157: Chapter 157 I'm Back

A familiar voice crossed the air and entered the girl's ears.

The next second, the girl seemed startled, her mouth wide open, losing the ability to think for a moment.

"Xiao... Xiao Ran Ge Ge... is... is it really... you?" Liang Shiqing looked towards the door, her voice trembling, her tone revealing disbelief.

Xiao Ran gently closed the door, his voice soft as he said, "It's me! I'm back!"

"Xiao Ran Ge Ge! I thought you didn't want Shiqing anymore!" Liang Shiqing, like a moth to a flame, rushed straight towards the direction of the voice.

But she forgot that there was a large sofa between her and him!

Then!

"Ouch!"

She stumbled, tripping over, and fell face-down into the soft sofa, her legs pointing skyward.

It was as if she had formed a piece of art.

Seeing her fall, Xiao Ran quickly took a few strides over and turned her over: "Shiqing! Are you okay!"

What met his eyes was the girl crying and sniffling, looking haggard.

Xiao Ran's heart ached, and he quickly pulled her up, embracing her, his hands gently stroking her back.

"I'm sorry! Shiqing..."

On the slowly rebounding sofa cushion, faint traces of saliva and tears were clearly visible.

The girl cried tears of joy, a blush spreading across her cheeks.

Her eyes shone with a light of happiness, as if all worries had vanished.

"Xiao Ran Ge Ge... you... you're finally back! Shiqing has been waiting for you, she was about to die!"

[Detected strong emotional fluctuation from Liang Shiqing, lifespan +3 days!]

"!!!" Xiao Ran's spirit was invigorated.

He already gained lifespan!

Although it was a bit little at once, this method was abundant and satisfying!

"System, can I gain lifespan from both current and ex-girlfriends?"

[Yes! But there is a minimum standard!]

[The host must interact with girls above 90 points to gain lifespan!]

"Understood!" Xiao Ran nodded secretly.

Then his consciousness refocused on Liang Shiqing.

"Alright, alright! Don't cry! How could Shiqing possibly die!"

Xiao Ran patted her back repeatedly, as if comforting a child.

The more he comforted her, the faster the little train went, showing no signs of stopping~

"Wuwuwu~~"

One minute~

Two minutes~

Two and a half minutes~

Amidst Xiao Ran's comforting, the little train finally stopped~

Xiao Ran held the cute girl, smiling softly with downcast eyes: "Shiqing, it's only been a few days, and you've already lost weight!"

"Ah! Really?" The girl's voice was a bit hoarse, and she looked up, bewildered.

Xiao Ran's hands were not idle, gently pinching her bottom a few times, while also making a judgment with his mouth: "Hmm! Really! At least 3 jin lighter!"

How could the emotionally naive girl withstand his wantonness?

Immediately, her eyes showed shyness, and a few blushes appeared on her fair cheeks.

Her hands had nowhere to go, and her head was deeply buried in his chest~

"Sniff~ Sniff~"

The girl sniffed, and a faint scent of perfume mixed with a strong smell of medicine assailed her nostrils.

Her originally rosy complexion once again turned pale!

[~, lifespan +2 days!]

"Xiao Ran Ge Ge! You really are injured!" Liang Shiqing suddenly looked up.

Her eyes were misty, and an endless look of worry seemed to want to burst forth from her body.

'Damn it! I was careless again!'

He had forgotten that he was injured and smelled entirely of medicine!

Even spraying perfume was useless.

How could she, with her sensitive sense of smell, not detect it?

Xiao Ran looked at the girl in his arms, who was once again in tears, feeling annoyed, and could only comfort her verbally:

"It's nothing, just a minor injury! I applied some medicine!"

"Ah!" Liang Shiqing exclaimed.

She quickly struggled out of his embrace.

'Xiao Ran Ge Ge is injured, I can't let him hold me!'

Looking at the startled girl, Xiao Ran grinned: "Don't worry, Shiqing! I'm fine, if I were in trouble, I wouldn't have come back to you!"

Liang Shiqing clutched the corner of her clothes, not daring to look up.

If it weren't for her, Xiao Ran Ge Ge would probably still be recovering in the hospital, right?

'I'm the one who implicated Xiao Ran Ge Ge...'

She stood aside like a naughty kitten, her head drooping: "Xiao Ran Ge Ge... I'm sorry... Shiqing made you worry!"

"It's okay, it's okay! It's not your fault!" Xiao Ran pulled her down and sat beside her.

Her soft waist in his hand was incredibly smooth.

His warm hand roamed her waist, making the girl's lips redden without makeup, and her fair cheeks flush with rouge.

"Shiqing, can you tell me what happened these past few days?" Xiao Ran enjoyed the tender smoothness while changing the subject.

Liang Shiqing lowered her eyes, her voice as soft as rain: "Xiao Ran Ge Ge... these days... you... those... older sisters all came to take care of me..."

"Especially Qianqian... she stayed here every day to take care of me... Shiqing even lost her temper with her several times..."

As she spoke, her face gradually filled with guilt.

Listening to the girl's soft words, Xiao Ran's heart trembled slightly.

This silly girl actually called his ex-girlfriends 'older sisters'... Liang Shiqing!

You should know! You are the legitimate one!

Also, Xu Qianqian was so devoted to Shiqing...

She tirelessly helped her ex-boyfriend take care of his current girlfriend!

This kind of friendship~

It really made things difficult for him~

Perhaps, he should let Qianqian off this time?

Or, bring her into the game and have her act out a scene with him?

Xu Qianqian was indeed a rather special existence.

Besides Sun Xin颖, she was the only one who knew about his cancer.

If he hurt her again... Xiao Ran was momentarily unable to decide.

"Click~" The kitchen door suddenly opened!

"Shiqing, the food is heated up! You need to eat quickly this time! My hands are all blistered!" Xu Qianqian, a little huffily, carried the bowls and chopsticks into the living room.

However, upon entering the living room, the scene that met her eyes made her freeze for a few seconds.

One,

Two.

Three~

"Clatter~"

The food fell to the floor!

Xu Qianqian's eyes suddenly narrowed, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Her eyes were probably as wide as gongs!

A hint of indescribable bewilderment appeared in her eyes.

Her twin ponytails lay on her 'airport' chest, her hands frozen in mid-air, her mouth probably wide enough to fit an egg!

What did she see?!

Xiao Ran Ge Ge was actually sitting on the sofa, comfortably embracing Liang Shiqing!

"Xiao... Xiao Ran Ge Ge?" The loli tentatively called out.

Xiao Ran also looked straight at her, his eyes full of surprise.

He hadn't expected Xu Qianqian to be here now!

He hadn't even figured out how to face her yet!

For a moment.

He didn't know how many brain cells he had killed in his mind.

Finally, he decided... to try the effect first... "Miss, may I ask who you are?" Xiao Ran slowly spoke, confusion and bewilderment intertwined in his eyes.

As if he had truly forgotten who she was!
