Yi Tianran raised an eyebrow and counted on her fingers, "I know some who are dashing, polite, gentle and refined... and also—" cold and aloof, like Fu Yunchen.
The last one is, after all, the father of the child, so I won't introduce him.
"So many styles to choose from... It seems I have the potential to be a matchmaker!" Yi Tianran suddenly admired herself.
Xu Zhe was so angry he could hardly breathe, and he squeezed out a sentence through his back teeth, "I don't like men either!"
"Oh..." Yi Tianran looked at him strangely and sighed, "So you have asexuality! But don't be discouraged, there's still hope. I happen to know a great doctor. As long as you're not afraid to see a doctor, I can ask him to prescribe some medicine for you to try?"
Xu Zhe's fist hardened, and his face turned blue, which was much more interesting than his aloof demeanor at the beginning.
"Enough! Do you think that by changing your tactics and deliberately provoking my anger, I will look at you with new respect?" Xu Zhe's gaze fell on her with disgust, and he said mercilessly, "Let me tell you, even if I become a monk or a beggar for the rest of my life, I will never like someone like you."
Yi Tianran: "..." Narcissism is a disease, it needs to be cured!
If it weren't for the possibility that he might be involved in Su Mo's suicide, she wouldn't have bothered with him at all.
However, given how much he hates women and how intensely he reacts even to being touched, he probably isn't the man who got Su Mo pregnant.
But... this could also be a disguise he's wearing.
Yi Tianran knew that given Xu Zhe's aversion to her, she wouldn't get any results from him this time.
She immediately lost interest and looked away.
However, this expression took on a different meaning in Xu Zhe's eyes—
See!
Once her true colors were exposed, she was speechless. It turned out she had deliberately put on this act to get close to him; it was truly disgusting.
"Don't play the victim in front of me, I'm not falling for it." Xu Zhe sneered at her. "From now on, stay ten meters away from me when you see me, or don't blame me for being impolite."
After saying that, he left with a cold face.
Yi Tianran: "..." This guy, does he have a little too much of an opinion about himself?
What kind of parents raised such a confident child? Their upbringing is truly touching!
Yi Tianran really didn't want to see him again and immediately prepared to leave.
As soon as the cell phone rang in the distance, Xu Zhe answered it without hesitation.
Even if Yi Tianran didn't want to hear it, she still heard his voice. "Brother Qilin, you're so busy, how come you have time to call me?"
Xu Zhe's tone shifted from cold indifference to barely concealed excitement.
Yi Tianran was taken aback upon hearing this.
It wasn't his attitude that surprised me, but rather the way he called me "Brother Qilin".
Among the Yi family members she knew, there happened to be a cousin named Yi Qilin. Was it a coincidence, or... the same person?
"Don't worry, I'm doing fine at school, no one dares to bully me." Xu Zhe was as obedient as a little puppy at this moment. "I heard that the Yi family recently won a big real estate project. I saw the news. It must be all thanks to Brother Qilin! I knew you were the most capable."
His tone betrayed his admiration, as if the person opposite him was his role model.
"No one is approaching me, don't worry, I won't be fooled again..." After the call ended, Xu Zhe turned around and saw that Yi Tianran was still standing there, staring at him with a complicated expression.
"You were eavesdropping on my phone call?" Xu Zhe's face immediately darkened; his expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
Yi Tianran said in a calm tone: "Did you drive this road all by yourself? You were clearly too excited when you answered the phone, calling him 'brother' over and over again. Anyone who didn't know better would think you had a crush on him!"
Xu Zhe's face turned pale with anger in an instant. "What nonsense are you spouting! I only regard Brother Qilin as my most respected elder brother!"
It's strange, why did this woman repeatedly provoke his anger, and why did he have to explain so much to her?
He attributed all of this to his loathing for Yi Tianran, saying, "I warn you, if you dare to spread rumors, I will make you regret being born."
Yi Tianran smiled and deliberately provoked, "Alright! I'll be watching."
Originally, she didn't plan to get entangled with this person anymore, but since he had become involved with Yi Qilin, the situation was different.
Back in the dorm, Yi Tianran quickly contacted the three little ones. "My darlings, Mommy has another important task for you. If you do a good job this time, maybe I can finish the task early and go home to be with you. Are you happy?"
"Happy!" Huaihuai was overjoyed. "Mommy, I miss you so much that I can't sleep at night, unlike my brothers who sleep so soundly every day, snoring loudly."
Geng Geng: "???" Isn't this just a roundabout way of saying I'm heartless?
Huaihuai, you've changed. Who turned you into this effeminate, tea-like person?
He quickly expressed his heartfelt feelings to Yi Tianran, "Mommy, I miss you all the time."
"Mommy, you have no idea. While you were away these past few days, Daddy has been making fun of us all the time. He not only personally supervises our homework, but also keeps increasing the amount of classes. He's as ruthless as a devil." The little furball changed the subject to Fu Yunchen, adding fuel to the fire with his complaints.
Yi Tianran listened for a while, resting her chin on her hand, and retorted, "Nonsense, your daddy is much cuter than a devil."
The three little ones: "..." I suddenly feel like I've been force-fed dog food, what's going on?!
Yi Tianran coughed lightly, not knowing what had just happened, she had actually called Fu Yunchen cute.
She quickly shook her head and said seriously, "Let's get down to business! Go and investigate a boy named Xu Zhe for me. Most importantly, find out his relationship with the Yi family."
The three boys each asked, "Are the boys tall, handsome, and dashing?"
"Are you over 20? Are you the most popular 'puppy dog' type right now?"
"Mommy, if you're going to find us a stepfather, you have to tell us in advance! Otherwise, if Daddy finds out, it'll be a disaster!"
"What 'Shura field'?" Just then, Fu Yunchen's magnetic, flowing voice slowly poured out.
The three little ones widened their eyes instantly and held their breath.
Even through the screen, Yi Tianran could feel an ominous aura spreading. She didn't know why she felt guilty. "N-nothing, don't listen to their nonsense."
Fu Yunchen stared at her for a while, then looked down at the three little ones: "Will you tell me yourselves, or will I force you to tell me?"
The little furball pleaded desperately, "Daddy, please spare us! We really weren't discussing Mommy finding a younger man, and we firmly oppose anyone becoming our stepfather!"
"..." What a desperate act of selling one's mother to survive!
That's truly a heartwarming story!
