"Shu? Shu Ran!!!" Cao Yun suddenly jumped up from the sofa, shocked as he exclaimed, "Damn, bro, you..."
Qin Xian shot him a glare and coldly said, "Sit down."
Cao Yun obediently sat back down but still couldn't hide his shock and excitement. "Hey, hey, hey, bro, how did you end up liking our class's Class Flower? And when did you two secretly get together? I didn't notice at all; you hid it too well."
Qin Xian scoffed and mocked, "Do you expect me to set off firecrackers and broadcast it to announce my relationship?"
"Who talks like that?" Cao Yun mumbled, not wanting to argue with him, and changed the subject.
"What I'm more concerned about is whether our Class Flower can handle you with that little frame of hers."
In Cao Yun's subjective view, his brother's type should be an elite woman.
A woman who could match him in the workplace and manage household chores efficiently in life.
Such a woman would be on the same level as him, providing plenty of topics to discuss.
Equally matched, neither superior nor inferior.
That would be the ideal match.
What kind of girl is Ke Shuran?
In Cao Yun's impression, Shu Ran was the kind of gentle Little Girl who was quiet and demure, like a harmless little white rabbit.
Such a girl is not suitable for Qin Xian.
No matter how you look at it, they don't match.
Cao Yun secretly defined it in his heart.
"What I need is a woman, not a rival," Qin Xian said lightly, his gaze indifferent as he looked at him.
Cao Yun was startled when he met his deep eyes. Wow, does this guy have mind-reading abilities? How does he know what I'm thinking?
"Keep your little thoughts to yourself. You don't need to worry about my affairs with her."
"And also, don't let this matter get out, especially don't let the old man know. Do you understand?"
Cao Yun nodded in agreement.
"Alright, you can go now. I have things to do," Qin Xian said after finishing his meal, starting to usher him away.
Cao Yun's eyes twitched slightly. What does this guy take him for?
Summoned and dismissed at will.
So annoying.
He cursed inwardly but efficiently began to clean up the dishes.
Haha.
Words can be deceptive.
This troublesome little sprite.
...
As night fell, the moonlight poured down onto the earth. The gentle summer breeze carried the fragrance of Crape Myrtle through the air.
Shu Ran walked slowly along the path leading to the entrance of the community, her bag slung over her shoulder.
Ten minutes ago, Qin Xian had called to let her know he was on his way.
Shu Ran responded briefly before hanging up.
Beside her, Shu Mother was engrossed in a television drama. Seeing Shu Ran's serious and reserved demeanor while on the phone immediately made her sense that something was up.
"Who called you? Are you going out with someone tonight?"
Shu Ran hadn't told Shu Mother about her situation with Qin Xian. Partly because she didn't want to worry her, and partly because she didn't know how to start, she kept it to herself.
So Shu Mother assumed that Qin Xian hadn't contacted her, and that there wasn't much progress between them, which is why she didn't press Shu Ran for details.
Now that she suddenly asked, if Shu Ran mentioned Qin Xian's name, Shu Mother would undoubtedly become overly excited.
Then when she returned home later, she would bombard Shu Ran with questions about her relationship with Qin Xian. If Shu Ran seemed indifferent, Shu Mother would start lecturing her, trying to brainwash her.
Thinking of this, she shivered and hurriedly lied, "Um... I'm going out with a friend..."
Shu Mother was suspicious and pressed, "Which friend? Male or female?"
"Um... it's Zhou Jiajia..." She was afraid that Shu Mother would ask further and expose her lie, so she quickly stood up and said, "She's almost here, Mom, I have to go."
After saying that, she rushed out of the house, fearing that if she took one more step slowly, Shu Mother would call her back for intense questioning.
Once she reached downstairs, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The evening breeze gently brushed against her, making Shu Ran's skirt sway lightly.
She stood at the entrance of the community, lowering her head to reply to a text from her best friend, who had turned into a resentful woman after being neglected by her boyfriend.
Zhou Jiajia: I'm going crazy, I really am! That jerk Zheng Tong hasn't even called me! I'm so mad; I won't talk to him anymore!
Zhou Jiajia: If I keep talking to him, I'm a pig! A big stupid pig! I'm going to block his number, block him on WeChat, block all contact methods! Let him never find me again!
Shu Ran: Really?
Then after a minute, Zhou Jiajia didn't reply.
After three minutes, Zhou Jiajia still hadn't replied.
After another two minutes, Zhou Jiajia finally responded.
Zhou Jiajia: It's fake, fake, fake.
Zhou Jiajia: So, what? I didn't say anything just now.
Zhou Jiajia: I was on the phone with Zheng Tong, busy right now, so let's talk later.
Women in love are always fickle.
Shu Ran chuckled softly, while a Black Audi slowly came to a stop in front of her.
A honk sounded.
Shu Ran looked up, and Qin Xian was getting out of the car.
Shu Ran quickly put away her phone and walked towards him, a wave of nervousness rising in her heart.
Qin Xian stood by the car, gentlemanly opening the door for her. After she settled in, he got into the car and slowly started the engine.
The atmosphere inside the car was a bit cold; Shu Ran sat stiffly in the passenger seat, her movements very rigid.
A pair of long fingers rested on the steering wheel, clearly defined knuckles slightly bent at this moment, quite attractive.
His gaze through the rearview mirror landed on Shu Ran, who had been wearing a serious expression since she got in the car.
He smiled slightly at the corner of his lips; her serious expression was simply too cute to resist teasing: "What's with that look of yours as if you're facing death?"
"Ah?"
"If there's something to say, just say it. With me here, what are you afraid of?"
It's precisely because you're here that I'm afraid.
Shu Ran muttered inwardly, but she couldn't show it on her face. She could only force a stiff smile and say, "No, nothing."
Qin Xian, however, was unconvinced and lightly changed the subject: "What kind of movies do you like?"
"Movies... I can watch anything..." Shu Ran replied perfunctorily with a dry laugh.
She thought to herself: The question isn't about what movies I like; it's about who I'm going to watch them with.
Qin Xian smiled knowingly and repeated in his cool voice, "Anything?"
"Yes, yes." Shu Ran didn't understand what he was laughing about, but she felt an ominous premonition rising within her.
Qin Xian fell silent then, driving quietly all the way, though the smile at the corners of his lips faded slightly.
Ten minutes later, the car came to a steady stop in front of the largest cinema in S City.
Shu Ran unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.
Qin Xian stood by the car, waiting for her to walk up to his side.
"Let's go." Qin Xian extended his hand, the meaning unclear.
Shu Ran was taken aback, standing still, unsure of how to respond.
As she hesitated, Qin Xian stepped forward and grabbed her hand. His hand was broad and strong, completely enveloping Shu Ran's delicate little hand. As his fingertips brushed against hers, a feeling called ambiguity quietly began to grow.
Shu Ran's face turned crimson instantly.
She struggled, but he held on tighter.
Qin Xian lowered his head, his deep eyes resting on her face, accompanied by a teasing voice, "Are you shy?"
Shu Ran suddenly covered her burning face, feeling so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Seeing her like this made Qin Xian laugh even more.
After he had his fill of laughter, he took her hand and said, "Let's go, the movie is about to start."
Shu Ran remained silent, keeping her head down as she walked quietly.
As they reached the upstairs, there seemed to be people already waiting at the cinema entrance. Upon seeing them, they hurried over.
"Qin Shao, you're here."
