Chapter 92: Tightly Entwined Fate
"Okay... I understand..." Qi Jingchuan didn't know how to control himself to say these words.
He stood up and wanted to leave, he was afraid that his next move would scare Li Ran.
But he didn't expect that Li Ran gently pulled the corner of his clothes from behind.
"Brother Jingchuan, I like Brother Zhizhou as much as I like my brother. We have known each other for more than ten years, and he has long been integrated into my life like a family member. I can't imagine what life would be like without him, and I also can't imagine what life would be like without you."
Qi Jingchuan seemed like a drowning man who was rescued to the shore. He turned around and looked down at Li Ran who was holding his hand on the corner of his clothes.
"Do you... like a family member?" He couldn't help but confirm with Li Ran, but he was very nervous. If Li Ran also felt the same way about him as a family member, then he...
He thought he would silently protect Li Ran for the rest of his life, in a place where she could see him or not.
Li Ran nodded seriously, "They are my relatives, my most important relatives, the relatives I will never abandon forever, and the relatives I am willing to give everything for."
Qi Jingchuan didn't know what he was thinking. Relatives... Is he such an important relative...
Reason told him that he should accept the fact first and then consider the long-term consequences, but his emotions prompted him to speak.
"What about me? Am I also such an important relative of yours?"
Li Ran blushed suddenly. She thought of the conversation with Professor Han that day, and the figure that appeared in her mind when she said that she had someone she liked.
That figure was Qi Jingchuan.
This was the first time she faced her own feelings. Even though she didn't want to fall in love so early, she still couldn't say against her will that she regarded Qi Jingchuan as a relative and a brother.
Seeing that Li Ran blushed and didn't say anything, Qi Jingchuan reached out and held Li Ran's hand, shook it gently, and begged her to ask again.
"Xiao Ran, am I also your relative? Do you also consider me as your relative?"
Li Ran seemed to have mustered up her courage, "Brother Jingchuan... we are still young, I don't want to fall in love so early..."
Qi Jingchuan looked at Li Ran with sparkling eyes, as if he was a dying man who was saved.
"Then when our lovely Xiao Ran wants to fall in love, can brother be the first one to come? Can you consider brother first?"
Li Ran pulled her hand away from Qi Jingchuan's and ran out of the room shyly.
At the gate, Lu Zhizhou was leaning obediently against a tree, and the legal director had disappeared.
The moment Li Ran saw him, for some reason, her heart suddenly ached.
It was as if a huge hand was tightly grasping her beating heart. She felt strange but did not investigate further.
How could the hand of fate let anyone go so easily? She vowed to treat Lu Zhizhou as a relative, but was it really like that?
Can she really see her own heart clearly?
If fate is a string of stars, then when can the stars that are tightly entangled between Li Ran, Qi Jingchuan and Lu Zhizhou be completely untied?
Or maybe... it can never be solved?
