The atmosphere at the scene was so quiet that it was awkward, so awkward that it was suffocating.
Si Jiu finally understood why Cheng Yuan, contrary to his usual behavior, wanted to send her upstairs.
Come to think of it, she had expected it.
She glared at Cheng Yuan unhappily: Just wait and see how I'll deal with you when I get back.
Cheng Yuan responded with a doting look: You can do whatever you want with me.
Seeing the two of them flirting openly, Ji's mother thought to herself that this brat had caused Ranran to be scolded by her school teacher, and now he was actually instigating her once well-behaved and lovely daughter to stay out all night! Thinking of this, she felt so angry and bitter that she wanted to just grab a broom and beat him out.
Father Ji coughed heavily and said, "Ran Ran, come here!"
Sijiu touched his nose and took a step inside, then heard Ji's father yell, "Don't come near my daughter."
Si Jiu turned around and saw Cheng Yuan's expression froze for a moment, then he calmly put down his raised foot and stepped in.
Ji's father's brows were twitching, and he gradually looked furious.
"Uncle and aunt, you should at least give me a chance to explain myself?"
"I think you are trying to quibble!" Ji's father roared.
Two people passed by their door and looked at the family standing at the door with the door open in surprise, wondering what they were doing.
The veins on Ji's father's forehead were bulging, and he was obviously very angry.
Cheng Yuan took two more steps inside at the right time and closed the door behind him.
Father and Mother Ji: “…”
Five minutes later, Ji's father and mother sat in the middle of the sofa, Si Jiu sat on the single seat of the sofa, and Cheng Yuan... sat on the small stool opposite them.
A tall man with long legs, sitting on a small stool with his legs bent, looks inexplicably funny.
However, few people present could laugh.
"It's you, kid?"
What Father Ji said seemed a bit nonsensical at first, but everyone present understood what he meant.
Si Jiu's eyelids twitched, and Cheng Yuan nodded without blinking, "Yes, it's me."
He looks frank and even a little righteous.
The blue veins on Ji's father's body that had finally subsided were about to burst out again.
"You lied to my daughter last night about where you went and what you did. You'd better tell the truth." Father Ji took a deep breath, but his hands on his legs clenched into fists uncontrollably.
"I was sick yesterday, and Ranran was worried about me, so she stayed in the hospital and took care of me all night."
Cheng Yuan's words caught Ji's father and mother off guard, and they felt that even his quibbling was so insincere that they flew into a rage, "You fart—"
A stack of bills and medical records were placed in front of Ji's father.
Father Ji: “…”
"Is that really the case?" Mother Ji's anger subsided slightly and she looked at her good daughter.
Si Jiu resisted the urge to hold his forehead and nodded calmly, "Yeah."
"So, I really didn't bully Ranran. If uncle and aunt are still worried, they can ask the doctors and nurses at the hospital, or watch the surveillance.
We simply spent the night in the hospital with each other."
A trace of disappointment appeared on the boy's face. "After all, Ranran is not yet an adult. How can I bear to bully her?"
Father Ji: “!!!”
What the hell are you so sad about? What are you regretting? What is Ning thinking?
"Wait, what do you mean? You mean, if you were an adult, you would, you would... who gave you the courage?!"
Father Ji slammed the table and stood up, "I don't agree. I absolutely won't agree!"
Because of this kid, Ranran was called to the office and taught a lesson, and even wrote a self-criticism. But what about this kid? Not even a trace of him.
Later, if his wife hadn't kept persuading him, he would have found out the boy's name and given him a beating.
But after only a few days? This kid kidnapped Ranran and stayed out all night!
This kind of person is not a good match at all.
"Uncle, Ranran and I are truly in love."
Sijiu: “???”
"And if it weren't for Ranran yesterday, I might have died. So, my life was saved by Ranran.
Our ancestors told us that we should repay even a drop of kindness with our own life.
In this life, no, even in the next life, or the life after that, I don’t want anyone else except Ranran.”
Father Ji couldn't catch his breath and almost fainted.
