Chapter Fifty It Was You All Along

  Qiao Ran looked at An Xin and said, "I'm eating here, it doesn't bother you, does it? You eat yours, I'll eat mine." Then he continued to look at the menu as if nothing had happened.

  Is this still not disturbing her? It's not like there aren't other boxes available, is it necessary?

  It seems like he offended her recently, not the other way around.

  He and Classmate Pangzi ate together, how could he swallow his food with him around.

  This person is quite shameless!

  "General manager, this... the private room next door is also empty. You can go there and eat alone, it will taste better. My friend and I eating together will disturb you." Anxin said with a humble tone and downcast eyes, trying to reason with him.

  Qiao Ran narrowed his eyes, "Don't you know that booking a private room alone costs money?"

  "You're not short of money, yet you still care about this little bit of cash?"

  Qiao Ran slapped the table, a menacing aura pounced on An Xin, and An Xin's scalp felt a chill.

  "Money isn't spent so lavishly either, if I don't save a bit, where will your salary come from?"

  “……”

  The veiled threat is back, and I've learned from today's conversation that Qiao Ran has another quality - being stingy.

  "Alright, I was wrong. As long as you don't mind, I don't either."

  Qiao Ran raised his hand and adjusted his suit, then lifted his chin slightly.

  She got up calmly, wanting to speak but hesitating, and hung it respectfully on the hook beside her. When she turned around, she found Qiao Ran's expression was calm and contented, feeling quite at ease with herself, and she wanted to slap that face wildly.

  The two of them were in a private room, silently looking at each other for twenty minutes. An Xin couldn't bear the suffocating atmosphere and took the initiative to speak up, "I'll make a phone call."

  Qiao Ran's eyes flashed with interest, the corners of his mouth curved into a very good-looking arc, nodded, and a strange current flashed through An Xin's mind.

  Slide the screen, find the phone number of Classmate Pàngzi, dial it out with peace of mind, and wait quietly.

  The melodious music came from a corner of the room, An Xin was startled, raised her head and began to search for the source of the music everywhere. The music had some bad thoughts, in this small room of only a few square meters, her goosebumps rose instantly.

  Qiao Ran stood on the other side with his hands in his sleeves, looking at her with a playful gaze.

  She got up calmly, walked to where she had hung her clothes earlier, lifted up Qiao Ran's suit, and pulled out the ringing phone. Her hand was shaking as if she was holding a time bomb. She paused for a moment, turned around, handed the phone to Qiao Ran, and asked with a straight face, "Director Qiao, what is this?"

  Cell phone.

  He carefully looked at the phone with a serious expression, as if he had just realized what this thing was called a mobile phone. Then he lowered his head and thought deeply about the problem. Qiao Ran smiled but didn't speak, took over the phone and slid to the missed calls page, "What's the point of being so tense?"

  He let out a sigh of relief and patted his thigh, "I get it." His eyes lit up, "It took half the day to figure out that you're actually related to Class Monitor Fatty. Why didn't you say so earlier? If I had known it was you..."

  Qiao Ran furrowed his brow, "This thinking is completely wrong, 'what if I had known earlier?'"

  The smiling person walked up to Qiao Ran, the corners of his mouth suddenly drooping, and let out a cold laugh. He flung Qiao Ran's suit at him, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have invited you to dinner. What a waste of my time, playing with me."

  Ran hastily to the entrance, put on shoes and went out.

  How ridiculous! Does she think I'm an idiot?

  Things have come to this, and she still doesn't know that the previous text messages were all sent by him, impersonating the fat class leader to chat with her enthusiastically. She has become his object of comfort and entertainment when he is lonely? Although she is not beautiful, she hasn't fallen to such a state.

  Qiao Ran took the initiative to catch up this time, and this situation was also within his calculations. Quarreling, getting angry, being sulky and whatnot could also deepen feelings, right? As long as he grasped it accurately, it was time to let her see her own heart clearly.

  Sitting in the taxi on the way back to school, An Xin felt suffocated and uncomfortable, thinking that it was all very unpleasant. For no reason at all, she had been schemed against by someone. Was he bored? Indeed, there was only one word to describe Qiao Ran - beast! She decided from now on to stay twenty feet away from him, not necessarily avoiding him completely but absolutely not sharing a room with him, and absolutely not speaking to him first!

  An Xin wore her pajamas and hugged her one-meter-tall teddy bear on the bed, starting to make pancakes. Three minutes on one side, five minutes on the other, she couldn't stop. Cai Cai dried her hair and snuggled into An Xin's blanket, kicking An Xin's bear to the other end of the bed as a footrest.

  An Xin frowned, how could she throw her bedfellow Bear Brother to the corner every night, it's too hateful, isn't this humiliating him, neglecting him and hurting him? An Xin sat up with a start and pulled Bear back again.

  Cai Cai pressed her down with one hand and threw the bear onto her own bed. The wind in the air made a whooshing sound, "If you have something to say, say it quickly; if you have farted, let it out quickly."

  An Xin saw that Mr. Xiong was beyond salvation and simply let go, lying down with his head tilted back, looking at Cai Cai with a complicated expression.

  "You say you like me, but why is it so strange?"

  "I find you strange."

  "Xiao Cai, let me tell you something, don't be surprised."

  Cai Cai murmured in agreement.

  "I told you before that I found a job thanks to Pangzi's help, but in fact, it was Qiao Ran who took care of everything. He tricked me into his company and made me his assistant. When he had nothing to do, he would use me as a plaything. How can I swallow this tone?" She said with indignation, these words had been stuck in her throat for half a day, and not saying them out loud made her feel uncomfortable!

  Cai Cai rolled her eyes and thought that An Xin had lost his mind. It turned out that even his little brain had been eaten by the dog.

  She already knew about this, and it's not like she needed to say anything. Her reaction was slow enough. She said that the fat class leader had found her a job, which made her and Duo suspicious from the start. Later, when they went to the fat class leader, they verified that he didn't know anything about it, and he hadn't helped An Xin at all. It was purely An Xin's fabrication, misidentifying someone. After this whole ordeal, anyone with discerning eyes could see who had been causing trouble, but this foolish person still didn't realize it. All she could do was sigh at how difficult Qiao's path to love was, as hard as ascending to the heavens!

  "You're really an idiot." Chacha knocked her on the head.

  An Xin let out a loud "Wah", embracing Cai Cai's waist, burying her head between her two peaks, and twisting desperately. "Hmph, dare to scold me as an idiot? Watch how I eat your tofu and drink your milk."

  Cai Cai was made to feel extremely uncomfortable, she pushed away his head and rubbed her chest, "If you were my child, I would have starved you to death a long time ago. How can you treat your mother's breasts like this? Are you satisfied now? What about your father?"

  “……”

  Aunt Cai, please don't be so serious all the time, okay? How can you say such things with a straight face and without batting an eyelid? You're making me, a poor woman confined to my boudoir, feel utterly miserable!
