“No need for gifts, they can send the wrong message.
Just invite me to dinner!” Bo Jinyu said calmly and elegantly rolled up the car window.
The car then sped away.
Ye Anran didn’t even have a chance to correct herself.
She stood by the roadside, stunned.
Why did she feel that Uncle Bo’s personality didn’t match his appearance at all?
Why did she think that Uncle Bo was sneakily bad, so sinister!
But, after all the help he had given her, inviting him to dinner wasn’t too much to ask, was it?
It’s just…
Oh, no…
Ye Anran walked towards the dorm area while wrestling with her thoughts.
It was all Ai Zi’s fault!
Once she saw Ai Zi, she was definitely going to kill her!
“Anran, Anran, you can come back now!” Zuo Aiai stood at the dormitory’s iron gate, and as soon as she saw Ye Anran approaching, she ran over and hugged her tightly, tears welling up in her eyes: “Anran, I’m so sorry, it was all because I was foolish, I’ve been worried all night long…”
“Don’t try to play the sympathy card!” Ye Anran’s voice was biting.
“I’m not playing any sympathy card, I really was just being foolish.
I thought Uncle Bo was very handsome and then I thought if you got together with Uncle Bo, you could oppress Bo Youlin and Ye Rouxin without losing out, and since I’d always be by your side, I thought as long as Uncle Bo had bad intentions, I’d rescue you right away, but who knew, who knew his car would suddenly speed off like that, and the taxi just couldn’t keep up…” Zuo Aiai said through her tears, eventually breaking into sobs.
She was truly terrified and had sat at the dormitory entrance all night, unable to sleep, waiting for Anran.
Ye Anran initially thought Ai Zi was only pretending, but as she listened to her words and her crying, she gradually realized that Ai Zi was indeed scared.
“Stop crying, I’m fine,” Ye Anran said softly.
“Are you really okay?” Zuo Aiai lifted her head and looked at Anran.
“Do I look like someone who’s had something happen to them?
Uncle Bo is really nice, a complete gentleman.
He truly just let me stay over for the night, nothing happened,” Ye Anran raised her hands and said with a smile.
A nice person…
Zuo Aiai thought back to that look in the car last night, had she been so nervous that she had seen it wrong?
“However, Zuo Aiai, you may be spared a death sentence, but you won’t escape punishment.
You actually tossed me to a man; you’re really asking for trouble!” Ye Anran’s desire to kill Zuo Aiai surged again when she remembered being left with Uncle Bo.
“Wuwu, Mistress An, I know I was wrong, but before you kill me, you should go check your dormitory first,” Zuo Aiai said, recalling something, her expression not showing much remorse.
“Check what?” Ye Anran asked.
“Your stepmother and stepsister have been waiting for you in the dormitory!
They’ve been there for more than an hour.”
Li Xuewen?
Ye Rouxin?
What were they doing here?
Ye Anran’s expression instantly darkened when she heard those two had come.
Zuo Aiai actually thought that Ye Anran knew the reason her stepmother and half-sister were looking for her.
Seeing that she didn’t know, she laughed coldly, “I don’t know how they had the nerve to look for you after doing such shameless things to you.”
“I’ll know when I go inside.” Ye Anran’s expression became slightly indifferent.
“I’ll accompany you inside,” Zuo Aiai said, full of righteousness.
She was genuinely worried that Ye Anran would be at a disadvantage in front of those two!
When the two entered, Li Xuewen was standing at the door of the dormitory with a look of disdain, while Ye Rouxin still had a gentle and demure expression.
“Sister, you’re here,” Ye Rouxin greeted Ye Anran with an exceedingly sweet voice.
Her voice was so sickeningly sweet that it almost made one’s skin crawl.
Ye Anran’s brows slightly furrowed, her expression cold.
She had long been accustomed to Ye Rouxin’s false facade!
Zuo Aiai was far from as composed as Ye Anran; she just raised her eyebrows lightly and blurted out, “Damn, that’s so disgusting!”
She had never seen a woman so shameless.
Stealing her sister’s man and now pretending to be the picture of sisterly love!
How did Ye Rouxin manage that?
It was such a waste that she didn’t go into acting!
“Who are you?
Is it your place to speak here?” Li Xuewen, upon hearing Zuo Aiai daring to mock her daughter, immediately became furious and rebuked her sharply.
“Never mind who I am, this is my dormitory, how do I not have the right to speak?” Zuo Aiai jutted her chin up, marched over, bumped into Li Xuewen who was disdainfully standing in the corner of the door, and casually remarked, “Good dogs don’t stand in the way!”
Li Xuewen was bumped so hard she almost fell over, infuriated, “You woman, how can you be so uncouth, how did your parents raise you!”
Zuo Aiai was furious; her temper was explosive to begin with, and this attack had escalated to include her beloved parents, which was unacceptable!
She immediately turned her head, “I’m telling you, I hate it the most when someone speaks ill of my parents.
Dare to say one more word, and you’ll see what happens!”
Having said that, she shook her arm fiercely, with a menacing look on her face.
Li Xuewen glared at her, but after thinking it over, chose not to say anything more since her purpose for coming today was to ask Ye Anran to go back home, and she sure didn’t want any additional problems.
“Anran, let’s talk outside!”
“Whatever needs to be said can be said right here, I have class this morning,” said Ye Anran indifferently as she walked past Li Xuewen, her tone extremely cold, not giving Li Xuewen any face.
“Anran, what kind of attitude is this, I am after all your mother!”
“Mother?” Ye Anran laughed coldly when she heard her words, turned her head, and looked at her with an indifferent gaze, “Li Xuewen, I have never acknowledged you, and I hope you don’t flatter yourself!
You could never have given birth to a daughter as decent as me!”
“You… what kind of attitude is this!” Li Xuewen did not expect Ye Anran to speak to her in such an ugly manner, and immediately, her eyes narrowed with a venomous glare.
“Do I still need to have an attitude towards you?”
She had endured Li Xuewen and Ye Rouxin for a long time!
In the past, she maintained a superficial cordiality because she still wanted that family, still wanted a father, but after last night, she had realized that some things, if they weren’t yours, they simply weren’t yours, no matter how hard you tried, it was futile!
