Chapter 169 Reencounter with Guan Yi
A thoroughly enjoyable exam.
Zhou Ran finished successfully and went to the restroom with her hands behind her back.
When he came out, he saw Xia Cheng'an standing at the end of the corridor waiting for him.
"What is it, gloomy young man? What do you want with me?"
Xia Cheng'an looked down at Zhou Ran.
"So what if you're tall? Who gave you permission to look down at me?"
Zhou Ran glared angrily at Xia Cheng'an.
This guy was unlikable from the very first time we met.
It's still not likable now, like a dark mushroom.
Xia Cheng'an heard Zhou Ran's disdain,
I wasn't angry, but I smiled.
That's great! Zhou Ran's attitude is the same as before.
Besides my brother, he also trusts me.
Xia Cheng'an's handsome appearance and radiant smile are simply a beauty overload, too unfair.
That's a really silly laugh.
For a moment, Zhou Ran felt that the person standing in front of her was Xia Chengping, that idiot.
No wonder they're brothers who share the same face!
Xia Cheng'an took advantage of Zhou Ran's momentary lapse in attention.
She reached out and hugged Zhou Ran tightly in her arms.
He'll hold me for a little while, just a little while.
Blinded by the smile, Zhou Ran reacted too slowly and couldn't dodge in time.
Xia Cheng'an gave him a big hug.
Zhou Ran felt the chill emanating from her embrace.
My first thought was that this kid truly lived up to his reputation as a gloomy mushroom; he was really cold.
The tip of the nose carries a cool, refreshing fragrance unique to young people.
It smells like snowflakes falling in winter.
Clean and cool.
It tastes completely different from Xia Chenggan's.
What's wrong with this kid?
Not wanting to be a gloomy mushroom anymore?
Has Xia Chengping's sunny but silly persona been changed?
You're hugging me too tightly, you brat, you're so strong.
Zhou Ran pushed Xia Cheng'an hard.
His palm touched Xia Cheng'an's chest.
Surprisingly, the feel of the ball was pretty good. This kid works out regularly and has a good physique!
He struggled twice but couldn't break free.
Zhou Ran shouted,
"Kid, let go. I'm not someone you can just hug whenever you want."
Xia Cheng'an ignored him completely and hugged him even tighter.
Taking advantage of the situation, he rested his chin on Zhou Ran's shoulder.
She said it in a coquettish tone.
"Let me lean on it for a while, just for a little while."
"Stop fooling around, I'm your sister-in-law."
Although immoral literature is popular now,
But I don't have that preference.
Hehehe!
Xia Chengan chuckled softly.
Zhou Ran always gives people unexpected feedback.
"I didn't, I can't even hug you once, how could you let that idiot Xia Chengping hug you."
"Can you compare yourself to that kid Xia Chengping? He's really stupid!"
He's so silly that you can't help but comfort him.
Xia Cheng'an realized that Zhou Ran hadn't finished speaking.
She said, "I'm stupid too, so stupid I need comforting!"
Even intelligent people need comfort.
Too many things have happened during this period, especially after Xia Chengping's incident.
The pressure on him has increased dramatically.
He couldn't hold back any longer.
I need some comfort.
Zhou Ran patted him on the back.
Since his elder sister-in-law has become his mother, he'll temporarily act as the boy's father.
Zhou Ran was still thinking smugly.
Hmph, it's not like the days when I looked down on him from a high and mighty position.
He preferred Xia Chengan's unruly demeanor.
"Don't speak ill of me!"
"What I think is none of your business. Have you had enough of hugging me? If you take advantage of me again, I'll charge you."
Zhou Ran didn't indulge him at all.
These gloomy children like to push their luck.
They're taking advantage of others and acting innocent after getting something for nothing.
A few slaps are more effective than a hug.
Xia Chengan released Zhou Ran.
You're so unlovable!
"Likewise."
Zhou Ran patted her clothes in disgust.
Xia Cheng'an was furious.
"I'm not dirty."
"I find you dirty."
"Zhou Ran, can't you treat everyone equally?"
Xia Chengan's eyes reddened.
Why are you so nice to that idiot, yet you despise him?
You all side with that idiot and don't like me.
Zhou Ran was familiar with this scene.
Xia Cheng'an's eyes reddened.
Without a second's delay, a slap landed.
He had excellent control over his strength.
It can wake someone up without leaving a mark.
It was an experience I gained from Xia Chenggan.
"Awake?"
"Um."
Xia Chengan nodded; he had been getting a bit stuck on things lately.
The slap was just right to wake him up.
"I knew it. When it comes to you brothers, a slap is more effective than a hug."
When he gets the chance, he'll go and slap the third brother a few times.
That kid is no pushover either.
The only mentally challenged person in the family is lying in the hospital.
None of the rest were any good.
Are you investigating Xia Chengping's recent affairs?
Xia Cheng'an leaned against the wall and turned his head to look at Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran has an absolutely harmless face; it's too deceptive.
He always makes people let their guard down.
Actually, this person is a man-eating flower inside.
They bite off a piece of flesh without hesitation.
"No, don't look for me. I won't get involved in your dogfighting. If you want to get involved, go find Xia Chenggan, your good older brother. Don't look for me."
Since he discovered the evidence, it has pointed directly to the Xia family.
Zhou Ran then stopped paying attention.
If an outsider like him gets involved in this kind of infighting between family members, he'll definitely become cannon fodder.
He's foolish and likes to cause trouble for himself.
"Hehe, it really is dogs fighting dogs."
Zhou Ran glanced at him; when this guy got angry, he even cursed himself.
