Chi felt aggrieved for not celebrating such a joyous occasion. He wanted to take her out for a meal, but he was worried that the food outside would be dirty.
“It’s fine. If you really want to reward me, just let me eat spicy crayfish at home.” Eating spicy crayfish wasn’t a dampener, but it was also considered low-key. But the main reason was that Qin Ran was craving it.
What a glutton.
“I’ll go to work later. The results have been checked, and I’m bored staying at home. There’s no one to play with me, so I can only play games,” Qin Ran said. There were many uncles and aunties in the Mo Residence, but they could not chat together.
“Okay.” Mo Chi felt that the lass in front of him had an endless spirit and couldn’t stay idle. He himself had to rush back to the company too. After all, he was already forty minutes late for the second half of the year’s work planning meeting that was going to be held at ten o’clock.
She was still wearing the simplest denim A-line skirt, canvas shoes, and a purple short-sleeved shirt with a square collar. In addition, Qin Ran had tied her hair up into a bun. From afar, she looked like an ordinary university student.
She wanted this kind of ordinary feeling.
After busying herself in the bookstore for a while, it was time for lunch. Qiao Tong pestered Qin Ran to go and eat Wei Cuisine.
“Let’s ride on my electric bike. We’ll be there soon. We definitely won’t delay our work in the afternoon. Qin Ran, accompany me.”
Qin Ran knitted her brows tightly and was extremely unwilling. However, when she saw Qiao Tong’s coquettish and begging appearance, she could not help but laugh. “Alright then.” Qin Ran spread out her hands helplessly.
Although it was the afternoon of the end of June, there was a breeze blowing, and it wasn’t too hot. Qin Ran sat in the backseat of the electric bike and leisurely hummed a song.
“Isn’t this the working sister, Qin Ran?” An ear-piercing sound came from a BMW sports car. Qin Ran raised his eyes and met Zhang Lan’s annoying face. Initially, she didn’t want to be bothered about her, but Qin Xue, who was driving, directly blocked the front of the electric bike.
“Sis, where are you going? Let me send you off.” Qin Xue got off the BMW and looked at her with concern.
“No need,” Qin Ran said disdainfully.
“Then do you know where we are going?” Zhang Lan looked at Qin Xue with a flattering look and continued, “We are going to celebrate for Xiao Xue. To congratulate Xiao Xue for obtaining 621 points in the college entrance examination.”
This was not surprising. Heiresses like them had been taught from a young age. Coupled with the fact that they studied in private high schools that were highly qualified, it was natural for them to score more than 600 marks.
But a mere 621 points was considered extremely high?
“Xiao Lan, why are you saying this?” Although I did well, I had to be humble and low-profile. This was the expression on Qin Xue’s face.
“What about you? How many marks did you get?” Zhang Lan had a strong smell of inferior perfume on her. Coupled with her face, Qin Ran felt disgusted.
“That’s right. Sis, how much did you get?” Qin Xue asked.
“I don’t know. I haven’t checked yet.” Qin Ran only wanted to leave.
“Did you not check it, or are you too ashamed to say it?” Zhang Lan pursued relentlessly. “You were originally a wild girl from the countryside, and you’re also a student who’s been retained in our school. I’m really curious what kind of amazing marks you can get.”
Qin Ran could not help but roll her eyes. Please, ignorant Miss Zhang, everyone needs to be demoted from last minute transfer. This was the most basic common sense.
“It’s not that shocking. In any case, it’s higher than yours.”
Zhang Lan sneered, her tone full of disdain. “Even if you want to puff yourself up at your own cost, you have to consider your actual situation first! Xiao Xue and I have been in the elite class since we were young, especially Xiao Xue, who has always been a top student. How can you be compared to us?”
“Xiao Lan, don’t say that.” Qin Xue held Zhang Lan’s hand and acted as if she was protecting Qin Ran. “Sis, how many points did you get?”
“I don’t know yet.”
Qin Ran, who was ranked in the top ten of the province for the college entrance examination, did not know exactly how many marks she had scored at that time. But the two ignorant people before her thought that it was Qin Ran who did not dare to check the scores and became even more arrogant.
“You don’t even dare to check your marks and you still have the cheek to say that it will be higher than Xiao Xue’s score.”
“I’m definitely higher than her,” Qin Ran replied.
Zhang Lan took a step back and sized up Qin Ran while shaking her head. “Then why don’t we make a bet? If Xiao Xue does better than you, you will call her ‘Master’ in front of everyone.”
Zhang Lan looked down on Qin Ran. She felt that Qin Ran was just bluffing and feeling guilty. Of course, the biggest reason why she made this bet was to curry favor with Qin Xue. It was probably because her own kind understood their own kind better. Even though Qin Xue had always been magnanimous, she knew that this sister of hers had always been a thorn in her eyes.
