No matter where Lin Shuâer went, she could forget her daughter, but she would never forget Ye Jun.
During lunch, she called Ye Jun. .
Knowing that Ye Jun was busy at the company and did not have time to go out for lunch, she immediately told him that she was having lunch at the Shi Guang Restaurant, which was very close to the company, and that she would deliver him a meal later.
She had promised to celebrate with Ye Qingran, but in the end, she quickly finished her meal and paid the bill. After asking Ye Qingran to take a cab back, she carried the insulated lunch box and left.
The moment Lin Shuâer left, Leng Xiao came over. âWhy did Auntie go back first? Is it because of me that she purposely left you here so that we could be alone for a while?â
Leng Xiao was not the only one who came over.
Murong Yichen also sat down.
He looked at Ye Qingran with a gaze that was filled with provocation and denial. âI really didnât expect you to be even more powerful than the ancient Hua Mulan.â
He was sarcastic and condescending.
How could Ye Qingran not hear it.
She smiled and pretended not to understand. She continued to eat her food and did not even raise her head to look at them. She only replied indifferently, âThank you for your compliment.â
Murong Yichen was choked and immediately became speechless,ââ¦â
How could she hear that he was complimenting her? He was obviously mocking her. This woman was really not just a normal thick-skinned person.
Ye Qingran looked at the two of them with a fake smile. âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll have to trouble the two of you to go back. Donât delay my meal.â
Leng Xiao had no intention of getting up at all. He placed his hand on the table and said, âYou eat. Iâll just watch you eat.â
Ye Qingran put down her chopsticks and said, âI donât like to be stared at by two strangers when Iâm eating.â
Murong Yichenâs expression was very unfriendly. He said softly, âPretentious.â
Leng Xiao still had a good temper and said, âWe should see each other and eat together more often. After a long time, weâll naturally become familiar with each other.â
This made Ye Qingran completely unable to recall the arrogant, haughty, cool, and unreasonable Leng Xiao that she had first met.
She replied, âI donât have time to play with you.â
Leng Xiao frowned slightly and his expression suddenly became serious, âIâm not playing. Iâm serious.â
Ye Qingran said, âWhether youâre playing or not, itâs the same to me because I donât like you.â
Murong Yichen could not understand why Leng Xiao had taken a liking to Ye Qingran.
What he could not understand even more was that Leng Xiao had taken a liking to Ye Qingran, and Ye Qingran had even said impatiently that she did not like Leng Xiao.
Who did she think she was? It was her fortune that Leng Xiao had taken a liking to her, and she actually dared to look down on him.
Murong Yichenâs expression immediately turned cold. âYe Qingran, youâve been pretending to be a man for too long. Is there something wrong with your eyes⦠?â
If it wasnât her eyes, then there should be something wrong with her brain.
Ye Qingranâs expression and tone had always been rather indifferent. It was neither fast nor slow, neither cold nor warm, unfamiliar and distant.
At this moment, her face suddenly darkened. Her gaze turned slightly cold as she looked at Murong Yichen, âIf you canât speak, then shut your mouth. No one will treat you as a mute!â
This Murong Yichen had been ridiculing her with his words. She did not pay attention to him not because she was afraid of him, but because she found it troublesome and disdainful.
Who knew that this Murong Yichen was getting more and more impudent.
Murong Yichenâs gaze turned cold. After all, no one had ever spoken to him like this before.
The cold air around him raged and spread outwards. He immediately wanted to scold Ye Qingran.
However, he was stopped by Leng Xiao, âErm, you can go back first. Iâll look for you later.â
Although Murong Yichen did not throw a tantrum at Ye Qingran.
However, seeing that Ye Qingran did not seem to care about it, he only thought that she was pampered and sheltered. She only dared to show her fangs and claws in front of him because Leng Xiao liked her.
He refused to leave and insisted on sitting there stubbornly. His gaze was unusually cold as he stared at Ye Qingran.
Leng Xiao laughed at him and coughed lightly, indicating for him to leave.
Murong Yichen looked up at the sky. He really wanted to know if Leng Xiao had been drugged by Ye Qingran. In the end, he stood up and returned to his original seat.
Leng Xiao looked at Ye Qingran and said, âIâm sorry. I apologize on his behalf.â
Ye Qingran raised her eyes and looked at him. âIf you really want to apologize, then sit back down with him.â
Leng Xiao said, âId I go back. Who will send you home later?â
Ye Qingran said, âThereâs no need. I have someone to pick me up.â
Leng Xiao said, âWho?â
Ye Qingran said, âMy boyfriend.â
âOh.â
Still not leaving.
Leng Xiao immediately thought of the man called Chu Yan. He was deliberately not leaving.
Last time, he thought that Ye Qingran was a man. At that time, after Chu Yan had introduced his relationship with Ye Qingran, he was stunned and immediately left.
It was more like escaping than leaving. His aura had weakened by more than half.
He had to get back at her for that dayâs incident.
Ye Qingran took out her phone and sent a message to Chu Yan: [ Brother, please pick me up. ]
Chu Yan replied her message almost instantly: [ Okay. ]
Ye Qingran shared the address of the Shi Guang Restaurant before continuing her meal.
Leng Xiao looked at Ye Qingran. âWhy do you dislike me so much? What is wrong with me? Tell me, I will change.â
Ye Qingran looked at his aggrieved face and felt as if she was seeing her old self. âYou are good in every way, but you are not my type.â
Leng Xiao asked again, âThen what is your type?â
Ye Qingran said, âHavenât you met my boyfriend before?â
Leng Xiao compared himself to Chu Yan in his heart and felt that Chu Yan was just that. He did not feel that Chu Yan was better than him.
He muttered, âI donât feel that your boyfriend is better than me.â
Ye Qingran said, âI canât continue your words.â
Leng Xiao said, âIs that so? You also feel that Iâm better than him.â
Ye Qingran narrowed her eyes and put on a fake smile. âItâs your words that are too blind. So blind that I canât continue them.â
Leng Xiao:ââ¦â
Youâre the one whoâs blind.
He canât even compare, one day, she will understand.
He thought for a moment and said, âIâll say it again, donât reject me so soon. After all, youâre still young. Iâm willing to wait for you.â
Ye Qingran opened her mouth slightly and was about to speak.
But she was interrupted by Leng Xiao again. âI know you might say that my actions will cause you a lot of trouble, but donât worry. After today, I wonât emphasize this issue anymore. Iâll only be by your side quietly.â
Ye Qingran said bluntly, âBut your appearance has made me feel very troubled.â
âIâm just appearing, how can it be troubling?â Leng Xiao was very affected.
âWhat you said just now was originally a kind of pressure. Let alone me, any other man would have the same thought,â Ye Qingran said.
Leng Xiao immediately said, âThen you can pretend that I didnât say anything.â
Ye Qingran:ââ¦â
How troublesome.
Forget it, I donât care about him.
She took out her phone and looked at it. It hadnât been that long, but this place seemed to be not far from where Chu Yan worked. He should be arriving soon.