How did your exam go?
"Very good, at least you're better than me!"
Zhou Ran was furious; this was blatant contempt.
He's a good student, isn't he?
That brat is really unlikable.
She had previously complained about his height, and now she complained about his poor academic performance.
Every word hit him where it hurt.
"Take this!"
Zhou Ran lunged forward and slapped Xia Cheng'an.
Xia Cheng'an didn't dodge, but reached out and held Zhou Ran's head.
Zhou Ran waved her two short arms, but her clothes didn't touch him at all.
"Hmph, if you're so capable, then don't resort to underhanded tricks."
"No, I can't stand it! What can you do to me?"
"Teacher, what brings you here?"
"Don't try to scare me or distract me by mentioning the teacher. I won't fall for it."
Xia Cheng'an did not believe Zhou Ran's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Just as he was feeling smug.
The teacher's voice came from behind me.
"No playing or fooling around in the hallway. Class is about to start, so hurry back to the classroom."
"Teacher! I understand!"
Xia Cheng'an instantly transformed into a well-behaved student, concealing the shock on his face and obediently agreeing.
Teachers are especially tolerant of good students.
Nod and walk away as if you didn't see anything.
Taking advantage of Xia Cheng's obedience, Zhou Ran kicked him in the leg.
He turned and ran, determined not to give Xia Cheng'an a chance to retaliate.
Xia Cheng'an patted his dirty trouser leg, his gaze fixed on Zhou Ran's back.
His eyes deepened and then lightened, finally settling into calm.
It's a pity about his older brother; if it were anyone else, he would have attacked more forcefully.
It doesn't matter if he's male or female, or whose he is.
He will snatch anything he sets his sights on.
Unfortunately, he couldn't beat his eldest brother in that regard.
Back in the classroom, before school was over, Zhou Ran received a message from Guan Yi.
They've been chatting a lot lately.
It's all just empty praise.
The offline chat between elementary school students made Zhou Ran almost too lazy to even bother with perfunctory responses.
With such a huge bait right here, Guan Yi was overly cautious.
It still won't bite.
Guan Yi offered the usual inquiries about his situation and expressed her concern for him.
After chatting for a few minutes, he finally revealed his purpose.
I was out of town for the past couple of days and just got back. There's a brand event coming up the day after tomorrow. Do you have time to go together?
The fox's tail has finally been revealed.
And it came out big one right away.
Zhou Ran agreed without hesitation.
【Great! Great! I'm free the day after tomorrow, it's the weekend. Around what time? Is there anything I should be aware of?】
"It will start around 1 PM. Reporters will be taking pictures. I'll prepare your clothes; please arrive about half an hour early. I've already arranged for a makeup artist."
Okay, I'll be on time. See you then.
See you then.
Zhou Ran closed the chat window and then sent a message to Nan Zi.
[Nanzi, I can't go out with you the day after tomorrow. Someone invited me to a brand event.]
Nanzi replied almost instantly.
Who invited you? What kind of meet-and-greet is this?
[It was Brother Guan Yi who invited me to a meet-and-greet event for a brand called xx.]
Zhou Ran told the truth and waited for the other party's message.
Watching the other person's input change back to normal, then back to input.
Zhou Ran smiled; it seemed Nan Zi would be going too.
Sure enough, the message came through.
Those meet-and-greets aren't simple events; you'd be at a disadvantage if an ordinary person went. I happen to be free that day, so I'll go too.
But I had a friend take me, so I can't take you with me.
Zhou Ran pretended to be in a difficult position.
It's just a meet-and-greet with a big star. If he wants to go, he can bring someone along, or even smash things up, and nobody will say a word.
However, after acting for so many days, using entrapment tactics, the fish immediately took the bait.
He won't mess it up.
It's okay, you don't need to. I'll have a friend take me. See you then.
【good. 】
Zhou Ran smiled like a cat that had just eaten a fish.
Saturday arrived quickly.
After finishing lunch, Zhou Ran went out feeling full.
He would never sacrifice his health to look good in a formal dress.
Xia Chenggan saw him running outside and couldn't help but call out to him.
"where are you going?"
"Guan Yi invited me to a brand meet-and-greet."
Xia Chenggan couldn't stop it, so he could only offer a reminder.
"Go easy on me, be careful."
"I understand. Don't worry, I won't cause any deaths. I know what I'm doing."
Xia Chenggan nodded with a wry smile.
Don't believe him for a second. Once this kid gets excited, he doesn't care about human lives.
However, the people behind this brand are definitely not good people.
The evidence he had people collect could lead to someone going to jail if something really happens.
Let the kids play.
As long as you don't get angry with him, even if you ruin things, he'll still cover for you.
Xia Chenggan has been investigating something recently, which has led to many other issues, leaving him unable to spare any time for other matters.
Or maybe he'd like to go and have some fun too.
Zhou Ran went out happily.
Have someone deliver it to the brand event venue.
As soon as Zhou Ran got out of the car, a staff member greeted her with a big smile.
They probably thought it was some celebrity coming over.
Upon seeing that it was Zhou Ran, she asked in confusion.
Do you have an invitation from the brand?
"No, it was Mr. Guan Yi who invited me."
Zhou Ran smiled gently, and a young man at the back pushed through the crowd to get in.
"Are you Mr. Zhou Ran? I'm Xiao Lan, Guan Ge's assistant. Guan Ge specifically asked me to pick you up."
"Yes, please lead the way."
"Okay, please come with me. Brother Guan is waiting for you in the lounge."
Xiaolan warmly ushered the person inside.
The others curiously observed the two and began to whisper among themselves. Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
